Chapter 1121 The Third Party
Thinking about it, Mr. Lu raised his head and looked at Uncle Huo.
"Do you think Song Yuanchao is behind this?" asked Mr. Lu.
"Zhang Liming explained it to you just now. I think his explanation makes sense. It's unlikely to be Song Yuanchao."
"That's not necessarily true." Young Master Lu shook his head. "After thinking about it, I still think Song Yuanchao is the most suspicious. Don't forget that we almost got Si Te in the first place. If it weren't for that bastard Zhu Weizhou who ruined the whole thing, Si Te would have been in our hands a long time ago."
"After suffering such a huge loss, how could Song Yuanchao not remember it? Moreover, Shi Lei had gone to find Song Yuanchao. It's only been a few days, and this has come up?"
"But Mr. Lu, the incident with Si Te is over. Song Yuanchao and we also shook hands and made peace." Uncle Huo said.
Young Master Lu sneered twice: "Handshake and make peace? What do you mean by handshake and make peace? I am sincere here, but what about Song Yuanchao? He didn't accept my sincerity. In this case, do you think he will not think about this matter in his heart? What do you think, Uncle Huo?"
This made Uncle Huo speechless. What Lu Shao said was right. He had suppressed the matter through his connections, and Song Yuanchao also expressed his attitude of not pursuing the matter. But there was a problem, that is, Song Yuanchao did not accept Lu Shao's "sincerity", and this matter had always been a knot in Lu Shao's heart.
In Lu Shao's opinion, Song Yuanchao still holds a grudge. On the surface, he says he wants to reconcile, but in his heart he still thinks about this matter. Otherwise, why did Song Yuanchao reject his kindness? Isn't it obvious?
Another point is that the timing of the emergence of this capital is too coincidental. Song Yuanchao just rejected Shi Lei, and a few days later, such a capital emerged. Moreover, the source of this capital has a thousand connections with Jinling, including Si Te. The combination of these factors cannot help but make Lu Shao think more.
Zhang Liming had explained this to Lu Shao before, and judged that this matter had nothing to do with Song Yuanchao. But after Zhang Liming left, Lu Shao thought more and more that this matter was done by Song Yuanchao, otherwise how could he explain so many coincidences.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible. At this time, Mr. Lu had already concluded that this matter was related to Song Yuanchao, and his face became extremely ugly.
Uncle Huo sighed inwardly, he knew this young master too well. Although Young Master Lu usually treated people kindly and appeared to be free and easy, he was actually very stubborn and self-willed. Moreover, Young Master Lu had been on a smooth sailing all the way over the years, and he was invincible in several major events, which further fostered his personality. The only setback he encountered was with Song Yuanchao.
Judging others by one's own experience, it is normal for Young Master Lu to have such thoughts. Moreover, even Uncle Huo was somewhat skeptical about whether this matter was related to Song Yuanchao. After all, this matter was too coincidental.
Zhang Liming's explanation seemed to make sense, but from another perspective, maybe it was a maze set up by Song Yuanchao on purpose? This was possible, but it was just a guess. In order not to mislead Mr. Lu, Uncle Huo did not put forward his own judgment.
But now, Young Master Lu clearly put the blame on Song Yuanchao, and had concluded that it was Song Yuanchao who did it. Although Uncle Huo felt that this seemed a little inappropriate, seeing Young Master Lu's gloomy face, Uncle Huo hesitated and said nothing.
"Call Lao Xiao right now and ask him to hurry up!" Mr. Lu suddenly said this.
"Mr. Lu, do you really want to...?" Uncle Huo was slightly surprised.
"You know what Zhang Liming said just now. I calculated the money in the bank and I'm afraid it's not enough. He also made it clear that he can only do this much at most. It would be fine if Song Yuanchao didn't make a move, but now Song Yuanchao has made a move. What else can you do without Lao Xiao?"
Uncle Huo hesitated and said, "Mr. Lu, it's better not to touch Lao Xiao's money. After all, this money is different from the bank's money..."
"What's the difference? Money is money, I think it's all the same!" Without waiting for Uncle Huo to finish his words, Lu Shao waved his hand and said, "That's it, contact Lao Xiao as soon as possible and tell him to find a way to transfer some funds immediately, at least this amount!"
As he spoke, Mr. Lu stretched out his hand and gestured, and Uncle Huo had no choice but to nod.
"Oh, right!" Just as Uncle Huo was about to go out and call Old Xiao, Lu Shaoyou stopped him and said, "Don't tell the old man about this yet!"
"Okay, Mr. Lu." Uncle Huo nodded in agreement and left quickly.
Zhang Liming was not aware of the conversation in the villa. If he knew, he would definitely persuade Mr. Lu. Unfortunately, Zhang Liming had already left by then.
As for Song Yuanchao, he had no idea what Mr. Lu was thinking, but he sensed a sense of crisis at the very beginning of this matter. Especially after the capital changes in Shi Lei's company's acquisition and the appearance of those news on the Internet, Song Yuanchao knew that this matter was a bit tricky. Now he was inexplicably blamed. Song Yuanchao, who originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, was inevitably involved.
Song Yuanchao did not make any explanation, nor did he question Liu Da and Hu Yaoqing, because he knew very well that doing so would be useless.
What's more, Song Yuanchao's thoughts were similar to those of Young Master Lu . Song Yuanchao always remembered what happened to Sir. If he had the chance to cause some trouble for Young Master Lu, he would be very happy to do so, but the prerequisite was that he had to be absolutely sure.
The situation has become complicated as it has come to this point. Song Yuanchao originally did not want to intervene in this matter, but he did not expect Hu Yaoqing to do such a thing. In this way, he was forced to fight back.
But whether voluntarily or forced, Song Yuanchao's character has never changed. If he does something, he will do it to the end. This has also been Song Yuanchao's principle in the past.
Just a few days after Zhang Liming went to meet Mr. Lu, the dispute over Shi Lei's company equity suddenly became more intense. The two sides fought fiercely over the secondary market and internal company equity. Especially when the bank funds raised by Zhang Liming for Mr. Lu were in place, this fight could be said to have entered the daytime stage.
For a time, the stock price of Shi Lei's company soared like a rocket, with the price rising sharply every day. If it weren't for the limit on the price increase in the mainland stock market, the increase in the stock price would be even more amazing.
Of course, there have been some pullbacks, but such pullbacks are only necessary means of stock market operations, and everyone knows its real purpose.
Zhang Liming and Lu Shao continued to invest the funds they raised. Hu Yaoqing and Liu Da were not pushovers either, as they also had huge amounts of funds in their hands.
Although Shi Lei's company is not small in scale, and its market value in the secondary market is constantly being refreshed as the stock price continues to rise, in the competition between these two capitals, Shi Lei and his company have become spectators. He watched helplessly as his company was used as a battlefield by others and fought back and forth, but he was powerless to do anything.
At this time, when no one expected it, another mysterious capital quietly entered the battlefield. At first, no one paid attention to this capital, because both sides were already killing each other, so how could they care about other things? Under this circumstance, this mysterious capital wandered around the edge of the battlefield, cleverly taking advantage of the complex situation between the two sides, and at the same time using this situation to cover itself up well.
It was not until several days later that both sides discovered the existence of this mysterious capital. However, at that time, both sides did not pay much attention to it. The first judgment was that this was the capital of the opponent and was an enemy rather than an ally.
But as time went on, when the competition for chips became more and more intense, the performance of this capital in the market began to become clear. Both parties were shocked to find that this new capital was not only hitting themselves, but also their opponents. The source of this capital was not what they had imagined before, but was completely the behavior of a third party.
What’s even worse is that neither Lu Shao nor Hu Yaoqing could find out who the owner of this capital was for a while.
It stands to reason that this is unlikely, but it happened nonetheless.
In fact, it is not that nothing can be found, but it is only possible to find out which company the capital belongs to. However, the problem is that this company does not have the possibility of having such strength in any aspect.
After a detailed investigation, they found that the equity structure behind this company was very complicated, and it also involved the equity structure of some offshore companies. They could only find this surface information, but they were powerless to find out the truth behind this information.
From this point of view, it can be judged that this company is simply a shell, or just a tool.
In fact, Master Lu did the same thing, but his methods were slightly inferior. In addition, when Master Lu mobilized funds, it was easy for people to find out who was behind the move. As for Hu Yaoqing, although he also wore several layers of vests, and with the help of Liu Da, he concealed it much better than Master Lu, but judging from Song Yuanchao, it should not be difficult to determine that Hu Yaoqing and Liu Da were behind it.
But the company owned by the third capital that emerged was different. No matter how they investigated, they could not find the real person behind the scenes. Moreover, this capital did not show strong strength from the beginning. This was also the fundamental reason for the misjudgment of both parties. When this capital began to emerge, its strength scared both parties, and they became very vigilant for a while.
"What? Haven't you found out yet?" Young Master Lu asked Uncle Huo with a grim expression.
Uncle Huo shook his head, his expression not looking very good.
"The time is too short, but don't worry, if you give me a little more time, I will definitely be able to dig out the person behind this." Uncle Huo comforted Mr. Lu.
"Give me more time? How long will it take? One day? Two days? One week? Two weeks? Or one month or two months? If we can't figure it out in one year, do we have to wait another year?" Mr. Lu asked back. Uncle Huo didn't know how to answer for a moment. He had no way of giving Mr. Lu an accurate time. The other party deliberately concealed the information in order to hide it. No matter how capable Uncle Huo was, he couldn't do it in such a short time.
