Wu Hongyi and his family of three were in a serious car accident, and the first person to get the news was Ye Huanrong, who had sent an invitation tonight.
When he arrived at the scene, he saw a very tragic scene.
The scene had been cordoned off by the police, and samples were being taken for evidence.
In addition to the police, ambulances and emergency rescue teams had also arrived.
Inside the cordon, an extended bulletproof vehicle was extremely twisted, and there were already four people covered in white cloths by the roadside, one of whom was Wu Hongyi's driver, one of his bodyguards, and the other was Wu Hongyi's wife.
The last person was the truck driver.
As for Wu Hongyi, he had not been rescued yet, his body was trapped in the deformed car body, he was in a coma, and bright red blood was flowing down his face.
The only other person still alive was a two-year-old child, who was being held by a nurse and crying loudly.
The child's miserable cries, combined with the tragic scene in front of them, made the onlookers feel heartbroken. Some women had already turned their heads away and dared not look again, while many others were praying with their eyes closed.
'It's over, something terrible has happened!'
'If I hadn't made an appointment with him tonight, then this tragedy wouldn't have happened.'
Ye Huanrong, who had just arrived, had this thought flash through his mind, followed by countless feelings of self-blame and remorse.
'Doctor, you must do your best to save him, at any cost. Don't worry about the money,'
Ye Huanrong shouted at the doctor rushing to the scene.
'Okay, we will definitely do our best to save him, don't worry!'
'The premise is to get him out of the car as soon as possible. For now, we can only do what we can to stop the bleeding,'
The doctor said, and took a new piece of gauze from his assistant to continue bandaging Wu Hongyi.
Ye Huanrong could only step aside and kept dialling on his phone, needing to inform the Wu family of Wu Hongyi's accident as soon as possible.
That night, the people of London were resting as usual.
However, the upper class in the UK, especially the various bigwigs within the Chinese business consortium, were all paying attention to the news of Wu Hongyi's car accident.
Wu Hongyi did not die instantly, and was still in a coma. If something really did happen to him, it would definitely have a huge impact on the entire Chinese business consortium.
It can be said that the life and death of Wu Hongyi is of immediate concern to many people.
There are many people who want him to live, but there are even more people who want him dead!
They can't wait for the Chinese business consortium to fall into chaos!
...
'Jacob, this Wu Honglin we supported really hasn't let us down,'
'The only regret is that Wu Hongyi did not die on the spot and is still in critical condition.'
'...'
Among the Rothschild family, Evelyn Rothschild got the exact news and stopped vomiting. She immediately reported the good news to Jacob Rothschild and also told the latter what she had learned.
It was obvious from the on-site investigation that the truck driver was driving a motor vehicle after drinking, and he himself also died on the spot.
On the surface, it appeared to be a random event.
'Is he still being resuscitated?'
'Is there any chance we can get to him in the hospital?'
After listening to this, Jacob Rothschild pondered for a moment before suggesting to Evelyn Rothschild.
Evelyn Rothschild shook her head: 'I've considered it too, but there's no way we can get to him.'
'The Wu family and the Chinese business consortium have already mobilised medical resources and set up extremely tight security.'
'Our chances of success are slim, and we'll be more likely to be exposed, so I've given up.'
Jacob Rothschild smiled: 'It seems that he will have to rely on his own luck. We also need all the luck we can get.'
'But in any case, even if Wu Hongyi is saved, he will not be able to handle the affairs of the Chinese Business Consortium for a short period of time.'
'We don't have enough time. We need to let Wu Honglin complete the takeover as soon as possible.'
'But we have to be careful about the method, not to reveal our intentions too obviously, so as to avoid being discovered.'
Evelyn Rothschild nodded in agreement: 'I know.'
'As long as the Chinese business consortium encounters pressure, they will find a way to re-elect the right person.'
'However, in order to prevent them from falling to Xia Yu, we still need to take some supplementary measures.'
...
Not long after Wu Hongyi's accident, in fact, the net had already received the news, and through encrypted satellite communication, the news was sent to Xiangjiang, and soon reached Xia Yu's hands.
Upon seeing the news of Wu Hongyi's accident, Xia Yu was also shocked the moment he saw it. He even had an urge to immediately go to the UK.
After all, Wu Hongyi was not only the leader of the Chinese business consortium, but also one of his rare friends.
However, after the initial shock, Xia Yu immediately calmed down.
He could not risk his life!
Having seen the darkness of society and knowing the cruelty of capital, he would always suspect the worst about a matter or a person.
Although accidents happened all the time, Xia Yu did not believe it would happen to Wu Hongyi by such a coincidence!
Moreover, the truck driver died on the spot, which smacked of a cover-up.
There was nothing he could do but stay in Hong Kong, while ordering Luo Wang to investigate the situation and pay close attention to the situation in the UK, especially changes in the Chinese business consortium.
After just two days of observation, Xia Yu couldn't help but become enraged when he saw the news.
Wu Hongyi had been rescued from the brink of death, and had woken up for a few minutes before passing out again.
However, there was a groundless rumour circulating in the UK.
The chairman of Huashang Bank, Wu Hongyi, had an accident because his existence was hindering Xia Yu's plan to further expand his influence in the UK. Only when Wu Hongyi fell, Xia Yu would be able to take over Huashang Group and use the resources of Huashang Group to grow his own company.
Whether or not this was true, Xia Yu himself knew better than anyone else.
The purpose of these rumours was to damage his reputation and prevent him from taking control of the Chinese Business Consortium after Wu Hongyi fell.
Whether others believed it or not, the news was enough to subconsciously make the members of the Huajin Club resist Xia Yu.
Following the thinking of whoever benefits is the suspect, Xia Yu directly narrowed down the scope of suspicion.
If Wu Hongyi fell, the person in the Wu family who benefited the most would definitely be Wu Honglin, and he was definitely highly suspicious.
Given his past misdeeds, even if he has performed outstandingly in recent years, it cannot change his nature.
And outside the Chinese business consortium, there are definitely more enemies. It is difficult to guarantee that it is not due to business competition that someone has taken desperate measures and committed murder.
The operators of every company that has been brought down by the Chinese business consortium are all suspects.
However, when one considers the recent actions of the Rothschild family against himself and Xiangjiang, it is difficult for Xia Yu not to suspect that the Rothschild family was also behind this incident.
With the strength of the Rothschild family, they can definitely complete this task perfectly.
The most important thing is that the Rothschild family has a good reason to deal with the Chinese business consortium.
Whether this is the case or not requires further investigation.
Xia Yu placed the breakthrough on Wu Honglin!
The magnifying glass of the net was trained on Wu Honglin, and his entire rise to power was uncovered. The more this investigation continued, the more irregularities were found.
Combined with what has been investigated in recent days, Wu Honglin has taken advantage of Wu Hongyi's coma to persuade the Wu family's family council to temporarily replace Wu Hongyi and become the acting head of the Wu family.
Furthermore, Wu Honglin has frequently sought out directors of the Huashang Bank with the intention of re-electing the bank's board of directors and electing himself as chairman.
Xia Yu can make a judgment that Wu Hongyi's accident is 90% related to Wu Honglin!
Wu Honglin's rise to power over the years has been supported by a mysterious force. His repeated successes may seem very normal, but many of them have an element of chance and do not follow strict business logic.
Wu Honglin is not a reincarnated being, so it is impossible for him to seize opportunities precisely every time. Therefore, there must be a hand behind his success.
This time, the plot is almost revealed, and the person behind the scenes must feel that it is time to close in.
Xia Yu could not remain indifferent to something that was about to get out of control.
He had allowed Wu Hongyi to take control because he trusted him.
Now that Wu Hongyi could no longer control the situation, Xia Yu would take back control. As the rumours had said, in the face of absolute power, all rumours would fall apart and dare not appear!
Wu Honglin had dared to reach out, so Xia Yu naturally would not hold back.
New accounts and old accounts would be settled together.
One word:
Kill!
