"It's...our family's competitor, Shengshi Group." Dai Shiya took a deep breath and spoke word by word.
Wei Qing's pupils suddenly dilated, and she almost spilled the milk in her hand. "Shengshi? How could it be them? Why would they do this?"
"This is the 'huge secret' I have been pursuing." Dai Shiya rubbed her temple tiredly, "They secretly manipulated and raised the demolition payment, and then transferred the funds to themselves through offshore accounts, thereby weakening our family's capital chain."
"This is simply too despicable!" Wei Qing was filled with righteous indignation, "They are trying to force you into a dead end!"
Dai Shiya's eyes flashed with a cold light: "If they want to play, I will accompany them to the end. I must find out what other conspiracy they have!"
The next morning, Dai Shiya began to delve into the financial system of the family business. She carefully checked every account, leaving no clues. Wei Qing also joined the investigation. With her keen insight and data analysis skills, they quickly discovered some hidden accounts.
"The flow of funds in these accounts is very suspicious." Wei Qing pointed to the complicated chart on the computer screen, "Look, all the funds flowed to a foreign company called 'Huanyu'."
"Huanyu?" Dai Shiya frowned, "I have never heard of this company."
"Me too." Wei Qing pulled up the information about Huanyu Company. "This company is extremely mysterious. It is registered in the Cayman Islands. Its main business is unknown and there is almost no public information about it."
"Keep investigating!" Dai Shiya had a strong hunch that this company was the manipulator behind the external corporate alliance.
They spent several days unraveling the mystery and finally found some key information. There were frequent financial transactions between Huanyu Company and Shengshi Group, and these transactions were carefully disguised and difficult to detect.
"It seems that our guess is correct." Dai Shiya said in a heavy tone, "Shengshi Group is controlling all of this through Huanyu Company."
"Why would they do this?" Wei Qing was still confused. "Shengshi Group is already a giant in the industry, why would they go to such great lengths to deal with you?"
"Perhaps, they are afraid of the rise of our family." Dai Shiya's eyes sparkled with wisdom, "Or perhaps, they have a bigger conspiracy..."
Dai Shiya decided to take the initiative and contact Huanyu Company. However, the other party's contact information was extremely hidden, no one answered the phone calls, and the emails fell into the sea. Dai Shiya realized that the other party deliberately avoided them and obviously did not want to reveal their identity.
"It seems that a head-on confrontation won't work." Dai Shiya pondered for a moment, "We have to find another way."
She picked up the phone and dialed the number of an international business consulting agency. "Hello, I would like to consult about the background of a company called 'Huanyu'..." Dai Shiya's voice was low and firm, and her eyes showed a determination to win. The voice on the other end of the phone was unclear, as if covered by some kind of interference, intermittent and disturbing. She held the microphone tightly, and an inexplicable sense of crisis surged in her heart.
The interference sound on the other end of the phone became louder and louder, like the crackling sound of electricity, or the whistling of wind, and finally turned into a harsh noise, completely drowning out the other party's voice. Dai Shiya hung up the phone abruptly, her face solemn. This call further confirmed her guess that "Huanyu" company was not simple at all. The other party seemed to have anticipated her investigation and deliberately obstructed it. It was obviously not feasible to confront it head-on, so she needed to find another way.
Dai Shiya immediately contacted her private bank manager in Switzerland and asked him to find a reputable and well-informed international business consulting firm. She needed to investigate the background of "Huanyu" and its true relationship with Shengshi Group through formal channels.
"I need as much detailed information as possible, including but not limited to the company's registration information, major shareholders, business scope, source of funds, etc." Dai Shiya said firmly, leaving no room for doubt. "Cost is not a problem. The key is speed and absolute confidentiality."
After arranging the investigation of "Huanyu", Dai Shiya turned her attention to the family business. Although the external pressure was huge, internal innovation was the key to the long-term development of the enterprise. She knew that in order to break the technology monopoly of external enterprises, she must stimulate the innovation enthusiasm of employees and enhance the core competitiveness of the enterprise.
To this end, Dai Shiya convened a general staff meeting. Standing on the stage, she swept her eyes across the expectant faces and said calmly and forcefully: "I know that the company has been facing unprecedented challenges recently and the external competition pressure is huge. However, I believe that we have the ability to overcome these difficulties because we have the best team!"
She paused and raised her voice: "In order to encourage innovation, I have decided to launch a series of new incentives. We will set up a special innovation fund to reward employees who come up with valuable ideas and projects. At the same time, we will increase investment in research and development to provide sufficient resources for innovation. I believe that as long as we unite as one and dare to innovate, we will be able to overcome all challenges!"
Dai Shiya's impassioned speech won warm applause from all employees. The new incentives greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of employees, and they all devoted themselves to R&D work, hoping to contribute their own strength to the company. The R&D department was brightly lit, and engineers were conducting various experiments day and night. The marketing department actively investigated market demand and looked for new business opportunities. The sales department worked hard to expand the market and increase product sales.
A few days later, Dai Shiya received an email from a Swiss bank manager. The email included an investigation report on "Huanyu". Dai Shiya couldn't wait to open the report, but the content of the report surprised her. The report showed that "Huanyu" was a shell company with no actual business and all the registration information was forged.
"How is this possible?" Dai Shiya muttered to herself, feeling a chill rising from the soles of her feet. How could a shell company control such a huge flow of funds? What secrets were hidden behind this?
Just then, the secretary knocked on the door and handed Dai Shiya a document: "Boss Dai, this is the new product plan submitted by the R&D department."
Dai Shiya took the document and turned to the first page. Her eyes suddenly froze. The document clearly read: "Real-time communication system based on quantum entanglement technology." She raised her head suddenly and looked at the secretary...
Dai Shiya took the document and flipped through it quickly. The dense formulas and diagrams in the report made it difficult for her to fully understand, but she keenly caught a few key words: "quantum entanglement", "real-time communication", "ultra-long distance", and "no delay". These words were like a flash of lightning, illuminating the fog that had been circling in her mind.
"This is..." Dai Shiya raised her head and stared at the secretary with burning eyes, "Who is responsible for the research and development of this project?"
"It was Engineer Wei," the secretary replied respectfully, "She said the project is still confidential, so..."
"Let her come to my office." Dai Shiya said decisively.
In less than five minutes, Wei Qing rushed over, holding a tablet in her hand, with an expression of excitement and anticipation that could not be concealed.
"Shiya, have you read the report?" Wei Qing asked impatiently, "What do you think?"
"Incredible!" Dai Shiya exclaimed, "If this technology can really be realized, it will completely subvert the existing communication methods and even change the whole world!"
Wei Qing nodded, her eyes gleaming with confidence: "I have conducted preliminary experiments, and it is completely feasible in theory. Now all we need is financial and equipment support, as long as..."
"No problem!" Dai Shiya interrupted her without hesitation, "I fully support you! Just tell me how much money and what equipment you need!"
With the strong support of Dai Shiya, Wei Qing led the R&D team to invest in the development of new technologies day and night. With sufficient funds, advanced equipment in place, and the high enthusiasm of team members, the development of new technologies has made rapid progress.
At the same time, Dai Shiya did not relax her investigation of "Huanyu" and the mysterious force. She used all the resources she could and finally found out that the flow of funds of "Huanyu" was related to an organization called "Tuoxinhui" within the family business.
On the surface, the "Tuoxinhui" is an internal organization dedicated to promoting corporate innovation, but in fact it is a secret force hidden within the family business. They secretly control some of the company's resources and even influence some major decisions. And "Huanyu" is probably a puppet company launched by them for the purpose of...
"Shiya, there is some clue!" Wei Qing's voice interrupted Dai Shiya's contemplation. She quickly walked to Dai Shiya and handed her a document. "This is the information I got from the internal network of the 'Tuoxinhui'. Take a look..."
Dai Shiya took the document, quickly glanced through it, and her face suddenly became solemn. This document showed that the "Tuoxin Club" was secretly developing a technology that could control human brain thinking, and the "Huanyu" company was the cover they used to conduct this technology experiment...
"It seems that we are getting closer and closer to the truth." Dai Shiya took a deep breath, her eyes determined, "Let's go and meet this 'Tuoxin Club'!" Dai Shiya tightly grasped the document in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force. "Technology to control human brain thinking... What do they want to do?" She spoke in a low voice, with a hint of uncontrollable anger.
Wei Qing's face was equally solemn: "This document mentioned that the headquarters of the 'Tuoxinhui' is located in an extremely secret place. If we can find their headquarters, perhaps we can find more evidence and completely uncover this secret."
"Find the headquarters..." Dai Shiya repeated these words, with a flash of determination in her eyes, "We must find it! This is not only related to the future of the family business, but also to the fate of countless people."
The two immediately set out to find the headquarters of the "Tuo Xin Hui". They started with the existing information, carefully analyzing every detail and not letting go of any clues. With her strong technical ability, Wei Qing tracked the capital flow and network activities of the "Tuo Xin Hui", and combined with the intelligence obtained by Dai Shiya from the family, she gradually pieced together a vague map of the location of the "Tuo Xin Hui" headquarters.
For several days, they worked almost without sleep, and the office was filled with various documents, charts and maps. The bitter smell of coffee filled the air, witnessing their efforts and determination.
"Shiya, look here." Wei Qing pointed to a mark on the computer screen, her tone slightly excited, "The flow of funds of the 'Tuoxin Club' shows that they have recently sent a large amount of funds to a remote town in the southwestern mountainous area. Moreover, I tracked the cell phone signals of several core members of the 'Tuoxin Club' and they also briefly appeared near that town."
Dai Shiya leaned closer to the screen and carefully observed the mark on the map. It was a small town located between high mountains, with rugged terrain and inconvenient transportation. It was indeed a good place to hide secrets.
"Southwest mountain area..." Dai Shiya muttered to herself, and some rumors about the family's ancestral land that the family elders had mentioned flashed through her mind. It was said that the family's ancestors had lived in seclusion in the southwestern mountain area for many years, and many family secrets were buried there.
Could it be that the headquarters of the "Tuoxin Society" is located near the family's ancestral land? This thought made Dai Shiya feel frightened. If this is true, then the identity and purpose of the mastermind behind the "Tuoxin Society" are even more questionable.
"There is no time to lose, let's set off for the southwestern mountainous area immediately." Dai Shiya said decisively, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.
Wei Qing nodded and quickly packed up the necessary equipment and materials. She knew that this operation was full of unknown dangers, but in order to uncover the truth and for the future of the family, they had to go forward without hesitation.
The two drove away from the bustling city and sped towards the southwest mountainous area. As the scenery outside the car window changed, their mood gradually became heavy. The originally prosperous city scene was gradually replaced by rolling mountains, and the air was filled with a damp and cold breath.
"Shi Ya, look..." Wei Qing pointed ahead, with a hint of uneasiness in her tone.
Dai Shiya looked in the direction Wei Qing was heading, and saw a huge rock rolling down from the hillside on the mountain road ahead, blocking their way forward...
