Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

Chapter 1577: The Takeover of Lanxin Is Essential

At this moment, T-K Group and Genesis Investment Company were holding a meeting to discuss the takeover of Country Z’s health supplements brands. During the meeting, Genesis Investment Company gave a detailed report on NBJ and Lanxin Company, including their current financial status and overall capabilities.

T-K Group had finalized its control and management over Nanshan, XX, and Mei Shan companies. T-K Group’s products had not yet entered Country Z’s market on a big scale. The Group was making use of this period to take over the sales and distribution channels of those three companies, to cultivate their own brand image.

The conclusion of the discussion was that it was now in T-K Group’s best interests to acquire both NBJ and Lanxin Company, in order to successfully enter Country Z’s market.

Both parties agreed to carry out an all-out offensive strategy.

At the same time, they discussed all the relevant details pertaining to such a strategy.

The two-hour meeting finally ended after both sides came to an agreement.

Chu Jingnan tossed the documents onto the table and loosened his tie. He walked over to the drinks cabinet and poured himself a glass of red wine.

Jenny knocked on the door before walking elegantly into the office. She was holding a folder. “Manager Chu, this is the minutes of the meeting just now.”

Chu Jingnan walked over to the sofa and sat down with his wine in hand. He took over the folder from her and casually flipped through it before closing it again. “Lanxin Company is still refusing to meet with me?”

He sounded rather displeased.

He was a high-level financial investment manager, and even those with real wealth and power did not dare to antagonize him. He was already used to being treated with great respect and deference. Since returning to Country Z, his status had undergone a major shift. Having been under the radar for so long, this sense of superiority felt especially great.

However, the boss behind Lanxin Company had completely disregarded him, repeatedly rejecting his invites. To Chu Jingnan, who had been enjoying a rather smooth-sailing and successful career, this was the first time he tasted defeat.

Jenny shook her head. “Manager Chu, we are going to launch an all-out offensive strategy against NBJ and Lanxin Company very soon. Why do you still insist on meeting the boss behind Lanxin Company at this point?”

T-K Group had already given up on cooperating or merging with Lanxin Company. Not knowing what was good for themselves, that company had ended up angering T-K Group. The Group had already passed down the decree to use whatever means to do a hostile takeover or just completely destroy Lanxin Company.

In this way, there was no longer any need for both parties to meet.

Chu Jingnan said as he drank his red wine, “Country Z has a saying which is that you must know one’s opponent in order to succeed. Be it in battle or business, the biggest mistake would be to not even know who your enemy is.”

Chu Jingnan was a very astute investment manager. Through his interactions with Lanxin Company, he instinctively felt that Lanxin Company was not that simple.

Firstly, the boss behind Lanxin Company. Chu Jingnan had made use of all the resources within T-K Group and Genesis Investment Company but was still unable to find out who the boss was. To be able to keep his identity such a well-hidden secret, that boss must be someone of certain status.

Secondly, he had met Lanxin Company’s professional manager, Yan Shaoqing, as well as general manager, Zheng Yifan. One was deep and unfathomable, while the other was young and capable. They were not your usual ordinary characters.

Thirdly, Lanxin Company’s recipe came from Du Ruo, the granddaughter of the highly-revered Du Shinan. The prestige and influence held by these two in the world of Traditional Chinese Medicine had Chu Jingnan quite worried.

Jenny asked, “So, are we still carrying out the acquisition strategy against Lanxin Company according to plan?”

Jenny fully trusted in Chu Jingnan. In her opinion, he was the most intelligent and farsighted man she had ever met. His every decision and every move had never gone wrong.

“The plan to acquire Lanxin Company is essential now that the all-out offensive strategy is imminent. We cannot delay any longer. Inform T-K Group to have them closely monitor Lanxin Company’s every move. Don’t waste time and effort on that fast-declining NBJ. Focus all their energy on Lanxin Company.”

Chu Jingnan made his decision decisively. When he first accepted this engagement, he had guaranteed the company that it would be successfully accomplished within a year. Even now, he was confident of achieving that goal.

“In that earlier meeting, you expressed your doubts and fears to T-K Group, but they remained indifferent. They are obviously unconcerned about it and your reminder might go unheeded.”

T-K Group was a major enterprise with worldwide acclaim. They had never held Country Z’s health supplements market in high regard. Now that they had successfully acquired Nanshan, XX, and Mei Shan companies, as well as destroyed Ming Yuan Company, their arrogance had risen to new levels. In their view, the health supplements market of Country Z was as good as theirs now.

At the same time, they were not as cooperative toward Genesis Investment Company now.

Chu Jingnan raised his brows slightly. “We are just the third-party advisors and can only do our best for our part. As for what they wish to do, it is their own business.”

Although he was determined to win this battle over Country Z’s health supplements market, he had to prepare a Plan B because of Lanxin Company.

Jenny nodded.

She left after Chu Jingnan instructed her on some other matters.

After Jenny departed, Chu Jingnan stood by the window and gazed at the sprawling city. He couldn’t help thinking of Wen Xinya, who had just gotten engaged a few days before.

Although he didn’t participate in that engagement banquet of the century, he had kept a close watch on all news pertaining to it.

The man engaged to Xinya was someone called Si Yiyan. When Xinya was studying at Lan Feng Institute, Si Yiyan had toured the school grounds in his capacity as an investor. Chu Jingnan had met him then.

He still remembered that time—they had met outside the principal’s office. Si Yiyan’s domineering aura and scornful expression had made him feel as small and subservient as an ant.

He also remembered the dismissal of Jiang Ruoyin in the student union’s office. Si Yiyan had suppressed him on behalf of Wen Xinya, and that was the first time in his life he had lowered his arrogant head to anyone.

It was probably that time when he and Wen Xinya got together!

The big boss behind Capital city’s Jiayuan Club!

Did Wen Xinya choose him because of that reason?

Chu Jingnan clenched his fists in anger, indignation, and jealousy.

Over this year, he had pursued Wen Xinya ardently to no avail. This ignited his natural male instinct to conquer her. Her engagement was not enough to make him give up but instead incited a crazed desire to obtain what he couldn’t have.
