346: Annexation of the Walsh Hotel
The negotiation concluded successfully, and General Manager Guo left with the answer he desired.
Mu Ruguang looked at Su Yue with a face full of confusion: "Why doesn't Yuantu Investment Company lock down their funds?"
In his opinion, as long as Yuantu Investment Company kept a close eye on their funds, Huashi Hotel would be useless.
Su Yue heard Mu Ruguang subtly trying to direct him and instinctively glanced at him: "Do I need you to teach me what to do?"
Strictly speaking, if it weren't for Su Yue's comeback against the odds, the person sitting opposite would have been Mu Ruguang.
As someone from Yuantu Investment Company, Su Yue only cared about the benefits in his own eyes.
As for who the opposing party was, he didn't care at all.
Mu Ruguang saw Su Yue was slightly angry and didn't dare to dwell on such matters.
The meal ended on a somewhat unpleasant note between the two parties.
Su Yue needed to write a report about the matter here and submit it to Lan Zijun, so he didn't have time to stay with them.
At this time, he had another relatively important matter to attend to.
Su Yue drove his car onto a rural road, contemplating the words he would use to explain.
Tao Qingbai's unwillingness to auction his items was publicly known, and Su Yue's current actions had violated Tao Qingbai's arrangements.
Moreover, the ceramics were obtained by deceiving him from start to finish. If Tao Qingbai wanted to cause trouble now, Su Yue would have no excuse at all.
Unconsciously, Su Yue drove his car and stopped at the entrance of the house where Tao Qingbai was staying.
Originally, there were many paparazzi taking candid photos outside the villa, but now there were no reporters outside the villa.
Su Yue casually glanced around, as if thinking of something, and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect it to have this effect."
Although people in the entertainment industry make money easily, asking them to produce 1.5 billion yuan at once is something they also cannot do.
Due to the price factor, people in the entertainment industry had already given up on the things Tao Qingbai made.
It must be said that Su Yue had indirectly handled this matter properly.
Soon, Su Yue quietly sneaked into the place where Tao Qingbai lived.
As soon as he entered, the first thing he heard was the sound of grinding coming from the studio.
There was no need to ask, Tao Qingbai was most likely working inside.
Just as he didn't know how to explain, Su Yue quickly went into the kitchen and helped prepare a table full of delicious dishes.
When Tao Qingbai came down from upstairs, he smelled the aroma of the food in the air, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Came to apologize, huh?"
Su Yue heard Tao Qingbai's slightly teasing tone and said with a face full of embarrassment: "This matter happened for a reason."
Before Su Yue could even explain, Tao Qingbai shook his head repeatedly: "The ceramics have been given to you, so naturally you can dispose of them as you wish. I won't interfere."
These few words blocked all the excuses Su Yue had prepared.
He knew Tao Qingbai doted on him very much, but he didn't expect Tao Qingbai to be willing to break his own bottom line for him.
The two of them enjoyed a meal together in harmony, and Tao Qingbai couldn't help but say to Su Yue: "You must still have things to be busy with, right?"
Since Su Yue used his work to target Huashi Hotel, he didn't believe Su Yue had no follow-up plan.
Su Yue heard Tao Qingbai subtly trying to send him away and laughed heartily: "Indeed, I need to go back as soon as possible."
Currently, Lan Zijun doesn't know what happened here.
If he doesn't report the matter here to the higher-ups as soon as possible, he believes the higher-ups will blame Su Yue.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Su Yue immediately walked out.
It didn't take long for Su Yue to arrive at the Airport, planning to go back to the company to check things out.
Because he spent a little time at Tao Qingbai's place, it was very late when he returned to the company.
Su Yue originally thought there would be no one else in the company, but to his surprise, there were many people inside.
He walked up to those people and said with a face full of surprise: "Why haven't you gotten off work yet?"
The employees pointed their chins towards the office, as if they wanted Su Yue to go into the office and see.
It was because of their actions that Su Yue's attention was drawn, and he then went to Lan Zijun's office.
At this time, Lan Zijun was sitting in her office, looking worried, completely unaware if there were any issues outside.
When she saw Su Yue return, she quickly pointed to the seat opposite: "You're back. Tell me what happened?"
Yuantu Investment Company's money definitely couldn't be wasted, and she needed to hear if Su Yue had handled the matter properly.
Su Yue understood her meaning and shook his head with a face full of helplessness: "I'm considering whether we should help merge with Huashi Hotel."
With just a word from Lan Zijun, Muxin Hotel's merger with Huashi Hotel could immediately be put on the agenda.
Even if other investment companies invested in Huashi Hotel, it wouldn't make any difference.
Lan Zijun listened to Su Yue's explanation and couldn't help but ask: "If we merge with them, will we benefit?"
Business people naturally prioritize profit. As the saying goes, no profit, no early rising. They are not willing to work for others' benefit.
Su Yue looked at Lan Zijun's serious face and nodded: "Without Huashi Hotel, Muxin Hotel can take over the entire market."
And the money they invested will become the seed of a money tree, and they believe they can reap a lot of money.
Lan Zijun heard Su Yue explain the benefits and immediately signed the document: "Temporarily recall your vacation. This matter is entrusted to you, but you must ensure that Muxin Hotel does not turn against us."
Once Muxin Hotel has enough money in their hands, they believe the first thing they will do is betray Yuantu Investment Company.
No one wants a part of their profit to fall into the hands of others, let alone Mu Ruguang, who is inherently ambitious.
Su Yue saw Lan Zijun entrust this matter to him and pondered for a moment: "I will do my best."
He didn't stay in the office for long; he needed to quickly contact those online commenters to ruin Huashi Hotel's reputation.
Without a reputation, people outside would surely not patronize the hotel.
As soon as he left the office, the employees' discussion caught his attention.
One of them pointed to the content on the computer and exclaimed with surprise: "Look, Huashi Hotel bought a 1.5 billion yuan sky-high price porcelain vase and is displaying it at their headquarters."
Tao Qingbai is also an attractive selling point. Huashi Hotel's only chance is to use this porcelain vase to attract investment opportunities.
If no investment company is willing to invest in them, the money they borrowed will be a ticking time bomb.
Su Yue heard their voices, furrowed his brow slightly, and looked at them: "What are you saying?"

The employees saw Su Yue behind them and quickly made way: "General Manager Su, look, it's so bold."
They didn't know that the whole matter was handled by Su Yue and his group, so they discussed such things without restraint.
Su Yue saw them looking at him and said: "It seems they plan to use this ceramic to restore their reputation."
Since this matter was their only lifeline, Su Yue would add some trouble for them.
Su Yue contacted the group of people who dealt with Muxin Hotel and arranged for the leader to meet him at the hotel.
When the man saw Su Yue sitting inside, he quickly came to his side: "General Manager Su, who are we dealing with this time?"
Su Yue heard their voices and said with a smile: "This time we are dealing with Huashi Hotel. Are you confident?"
When they learned that their opponent was Huashi Hotel, they frowned slightly: "Huashi Hotel? They are currently in the spotlight."
Their information is everywhere online, and they must have also hired many marketing people.
Su Yue watched the man say a lot of nonsense and couldn't help but ask again: "I'm just asking if you are confident?"
He was not willing to do something without a guaranteed outcome.
When the man sensed that Su Yue was slightly angry, he nodded repeatedly: "As long as there is money, we don't care who you are dealing with."
Moreover, what they were doing had nothing to do with the ceramics, so they were still ten percent confident.
Su Yue looked at the man who was looking at him and nodded slightly: "Once this is done, the reward will not disappoint you."
He deliberately didn't mention the specific reward, aiming to see what the man would say.
Due to Yuantu Investment Company's high credibility, the man readily agreed: "No problem, we will listen to you."
Afterward, the man walked out.
This matter was relatively urgent, and Su Yue believed they would start acting overnight.
If they were even a little slow, Huashi Hotel might survive by using the money invested by others.
At that time, it would not be easy for the man to take advantage of the situation.
After arranging this matter, Su Yue called Lan Zijun again: "I'm going to Muxin Hotel now, reporting in."
Lan Zijun understood that Su Yue planned to deal with Huashi Hotel and readily agreed: "Go ahead."
These two simple words represented their determination.
As he had anticipated, Mu Ruguang had not yet rested; they were planning the takeover of Huashi Hotel.
This time, not only was Yuantu Investment Company making an effort, but Muxin Hotel was also discussing such matters.
Su Yue saw that Mu Ruguang was holding a meeting and quietly waited in the office.
They were merely cooperating companies; there was no reason for him to listen to their internal arrangements.
In just over ten minutes, Mu Ruguang walked in from outside with a notebook, his face full of surprise: "General Manager Su."
He originally thought Su Yue wouldn't bother with the subsequent matters, but he didn't expect Su Yue to come back here again.
Su Yue originally thought Mu Ruguang lacked ambition, but now he realized that Mu Ruguang was simply unwilling to reveal his sharpness in front of him.
Such people are often the most terrifying; their forbearance is extremely powerful.
With people from both sides working to damage Huashi Hotel's reputation online, he believed there should be good news by tomorrow morning.
Since Su Yue was their distinguished guest, Mu Ruguang quickly had his Secretary book a hotel outside for him to stay temporarily.
Su Yue knew that the evening was not their working time, so he followed their arrangement and went to the best room in Muxin Hotel.
After a day of busyness, his energy and spirit had long reached a point of exhaustion.
As soon as he lay down, a wave of sleepiness came over him, causing him to fall into a deep sleep.
He didn't know how much time had passed when the phone on the bedside table rang.
Su Yue reached out and fumbled for the phone on the bedside table, casually putting it on speakerphone: "What is it?"
Mu Ruguang heard Su Yue's still lazy voice and knew he must still be resting.
Then, Mu Ruguang quickly apologized: "Sorry for calling you so early. Could you take a look at our message?"
Su Yue didn't know why Mu Ruguang wanted him to look at the message and subconsciously glanced at the message on his phone.
Instantly, all his sleepiness vanished, and he sat up in bed, his face full of shock: "This..."
Mu Ruguang laughed heartily: "There was a loophole in Huashi Hotel's management, and many guests left negative reviews inside."
Su Yue looked at the negative reviews inside and couldn't help but ponder for a moment.
In just a few seconds, he reacted.
Half of these negative reviews should have been given by them, and the other half were given by the people he arranged.
Huashi Hotel's capital chain had broken, and they had no money to clarify such matters.
Moreover, the entire matter was well-founded, leaving Huashi Hotel with no way to refute it.
Since the negative reviews had already become a trending topic, Su Yue couldn't help but say to Mu Ruguang: "Let's meet and talk. I'll wait for you at the company."
He came here to deal with matters; there was no reason to lie in the hotel and waste time.
It didn't take long for Su Yue to freshen up and arrive at Muxin Hotel's office.
At this time, Mu Ruguang was already sitting in the office, his face full of excitement: "Huashi Hotel doesn't even have public relations."
If Huashi Hotel had even a little public relations, they would surely not allow such a matter to be on the trending topics.
Just from this, one could tell that Huashi Hotel most likely didn't secure investment.
Otherwise, the investment company wouldn't do nothing.
Su Yue glanced in Mu Ruguang's direction: "I wonder what President Mu is considering."
What he should be considering now is the control of Muxin Hotel, not the problems of Huashi Hotel.
When Mu Ruguang heard Su Yue's question, he subconsciously wanted to answer.
Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and quickly changed his words: "General Manager Su, we are on the same boat now. You can't be so heartless as to kick us off."
These few words demonstrated his position, as if he wanted Su Yue to feel reassured.
Yuantu Investment Company invested in them at such a critical time. If they repaid kindness with enmity, their fate should be similar to that of Huashi Hotel.
Su Yue saw Mu Ruguang say this, put his hands on his chest, and nodded with satisfaction: "I want to see your stock hit the upper limit by nine o'clock. I don't need to teach you how to do it, right?"
Mu Ruguang already felt a sense of fear towards Su Yue. How could he openly oppose them? He quickly responded: "Just you wait and see. Our stock will at least double this time."
