Magic City.

In the Donghua Group headquarters building next to the Huangpu River.

Kong Zhaolin looked exhausted after dealing with several parts suppliers before returning to his office. He rubbed his temples, picked up the cold coffee beside him and took a sip: "Huh..."

Without Wu Heguang in charge, the various factions within the entire Donghua Group made Kong Zhaolin feel physically and mentally exhausted.

"Mr. Kong."

"Come in."

Huang Kang, the vice president responsible for communicating with the acceptance company, walked in with a document and reported with an ugly face:

"Mr. Kong, Kaile Company requires the two acceptance companies to conduct a final acceptance inspection. If the equipment cannot be guaranteed to meet the standards, Kaile Company will decide to sue our company in accordance with the contract."

"Why did they change their mind?" Kong Zhaolin was almost numb.

Huang Kang spread his hands helplessly: "Mr. Kong, they are also anxious! But our equipment has not been able to pass the acceptance inspection. They are very doubtful about our technology."

"Damn it! What went wrong?" Kong Zhaolin grabbed his hair in pain.

The two talked for a while and felt that continuing like this was not the answer, but there was no solution. The initiative now lies in the hands of Kaile Company.

Looking at the sunset outside the window, Kong Zhaolin felt a sense of powerlessness at the end of the road.

"I'm tired. I'll convene a meeting with the company's executives at the headquarters tomorrow. That's it for today!"

Huang Kang consoled him: "Don't be discouraged, Mr. Kong. Maybe the equipment will be inspected and accepted in a few days. You still have to pay attention to your health. The company now depends on Mr. Kong."

"Thank you, Mr. Huang, for your concern. See you tomorrow." Kong Zhaolin replied weakly.

After the two said goodbye.

The upset Kong Zhaolin drove his Tesla and prepared to go back home to be clean and tidy.

After stopping at the traffic light intersection for a while, he seemed to feel that the traffic light countdown was a bit slow today, which made him feel a little annoyed.

The flow of people and vehicles on this section of road is relatively small, which is related to the relatively remote location of the headquarters of Donghua Group.

When the light finally turned green, he stepped on the accelerator and accelerated forward. However, the speed of other vehicles in his sight became a little slower.

Kong Zhaolin felt that his speed was only about 40, which made him subconsciously step on the accelerator.

Not far away is the turning lane.

When the surrounding car owners saw the Tesla speeding past, they immediately began to curse.

"Depend on!"

"Driving so fast, are you rushing to reincarnate?"

"He's finished. Normal people can't pass this kind of curve at this speed."

"Tesla again?"

"Damn it! Why don't you slow down?"

Kong Zhaolin's Tesla suddenly rushed onto the sidewalk, then hit the guardrail and plunged into the Huangpu River.

The surrounding car owners and pedestrians were stunned.

Huang Kang, who had not yet left the headquarters building, had just finished calling Li Xinyi at the equipment manufacturing factory when he saw his secretary hurried in.

The secretary said in a panic: "Mr. Huang, Mr. Kong's wife just called and asked if Mr. Kong drove home?"

"Yeah? What's wrong?" Huang Kang replied confused.

Gulu! The secretary's face turned even paler: "Someone called Mr. Kong's wife just now, saying that Mr. Kong's car lost control and rushed into the Huangpu River."

"What? Are you kidding me?" Huang Kang was startled.

But the secretary shook her head desperately: "It's true."

Huang Kang sat blankly, why did he feel that Donghua Group was unlucky enough to open the door for him recently - extremely unlucky.

The secretary looked at him with a bewildered face, waiting for him, the company's highest-ranking vice president, to make a decision.

After being distracted for a while, Huang Kang first made a few calls to confirm whether the matter was true or false. He would not dare to report it to Wu Heguang and Wu Xinlan before confirming it.

Finally, more than two hours later, the car was picked up.

Huang Kang and Kong Zhaolin's wife rushed to the scene. The moment they saw the license plate, Kong Zhaolin's wife immediately blacked out.

Huang Kang slowly pulled away the white cloth with trembling hands. When he saw the pale and familiar face under the white cloth, he quickly covered it back.

Then he nodded to the police officer on the side: "He is Kong Zhaolin."

"Then please, Mr. Huang, please cooperate with our investigation. We would like to know the recent situation of the deceased."

Huang Kang nodded: "No problem."

After taking notes for more than an hour, Huang Kang came out and saw Kong Zhaolin's family members crying bitterly. He had no choice but to comfort him despite his exhaustion.

As soon as he walked out of the door and wanted to drive home, he stopped suddenly and took out his mobile phone to call a driver.

Apparently Huang Kang was too frightened to drive while fatigued.

When I got home, I quickly called Wu Xinlan.

Wu Xinlan was extremely shocked when she heard the news and said that she would return to Shanghai as soon as possible to take charge of the company's work.

But at noon the next day, Kong Zhaolin's father called Wu Heguang, causing Wu Heguang to know the news. Suddenly Wu Heguang couldn't stand the stimulation, and he had another cerebral hemorrhage and was admitted to the intensive care unit.

But in fact, Wu Heguang did know that Kong Zhaolin was dead, but he was still alive and kicking. After all, the biochip could forcibly control his body, making it difficult to suffer a cerebral hemorrhage.

In the afternoon of that day, it was declared that the rescue of "Vu Heguang" was ineffective, and the body was parked in the morgue of Ipoh Hospital.

Wu Heguang looked at "his" body with a very ugly face, but he was extremely desperate, because at this time he had been transformed into a lonely old man cleaning in Ipoh Hospital. He only knew everything about the real world. You can see but not interfere.

In the past few days, he suffered unprecedented despair. His life was controlled like a marionette, and he thought about suicide all the time.

It's a pity that the biochip in his brain is constantly monitoring his every move, and even actively controls his body to do things.

Just after the death of "Vu Heguang", Yang Tiancheng, on behalf of the Yang family, and Du Shuping and others, personally came to Ipoh Hospital to take a look at Wu Heguang's body, and then went back to report truthfully.

Wu Xinlan, on the other hand, immediately decided to incinerate the body on the spot in Xiangjiang on the grounds that it would be very troublesome to send the body back to the mainland.

The Donghua Group, which was already in internal chaos at this time, and some of the Wu family's descendants who were eyeing Wu Heguang's legacy did not object to this matter.

Of course, these Wu children are not interested in Donghua Group's shares, mainly because Donghua Group is now facing a bankruptcy crisis.

In this weird atmosphere.

Wu Xinlan and Gao Ming returned to the Magic City headquarters a few days later, and finally managed to stabilize the Donghua Group.

At the same time, Wu Xinlan started stock repurchases. Soon she took back the stocks from the company's executives and some shareholders. Together with some of the stocks she held, she occupied 11.3% of Donghua Group's shares and became a public figure. the second largest shareholder.

Since Wu Heguang has been "dead" in the legal sense, Wu Xinlan has now become the actual chairman of Donghua Group.

This series of changes did not bring Donghua Group's stock price back to life.

After all, it was already May 26, and there were only 16 days left before the contract deadline for Kaile Company.

No one believes that Donghua Group can complete the contract within the deadline. Everyone is waiting for Donghua Group to fall. They are like vultures hovering in the air, ready to carve up the corpse of Donghua Group.

However, on the stock market, Donghua Group's stock price fell below 1 yuan. At this time, there was still a certain trading volume, mainly selling.

The Financial Office of the Internal Affairs Department only spent tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars to receive a lot of stocks and increase its shareholding to 53.2%.

Subtracting the 34% frozen in Wu Heguang's name and the 11.3% in Wu Xinlan's hands, only 1.5% of the outstanding shares on the market are left.

If Li Qingye announces his shareholding amount at this time, Donghua Group will instantly trigger the forced delisting clause.
