Chapter 1736: Suicide Operation....

“Lingyun Group!”
Hearing these words, the people present could not sit still anymore.
Although they were all office workers, the people in the meeting room were all gold-collar figures.
All of them had achieved financial freedom in Zhonghai.
Hence, they had all heard of the Lingyun Group.
That was a famous company in Zhonghai. It could even be said to be a giant in the semiconductor industry.
But it was exactly this company that was suddenly making things difficult for Tesla. No matter how one looked at it, it was scary.
In their executive team, whether it was Qi Xianzhao or He Yuanyuan, or even Tian Yan, who was in charge of investment, any one of them was not someone to be trifled with.
“What’s going on? We and Lingyun Group have no conflicts of interest. Why is this happening?!” Yang Tiannan asked.
“We don’t know the reason for it yet, but Lingyun Group’s announcement was very intense. It pointed to the brake failure this time and they have caused a huge commotion in the circle. When the market opens tomorrow, our share price might fall.”
With that, the secretary placed an iPad in front of Yang Tiannan.
It was the article published by Lingyun Group.
The meeting room was silent. It was undeniable that the share price would fall.
Lingyun Group’s status in the industry was unshakeable. After publishing an article like this, it was like throwing a huge rock into a lake.
It would definitely cause an uproar. Capitalists voted with their feet. They knew where to put their money.
“It’s not just Lingyun Group that has issued an announcement. There are already more than 20 companies online that have issued condemnation statements at the same time. They’re all targeting this matter,” the person in charge of the public relations department, Wu Juan, said.
Her fingers quickly typed on the computer as she investigated this matter. Then, she said without looking away,
“These companies should have all received investments by the Lingyun Group before. That’s why they came to help so quickly.”
“Damn it!”
” Who the f*ck provoked Lingyun Group?!”
Yang Tiannan threw the iPad to the ground. The anger in his heart was like a volcano that was about to erupt.
The people in the conference room kept quiet out of fear. They did not know what was going on either.
Lingyun Group and Tesla were both top-notch companies. They were doing well, so there was no reason for the former to do such a thing.
This was not logical.
“President Yang, now is not the time to pursue this matter,” said Zhao Fenghua.
“It’s impossible to ask Lingyun Group about this at a time like this. We have to think of a way to resolve the matter at hand.”
“My advice is to bide your time,” Wu Juan said.
“This is just Lingyun Group’s turn. Although it will affect the stock price, it can still rise after the storm passes.”
Yang Tiannan remained silent, seemingly agreeing with Wu Juan.
Then, Wu Juan said,
“I think we should announce the two new core technologies and give the market some confidence. As for the brake failure this time, don’t mention a word of it. We can’t panic. We have to stabilize the situation first.”
“We’ll do as you say.”
That night, Yang Tiannan, Zhao Fenghua, and the other Tesla executives did not go home. They were all focused on dealing with the PR crisis. They worked until past three in the morning before they laid on the table and rested for a while.
The next morning, Lin Yi greeted Li Xianghui and planned to go back to the company to deal with Tesla.
Li Xianghui also took good care of Lin Yi. He said that the case would be closed soon and there was nothing to do when he returned.
He told Lin Yi directly that there was no need to come into office. If there was anything he needed, he would call him.
After sending Ji Qingyan to the office, Lin Yi drove to Lingyun Group.
Then, she went to He Yuanyuan’s office.
He Yuanyuan was dressed like a typical office lady.
She was wearing a white shirt and a gray skirt. She had a pair of flesh-colored stockings and black high heels on her legs. She looked a little pleasing to the eye.
“What brings you here?”
He Yuanyuan said as she ate breakfast.
“I had nothing to do, so I came over to take a look.”
“Wait for me for a moment. I’ll update you about this after my breakfast.”
Lin Yi, “…”
Who the f*ck is the boss!
At this moment, the office door was pushed open and Tian Yan walked in with a few documents in her hand.
Compared to He Yuanyuan, Tian Yan was even more attractive.
Although the two of them were dressed similarly, Tian Yan’s figure was like a powered-up version of He Yuanyuan.
The former was normal, while the latter was quite explosive.
She looked round and curvy no matter where you looked.
“President Lin is here.”
“I had nothing to do, so I came over to take a look.”
“Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean? Why are you not looking at me when Director Tian is here?”
“Your barely padded C cup is nothing to me.”
“F*ck, you ungrateful b*stard.”
Seeing the two of them arguing, Tian Yan smiled happily.
“Alright, stop eating. You’re like a pig,” Lin Yi said.
“How are things going with Tesla?”
“I don’t think we are Tesla’s biggest rival,” He Yuanyuan said as she wiped her mouth.
“What do you mean?”
“Because their public relations department didn’t mention anything about the brakes failing. Instead, they released two new technologies. I’m a little puzzled. How did they come up with such a stupid plan?”
Tian Yan also laughed. “President He and I both think that Tesla’s biggest enemy is their public relations department.”
“Are you suggesting that this would be like inviting a wolf into the house?”
“Exactly,” He Yuanyuan said.
“Now it’s just us and some of the enterprises we’ve invested in firing away online. Well, now they’ve released new technology, which is essentially stepping on the tails of domestic new energy vehicle companies. This time, we don’t need to stir them up; those new energy car companies will take action themselves.”
Then, Tian Yan added,
“I just called a few friends who are executives at major domestic electric car companies. They’ve all noticed Tesla’s technology announcement and have started preparing their response strategies. I expect we’ll see news about it online very soon.”
Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh silently.
This public relations move was beautifully executed.
“We lit the firecracker. I didn’t expect Tesla to set off fireworks themselves. Haha…”
He Yuanyuan smiled happily. “With this level of public relations, Tesla won’t have to worry about dying.”
Lin Yi had the same feeling. Even He Yuanyuan and Tian Yan could tell what was going on. It was interesting that their PR department was still so smug.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
At this moment, there was a knock on He Yuanyuan’s office door and her secretary walked in.
“President Lin, Director He, Director Tian.”
He Yuanyuan nodded. “What’s wrong?”
“Huanghai Group in Shianggang just issued an announcement. They seem to be giving Tesla another platform. They said that Tesla’s technology is advanced and worth researching.”
