Chapter 1613: In A Completely Passive Position

The WR project that the Gu and Fang Corporation jointly participated in was ultimately settled by Old Master Gu. In the end, it was nothing more than finding someone to take the blame for this incident. However, this person would definitely not be a member of the Gu family, so they could only find someone from the upper echelons of the Gu corporation who had come into contact with this case.

The Gu Corporation could be considered to have avoided this incident. However, even so, the reputation of the Gu Corporation in the industry was still severely affected. The stock market had been in a state of decline for the past few days, causing the shareholders to lose confidence in the stock of the Gu Corporation. Even if they had to suffer a loss, they withdrew their shares from the Gu Corporation.

In the office of the Chairman of the Gu Corporation, Old Master Gu, who had long retired to behind the scenes, had returned to the Gu Corporation to take charge. It was really because Gu Zhilin’s performance after encountering a major incident was too disappointing. If Old Master Gu did not appear this time, then the shareholders and employees of the Gu Corporation would be too disappointed with the Gu family.

At this time, in the office, Gu Zhilin sat across Grandfather Gu with an ugly expression. At the same time, there were several higher-ups of other companies standing behind him. There were also a few shareholders sitting on a sofa not far away.

“We’ve already investigated. The legal person of Glory World is a person called Frank. We’ve also investigated this person. Although he’s a legal person of Glory World, he’s not the real boss of the company. In other words, there’s someone else who’s in control of Glory World, but we can’t find out who this person is,” Gu Zhilin said in a deep voice. During this period of time, he was mentally and physically tormented. He also knew that the entire family and the entire company had a very deep impression of him. Even Old Master Gu’s eyes were no longer looking at him amicably. This feeling of being denied was really uncomfortable.

Hearing Gu Zhilin’s words, everyone present had solemn expressions.

“It seems that this time, Glory World is seriously making things difficult for our Gu Corporation. Recently, the stock of the Gu Corporation has been constantly declining, causing the remaining shareholders to sell off their stocks one after another. However, as far as I know, while the shareholders are selling their stocks, there are people on the other side who are buying, and all of them are buying at low prices,” one of the Gu Corporation’s shareholders said with a solemn expression, “I did some research and found out that these stocks were actually bought back in the name of Glory World’s legal person, Frank.”

Hearing the shareholder’s words, Old Master Gu glared at Gu Zhilin with cold eyes. “How could you not know such an important matter!”

Gu Zhilin was startled, and then he glared at the talkative shareholder with an unhappy expression. He then lowered his head, not daring to look at Old Master Gu’s face.

He had been in a lot of trouble recently. How could he have the time to care about the issue of the shareholders selling off their shares, and even less about who had taken over the scattered shares.

Now that he heard that the one who had taken over the scattered shares was actually Glory World, and that Glory World was also the company that had taken over the WR project. He immediately connected the dots, causing Gu Zhilin to immediately be terrified.

Could it be that it was Glory World that had caused the decline of the Gu Corporation’s shares and the problems with the project? Currently, the value of Gu Corporation’s stocks have fallen to an all-time low. The shareholders, to protect their interests, have chosen to sell their stocks at low prices, which are then bought by Glory World. Is Glory World taking the opportunity to become a shareholder of Gu Corporation?

Oh my god…

Gu Zhilin finally understood the whole story, and his face turned pale. This was clearly someone punishing the Gu Corporation, teaching them a lesson.

“Who is it! Who is the boss behind Glory World?!” Gu Zhilin could no longer keep his cool. He had just become the head of the Gu family not long ago, and he had just taken over the Gu Corporation. Why did someone want to make things difficult for him and go against him?!

However, he did not even know who was going against him, and he was in a completely passive position.
