Wu Yingxiong was caught in a deadly trap by Wo Long, leaving him no choice but to pledge his loyalty. His demeanor shifted to one of subservience, like a dog.
There was no other way; embezzling three hundred billion was a massive crime. If Wo Long truly pursued it, Wu Yingxiong's life would be over.
The face of Tang Jun and the other seventeen company executives changed drastically in response to Wo Long's counterattack. None of them had expected Wo Long, who had been so discreet, to drop such a bombshell with his first move.
If they hadn't understood why Shen Lang had promoted his junior brother before, they understood now. This person was terrifyingly capable, hiding his true strength.
"Slap—"
"Slap—"
"Slap—"
While Tang Jun and the other seventeen company executives were still reeling, Wo Long grabbed the thick stacks of file bags before him and tossed them out one by one, landing precisely in front of each of them.
"Everyone, I've always believed that no one is perfect. Everyone has weaknesses and makes mistakes. The file bags in front of you contain the mistakes you've made over the years."
"Betrayal, embezzlement, selling company patents to competitors—you've made too many mistakes. To prevent you from forgetting due to old age, I've specifically compiled all the evidence of your wrongdoings. You can open them and take a look now."
Wo Long picked up a bottle of mineral water, twisted open the cap, and chugged the entire contents in one go before placing the bottle back down with a thud.
"This..."
Looking at the bulging file bags before them, Tang Jun and the seventeen company executives' faces turned pale. As Wo Long had said, no one was perfect, and they had all done things against the company to varying degrees over the years. However, they couldn't believe that these actions would one day be discovered.
At that moment, everyone scrutinized Wo Long anew, finding his eyes as deep and terrifying as black holes, as if they could swallow everything. In front of Wo Long, they felt as transparent as glass.
"Wo Long?"
They all suddenly remembered that this was Zhuge Liang's Taoist name, and these two words represented unparalleled wisdom.
"Everyone, don't look at me. Take a good look at the documents in the file bags."
Seeing their shocked expressions, Wo Long smiled and said, "After you've read them, then decide if you want to support me."
Upon hearing Wo Long's words, Tang Jun and the seventeen company executives shakily opened the file bags. The moment they started reading, everyone's faces turned ashen with fear, just like Wu Yingxiong's.
Inside the file bags were the hidden and shameful things they had done over the years, documented in such excruciating detail that it was even more precise than their own memories.
If this information were to be revealed, every single one of them would be ruined and imprisoned for life.
"Chairman Wo Long, you are magnanimous. Please spare us this time."
Tang Jun and the seventeen company executives stood up and knelt before Wo Long in unison.
"Haha, everyone, what are you doing? Please rise, quickly rise."
The change in their attitude and address signified that they had made their decision. Seeing this, Wo Long laughed heartily. "Don't worry, I am a generous person. I forgive your momentary confusion and will not hand over these documents to the Military Guard Department this time."
"However, this doesn't mean the matter is over. I reserve the right to pursue it. At the same time, I expect you to compensate the company for all the losses you have caused. Do you understand?"
"We understand—"
Hearing Wo Long's words, led by Tang Jun, all the company executives lowered their heads. They were now at his mercy, and whatever Wo Long said went.
"Very good—"
Wo Long was very satisfied with Tang Jun and the others' attitudes. "In that case, as my senior brother said, the first matter is that I am now the chairman, and the second matter is to prepare the equity transfer agreement."
"Understood—"
Hearing Wo Long's words, Tang Jun immediately had his secretary, Lin Huan, prepare the equity transfer agreement. An hour later, Shen Lang transferred his thirty-five percent stake to Wo Long and also entrusted another thirty-five percent to Wo Long for safekeeping.
"Good, the first and second matters are complete. Now, let's convene a company shareholders' meeting."
Wo Long looked at the pale and frightened Tang Jun and the others and announced, "Next, I will announce two important decisions."
"First, I declare that the company founder and former chairman, Tang Jun, will serve as Vice Chairman. His original position is revoked, effective immediately."
"Second, I declare that, apart from Vice Chairman Tang Jun, everyone else's positions remain unchanged."
After delivering a heavy blow and then offering a sweet reward, Wo Long's decision allowed the previously terrified Tang Jun and others to breathe a sigh of relief. Simultaneously, their respect for Wo Long grew immeasurably.
Wo Long was no longer the insignificant youngster they had perceived him to be. He had become someone they feared. With incriminating evidence in hand, they had no choice but to show him absolute respect and obedience.
"Alright, if no one has any objections, the meeting is adjourned. Everyone return to your duties."
After announcing his decisions, Wo Long ignored everyone else's reactions and directly declared the meeting adjourned.
Hearing Wo Long's words, Tang Jun and the others obediently left, leaving only Wo Long and Shen Lang in the conference room.
Looking at Shen Lang, Wo Long put on a flattering smile and asked, "Senior brother, how was my performance? Was it okay?"
"It was good, much better than I imagined. It seems you were indeed thoroughly prepared. You didn't lie; you truly have a significant background."
Shen Lang smiled and asked, "Did you really deal with people from the Black Dragon family?"
"Of course, is there any reason to doubt it?"
Wo Long smiled and said, "Although I left the family years ago, I'm still a member. With a word from me, thousands of people in this world will do my bidding. Investigating the crimes of Tang Jun and the others was incredibly simple."
"Senior brother, don't worry. Controlling these people is easy for me. With me here, this company will always be yours, and there will never be any unexpected issues."
"You're wrong, it's not just mine; it's ours, as brothers."
Shen Lang punched Wo Long's chest heavily and said, "Everything I have, except for the woman I love, I can share with you, because we are brothers."
"Yes, we are brothers."
Wo Long smiled. "Since we're brothers, there's nothing we can't share, except for the woman we love."
"Haha, now that Nan Guo Technology is settled, I need to prepare for the wedding."
Shen Lang smiled and said, "You're my brother, so you need to put your heart into this. Feel free to share any good ideas you have."
"Don't worry, I will. However, I'm concerned that your wedding might not go as smoothly."
Wo Long sighed and said, "I'm not worried about Ye Shishi, nor about Yu Xiao and Yu Fei, or even Tang Wan'er. But I am worried about Wang Yuyan. With her around, your wedding might encounter some unexpected changes."
