Su Wantang's words made Meeting Room quiet for a moment.
"Should I go to the detention center?" Zhao Chen looked at her, frowning slightly, "Now?"
"That's right, right now."
Su Wantang did not avoid his gaze, "And let everyone know that you are gone."
Chen Xi raised his head, Zhang Qingxue put down Fountain Pen.
They all want to know why!
Zhao Chen did not immediately refute, but "reason" was clearly written on his eyebrows.
Su Wantang leaned forward and said in a calm voice:
"A normal person suddenly learns that he has three half-brothers and sisters. What should be his first reaction?"
Zhao Chen Silence.
"... Ask Father." He said it himself.
Su Wantang nodded:
"Yes. Ask for confirmation. Question. Even if it's just to see my father's reaction with my own eyes."
She paused:
"What will the public think if you don't go?"
No one in the office answered the call.
"They will think: Why didn't Zhao Chen ask? Did he not want to ask, or did he already know?"
Su Wantang didn't say the second half of the sentence.
But everyone understood it.
--Or he already knew it, so there was no need to ask.
Zhao Chen lowered his eyes.
He knew Su Wantang was right.
From the time Lin Wanqing broke the news to now, all his reactions have been "counterattack".
Issuing a statement, retaining the right to pursue liability, arranging securities firms to force the company to force the government, and arranging share transfers.
Not a single bit like an ordinary person who just learned that he has three younger brothers and sisters.
He is too calm.
So calm that he doesn't look like a victim, but like an organizer.
"You went to the detention center," Su Wantang said, "Not to solve the problem."
She paused:
"It's so everyone can see that you're solving the problem too."
see.
This word is like a key, opening the door that Zhao Chen has not opened.
It's not that he doesn't know the importance of public opinion.
He just habitually equated "solving the problem" with "solving it in Meeting Room".
But this time, the problem isn't Meeting Room.
The problem is in the public mind.
He needs to let the public see a Zhao Chen who will be shocked, angry, and confront his father.
Rather than a Zhao Chen sitting in an office on the 28th floor, calmly planning the next counterattack.
"And," Su Wantang continued,
"You can let Zhao Jianguo know what's going on outside."
She paused again:
"How did his affectionate confidante turn the story of their illegitimate child into a prop for his own whitewashing in front of the entire China people?"
"How did the woman he had loved for more than ten years nail his Pledged Shares coffin with her own hands 48 hours before his trial?"
Her tone was still calm, but every word was like a tempered knife.
Zhao Chen looked at her.
"Then," Su Wantang lowered his voice,
"You can tell him what consequences Lin Wanqing will have if he does this."
"--His Pledged Shares will be liquidated on Monday, and his more than 20 years of hard work will be liquidated by the broker within a week."
Zhao Chen was silent for a long time.
This is a psychological warfare.
His opponent is the man trapped in a high wall who still hopes that Lin Wanqing will save him.
"There is a high probability that he will not be defeated easily."
Zhao Chen said, "He should let Lin Wanqing find a way."
"He will call Lin Wanqing." Chen Xi answered, speaking very quickly.
"This is the most likely path. He is locked inside, and all he can ask for is her.
And - he must feel that Lin Wanqing still has money and a way to do it."
She paused:
"So we want brokers to increase their investment at this time."
Zhang Qingxue pushed up his glasses. "You mean..."
"Aren't the brokers going to the detention center tonight?" Chen Xi said,
"Let them solve the problem in front of Zhao Jianguo, otherwise the position will be closed when the market opens on Monday."
She paused:
"Before the brokerage gives the final solution, he must first make that call to Lin Wanqing.
Then tell him: the only solution is for Zhao Zong to take over the shares."
Zhang Qingxue frowned. "Why?"
"Because I want to cut off his thoughts." Zhao Chen said.
Everyone looked at him.
He raised his head and his eyes returned to their usual calmness:
"Lin Wanqing is the last straw for him to keep his equity!"
"He needs to see with his own eyes that Lin Wanqing will not pull him away. Only then will he give up."
Chen Xi nodded:
"She can't pull it up either. Her own cash flow has bottomed out, and the little money left Trust Account is her last family fortune.
Supplementary pledge? If the stock price continues to fall, you won't even hear a sound if you throw that little money in."
She paused:
"And she doesn't dare. She doesn't know where the stock price will fall, and she doesn't know how much more she has to make up. The supplementary pledge is a bottomless pit, and she can't fill it up."
"But she won't start by saying, 'I won't help you.'" Zhang Qingxue said,
"She will find a hundred reasons to delay - the funds cannot be transferred overseas, the account needs to be unlocked, and it takes time to raise funds..."
"Then let the brokerage tell her." Chen Xi said, "There is no time."
She called up the liquidation warning letter that had not yet been sent:
"When the market opened on Monday and the stock price fell below 5.5 yuan, the liquidation procedure was immediately triggered. This is not a threat, it is written in black and white in the contract."
She looked at Zhao Chen:
"When Zhao Jianguo made that phone call, he asked someone from the securities company to stand beside him.
Lin Wanqing Every time he said 'wait', he would ask 'when'."
"Every time Lin Wanqing said, 'Find a way,' he would ask, 'What is the way, how much will it cost, and when will the money be received?'"
