The whole Financial Development Department fainted after listening to Qin Feng’s utterance.
If Qin Feng wasn’t their young master, these people might have knocked some sense into him.
Why wouldn’t they be angry? A strong and high-growth company with a promising future was destroyed by a squandering little brat and indirectly caused everyone to lose their job. How could they not be enraged?
Qin Huang choked on a mouthful of water. He caught Qin Feng’s eye and said, “Come to my office!” Qin Huang then entered his office.
Taking his cue, Han Ying Ying and Qin Feng followed him to his office. After they shut the door, Qin Huang couldn’t hold back his frustration anymore and asked.
“Why do you need 200 million yuan?! What are you going to do with it?”
“I want to absorb the shares of the three consortia, but I do not have enough money now.” Qin Feng calmly replied.
Han Ying Ying and Qin Huang were yet again startled by Qin Feng’s utterance. Neither could fathom why Qin Feng would pour a mint of expenditures at this crucial moment to absorb the shares of the three consortia. In their perspective, it was wiser to reassure people's minds by devoting all of their funding to stabilize the share price of the Royal Group and then have a tug-of-war with the three consortia while waiting for Royal Group’s shares to recover its original state.
“Feng’er, what are you actually trying to do? Dad is so confused!”
“Qin Feng, I think it’s better we go the conventional way. We should retrieve the Royal Group’s lost shares and stabilize the share price. We’ll talk about the rest afterward. What do you think,” Han Ying Ying carefully asked.
“Ying Ying, we can’t revive the Royal Group’s shares and a conventional way won’t work anymore. If we follow the conventional road, the only thing awaiting us is demise. We won’t die instantly, but we’ll be consumed by death bit by bit; it will be just like committing a slow suicide and the feeling is too hard to bear!” retorted Qin Feng while he looked at Han Ying Ying with an apologetic look. Yesterday, he yelled at her in the heat of the moment and now he felt sorry for her.
Han Ying Ying understood his meaning. She wore a smile and nodded to accept and reciprocate his apology.
Qin Feng turned to Qin Huang and asked, “Dad, didn’t you put some shares under my name and then transfer it to a woman? I remember you told me before that the amount is roughly 200 million yuan. Give me that money!”
Surprised, a flash of light flitted across Han Ying Ying eyes when she heard what Qin Feng said. Meanwhile, Qin Huang’s face held a troubled expression and he said, “I transferred those shares to Dongfang Qing Xue.”
“What the… I’ve always heard of a son cheating his own father; this is the first time I ever heard of a father cheating his own son. Dad, I remember that I told you I won’t marry Dongfang Qing Xue. Why did you still transfer that much money to her? Don’t you think that you’ve put me in a difficult position?” Qin Feng was devoid of speech by Qin Huang’s idiotic action.
A little embarrassed, Qin Huang clear his throat and continued, “I don’t think a mere 200 million mattered a lot to the Dongfang family. I’m guessing they just regard it as a betrothal gift… So you want the money back now?”
“Yes, we must get it back post haste. It will be our lifesaver!” Qin Feng replied resolutely.
Qin Huang trusted his son one hundred percent. He moved to the side to do his bidding.
After a short conversation with Han Ying Ying, Qin Feng returned to the main control room to continue preparing his huge acquisition. This financial war was beset with crises and he had deployed many traps for his opponent. However, since he was still in the preparation stage, everybody had yet to see the results of his action. Wait. We have to wait. After tonight, and once the market opens tomorrow, it’s my turn fight back!
At that time, I’ll be on top of the world!
“Young Master Qin, we received the funding already, but do we really have to use the funds to absorb the shares of the three consortia? If we use it to reinforce and boost our Royal Group’s shares, we might be able to persist for another three days!” suggested Zhang Feng.
“Yes, we’re going to absorb as much as we can. Just follow my orders; I’ll bear all the responsibility if anything happens!” Qin Feng reassured Zhang Feng and continued executing his plan.
Zhang heaved a heavy sigh and shook his head before plunging himself into his own work.
Liu Fang turned to Qin Feng and asked worriedly, “Young Master Qin, all of our circulating shares have been sold and if we want to keep selling our shares, we can only split up our fixed shares. However, if we do that, then our shareholders might have some issues with us.”
Qin Feng continued to tap away in front of a keyboard while he replied to Liu Fang with full determination, “Split it! Those shareholders should keep quiet if they want to earn a heavy return. If they have any issues with us, this young master will give them the dividend they deserve after everything has ended and cast them out from our company!”
Qin Feng displayed an unflinching demeanor; his body was surging with an indomitable spirit.
Inspired by his fearless spirit, Liu Fang and Zhang Feng clenched their teeth and followed Qin Feng’s order to the end. They felt that with Qin Feng on their side, there was nothing in this world that they could not accomplish!
Besides, after both of them had assisted him for a day, the two of them were certain that Qin Feng’s capability in trading stock was absolutely first-class. His ability was so great that they felt they were far behind him. Hope arose from the bottom of their heart. Qin Feng might be the only person who can reverse the whole situation and lead them to emerge victorious in this heated financial war!
Qin Feng, Liu Fang, and Zhang Feng were awfully busy inside the main control room. In the meantime, the crowd in the Financial Development Department was buzzing with all sorts of activities as well.
Although those financial analysts appeared to be assisting Qin Feng, they were actually dissing Qin Feng in their hearts as they still couldn’t see through Qin Feng’s movements. From their perspective, the Royal Group was doomed.
A day went by in no time and the market soon closed. Nobody could bring themselves to check on the share price for the Royal Group. Within the span of three days, the Royal Group’s share price slumped more than 30% and they had lost a zillion yuan!
The atmosphere of the whole Royal Group was gloomy. Crestfallen, the people went back to their homes dispiritedly. They were not sure how long the Royal Group could hold its ground and they thought it might be time for them to seek alternative employment.
Night fell.
After working yet another 12 hours straight, Qin Feng finally stopped to take a breather.
Zhang Feng and Liu Fang, on the other hand, continued to work on their computers after they filled their stomachs. In the meantime, Han Ying Ying and Xu Ruo Rou did not leave the company, but kept Qin Feng company over these few battle ridden days.
“Thank you, my loves.” Seeing the ladies were fast asleep on a table outside of the Financial Development Department, Qin Feng draped his coat over Xu Ruo Rou and draped another cloth over Han Ying Ying.
He did not wake the ladies and went to a french window alone, gazing out on the night sky of Acropolis City.
He noticed that the night was hazy and the wind was cozy. Qin Feng pulled out his cell phone and prepared to make some phone calls. The people he was calling would play important roles in his plan and they were his final trump card to win the fight tomorrow.
It was the wee hours of the night. Qin Feng waited for some time before a drowsy voice wafted over from the other end of the line, “Hello, is that Qin Feng?”
“Qiu Yue, sorry for disturbing you this late at night.” Qin Feng relaxed slightly after hearing Su Qiu Yue’s voice.
“Qin Feng, what made you call me so late tonight?” said Su Qiu Yue. There was a tinge of happiness in her voice because it had been so long since Qin Feng had contacted her.
“Qiu Yue, the Royal Group is in trouble and I need financial assistance from you.” Qin Feng was close to Su Qiu Yue so he didn’t beat around the bush and cut straight to the point.
“How much do you need?” Su Qiu Yue replied seriously.
“How much can you spare?”
“Our Su Group is in no need of money and I can spare around one hundred billion that’s under my power. However, if it’s still insufficient, then I’ll seek out Grandpa tomorrow and have him authorize more power to me to further circulate more funds. I think, 300 billion is the least I can do!”
Qin Feng’s heart was warmed by Su Qiu Yue’s prompt reply. It seemed to him that risking his life to rescue the Su family had not been in vain. There was no one else who could lend another person a billion with only a few words.
“Thank you very much, Qiu Yue.” Qin Feng sincerely expressed his gratitude.
Su Qiu Yue fell silent. After awhile, she replied, “Qin Feng, you’ve settled down with Xia Tian and Grandpa has promised you half of the Su family’s property. Hence, you’re considered part of the Su family; you don’t have to be so courteous with us.”
“Sister, who is on the phone? Is it that bastard Qin Feng?” Another chirping voice wafted into Qin Feng’s ear. “Bastard Qin Feng, is that you? I’m Xia Tian. Why haven’t you called me lately? I don’t care. You have to come down to Sky City to play with me whenever you’re free otherwise I’ll storm up to Acropolis City and beat you down, you heartless rat!”
Qin Feng felt his fatigue purged by Su Xia Tian’s lively and mischievous voice. Then, he laughed, “I’ve been quite occupied recently. I’ll find you whenever I finish my job here!”
“You’re in trouble? What happened? Do you need my help? I can bring my men there and help you to fight off the bastard who is harassing you. I’ll tell them the only person allowed to bully you is me, Su Xia Tian!” Su Xia Tian suddenly became anxious when she knew Qin Feng was in trouble.
Although Qin Feng couldn’t see her face, he was able to sketch Su Xiao Tian’s charming and wacky expressions in his mind. He replied to her, “It’s fine, I’ve got it all under control now. Xia Tian, you just need to stay in the house and wait for me after I finish my task!”
“You’ve made your promise. My sister can be the witness. You can’t deny it anymore!”
Not long after, His cell phone rang. It was Zhao Ling Xian.
“Qin Feng.” Zhao Ling Xian was suppressing her anger.
“Ling Xian, you haven’t gone to bed yet? Why are you calling so late?” Zhao Ling Xian’s constrained voice made Qin Feng worried.
“Is the Royal Group facing financial difficulties?” Zhao Ling Xian fired the question back at Qin Feng. Her voice was filled with anger. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I’m sorry about that, Ling Xian. I just don’t want you to worry about me. The financial breakdown just happened in the last two days and I was busy handling the company so I haven’t had time to inform you.” Qin Feng was once again moved by this group of ladies.
Zhao Ling Xian fell silent for a moment before she continued with her voice soft as water, “I’ll ask my dad to help Royal Group tomorrow. It’s right to help a friend when he is in trouble. Plus Dad has been a long time friend of Uncle Qin!”
After he and Zhao Ling Xian hung up, his cell phone rang again. This time it was Bai Qing.
“Qin Feng, why couldn’t I get ahold of you over these past two days? I’ve heard that the Royal Group is facing a financial meltdown. Are you alright? I’m at home. Do you want to come over now? I’ll do my best to serve you!”
Bai Qing did not have a glorious pedigree compared to Zhao Ling Xian and Su Qiu Yue. She couldn’t help Qin Feng from a monetary standpoint, but at the very least, she could entertain Qin Feng with her body and make him happier when he was in trouble.
Qin Feng’s eyes reddened. He fondly replied, “Don’t worry, Qing Qing. Stay in the villa and wait for my return. I’m fine over here. I’ll find Bai Xiu a school once I get my task done. If you’re bored staying alone in the house, then I’ll find you a job in the Royal Hotel and make you the Chief Executive Officer of the Royal Hotel.”
After he hung up the phone, Qin Feng’s cell phone went off again.
“Qin Feng, is the Royal Group facing a financial crisis? I’ve some money with me, give me your card number. I’ll transfer 3 million yuan to you!” Rao Shi Man’s anxious voice wafted into his ear.
Even the iceberg beauty, Liu Bing Bing called him and offered to help. “Qin Feng, I’ve heard the news that the Royal Group’s capital chain has ruptured. Is that true? Anyway, let me know if you need any assistance. I’ll have the people from Liu family help you out!” Ever since she was dominated by Qin Feng in the Feng Yun Fun City at Heping town, her attitude toward Qin Feng had undergone a huge change. Although she refused to admit it, Liu Bing Bing actually had fallen for Qin Feng already.
When he was in the control room, Qin Feng shut down his cell phone to keep others from disturbing him.
He never expected so many people to call him right after he restarted his cell phone.
Qin Feng was waiting for another important call when his phone rang again. When he looked at the caller ID, Qin Feng was stunned.
