Chapter 513: Chapter 513

"So, is everyone truly unable to outplay that woman who has already died?"

"Perhaps you would say, let Changda re-register its trademark. No, that is impossible. Changda has become a hugely famous company both domestically and overseas. In other words, the value of its trademark is equivalent to a celebrity’s brand—it’s immeasurable and certainly not something you can just change on a whim."

"Otherwise, why would so many large companies be willing to spend so much money on legal fees each year to protect their trademarks?"

Kang Junjia and Lin Jiale both frowned, their brows knotted in frustration.

"Perhaps they thought too simply? They always assumed that once Xiao Jianming was ousted, everything would immediately come to an end. They had always believed that without Xiao Jianming, Changda would be nothing—easily manipulated by others. After all, Xiao Jianming’s children seemed incompetent, no match for them."

"They also believed that by colluding with vast external capital forces, swallowing Changda in one bite wouldn’t be an issue. Now it seems, fundamentally, it’s not a problem that can be resolved with money alone."

"Those in finance always believe that money is everything—what can’t be solved with money?"

"In reality, they couldn’t have been more wrong."

"We cannot help but acknowledge their mother-in-law, the now-deceased woman, Ruan Ruzhen, taught them a lesson on what it means to be a true businessman, a real player in finance."

"Who has the house now?"

"It seems the only way to solve this issue is to get the house back from its owner. No matter the cost, no matter how much money, they must consider it."

"If money could knock it down, then fine, but I’m afraid that the house is now in the hands of someone who doesn’t care about money."

A group of people was bewildered and anxious, seemingly able to foresee that the house was possibly in the hands of someone who truly didn’t care about money."

"Anyway, our boss is very angry now, and it’s all because your initial intelligence work wasn’t thorough enough," the foreigner Luo Ke said in fluent Chinese, intending to express his indignation.

Kang Junjia and Lin Jiale, however, remained unconvinced. As partners, they were supposed to be equals. The other party was simply trying to shift the blame for the failure onto them, to justify their actions to those who had lent them money.

"I’m sorry, Mr. Luo Ke, I don’t think the fault lies entirely with us. On the contrary, the responsibility should be shared by everyone. It’s clear that you received information quicker but didn’t inform us immediately, which goes against our cooperation agreement and the basis of mutual trust." Kang Junjia and Lin Jiale certainly wouldn’t fall for it, flatly refusing to take on the burden of responsibility.

"Fine." The other party agreed readily enough, warning them, "If we fail, your dreams of becoming the masters of Changda and sitting on the real management board will vanish into thin air."

Kang Junjia’s palms were sweaty, and likewise, Lin Jiale was unable to contain his frustration, shouting back, "You don’t need to tell us—we already know!"

It goes without saying that now was definitely not the time for internal arguments over who was at fault. Perhaps the other party’s intention was not to pass off the blame, but rather to stir their fighting spirit, to make them anxious and more willing to comply.

"At this point," Luo Ke said, "let’s not argue. With the opponent having played this hand, we must decide to show no mercy."

"So, what we have to do next is to force out the person who holds the rights to the house and make them hand it over." Kang Junjia quickly grasped the implication behind the other party’s words.
