The CEO's Life is Difficult I

Just as the British Queen and Princess declared war secretly against the Chinese powerhouse; that same morning Tang Wan started by waking her daughter up for school, that lazy bum just wouldn't wake up no matter what!

"Tangtang! If you don't wake up now, I won't allow you to go and play with Yuan Ye!"

The moment her words fell a blur passed by her straight to the toilet.

A few minutes later Tangtang looked at her angry mother with a bright smile as she ate her cereal, this was her last year in high school, but the girl behaved as if she still was in her first year.

She saw her mother fiddle with the phone and knew she was working.

"Mother, what are you doing?"

"..."

"Mother?"

"Tang Tang finish your cereal, you're late for school! I'm busy!" Tang Wan billowed in rage and kept looking at her phone, but the moment she saw her phone, her face would always contort into that smile!

She drove her Range Rover to Tang Tang's high school and left her there before making her way to Maple Corporation.

She wasn't even allowed to leave the car when someone opened the door forcefully!

"Boss, we need you now!" A beautiful woman with auburn hair pulled her arm and indicated the guards to park the car.

"San Yu, calm down!" She tried to ease down her secretary, but something big must have happened.

"Boss, how do you want me to calm down? Our stocks went up by thirty per fucking cent in a day!"

Never in her life had Tang Wan seen her secretary curse before; and also, never had the shares gone so high in a single day.

The two entered a massive office shortly after where twenty people awaited.

Tang Wan gulped, knowing that it would be chaotic today.

She sat down and as soon as she did so, the news came raining.

...

"Shenzhen's resort got a thousand reservations ahead of schedule for the next holiday!"

"Our gyms were said to have been sporting events in social media, hundreds of thousands have shown interest in registering!"

"We've got calls from three assembly companies interested in assembly companies interested in providing their services for our latest phone model!"

...

The CEO of Maple didn't know if she should laugh or cry.

It was mad, just one day!

"Xinwei!"

"Yes, my Lady!"

"I want you to send the production team of the liquor branches to Hermes' Wings headquarters ASAP! I want it for Yesterday! They have already achieved their end of the deal... a single day, who could have thought." She sighed not in exasperation but in plain unrealness; things are looking better than ever.

"Yes!" The man nodded and went on with his job.

"Luoyi!"

"Orders!"

"Purchase as many stocks of Yu Lei as possible! and be advised of the periods Hermes' shares hit key resistances; I want you to buy as many as possible as low as possible, don't sell a single one! do you understand? also, I need you to research for me who the shareholders with more than 2% are, we will buy their shares, make sure to strike a nice deal and use the name of the Tang Clan if necessary."

"Yes boss, on it... but Yu Lei's traders are currently holding, it won't be easy!"

"Raise the price at least two pips and buy as many as possible, rest assured that Hermes is going to be big~ there won't be another chance like this to invest in it."

"Understood!"

"Boss! There is bad news!" someone else slammed the door open frantically.

Tang Wan frowned, what bad news could there possibly be?

"Someone bought 5% of our stocks yesterday after a squeeze... their assets have increased 30% so far!"

Her face paled at that, 'D-Don't tell me, she knew...'

"It was CEO Lin, apparently she predicted this and bought as many as possible!"

*PAM!*

The CEO slammed the table, astounding everyone in the room.

'BITCH! SHE KNEW! SHE MOVED FASTER THAN ME!'

Tang Wan opened her laptop and got into Nikkei's official site where the Asian stocks were posted.

'Yu Lei's hit of 120% per cent yearly increase in the stock market after CEO Lin announced her public alliance with Hermes' Wings Chairman Vlad Tepes in the joint formation of an entertainment corporation! International markets are now betting on China! Formal conference to take place today to discuss the intricacies!'

'She took advantage of it! She knew he was going to help me, but I didn't think it would be this fast and efficient. Damn it! She now has 5% of maple, that's too much... I can't purposely short my own company!'

For a corporation as big as theirs, 5% must have represented a lot of Lin Ruoxi's wealth, but that was secure wealth that she would no doubt profit from so long as Maple kept their relationship with Hermes.

'A great chunk is in Yu Lei, another chunk is in Maple. I wouldn't even doubt that she got rid of her other investments just to purchase 5% of my shares...'

In this rivalry to determine China's richest woman, Lin Ruoxi just made a power move.

"Buy as many stocks of Yu Lei as possible, I don't care about the cost! I want to be on her board of directors, do you get me?!" She screamed with the loudest voice possible, scaring everyone present!

Two can play that game!

'She's playing dirty! She knows as long as we are supported by him, our companies will increase in value, but she wasn't shy enough to play her cards first and get the impulse!'

The CEO looked at her phone.

No messages.

'Should I contact him first? But won't it be too desperate?'

'Would Lin Ruoxi call him even if it seemed desperate? Of course, that ice bitch would!'

This is war!
