388: Is this charity?

Someone else @Yamai Tano: "You should go let the air out of Qian Ziyong's tires, or just puncture them with a needle."

"The one upstairs, I think we should make a voodoo doll and stick needles in it."

"Oh, right, aren't there many people in Sakura Country who practice witchcraft? Yamai Tano should hire a witch doctor!"

Many netizens were just enjoying the show, joining in to mock Yamai Tano and the incompetence of the Shanjing Consortium.

These videos quickly spread across the entire internet, and like the videos slandering Feihuang Group, they began to go viral.

Inside Yamai Murayu's villa.

When Yamai Murayu saw these videos, he clenched his fists tightly, so enraged he felt like spitting blood.

It's like this again, and again.

It was bad enough that Qian Ziyong disrespected him, but even a small-time Liu Gaoda dared to disrespect him.

Especially that disdainful expression, as if he was giving a beggar a million as charity, made him feel an unprecedented humiliation.

Moreover, the intended effect was not achieved.

As soon as Liu Gaoda's video came out, others didn't care about right or wrong; they just felt that their Shanjing Consortium was too petty.

For Feihuang Group and the Shanjing Consortium, these two behemoths, Yamai Tano's lawsuit seemed like a farce.

It would only invite ridicule and wouldn't make people feel that Feihuang Group had done anything wrong.

The most important thing was that Yamai Tano was trying to trick someone at the time.

This made Yamai Tano's lawsuit even less defensible.

Furthermore, Feihuang Group had already paid one million, so he couldn't keep pressing the issue.

Even if he continued to sue, the judge would say that Feihuang Group had already paid the money and admitted fault, so was there still a need for a lawsuit?

You should resolve it privately!

Unless he wanted to sue for an amount exceeding one million.

But Yamai Tano was just an ordinary person; his identity couldn't represent the Shanjing Consortium.

His own reputation was damaged, and a million in compensation was already the maximum.

If they wanted more money, people would only think the Shanjing Consortium was too greedy.

So, with Liu Gaoda's video released, he was completely helpless.

He couldn't even find a place to counterattack.

This was what frustrated him the most!

"Impressive!" Yamai Murayu clenched his fists tightly. "Qian Ziyong's tactics are truly impressive!"

Yamai Tano, who was standing nearby, scratched his head and said, "Are they Qian Ziyong's tactics?"

Yamai Murayu affirmed with certainty, "Absolutely Qian Ziyong's tactics."

"Only Qian Ziyong could so effortlessly, using a 'four ounces to deflect a thousand pounds' approach, damage our reputation while leaving us no way to retaliate."

"Liu Gaoda was merely acting on Qian Ziyong's orders."

Yamai Tano also felt that it made a lot of sense.

Although this video seemed simple.

But a short video made their heavy punch feel as if it landed on cotton.

Aside from causing internal injury to themselves, it caused no harm to Feihuang Group.

Oh, Feihuang Group wasn't entirely without loss; it lost one million.

But for such a large corporate group, one million was nothing.

Yamai Murayu narrowed his eyes: "Qian Ziyong responded to our lawsuit against Feihuang."

"However, Qian Ziyong has made no move regarding Feihuang Group's lawsuit against Yu Chengtian."

"Could it be that he also has no solution for this matter?"

Yamai Murayu felt that this must be the case.

Qian Ziyong either had to drop the lawsuit against Yu Chengtian, or he could only let the unfavorable rumors on the internet persist.

No matter what, most internet users are ordinary people, and they are more willing to side with ordinary people.

And Yu Chengtian represented ordinary people!

So, as long as Qian Ziyong sued Yu Chengtian, he wouldn't be able to clarify the online rumors.

If he were Qian Ziyong, he would immediately withdraw the lawsuit against Yu Chengtian and take the loss.

However, based on Yamai Murayu's understanding of Qian Ziyong, he had never taken a loss and certainly wouldn't just accept this one.

Yamai Murayu said, "Qian Ziyong has high aspirations and excellent abilities, but he is not a qualified businessman!"

"A qualified businessman should prioritize profit."

"And Qian Ziyong is unwilling to take even a small loss, insisting on suing Yu Chengtian. How unwise is that?"

"No matter how strong Qian Ziyong's other abilities are, as long as he has a weakness, seize that weakness and hit him hard!"

"Yes!" Yamai Tano nodded, then hesitated and said, "Chairman, we're a bit short on funds!"

Upon hearing this, Yamai Murayu felt a headache coming on.

Qinghui Plaza had tied up too much liquid capital.

Even now, Qinghui Plaza had not been sold.

Qinghui Plaza had completely gone bankrupt; the merchants in the mall, some closed down, some terminated their leases, and it was beyond saving.

Furthermore, the Shanjing Consortium's intention to trick someone into taking over Qinghui Plaza had already spread widely.

They couldn't find anyone to take over Qinghui Plaza at all.

Even at a rock-bottom price, no one would take it.

Although the Shanjing Consortium was very wealthy, he had spent over ten billion in total to deal with Qian Ziyong.

First, it was to target Feihuang's game, then to renovate Qinghui Plaza, and to spend money hiring internet trolls to slander Feihuang Group.

As well as creating a new Waimai Platform and establishing a stable logistics channel.

The Shanjing Consortium's liquid capital had been largely spent, and the remaining small amount of liquid capital could absolutely not be touched.

Where to get money from?

Yamai Murayu irritably tapped the table with his fingers, then gritted his teeth: "Sell Qinghui Plaza!"

He said fiercely, "Sell it at the price of the land!"

The land for Qinghui Plaza was worth 1.5 billion.

Sixty billion invested, 1.5 billion recovered—this was a catastrophic loss.

But Qinghui Plaza was only worth that much money now.

Qinghui Plaza couldn't function as a shopping mall, and others weren't foolish; they wouldn't take over Qinghui Plaza to compete with Feihuang Plaza.

If it couldn't be a shopping mall, then it could only be demolished to build residential properties.

To rebuild residential properties, it naturally could only be sold at the price of the land.

Upon hearing that Qinghui Plaza would be sold at the price of the land, Yamai Tano's mouth twitched involuntarily twice.

The loss was truly too severe!

"Chairman, this..." Yamai Tano felt very reluctant.

Yamai Murayu was indeed worthy of being the Chairman of the Shanjing Consortium; even when making such a huge decision, losing so much money, he still made the decision.

In terms of courage alone, Yamai Murayu far surpassed others.

Yamai Murayu said, "Whatever we lose now, we will earn back double in the future!"

"As long as my plan can proceed smoothly and the Qi'er Waimai Platform can be built up, then this small loss is nothing!"

"Business is like this; there are losses and gains!"

"If you lose, you lose. When it's time to cut ties, cut them!"

Yamai Tano was filled with admiration: "Chairman, you are much stronger than Qian Ziyong in this regard!"

"Although Qian Ziyong's abilities are good, he is too youthful and doesn't understand compromise; he wants everything."

For the sake of so-called justice, dragging the entire Feihuang to sue Yu Chengtian was a very incorrect decision.

Moreover, even after realizing the significant negative impact on Feihuang, Qian Ziyong didn't change and continued to act as he pleased; his character was not up to par, too youthful.

In this aspect, compared to their Yamai Murayu, he was far behind.

Qian Ziyong was still too young.
