Chapter 318: Taking Advantage of Others
Lu Yiming learned about the closure of Shijinji from a phone call from Su Yunjin.
He thought it was bullshit.
Shijinji doesn’t have any products now, why is it being seized?
The business has been sold, can you still find out that the hygiene is not up to standard?
As a result, Su Yunjin said it was a fire safety issue and was ordered to rectify the situation.
As soon as Lu Yiming heard it, he knew that Shijinji was in trouble.
This reason sounds so damn familiar.
Not to mention the various news cases seen in later generations, just in the first half of this year, Tongxin Internet Cafe was closed for two months for the same reason.
The final result resulted in several deaths and injuries, which was truly a tragedy.
"It seems like someone is getting lonely again. I want to make money through harmony."
Lu Yiming muttered to himself, then he comforted Su Yunjin and said, "Aunt Su, don't worry. I already know what happened. Let me handle it."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
I am a promising young man who is honest, peaceful, and kind to others. How could I have accidentally stepped on the tail of some rotten fish or shrimp?
Isn't this bullying an honest person? My uncle can tolerate this, but my sister-in-law can't!
However, before Lu Yiming could figure out a clue, Li Zixian called again.
"Mr. Lu, I have news for you."
When Lu Yiming heard Li Zixian's low tone, he knew that what she was going to say was definitely not good news, so he responded weakly: "Go ahead, I'm listening."
On the other end of the phone, Li Zixian spoke the truth with some apology: "It's like this, I suddenly received news that the show "Millionaire Painter" may have to be temporarily suspended."
"Yes, I understand."
Although it was bad news, Lu Yiming, who had been prepared, felt calm in his heart.
Instead, Li Zixian felt bad and apologized to him again and again: "Mr. Lu, I am really sorry about this. I have no choice but to follow the order from the TV station. In fact, I really hope to continue to cooperate with you."
"I understand. There will be a chance in the future."
"Mr. Lu, I'm asking something I shouldn't ask... Have you offended anyone recently?"
"No! How could I, who is so kind and smiling, offend anyone? This must be a rumor!"
"Well, I still have work to do here, so I won't chat with you any more. I look forward to working with you."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Baiyun TV is the highest-level official TV station in Baiyun City. The conditions had been negotiated and the programs had been set in stone before. They would benefit both parties. But now they just say they won’t do it.
There is no doubt that the person who greeted is very energetic.
Not to mention being able to cover the sky with one hand, but at least being lawless.
Putting the phone back into his pocket, Lu Yiming did not continue to worry. He believed that things would work out when the time came. He believed that there would always be a way to solve the problem, so he was not in a hurry.
After school at noon, Shi Qingxue asked Lu Yiming to go to the cafeteria to eat. Lu Yiming said, "You guys go ahead. There's a small problem at Shijinji. I need to rush over to deal with it."
"ah?"
Shi Qingxue's shares were all managed by Su Yunjin, who basically never told her about the company's affairs, so she didn't know what was going on.
"Is it serious?"
Lu Yiming smiled and didn't intend to let Shi Qingxue worry about these things, so he comforted her and said, "It's not serious, I'll just go over to take a look, you guys go eat first."
"good."
Shi Qingxue believed Lu Yiming's words unconditionally and never caused trouble for him in his important work.
"Do you want me to help you with the food?"
"No, I'll just eat something outside."
"Okay then, I'm leaving now. Bye, good luck."
"Yes, I will."
Lu Yiming walked out of the school and Zhao Tiezhu drove to Shijinji.
In the company, Su Yunjin and her sister, Lei Peilin and other senior executives were all there. Everyone had a serious expression on their faces and were discussing this matter enthusiastically.
Seeing Lu Yiming coming over, everyone stood up.
"Boss Lu, you are finally here."
"Mr. Lu, the company..."
Lu Yiming waved his hand and sat down in his seat calmly.
"I have a general understanding of what happened. There is no doubt that we were tricked."
At this moment, Su Yunjin, who had never experienced any major storms, was worried and at a loss: "What should we do? The person we offended this time seems to be quite powerful. The relevant departments came directly to seal up the house, and the cooperation with the TV station was also terminated."
Since ancient times, the people have not fought against the officials. This concept has been deeply rooted. Not to mention that businessmen are like fat pigs in the face of power and can be slaughtered whenever the power wants.
Su Yunjin was worried that someone might take a fancy to Shi Jinji and that she would be stabbed and bled and her flesh cut.
What is even more confusing is that Shijinji has nothing now. Who with a fancy taste would choose this time to attack Shijinji?
Lu Yiming's eyes were calm, and his tone was even more unhurried: "Don't be anxious yet. Wait until we figure out who is causing trouble, and then we can think of a way to deal with it. When enemies come, we will stop them with soldiers and when water comes, we will block it with earth. We should respond to all changes with the same attitude."
Then, he instructed everyone, "Just do what you should do. Those people sealing up the company don't restrict your personal freedom, so do what you should do. By the way, Lao Lei, please stay for a while."
Lei Peilin quickly sat up straight and said, "Boss Lu, do you have any other instructions?"
"You can still accept submissions as usual. If someone comes to stop you, just film it. Anyway, these are all part of the show. I think this will make the show more interesting."
"good."
Lu Yiming calmed everyone down, then shouted again, "Alright, don't panic, I'll go find someone to find out more about the situation."
After leaving Shijinji, Lu Yiming went to Jingwan Group to find Lin Shuyi.
Among the people I know, the one with the widest network of contacts is probably Lin Shuyi. After all, as the daughter of the richest man in Baiyun, her network of contacts must be amazing, right?
Passing through the familiar gate, Lu Yiming came to the front desk, but the person he saw was not the familiar receptionist. Unfortunately, she was on leave today, and her replacement was a beautiful young lady. It was that face that Lu Yiming always felt was somewhat familiar, and he couldn't help but move forward.
The young and beautiful woman saw someone coming and greeted politely: "Hello sir, welcome to Jingwan Group. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Lu Yiming stared at her for a long time before he asked with a puzzled smile, "Beautiful lady, have we met somewhere before? You look very familiar to me."
Because she was used to being approached, the beautiful lady didn't take Lu Yiming's words seriously. She just regarded him as a frivolous rich boy. She smiled in a formal way and didn't answer Lu Yiming's words. She just asked, "What do you want?"
Seeing that the young and beautiful woman did not respond to his question, Lu Yiming shrugged his shoulders and was too lazy to continue asking. He immediately explained his purpose: "I came to see your CEO Lin. Where is she?"
Zhu Xintong smiled, but her words were still distant: "Hello, sir, do you have an appointment in advance?"
Lu Yiming was stunned when he heard this: "Uh, do I need to make an appointment to see your CEO Lin? Okay, I'll give her a call and ask."
After changing the receptionist, the other party insisted on handling the matter impartially. Lu Yiming was helpless. He was not the kind of arrogant and domineering person, so he did not choose to argue or make a noise. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Lin Shuyi's private number.
"Hey, Mr. Lin, you are really different now. Even I have to make an appointment before I can come to see you. How are you doing in charge of a large group at such a young age? Are you comfortable? Do you eat well and sleep well every day? Have you gained a few pounds..."
On the other end of the phone, Lin Shuyi interrupted Lu Yiming and shouted with a frown, "Stop, stop giving me that shit, if you have something to say, just say it now! By the way, I heard from Old Xia that after you took over Jingyi Real Estate, you haven't managed it much?"
Lu Yiming snorted and deliberately showed an unhappy attitude: "This old Xia is really not nice. I still regard him as a friend, but he actually reported me behind my back? No, next time we meet, I must criticize him. How can he be such a person."
Lin Shuyi's tone became even more unhappy, and she gritted her teeth and said, "How dare you criticize others? You just left it alone after buying it. If this investment results in a loss, I will hold you accountable!"
The tigress was angry, so Lu Yiming could only coax her. He immediately patted his chest and made a promise: "Don't worry, I won't lose anything. I'll use Lao Xia's life to guarantee it. Besides, I'm a student now and I have to take the college entrance examination! I should put my studies , isn't that the right thing to do?"
Lin Shuyi sneered at Lu Yiming's words and exposed him on the spot: "You? You still put your studies first? Then explain why you keep going to Shi Jin Ji? You neglect your own company and work for others. You are quite active."
Lu Yiming has always been thicker than a city wall. He was not ashamed when his past was exposed. Instead, he took advantage of the situation and said shamelessly: "Hey, what a coincidence, when we talk about this, you have to do me a favor."
Without waiting for Lu Yiming to make a request, Lin Shuyi directly refused: "No help."
Lu Yiming was immediately upset: "Hey, Mr. Lin, this is too much for you, right? This concerns my lifelong event, please help me."
"You? Your lifelong event? Which little girl are you planning to harm?"
"Hey, well, let's go to your office and chat. By the way, remember to make me a cup of coffee first."
"roll."
When he arrived at the office, Lu Yiming did not continue to talk nonsense, but told Shi Jinji everything that happened in detail.
After listening to what Lu Yiming said, Lin Shuyi frowned slightly: "So, what do you want to do?"
Lu Yiming stated his request directly: "I want you to help me find out which god is stirring up trouble behind the scenes."
"That's the person you offended . Do we need to check?"
Lin Shuyi looked at Lu Yiming like a fool, "They've already made it clear that they want to get you, and you're still asking?"
Lu Yiming scratched his head, his eyes full of confusion. "I was thinking, that guy from some crappy association wouldn't be that capable, right? There must be something else going on. How about you help me ask this guy if he has any other identities?"
Lin Shuyi frowned slightly, picked up the phone, and asked Lu Yiming: "Do you know who led the team to seal up the company at that time?"
Lu Yiming said: "I asked, his name is Xu Yihai."
Then Lu Yiming told Lin Shuyi about Xu Yihai's department and position.
Lin Shuyi took out the phone book, flipped through it, and started making calls.
After getting the key information, Lin Shuyi naturally knew who to contact for this matter. After a few phone calls, she immediately found out the whole story from one of the influential figures.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Shuyi looked at Lu Yiming with a half-smile, which made Lu Yiming feel uneasy.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm already in a relationship. Even if you fall in love with me, you have no choice but to give up."
Lin Shuyi spat, "Bah! Shameless! I told you, the one who messed with you was Wu Changmao. The Wu family is a big family with many people in business and politics. Logically speaking, you two should have nothing in common, so how did you offend him?"
Lu Yiming thought about it, but shook his head like a rattle: "I don't even know him."
Lin Shuyi suddenly remembered something and asked, "You must know his brother, Wu Changsheng. Do you think they are retaliating against you for intercepting the Changsheng Fund?"
After hearing this, Lu Yiming was even more speechless: "You forced this blame on me, and it's been so long, why are you taking action now? Do you have to take such a long time to react?"
At this moment, Lu Yiming's cell phone rang, and Lu Yiming said to Lin Shuyi: "I'll take the call first."
The call was from Lei Peilin.
"Lao Lei, what's wrong?"
Lei Peilin said bitterly, "Boss Lu, the president of the Calligraphers and Painters Association is here again. He also said that he can help us solve the current problems."
"So...what's the price?"
"It's the request he mentioned before."
"Okay, I understand."
After the call, Lu Yiming told Lin Shuyi what had happened.
When Lin Shuyi heard Ji Wenze's name, she immediately covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "I just remembered that this Ji Wenze seems to be Wu Changmao's father-in-law."
Lu Yiming was stunned for a long time with his mouth wide open, and finally slammed the table fiercely and cursed: "Fuck!"
In this world, it is really easy to see the King of Hell but difficult to deal with the little devils.
"I'm leaving."
Lu Yiming finished the coffee in the cup, then stood up and prepared to leave.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and asked, "By the way, why did the reception desk change? Where is the beautiful girl from before?"
Lin Shuyi teased, "What? Are you attracted to her? Are you worried about her when you can't see her?"
Lu Yiming said: "That's not the case, it's just that this receptionist looks familiar to me."
"Let me ask."
Lin Shuyi made a phone call and then said to Lu Yiming: "She signed the order for the villas you bought in Bi Hai Long Ting."
Lu Yiming suddenly realized and remembered that it was Lin Yuzhen's mother Zhu Xintong.
"My goodness, is this considered a promotion?"
"you guess?"
"No guessing, I'm leaving."
Food Notes.
In the office, Ji Wen Ze was still sitting in the reception room of Shi Jin Ji with her eyes closed, looking very arrogant. At this moment, she had already started thinking about how to spend the one million bonus.
He thought that once he got the money, he would first buy a luxury car.
As the president of a calligraphy and painting association, he doesn't even have a luxury car to travel with when he goes out. It's like the gods in Journey to the West who don't even have a mount when they go out. Is that acceptable?
When you meet people from the same circle, you feel embarrassed to say hello!
In addition, he also took a fancy to a Rolex gold watch, which was not expensive, only 158,800. He thought this number was very auspicious, and believed that only a watch of this level could set off his status, enhance his temperament, and make his personal image become more majestic.
He fantasized about it over and over again, but he was the only one in the office. His cup of tea had gone cold, and no one came to find him and give him a satisfactory answer.
This made him very angry, and he immediately slammed the table and shouted: "Where are the people? Where are the people in your company? Are they all dead?"
At this moment, Lu Yiming's lazy voice came from the door: "Don't worry, even if your whole family dies, this company will be fine."
Along with the voices, Lu Yiming and Lei Peilin walked in.
Just now, Lu Yiming had learned the situation from Lei Peilin. Ji Wenzhe not only wanted to directly participate in the finals, but also wanted to internally designate him as the champion. He also asked Shijinji to fully cooperate with him in publicity work. This was equivalent to using Lu Yiming's talent show as a stepping stone to enhance his personal fame and take home a million in bonus.
Seeing Lu Yiming coming in, Ji Wenze's eyes were still full of contempt and disdain. Although he was surprised that Lu Yiming was the helmsman of Shijinji, he still did not intend to treat this young man who was worthy of being his grandson as an equal.
"Young man, don't be too angry. It's useless."
The anger on Ji Wen Ze's face had disappeared, because he knew that he had already taken control of Shi Jin Ji, and now was the time for him to have whatever he wanted.
"I guess this person has already told you my request, right? Do as I say, or else, you'll be in trouble."
