Chapter 1475
Hearing this, Su Zhiyu couldn't help but look up at Ye Chen.
She discovered that Ye Chen had figured out her crafty grandfather clearly. He said that her grandfather would definitely come to ask for her help, and she didn't expect her grandfather to be exactly as he had predicted.
However, she didn't know why her grandfather had angered Ye Chen, nor did she know that her grandfather had sent a master of gu arts to Jin Ling to attempt to assassinate Ye Chen.
So, she didn't agree immediately, but asked, "Grandfather, you said you have some misunderstanding with the benefactor. Can you tell me what the specific misunderstanding is first? Even if I agree to help you, I have to understand it clearly before I can find an entry point to communicate with the benefactor."
Su Chengfeng hesitated for a moment, sighed a few times, and said, "Sigh... it's not really a misunderstanding. It's mainly that I was confused for a moment. I invited a master of metaphysics from the UK and sent him to Jin Ling to find the whereabouts of your benefactor."
As he spoke, Su Chengfeng excused himself, "Actually, I didn't want to hurt that benefactor, I just wanted to find this person and talk to him face to face. But the master of metaphysics I invited might have been a bit too aggressive and killed innocent people in Jin Ling, and even tried to kill that benefactor. But this was all that guy's own idea, but your benefactor doesn't know that, he thinks I sent someone to kill him, so he is a bit angry with me..."
Su Zhiyu was stunned.
She didn't expect that her grandfather would still dare to engage in such petty tricks!
And this time, the petty tricks were not aimed at her, but at the benefactor!
This immediately made her furious, and she blurted out, "Why did you send someone to assassinate the benefactor?!"
Su Chengfeng noticed that Su Zhiyu's address to him had immediately changed from "you" (polite) to "you" (informal), so he realized that she must be very angry, and hurriedly explained, "This was not my intention at all, it was all that guy's own ignorance and his insistence on showing off..."
Su Zhiyu retorted, "Do you think I will believe that? You could even try to kill my mother, let alone the benefactor?"
Su Chengfeng knew that it was meaningless to quibble, so he could only say helplessly, "Zhiyu, it's meaningless to talk about this now. Grandfather can guarantee that I will never make the same mistake again. I hope you can put in a good word for me with that benefactor..."
Although Su Zhiyu was very angry in her heart, remembering what Ye Chen had told her, her tone softened a little, and she said, "I am currently having a face-to-face talk with Ito Takehiko of the Ito family at the Buckingham. I really don't know the situation on the benefactor's side very well, but after I finish talking with Mr. Ito, I will try my best to put in a good word for you with the benefactor."
After speaking, Su Zhiyu warned seriously, "Grandfather, there is one thing I must make clear to you. The benefactor has saved me twice, and has also saved my mother and my brother. He is a benefactor who has given me a new life. In my heart, he is more important than you!"
Although Su Chengfeng was very unhappy, he didn't dare to say anything more at this time.
He knew that what Su Zhiyu said was the truth. In Su Zhiyu's heart, he was no longer the grandfather who doted on her, but half an enemy. So he was not surprised that Su Zhiyu would say such things.
However, he was surprised by Su Zhiyu's clear-cut attitude. It seems that his granddaughter's style of doing things has become increasingly simple and crude.
Although he was unhappy, Su Chengfeng felt relieved when he heard Su Zhiyu say she was willing to try her best to put in a good word for him.
Immediately, having achieved his goal, he didn't continue to dwell on this issue too much and directly changed the subject, "By the way, Zhiyu, how is your talk with Ito Takehiko going? This guy has always been thinking about cooperating with us, wanting to break out of Asia and go to the world together, but ever since that incident in Tokyo, he seems to have looked down on us."
"Yes." Su Zhiyu said, "Mr. Ito's attitude has indeed changed somewhat, but his mentality is understandable. Currently, we are talking quite well. After all, times are different now, and I have lowered my posture a bit, intending to take the entire ocean shipping group to establish a new company with the Ito family. At that time, the Ito family will hold 51% of the shares, and I will hold 49%. In this way, by transitioning the fixed assets to the new company's name and then canceling the Su family's ocean shipping group, we should be able to avoid the previous restrictions and risks."
When Su Chengfeng heard this, although he was surprised, he didn't have a very resistant emotion.
He didn't expect that Su Zhiyu could really reconnect with Ito Takehiko. Although it sounded uncomfortable to lose controlling interest in this cooperation, after all, it is a special situation now, and one must make appropriate sacrifices when asking for help.
In the long run, if assets and businesses can be reborn through a shell, even if a part of the interest is sacrificed, the whole business can be revitalized, so it won't lose more and more.
Thinking of this, he reminded Su Zhiyu, "Zhiyu, there is no problem in cooperating with the Ito family to establish a new company, but you must leave a way out. State clearly in the contract that after you invest these assets and resources, you reserve the power to withdraw completely. In this way, once the restrictions on us are lifted, we can still withdraw these assets and restart the Su family's own ocean shipping group."
Ye Chen was listening on the side and couldn't help but think to himself that this old guy is really good at calculating, and even at such a time, he doesn't forget to leave a way out.
Su Zhiyu felt in her heart that since she had decided to cooperate with Ye Chen, she naturally couldn't play such tricks with Ye Chen.
Engaging in such petty tricks is equivalent to making a full prenuptial agreement for her dowry before marrying into her husband's family.
In this way, once the marriage breaks down, or she doesn't want to live with her husband anymore, she can take all the dowry and leave.
Although there is no problem from a legal point of view, with such a premise, the relationship between the couple cannot be stable forever, and such behavior will naturally become a gap between the two.
Therefore, she said to Su Chengfeng, "For this matter, I still intend to show 100% sincerity to cooperate with the other party. Only in this way can everyone cooperate perfectly without reservation and make the industry bigger and bigger together. If everyone leaves various tricks from the beginning, this kind of cooperation will definitely not last long."
Su Chengfeng said seriously, "Zhiyu, our Su family hasn't done joint ventures with others, but the premise of joint ventures is that we have absolute control. This point is actually very important. We must hold the initiative in our own hands. Now that Ito Takehiko wants to control, we must leave ourselves a way out. Otherwise, if we are led by the nose by others, it will be too passive!"
When Su Zhiyu heard this, she said with a somewhat serious tone, "I have a different view from you on this point. If I want to leave a way out for a full withdrawal now, the Ito family will definitely put forward the same requirements. It would be fine if the other party doesn't take action, but what if the other party kicks us out before we solve the problem? What should we do? Not everyone has to do things according to our way of thinking."
Speaking of this, Su Zhiyu added, "In addition, since you have already given the ocean shipping group to me as compensation, I also hope that you can keep your promise and respect my operational decisions."
Immediately, Su Zhiyu changed the subject and added, "Of course, I will also keep my promise to you. After I finish talking with Mr. Ito in a while, I will communicate with the benefactor immediately and try my best to persuade him."
Su Chengfeng could only say sullenly, "Good! Since that's the case, I will never interfere with your operational decisions in the future!"
Su Zhiyu reminded before hanging up the phone, "By the way, the Maldives matter is simple to handle. Why don't I go there tomorrow? It should only take seven hours to fly there. If the efficiency is higher, the transfer can be completed in one day."
Su Chengfeng on the other end of the phone rubbed his chest and said dejectedly, "Okay, tomorrow I will let Anshun also fly to the Maldives!"
