Let them offer their loyalty
Page 234
Rather than having a headache later, it is better to deal with the board’s affairs before that.
"Mr. Jonas, my injury has almost been healed. Do you need me to take you back to the company?"
Esni, who was standing next to her, had put on her coat again at some point. The wound on her abdomen was covered by the coat, and there were some traces of bandages on her thighs.
When she saw Jonas finish the call, she stepped forward and asked.
Jonas's thoughts were interrupted. He looked at the girl in front of him with a slightly expectant look, ruthlessly extinguished the girl's expectations, and said:
"I've asked Eiffel to come over. As for Miss Esni, please go to the medical department for a full body check-up. Come back to me when the results are out."
Hearing this, Esni couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Generally speaking, after fulfilling her duties, Miss Esni would ask to be the driver and take Jonas to a relatively safe place.
This was not only for his own safety, but also to satisfy the girl's desire to be alone with him.
However, due to the injury this time, Jonas took a rare firm attitude and asked the other party to go for a physical examination first to avoid any hidden diseases.
Esni knew that her performance this time was not good and she almost let the attacker hurt Mr. Jonas. Besides, the other party's words were indeed for her own good, so she did not raise any objections, but just hummed and nodded.
...................................................................
The subsequent handling of the matter was pretty much what he had expected.
The reporters who participated in the press conference were properly accommodated, and the security members who were injured in the incident basically received a considerable bonus.
The Alte Group was not greatly affected by this incident, and the project was still proceeding as planned. Eiffel proposed to postpone the launch of the product by one month, but was rejected by Jonas.
He knew that the attackers this time were not able to overtly affect the existence of the Alte Group, otherwise they would not have resorted to assassination.
Of course, another part of the reason is that the Alte Group has experienced too many such things, so this turmoil did not have much impact on it. As long as the project team can still operate normally, the impact of external public opinion pressure will be minimal.
Everything was calm inside the Alte Group, but the outside world was in an uproar because of this attack.
Most people are skeptical about this so-called press conference. After all, without experiencing the real effect, no matter how exaggerated the product performance is, it doesn't feel real...
But Jonas was assassinated because of this incident, and most people's attitudes have become subtle... The number of cases of assassination due to a product is definitely not high even in District 25, which is enough to show the value behind the so-called "virtual reality".
This technology may really be able to change District 25...The Alte Foundation may really have reached the threshold of the "Second World".
After all, most people in District 25 have experienced this kind of tricks. You say that virtual reality has real machines? I don't believe it. You must have received money from the Alte Foundation.
You want to hold a press conference? Just hold it. The data is all fake anyway. I don't believe a word of it.
But are you saying that Jonas was assassinated by other consortiums because of this product?
Shit, I guess the Alte Group has really developed the virtual reality technology.
It is precisely because of the turmoil caused by this attack that the already high expectations for the product have once again reached a new peak.
Of course, there are also some conspiracy theories, such as the attack was directed and acted by the Alte Group in order to increase the popularity of its products.
There are many people who support such remarks, and some even try to use public opinion to put pressure on the peacekeeping forces to investigate the matter. Most of these people are citizens who do not know the truth, and a small number of them are financial groups trying to incite them.
Under such public pressure, the peacekeeping force was more or less affected, but this is the job of the peacekeeping force itself, and the investigation into the attack began soon.
In reality, this type of survey has no effect on the results.
This kind of thing, which is more like a fight between financial groups, will basically not have any results. Even if it is really investigated to the end, there is a high probability that the blame will be pushed onto the Destiny Organization or the Dawn Star, and the matter will end up in nothing.
From a neutral standpoint, they hope that more dog-eat-dog situations like this will happen. The weakening of the consortium's power means the strengthening of the peacekeeping forces, so they turn a blind eye every time it happens.
Moreover, the participation of the peacekeeping forces in such matters itself is suspected of "taking sides", and they do not have the authority and strength of the arbitration bureau. The arbitration bureau does not have to worry about these issues and intervenes in the conflicts between companies, while the peacekeeping forces can only protect themselves.
But this time it was different. The peacekeeping force sent a special team and announced that it would thoroughly investigate this incident that disrupted the public order in the 25th District.
This action made those forces that were paying attention to this matter smell something amiss...Looking at the peacekeeping force, it seems that they are going to take sides, but no one knows whose side they are on.
Just looking at the current situation, it is very likely that the peacekeeping force values the development potential of the Alte Foundation and the value of the virtual reality project. There is a high probability that they want to help the Alte Foundation and do a favor at the same time.
However, there are fierce conflicts within the peacekeeping force.
.................................................. ...................
The person in charge of this project is Youkasi...After being promoted to management, she has never taken the initiative to carry out any tasks. This is the first time in history.
The peacekeeping force had a very unified view on this matter. The radical management did not obstruct Yukas's idea, and the core figure of the radical faction, Michael Curtis, was the main driving force behind the deal with Jonas and agreed to let Yukas serve in the peacekeeping force for three months.
Michael Curtis naturally agreed with Youkas' idea.
There are only a few conservative members left, and Youkas is the main force among them. Although it was a bit abnormal for him to take on this task this time, this is exactly what Michael Curtis wanted to see.
"If Yukas knew about our cooperation with Jonas, given her personality, she would definitely find a way to attack the Alt Foundation and weaken the power of the radicals."
"For us, we just need to remove the Alt Group after Yukas strikes it, and explain the factional struggles within the peacekeeping force to Jonas. He will most likely help us solve the problems with the remaining conservatives."
This is the view Michael Curtis put forward at the Radicals Conference, calling it a strategy of driving the tiger to eat the wolf.
Most of the radicals hold this view, and thanks to this, Youkas directly received special approval documents for the special investigation.
However, the development of things deviated somewhat from their expectations.
Three days after launching a special investigation, Youkas obtained a large amount of evidence pointing to the Weting Group as the mastermind behind the attack.
Once the results of this investigation were announced, they caused an uproar in the 25th District.
But there is nothing wrong with this result...Everyone knows the feud between the board of directors of the Wetin Group and Jonas. Now that Jonas is dead, the biggest beneficiary is naturally the board of directors of the Wetin Group.
Without even waiting for the peacekeeping force's management to react, Youkas arrested several members of the Wetin Group's board of directors on the grounds of "vicious business competition."
......................................................................
At the same time, in the top floor conference hall of the Weiting Consortium.
Jonas sat in the main seat, looking at the people in front of him with some boredom, and said:
"I think everyone should know the reason why I came here today."
In front of him were all former members of the board of directors of the Weiting Consortium... To the original body, the familiar faces that he hated so much seemed a little funny at this moment.
"Mr. Weiting... If it's just a show of force, I think the effect has been achieved. In a few months, you will be the master of this place. Why do you have to kill us all?"
One of the women spoke with some difficulty. Jonas remembered her. In the previous actions advocated by Mist, she had always maintained a neutral attitude.
He paused, but did not nod. He just calmly asked:
"If you were in my position, would you let them go?"
Hearing this, the woman's face turned pale and blue, and after a while she spoke:
"Your current behavior will not benefit your future... The share price of the Weiting Consortium has fallen below the lowest value in the past two days. You are wasting your own assets."
In fact, when Mist was arrested and imprisoned some time ago, the Wetting Group had already experienced a round of shrinkage, and most of its profits were sucked away by the Alte Group founded by the man in front of him.
But what she couldn't understand was that he could legitimately take away everything here in a few months, so why did he have to do it now?
"What I need is not the disobedient Weiting consortium...but a consortium that belongs to me. In other words, the existence of the board of directors is unnecessary."
Jonas spoke, then looked at the board members who didn't even dare to look at him.
"Now, I give you a choice.
Either quit voluntarily, or..."
He looked at the information on the side, which listed several board members who had been arrested.
Attitude speaks for itself.
.................................................. ..................
PS: This chapter of 4,000 words solves the problems left over from history. It is definitely not the case that the plot line has only been filled in now, it was premeditated (guilty conscience).
Well, today's update is almost ten hours late. Tomorrow's update will be a little earlier. It will also be a 6,000-word update, and I will try to post it in the evening.
PS2: I'm worried that some people are still confused about the map, so let me explain... The overall strength and level of the th District is also first-class in the world, but it can't compare with the behemoth like the Federation. Rhine's family has never been revealed too much, but in other words, she is almost the little princess of the Federation.
Chapter 317 From now on, I will be the one to support Miss Chelsi
Jonas's threat made everyone present change their expression. They certainly knew what happened to those who were taken away by the peacekeeping forces for "assisting in the investigation."
What they knew even more clearly was that those who were taken away were also members of the 'Mist' faction who had tried their best to prevent Jonas from joining the board of directors.
The current Wettin Consortium is in decline, especially after Jonas left... This also makes most of them regret it...
If such a large consortium does not have a helmsman, its end is bound to be decline.
Everyone on the board of directors has his or her own thoughts, and they restrain each other and engage in intrigue and deception. This does more harm than good to the Weiting Group.
This is also the reason why Jonas wants to abolish the board of directors completely... When the loyalty of the board of directors cannot be guaranteed, it is much easier to abolish it directly than to resolve the conflicts within the board of directors.
"Besides this, do we have any other choice?" the woman asked reluctantly.
"of course not."
After that, an electronic contract appeared in front of them, and Jonas said:
"I will buy your shares at a reasonable price... Of course, you can choose to refuse, which will not affect the result."
Having said this, he paused and continued:
"The peacekeeping force should get the news in half an hour. You only have half an hour to consider. I have the list of people who planned the attack on the press conference and the evidence. I hope you can consider it carefully."
——A naked threat.
Of course, everyone present knew that there was no trace of the Wetting Consortium behind this matter. It was just a play directed and acted by Jonas from beginning to end. But even though they knew it in their hearts, they had no way to resist.
The peacekeeping force is in cahoots with the Alte Group, and the special investigator has already colluded with Jonas. This is not an investigation at all, but a conspiracy to eliminate dissidents.
Jonas had forged the evidence from the very beginning, and now he can designate anyone as the "mastermind"... The most obvious thing is that whoever does not sign this agreement will be taken away as an "investigator" or "suspect" in the next step.
Looking at the conditions that Jonas said, which seemed "reasonable" but were actually quite harsh, everyone on the board of directors could only accept it. After all, this was the general trend, and they naturally would not choose to confront Jonas head-on at this time when they knew that the other party was fully prepared.
After about ten minutes, everyone had signed and the answer was obvious.
Almost everyone was willing to accept his "reasonable" conditions.
At this point, the Wettin Group was officially merged into the Alte Group, and Jonas also took back his own "historical legacy."
..............................................................
Under the intelligence blockade of the Alte Consortium, few people knew that Jonas had regained the Wettin Consortium, and the Alte Consortium had unknowingly expanded in size.
After absorbing the productivity and scale brought by the Wetting Group, the scale of the Alte Group has begun to take shape as a "giant enterprise". Originally supported by the medical and chip industries, the Alte Group now has almost no rivals in the cutting-edge mechanical technology industry.
If considering the size of the Alte Group before, it was a bit difficult to fully accommodate the "virtual reality" project, then now, after the merger with the Wetting Group, the Alte Group has the qualifications to become the top group in District 25.
.................................................. ................
Alte Foundation, in the top floor office.
A white-haired female figure appeared in front of Jonas. Judging from the background, she seemed to be in a place like an office.
"First of all, congratulations to our Mr. Weiting... In the future, the Nason Group will have to rely more on the Alt Group."
The tone on the other end of the line was somewhat teasing. Jonas coughed and said:
"Well, as the chairman of the Nathan Group, what does Miss Chelsea have to say?"
"I will serve as Mr. Jonas's secretary and go to the Alt Foundation for two days for exchange and study. What do you think of this proposal, Mr. Jonas?"
"No, forget it." Jonas quickly stopped the other party.
The last time the other party came here, Eiffel was in a state of silence for a whole week. If he comes again, the girl will probably turn into a vengeful spirit.
"What a shame. I was looking forward to it."
Chelsea sighed, then changed her tone and asked:
"Okay, all kidding aside... do you have any guesses about the people who attacked the press conference?"
As one of the few people who knew the inside story, Chelsea naturally knew that Jonas' original plan did not include a "self-directed and self-acted attack press conference."
Firstly, it is too dangerous, and secondly, it is very easy to be discovered and exposed. Now such a person suddenly appears, and he is most likely here for the virtual reality project.
Moreover, the other party dared to do such a thing at the press conference, which clearly shows that there is considerable power behind them.
This was a big part of the reason why Chelsea called, because she was worried that Jonas would suffer a loss in the game with the other party.
After all, she was very clear about the forces in District 25. Someone who could do such a thing could basically eliminate the forces in District 25. The other party was either from the Federation or from Huacheng.
Hearing the other party's question, Jonas answered truthfully:
"I have some guesses, but the other party won't bother me again in the short term."
