Chapter 10 — It's Too Late to Kneel Down

After a few days, I heard from my assistant that Chu Tung Dan had already fired Ly Mo Suong. It was said that the day he was fired, Ly Mo Suong made noise in the company lobby for a long time, and was finally carried out by a group of security guards. As expected. A person who does not know how to love himself, how can he get the love of others? Being thrown away like a pile of trash is completely normal. 9 After the divorce news was officially announced, stock prices were certainly affected. Thi Chu and Do Thi have cooperated for many years, at least a dozen projects they have jointly owned. As soon as the marriage relationship was broken, all of these projects were immediately suspended, pending re-evaluation. Investor confidence was hit hard, and the stock prices of both companies continued to decline. But for me, this is just a short-term fluctuation, nothing to worry about. Because from a very early age I was aware that I couldn't hang myself from the same tree. Although cooperation with Chu Thi is important, placing all bets on a marriage is the biggest foolishness in business. Over the past two years, I have always expanded the scope of cooperation. European and American markets, new energy, smart technology... Do Thi Group's vision has long been no longer limited to the small garden shared with Chu Thi. The previous negotiation project in London was the most important move among them. That is the exclusive cooperation right in the Asia-Pacific region of a leading European energy corporation. It took me a full eight months to negotiate, during which time I flew to London dozens of times, before we finally succeeded. Right after a week since the divorce news was revealed, Do Thi Group officially announced this cooperation project. As soon as the news came out, Do Thi's stock price immediately stabilized. In just three days, the stock not only made up for the decline of the previous few days, but also increased by three percent. Recalling the aggressive and intimidating behavior of the senior shareholders the other day, I clearly used the toughest and most effective way to slap them in the face. On the contrary, Chu Thi's side was not so lucky. They did not have a diversification arrangement like Do Thi Group, nor did they have an executive who laid out the exit route early like me. The cooperation project was suspended, investors' confidence collapsed, and stock prices plummeted. In just a few short days, the capitalization value of Chu Thi Group evaporated billions of yuan. So, they had to convene a board meeting overnight. During the meeting, the atmosphere was extremely tense. Several major shareholders pounded the table and without any respect began to condemn Chu Tung Dan.

“Because your personal matters affect the whole company, who bears this responsibility?”

“Capitalization value has evaporated, how do you explain it?”

“We need an explanation.”

Chu Tung Dan sat in the chair of the meeting table. Faced with the rotating questioning of shareholders, his face turned gray and he did not say a word. Even some of his allies who once supported him, after witnessing the stock plunge, began to lean toward the wind. In the face of interests, there is no absolute gratitude. Some of them are there to protect themselves, some are to profit during the chaos, some are simply seeing the change clearly. change of wind direction. When the wall falls, everyone pushes. Chu Tung Dan experienced for the first time the feeling of being alienated by his peers. It is said that those days he locked himself in his office, did not see anyone, did not eat or drink. But those things no longer have anything to do with me. 10 On a foggy, rainy night. I was looking at documents in the office of the Do family's old villa, when the butler knocked on the door.

“Miss, Mr. Chu is asking to meet you at the gate.”
