Chapter 4 — Husband Announces Stepson as Heir, And I Reach Top 47 Global Assets
Luc Thanh Vien's happy mood lasted less than a week. Since the "Phong Tri Plan" project was unilaterally terminated by partners, bad news has continued to come like an avalanche. First are the raw material suppliers. Luc Thi's three largest core material suppliers almost simultaneously announced to stop supplying for the following reasons:
“Adjusting the production line.”
These three companies have cooperated with Luc Thi for seven or eight years. The relationship has always been extremely stable. Luc Thanh Vien immediately sent the purchasing director to negotiate. The other person's attitude was very polite. But no one was willing to give in.
“General Manager Luc, we have no other choice.”
“Their production line has actually stopped.”
“They said they need a comprehensive upgrade, it will take at least another six months to restore operations.”
The purchasing director returned to report with a sweat on his head. Luc Thanh Vien grabbed the report and smashed it straight into his face.
“Three companies upgrading their lines at the same time?”
“Do you think I'm an idiot?”
“Go investigate again for me!”
“Even if I dig three meters of ground, I still have to find the cause!”
Right after that. It's the bank's turn. A huge loan from Luc Thi Group is about to come due. The company needs to carry out loan extension procedures. This should have been decided in advance. But this time, Director Wang of the bank's credit department, who had always been obsequious to him, started talking in an official manner.
“General Manager Luc, it's not that I don't want to help you.”
“It's just that the above policy has recently become tighter.”
"For businesses with high debt ratios like yours, risk control requirements are also increased."
“Director Vuong, we have cooperated for so many years.”
“You tell me the truth.”
Luc Thanh Vien tried to suppress his anger. On the other end of the line, Director Vuong was silent for a few seconds before saying:
“The truth is... I advise you to prepare early.”
He immediately hung up. Luc Thanh Vien held the cold stethoscope in his hand. Feeling the cold for the first time. Panic began to spread throughout the company. Some key technical personnel suddenly resigned. Some large customers who were in the process of negotiating suddenly became vague and no longer as enthusiastic as before. The company's stock price also continued to plummet inexplicably. In just half a month. The capitalization value of Luc Thi Group has evaporated by nearly 10,000,000,000 yuan. Luc Thanh Vien was so busy that he was scratching his head. Every day I can't sleep three hours. He finally realized. This is not a coincidence. It was an extremely precisely calculated and fatal hunt aimed at Luc Thi. He lists all possible opponents. Truong Thi Group? Ly Thi Group? Or is it a foreign competitor? He went crazy in meetings. Continuously develop response plans. Use all relationships to inquire about information. But every clue eventually leads to a dead end. No one knows who is behind. That invisible hand was so strong that it made people suffocate. It precisely squeezed each of Luc Thi's blood vessels. Tighten it little by little. Anya looked at Luc Thanh Vien increasingly emaciated and impatient. She no longer dares to act like she did before. Some repeatedly offered to let his father and brother come into the company to help.
"Thanh Vien, my father has been in business for many years in the countryside and is very experienced."
“Let him come help you.”
For the first time, Luc Thanh Vien shouted directly at her face.
“What does a person who opens a grocery store know?”
“Don't come here and cause more trouble for me!”
An Nha was scolded until her eyes turned red. She hugged Luc Tu Hao who was frightened and cried, feeling sorry for herself and ran back to her room. Luc Thanh Vien rubbed his hair vigorously. Tired of falling onto the sofa in the large but cold living room. The giant crystal chandelier on the ceiling emitted cold light. First time. He started to remember me. Remember the woman who, no matter how late, always leaves a light for him. Prepare a cup of hot tea. Remember the woman who calmly sat across from him every time the company was in crisis. Clearly analyze the situation. Then tell him:
“Don't be afraid, I'm here.”
A wild thought appeared in his mind for the first time. Does all of this... Have anything to do with me? But very soon after that. He made fun of himself again. No way. What kind of bravery does a woman who walks away empty-handed have? Surely some opponent wants to take advantage of the chaos in his rear to take advantage of the situation. He consoled himself like that. But didn't know. What he calls "the rear"... is the real dragon's den.
