Chapter 191: Chapter 190: Don’t Beat Someone into Retreat into Themselves
Hearing this, Chi Gui looked up with some surprise, "Even your people can’t find them?"
"It’s a bit difficult," Shen Yun replied helplessly. "The other party is very cunning, only contacting those wealthy families in private. Since there are few victims, the news hasn’t spread widely, and it’s been very hard for my people to find out where someone has fallen for this. Moreover, once they swindle the money, they immediately pull out and hide, not the least bit greedy. They only reappear every two or three months which makes investigating even more difficult."
Chi Gui frowned slightly.
Shen Yun didn’t want to dwell on the topic but reminded Chi Gui, "I’ve already sent notices to the major Huaxia companies, but there are some small companies that I don’t even know about, so I can’t do anything there. If you have friends, let them know too."
Shen Yun knew that Chi Gui had met a group of people in Nancheng, some of whom seemed to be from minor wealthy families. This was part of the reason for his reminder.
Chi Gui nodded.
The two chatted for a bit more, and Chi Gui inquired, "How’s the situation with the bids?"
At that, Shen Yun sighed, "The bids submitted so far, especially from the larger companies, are all quite good, but they lack originality. Relying on old methods won’t attract today’s customers. The bidding is a few days away, and most bids haven’t been submitted yet. I’ll see if I can receive any that meet my expectations."
The ones not yet submitted were from medium to small companies as far as Tenggui Group was concerned.
Large companies had well-developed networks and had inquired about Tenggui Group’s needs for the year early on, preparing their bids accordingly. It was the medium and small companies without connections or insider information that did not know what Tenggui Group was looking for and therefore delayed.
Shen Yun didn’t have much hope for this latter group.

After dinner, Shen Yun left.
Chi Gui saw him out and then received a call from Zhou Wei upon returning home.
"Xiao Chi, the date for this year’s international medical conference has been moved to the day after tomorrow. Can you make time for it?" Zhou Wei asked.
The international medical conference was originally scheduled for a month later, right after the national competition.
It was a surprise it had been moved up so much.
Chi Gui was not surprised; such international conferences were prone to unexpected changes, and rescheduling was a common occurrence.
"Yes," Chi Gui replied politely, "thank you for reminding me, I’m already in the Capital City, so I can go directly."
"You’re back in the Capital City?" Zhou Wei was surprised. "Why didn’t you say anything? Are you here to recuperate?"
Chi Gui chuckled, "This time, it’s for the national competition of the Star Shining Cup. You’re so busy, I didn’t want to disturb you."
Zhou Wei: ...
He paused for a while before asking with some uncertainty, "Did you just say... what national competition? Have I mistaken the Star Shining Cup competition? Isn’t it the competition for medical students?"
"You have not mistaken, it’s the same one," Chi Gui said.
Zhou Wei fell silent for a moment and sighed deeply. "Professor Chi, please go easy on them. They’re all Huaxia’s future medical workers. Don’t shatter the kids into becoming reclusive."
Chi Gui: "...I will."
Zhou Wei hung up the phone, full of worries.
He was counting on selecting a few outstanding students from that national competition this year...
-
Fu Family.
Old Sir Fu sat on the sofa, holding a teacup, leisurely sipping his tea.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Fu Si coming down from upstairs. He lifted his eyelids and spoke deliberately, "There’s an international medical conference the day after tomorrow. You will attend as a member of the Fu Family."
