Wu Jingren knew very well that this so-called "negotiation" was just a trap set by the other party to force him to submit and cede his interests.

Faced with such a situation, he seems to have no choice but to compromise.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Zhou Qi and his party appeared at the gate of Wu's Shipyard. No one stopped them and they walked straight inside.

For Zhou Qi, this was his first time stepping into a shipyard, and he felt a mixture of novelty and curiosity.

Following the noise, they found Wu Jingren's office, which was already crowded with people and the scene was in chaos.

Zhou Qinghong stepped forward and called out the name "Hualong", instantly attracting everyone's attention.

People looked at it sideways, not understanding why this company, famous for its electrical appliances and real estate, would get involved.

"Dad, I seemed to hear Hualong's people coming." Wu Xingjian said softly, breaking the silence in the room.

Wu Jingren was immersed in his own world. When he heard his son's words, the cigarette in his hand shook suddenly - the person he had been waiting for had finally arrived.

He quickly put out his cigarette and a serious expression appeared on his face.

Taking a deep breath, Wu Jingren slowly stood up.

"Click", the sound of the door lock opening was heard.

Before he could move, the door was pushed open by someone outside, and a group of people rushed in and surrounded him in an instant.

Someone pulled his collar and the scene was very chaotic for a while.

Wu Jingren finally calmed down the crowd's excitement, and his eyes turned to Zhou Qi and his entourage who were standing at the door not far away.

Wu Jingren has learned everything from his son Wu Xingjian: this young man is the actual controller of Hualong Group and the man behind the scenes who has put him in this predicament.

Not daring to neglect, Wu Jingren hurriedly walked towards Zhou Qi and apologized sincerely: "Mr. Zhou, I am Wu Jingren, the owner of the shipyard and the father of Wu Xingjian.

What happened before was because my child was ignorant and I didn’t teach him well. I hope Mr. Zhou can be magnanimous and give us a chance.”

"I know saying sorry won't do any good."

Wu Jingren continued, "I am willing to transfer 30% of the shares of the shipyard to Mr. Zhou free of charge to show my sincerity."

However, Zhou Qi did not give him a chance to respond and interrupted him directly: "I am not here to listen to your explanation. I will give you a way out. Buy this shipyard for 50 million."

What? Fifty million? Wu Jingren's face suddenly changed, he was shocked and angry: "Boss Zhou, the market value of this shipyard is at least five hundred million, you want to buy it for fifty million? Are you kidding me?"

Although he was mentally prepared and knew that Zhou Qi would not let them go easily, such an offer still exceeded his expectations.

"Yesterday you said you wanted to leave a way out for the Wu family."

Wu Xingjian questioned angrily, pointing at Zhou Qi: "What does this mean now? Even if you sell the shipyard as scrap metal, it's worth more!"

Zhou Qi was unmoved by Wu Xingjian's questioning and just looked at Wu Jingren calmly:

"If you make a mistake, you must bear the consequences. I can destroy your shipyard, and I can also make the Wu family disappear completely in Hai City. I'm giving you this choice because your son knelt down and begged for mercy yesterday."

"Fifty million! It's up to you whether to sell it or not."

Zhou Qi added: "If you don't sell it, you can just wait and see the shipyard go bankrupt."

Faced with Zhou Qi's tough attitude, the Wu family's foundation in Hai City for many years seemed to be shaky in an instant.

The Wu family’s business is far more than just the shipyard, but the shipyard is their core industry.

Wu Jingren usually just laughed it off when someone claimed that he could completely destroy the Wu family's foundation in Hai City. However, the young man in front of him was extraordinary.

The Bao family's comprehensive suppression of the Wu family has demonstrated the influence of this young man - a force that the Wu family cannot resist.

If you offend such a force, the consequences will be disastrous.

Without the support of the Bao family, the shipyard would be almost unable to operate.

Now that it has been banned, the entire industry has also been targeted, leaving the Wu family with almost no breathing room.

If the shipyard cannot continue to operate, it will be extremely difficult to sell it.

Who would be willing to offend the Bao family just to take over this hot potato?

Even if the equipment was sold as scrap metal, it would be difficult to recover much of the cost. In this situation, Wu Jingren felt extremely angry and powerless.

Faced with pressure from within the family, Wu Jingren proposed the idea of ​​raising the offer price to sell the shipyard.

This proposal immediately aroused strong opposition from family members, who believed that this was an ancestral business and should not be easily abandoned, and insisted that the selling price could not be lower than 600 million.

Wu Jingren tried to sell most of his shares on his own, but was boycotted by other shareholders.

Seeing the chaos within the family, Wu Jingren shouted angrily: "Tell me, who can take over our shipyard now?"

He knew very well that finding a buyer was an almost impossible task under the current circumstances.

Wu Jingren's voice echoed in the silent air: "Don't you understand why they are here?"

Cancellation of cooperation, payment collection, compensation for breach of contract - these problems hung over the Wu family like a dark cloud.

Wu Jingren turned to Zhou Qi and tried to explain the value of the shipyard equipment, but Zhou Qi interrupted him coldly: "You are not qualified to negotiate with me."

"This shipyard is worth 400 million even in its troubled times."

Wu Jingren said helplessly: "I lost, I admit it, but I hope you can give us a way to survive."

Zhou Qi was not shaken at all: "I'll give you five minutes to think about it. 50 million for the entire acquisition. This is a fair price."

When the creditors heard the news, they immediately encouraged the Wu family to agree to the sale. After all, 50 million would allow them to get some money back.

Faced with the pressure, the Wu family members felt extremely troubled. Their families and lives were waiting for them to take care of, and these debt collectors were already making it difficult for them to bear.

Finally, Wu Jingren's younger sister broke the silence: "I agree to sell it."

Her words caused others to look at her in awe.

She added: "But all problems must be solved together, and the 50 million cannot involve any debt."

These words made the other members of the Wu family start to rethink. If the Bao family continued to block it, the shipyard would definitely not be able to operate.

If you don't sell it, the loss may be greater, and Wu Jingren's behavior may also affect the amount of money you get in the end. Although the 50 million is not divided according to shares, at least you can get it now.

"Dad, aunt, you can't sell it..." Wu Xingjian pleaded, thinking that the price was too low.

However, Wu Jingren's younger sister angrily slapped him: "Shut up! All this is because of you!"

Wu Xingjian covered his face and stood there in a daze. The atmosphere became tense again.

The aunt was usually very nice to him, but at this moment her gaze was like everyone else's, as if she wanted to swallow him up.

Before I could react, I felt the atmosphere around me suddenly change.

In the past, his relatives’ favor was mostly due to the dividends from the shipyard, which made him feel like he was being pampered.

Now that the shipyard is in trouble, those hidden true faces can no longer be hidden.
