The country’s business world was thrown into disarray when Jin Corporation suddenly announced the termination of all its existing business partnerships with the Fan family. The news came out of nowhere. It became the headlines.
"Jin Corporation Violates Several Active Contracts With the Fans!"
"Jin Corporation Forms a Team of Star Lawyers and Sues the Fans for Breach of Contract!"
"Who’s Really Guilty of Breach of Contract: Jin Corporation or the Fans?"
"Jin Corporation Bullying the Fans? An Unjustified Show of Power!"
Business insiders already speculated that there were problems between the Jins and the Fans ever since Jin Corporation rejected the Fans’ business proposals this year. However, they didn’t expect that Jin Corporation would take such a drastic measure and terminate their existing business partnerships with the Fans.
This was severe violation of their valid contracts. Jin Corporation was clearly in the wrong! Just because they were number one in the country, they could do whatever they wanted? Did they think that they could use their power and influence to emerge from this ordeal unscathed? This was pure bullying!
Many criticized Jin Corporation, feeling sorry for the Fans. They felt that this was a classic case of the strong bullying the weak.
At Jin Liwei’s office.
"President, are you sure that you want to go ahead with your plans?" Xu Tian asked in an anxious tone. "I know that you won’t change your mind about the Fans but does it have to be this extreme? Our company’s stock prices are currently plummeting. Some are even demanding for you to resign from your position as President-CEO. Many are blaming you, President, because when Sir Lu Jianhong temporarily stepped in as company head, the stock prices soared but when you returned, you caused such a serious problem like this."
Jin Liwei cast his assistant a cold gaze causing Xu Tian to shiver inside. "There will be no changes to the plans. Once we get all the evidence, the tables will be turned. Let’s see if the public will still sympathize with the Fans then."
"Understood, President," was all Xu Tian could say.
Xu Tian was hoping that Sir Lu Jianhong would intervene. Unfortunately, the business legend had no intention of doing so. He personally heard the President and Sir Lu Jianhong speaking about this issue during a phone call on speaker.
"You’re now the head of the company, Liwei my boy! Whatever you decide to do will be your sole responsibility!" Grandpa Lu’s voice boomed. "If the company prospers, the credit goes to you! But if it collapses, then it’ll be your fault! Whatever happens, I’m not going to intervene! I only stepped in temporarily because of my precious granddaughter Xiulan, not for you! Do you hear me?"
"Yes, Grandpa Lu. I know," Jin Liwei replied.
"Do what you need to do, my boy! My time with Jin Corporation is now done. I’m going to spend my remaining years enjoying the fruits of my labour that I earned during my youth! Ahaha!"
"Don’t worry, Grandpa Lu. I’ll take care of the company."
"Hmph! Who’s worrying about you? By the way, why is my Haohao living with you? I want to know!"
This change of topic showed that Grandpa Lu didn’t think of this whole matter with the Fans as something serious.
When the call ended, Jin Liwei continued working as usual, as if unbothered by all the condemnation being thrown at him and his company. His mother already started calling him nonstop, pleading for the Fans. He almost wavered hearing her distress, but he hardened his heart towards her just this once.
