Chapter 2016: Chapter 462: Love After 25
The others, upon hearing Gu Mochen’s words, swallowed hard.
This move by Gu Mochen is what you call pulling the rug out from under someone’s feet.
Those who came to work at Carlo are all top technical talents from France. Now Gu Mochen not only wants to pull Carlo out of France but is also offering high compensation. These elite talents emigrating or working abroad will undoubtedly result in France losing both talent and money.
Everyone immediately began whispering among themselves, secretly trying to come up with ideas. But facing Gu Mochen, there are truly too few options, if any.
"Today is the last board meeting for Carlo’s France branch. After the meeting, I will announce Carlo’s bankruptcy. By then, everyone’s profits will be distributed according to stock dividends. I apologize; it’s not because I don’t want to work with everyone, but rather circumstances have led to this."
"By the way, Carlo’s withdrawal from France is purely because we don’t favor this media and platform, not because we truly admitted there are radiation issues with our group’s jewelry."
Having said that, Gu Mochen’s eyes remained indifferent as he continued, "In fact, regarding the news about Carlo jewelry causing miscarriages for pregnant women, after a week of thorough investigation, the results have come out... I think everyone may be interested in the truth. Secretary Zhou, please distribute it."
"Yes, President Gu."
Secretary Zhou couldn’t help but speak as he distributed the files to each board member.
"This pregnant woman used musk to induce a miscarriage... Musk is one of China’s traditional Chinese medicine materials; it can open the senses and eliminate impurities, promote blood circulation, and disperse clots. Animal experiments have proven that musk has a gradual and lasting exciting effect on the uterus, enhancing its contractions and increasing uterine tension. In large doses, the uterus can enter a semi-spasmodic state. The stimulating effect is more evident on the late-term pregnant uterus, which can lead to miscarriages."
"So everyone has in their hands a file that clearly shows the pregnant woman purchased large quantities of musk herbs a week before the miscarriage."
Pausing, Secretary Zhou looked at the group, whose faces revealed sudden realization, and continued, "So this is why the main cause of the miscarriage was due to this, and it’s why, upon examining the pregnant woman’s body, only a miscarriage was found without a critical cause."
After his report, Secretary Zhou continued.
"On the market in France, musk is rarely supplied. How this pregnant woman managed to purchase it... I’ll leave it at that. Directors, you may use your imagination and also ponder over the recent boycotts Carlo has faced in France; the hostility is not insignificant."
Having said this, Secretary Zhou returned to his seat, awaiting further instructions from Gu Mochen.
Some things don’t need to be spelled out, as everyone knew.
Gu Mochen’s slender fingers lightly tapped the documents on the table in a slow rhythm, looking calmly at the unpleasant expressions on everyone’s faces, and he spoke, "Regarding specific shareholder withdrawals, the accountants will contact everyone. If anyone still wishes to invest in Carlo, I apologize, as I do not plan to invest in the French platform at present. Therefore, you may consider investing in the Carlo branches in neighboring countries since, according to the latest European Union survey, Carlo has successfully become part of the top financial conglomerate in Italy."
"Alright, meeting dismissed."
After speaking, Gu Mochen stood up, gently taking Jian Ran’s small hand, shedding his cold demeanor, and his lips curved lightly.
"Shall we?"
"Alright."
Jian Ran met the man’s gentle eyes, a faint smile on her lips, as her small hand was warmly enclosed in the man’s large hand.
Full of warmth, Jian Ran felt her heart melt.
A peaceful resolution successfully handled such a grand mess. Since France wants to take over, let them take over.
Jian Ran supports everything her husband does.
...
"President Gu... Mrs. Gu."
"What should we do now..."
"Please don’t leave, give us another chance."
The board members, seeing that Gu Mochen was about to leave, excitedly attempted to intervene, only to be stopped by security arranged by Secretary Zhou.
"Apologies, please allow President Gu some personal space... Additionally, President Gu’s decision has been made with thorough consideration, please respect President Gu’s choice, apart from himself, there is no one who can change President Gu’s decisions."
"Ah..."
"What should we do now."
"Yes, yes, now this is really big, without Carlo, how will we survive."
