Chapter 296: The Incident
Pretending to be a bandit, he kidnapped Simpson, demanded what he needed and recorded it, which was the first step in Li Chen's plan.
And after asking so many valuable things from Simpson's mouth, Li Chen returned home with the recording prepared in advance.
When she got home, Yuan Xinyi hadn't woken up yet.
After Li Chen kissed her lightly on the cheek, he entered the study, and he didn't know what to do. Until dawn,
The next day, as soon as Yuan Xin had class, Li Chen sent her to school and took a taxi to a café.
In a box there, Li Chen sat for more than half a day. During this period, two or three people went in one after another, and then came out in a hurry.
Early the next morning, Eugene's largest morning newspaper, the Eugene Morning Post, published a piece of powerful economic information in a prominent position.
The information said by name that Gaqueiro, the young president of the 'Gamevre' company, had recently illegally embezzled a huge amount of public funds from the company, and was deceived and lost all his money. At present, there is no news of anyone who has fled with the money. In order to close the loophole, Gaqueiro actually borrowed high-interest loans from venture capital companies to fill the hole.
As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a sensation.
The company immediately sent people to refute the rumors, and vowed to be ready to investigate the legal responsibility of the morning newspaper.
But soon, the morning newspaper counterattacked, and came up with several strong evidences in a row, and even the contract signed by the venture capital company and the additional interest clause were clearly described.
At this point, venture capital firms can't sit still. After all, the relevant laws of the United States = China are very strict, and the contract of abnormal economic activities will be strictly controlled by the relevant regulatory authorities, and once violations or violations of the law are detected, the punishment will be very severe.
As a result, the venture capital firm made a move. The associated domino effect immediately made all the rumors of Gamevre suddenly pale.
Public opinion also changed immediately, and the divergent opinions began to become one-sided.
Almost a few days. Major news media also rushed to report on the matter, and even several of the largest newspapers in the United States, such as "Hua = Shengton Post = Newspaper" and "New York Times", also reported these news in some economic sectors.
Gaqueiro's office. He snapped and threw the phone on the floor, shattering. Then he swept the contents of the table to the ground.
The few subordinates standing on the side were silent, their heads bowed, and no one dared to say anything. I wanted to go out, but I didn't dare.
"What about Simpson? This dog mongrel, where the hell did he go? ”
Gaqueiro scolded viciously, and Simpson was gone that night, and he didn't see anyone for days on end, but as his confidant. He naturally knew the news, and at this time, the news suddenly broke out, and the Simpsons were gone, so Gaqueiro was naturally the first to suspect him.
Still no one answered, and even these subordinates could see that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction. And because Gaqueiro is arrogant and domineering on weekdays, many of his colleagues who offended him also took the opportunity to beat the water dogs at this time.
And the effect is obvious, it's not. In just a few trading days, the company's stock fell sharply. In addition, debt collectors and collectors have come one after another, and the company's overall operation has almost come to a standstill. The shareholders couldn't sit still. They came to him. After he pushed a few waves, he simply locked himself in his office for the past two days and never saw anyone again.
Afraid of what comes. It was like a glass of poisoned wine, and it made him feel that the end was near.
And just as this matter continues to ferment. Li Chen, as the biggest black hand, sat comfortably in the farm parlor of Smith, where he once came.
It's just that it's different from the last one. This time, he came with Old Man Yuan, and the person he met was no longer John Smith Jr., but his grandfather, Old Smith.
And the reason why he came here with Old Man Yuan was because Old Man Yuan arrived a few days ago, and he really bragged about Li Chen's planting skills to Old Smith.
As a result, the old Smith, who was quite unconvinced, immediately asked his old friend to invite Li Chen over.
Revisiting the old place again, Li Chen can't talk about his mood.
Of course, he didn't see little Smith, and I don't know if he was hiding on purpose, or if he happened to be not at home.
However, since the last time, this kid has indeed been honest and has not harassed Xin Yi again, otherwise Li Chen would never be polite to him.
I heard that this kid was still the granddaughter and son-in-law of an old friend, and the elder Smith deliberately arranged a sumptuous banquet, at which he and Li Chen exchanged planting experiences.
Although Li Chen is half-, after all, with such a long time of research, coupled with practical experience, some insights are very novel and unique, plus Old Man Yuan is helping on the side, but he also stunned Old Smith.
And in the end, the elder Smith simply asked the question that he was most concerned about.
It was he who heard Mr. Yuan say that Li Chen actually successfully transplanted Pinot Noir grapes suitable for their climate and conditions to his one-third of an acre of land, and he raised them well, he had already seen the photos brought by Mr. Yuan, and asked him how he did it? After all, this grape is very picky about climate and other conditions, and it is a kind of grape that is difficult to grow.
Li Chen immediately spread his hands and made an innocent statement, and told Old Smith in proficient English that this was all the credit of Old Man Yuan, and it had nothing to do with him.
Old Smith and Old Man Yuan looked at each other and smiled, Li Chen's modest character, Old Man Yuan had already mentioned it to Old Smith. As for how easy it is to grow that Pinot Noir, Old Man Yuan never thinks how high his level is? He has lived in Li Chen for so long, although he has not been able to figure out Li Chen's secret, but he has long been able to determine that Li Chen, this kid is absolutely extraordinary, and there must be some special tricks that others don't know.
It is no wonder that a famous college student is willing to take root in the countryside to engage in planting, he must have his own uniqueness.
Therefore, those grapes can grow so well, it must be inseparable from Li Chen's secret skills.
And this time to introduce Li Chen to Old Smith, Old Man Yuan also has several purposes, one is to let Old Smith know one of his attitudes, that is, he has identified this granddaughter and son-in-law, and his little Smith will stop delaying his efforts.
Second, he also hopes that Li Chen can learn from Old Smith, although Li Chen is very powerful, but Old Smith has been farming for so many years, and his experience is naturally very rich. And if Li Chen can comprehend more things because of communicating with him, it will naturally be a great thing.
In addition, there is another purpose, that is, Mr. Yuan hopes that after Li Chen and Old Smith get to know him, especially after getting Smith's approval, he may have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, after all, the two have a very similar career, and if they can cooperate successfully in the future, it will be a good thing for win-win cooperation.
It was precisely because of these purposes that he called Li Chen over. (To be continued......)
