Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend-Chapter 563 - : Didn’t Expect That, I Was Prepared

Chapter 563: Chapter 563: Didn’t Expect That, I Was Prepared

Jiang Xu glanced at the international news.

Almost all of it was news criticizing and accusing his company.

Various attacks and curses were flying all over the sky.

As if dark clouds pressed down on the city, angry waves surging forth.

It created the illusion that the world was about to collapse.

Ally called.

“Boss… Just a few hours ago, a total of one hundred and twenty-two suppliers issued statements to us.

Effective immediately, they are stopping all supply of raw materials, all cooperation.

And they’ve indicated that they won’t be paying any penalties for breach of contract due to our involvement.”

Jiang Xu chuckled coldly, “How many are domestic companies?”

Ally: “Over ninety percent of them are.”

“As expected,” Jiang Xu clicked his tongue: “The first ones to hand over a knife are often your own people.”

Since Jiang Xu had anticipated this situation long ago, he was not at all flustered.

He simply inquired about the mood of the company’s internal staff.

That was the key point.

Ally said, “From what I see in the messages from several major employee groups in the company, everyone’s mood is still very stable.

It doesn’t seem like anyone is proposing to resign or anything.”

“Mhm,” Jiang Xu said evenly: “Proceed with normal work, and find replacement companies as soon as possible.”

The one affected the most was their own chip factory.

Although he has always been seeking to localize all raw materials and components.

But that too requires time.

The current progress of localization is only about sixty percent.

The rest still relies on imports.

Simply put, Jiang Xu had prematurely, many years ahead, experienced the situation Hua Wei faced when it was sanctioned.

It was as if he had been placed on a deserted island surrounded by the sea. Shortages of food, exposed to the wind, sun, and rain, facing various predicaments.

Maybe a big wave would come over any time and submerge the whole island.

The only consolation was that the intensity of the attacks he was facing was not as terrifying as what Hua Wei had to face initially.

Of course, if not handled properly, there could also be major problems.

Jiang Xu instructed Ally to come to the office early, as he would also go later. Then he called Lu Chao.

This guy had made no less than fifty calls from last night till now.

The phone connected.

“Damn it, when will you change this bad habit of setting your phone to silent at night!”

Complaining as soon as the call was answered: “Do you know how this causes delays?

Are you afraid that if you’re exchanging with your fiancee at night, a sudden call might scare you back in?”

The fact that this guy could still tease Jiang Xu indicated that the pressure he was facing was not as great as imagined.

Get lost,” Jiang Xu cursed: “How long can our inventory last now?”

Since founding the chip factory, Jiang Xu had learned from Hua Wei’s previous predicament of having no chips available.

Therefore, especially for those imports needed, he always purchased them well in advance.

For instance, if he needed ten thousand pounds, he’d buy a hundred thousand pounds, storing the rest as reserves.

Even if it meant facing inventory pressure, it was a sacrifice he was willing to make.

“Our current raw materials can last about half a year,” Lu Chao snorted:

“I really didn’t expect you to be so badass.

Regardless of whether you can survive the encirclement and blockade of those top-tier big companies or not, you’ve already made a deep mark in the history of business.”

“Heh,” Jiang Xu chuckled lightly: “I can’t possibly lose, and I don’t just want to survive. I want to return it a thousandfold!”

Lu Chao couldn’t help but shudder.

Even through the phone, he could feel the immense power contained in Jiang Xu’s words.

It was the kind of ferocity that says, “If you chop off one of my legs, I’ll fight to the death to take a chunk out of your flesh.”

Hehehe,” Lu Chao also started to laugh, “Do you know why I chose to collaborate with you?

The main reason is that although you seem gentle on the surface, you have a relentless spirit within.

Don’t worry, I can handle the current difficulties faced by the factory. I’ll reach

out to you only if it becomes absolutely unmanageable.”

Lu Chao’s words eased Jiang Xu’s mind considerably.

Aside from average looks and physique, this guy had everything else top-notch.

An Nuonuo had woken up as well.

Before even washing up, she started to make breakfast.

At a time like this, she needed to take good care of Jiang Xu in every possible way so that he wouldn’t exhaust his mind on any trivial matters.

Instead, he could focus all his energy on resolving this crisis.

While drinking the coffee brewed by An Nuonuo, Jiang Xu browsed through the domestic news.

The majority of it was filled with attacks, accusations, and curses aimed at him.

When Jiang Xu was powerful, those rats and cockroaches naturally hid in the dark, dingy corners of the sewers.

But the moment he showed signs of decline, or when a foe deemed stronger than himself appeared in their eyes, they would all fall upon him with kicks and blows.

Some accused him of affecting many companies’ foreign transactions.

Others said he was tarnishing the nation’s reputation.

There were even claims that he was a criminal who should be arrested with all his assets confiscated.

And then there were the absurd ones calling for all his cash to be split among everyone.

Of course, there was also a group of diehard fans who unwaveringly stood behind him, fighting against these detractors on the internet.

Overall, the situation was very serious, but it had not reached a life-or-death threshold.

Breakfast was served in front of Jiang Xu.

Beef noodles with soy milk.

Brother, you eat first. I’ll go brush my teeth.”

“Mhm.”

After finishing breakfast, An Nuonuo completed her washing up.

She had even changed into a black dress and high heels with her lustrous black hair neatly pinned up.

Her face was touched with light makeup.

Compared to her usual sweet demeanor, a CEO’s presence now masked it, changing her aura entirely.

Actually, An Nuonuo was not used to dressing up this way.

But she knew Jiang Xu didn’t need a sweet girl at his side right now.

What he needed was a partner who could command authority and provide a feeling of security for those below her.

Jiang Xu naturally understood the earnest effort behind An Nuonuo’s actions.

He didn’t express any thanks.

Their relationship didn’t require it.

“Let’s go, to the company.”

On the way, An Nuonuo said, “When the stock market opens at 930 today, our companies’ stock prices might get affected, maybe even hit the limit down right?”

“Mhm,” Jiang Xu nodded, “Listing the company is like a double-edged sword.

It’s bound to be affected in times of crisis.

But there’s no need to be too worried, after all, our companies are performing very well and they’re not tech firms.

The stock prices might plummet initially, but they will rise again later.”

Soon, the two arrived at the company.

Jiang Xu held An Nuonuo’s hand.

As they entered the company, the room erupted with warm applause and exclamations!
