Chapter 124: Chapter 122: Get Ready for Bankruptcy Liquidation
After a while, the police arrived.
After understanding the situation, the police officers quickly set up a cordon around the bags at the scene, prohibiting anyone from approaching.
Then, they interrogated the female strear.
But no matter what the police asked, she just wouldn’t answer, insisting on waiting for her boss to co.
The police wanted to take her back for investigation, and she imdiately threw a tantrum on the floor.
After causing a scene for more than twenty minutes, the female strear’s boss arrived.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Dear officers, I am her boss, Li Changhong. I don’t know what wrong she has done?"
Li Changhong?
This na sounds familiar.
Yang Chen thought carefully and finally rembered that the boss of Finance University junior Li Qinqin’s guild was nad Li Changhong.
The police officer replied, "Selling counterfeit goods."
Li Changhong tentatively asked, "Officer, can I ask how serious her issue is?"
If it’s not serious, paying a fine would solve it, then he should back her up.
If it’s serious, then he should quickly disassociate himself.
"Just the offline sales have reached more than 60 thousand, plus online sales, it exceeds 100 thousand, and with the unsold goods, it’s considered a significantly large case. If evidence is solid, she can face up to two years imprisonnt, and a fine of 50% to double the sales. Her accomplices will be punished accordingly, be it jail ti or fines. You are the boss, you better not say you didn’t know." The police officer replied with certainty.
Upon hearing the severity, Li Changhong quickly disconnected himself from the issue.
"Officers, I must formally clarify this. I admit I am her boss. But as you will find out with a little inquiry, strears secretly take on private jobs outside. As a guild boss with so many strears under , I can’t possibly supervise each one closely. I admit responsibility for inadequate supervision, but I was completely unaware of this, you can’t count
in."
Yang Chen imdiately said, "She’s your employee, when making money it relates to you, when in trouble you claim ignorance. An employee’s actions, whether or not you are aware, should be covered by the company. Officers, don’t you think so?"
"What you said is not wrong. When they are making money for you, you accept it. Now there’s trouble, you want to claim ignorance and sever ties, that won’t do. You should both co with us for investigation." The police officer said.
Li Changhong was unhappy and said to Yang Chen, "Who are you? What’s it got to do with you? Mind your own business, okay?"
Yang Chen chuckled and replied, "You’re pretty tough, huh? I don’t want to waste words with you, just wait for the legal letter. Your strear is suspected of forging Louis Vuitton bags for fraudulent sales, let’s see if pleading ignorance frees you from legal responsibility. I won’t stop until you’ve lost your last pair of pants."
"Who do you think you are? You think they will sue
just because you say so?" Li Changhong said defiantly.
The manager rushed to say, "Mr. Yang is our Louis Vuitton Group’s second largest shareholder, only surpassed by LVMH Group. If he says to sue, we will definitely sue you."
Li Changhong was shocked and quickly said, "Mr. Yang, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. No... Now that I look closely, I think I’ve seen you sowhere."
"Probably in Li Qinqin’s streaming room." Yang Chen replied with a smile.
Li Changhong nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, the last ti she was doing an outdoor stream for Finance University..."
Li Changhong was too shocked to speak.
The person before him was Li Qinqin’s senior from school, the big shot of Undying Star who drives a Bugatti Veyron!
"You... you’re Undying Star, Li Qinqin’s senior with the Bugatti Veyron?" Li Changhong stamred.
Among the onlookers were netizens who recognized Undying Star.
"Ah! He’s Undying Star? The one who spent over ten million in a single stream on Douyu?"
"Wow, Undying Star Lord, he even got that Lonely Smoke imprisoned."
"No wonder he’s a tycoon, extraordinary in every way, fulfills all my fantasies of a wealthy tycoon."
...
"Last ti I warned you in her stream room, don’t make things difficult for her. Have you been making things difficult for her these past few days?" Yang Chen asked.
Li Changhong mumbled without a reply because he had sent several groups to repeatedly pressure Li Qinqin to renew her contract in recent days.
In a scuffle with them, Li Qinqin accidentally fell and is still in the hospital for treatnt.
Yang Chen’s expression darkened as he asked, "Looking at you, you’ve been troubling her? In three hours, she’ll be under . If you’ve troubled her, be prepared for bankruptcy and liquidation. I’ll have the lawyer drag things out till your company collapses."
It is well-known many companies prefer to avoid lawsuits, fearing they might be dragged down by litigation.
So large companies, like Nanshan Pizza Hut, especially love to engage in lawsuits, as they are affluent and can afford it, handling even trivial matters with lawsuits, since they won’t suffer losses.
Louis Vuitton, as a globally renowned luxury brand, to bring down an influencer economy company is simply too easy.
So, Yang Chen wasn’t bluffing Li Changhong, he truly could do what he said.
Li Changhong hastily apologized, "Mr. Yang, I’m sorry, it’s my fault. Be magnanimous, I can pay compensation, I hope to settle this privately. It took a lot for
to build a company, please don’t ruin it instantly."
Actually, if it goes to court, the most likely outco is he pays compensation.
The issue is once it goes to court, Louis Vuitton’s side could apply to freeze Li Changhong’s company’s funds, and that’s the deadly part.
If the lawsuit drags on for 2-3 years, unable to pay the strears, the company will definitely collapse.
But if it can be settled privately, he wouldn’t mind paying a bit more, because the company’s funds won’t be frozen, which is why he wants to settle privately with Yang Chen.
"Talk to the lawyer." Yang Chen instructed, "Manager Li, call the Dragon Country District president and have him instruct the legal departnt to send them a lawyer’s letter tomorrow."
The manager promptly nodded, "Okay, okay. I’ll handle it right away."
Yang Chen nodded, glanced at Yu Shishi, then the two of them walked away together.
The onlookers stepped aside automatically, all looking at Yang Chen with admiration.
"Wow, he’s so impressive, a real-life domineering CEO."
"Seeing him makes
realize the CEOs on TV dramas are so cringy."
"He can bankrupt a company with just a few words, so domineering!"
"I’d love to be his mistress, wonder if he’d be interested."
"Ugh..."
...
At this mont, the system issued a reminder.
"Yu Shishi’s loyalty towards the Master has increased to 65, up by 2 points."
Yang Chen subconsciously glanced at Yu Shishi, she was looking at him with admiration.
"Why are you sneaking peeks at ? Does my face say ’I love you’?" Yang Chen joked.
Yu Shishi imdiately replied shyly, "Hehe... No, I just think you’re so handso, just like the domineering CEO in my imagination."
It was getting late, so Yang Chen headed ho with Yu Shishi.
The two arrived at the underground parking lot, where a couple were embracing.
The woman seed quite drunk and could hardly stand.
The man looked sowhat familiar; Yang Chen tilted his head to take a closer look and realized it was his high school classmate, Wang Jun.
Back in high school, Wang Jun sat behind Yang Chen; they were good buddies and often played basketball together.
Later, Wang Jun got into Nanda University while Yang Chen went to Hai City Finance University, and they gradually lost contact.
Unexpectedly running into him here, Yang Chen felt like going up to greet him.
However, a sentence from the drunk girl in Wang Jun’s arms made them all stop.
"Li Ming, do you know how much I miss you?"
A drunk girl clinging to Wang Jun, calling out the na Li Ming, seed to steer the plot towards lodrama.
Yang Chen decided against greeting them to avoid awkwardness for everyone.
But it’s rare to reunite with a great buddy, leaving without a word wouldn’t feel right either.
And Wang Jun’s situation seed grim; he was frozen, he must be internally hurting right now.
"Shishi, go wait for
in the car first." Yang Chen said.
Yu Shishi figured out Yang Chen surely knew the couple, so she nodded and cautiously went to look for the car.
