The Black Shadow Racing Toward Them!
Now, with Chen Mo as the new boss, although he will still "go his own way," he is much smarter and wiser than the previous boss, and his vision is far superior. In addition, with the advanced technology Chen Mo has mastered and the top-notch production and processing equipment in the space, Chen Mo believes that the future will definitely develop as he envisions.
After spending over forty million US dollars to buy the nearly bankrupt car manufacturing company, Chen Mo immediately took action.
After spending a night in the castle, Chen Mo hopped on his Harley Street 750 motorcycle the next morning and sped out of the garage gate, which resembled a city gate on the east side of the Castle. He raced down the smooth asphalt road, heading towards the rising sun, speeding between the pastures and the sea, and soon exited the manor gates.
Although there was nothing important inside the castle, Chen Mo stopped at the wrought iron gate to prevent anyone from accidentally breaking in. He locked the gate with the large iron padlock before getting back on his motorcycle, twisting the throttle, and roaring onto Highway 1, disappearing into the distance.
In the northwestern suburbs of Los Angeles, at the gate of Taylor Automotive Manufacturing Company, the company's general manager and heads of various departments stood nervously at the company entrance, awaiting the arrival of their new boss.
This place is located one kilometer east of Highway 1, with a separate road connecting to Highway 1. Standing at the company entrance, you can clearly see the vehicles coming and going on Highway 1. However, there are not many cars on Highway 1 to begin with, and at this time, you can hardly see a single car passing by for half a day.
After a desperate gamble that failed, the original boss sold the company and went off to enjoy himself, while the new owners, whom they knew nothing about, faced an unknown future for the company.
The company was already in a very difficult situation, barely surviving between major companies. Now it has been completely ruined by the radical former owner, and bankruptcy is imminent. It is unknown whether the new owner who dares to take over at this time and acquire this company in Extremis is simply ignorant and fearless, or if he really has something to rely on.
These senior executives and department heads are the ones who know the company's situation best; they are well aware of just how bad the company's current situation is.
The company was already barely surviving, and this blow has dealt it a heavy blow. The small market share it once held is rapidly being lost. Even if the new owner has enough funds to revitalize the company, it will be difficult to regain the lost market share.
Even they themselves are not optimistic about the company's future. If they hadn't worked at the company for many years and had some affection for it, they would have jumped ship long ago to find another way to make a living. Now they can only do their best and leave the rest to fate. Of course, they still hope that a miracle will happen and the company will be brought back to life, although they know that the possibility is extremely slim.
A capable-looking middle-aged man in his forties, who was at the head of the group, raised his hand to check his watch. It was 8:58, two minutes before the agreed time. Then he looked up at the distance.
There, Highway 1 bends at the foot of a mountain and is blocked by the mountain, so the farthest point of the highway that can be seen is below that foot of the mountain.
However, there was still no one there.
Michael, the middle-aged man and the company's general manager, slowly lowered his left hand, which was wearing a watch. Although he did not speak, there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
If they can't even be punctual, he simply can't believe that their new boss can lead them to revive the company.
It's important to understand that given the company's current situation, simply injecting funds won't solve the problem. Even if production can be resumed, or even if investment is increased and capacity expanded, without any limited measures, car sales are likely to continue to decline, products will remain unsold, and expenses will exceed income. In such a situation, any further investment will simply be a waste of money.
The others clearly noticed Michael's actions and couldn't help but check the time.
There were less than two minutes left, and it would take at least three minutes to get from the foot of the mountain at the end of the road they could see to the company entrance. Even if he appeared now, it would be impossible for him to arrive at the company entrance on time.
Being a few minutes late isn't a big deal, but the fact that the new boss was late on his first day of visiting the company made it impossible for them to have high expectations of this complete stranger. Their morale, which had been slightly boosted by the company's acquisition, plummeted again.
Perhaps they shouldn't have had such high expectations. The company's decline is unstoppable, and bankruptcy is inevitable, it's just a matter of time. Perhaps they should prepare to leave.
The company was already in a bad situation, and everyone was quite sensitive. Just as their morale was dampened by the fact that the new boss was about to be late, a black figure suddenly emerged from behind the mountain at the end of the road and came into everyone's sight.
Everyone's spirits lifted, but soon they all became dejected again.
Judging from its size, the figure that had just appeared did not seem to be the car their new boss was waiting for, but rather a motorcycle.
The group, who had just begun to feel a glimmer of hope, were once again disappointed.
Although their company is not large in scale and not well-known, it is still a car manufacturing enterprise with annual sales of tens of millions of US dollars. Although it is on the verge of bankruptcy, its market value is still tens of millions. The person who can spend so much money to acquire a car manufacturing company on the verge of bankruptcy and will definitely continue to invest in it must be a billionaire. His car is certainly not shabby. As for motorcycles, they would not even think about it.
In their low spirits, they didn't bother to look closely at the motorcycle that had unexpectedly wandered in; instead, they turned their attention back to the end of the road, to the spot where the motorcycle had appeared earlier.
As they continued to stare into the distance with mixed feelings, waiting for the new boss to arrive, the motorcycle they had ignored sped towards them at an extremely high speed.
The motorcycle performed a beautiful drift at the intersection connecting the road to the company entrance, quickly turned around, and charged towards the group of company executives standing at the gate.
Although everyone was anxiously looking into the distance, waiting for the new boss to appear, some people still heard the increasingly loud roar of the engine as the motorcycle rapidly approached, and couldn't help but turn their heads to look ahead.
A dark figure suddenly appeared on the road in front of the company and was rushing straight towards them at an extremely high speed.
