"But... there's a very important point here!" Fang Tong said at this moment, "All this is based on the assumption that Chaoyang Group can quickly re-establish its scientific research advantage! This point, I believe the president of Chaoyang Group is very clear about!"

"And what does that have to do with us?" Zhao Yu was still somewhat confused.

Fang Tong said indifferently, "When Chaoyang Group was embroiled in the leak scandal, many companies stopped working with Chaoyang Group. In other words, Chaoyang Group now needs the support of a large number of external companies! This is our opportunity!"

"Scientific research and development require a considerable amount of money, and Chaoyang Group has the technology but does not have the products to turn that technology into cash!" Fang Tong chuckled, "So, we just need to acquire those patent technologies through our operations, and we could mass-produce products at a large scale. Don't you all agree that this is a fast track to getting rich?"

This was what running a business was all about! Several young masters began to understand. They had previously served as consultants for some businesses, but it was just a nominal role for the money. However, Fang Tong's words caused everyone to feel a bit apprehensive; they truly had no foundation in operating a business.

"Can the profit really be that big?" Sun Ye asked with some doubt.

"Larger than you can imagine!" Fang Tong sneered, "Previously, an international pharmaceutical company adopted a biopurification technology from Chaoyang Group, which directly helped them reduce their costs by thirty percent, saving tens of billions. Just imagine the explosive potential in that!"

"Holy cow, that's awesome!" Sun Ye's eyes went wide.

Fang Tong stated, "Of course, science and technology are the primary productive forces! We don't want to take over Chaoyang Group; we see it as a goose that lays golden eggs. What we need is just to get a hold of Chaoyang Group's patent technology, and then we can make a fortune with these patents!"

Listening to Fang Tong's words, everyone looked at each other, and then a light of excitement flashed in their eyes. Fang Tong had undoubtedly pointed out a lucrative path for them.

"Alright then, what do we need to do?" Chen Dong licked his lips and said, "I'm in!"

"I'm in too!" Sun Ye chuckled, "I've realized that using one's brain is way cooler than just hustling!"

"Count me in as well!"

Watching everyone state their support one after another, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Fang Tong's mouth. With the backing of these young masters, his plan would be implemented smoothly.

Just then, Fang Tong's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, then walked aside to answer.

"What's the matter? How's it going?" Fang Tong asked in a low voice.

"Young Master Fang, it's bad news! Zhang Long has botched it!" A man's voice whispered over the phone.

Fang Tong frowned, "Zhang Long botched it? How could he possibly screw up? Didn't Chen Feng say the guy was just an undergraduate student?"

"It was because the people from Flame Hall showed up!" And then the man recounted the whole story.

"Flame Hall! Wei Meizi, you wretched bitch!" After hanging up, Fang Tong's eyes flashed with intense anger, "Fine, fine, just wait until I have time to strike back; I will make sure you taste the flavor of despair! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're backed by the Ye Family! The Ye Family has faded into obscurity; it's not their world now! Hmph!"

"However, now that Zhao Bing has already threatened Chen Feng, Chen Feng's actions must be accelerated!" Fang Tong stroked his chin, "It would be just right to take this opportunity to let this energetic gang of young masters stir things up. I'm sure it will hasten the realization of my plan!"

…

The next day, when Chen Feng saw Zhao Bing arrive at the company, his face revealed an uncontrollable look of shock and panic!

He had not expected Zhao Bing to appear before him, completely unharmed.

Having spent the entire day in unease, Chen Feng always felt like Zhao Bing was scrutinizing him with an examining gaze, which made him very anxious.

However, fortunately, as the day went by, nothing happened, which allowed Chen Feng to breathe a little easier.

"Could it be that I've been overly anxious?" Chen Feng returned home, and as he looked at his somewhat weathered face in the mirror, he couldn't help but sigh.

"You haven't been overly anxious!" Suddenly, a stranger's voice emerged from behind Chen Feng.

Chen Feng's body shook, he quickly turned around, and saw a very familiar back view sitting on the living room sofa.

"Who... who are you? How did you get into my house? This is illegal entry!" Chen Feng said somewhat nervously.

"Chen Feng, Director Chen, you should recognize me, right!" At this, the man raised his head, revealing a handsome visage.

"You are... You are President Yun's..." Chen Feng hesitated in his speech.

The man sitting was naturally Ling Feng, who looked at Chen Feng and said, "My name is Ling Feng, I am Xiao Rui's childhood friend, and also her boyfriend! Now you understand, don't you?"

A sense of dread settled in Chen Feng's heart, as he felt a kind of authoritative pressure emanating from Ling Feng.

"So it's Mr. Ling, may I ask what brings you here?" Chen Feng said while taking out a drink from the fridge and handing it to Ling Feng, trying to appear nonchalant.

Ling Feng looked at Chen Feng with amusement, then suddenly smiled, "Chen Feng, you indeed have talent, it's just a pity, you've taken the wrong path!"

"Mr. Ling, I don't understand what you mean!" Chen Feng seriously responded, "Moreover, I don't think breaking into someone's home reflects the conduct of a gentleman, what do you think?"

Ling Feng shook his head and then tossed over a file folder, saying, "Smart people all have one characteristic, they are stubborn to the end! I think you should look at the contents inside, only then it will be necessary for us to continue this conversation."

Looking at the file folder on the table, an ominous premonition flashed through Chen Feng's heart. He took a deep breath, picked up the folder, and pulled out the documents inside.

Once he saw the text on the documents, his face turned ashen.

It detailed not only the financial tampering he had done in recent days, but also his family information was spelled out clearly! It even included things like his elementary school classmates, first love, and his parents' social relationships...

The further he read, the uglier Chen Feng's expression became, and his hands trembled more violently!

"Mr. Ling, I..." Chen Feng raised his head, his eyes filled with shock and pleading.

Ling Feng smiled lightly, "Finished reading? Do you think there's anything that needs to be added?"

With a thud, Chen Feng kneeled on the ground, "Mr. Ling, this was all my doing, it has nothing to do with my family or parents, please, you are a magnanimous person, can you spare my family members?"

Having been given the dossier by Ling Feng, Chen Feng already understood that if he admitted his wrongdoing, there was still a glimmer of hope. But if he kept making excuses, he feared including his relatives, everyone would encounter unexpected accidents beyond imagination!
