Chapter 157 Difficulty in Making a Decision
When do you plan to confront Meng Ruxian about the truth?
As soon as they drove out of the Binhai Bureau, Zhou Xiaoli eagerly asked Ye Kai a question.
The red Ferrari sports car carried Ye Kai onto the expressway at high speed, continuously overtaking other cars in the traffic. The engine roared like a monster, seemingly brewing a kind of resentment.
"Let's cut to the chase!"
"Now that Yu Mofei has implicated Meng Ruxian, we should contact him as soon as possible, then overwhelm him with overwhelming force and take over his 19% stake!"
Ye Kai decided not to delay and to resolve the problem immediately.
"Where are you going to find two hundred million in funding?"
Zhou Xiaoli naturally did not object to Ye Kai's idea, but she still had concerns about the source of the funds.
Even now, she still doesn't understand how Ye Kai was able to produce the equity registration certificate for Yongkuan Medical, which is worth 2.5 million yuan.
Everyone has their own secrets. Although Zhou Xiaoli and Ye Kai's relationship is unusual, she will not continue to ask until the other party is willing to reveal this secret.
"Just think of me as someone who inherited a large fortune, which I can use anytime."
"Next, I will use a piece of land near Beijing's CBD as collateral to borrow several hundred million yuan from the bank. Part of it will be used to acquire the shares held by Meng Ruxian, and the other part will be used to speculate in the stock market to earn some pocket money and alleviate my tight financial situation."
Ye Kai couldn't explain the source of his assets to her, but he could let Zhou Xiaoli know that he had the ability to do so, and that he had a clear understanding of the existence and use of these assets.
"How large is the piece of land?"
Zhou Xiaoli was somewhat surprised after hearing this. Land near Beijing's CBD is quite valuable, but she didn't know how big the plot Ye Kai was talking about was. Since he said it was worth several hundred million, the area must not be small, at least more than one acre.
"About 1.1 hectares."
Ye Kai answered calmly.
"Yo—"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xiaoli couldn't help but gasp, her hands gripping the steering wheel trembling slightly.
Given the current booming land auction market in Beijing, this piece of land alone is valued at over 10 billion yuan. No wonder Ye Kai didn't seem troubled at all.
Has he hooked up with a rich woman?
Otherwise, how could he possibly have the ability to come up with so many assets?
Miss Zhou was a little puzzled. She couldn't help but glance at Ye Kai out of the corner of her eye and saw that he was leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, seemingly deep in thought.
"That policewoman, Nie Xiaolan, is quite pretty."
Zhou Xiaoli suddenly changed the subject, bringing up Nie Xiaolan, who had been pushed forward by Xing Wenli to serve as the liaison officer for the special task force.
"She's good-looking, but not as pretty as you."
Ye Kai could say such things fluently even without using his brain.
"hypocritical."
Miss Zhou gave a soft hum, but her expression was quite happy.
Inside the reception room of a major client of China Merchants Bank in Beijing.
"I just received the news."
"Yu Mofei was taken away by the Economic Crime Investigation Department."
Meng Ruxian sat on the business sofa, holding a cigar in his hand. He lit it but didn't smoke it; he just held it horizontally under his nose to smell the aroma.
He is 52 years old this year, with gray hair, but he is in very good spirits. He is a regular at the gym, and when he rolls up his business T-shirt, you can see his six-pack abs.
As a businessman with assets exceeding one billion, Meng Ruxian can only come up with about one hundred million in cash at most. If he wants to come up with more cash, he will need to sell off his assets.
While investing in Green Energy Core Power was certainly due to the enthusiastic invitation from Zhou Xiaoli, the youngest daughter of the Zhou family, Meng Ruxian felt that this project could provide him with an opportunity to transcend social classes.
Compared to the Zhou family, whose assets are worth tens of billions, Meng Ruxian can only be considered a small businessman.
To catch up with these established giants, he had to find an opportunity to rise to the top in one step. Green Energy Core Power was such an opportunity, so he almost sold everything he owned and raised about 8000 million yuan to invest in the Green Energy Core Power project.
Looking at it now, the project does indeed have a promising future.
If it weren't for the shortsightedness of Lin Xiaobo, the original leader, who wanted to abscond with the funds, the project's valuation would have been even higher.
Even so, after Ye Kai took over Green Energy Core Power, the company's valuation reached over one billion yuan.
The 19% stake held by Meng Ruxian has more than doubled in value, now worth approximately 200 million yuan.
"Will this fire spread to you?"
The middle-aged woman sitting on the opposite sofa had a good figure. Although she looked somewhat ugly, she was ugly in a distinctive way. With the help of her clothes and hairstyle, she looked like a powerful businesswoman.
This woman, He Li, is a mid-level manager at China Merchants Bank and an old classmate of Meng Ruxian. She was a key figure who helped Meng Ruxian raise funds at a critical moment.
"It's hard to say."
"Yu Mofei is a smart man. He knows what he can say and what he must never say."
"But there's also a problem: if she's facing a more powerful opponent, then betraying me would be an inevitable choice."
Meng Ruxian also sees this issue very clearly.
Whether it's the Zhou family's little princess or the aggressive Ye Kai, they are both more powerful than Meng Ruxian.
Therefore, in the end, Meng Ruxian will likely find it difficult to achieve a satisfactory outcome.
"Otherwise, shouldn't we communicate with the other party promptly and try to reach a settlement?"
The middle-aged woman, He Li, frowned and, after a long pause, offered her advice to Meng Ruxian.
If you can protect your own interests from being harmed, admitting defeat to the other party is not a big deal. A real man can bend and stretch.
At crucial moments, the goal is not to fight to the bitter end and lose everything, but to consider how to gracefully exit while preserving one's own interests.
"It's probably not that easy."
"That kid is no pushover. Once he makes a move, he can skin a person alive."
Thinking about how Ye Kai kicked Chen Song and the others out of the game with a single move, Meng Ruxian now regretted why she had such a brain fart and wanted to control the situation through illegal means.
The project is definitely a good one, but unfortunately, it was all ruined by that scoundrel Lin Xiaobo, to the point that everyone is secretly trying to get the maximum benefit through crooked means.
Now that Ye Kai has caught them red-handed, it's hard to say how he'll deal with them next.
"No matter what, you should back down when necessary."
"Even if it means losing some benefits, I must ensure my own safety; avoiding criminal charges is the bare minimum."
"If you are really sent in, when you come out, everything will belong to someone else."

He Li saw things very clearly and reminded Meng Ruxian once again.
"I see."
Meng Ruxian took a deep sniff of the cigar and made a decision in her heart.
It's just losing money, it's better than being sent to jail for several years.
