Chapter Seventy: Taking Action Against Yang Sen
The next afternoon, Zhou Qing, the newly recruited general manager of the wood trading company, and Wen Fusheng, the technical director, walked into Guo Yu's office. Guo Yu said to them, "The company temporarily has no office location, so we can only meet here today, but I hope that next time, we can have a meeting in the wood company's office, which will require the efforts of both of you."
"I have allocated HK$500 million to operate the company, my goal is to set up a headquarters in Hong Kong for management, and then establish sales points in mainland China and Southeast Asia. Our main product is agarwood, and later we may add other high-end wood materials. General Manager Wen has done extensive research on high-end wood and current market trends, I'm not sure if General Manager Zhou is familiar with agarwood." Guo Yu asked, looking at Zhou Qing.
"Chairman, I did some homework yesterday and roughly understood the situation of agarwood," Zhou Qing replied.
"It's roughly understood, your task is to set up the company and sales situation, the specifics can be learned later. The technical aspect will mainly be handled by Director Wen, so there shouldn't be any major issues." Gu Yu shared his ideas with the two of them and asked them to quickly set up the company and start operating the business, while he would take care of sourcing goods, they only needed to focus on sales. At the same time, Gu Yu also contacted Bai Qilin, telling him that he had started a wood trading company and would develop and operate domestically in the future, hoping that the other party would show favor, and the two could cooperate, with specific cooperation details to be discussed by the company's general manager.
The company was handed over to Zhou Qing, and Guo Yu didn't care anymore. As an economics and management undergraduate who could start his own company, he thought that a PhD like her shouldn't be worse than him.
Guo Yu has been busy with company matters these days, not that he forgot about Yang Sen, but he's just waiting for things to calm down for a while before making his move. If he acts now, the danger will be much smaller. The conflict between him and Yang Sen has never surfaced, so others don't even know of his existence. Even if they investigate the company, there won't be any evidence. Besides, they're not some regular company, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble for him.
Inside the Hong Kong Empire Club, the lights were dazzling, and men and women in cool attire were swaying their bodies to the DJ's beat. In a private room, a man was holding down a young celebrity's head, his body shaking non-stop, losing strength in less than three minutes. He flung away the young star's head, lay on the leather sofa, and without any disguise, picked up a beer from the table and started drinking.
Xiao Ming Xing spat a few times in the trash can, with a look of disdain in his eyes. However, when he lifted his head, he suddenly became smiling and said: "Yang Shao is so fierce, it made my mouth swollen, I won't be able to sing on stage tomorrow, what should we do? You have to compensate me."
Yang Sen took a sip of wine and said, "You just want to have a good ranking on the annual chart, don't worry, I'll take care of it. I'll arrange for someone to help you get into the top ten, no problem. Our Emperor Entertainment is the best entertainment company in Hong Kong, so follow me and everything will be fine."
Yang Sen's words made Xiao Ming a star with a smile, feeling that he had been humiliated for half a day, and it was worth doing if Yang Sen wasn't the son of Yang Shou Cheng and the prince of Emperor Ying.
After lying down for a while, Yang Sen felt that he had rested enough and got up to put on his pants and head out. Xiao Ming Xing quickly followed him, and the two of them walked into the noisy dance floor, jumping up with the lively crowd. However, he didn't know that a pair of black eyes were staring at him from a corner of the bar.
Yang Sen, who was tired of playing, drove away the little star and prepared to go to his friend's place to take a few puffs of energy. Since his purpose had been achieved, the little star naturally did not want to continue accompanying this rich young master and happily returned home.
Yang Sen walked to the roadside parking area, which was 210 meters away from Di Bar. As soon as he approached his car, he pressed the anti-theft alarm button. A figure appeared beside him, and Yang Sen turned around to see a tall figure wearing a hat, whose face was obscured. Yang Sen cursed, "What are you doing sneaking up behind people at night? Are you trying to scare me to death?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man suddenly stretched out his hand, and Yang Sen found that his car had disappeared. Frightened, Yang Sen opened his mouth to shout loudly, but before he could make a sound, the tall figure grabbed his arm and in an instant, they appeared in a bedroom.
Yang Sen was frightened, his teeth chattering uncontrollably, unable to make a sound, his body went limp and he collapsed to the ground. The lights in the room were shining brightly, and he had already realized that this tall man was Guo Yu.
Guo Yu was still observing Yang Sen's reaction, he didn't know if Yang Sen was frightened to the point of paralysis or if he had been affected by the crossing and gone soft, it was also possible that both were true. Anyway, he directly took out a handgun, aimed at Yang Sen's head and said: "If you don't want to die, answer my questions."
"Mr. Guo, we don't have any grudges, please don't hurt me. My father is Yang Shoucheng, our family is very wealthy. If you want money, I can call my dad and he'll give it to you. What do you say?" Yang Sen knew that his own affairs had been discovered by the other party, who must have investigated Guo Yu's situation. The other party was taking revenge on him, but he couldn't imagine how fierce their reaction would be, daring to kidnap him directly.
"Do you think I'm short of money? Your family's total assets are only about 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is not enough for my expenses for a few months. Do you think I would kidnap you for money? You underestimate me, Mr. Yang. First, tell me why you investigated me and what connections you used. If you explain clearly, you might still have a chance to live." Gu Yu waved his gun and let Yang Sen stand up.
Yang Sen quickly got up and stood straight, only then did Guo Yu confirm that the kid had been scared stiff and fallen to the ground, he himself should be fine, it seemed his guess was right, taking him along shouldn't be a problem, thinking this far a smile appeared on his face.
Yang Sen saw Guo Yu reveal a smile, thinking that Guo Yu was going to take action and kill him. He quickly said: "Mr. Guo, don't take action, I'll say it, I'm the one who spent my own money, secretly hiring two batches of investigation companies to investigate your auction house and Huang's trading company."
"What do you want to do?" Guo Yu asked.
Yang Sen hesitated for a while before saying, "It's just to investigate whether the company has evaded taxes or operated irregularly. If they have, report it directly. If not, let them provide the company's transaction data and trade documents, and find fault with you from there, disrupting your business."
"You little rascal, you've got a lot of wicked ideas, your revengeful heart is not small at all. Is it just because of Huang Wenjing's matter? Is it worth you putting so much thought into it? I'm very angry now, tell me what can make me change my mind and spare you. Don't even mention the money." Gu Yu said with a teasing tone.
After thinking for half a day, Yang Sen still didn't know what else he could use to move Guo Yu's heart besides asking his family for money. Alas, this is the sorrow of being a prodigal son - once they encounter something big and leave their family's protection, they are useless and can't even save themselves in the most basic way.
