Offer To The CEO

322 Starting Lu Corporation's Downfall - Part 1

Wednesday, continued …

As soon as Anna was sitting comfortably in the car taking both of them back to Hou Enterprises, Anna turned to Hou Yi "What is going on?You have been up to something for at least a week?And I know that it is not a surprise for me."

"Who is to say that is not a surprise," came the calm collected response from Hou Yi

"If it was, you would not be in the office as much as you are."

"Hou Enterprises cannot take care of itself, particularly give our expansions from our traditional areas of operation.Plus there has been a few things that have taken me away from the office.And no, I am not blaming you, the cause of that is your ex."

"Yi, stop being smart and tell me.Whatever is going on is more than just simple expansion into non-traditional areas of business.You are too distracted for it to simply be business."

Hou Yi, did not want her stressing out but if he continued to put off telling her what he had been up to, she would simply stress out more.The problem was that he was so annoyed with himself that he had not prevented Anna from getting hurt, and was ready to kill the bodyguards, who had not been on the ball to determine the threats to them.But did she really need to take on all the stress related to his business tactics given it has only been five weeks since they married?

Anna observing her husband from the side, knew that he was still stalling and more sharply said "Stop Stalling and tell me."

He took a breath before starting."You know how disappointed in myself I am that I have, since we married let you get physically hurt due to those two idiots on three occasions…"

"Yi quit blaming yourself.It would have happened regardless as Lu Jinhu as you have told me on several occasions is a spoiled brat, who if he does not get his way resorts to violence and intimidation.That is a perfect way do describe what happened in my relationship with him and he has not, and I believe will not change.Now tell me, or …"

"Fine.You remember those admissions you manipulated out of Inspector Gang in your police interview that ended …"

"Yi do not say badly.Despite the broken leg, that was so much fun.He was so easy to twist around, and get information out of, all I did was push a little too much."Hou Yi observed that his beautiful wife had a smug look on her face, proud that she had used her skills to manipulate despite the eventual outcome.

"Uncle Feng and his trusted people within the security team were able to get lots of information from the spies that either them or ourselves located had been maneuvered into place by the Lu's or simply manipulated into being their spies.You know all I know about Du XuXu, but I have also gathered bits and peices of information about Lu Corporation's tactics over the years.I simply decided to work, quite legally mind you, to pull away their support and ruin the company."

"WHAT!"

"Anna, do not get upset and angry, that is not good for you and the baby."

"I am not upset or angry, just shocked.What in the world are you doing?"

"I had been starting to plan everything, but the discussion I had that day with Tan when he and Amanda came to visit you in the hospital kicked it off dramatically.Tan wanted to try and destroy the Lu's immediately.However I convinced him that the better option was to take down Lu Corporation as that impact Lu Jinhu's parents and parents-in-law's finances, undermining there ability to cause issue in the future."

"When we met I laid out all the information I had at the time and with Tan and XF International's help, we started talking to our leading companies, who are partners in numerous projects.It was made clear to them that they had to chose between Lu Corporation or Hou Enterprises and XF International.You can guess who companies were willing to support."

Hou Yi looked at Anna noticed that she was interested in what he had been up to."Over the last three weeks, we have gathered enough support that will literally destroy most of their developments, as people will pull their money and support.That is going to happen this afternoon, when Tan along with at least seven leading companies CEO's will have a joint press conference, announcing that they will not be doing business with any company that now on that signs any deal with Lu Corporation."

"Additionally some of them will be pulling out of all their existing deals with Lu Corporation, but in a way that will not hurt smaller companies, contractors and the staff as existing developments that could continue without their investments could go to completion."

"While I would have loved for it to be immediate I can see their logic and reasoning.Hou Enterprises will be seen not to have anything to do with the decision, as we have projects with all companies that will be involved in this boycott which explain their presence at Hou Enterprises over the last three weeks on the basis that your hospitalization and injuries have limited my ability to travel.."

"The only area of Lu Corporation that will generally be insulated from this will be their Film and Television division.It is the largest, and even XF International's division is a distant second place.In talking to Tan, rather than Hou Enterprises going into that area, we will enter a joint venture with XF International.We have structured the deal that if we cannot agree, an independent third person will make the decision.We spoke to Phillipa, who we both trust, and she has agreed to take that position for us."
