Chapter 273 Sudden Changes, the Su Group's Hidden Agent
Jiang Chen originally planned to become familiar with the Su family before bringing Su Qing back to the village to continue the construction work.
But now, seeing how warmly his father-in-law and mother-in-law are getting together, calling him eight times a day to urge him to "come home more often," he feels too embarrassed to just pack up and leave.
Well, since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it. I'll just treat it as a vacation and enjoy a few days of paid leave at my father-in-law's house, where I can be waited on hand and foot.
The sun was shining brightly that afternoon. Jiang Chen, having finished his lunch, was strolling around the Su family's huge courtyard, which was as big as a park, to digest his food.
Suddenly, a sharp screech of brakes sounded at the entrance of the manor.
Jiang Chen looked up and saw Su Tianhao's black Rolls-Royce Phantom violently slam into the yard in an almost drifting manner.
Before the car had even come to a complete stop, the driver tumbled and scrambled out of the driver's seat, rushed to the back seat, and opened the car door.
Su Tianhao practically leaped out of the car. He didn't even bother to straighten his slightly disheveled tie. His face was ashen, and he hurried toward the study in the villa.
That face was at least ten times uglier than when Jiang Chen drove the truck here yesterday.
Jiang Chen became interested, feeling that there was something interesting to watch.
Su Tianhao entered the study, and before he could even close the door properly, a loud crash of shattering porcelain came from inside!
"Bang!"
Judging from the sound, it must be that valuable blue-and-white porcelain ashtray that has been damaged again.
Su Tianhao's roar came from under the study door, filled with rage and bewilderment: "Withdrawing investment?! What right do they have to withdraw their investment at this critical juncture?!"
"Is the loan agreement we signed with the bank just a piece of paper?! It's written in black and white, and they just stop it like that?!"
"Immediately! Call everyone in the legal department for a meeting! Sue them! I'll sue them until they go bankrupt!"
The servants in the villa were so frightened by this sudden outburst of rage that they didn't dare to breathe.
Hearing the commotion, Su Qing hurriedly ran out of her room:
"Dad, what's wrong? What happened?"
Jiang Chen, with his hands in his pockets, leisurely followed behind.
The two stood at the door of the study, just in time to hear the conversation inside.
Su Tianhao was on the phone with a senior executive at the company, his voice filled with barely suppressed anger and exhaustion.
"...General Manager Wang, General Manager Li, and General Manager Zhang, all three of them submitted their resignations last night. Yes! They're the three people in charge of the core scheduling system for the 'Star Hub' project!"
The entire tech team is paralyzed! I checked, it's Tianhong Group! It's that bastard surnamed Chen! He poached all our people with triple salaries and some bullshit stock options!
"What?!" Su Qing's face turned deathly pale upon hearing the words "Star Nexus".
She knew better than anyone what this project meant to the Su Group.
Su Tianhao hung up the phone, feeling as if all his strength had been drained away, and slumped heavily into the huge boss's chair. He saw his daughter and Jiang Chen standing at the door, his bloodshot eyes filled with despair.
"Dad, what happened?" Su Qing rushed in, her voice trembling with tears, and grabbed Su Tianhao's arm.
Su Tianhao closed his eyes in pain and explained the whole story in a hoarse voice.
It turns out that in recent years, the Su Group has been putting all its efforts into developing a province-wide smart logistics network project called "Star Hub".
This project is the most important core strategy for the Su family for the next five to ten years, and Su Tianhao has already invested more than 5 billion yuan in it.
Just as the project was about to enter the most critical testing phase, a conglomerate from another province, the "Tianhong Group," with assets worth hundreds of billions, suddenly intervened.
First, they used their connections to forcefully cut off all of the Su Group's upstream equipment suppliers; then, using unknown means, they turned several major banks that had cooperated with the Su family for more than a decade against them, causing the banks to unilaterally stop providing further loans.
Now, the most fatal blow has come—Tianhong Group has poached several key technical personnel responsible for the core scheduling system of this project with high salaries and empty promises!
The entire "Star Hub" project immediately became an unmanageable mess.
"It's all over...it's all over..."
Upon hearing this, Su Qing burst into tears. Although she wasn't involved in the company's management, she knew that if this project failed, the Su Group would not only lose the billions of yuan invested upfront, but more terrifyingly, the company's cash flow would be completely severed!
At that time, not only will he lose his position as the richest man in the provincial capital, but the entire Su Group may also be swallowed up by Tianhong Group in this storm, ultimately ending up in bankruptcy and liquidation!
Su Tianhao leaned weakly against the boss's chair, looking as if all his energy had been drained away, and he had aged ten years in an instant.
He had been a seasoned businessman for decades, weathering countless storms, but this time was different. His opponent was well-prepared, each move deadly, clearly aiming to crush him completely, giving him no chance to recover.
The entire study was shrouded in gloom and deathly silence. Su Tianhao's despair and Su Qing's weeping made the atmosphere extremely oppressive.
however.
Standing at the door, Jiang Chen looked at the tragic scene before him, but instead of feeling any sympathy, he was overjoyed!
When you're feeling sleepy, someone brings you a pillow!
When you're short of money, someone will offer you a project!
This is like a windfall!
My father-in-law's family is facing a crisis? Doesn't that mean I can legitimately and generously pour money into it?
At that time, what about supply chains, bank loans, technical backbone...?
If money can solve a problem, is it even a problem?
Once the money is spent, the system's rebates of tens or hundreds of times will flow into your account in no time.
This is not a crisis!
This is clearly an overwhelming fortune, a year-end bonus sent to me by the system!
Jiang Chen's mind was racing with calculations.
He could no longer bear the lifeless scene, so he pushed open the study door and swaggered in.
Under the astonished gazes of Su Tianhao and Su Qing, Jiang Chen walked to his desk, patted his chest heavily, and flashed his signature, extremely confident, sunny smile.
"Uncle, it's nothing, why are you in such a hurry?"
"I'll take care of it!"
