Dr. Su, let's have a love affair

Ji Xingyuan then checked Gu's stocks on the computer. Sure enough, due to the negative news about Gu's hospital, Gu's stocks plummeted.

If the hot search continues for another two hours, it will continue to have an impact on Gu’s stock.

Gu Jingzhou was mentally prepared that Gu’s stock might fall temporarily.

However, he just wanted to use this to morally blackmail Su Xiaoxiao, make her feel guilty about him and Gu, and then let him control her.

He didn't intend to let the trending search stay online for that long.

He knew that even if he wanted to hang up the trending search for a longer time, his father and the shareholders would intervene and ask him to find a way to remove the trending search immediately.

So, less than half an hour after the hot search, Gu Bodao and shareholders called him all over the phone.

Everyone came to ask him why he allowed such a hot search that was unfavorable to the Gu family to remain on the Internet?

What he meant was that he was questioning the crisis handling capabilities of him as the president and the group's public relations department.

After all, it was something I did with selfish motives and instructions behind the scenes.

Gu Jingzhou was feeling pent up in anger, and it was not easy for him to lash out at these people.

After the hot search had been on for half an hour, he felt that the effect was almost there and it was time to cut losses, so he instructed He Bin to contact the website to remove the hot search.

After some negotiation with the website, He Bin reported to him with his head down, "Mr. Gu, we can't remove that trending search. They say a third party with deep connections is involved, so we can't remove it right now."

"What do you mean by a third party with a strong background? Go check it out for me right now!"

It was beyond Gu Jingzhou's expectation that other people were interested in intervening in such a trivial matter at Gu's Hospital.

He had a pair of sharp black eyes, with a hint of gloom.

If this was done by one of Gu's competitors, he swore that once the matter was resolved, he would make the other party pay a heavy price.

"Yes, Mr. Gu, I'll check it out right away."

He Bin took the order tremblingly, but after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find anything. Gu Jingzhou scolded him and asked him to continue searching.

As a result, Gu’s stock quickly lost hundreds of millions of dollars in market value, and the market value is still evaporating.

Shareholders on the board held an emergency shareholders' meeting in the afternoon regarding the matter.

At the meeting, a pot-bellied, elderly director surnamed Chen impatiently questioned Gu Jingzhou, "Jingzhou, when will this trending search be removed? Every extra minute it stays up, Gu's company loses hundreds of millions. That's all wasted money!"

"If you can't even handle a crisis like this, then I think you should give up the position of CEO and let someone more capable take it. Don't you agree?"

"I think Mr. Chen is right. Jingzhou is still too young. He hasn't even gotten married yet. To put it bluntly, he hasn't even grown all his hair yet. How can anyone accept him as the CEO?"

Mr. Chen's words were seconded by another shareholder.

Gu Jingzhou was wearing a black suit, a dark shirt and a tie, and sat solemnly at the head of the conference table.

Listening silently to the harsh remarks of these old guys.

A strong and powerful hand with bulging veins was placed on the thigh and had been quietly clenched into a fist. The neatly trimmed and not long nails dug into the flesh of the palm.

But he didn't feel any pain, only anger.

"I think now is not the time to discuss who will be the president, but when will this crisis be resolved?" Seeing that the meeting was tense, Director Fang, who had a good personal relationship with Gu Bodao, said in a gentle tone.

Then he looked at Gu Jingzhou and said, "Jingzhou, I think you should give everyone a definite answer. How long will it take for this trending search to be removed? That way, everyone can feel more at ease."

"About two hours." Gu Jingzhou glanced indifferently at the shareholders present and gave a time in a low and perfunctory voice.

In fact, he was not sure.

There are many families and large groups with strong backgrounds in Haicheng, and there are several that are comparable to the Gu family.

And there are also some whose strength is obviously greater than Gu's.

He currently has no idea who is behind this trending search and trying to take advantage of it to attack the Gu family. He can only wait for the results of He Bin's investigation.

"Two more hours?"

When the pot-bellied Mr. Chen heard what Gu Jingzhou said, it seemed like he had heard a huge joke.

He asked sarcastically, "Do you know how much Gu's stock will continue to fall in two hours? Jing Zhou, you are not kidding us uncles, are you?"

"However much Gu's stock price fell today, I, Gu Jingzhou, will make it rise again in the future!"

Although Gu Jingzhou felt a little guilty at this time, he still exuded a cold and stern aura of a ruthless man who didn't talk much.

"In the future? How long is in the future? Three years, five years? You're young, you can afford to wait, but us old guys can't!"

"Yes, what we want to talk about today is not the future, but how the Gu Group should resolve this crisis today. Jing Zhou, you can't avoid the topic!"

……

At this emergency shareholders' meeting, Gu Jingzhou was under pressure from several old shareholders, and time passed slowly and agonizingly.

In response to their questions and challenges, he briefly stated his attitude and did not reply with any more useless nonsense.

Because there are still shareholders who, for Gu Bodao's sake, will help him to mediate and ease the tense atmosphere between them and him.

They wouldn't really force him to resign as president immediately.

As long as he is still the president of Gu Group, Gu Jingzhou believes that he will be able to make up for and resolve all the losses and crises that Gu Group is facing today.

So, although he was annoyed and angry, he was not panicked.

"Oh no! Gu's market value has evaporated by three billion!"

While several shareholders were still making things difficult for Gu Jingzhou, one of them suddenly spoke loudly while looking at his phone.

His words immediately made the air in the conference room stagnate for a moment. All the quarreling voices stopped at once, and all shocked eyes were directed at him.

Not until they gradually realized what was happening did they nervously pick up their phones to check.

Gu Jingzhou was also shocked.

He predicted that Gu's might suffer a small loss, a few hundred million at most. After all, Gu's Hospital was just a unit under the Gu Group and was not a major one at all.

Su Xiaoxiao only slapped Xia Xueer, it wasn't serious.

He didn't expect that he would ultimately underestimate the impact of negative network effects on a company.

They also underestimated the negative and intense emotions that netizens would have towards medical disputes.

If we underestimate and neglect it even more, someone will interfere.

They made a fuss out of this little thing, letting it continue to ferment online for several hours, causing such dire consequences for the Gu family.

Gu Jingzhou lowered his head and looked at the information on his mobile phone about the continued plummet of Gu's stock. His black eyes were as cold as polar ice, and he secretly bit his back teeth hard.

The bulging veins on his forehead seemed like the suppressed anger in his heart was trying hard to find an outlet.

The Gu Group had been stable for a long time and had never experienced such a big market turmoil.

Now, in just half an afternoon, three billion has been lost, and the losses are still continuing.

After a noisy discussion in the conference room, Mr. Chen, who disliked Gu Jingzhou the most, took the lead in bringing up the issue of replacing the president again.

He said sternly, "Jing Zhou, your incompetence has caused Gu's company so much loss. You must resign as CEO! If you don't resign voluntarily, we will vote to remove you today!"
