The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot

Chapter 58: 056 You can’t afford to mess with Boss Ying

Stocks?

Upon hearing these two words, Jiang Moyuan suppressed his impatience, “What’s wrong with the company’s stock?”

The secretary wiped off sweat, “I don’t know why, but the company’s stock has been falling, and it has already dropped by five points!”

A five-point drop in stock is a decrease of 5%.

If someone held 50 million shares of Jiang Corporation’s stock, they would lose 2.5 million.

Jiang Moyuan’s expression changed in an instant, “Get the financial advisor over here immediately.”

The secretary hurried off.

Five minutes later, he returned with the financial advisor.

Carrying his computer, the financial advisor bowed to Jiang Moyuan, “CEO Jiang.”

“Why are the stocks falling so fast?” Jiang Moyuan was exuding a chilling aura, “This morning, they were still perfectly normal.”

“I’m sorry, CEO Jiang, I’ve just noticed the unusual movements in the stock too,” the financial advisor said, sweating profusely, “Because the other party acted too quickly, we didn’t even know when they had acquired a large amount of the company’s stock and then sold it all at the same time.”

“As a result, the stock has been continuously falling, and the company is suffering heavy losses.”

Jiang Moyuan’s expression was ice-cold, “I don’t want to hear the reasons, I just want to know how long it will take to resolve this.”

“This…” the financial advisor was clearly troubled, “The other party is buying up shares from the shareholders at high prices and selling them at extremely low prices, unless they stop purchasing them.”

Jiang Corporation’s shareholders wouldn’t sell their stock casually, but regular investors were different, they didn’t care about the life or death of Jiang Corporation, as long as they could make money.

The secretary was shocked, “Doing this would cause them to lose a lot of money too.”

It was a method that hurt others as well as oneself, what were they plotting?

Jiang Moyuan’s lips were tightly pressed together, and the air around him grew denser, “Who made the move?”

“We can’t find out at all,” the financial advisor said as he wiped off sweat, “We can only trace the sale of the stock to O region, the rest is completely unclear.”

To be able to cause Jiang Corporation’s stock to plummet so dramatically in just a few hours, even the first wealthy family of the Imperial Capital couldn’t do it.

And in O region, there are only a handful of financial consortiums that could completely surpass the first wealthy family of the Imperial Capital.

Why would the O region’s financial consortiums suddenly target Jiang Corporation?

Jiang Moyuan was silent, veins throbbing on his forehead, obviously extremely angry.

If it really was a financial consortium from O region, then they could easily bankrupt Jiang Corporation.

Why?

The secretary and the financial advisor didn’t dare to speak, standing aside with cold sweat.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

The secretary stepped forward and saw, “Third Master, Miss Luwei’s call.”

But Jiang Moyuan didn’t answer, he stood up and entered his office with a cold face, “Hang up for now, say I’m busy, notify the shareholders, and proceed with the meeting.”

Jiang Corporation was Old Master Jiang’s lifetime effort; he had to minimize the losses.

**

Ying Luwei, waiting for her flight at Imperial Capital Airport, stared at her phone, stunned, struggling to regain her composure.

This was the first time Jiang Moyuan had hung up on her. In the past, even when he was in a meeting, Jiang Moyuan always put her first.

What’s going on?

Could it be that she really believed what the internet was saying, that everything was a performance directed by herself?

Fortunately, at this moment, the secretary’s WeChat message came through.

[Miss Luwei, please don’t worry. The company has encountered a major crisis, and Third Master is extremely busy. Please forgive him.]

Seeing this message, Ying Luwei let out a sigh of relief.

She looked up, her eyes brimming with tears as she asked her agent, “What did you say on your side?”

“The company has decided to let an eighteenth-tier singer take the fall for you,” the agent’s face finally lightened a bit, “You should stay put for the next few days, wait for my signal before posting on Weibo.”

To prevent the leak of chat records, he had personally visited the company.

All subsequent dealings were also done face-to-face, with no online transactions, taken to the extreme of caution.

The eighteenth-tier singer was not very famous, so this move would garner her attention, and she didn’t care whether it brought fame or infamy, it was a win-win.

Ying Luwei felt completely reassured, she smoothed her hair and smiled, “Then compensate her a bit more, remember to find a place without surveillance to do it privately.”

She didn’t believe that Ying Zijin could fabricate surveillance out of thin air.

An eighteenth-tier singer was lucky to take the hit for her.

**

That evening, Ying Zijin returned to the Zhong Family.

Zhong Zhiwan had already come back early. Seeing the girl enter, his already cold demeanor grew even chillier.

He glanced at her only once, then averted his gaze.

Ying Zijin didn’t bother with him and went straight upstairs.

Zhong Zhiwan watched the girl’s retreating figure, his gaze growing sharper and somewhat inquisitive.

Old Master Zhong’s single Weibo post had shocked the entire Zhong Family.

Thankfully, there were no further development, and those social media accounts were indeed spreading rumors.

Otherwise, wouldn’t the Zhong Family be dragged into unnecessary trouble?

Zhong Zhiwan pursed her lips, suppressed the unpleasantness and doubts in her heart, and focused her attention on studying.

After all, she was the top student of her grade, the young miss of the Zhong Family.

Ying Zijin had been kicked out of the Elite Class, and her grades were at the bottom.

There was simply no comparison between them, and she shouldn’t be so concerned.

After all, Elder Zhong, no matter how confused he might be, should know what matters more.

Upstairs.

In the study.

Old Master Zhong was happily chatting with netizens on Weibo.

Fully revitalized in both body and spirit, he gave the girl a thumbs-up: “Zijin, impressive, even I would need a few days to get in touch with West Wind Law Firm, but you managed it in the blink of an eye.”

“You sued them well, letting them bully my granddaughter, shameless, every one of them.”

Old Master Zhong was filled with righteous indignation, as if ready to grab weapons and join the fray.

Ying Zijin shook her head slightly, a trace of helplessness in her eyes which also relaxed a bit, adding a touch of languor.

She stepped forward and placed a box of pastries on the table: “Grandpa, for you, one piece per day.”

“Did you make these?” Old Master Zhong was delighted, instantly praising, “My granddaughter is truly amazing.”

Ying Zijin didn’t speak, stood behind him, and kneaded a few points on his shoulders.

“Zijin, you have Weibo and you didn’t tell Grandpa?” Old Master Zhong was actually quite unhappy, “I have two hundred thousand followers on Weibo, I could have helped you draw traffic. Come on, let’s follow each other.”

Ying Zijin: “…”

She had to admit that for someone who had just started using 21st-century technology, no elder was more up-to-speed than him.

She turned her head and saw Old Master Zhong’s Weibo, discovering that he was also a self-media video blogger.

Pretty impressive.

Old Master Zhong continued: “I just saw that you’ve gained a lot of casual followers this time, and they’re all fans of your looks. Do you think you should post a photo to show them?”

“Grandpa,” Ying Zijin increased the strength of her massage, unhurriedly, “I am not a celebrity.”

She was just very interested in new technologies, simply for the purpose of retirement.

“That’s true, too many followers isn’t good either.” Old Master Zhong nodded in agreement, “I’ve already talked to Old Man Fu, told him to make his grandson behave and not to target you.”

Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow: “Target me?”

She took out her phone and saw the message Fu Yunshen sent after they parted, only then understanding what he was talking about.

[By the way, kid, your grandpa told my grandpa the other day that I have unscrupulous intentions toward you, and I was… quite innocently implicated.]

[I swear, brother has absolutely no such beastly thoughts.]

Ying Zijin lowered her gaze and replied with one word.

[Hmm.]

After thinking it over, she sent four more words.

[Thank you, Brother.]

Then, after another thought, she recalled those four words.

Instant recall.

However, just as she recalled them, the other side immediately sent another message.

[Ah, I saw it, don’t retract it next time, you can say it in front of brother, no need to be shy.]

Ying Zijin exited WeChat without expression and stuffed the phone back into her pocket.

Morals.

Truly spoiled.

**

The third day.

The online storm gradually subsided, and the onlookers dispersed.

And the marketing accounts that had yet to receive a lawyer’s letter were jumping up again, each one more arrogant than the last.

[I told you she was just pretending, she doesn’t have the energy to sue, and you didn’t believe me.]

[She put up quite the show, even specifically calling out West Wind Law Firm, but it’s a pity it was all for show. I’m dying of laughter.]

[Sue me, weren’t you going to sue? Why haven’t I received a lawyer’s letter yet? Sorry, but I’ll dare to do it again next time.]

Watching these marketing accounts on Weibo, a girl sitting in front of a computer breathed a sigh of relief, her heart still fluttering.

It was good that she wasn’t being sued; otherwise, she would’ve lost her scholarship this semester.

What’s more, she was studying law, and if she had a record, wouldn’t all her studies be in vain?

Indeed, Ying Zijin was just talking big with no real ability.

She knew that when ordinary people faced such situations, they didn’t know how to use the law to fight back, that’s why she dared to fabricate rumors and slander without fear.

The girl was smug as she opened the @Ying Luwei Official Fan Club Weibo account and started on her new day’s task of voting and increasing traffic and data for Ying Luwei.

And just then, West Wind Law Firm, which had been silent for several days, suddenly posted a Weibo.
