Chapter 302: Certain Loss

A mall was a large investment with small returns. At the same time, there was considerable risk. People speculated that Lu Ming would definitely lose everything! It seems that the media’s praise for Lu Ming is over the top, so much so that he’s feeling smug!

This new mall will probably close down soon!

Everyone looked like they were waiting to watch a good show. They were even looking forward to the construction of the land in Shaping. They could not wait to see Lu Ming suffer. No one can be a victor all the time unless he’s superhuman. Therefore, they hoped that Lu Ming would be an ordinary person like them and suffer a huge setback in this matter!

In Beijing.

As Lu Ming’s cell phone and improved smart appliances had been a huge success in the market, the Tang family, his sworn enemy, was naturally furious. Their status in the chip industry had already begun to destabilize. In a few days, the Lu Ming Corporation would probably catch up and pull them down from their pedestal!

How long has it been!?

Is he going to surpass us? Even the customer base that we’d painstakingly built was taken away by the Lu Ming Corporation. If not for No. 5’s reminder, we would probably have lost a lot of money this time! We’ll probably have to pay back what we earned previously. Fortunately, we’ve retained at least a portion of our customers, giving us a chance to counterattack.

But just thinking about the amount of money spent gave the old master a headache.

Today, he had changed into a dark Tang suit. Although he looked elegant, it did not hide his fatigue. The faint dark circles under his eyes and the blood vessels in the white of his eyes seemed to indicate that he was on the verge of reaching his limit.

In order to protect the Tang family’s foundation in the chip industry, he had been working non-stop for more than ten hours. He kept sighing in his heart. If only he was forty years younger. After all, staying up late was not a problem for him at that time. Even if he did not sleep for dozens of hours, it would not be a problem.

Unlike now, when his body couldn’t take it anymore. No matter where he was, he felt uncomfortable. His head was dizzy. However, he still had to force himself to wake up and catch up with his good friend. In fact, he had thought of changing the time to receive him, but by the time he was done, it was already too late to change his schedule.

So when his eyelids felt heavy, he pinched himself to stay awake. For some reason, this suddenly made him feel like he was in school when he was young. He sighed helplessly. How old am I? Why do I have to suffer like this? If not for Lu Ming, would I be like this?

Therefore, his impression of this person fell further.

His good friend seemed to have noticed his fatigue and said, “You must be quite busy recently, right? Every time the boss of Lu Ming Corporation enters an industry, he will stir up a storm, causing us to be restless! Young people are so energetic. If we were any weaker, we might have been eliminated long ago.”

He paused for a moment and continued, “Many small companies have closed down because of his appearance. There are even many medium-sized companies among them. At this rate of growth, Lu Ming might really succeed in creating a business empire that belongs to him. He’s a true genius. It’s not that I want to say this, but I think he’s born to be in this circle.”

The praises were endless. The more the old man listened, the more impatient he became. Who would want to hear so many praises about their enemy? He’s just lucky to have met a good team. Without the support of those people, Lu Ming could not have done so much!

Why do good things always belong to others?

He thought of He Xiaopeng. If it weren’t for the fact that Mo. 3’s husband was crazy, Lu Ming’s current achievements would belong to his Tang family! At least they wouldn’t be reduced to this state where they couldn’t poach He Xiaopeng! No matter how tempting their salary was, the other party wasn’t tempted.

He was also curious. What kind of charisma does Lu Ming have to make He Xiaopeng do this? Is he bewitched?

Just as he was deep in thought, his good friend did not seem to have noticed his displeasure and said, “I remember that the boss of Lu Ming Corporation is your grandson in a sense, right? How bad can your relationship with him be? Why don’t you get close to him?”

How bad can it be?

Tang Boyan sneered. We’ve already reached the point where we’d fight to the death. We’re looking for an opportunity to kill each other. One of us must die! There’s no room for negotiation. I’d rather die than get close to Lu Ming! Why should I seek help from someone I look down on?

Thinking of this, he kept telling himself that all of this was only temporary. Soon Lu Ming would fall back to the bottom!

He said with a stiff expression, “We’re enemies. The Tang family played a part in forcing him and his mother into a corner back then.”

Not to mention, he indirectly found someone to kill the other party’s mother.

Only then did his good friend realize that Tang Boyan’s expression was not right. So that’s the case? He had more or less heard about this matter, but he had never taken it to heart. This was because he did not think that the Tang family would use such a shameful method to deal with an ordinary person. He did not expect it to be true.

He was stunned for a moment before he smiled awkwardly and said, “Look at my memory. Actually, it’s a good thing that I don’t have a good relationship with him. That’s because I heard that he spent a huge sum of money to buy a large piece of land in Shaping in the capital. It’s said that he wants to build a mall or entertainment facilities there. Everyone knows Shaping is a wasteland. He will definitely lose a huge sum of money this time!”

Building a mall in such a deserted place? Is Lu Ming out of his mind?

His judgment should not be so bad. This was a low-level mistake that even a newbie would not make. Could it be a rumor? The old man was more inclined to the latter. Although he said that he looked down on Lu Ming, he more or less knew Lu Ming’s strength. With this person’s personality, this matter might not be so simple!

“Are you sure this information is true? Maybe he wants to build a private house or something?”

However, his good friend shook his head and explained, “I can guarantee that this news is most likely true. That’s because the person who said this is one of the core members of Lu Ming’s team. It seems that when someone was chatting with him, the other party accidentally let it slip. When he asked for the reason, the other party stopped talking.

I’m guessing that they don’t know what Lu Ming is thinking either. This is too strange. His actions have always exceeded our expectations. Although he has achieved unexpected success the previous few times, he won’t be so lucky this time! He will definitely suffer a loss!”
