Chapter 2016: Shock

~7 min read 1,364 words

"Ding-a-ling..."

They hadn't walked out of the door yet when the telephone bell on the sofa cabinet behind them rang.

"At this time, who is still calling."

Zhou Andong muttered, turned back, and picked up the phone.

"Hello, I am Zhou Andong."

"Boss Zhou!"

Hearing Guan Shengjie's excited but suppressed voice came from the receiver.

"You acquired 13.6% of Sony's shares and became Sony's fourth-largest shareholder?"

Domestic media must have reporters stationed in Xiangjiang. Yuan Wanqi held a press conference, and the country must have received the news immediately.

"Yes!"

"Fuck!"

Hearing Guan Shengjie roared and cursed, then shouted with uncontrollable excitement.

"Zhou Andong, what exactly are you doing? Fuck, you gave the Chinese people so much face, brother, I am proud of you..."

Hearing Guan Shengjie shouted loudly, already a bit incoherent.

"The business cooperation between Future Culture and the *Fashion Beauty* magazine on the other side of the sea, if there is no problem, approve it."

The reason why Chen Quan blocked the cooperation between Future Culture and *Fashion Beauty* was because there were indeed some small problems, but these problems could be completely solved.

But he just wouldn't tell you where the problem was, he just wanted to block you. In this way, no matter who asked, he would have reasons, and he would have to give a thumbs up, saying that Minister Chen is selfless, even for the business of his nephew-in-law Zhou Andong, he is doing things according to public affairs.

But Zhou Andong's words just now sounded like chatting with his elder, but in fact, he was warning him that the one had already set the tone. If he continued to block the cooperation between Future Culture and *Fashion Beauty* magazine, it would be confronting that one, and he shouldn't think about sitting steadily on the chair under his butt.

So, even if he was unwilling, he had to compromise and open up the cooperation between Future Culture and *Fashion Beauty*.

Moreover, what made him extremely depressed was that in the future, if Future Culture encountered any problems, Zhou Andong would really come to find him, and he would have to assist with all his heart, otherwise it would be confrontation, and he really couldn't wear this hat.

"Okay, I'll go notify them now."

The secretary was stunned, then reacted, turned and left, sighing in his heart: No matter what, they are still one family.

Tokyo, Sony Headquarters!

Watanabe Yasuto sat there with a livid face, his eyes gloomy, looking very scary.

And other directors also had different faces, some angry, some silent, some unwilling, some hard to believe.

That Chinese person named Zhou Andong actually acquired 13.6% of Sony's shares and became Sony's fourth-largest shareholder, which made them unable to accept it either psychologically or spiritually.

Especially since both sides are competitors, Yuzhou VCD and Sony VCD, although a big war has not yet occurred, the time for the big war is getting closer and closer.

And there is the DVD standard dispute. Both sides will definitely have a fierce battle. Nowadays, the research and development of DVD has entered a critical moment, but the enemy has become Sony's fourth-largest shareholder. This is really very fatal for them.

In addition, Zhou Andong entrusted Qiudongfang to raise the card and applied to enter the board of directors. At the same time, he submitted a lawyer's letter, inviting Sony to apologize for the VCD patent infringement and pay 14.6 million US dollars in patent fees.

They calculated that including China and Japan, Sony VCD global sales are less than 50,000 units. That is to say, Qiudongfang's patent fee is 300 US dollars per VCD. How is this different from robbery?

If Sony refuses to pay the patent fee, Zhou Andong will sue Sony as the vice president of Qiudongfang.

You know, Zhou Andong is the vice president of Qiudongfang, but he is also Sony's fourth-largest shareholder.

A Sony shareholder suing Sony for patent infringement, is there anything more disgusting in this world?

Yoshioka Kunihiko thought about what Zhou Andong had said to him after the negotiations broke down that day, and the old face was a bit scary.

At that time, Zhou Andong said that he could make Sony's stock price rise, and could also make Sony's stock price crash. He just sneered sarcastically. This Chinese person was really arrogant and crazy, not knowing how many pounds he weighed, and he didn't take it to heart at all.

But now thinking about it, before he went to China, Zhou Andong was already preparing to short Sony's stock.

And the evidence of Sony's financial fraud leaked out, and it was also investigated that a financial person was bought and sold Sony.

The conference room was terribly quiet, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that people couldn't breathe.

"Bang!"

That old devil with a toothbrush mustache suddenly slammed his fist on the conference table.

In such a quiet and oppressive environment, a sudden loud noise scared everyone, including Watanabe Yasuto and Yoshioka Kunihiko.

"Baka, baka..."

The old devil with a toothbrush mustache cursed angrily, but couldn't come up with any solution.

Others looked at each other. In fact, they were also very angry, but they could all control their emotions and make themselves look a bit gentlemanly.

Yoshioka Kunihiko opened his mouth, wanting to say something about what Zhou Andong had said about Sony's stock.

But in the end, he didn't say it, because the matter had already happened, and saying it now had no meaning, but would hit everyone's confidence.

"Zhou Andong has become a Sony shareholder, and is the fourth-largest shareholder. Next, we will face unprecedented huge challenges. Everyone, say something, how should we respond."

Andy Lau picked up the newspaper suspiciously, and saw the bold headline on the front page at a glance.

Mainland's richest man Zhou Andong spent 4.2 billion US dollars to acquire 13.6% of Sony's shares and became Sony's fourth-largest shareholder.

Zhou Andong, Chairman of Yugong Group, has well-known enterprises such as Yugong Liquor, Jiang Xiaobai, Xuri Sheng, and Yuzhou Technology under his banner.

And Xuri Sheng Iced Black Tea and Very Cola have already occupied half of the mainland beverage market. Xuri Sheng Group will be listed in Xiangjiang on August 1st...

Andy Lau looked very carefully, and his eyes became brighter and brighter, because he subscribed to Xuri Sheng's stocks. With such good news, after Xuri Sheng is listed, it will definitely be red. Even if the stocks in his hand cannot pay off the 40 million debt, it can reduce his pressure significantly.

Sister Lan also subscribed to Xuri Sheng's stocks. When she saw this news, she was also very excited, and also very glad to be on good terms with a figure like Zhou Andong.

She knew Zhou Andong was very capable, but she didn't expect him to be so rich. Judging from the financial strength Zhou Andong showed, his net worth could definitely rank in the top four of the Xiangjiang rich list.

"Andy!" Sister Lan hesitated and said: "Mr. Zhou appreciates you very much. Whether it is him writing songs for you or inviting you to endorse Very Cola and Yuzhou VCD, our cooperation has been very pleasant. You are in trouble now, I believe that as long as you speak, he will definitely help you."

Andy Lau nodded and said: "I will contact Dongzai in the evening."

He was a bit resistant to asking Mrs. Heung, after all, the two sides had not cooperated, and had not even dealt with each other. But it was different with Zhou Andong, whether it was personal relationship or cooperation, it had always been good.

Sister Lan checked the time: "Don't wait until the evening, contact him in a while."

Andy Lau pondered: "You ask if there is a plane to the mainland today. Such things, I think it is better to say it face to face."

"Okay!" Sister Lan got up and entered Andy Lau's office.

Andy Lau continued to eat breakfast. After he finished eating, Sister Lan also came out of the office.

"The plane at 10:50, you wash up immediately, and then we have to go to the airport."
