165: Chapter 166 Armed Arrest on the Helipad: Using Someone Else to Kill

Watching his former allies struggling desperately on the ground, only to be roughly shoved into police cars.

The corners of Young Master Su Chi's mouth slowly curled into a chilling, cruel arc.

He had not even needed to deploy a single one of his own men.

By simply casting out an ethereal bait, he had accomplished this ruthless act of "borrowing a knife to kill" without shedding a drop of blood.

Utilizing the official authorities as the most peerless, heavy sword.

Young Master Su Chi had thoroughly sent all the overseas forces who knew the inside story and might demand repayment from him at any time into an abyss from which they would never return.

This group of scapegoats who were eliminated the moment they landed.

Not only did they take the fall for all his dirty work, but they also cleared away the last shred of human obstacles on his path to swallowing those billions in assets.

As the wailing of the riot police vehicles on the runway gradually faded into the distance, completely disappearing into the night.

Standing behind the one-way glass, Young Master Su Chi slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and drained the glass of Bordeaux red wine, which was as crimson as blood.

"The scapegoats" have all been caught and imprisoned.

Now, it is time to harvest the final fruits of victory.

After confirming that the core backbone of the overseas families had been completely physically isolated by the authorities, with no hope of ever making a comeback.

Young Master Su Chi did not waste a moment, initiating the final step of his chain of schemes.

He was like a high-speed, emotionless computer.

Moving with a dazzling speed.

He rapidly reorganized the corporate structures of all the companies whose underlying equity had been changed.

He firmly grasped the control of the three giants—Alibaba Group, Douyin, and Pinduoduo—under the names of his secret local white gloves.

Immediately afterward, in order to completely shut the mouths of the Wall Street financial groups across the ocean and prevent any potential future troubles that could lead to international cross-border lawsuits.

Young Master Su Chi decisively engaged in "cutting flesh to balance the books."

He strictly followed the agreement made at the board meeting in July.

Directly carving out 25% of the shares from the 55% absolute controlling stake he actually held.

He cleanly transferred them to the foreign capital as a guaranteed bargaining chip for their withdrawal.

After completing all these internal interest divisions and transfers.

In mid-August.

Young Master Su Chi finally stepped into the spotlight and released a shocking announcement to the entire national market, one that could only be described as brazen to the extreme.

"In response to the national call to maintain a healthy market ecosystem, the three enterprises under this camp will cease all forms of malicious subsidies starting from today!"

In this high-sounding statement, Young Master Su Chi staged a perfect act of "the thief crying, 'Stop thief!'"

Without the slightest blush, he dumped all the dirty water of the past few months—the "malicious disruption of market order" and "reckless burning of money to destroy the industry ecosystem"—

entirely onto the heads of the overseas forces who had just been arrested and imprisoned, and the foreign capital that had already withdrawn.

He cleared his own name completely, as if he were the victim who had been coerced.

What was even more masterful was his high-profile announcement at the end of the notice:

"Currently, the three enterprises have completed a thorough change in equity structure and have cleared out all bad overseas capital. We will officially purge the tumors, turn over a new leaf, and completely transform into a purely domestic private enterprise, returning to a normal business operation model!"

This set of smooth, flowing, and slick whitewashing moves left all the major families across the country, who had been watching the fire from the other side of the river, completely stunned.

Originally, countless pairs of eyes like hungry wolves had been secretly staring fixedly at the sinking market.

Waiting for Young Master Su Chi's capital chain to dry up, waiting for them and Jiyuan Technology to fight until they were exhausted and both sides were severely injured.

Everyone was ready to jump in at any moment to intervene, carve up the corpse, and crazily scavenge for bargains.

But what was the result?

With this insane combo of "killing allies, swallowing assets, and instant whitewashing" that Young Master Su Chi played.

Not only did the total collapse that everyone expected not happen.

Instead, overnight, he shook off all debts and responsibilities.

Carrying away billions in funds, he instantly returned to a normal business operation model!

What made those covetous onlookers feel the most despair was.

Young Master Su Chi had slammed on the emergency brakes too hard and too accurately.

The entire transfer of power and assets was as tight as an iron bucket.

Leaving not even a second of buffer room or a power vacuum for external capital.

He directly completed the dark nirvana of this commercial behemoth.

Meanwhile, a thousand miles away in Shanghai.

Inside the president's office at the Jiyuan Technology headquarters, the atmosphere had fallen into an extremely eerie and oppressive state.

General Manager Chen Shengqiang was clutching the recently printed competitor announcement and industrial and commercial change monitoring report tightly in his hand.

Standing in front of Shen Du's desk, his face was full of disbelief and deep confusion.

"President Shen, this is too wrong; this simply doesn't make sense!"

General Manager Chen Shengqiang frowned tightly, pointing at the dense data on the report:

"In less than half a month.

These three companies were just high-profile in announcing that they would continue to increase subsidies.

And in the next moment, without any warning, they cut off funds across the board!"

"And look at the hidden information in the industrial and commercial system.

These three enterprises have even secretly completed the most thorough changes to their underlying legal representatives and board members!"

The more General Manager Chen Shengqiang spoke, the more he felt a chill down his spine:

"Even if they really couldn't continue the subsidy war.

This kind of suicidal 'emergency brake'.

Aren't they afraid that suddenly cutting off the capital chain will cause a terrifying, avalanche-like loss of users in the sinking market?"

After listening to General Manager Chen Shengqiang's report.

Shen Du leaned back against the leather chair, his fingertips gently stroking his chin, and a flash of surprise and suspicion crossed his deep eyes.

His business intuition from two lifetimes told him that this matter reeked of a chilling evilness.

According to conventional business logic.

Even if a massive corporate alliance were to retreat.

It would be impossible for them to do it so cleanly, smoothly, and without even a whisper of internal strife leaking out.

Unless... this was a slaughter game targeting their own people from the very beginning.

Facing this fog that violated all conventional economic common sense, Shen Du did not continue to use traditional logic to deduce.

He closed his eyes slightly.

Directly deep within his consciousness, he unfolded his trump card, the "Geomantic Map," which could discern all cause and effect.

In an instant, the scene before his eyes underwent a violent shift and transformation.

The vast and complex sand table of national commercial fortune slowly unfolded in Shen Du's mind.

However.

When Shen Du saw the latest direction of the black lines of fortune on the sand table clearly.

Even with his rock-solid state of mind, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

The "Geomantic Map" showed it clearly:

Those tangled gray-black fortunes that had originally hovered across the ocean, representing the remaining overseas forces of the Beijing Circle.

Had indeed been completely scattered and disappeared, as if cut off by a single blade.

But!

Right on the domestic map, directly from the deepest core of the Beijing Circle.

A jet-black line of killing intent, several times thicker than before and appearing almost tangible, suddenly extended out!

This huge black line, carrying greed and a desire to devour, was like a nine-nether venomous python that had been dormant for a long time.

It was locked on and piercing straight toward the Shanghai headquarters where Shen Du was, across thousands of mountains and rivers!

Looking at this jet-black line of killing intent that was thick enough to be heart-palpitating.

Shen Du's mind flashed with a thunderbolt, and he instantly understood the bloody truth hidden in the shadows.

"What a Su Family... what a ruthless, insane move of borrowing a knife to kill!"

Shen Du opened his eyes abruptly, a flash of unprecedented, piercing killing intent crossing the depths of his eyes.

He didn't need to think about anything else; this surging domestic black line had already explained everything.

Young Master Su Chi had not been harmed at all in this defeat.

Instead, he had cold-bloodedly raised the butcher's knife and swallowed the billions in assets of all his own allies in one gulp!

This century-defining commercial war, which to outsiders looked like the withdrawal of foreign capital and the retreat of a coalition army.

Was not a failure at all for the Su Family.

Because the entire Su Family had not only lost a single soldier in this cruel meat grinder.

But instead, by sucking the flesh and blood of their comrades in the same camp.

And stepping on the bones of their allies, they had completed a terrifying and perfect capital expansion!

Shen Du stood up slowly, his gaze piercing through the office's huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking toward the distant northern capital.

His eyes became unprecedentedly grave.

He knew that this thrilling battle for the sinking market had not only not ended.

But instead, because of this bottomless cannibalism of the Su Family.

In this commercial abyss, it had given birth to a more patient, larger, and more cold-blooded nemesis.
