It's impossible for them to kill anyone, but if the Bao Group's cargo hold is struck by lightning, then it can only be considered that the Bao Group is unlucky, right?
“No need.” Andy smiled and said, “I’m just describing the situation to you. Actually, we are already very confident of victory because the shares of the Bao Group that we hold are very close to the Bao family being the major shareholder. As long as Lao Tan acquires the shares from the two smaller shareholders, everything will be fine.”
“Once we hold more shares than the Bao family and become the largest shareholder of the Bao Group, the entire Bao Group will be like dough in our hands. We can knead it however we want, and we have plenty of ways to deal with them.”
Given that the Bao Group is operating well, it is clearly impossible for Bai Ye, Andy, and Tan Zongming to kill them with just a couple of blows.
The opportunity they were targeting was not the meager gains from shorting the Bao Group, but the possibility of swallowing the Bao Group whole.
Bao's Group, as a traditional enterprise, is listed on the A-share market. Bao's Group is the largest shareholder, but its shareholding ratio does not exceed 30%.
Andy and Tan Zongming, through large-scale short selling, undermined the capital market's confidence in the Bao Group. They then exposed various scandals involving the Bao Group, followed by major hidden dangers. Through various means, they drove the Bao Group's stock price to its lowest point. At this time, they began to quietly acquire cheap shares of the Bao Group, including the shares held by small and medium-sized shareholders. They proceeded cautiously, step by step, with the ultimate goal of holding more shares than the Bao family and ideally controlling the Bao Group.
Once Andy becomes the largest shareholder of the Bao Group, he will be able to use a board vote to remove Bao's father from the position of chairman of the Bao Group and Bao Yifan from the position of president of the Bao Group, gradually reducing the Bao family's influence over the Bao Group, and ultimately forcing the Bao family to sell their shares in the Bao Group to Andy at a low price. Thus, a hostile takeover will be finally completed.
Generally speaking, there is no short-selling mechanism in the A-share market. However, even if the A-share market does not have a short-selling mechanism, it is still possible to short sell through margin trading.
"Oh, never mind then. I'm too lazy to make the trip."
Bai Ye shrugged.
This is what happened to Bao Yifan, that kid who wanted to be a minotaur warrior.
I am Baiye, a pure love warrior, and I hate Tauren warriors the most. One slash and you're a Tauren is dead!
Look at that kid, what can he do without the Bao Group as his support?
After the Bao Group was acquired, Bao Yifan and others simply took some money and lived a life of leisure and luxury.
In this real world, money without power is nothing. When others want to take you down, even a wealthy idler is just a piece of meat in their hands.
My neighbor hoards grain, I hoard guns; my neighbor is my granary.
"Don't be so impulsive," Andy said. "We absolutely cannot do anything illegal! Right now, our position is such that we can attack or defend as needed. We absolutely cannot risk our lives for the sake of recklessness."
Andy and Tan Zongming have already made a fortune by shorting the Bao Group. As for whether they can acquire the Bao Group... If they can, that would be ideal. If not, they can still use the money they made from shorting to make a clean break and profit without any risk.
"When I say 'creating a crisis,' I don't mean I'm going to kidnap people or anything... Anyway, you know I have the ability to make things bigger without breaking the law. If the Bao Group's acquisition doesn't go smoothly, I should be able to help out."
Bai Ye said.
As for the specifics, I cannot say more to Andy.
She's just an ordinary person; knowing too much won't do her any good.
"Oh."
Andy nodded thoughtfully.
She had always felt that Bai Ye's background was somewhat mysterious, and even a financial tycoon like Tan Zongming treated Bai Ye with unusual attitude.
“Since Tan Zongming has taken care of the other miscellaneous matters, and we’re just idling around anyway, why don’t I help you stretch?” Bai Ye stepped forward, gently embraced Andy, and said seriously, “Your muscles and bones are still very malleable. I’ll help you stretch, and doing the splits won’t be a problem in the future.”
"Doing the splits? I can't do that..."
Andy quickly refused.
"Never underestimate yourself. Before you've been developed, you have no idea how much potential you have." Bai Ye said confidently, "Believe me, I'm a professional in this area. If I say you can do the splits, you can do the splits."
And so.
When Andy went to work, he was walking with a limp.
They ran into Tan Zongming.
Tan Zongming's expression was somewhat strange. He looked at Andy for a long time before saying:
"Andy, I know you've gotten addicted to this kind of thing, but you still need to learn to control yourself. You can't ruin your health."
These words made Andy blush with embarrassment, but she didn't know how to explain it. After all, she knew that no one would believe her if she said anything like that.
But then she felt that if she didn't say anything, others would probably make their final judgment, so she forced herself to save face and said:
"This is from when Bai Ye taught me martial arts. He taught me the splits..."
"Alright, that's enough." Tan Zongming said, as if he already understood. "Come with me. We've become the major shareholder of the Bao Group now and have the upper hand. This battle is over. Next, it's time for me to figure out how to wrap things up with the Bao Group."
Andy could only take a deep breath and clench her fists. If Bai Ye were right in front of her, she really wanted to go up and give him a few good punches.
What kind of splits are you talking about...?
fraud!
I no longer believe what you say.
……
Inside the Bao family mansion.
"Does that mean we're already beyond saving?"
"Father Bao asked in a deep voice."
His trip to the beach wasn't a big deal in itself, but he never expected that so many things would happen to the entire Bao Group as soon as he came out, creating a climate of fear and unease.
"How dare you say that? It's all your fault, you old codger!"
With tears streaming down her face, Mrs. Bao said bitterly to Mr. Bao:
"If you hadn't gone out and gotten caught, would all this have happened?"
“I’ve said it before, I wasn’t just drifting around!” Mr. Bao said irritably. “Someone set a trap for me. Even without me, something will definitely happen somewhere else.”
“Without you causing this trouble, they wouldn’t have been able to find such a big problem with us,” Mrs. Bao said. “Even now, you’re still trying to shirk responsibility.”
"Yes, I'm no good, but do you think your son is any better?" Mr. Bao stood up angrily, pointed at Bao Yifan, and said, "He's a playboy, he's slept with countless women, including many who already have boyfriends or husbands. If they target him, how could he not get into trouble?"
"So, you went out to wander and ended up protecting our son from disaster, and I should be thanking you instead?"
Mrs. Bao gave a cold laugh.
"You shrew, why do you always misinterpret my meaning?" Mr. Bao said angrily. "I did make a mistake, but what about you? Don't forget, it was you who dealt us the fatal blow! It was that video that completely exposed our superficial harmony to the public. The Bao family is just a couple who wish each other dead. How can you expect people to trust the Bao Group, to buy its stock?"
"You're the one who forced me to this point!" Mrs. Bao stood up and yelled at Mr. Bao, "When we got married, you were just a useless nobody! I was there for you, step by step, building the Bao Group into what it is today. I was wholeheartedly devoted to the good of this family, but what about you? You turned bad after you got rich, going out and finding random women! You were the one who wronged me first! You were the one who wronged me!"
“Yes, I was the one who wronged you first! But didn’t I say later that we would divorce, and I would give you 60% of the family property? I was the one at fault.” Mr. Bao said, “But what did you do? You made a scene, refusing to divorce me, clinging to me like glue! After I got sick, I was filled with the fear of death, and you had to stab me in the back at that moment, mocking me to my face, usurping my power in the company. I almost died of anger in the hospital… You can’t expect me to stab you to death just because I slapped you, can you? What kind of bullshit logic is that!”
"The biggest regret of my life is marrying a shrew like you!"
"You surnamed Bao? How dare you say such a thing! I'll fight you to the death!"
Mrs. Bao roared and extended her Nine Yin White Bone Claw, leaving several bloody marks on Mr. Bao's face.
"Alright, Dad, Mom!" Bao Yifan slammed his hand on the table. His eyes were bloodshot, clearly he hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time, and his hair was greasy, he hadn't even had time to wash it. He glared at the two of them and said, "Even after what's happened, you're still making a scene? What's the point of this? We'll soon be unable to even save the Bao Group!"
He was really exhausted, feeling like he was fighting the whole world all by himself. His parents not only couldn't help him at this time, but they also kept pulling him back. Most of the scandals and negative stories that came out were related to the conflicts between his parents.
Mrs. Bao and Mr. Bao finally calmed down a bit.
“Son, what should we do next?” Mrs. Bao said, “How about I announce to the media that your father and I have a good relationship and will definitely not get a divorce?”
"Do you even believe what you're saying?" Bao's father sneered. "Besides, they're planning to profit from this tragedy. Even if you didn't do it, they can still accuse you of it, and this isn't even a fabrication. The problem now is that we need to raise a large sum of money quickly, otherwise, everything you do will be in vain."
"Dad is right..."
Bao Yifan nodded and was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang. After answering it and saying a few words, he was already somewhat disoriented when he hung up.
"Son, what happened?"
Mrs. Bao and Mr. Bao sensed something was wrong and quickly pressed for answers.
Bao Yifan paused for a moment, then said:
"People have come to the company; they want to reconvene the board of directors..."

Upon receiving the news, Bao Yifan and his parents rushed to the headquarters of the Bao Group.
"Peng!"
Bao Yifan pushed open the door and scanned the room with sharp eyes.
Half of the familiar faces are gone.
Needless to say, they are all traitors who sold their shares in the group and betrayed the Bao family.
Finally, Bao Yifan saw it from the head seat in the conference room…
Andy.
Indeed, Andy was sitting in the main seat at the shareholders' meeting of the Bao Group, dressed in an office lady outfit, expressionless, clearly the image of a shrewd and capable businesswoman.
"Andy, what are you doing here?"
Bao Yifan asked in astonishment.
He had wondered who was targeting his family.
Bao Yifan had considered many people. In business, how could one not have enemies? There were too many suspects, but he hadn't considered that... it was Andy?
"Yifan, you've finally arrived! I was just about to send someone to inform you, but I didn't expect you to come so quickly. Come, sit down, sit down quickly. The board meeting is about to start, and we can't afford to miss anyone, especially you, the second largest shareholder of the Bao Group!"
A middle-aged man smiled and said to Bao Yifan.
Bao Yifan was certainly familiar with this person, Liu Zuohuang. He was originally a close friend of his parents and co-founded the Bao Group. He was the second largest shareholder of the Bao Group. It can be said that he made great contributions to the success of the Bao Group. Unfortunately, he later fell out with his parents due to a dispute over interests and became the most resolute opponent of the Bao family. Over the years, almost all those in the Bao Group who were dissatisfied with the Bao family have united under his banner and have been opposing his parents and Bao Yifan.
Bao Yifan took a deep breath and found a seat with his father, Old Bao.
"Now that everyone has arrived, the shareholders' meeting shall begin."
First, due to the change in shareholding, Andy became the largest shareholder by raising his stake.
After becoming the largest shareholder through a shareholding increase, the largest shareholder can obtain a board seat through the elected board of directors.
—In the United States, it is stipulated that you must join the board of directors once you own 5% of the shares. In China, it is 8%. The competition for board seats in listed companies is generally allocated according to the shareholding ratio.
Andy is now a major shareholder of the Bao Group, so it is only natural that she gets a seat on the board.
Bao Yifan couldn't stop it.
Andy sat in the main seat, and everyone else tacitly accepted it. Bao Yifan, the son of the founder of the Bao Group, could only be relegated to the second seat, which made him feel a pang of sadness.
Liu Zuohuang spoke up:
