I Was Stuck on the Same Day For a Thousand Years - Chapter 272
Chapter 272: The Art of Language
Hu Xilin and Qian Ruiling were both “rich second generation”.
More than 20 years ago, Hu Xilin’s father, Hu Daguo, was a township entrepreneur in Da’an Town, Yulin County, a suburb of Donghai City. He owned four factories, large and small, under his name.
Qian Ruiling’s father, Qian Dejun, was a township entrepreneur in Qingyuan Town, Yulin County, with three factories under his name.
They all had a net worth of tens of millions.
Hu Daguo and Qian Dejun met through business. They knew each other in the early 1990s. They often moved around and their relationship became better and better.
At the end of the last century, Hu Xilin was twenty-four years old.
Qian Ruiling was twenty-one years old.
With the help of their parents, the two met on a blind date and got married. Although it was an arranged marriage, the two knew each other and the marriage went smoothly.
When the two got married, the two families agreed that each family would provide a factory and five million in cash…
Hu Daguo took out the “Zhenyang Hardware Factory” under his name, and Qian Dejun took out the “Wangfa Hardware Factory” under his name.
After the two got married, the two factories came into the name of the couple, and then they were integrated and registered as “Xirui Manufacturing Co., Ltd.”!
The word “Xirui” was from the character of Hu Xilin and Qian Ruiling’s names combined.
This was the origin of Xirui Electronics.
After the new century, both Hu Daguo and Qian Dejun were somewhat behind the times. Their old business thinking and lack of adventurous spirit prevented their businesses from becoming bigger and stronger.
But their offsprings, Hu Xilin and Qian Ruiling, started to do business!
Xirui Electronics experienced financing, mergers and acquisitions – radical development…
Until today, although Xirui Electronics insisted on not being listed, yet it still had a valuation of more than 5 billion.
Hu Xilin’s net worth of more than 3 billion was basically from Xirui Electronics’ shares.
Although the share properties were all in Hu Xilin’s name, mainly to facilitate business operations, they were all in fact joint property of the husband and wife, including real estate.
Therefore, in the event of divorce, generally speaking, the joint property of the husband and wife would be divided 50-50.
But because she signed a prenuptial agreement, and should Qian Ruiling would be caught… However, she would not necessarily pack up and leave the house.
If this matter broke out and the two parties fell out, they would definitely go to court!
And because of the prenuptial agreement, when the court decided this case, it would definitely let Hu Xilin take most of the property.
Even if Qian Ruiling contributed a lot to the company over the years, she could only take away a small portion!
Lei Cheng thought a lot, and the more he thought about it, the more he understood why Wu Chen didn’t care and wanted to give the video to Hu Xilin.
Aren’t you afraid of making Hu Xilin suspicious? Even if he is very angry about his wife’s cheating, he must be suspicious of Wu Chen.
Why did he take the video? Why is he investigating his wife?
Wu Chen was really not afraid.
Because the benefits this video could bring to Hu Xilin will outweighed everything!
It already felt like a “gift”!
Even if it had ulterior motives, this gift was big enough to easily grant small favors.
Not only was it not too much, but it’s nothing!
The more Lei Cheng thought about it, the more he felt… awesome!
Wu Chen was awesome!
This thing already gave him a very magical feeling. Although Wu Chen only shot a video, what he said was… The impact it could have, or the consequences and effects were awesome!
What’s even more awesome was that Wu Chen had to know a lot of things first.
He had to know the prenuptial agreement, he had to know Qian Ruiling’s cheating, and he had to know what Qian Ruiling’s schedule.
And Ding Ruilong looked for Lei Cheng, then looked for Lei You.
Lei You looked for Lei Cheng and Hu Xilin, and Hu Xilin called Lei Cheng.
All of this happened during the day! Everything related to it happened today!
Lei Cheng called Wu Chen at noon. It had only been five or six hours now…
That’s it?
Just take the video and bring it over?
Lei Cheng even felt a chill in his body.
Wu Chen gave him a feeling that was difficult to explain clearly in one or two sentences – very scary!
“Brother, you…” Lei Cheng said.
He thought for a long time before speaking, but stopped suddenly because the more he wanted to ask, the less he knew how to ask.
From what angle should I start asking?
The information contained in this matter is too complicated!
“Brother Lei,” Wu Chen said with a smile. He didn’t give Lei Cheng any complicated explanation. There was no need. Instead, he said, “About what you plan about doing to your older brother, I think… we can let Hu Xilin know about it.”
“Huh?” Lei Cheng was stunned again.
Subconsciously, he felt that he had heard wrongly.
How can you tell Hu Xilin about this?
If the info is leaked, it will be troublesome!
The most troublesome thing now was not Lei You, but Lei Cheng’s eccentric father – Lei Zhenghui!
So for Lei Cheng to take action, Lei You must be forced into a desperate situation. In this way, his father Lei Zhenghui must make another choice!
With only these two sons, if Lei You died, Lei Zhenghui would have no choice but to turn to Lei Cheng!
The info must not be leaked in advance, otherwise, Lei Zhenghui would first consider how to help Lei You eliminate the trouble, rather than turning to Lei Cheng.
“You can let him know.” Wu Chen smiled at Lei Cheng, “Hu Xilin can be your help. He has cooperated with Hongfa for more than ten years… He can be the first external force to turn to you. As a supplier, What do you think will happen if he only recognizes you? What will your old man think?”
Lei Cheng looked at Wu Chen blankly.
He no longer knew what Wu Chen was thinking, so why… Why should Hu Xilin deserve such trust? Why would Hu Xilin do the opposite?
This was not a favor, it was asking Hu Xilin to take sides!
“Zhu Haobo belongs to Lei You, and he is now sleeping with Hu Xilin’s wife…” Wu Chen said again.
“I know, but if a fight breaks out, Lei You will definitely deal with Zhu Haobo. There is no way he won’t give Hu Xilin face. It’s not worth offending Hu Xilin for Zhu Haobo…” Lei Cheng interrupted Wu Chen.
“That’s just one of them.” Wu Chen said, “Second, Hu Xilin himself also cheated.”
Lei Cheng fell silent for a moment.
Looking at Wu Chen, Lei Cheng reacted and realized what he meant!
“Threaten Hu Xilin?” Lei Cheng’s eyes widened and he asked in a low voice.
If the evidence of Hu Xilin’s cheating was given to Qian Ruiling, it would be hard to say who would pack up and leave the house. It would all depend on who could produce the evidence.
But Wu Chen knew that both parties were cheating on each other.
“No, no, no, it’s not a threat.” Wu Chen smiled at Lei Cheng, “Brother Lei, you have to understand… the art of language!
“The same thing, if you say it in a different way, the feeling as well as the effect that can be brought is different… For example, knowing a person, wanting to make friends with a person, and wanting to motivate him to take the initiative… How you express it is important!”
Lei Cheng looked at Wu Chen. Listening to Wu Chen, there was a slight chill in his body again.
Because he thought of himself and Wu Chen.
The process of the two getting to know each other and the relationship after the conversation, that kind of change, Lei Cheng found it incredible up to this day!
But Lei Cheng clearly knew Wu Chen’s purpose, but he was still willing to do it.
It’s really scary!
“Brother Lei…” Wu Chen began to explain some situations to Lei Cheng again. He had to let Lei Cheng know what he could say, what he couldn’t say, and how to say it once Hu Xilin arrived.
Wu Chen seemed to be helping Lei Cheng and continuing to win over Lei Cheng’s network.
This was indeed the case.
But it’s not just that!
Wu Chen would also let Hu Xilin become his network and helper!
Not long after…
The door in the lobby opened.
A tall, thin, and balding middle-aged man wearing a gray suit hurriedly entered.
“Boss Hu is here.” Tao Manying, who was talking to Zhuang Xiaodie, stood up and greeted the visitor, who was none other than Hu Xilin.
“Miss Tao is here, where is Lao Lei?” Hu Xilin asked Tao Manying in a familiar tone.
“He’s waiting for you in the study,” Tao Manying said with a smile.
“Okay, Miss Tao. I know you’re busy,” Hu Xilin said in a hurry and walked through the living room and hurried upstairs.
