Chapter 465 Struggle Among the Elite
The Shen family retaliates, escalating the capital war!
At the Lin Group's board meeting, the shareholders' attitudes completely reversed, and they all expressed their willingness to continue supporting Lin Chuyue's decisions.
But she knew that this capital hunt had only just begun.
Shen Qingyuan will never let this go!
Sure enough, just after the Lin family's shareholders' meeting ended, Jiang Ke rushed into the office with a serious expression.
"Miss Lin, the Shen family has retaliated!"
Lin Chuyue's eyes sharpened: "What did they do?"
Jiang Ke handed over the tablet, the screen displaying the latest financial news—
[Breaking News! Shen's Group issues emergency announcement, stating that it has accepted investment from overseas capital, securing 50 billion yuan in financing!]
[Financial experts analyze: With its strong capital, can the LC Group truly shake the Shen family's power?]
Lin Chuyue frowned slightly, her gaze turning cold.
How did the Shen family manage to find funds to salvage the situation in just one day?
"It seems Shen Qingyuan was prepared..." she murmured, her fingertips slowly tapping the table. "This 50 billion... came too fast."
She looked up at Jiang Ke and said, "Investigate the source of this funding."
Jiang Ke nodded and quickly went to carry it out.
However, she soon returned with an even more unpleasant expression.
“Ms. Lin, the situation is not good.” She lowered her voice, her expression serious. “This 50 billion yuan comes from ‘H·R International Investment Company’.”
Lin Chuyue narrowed her eyes: "H·R?"
Jiang Ke nodded: "Yes, this is a foreign capital institution, but..." She hesitated for a moment, then continued, "We found out that the real controller behind this company is Gu Yanchuan's uncle, Gu Huaishan."
Lin Chuyue was suddenly startled.
"Gu Huaishan?" Her eyes sharpened instantly. "Why is he helping the Shen family?"
Jiang Ke took a deep breath and whispered, "According to our intelligence, Gu Huaishan has been planning to return to the domestic market, and the Shen family is his best springboard."
Lin Chuyue's fingertips slowly tightened.
If the Shen family is a formidable enemy, then Gu Huaishan's involvement means that this capital battle has been completely upgraded from a business contest to a showdown between powerful families!
?
Gu Yanchuan's choice, and the family's conspiracy!
Meanwhile, the Gu Group.
Gu Yanchuan sat in the conference room, his expression cold and stern.
He stared at the news on the screen, his eyes unreadable.
His uncle... got involved.
“President Gu,” the assistant said cautiously, “Gu Huaishan’s move this time is tantamount to officially intervening in the domestic market. His target is probably not just the Shen family.”
Gu Yanchuan gave a cold laugh, his voice low and deep: "Of course, his target is the entire Gu family."
The assistant felt a chill run down his spine and dared not say another word.
Gu Yanchuan's gaze was calm and indifferent.
Gu Huaishan is his father's younger brother. He was forced to leave the country when he was young due to internal family struggles, but he has accumulated a huge amount of capital overseas over the years. Now, with the help of the Shen family, he wants to make a strong comeback!
"How long can the Lin family's cash flow last?" he suddenly asked.
The assistant hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Although LC Group has injected capital, the Shen family's counterattack has indeed affected the Lin family, and their cash flow will be even tighter in the short term."
Gu Yanchuan's fingertips gently traced the tabletop. After a moment, he slowly spoke, "Make arrangements. I need to see Lin Chuyue."
The assistant was taken aback: "Mr. Gu, you..."
Gu Yanchuan smiled slightly, a deep meaning in his eyes: "It's time to lay some things out in the open."
?
Secret talks in a hotel: alliance or confrontation?
Evening, at the Cloud Top Club in the capital.
Lin Chuyue pushed open the door and saw Gu Yanchuan already sitting by the window, casually holding a glass of red wine, his expression indifferent.
"Long time no see." He looked up, his tone gentle.
Lin Chuyue sneered: "President Gu is so busy, yet you still have time to invite me to dinner?"
Gu Yanchuan calmly put down his wine glass and chuckled, "If I said it was to discuss cooperation, would you believe me?"
Lin Chuyue narrowed her eyes, her tone cold: "Cooperation? Your family is now on the Shen family's side, do you think I'd believe that?"
Gu Yanchuan smiled slightly and slowly said, "Lin Chuyue, do you really think I would side with Shen Qingyuan?"
Lin Chuyue didn't speak, she just looked at him quietly.
Gu Yanchuan chuckled softly, a deep meaning in his eyes: "The reason the Shen family was able to hold on this time is not because Shen Qingyuan is so clever, but because he just happened to hitch a ride on my uncle's coattails."
"But you should know that my relationship with my uncle... is not as simple as outsiders think."
Lin Chuyue tapped the table lightly, her voice calm: "So you came to see me today to tell me that you won't help the Shen family?"
Gu Yanchuan gently shook his head: "No, the reason I came to you today is to ask—whether you are willing to cooperate with me to completely destroy the Shen family?"
Lin Chuyue was slightly taken aback, then narrowed her eyes and slowly asked, "Gu Yanchuan, what exactly is your purpose?"
Gu Yanchuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful smile: "It's very simple... Gu Huaishan wants the entire Gu family, but I will not let him have his way."
Lin Chuyue was silent for a few seconds before slowly speaking: "You want me to help you fight against your uncle?"
“It’s a collaboration.” Gu Yanchuan’s smile remained unchanged. “You want to deal with the Shen family, and I want to completely thwart Gu Huaishan’s plans in China. We share the same goal.”
Lin Chuyue chuckled softly, her gaze icy: "Do you think I can trust you?"
Gu Yanchuan raised an eyebrow: "If I told you that I was willing to secretly provide 10 billion yuan in working capital to help you get through this crisis, would you consider believing me?"
Lin Chuyue's eyes changed slightly.
10……
This sum of money is enough for the Lin family to weather a short-term cash flow crisis!
But would Gu Yanchuan really be that kind?
She stared into Gu Yanchuan's eyes and slowly asked, "What do you want?"
Gu Yanchuan smiled slightly and slowly extended his hand: "It's very simple—from today onwards, we will join forces."
Lin Chuyue's gaze was deep.
join forces?
She didn't agree immediately. Instead, she gently picked up her wine glass, swirled the red wine softly, and smiled faintly. "Let me think about it some more."
She won't trust anyone easily.
But one thing is certain—
This battle among the elite has only just begun!
