Chapter 307: All-out attack

'Brother Ming, why did you propose to buy the guy's shares today? Didn't we agree to hit his business first and buy at the lowest price? Now won't he know in advance? If he sells today, won't you lose money, Brother Ming?' Tang Ran asked curiously.

Now that the shareholders' meeting of Tang Dynasty Bank had ended, Zhou Ming, Tang Ran and other core members of the family's decision-making team had come to the adjacent lounge. Thinking about the situation in the meeting room just now, Tang Ran had this question.

As Tang Ran asked the question, Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin also leaned over curiously, because they also wanted to know what Zhou Ming really thought. After all, they have seen too many impossibilities in Zhou Ming, whether it is pushing Tang Ran to the position of head of the Tang family, or going to Iraq alone, where a major war is imminent, to change the almost impossible war situation, forcing the US president to sit still.

Each of these ideas is very unexpected, and that is precisely why they cannot help but be curious about what idea Zhou Ming has this time.

However, in the face of the curiosity of all the Tang family members, Zhou Ming simply folded his arms and replied, 'What kind of idea could there be? It's just that I came here today and stood up because of some unexpected circumstances. I didn't think of any other excuses at the last minute, so I used this one. Besides, I also have some understanding of Tang An. I feel that with his personality, he will not agree, so I just said it.'

Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin were stunned when they heard Zhou Ming's words. They stared at him with disbelief, and asked in a daze, 'Just...that's it? You really don't have any other ideas?'

Zhou Ming's subsequent affirmative nod mercilessly shattered their last illusions and left them in disarray, because they had been waiting with great anticipation for Zhou Ming to come up with an idea that would take them by surprise. This idea is indeed very surprising, but it also shows a lack of seriousness. How can you improvise something so important at the last minute to solve an emergency?

Indeed, with Tang An's personality, he would definitely refuse because he felt his dignity had been insulted. But there is also the possibility that he would agree directly, even if it is only a one in ten thousand chance. What if you win?

Zhou Ming knew exactly what they were thinking, so he continued, 'In fact, it doesn't matter if he says yes or no. Our ultimate goal is to buy out his shares, to stop the Tang family from splitting up. It's just a matter of whether we spend a little more or a little less.'

Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin felt very helpless. Indeed, as Zhou Ming himself had said, their previous strategy had been to remove the root of the problem.

The reason for Tang An's appeal is ultimately the shares he holds in Tang Dynasty Bank. So if they just take away his shares, everything will be solved; after all, most of them are followers, and if there is a threat to their interests, they will naturally have to compromise. There may be a few diehards, but it's hard to deal with a group of people, but it's easy to deal with just a few individuals.

A strategy is certainly not wrong, but it seems that it is not as easy as it seems. And it's not just a matter of spending a 'little' or 'a lot' more, at least it's a difference of tens of billions, how can it not make people anxious?

Zhou Ming also understood that his words were a bit irresponsible, so he scratched his head and continued, 'Actually, at that time, I also thought that if Tang An really agreed, then I would pay for any losses. A hundred billion is a hundred billion, I don't think I can't afford it.'

Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin both let out a sigh of relief, but before they could say anything, Tang Ran said, 'Well, Uncle and Auntie Tang, now that this matter is over, things are still going according to our pre-calculated plan predicted, so no matter what Ming does, he is right. And Ming is actually helping our Tang family. Even if Tang An really agrees today, we can't let Ming pay this money!'

Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin looked at each other helplessly. It occurred to them that although Tang Ran was the head of the Tang family, she was probably thinking of the surname Zhou.

Thinking this, they could only follow Tang Ran's lead and say, 'Mr. Zhou Ming, we actually didn't mean it like that. We just hope that this matter can be handled in secret. It doesn't matter about compensation or not. Our Tang family is not that petty.'

Tang Jingsheng then asked Zhou Ming, 'The matter is in the past, and now we are just mending the fold after the sheep is lost. Compared to this, what do you think we should do next?'

'Next? Of course, we should just get on with what we were doing. I think our plan is ready, isn't it? We have to redeem the flag we set at the meeting today, don't we? Otherwise, we'll really be slapped in the face, and that's no honourable thing,' said Zhou Ming. 'So let's start tomorrow, and get all the plans going together.'

Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin both nodded in agreement. Then Zhou Ming left with Tang Ran, and as they left, Tang Huiyin said to Tang Jingsheng with emotion, 'It seems that our clan chief is afraid that he really will have to change his surname to Zhou!'

Tang Jingsheng just laughed and didn't say anything in response. Tang Huiyin continued, 'But fortunately, that Zhou Ming doesn't have any evil intentions regarding the Tang family's wealth.'

'Although it's hard to understand, that's the main reason I trust him,' said Tang Jingsheng.

'In fact, I'm curious why he wouldn't be tempted by our wealth. Could it be that he feels that once he has Tang Ran, he has control of the entire Tang family?' Tang Huiyin said.

'I don't think he thinks that way. I would say that he doesn't look down on the wealth of our Tang family,' said Tang Jingsheng. Tang Huiyin's eyes widened at that, and Tang Jingsheng continued, 'Don't look at me like that. I know it's hard to believe, but I just because he is destined to stand on a higher level, like an adult. Do you think he would rob a toy that a child treasures as a treasure?'

At that time, Tang Huiyin felt that her three views had been subverted, and she felt that her past perceptions were all biased.

You need to know that their Down family, as the core family of the California consortium, controlled more than 10 trillion dollars in wealth, and even included Skunkworks, one of the most cutting-edge technology companies in the United States. It was also hard to believe that such a family could be compared to a child's toy.

In the end Tang Huiyin gave up rubbing her temples and said, 'I'm not going to think about it anymore. Anyway, your ideas are beyond my comprehension. But I trust your judgment, just as I trusted it twenty years ago when you gave up your inheritance to help Tang Ran's father rise to power.'

Tang Jing smiled. He looked at Tang Huiyin and said, 'Thank you very much. In fact, I know that you have also helped me a lot behind the scenes. Sometimes I also think, if we weren't related by blood, how good it would be.'

That day , the Tang family and Zhou Ming's targeting of Tang An's industries began, and when it comes to this targeting, the actual approach taken at the meeting with Zhou Ming meeting, the approach taken was the same as Zhou Ming's: one word – hatred. In all the industries invested in by Tang An, he hated him no matter what the cost.

As a member of the family member, Tang An's investment industries have no secrets from the Tang family at all. The industries he is mainly involved in are network technology companies and insurance companies, so these companies have suffered because of Tang An.

First, the network The network technology company suffered first. Tang An's main investment was in an email and bbs company, which was attacked by hackers that very night, and the server was paralyzed. The next day's newspaper reported that 'there was a huge loophole in server management, and all users suffered huge losses.'

Although the company activated the emergency mechanism as soon as possible, it was still unable to return to normal within a short period of time.

And when Tang An network technology company had an accident, all of San Francisco's outdoor suddenly flooded with Yahoo mailboxes and bbs. This is another website invested in by a member of the Tang family, and it is also the website that Zhou Ming and Tang Jingsheng invested in to defeat Tang An and take over the market he developed.

'Damn bastard! This Yahoo company is definitely something that the little bitch Tang Ran came up with, with the aim of stealing the market from me. And that hacking attack was also their doing. It's downright dirty and despicable!

Tang An was ranting and raving in his office, ranting and raving. However, his abuse did not solve the problem. On the same day, the San Francisco media revealed that the insurance company in which Tang An had invested mainly had issues with fraudulent agreements, overbearing terms and conditions, and claims and even broadcast a video of a reporter disguised as an ordinary policyholder going into the insurance company to apply for and sign an insurance contract, and having a professional lawyer comment on the problems.

'Based on the film we I can say with complete certainty that this insurance company is committing serious fraud. When you go to sign the contract, the insurance company's salesperson will promise you a lot of coverage , but as we can see, these promises are actually made ambiguous in the contract, which shows that the insurance company does not intend to honour this promise.'

'In addition to the agent's promise, we can also see in the contract that the insurance company has many restrictions on claims, but says nothing about its own requirements. It also uses a lot of vague terms for its own responsibilities. I can be sure that whoever helped the insurance company draw up the contract must be a legal expert, because only in this way can the insurance company easily shirk its responsibility when something goes wrong.

With the broadcast of this investigation, the people of San Francisco were shocked once again, and at the same time, several other insurance companies also appeared on prime time on major channels. San Francisco was once again shocked by the broadcast of this investigation, while several other insurance companies also appeared on prime time on major channels, and all of them coincidentally chose the words 'When buying insurance, choose an insurance company that can be relied upon to shoulder its responsibilities'. There was no doubt that they were all targeting Tang An.

In Tang An's office he violently pushed everything on his desk onto the floor and smashed his favourite pair of blue and white porcelain vases.

Finally, Tang An picked up the phone and yelled at the other end of the line: 'Listen up, you guys, I don't care what you do, but you must rebuild the company's reputation. I can invest another 10 million . I just want you all to hold on and defend your market. Even if you have to kneel down and beg your customers, you must not let our customers leave. Do you all understand?'

After saying these last words, Tang An slammed the phone down again, then panted, 'You guys, are you going to come after me with everything you've got? But you won't because I still have 10% of the shares in the Tang Dynasty Bank. We are in this together, so no matter who you put forward, I will benefit.'

Thinking about this, Tang An grinned again: 'I know you want to force me to give in, but you are dreaming!'

Tang An said this, but he still did not realise that Zhou Ming and the Tang family were attacking him on all fronts.
