The Kang City Business Alliance held a massive fifty-percent share of the pharmaceutical market, so they were naturally even more excited about Master Chen Guo's arrival.
"The four of us should personally go and welco Master Chen that day!"
"Exactly. Although Master Chen isn't as renowned as the War God King, the help he could provide our Kang City Business Alliance would still be imnse. If we can win his favor, our position in Jingnan Prefecture will be secure, and we'll no longer be stuck in this small Kang City!"
The four chairn of the Kang City Business Alliance showed great enthusiasm for Master Chen Guo's arrival. They were thrilled because the benefits he could bring were so great they even surpassed the value of the technology they had previously snatched from Yang Qi's company. They resolved to invite Master Chen Guo, no matter the cost.
Thanks to a deliberate promotional campaign by Yanbo dia Group, Master Chen Guo's visit to Kang City had beco the biggest news in town. Countless people had wanted Master Chen to treat them in the past, but he was famously elusive. This ti, however, presented a real opportunity.
"Ah, if only Master Chen Guo could endorse our dicine!"
anwhile, inside Qifei Group, the atmosphere was tense. The date for the new product launch was fast approaching, but not only had they failed to find a suitable spokesperson, the dia was also refusing to publish their advertisents. To make matters worse, news of Master Chen Guo's visit to Kang City was everywhere, drowning out all their efforts.
Li Qingyan held her head in her hands, sinking into despair. She had tried everything she could think of, but she was a stranger in a strange land with very few connections and was powerless to solve any of their problems. If this were Eagle Country, she would have had options, but now she was forced to recognize her limitations. If the promotional campaign failed, the Jingzhou Ye Family might terminate their contract, and all future collaborations would have to be reconsidered. After all, they couldn't even handle a simple task like this. Their products would pile up, funds would run dry, and the entire company would collapse. She felt she had let down Ye Fei and betrayed the mysterious boss's trust.
"It's all Yang Qi's fault for offending Dr. Johnny! None of this would be happening otherwise!" an executive complained.
"Shut up!" Li Qingyan snapped. "That Johnny is a man of low character. If he had beco our spokesperson, he would have brought a huge negative impact to our company. This ti, the problem is mainly the pressure from the Kang City Business Alliance and the Fan Family. Johnny's influence is trivial. If it weren't for Yang Qi, neither the Jingzhou Ye Family nor the Provincial City Lei Mansion would have placed orders with us. You can't be so ungrateful!"
"But what do we do now?" the executives asked with bitter smiles. Even if they knew blaming Yang Qi was pointless, the problem still needed to be solved.
Just as Li Qingyan was about to speak, Yang Qi arrived.
"Li Qingyan, co with
to the high-speed rail station to pick soone up," Yang Qi said.
Li Qingyan was about to refuse, but then she heard Ye Fei say, "Go ahead. This person is an important guest for our company, so we can't be negligent!"
Though filled with suspicion, Li Qingyan followed Yang Qi. They took the company car, apparently to pick up Master Chen Guo. Although Master Chen Guo's status wasn't as high as Yang Qi's, Li Qingyan alone wouldn't have been able to handle this matter without him.
When Li Qingyan parked the car at the exit of the high-speed rail station, she was left almost speechless by the massive throng of people. Nurous business owners and citizens had all arrived. Among them were the Fan Family, the Kang City Business Alliance, City Lord Zhao Xiong, dia tycoon Yan Bo, real estate magnate Du Le'an, Liu Changsheng of the Kang City National dicine Association, and Yao Ran of the Elixir dicine Association.
The appearance of Qifei Group's car, still adorned with its company logo, caught so people's attention.
"Hahaha, Qifei Group is really clutching at straws. Their promotional channels have been completely cut off, so now they've set their sights on Master Chen. Who do they think he is? Soone they can just casually invite?" mocked Liang Jin, the Liang Family Head.
Many others shared his disdain for Qifei Group. Despite its recent growth, the company didn't even rank in the top ten in Kang City. Most people believed only three parties had a chance of receiving Master Chen Guo: the wealthiest Fan Family, the City Lord Mansion, and the Kang City Business Alliance. They were the only ones considered qualified. Moreover, many felt that Master Chen Guo's high-profile arrival in Kang City was surely by invitation, and the invitation must have co from one of these three. No one else had the standing.
Fan Ruobing and Fan Jian also spotted Yang Qi and Li Qingyan.
"Grandpa, that's him! That's the brat who hit
and refused to join our Fan Family!" Fan Ruobing said, pointing at Yang Qi. "His dical Skills are decent, I guess, but his attitude is terrible. He's so arrogant!"
"He's with Qifei Group's General Manager, Li Qingyan. Does he intend to help them?" Fan Shengren frowned.
Fan Jian laughed. He can wish all he wants. How could a re doctor from Kang City possibly get the attention of Master Chen!
"Hahaha, that's right. If I can't persuade Master Chen to join
today, then no one in this city can!" Fan Shengren laughed boisterously, brimming with a confidence suggesting no one in Kang City could compare to him. Not Zhao Xiong, and not even the Kang City Business Alliance.
"Grandpa, you're overthinking it. That bastard is probably just here for the spectacle!" Fan Ruobing seethed, her hatred for Yang Qi palpable.
At that mont, Yang Qi also saw Fan Shengren. He smiled and began to walk toward them, with Li Qingyan hurrying to keep up.
Fan Ruobing smirked. Is this kid regretting it? Does he want to join our Fan Family?
"With that much money on the table, who wouldn't be tempted?" Fan Jian added.
"He already refused once," Fan Ruobing said with a cold smile, planning to humiliate Yang Qi thoroughly. "He won't be joining our Fan Family so easily this ti. Not unless he gets on his knees and begs!"
Yang Qi walked right up to them, glanced at Fan Shengren, and said, "Seek
out within a month to save your life. Otherwise, you will die. Of course, you'll need to have your granddaughter kneel and apologize to . And you must also apologize to Qifei Group!"
His words were nothing short of explosive. Everyone nearby was stunned. They had thought Yang Qi was coming over to beg to join the Fan Family, not to make threats. Threatening the richest man in the city? Threatening Fan Shengren himself? Had he gone mad? And he even claid Fan Shengren wouldn't live more than a month?
The four chairn of the Kang City Business Alliance stood nearby, equally shocked. This kid had so nerve. Even City Lord Zhao Xiong wouldn't dare speak to Fan Shengren with such a tone. After all, Fan Shengren wasn't just wealthy; his network of connections and influence were also formidable. It would take the combined power of the four great families just to contend with him. This kid was too arrogant, too ignorant.
However, they didn't know that Yang Qi wasn't making a threat, but rely giving a warning. He was telling the truth: Fan Shengren's chronic illness had already reached a critical stage.
