Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 64 - 0: Adding fuel to the fire

Zhang Jun felt disgusted.

After he hung up the phone, he made a call to a well-connected friend in the circle.

He inquired about the situation of the Tianfeng Private Equity Fund.

The other party said, "I’ve heard that several investors did indeed receive some money, but how much they actually got is unknown; after all, it’s a private fund, so there’s no way to check or disclose the financial details. However, many people are now probing for information and looking to follow suit by investing in Tianfeng’s fund products."

Zhang Jun, "Do you think this could be a scam? Those few guys I introduced got a little favor and they’re now speaking for Tianfeng. Damn it!"

The friend on the other end said, "The likelihood of it being a scam is high, but I must say, Lin Yue’s husband’s move, whether it’s intentionally giving money to clients or not, has at least made a name for Tianfeng in the Jiangcheng financial circles. Isn’t that what everyone’s been talking about? They say Lin Yue deliberately fabricated her husband’s background. If it’s really to attract more capital from Jiangcheng, then they’ve indeed succeeded!"

Zhang Jun, "Do you know about their recent fundraising of 50 billion?"

Friend, "I know, it’s said that out of the 50 billion share, they’ve already successfully raised over thirty billion in just a few days."

Zhang Jun sneered, "You believe that? For such private funds, the financial information which isn’t publicly disclosed, is highly likely to be false. Gu Feng must have contributed his own money to return to the clients as a way to make a name for themselves. I feel that with these 50 billion, he will definitely abscond, or use the money to secretly aid Thunder Group through their current difficulties!"

"That’s not impossible," the friend said worriedly. "But I heard that several prominent young investors have entered the scene. If Gu Feng is dealing with them, you might also have to consider their reactions if you want to go against him."

Zhang Jun, "What’s there to be afraid of? My family’s foreign trade industry has no financial dealings with them. Besides, these people aren’t fools; if Gu Feng can’t provide them with enough returns, he won’t only be rejected by the circle, but he will face backlash. With these people involved, I actually think Gu Feng and Lin Yue wouldn’t dare to run off."

As he said that, he spoke with a sinister tone, "At this point, why not deliver Lin Yue a devastating blow!"

He ended the call with his friend.

Immediately after, he dialed the phone to his company’s vice president.

Zhang Jun, "Vice President Yue, please contact the domestic suppliers that cooperate with Thunder Group. Poach as many as you can; we can even offer them a few more points on their total sales return." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Tell them, rather than sticking with Thunder Group and seeing no hope, they’d be better off joining us. If they don’t switch over now, by the time Thunder Group collapses, we won’t consider working with them."

Foreign trade is a two-way operation.

Importing domestic goods for sale abroad, while also taking foreign goods and processing them through customs duties for local consumption.

All manner of domestic foreign trade companies are responsible for different exported goods on consignment.

Large companies with the capability usually purchase exclusive distribution rights.

The advantage is being able to negotiate a lower unit price and form a win-win strategy with suppliers; the downside is the risk inherent in revenue targets.

Zhang Jun’s family business handles a different range of export products and brands than Lin Yue’s company.

Moreover, their export region and target markets are different.

Thus, they have always maintained friendly relations without any competition.

But now, if Zhang Jun wished to strike at Thunder Group while it was weak, he could sever the domestic suppliers that had partnered with Thunder.

After all, we also export overseas. Unlike Thunder, we won’t run out of foreign clients. Rather than letting Thunder suppress their goods and delay payments, it’s better to collaborate with Zhang Family’s company. We have ready access to foreign consumer channels, and although we haven’t tried selling other types of goods before, it wouldn’t hurt to give it a try.

In summary, Zhang Jun was not content with just watching; he wanted to stab Lin Yue in the back and add fuel to the fire on her capital chain!

This way, she wouldn’t be able to focus on Gu Feng, and if Gu Feng didn’t have Lin Yue’s financial aid, his strategy to repay the fund clients from his own pocket would fall through. If he then failed to provide the returns promised to those wealthy young investors, he would be vilified by the capital circle in Jiangcheng, and Lin Yue would also be to blame!

That would be killing two birds with one stone!

Just as Gu Feng and Lin Yue arrived at the restaurant, Lin Yue received a call from the sales department manager of her company.

The manager said, "President Lin, there’s trouble. Two of our longtime domestic clients want to terminate their contracts with us and are considering other partners."

Lin Yue’s face changed.

Without a breakthrough abroad, the home front was ablaze?

She frowned, "Things were fine. Didn’t they agree to give us some more time? We aren’t withholding their money, what’s the rush?"

Sales Department Manager, "But they said they can’t see the returns on the total sales volume in the near future, and from what I’ve heard from their internal staff, it seems to be the ’Chengjun’ Group’s doing. They’ve secretly approached our partners, and 2 out of 8 have already wavered, while the others are still watching!"

"Chengjun? Zhang Jun!" Lin Yue exclaimed, her expression turning frosty.

Gu Feng saw the car had arrived at the restaurant and noticed Lin Yue was still on the phone.

And after hearing the name ’Zhang Jun’, seeing Lin Yue’s displeased look, he asked, "What’s wrong?"

Lin Yue quickly composed her face, ended the call with her employee, and turned to Gu Feng, "There’s a little issue at the company. It’s nothing, let’s go. We don’t want to keep mom and the others waiting."
