I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3715: Chapter 3706: The More Prominent the Tree, the More it Attracts the Wind

"Recently, besides the e-commerce conference we have here, there’s another local internal event."

Xiao Bing said:

"I heard the participants are some local internet and semiconductor companies, it seems they’re preparing to unite and report to the leaders about the Lingyun Group issue. We’re just looking into it."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi’s expression remained exceptionally calm.

"Who’s the ringleader of this event?"

"Sun Shengyao, the boss of Shitong Electronics, also the largest semiconductor company here." Xiao Bing said:

"In terms of scale, it surely can’t compare to the Lingyun Group, but their business volume isn’t small either. If you exclude Lingyun Group, they would count as a first-tier company. I’ve heard they’ve made a lot of breakthroughs in technology in recent years, striving steadily."

"I know about Shitong Electronics."

Even if Lin Yi is a hands-off boss, he knows some competitors in the industry.

This company called Shitong Electronics indeed has some influence in the industry.

"Are they only communicating with local companies?"

"Normally, it’s only local companies, since it’s their internal event, but thanks to this e-commerce conference, many non-local semiconductor companies have joined in. Now they’re discussing how to report this to the higher-ups. In short, the situation is rather unfavorable for the Lingyun Group."

"Have you investigated what relationship Sun Shengyao from Shitong Electronics has with the Chen family?"

"Hm?"

The two of them looked at Lin Yi.

"Chen family? Which Chen family?"

"The person in charge of Dragon Eagle is Chen Zhengnan, it’s their family." Lin Yi said:

"Currently, the pressure within the country is so high, mostly because they’ve stirred things up."

"Ah?"

This news surprised the two women, "They actually play behind-the-back stabbing like this."

"The Chen family is opposed to the Lu family, and I’m Elder Lu’s person. Now that there’s a chance to suppress me, they naturally won’t let it slip by."

"Normally, considering Lingyun Group’s status domestically, typically no company would dare have any other thoughts. Even if they did, they wouldn’t have the guts, I guess there’s backing from the Chen family behind them, otherwise they wouldn’t have the courage."

"That’s beside the point, the main concern is how to resolve this issue." Luo Qi said:

"But from a logical standpoint, what they’re doing is justified because the Lingyun Group has squeezed their survival space. Even bystanders might have an issue with Lingyun Group, whatever we do, we lack legitimacy."

Xiao Bing nodded, agreeing with this.

"Feels like a higher level of strategy, everyone’s cards are on the table, and we’re left without any options."

"We may be out of options, but that doesn’t mean Lin Bro isn’t." Luo Qi looked at Lin Yi and said:

"Lin Bro, now is the time for a showdown. If Lingyun Group suffers, it would mean the Guardian Brigade loses face. This matter’s impact might be greater than expected; even if we have to fake it till we make it, we can’t let the Chen family succeed."

"I’ve already thought of a solution, relieving the domestic pressure isn’t the issue."

Lin Yi said:

"I’m giving you two a task, go check on the guy named Sun Shengyao and see if he has any relationship with the Chen family."

"It’s best if there’s a connection, but if not, it means there’s potentially another enemy emerging, one with considerable influence." Luo Qi said.

"You’re right, so this needs urgent investigation."

"Besides this matter, what else do we need to do?" Xiao Bing asked:

"Does Lingyun Group need our help? Don’t hesitate to ask us."

"There’s no way we’d hesitate to ask, but we don’t need you for now."

"How about we join forces to issue a statement supporting Lingyun Group?"

"Don’t do that, it would be like putting Lingyun Group on the grill."

"What do you mean, even though we’re different industries, we wouldn’t cause trouble either."

"It would be obvious banding together, which is frowned upon."

Lin Yi looked at the two of them, his gaze deep.

"The bigger the tree, the more it attracts the wind. When you inflate to a certain degree, it’s not a good thing."

"I understand what Lin Bro means." Luo Qi said:

"Some things can be done quietly in the dark, but when brought to light, it’s not favorable."

"That’s about right, your current task is to investigate Sun Shengyao and determine which side he’s on."

Luo Qi laughed.

"Lin Bro, if he’s on neither side, just creating his own event, how should we handle it?"

"Then he’s not far from death, no need for Lin Bro to act, with our Xiao family’s ability we can crush him." Xiao Bing said:

"But the odds of that are nearly zero, even if he’s daring and reckless, his partners won’t act foolishly with him. They surely have some information and think there’s potential profit here, which is why they’re so keen."

After pausing, Xiao Bing continued:

"Anyway, besides the Chen family, it hardly could be anyone else, Sun Shengyao doesn’t have that much influence."

"Let’s get working, aim to resolve this quickly." Luo Qi said.

"There’s no rush this very moment; Lin Bro is here, let’s have a good time tonight."

Xiao Bing nudged Lin Yi with her elbow.

"Lin Bro, it’s e-commerce conference time, lots of internet celeb models are here, don’t just stay around, let me take you out for fun."

"I have things to do, came with the boss, can’t leave now."

The two women turned back in unison.

"Lin Bro, which one is your boss?"

Lin Yi nodded his chin, eyes directed at Chen Yuying, "The one in the black dress."

"Great figure, and quite a perky butt, nice shape." Luo Qi said with a smile: "Home run?"

"Can’t you two think of something normal?" Lin Yi said in a laughing and crying manner:

"It’s a normal coworker relationship, not what you’re thinking."

"True, though it looks sizable, a part is just pushed up, probably only a C, which doesn’t meet Lin Bro’s standards." Xiao Bing said:

"How about I arrange a driver for her and you come with us."

"That won’t work, love the job, love the responsibility. You go have fun first, I’ll come find you after."

"It’s boring playing alone, we’ll stay and wait for you."

Lin Yi checked his watch, "The banquet will be wrapping up shortly, you can go wait for me outside."

"Okay, and we’ll arrange the investigation while we’re at it. By the time we’re done, you’ll probably be through with work too."

Lin Yi nodded, "Alright."

After discussing the follow-up matters, the two women quietly left.

Lin Yi continued eating, and after a while, Chen Yuying walked over, smiling as she said:

"You really never lack for followers wherever you go."
