Rebirth of the Scumbag and the Retribution of the White Lotus

Late at night, the lights in Zhao Shufang's office were still on. Outside, the city had quieted, the traffic thinning, only the occasional passing car breaking the stillness. She sat at her desk, her face unfazed by any sign of fatigue, her expression growing more resolute. Although Shen Yu's counterattack had caught her off guard for a moment, she now had complete control of the situation.

"Mr. Zhao, we have achieved initial results in market control." Zheng Kai reported while standing aside.

Zhao Shufang nodded slightly, her eyes still fixed on the document in her hands. "Although Shen Yu's counterattack in public opinion is strong, judging by the attitudes of external partners, his control is gradually loosening. Now, the most critical thing is to maintain our advantage in technology and cut off his subsequent capital flow."

Zheng Kai continued, "Yes, we have gradually occupied part of the technology market with the support of Antuo Group. This is not only a counterattack against Shen Yu, but also lays a solid foundation for our subsequent development."

"Very good." Zhao Shufang slowly closed the document in her hand, her eyes sharp. "We must seize this opportunity and defeat him in one fell swoop."

At this moment, her phone suddenly vibrated. Zhao Shufang looked down and saw that it was Wang Zhen calling. She pressed the answer button and heard Wang Zhen's urgent voice: "Mr. Zhao, the situation has changed."

"What's going on?" Zhao Shufang frowned slightly and immediately became alert.

"Shen Yu has reorganized his funding chain. He has increased capital inflows through new methods and has begun increasing investment in the domestic market. Even more worrying is that he has begun contacting some influential shareholders, trying to unite them to suppress us."

Zhao Shufang's expression changed. "What do you mean? He's planning to join forces with the shareholders to attack us?"

"Yes." Wang Zhen's voice was a little suppressed. "Most of these shareholders have had a cooperative relationship with Shen Yu in the past, and they support his plan. If these shareholders unite, the situation may become very complicated."

Zhao Shufang was silent for a moment, then spoke calmly, "This isn't surprising. Although Shen Yu has always publicly claimed to be operating independently, the shareholder power behind him has never been fully exposed. Now, he's chosen to unite with these shareholders, clearly trying to force us to make concessions."

Wang Zhen asked with some concern: "Mr. Zhao, how should we deal with this?"

A cold look flashed in Zhao Shufang's eyes. "We can't just sit there and wait for death. Shen Yu is clearly planning to increase his investment this time, intending to suppress our capital flow. But he doesn't know that we have already made advance arrangements in key areas."

"What does Mr. Zhao mean?" Wang Zhen asked.

"Let's do the opposite," Zhao Shufang said in a cold tone. "Shen Yu intends to suppress us through the joint efforts of shareholders. But if we can quickly capture more market share, stabilize existing partnerships, and effectively counterattack with the technical support of the Antuo Group, what will happen even if Shen Yu unites with the shareholders?"

Wang Zhen pondered for a moment. "You mean we should further increase investment in the domestic market and use our technological advantages to attract more partners, so that Shen Yu's shareholders can see that his plan cannot be realized?"

"That's right." Zhao Shufang nodded gently. "Moreover, not only that, we also need to counter some of his actions at the financial level. Although Shen Yu has ample funds, there are loopholes in his capital chain. If we can find the right opportunity to strike, Shen Yu's situation will become even more difficult."

Wang Zhen suddenly understood. "I understand. Next, I will work closely with the company's finance department to identify the weak links in Shen Yu's capital chain and find a breakthrough for counterattack as soon as possible."

"Yes," Zhao Shufang said decisively. "At the same time, the public relations department must intensify its efforts to expose the collusion between Shen Yu and its shareholders. We need to let the market and the public know that this underlying game is no longer just a competition between two companies; it concerns the future of the industry."

"Okay, Mr. Zhao. I'll arrange it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Shufang stood up and walked to the window, gazing out at the still-bright cityscape. Her heart remained unwavering. Shen Yu's counterattack certainly threatened her current situation, but it was also the opportunity she had been waiting for. The perfect time for her to strike back would be when he let his guard down and underestimated her strength.

"Are you ready?" she asked Zheng Kai.

Zheng Kai nodded seriously, "Everything is ready. The next step is to see how we attack."

"Okay." Zhao Shufang took a deep breath, her eyes determined. "Every move Shen Yu makes in this game will become his fatal weakness. We are already in the most advantageous position in the situation."

A few days later, Zhao Shufang's plan gradually unfolded. By partnering with Antuo Group, she not only secured a dominant position in the domestic technology market but also leveraged its vast industrial resources to attract significant investment for her company. Meanwhile, her public relations team diligently exposed the entanglement between Shen Yu and shareholders, sparking widespread public attention.

Meanwhile, Wang Zhen and his financial team had discovered some loopholes in Shen Yu's funding chain. These loopholes weren't significant, but if exploited at the right moment, they could severely impact Shen Yu's cash flow. Wang Zhen had already begun making arrangements, ready to strike at the most critical moment.

Shen Yu, unaware of his predicament, continued to increase shareholder investment, attempting to stabilize the situation by securing external capital. However, as Zhao Shufang had anticipated, this investment not only failed to stifle Zhao Shufang's counterattack but instead plunged him into even more complex financial difficulties.

Zhao Shufang knew the decisive battle was not far away. Every time Shen Yu counterattacked, she became more certain that victory was destined to be hers.

"Mr. Zhao, we will definitely win this battle." Zheng Kai looked at Zhao Shufang, his eyes full of confidence.

Zhao Shufang smiled slightly, a determined light flashing in her eyes: "In this game, there can only be one winner, and that winner is destined to be me."
