“CEO Bai, what do we do now?”

The assistant walked to CEO Bai’s side, his face filled with worry.

The furious CEO Bai only found him annoying. “Get lost, get lost! You’re an eyesore.”

Loud curses echoed in the office. The assistant was bullied, and no one in the company dared to help him.

Faced with this situation, the assistant could only leave awkwardly.

When the surroundings were quiet, CEO Bai began to regret it. He regretted it bitterly.

Not only did CEO Bai buy stocks, but he had used the company’s public funds to buy them.

If this was discovered, his future would be doomed.

…

“Embezzlement?”

Lance was on the phone with Albert.

“Yes.” Lance nodded. “Do you think those companies can spend tens of millions, even hundreds of millions, on stocks in a short period of time?”

“The only explanation is that they’re embezzling the company’s public funds. They want to make up for the shortfall after they earn money. Nice try.”

When Lance finished his explanation, Albert laughed.

“Pfft, these idiots. Some of them probably haven’t come back to their senses yet. They still don’t know that you tricked them.”

Lance smiled helplessly.

“I think you have to check out your companies too.” He paused. “After all, there are many companies monitoring me. Who can guarantee that your companies have not participated in this gamble at all?”

Albert was stunned. “You’re right. Then we’ll stop talking. I’ll check it out now.”

With that, he hung up in a hurry.

In the other place, after Albert hung up, he hurriedly called his assistant.

“Find out something for me.”

“Find out which companies have embezzled public funds to invest in stocks that caused problems with the company’s funds.”

“Gather the information and pass it to me immediately after you’re done. I want to see it today.”

Albert crossed his arms. When he was done checking, he could also see if the competitor company was in it.

Not only could he eliminate the cancer in his own company, but he could see the jokes of those competitor companies, and had the best of both worlds.

At the same time, Albert admired Lance’s ability even more.

Lance was the first person to be able to fool these companies.

…

Albert’s assistant was fast. Within three hours, the assistant had summarized the information he had found and placed it on Albert’s desk.

Albert began to flip through the information. As Lance had suspected, there were companies under his family.

However, there were not many. There were only two or three.

This relieved Albert. He was in a better mood to watch the bustle of the competitor companies.

Towards the end, a pile of information about the losses of the competitor companies was displayed.

“A bunch of idiots playing with fire.”

Albert smiled. He was in a very good mood.

After reading the information, Albert sent Lance a few more messages.

“Thank you. Once we work together, you’ve done me a huge favor.”

“When you have problems to settle, remember to look for me. I’ll definitely do my best.”

After sending the message, Albert’s lips were still curled up slightly.

However, one family was happy while the other was worried.

Albert was overjoyed. His competitor companies were in chaos.

In the high-level meeting room, the higher-ups were all frowning.

“Who is secretly helping the BeiSi Corporation? It can’t be a brat. That brat must be out to take the bullet.”

“I didn’t expect Albert to be so powerful. He has the guidance of an expert behind him. He’s indeed different.”

“I think we should find out who the expert behind Albert is and take the opportunity to rope in the expert behind him to us.”

“Yes! You’re right. No matter what the price is, we have to do this. Otherwise, we’ll lose a lot this time. The next time the company is hurt, it’ll be irreparable.”

“I agree with that idea!”

“I agree too!”

“…”

The result of a bunch of higher-ups’ discussions was to pry.

After they finished speaking, their gazes landed on the main seat, waiting for the CEO to give an answer.

After a moment, the young man at the head of the table spoke slowly.

“I agree with you.”

“Assistant, go and find out who the expert behind Albert is.”

The higher-ups present heaved a sigh of relief. If the CEO was willing to investigate, it meant that he believed them.

This way, when they roped in the expert behind Albert, they would no longer be afraid of being screwed.

“Knock knock knock!”

After a long moment, the CEO’s assistant knocked on the door.

The CEO said calmly, “Come in.”

The assistant entered the meeting room looking hesitant.

“Assistant Li, what happened?”

“Why are you still hesitating? Didn’t you find out?”

“I don’t think so. Did Albert hide the expert that well?”

“Hurry up and say it. Stop dilly-dallying.”

“…”

Amidst the various urgings, the assistant spoke silently.

“CEO, I’ve only found out some vague things. I’m not 100% sure about the expert behind Albert.”

“I realized that some time ago, Albert helped Lance and his brother-in-law, Shen Mulin, get an office building. I suspect that the person behind Albert…”

“It’s Shen Mulin!”

The assistant spoke more firmly, and a hint of doubt flashed across the CEO’s eyes.

“But it was Lance who tricked that group of companies.” He took the opportunity to raise a question.

“No.” The assistant shook his head affirmatively. “Shen Mulin is Lance’s brother-in-law. He must be using Lance to confuse us.”

“And as far as I know, Lance and Shen Mulin often appear together. This move is really strange. But combined with what I just found out, on second thought, there’s nothing strange.”

After the assistant finished speaking, the higher-ups in the meeting room looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

They all felt that Lance was just a child. How could he know these things? Even if he knew a little, it was Shen Mulin who taught him.

“Good.”

The CEO ordered, “Send someone to contact Shen Mulin. We must rope him into our company.”

“This matter can only succeed. You can’t fail!”

…

While Shen Mulin was drinking tea at home, there was another knock on the door.

Is it someone from the Market Regulatory Bureau again?

He swallowed his saliva, remembering that he hadn’t done anything earth-shattering with Lance recently. He opened the door.

“Hello, Mr. Shen. We’re from Chuanhe Company.”

“I’m the manager of Chuanhe Company. Just call me Little Zhang.”

The other party was respectful and lowered his status.

Shen Mulin was confused. Chuanhe Company?

He had no idea why this company would suddenly come looking for him.

But out of courtesy, he invited him in.

As soon as he sat down, Manager Zhang took out a card from his pocket and pushed it to Shen Mulin.

“Mr. Shen, here’s 5 million yuan.”

“I hope you can work for Chuanhe in the future.”

“I believe in your judgment. You should know that after joining Chuanhe, your future is limitless,” Manager Zhang said very casually.

He felt that it was very easy to rope in Shen Mulin to Chuanhe.

However, after hearing Manager Zhang’s words, Shen Mulin was dumbfounded.

“No, why are you looking for me?”
