After putting down his phone, Cao Kun's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

Now that we know who is targeting us, things will be much easier from here on out.

He picked up the phone again, found a number, and dialed it directly.

The call was quickly connected, and a pleasant female voice came through the receiver:

"Hey, isn't this our busy, womanizing radish? What brings you to call me today?"

The owner of the voice was Romina from the capital.

Yesterday, Cao Kun repeatedly assured Qian Xining that he had a trump card up his sleeve.

Romina is an extremely important trump card in his hand!

Although his relationship with Romina was not very long.

However, the two got along well and maintained a very good relationship.

More importantly, Romina is also an original shareholder of Yin Fu Tiao Dong, a short video company under Cao Kun.

After Cao Kun merged KK Live and Yin Fu Tiao Dong.

Romina and the Luo family in Beijing behind her naturally acquired a huge stake in the newly merged Kunlun Entertainment.

To put it bluntly, his relationship with Romina was more than just friendship.

More importantly, they are staunch allies with deeply intertwined interests!

Cao Kun chuckled and exchanged a few simple pleasantries with her.

His tone then turned serious, and he told her in detail about the predicament he was currently facing.

After listening quietly on the other end of the phone, Romina's cheerful tone instantly turned cold:

"Don't panic. I'll find out who's behind this and get back to you soon."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Time ticked by in the suffocating wait.

After about half an hour of anxious waiting, Romina called back.

"Cao Kun, this is a huge problem."

Romina's voice was low.

"It's not He Yinan at all; he's not that high-class."

It was the head of the He family who personally gave the order.

Cao Kun was taken aback upon hearing this.

It turns out that this whole thing had absolutely nothing to do with He Yinan.

No wonder I hadn't received a single word beforehand.

Romina continued to share the inside information she had gathered:

"The head of the He family has actually been overseas for a while and hasn't been involved in domestic affairs much."

This time, for some reason, he suddenly used his connections at the highest levels, which led to the regulators taking action against you.

"But don't worry, I've already used my family connections."

I've already spoken to some of the managers and supervisors who are close to my family.

They promised not to go too far.

At this point, Romina's tone carried a hint of apology.

"I'm sorry, Cao Kun, but the rank of the He family head is simply too high."

He personally exerted pressure, so even my father couldn't directly confront him.

That's all I can do for you right now.

Cao Kun said sincerely, "No way."

I am already extremely grateful that you have helped me to this extent at this time.

Once this crisis is over, I will definitely fly to Beijing in person to express my sincere gratitude to you.

"By the way, you just said they wouldn't go too far, what exactly did you mean?"

Romina solemnly replied, "Multiple departments, including the China Banking Regulatory Commission, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and the Economic Crime Investigation Department..."

A joint investigation team has been formed to conduct special supervision.

They will be moving into your company tomorrow to conduct an indefinite business suspension and investigation.

Romina sighed, "I'm not high enough to stop this investigation team from being formed."

But I have already spoken with several key personnel in the investigation team.

They will appropriately relax the scrutiny, and will not deliberately fabricate charges; it's just a formality.

Upon hearing this, Cao Kun's heart sank:

"So, in other words, Kunlun Capital's suspension of operations for restructuring is inevitable, no matter what?"

This news completely disrupted all his subsequent plans.

Kunlun Capital has completed all the preparations for this round of silver price surge.

If it is suddenly halted now, Kunlun Capital will not only miss out on huge profits, but may even suffer heavy losses due to default.

"Is there really absolutely no room for compromise?"

Cao Kun frowned, still wanting to make one last effort.

Romina's tone was tinged with helplessness: "Cao Kun, there really is no way to deal with this."

The investigation team was of such high caliber that no one dared to oppose them at this time.

I have done my best.

She also felt somewhat guilty for not being able to help Cao Kun this time.

But she has indeed done the best she can at the moment.

Cao Kun heard the self-reproach in her tone and realized that he had lost his composure.

He quickly composed himself and said sincerely:

"Mina, please don't say that."

You've already done me a huge favor.

I, Cao Kun, will remember this kindness.

I'll figure out the rest myself.

After thanking Romina again, Cao Kun hung up the phone.

After putting down his phone, Cao Kun's face was gloomy, his brows furrowed, and he remained silent.

Su Yue, who had overheard the entire conversation, also felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

She reached up and rubbed her throbbing temples, her mind racing with various strategies.

A moment later, a resolute glint flashed in her eyes.

Su Yue stepped forward and made an extremely bold suggestion:

"Boss, since you insist on closing down for rectification, let's just cut our losses and do the dirty work."

"Get all the traders in the investment department out of the area before the investigation team arrives tomorrow!"

She spoke rapidly: "My plan is to divide my traders into four independent groups."

They traveled to Europe, the United States, Japan, and Hong Kong respectively.

Operate your account directly locally.

"However, this has a drawback."

Because of the great distance, we simply cannot manage it centrally.

Once overseas, the four groups had to fight their own battles.

Therefore, to mitigate risks, they will likely operate in a relatively conservative manner.

A significant portion of funds must be set aside as a safety net.

This will cause us to lose a significant amount of profit margin.

Cao Kun quickly weighed the pros and cons.

Five full minutes passed before he suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"Sacrificing a pawn to save the chariot is a last resort."

Losing some profits is better than not earning a single penny.

"We'll do it your way; that's all we can do for now."

Cao Kun suddenly stood up, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes:

"Get Xiao Li over here! We need to get things arranged before the investigation team arrives!"

Su Yue turned and walked out of the office.

Not long after, Xiao Li strode in.

As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to speak:

"Boss, great news! I've found out who's behind this sabotage against us!"

Cao Kun was in a hurry to explain things to him, so he casually waved his hand:

"No need to say anything, I already know. It's He Jiaqian from the capital."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li's pupils dilated, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

I had gone to great lengths to find out the inside story, but I never expected that the boss already knew it all along!
