Chapter 194 Something happened
"beep……"
The call connected.
He held his phone, listening intently to the beeping sound coming from it.
After only three rings, the call connected, and Song Xingwen's voice came from the phone: "President Chen, the news has already appeared in major media outlets, and Zhou Jianye must already know about it."
Wenren Chen listened to the conversation on the phone and said, "Investigate thoroughly what Zhou Jianye did not do for the past thirty years."
"all."
Song Xingwen paused slightly, then said, "Okay."
"Then I'll report to you on the work I've done over the past two days."
"Ah."
Soon, Song Xingwen's voice came through the phone, reporting on his work. Wenren Chen held the phone, listening to the reports, his eyes fixed on the now quiet small county town.
Here, there is no dazzling hustle and bustle of big cities, no endless desires and climbing; what it has are the mottled marks left by time, giving it a unique charm.
Unparalleled.
……
Good city.
It got much quieter after 10 p.m., but there were still quite a few cars outside.
It seems the sounds of this city won't disappear until midnight.
At this moment, at Jinrong Club.
A VIP private room.
Zhou Jianye and several other executives sat in the private room on leather sofas, chatting and laughing.
Just as they were having a pleasant conversation, his cell phone suddenly rang.
Zhou Jianye stopped talking, took out his phone to check the caller ID, and then said to the person next to him, "President Li, I'll go out to take this call and I'll be back in a bit."
"Okay okay."
Zhou Jianye took his phone and left the private room. He walked a little further away and answered the call: "What is it?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than an urgent voice came through the phone: "Mr. Zhou, something terrible has happened! The accident that happened to the workers two months ago has been exposed by the media!"
"what?"
Zhou Jianye's expression changed instantly, and his aura became extremely terrifying, as if he were about to erupt in fury at any moment.
The assistant said, "I don't know what's going on, but suddenly the media is full of reports about the accident that happened to our workers two months ago. Now it's dominating the front page of various media outlets. First, a lot of people are discussing it, and the topic is very popular."
"The public relations department just called me to tell me about this. They are handling it urgently, but they can't suppress it in time. I just checked our market value, and it dropped by five points."
When Zhou Jianye heard the five dots, his vision went black.
Five points, tens of billions.
He gripped his phone tightly and shouted angrily, "Tell the public relations department to suppress this news immediately, no matter what method they use!"
"Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, a quick look flashed across Zhou Jianye's eyes, and he strode back to the private room.
Upon seeing him enter, the people inside immediately said, "Mr. Zhou, come in, come in, we..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Jianye quickly said, "President Li, President Wei, President Tao, I have some urgent business to attend to and need to return to Yunzhou City immediately. I'll take my leave now and come to apologize in person next time."
After saying that, he left quickly, without giving the executives any chance to react.
After he left, one of the bosses' phones rang.
The boss picked up his phone to answer the call, then frowned: "Really?"
"I see."
Without knowing what the other party said, the boss hung up the phone with a thoughtful expression.
As the CEO hung up the phone, the other two CEOs' phones rang one after another.
They looked at each other, then picked up their phones to answer calls.
Soon, they all looked surprised.
After hanging up the phone, they looked at each other, and then one of the bosses spoke first: "Has something happened to Jiancheng Company?"
Upon hearing this, the other two bosses nodded in agreement.
Then, one person said, "This news came suddenly; I don't know what happened."
When he said that, another person said, "What else could it be? It happened so suddenly, someone must have sabotaged it."
The business world is like a battlefield; deceit and treachery are commonplace. You resort to underhanded tactics, and I'll use dirty tricks—it's all perfectly normal.
Now that Zhou Jianye's company has suddenly been exposed to bad news, it is highly likely that it has been targeted by someone.
"Let's see how President Zhou gets through this crisis."
Hearing him say that, the other two laughed: "Let's see how he solves it."
After leaving the private room, Zhou Jianye asked his assistant to book the fastest flight back to Yunzhou City. Just as he hung up the phone, another call came in.
Upon seeing the incoming call appear on the screen, a hint of impatience flashed across Zhou Jianye's eyes.
However, he still answered the phone: "Huilan."
"Jianye, I just received some very bad news. The accident that happened to the workers has been exposed. Are you aware of it?"
As soon as the call connected, Sun Huilan's anxious and worried voice came through.
Zhou Jianye frowned, a sinister look appearing on his face: "I know. I just had my assistant book a plane ticket. I'm going back to Yunzhou City immediately."
This is a serious matter and must be dealt with immediately, otherwise it will cause great damage to the company.
"You...return to Yunzhou City immediately?"
Sun Huilan didn't expect Zhou Jianye to return so quickly.
"Yes, this is a difficult matter to handle; I must go back in person."
After asking, Sun Huilan knew what Zhou Jianye was thinking. She was just worried about his health. He had just returned from abroad and hadn't had a chance to rest before he was busy again. She was afraid he wouldn't be able to rest tonight.
As Zhou Jianye's wife and someone who loves him, she was naturally very worried.
Hearing Zhou Jianye's reply, Sun Huilan said, "You go back first, I'll come back with the two children later, and we'll solve it together."
Sun Huilan is not a stay-at-home mom who does nothing but take care of the children. She also works at the company as the finance manager, in charge of all the company's money.
She knows the company very well.
Moreover, it was she who had someone handle the accident that happened two months ago.
After all, they lost money.
As Zhou Jianye spoke, he walked out of the clubhouse and quickly got into his car. Hearing Sun Huilan's words, his eyes flashed quickly, and he said, "You stay in Shancheng to handle Mom's matter. This matter must be handled well."
Zhou Jianye's voice was noticeably heavier.
Clearly, both ends are important.
A flash of disdain and disgust crossed Sun Huilan's eyes; she had no desire to stay in Shancheng.
Shancheng is a place filled with bad memories. If it weren't for the potential benefits and value there, she wouldn't want to set foot there at all.
But upon hearing Zhou Jianye's words, she paused for a moment and said, "I'll stay in Shancheng."
"You handle that, I'll handle this."
"Yes, my phone is ringing."
After saying that, Zhou Jianye hung up the phone and answered the incoming call.
In the hotel, Sun Huilan listened to the rapidly changing busy tone on her phone, her heart pounding, her expression shifting repeatedly.
This Shancheng is truly no good place!
As soon as she returned here, everything seemed wrong; she was practically her nemesis!
Thinking about it, Sun Huilan's eyes were filled with anger, her face turned from green to white, then white to purple, looking very ferocious.
Click.
A room door opened.
Wearing slippers, yawning, and with messy makeup, Zhou Jiali emerged from inside, her hair disheveled. As soon as she came out, she saw Sun Huilan clutching her phone, her face extremely terrifying, like a furious weasel ready to retaliate at any moment. Zhou Jiali instantly screamed "Ah!" and pressed herself against the wall, too afraid to move.
Upon hearing her voice, Sun Huilan frowned and looked over. After seeing Zhou Jiali, the ferocious distortion on her face gradually subsided.
Seeing that her expression gradually returned to her usual gentle motherly demeanor, but she still looked unwell, Zhou Jiali clutched her chest and exhaled, saying, "Mom, who upset you? You look so scary!"
Zhou Jianye started from scratch, but of course, he also relied on connections and networks, and these connections and networks were from Sun Huilan's family.
Sun Huilan's family is very powerful.
It can be said that without Sun Huilan's family, Zhou Jianye would not be where he is today.
Of course, Zhou Jianye is indeed intelligent.
With connections, influence, intelligence, and ambition, Zhou Jianye's career has flourished over the past two decades, and he has been able to resolve any issues that arise along the way.
But things are going wrong one after another, like they are now.
This is the first time.
Therefore, Zhou Jiali had never seen Sun Huilan look like that just now; she seemed like a completely different person.
She was indeed frightened by Sun Huilan's terrifying appearance.
Seeing Zhou Jiali's frightened appearance, Sun Huilan's anger subsided considerably.
She walked over to Zhou Jiali, smoothed her messy hair, and said gently, "Something happened, but it's nothing. Are you awake? Are you hungry? Mom will have someone bring you some food."
Zhou Jiali loves to play and has a wild time; her schedule is completely upside down.
But Sun Huilan doted on her and let her do whatever she wanted without saying anything, which made Zhou Jiali more and more unruly.
Seeing that Sun Huilan's expression had completely returned to normal, and there was no trace of the terror she had just displayed, Zhou Jiali relaxed, went directly to the coffee table, picked up an apple from the fruit plate, took a bite, and said, "What happened? I'll help you!"
As she spoke, she crunched on the apple in her mouth.
Zhou Jiali wasn't just saying that casually; she could genuinely help because she had many fair-weather friends.
These cronies often do things for her.
When Sun Huilan heard this, she wanted to say no, what help could a child like her possibly offer?
But as she was about to speak, a thought flashed through her mind, and the next moment, her gaze towards Zhou Jiali was filled with boundless affection.
"Carrie, now that you mention it, Mom does have something she needs your help with."
