After Mo Zhu left the cafe, she went straight back to the small mansion. When she reached home, she received news from the nanny that Huo Xuan had just received a call and left the small mansion in a hurry.
Worried that Huo Xuan had encountered some tricky matter, Mo Zhu frowned slightly and called the man.
After picking up the phone, Huo Xuan briefly reported his schedule to Mo Zhu. So she found out that he had gone out because of the competition with Jiang Yu yesterday. As the Dong Corporation couldn’t make ends meet and the finance department wanted to sell and auction the subsidiary companies of the corporation, Huo Xuan specially rushed over to take a look.
Upon hearing this and knowing that there was no special incident there, Mo Zhu was relieved and returned to her room to rest.
At the same time, in the chairman’s office of the Dong Corporation.
As the founder and chairman of the Dong Corporation, Dong Li sat at his desk and looked at the thick stack of financial reports in front of him with a frown.
He raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows without batting an eyelid. After a moment of silence, he seemed to have thought of something and closed the folder. He looked up at the secretary standing quietly beside him and sighed unhurriedly. “Xiao Chen, sell all your shares according to my instructions and see if there are any suitable buyers. If there are any with large funds, let him take over all of our company’s business directly!”
Upon hearing this, the man whom Dong Li called Xiao Chen did not seem to have expected him to make such a choice. He stared at Dong Li anxiously and asked in a low voice, “Chairman, are we really going to sell them all? There are so many companies under the Dong Corporation. We can sell a few of them to see the effect. There’s no need to sell them all, right…”
After pausing for a few seconds, the secretary took two steps forward and came to Dong Li’s side. He briefly flipped through the stack of financial reports in front of the man and added with a frown, “Chairman, why don’t we persist? If there’s still a chance to turn things around, won’t we be able to save the corporation from danger?”
The Dong Corporation had been established for more than ten years. Ever since Dong Li started preparing for his business, Secretary Chen had been following him. All these years, the two of them had supported each other and improved together, developing the Dong Corporation to its current scale.
In terms of reluctance, Secretary Chen’s relationship with the Dong Corporation was no less than Dong Li’s. Back then, when the Dong Corporation’s business was booming and all industries were in their glory, they had also wanted to develop the company better and stronger.
Unexpectedly, things didn’t go as planned. In just a few years, the companies under the corporation had been incurring losses year after year. Their capitals were stuck and they could not pull in investments. Many old investors left one after another and dragged it out for a period of time. Now, no one expected that Dong Li, who cherished the Dong Corporation as if it was his own life, would choose to sell all the subsidiaries of the corporation that he had put so much effort in!
Upon hearing Secretary Chen’s words, Dong Li lowered his head weakly as if he had instantly aged ten years. His gaze dispersed and he waved his hand and said lightly, “Xiao Chen, all these years, you’ve been following me without leaving me or abandoning me. You’ve helped me deal with all sorts of miscellaneous matters in the company. It’s been hard on you. Now that there’s no need for the Dong Corporation to persist, you should pack up and go to another company…”
When Secretary Chen heard this, a bitterness welled up in his heart. Thinking of the years the two of them had worked hard together and the more than ten years they had supported each other, he raised his hand and rubbed the tears that seeped out of the corners of his eyes. He said with a slightly choked tone, “Chairman, you don’t have to think for me. I know that it might be difficult for us to make a comeback, but we’ve endured so many hardships. As long as you still want to try, I’m willing to follow you no matter what!”
