Chapter 477

An Nuan slowly and calmly made a phone call to Beers.

On the other end, he was also furious about the Gu's scandal, saying, "Miss An, what on earth is going on with the Gu's?! Why do they owe your family another 2 billion yuan, and Gu Yan Sheng even publicly assaulted someone?! Are the Gu's trying to ruin themselves?!"

"The Gu's financial situation has indeed become worrying recently. I looked into it, and the Gu Group's stock price keeps falling. If this continues, they probably won't be able to hold on much longer and may go bankrupt!" An Nuan said bluntly.

"I should have known better than to partner with them. I should have chosen you! Even though your e-commerce market is much smaller, with your capabilities, you could probably make it bigger than the Gu Group's scale in a year or two." Beers now felt extremely regretful.

An Nuan smiled, "Actually, Mr. Beers doesn't need to regret it."

"How can I not regret it?! I was nearly persecuted to death by the directors and top management in my corporation. In all my years there, I have never been so slandered. I haven't failed an e-commerce investment in years. If I fall at Gu Yan Sheng's hands, it would really ruin my reputation and honor that I've built all my life."

"Don't worry Mr. Beers, I actually have a very good solution that can resolve your current difficulties," An Nuan said straightforwardly.

"You have a solution?" Beers was clearly very interested.

"Our international e-commerce project development has been going very smoothly, right?"

"If not for the Gu Group mess, we would have started making money back by now!" Beers said angrily.

It was all because of the Gu Group that progress had stalled.

"So if we continue the project now, we can make up for the losses," An Nuan said.

"How do we continue? The Gu Group is a complete mess right now with all the negative news, I'm worried that if we resume operations, there will be national boycotts. All our money and efforts will be wasted. I really don't dare take the risk!"

"I don't dare either," An Nuan agreed. "What I mean is, let a third party take over the Gu Group's international e-commerce project."

"You mean?" Beers was shocked for a moment.

He didn't have time to think so much in such a short period.

An Nuan said straightforwardly, "I'm not hiding anything from Mr. Beers anymore. The An Group wants to completely take down the Gu Group and complete this project with you."

"Of course I'm more than willing, but how will you take them down?"

"I'll need Mr. Beers' cooperation for this," An Nuan said plainly.

"Tell me," Beers agreed without hesitation.

"The Gu Group owes us 2 billion yuan. With their current financial condition, there's no way they can pay us back. And they won't be willing to exchange shares either. The only option is to auction off collateral. I've looked into all of the Gu Group's projects, the only one that can fetch any real value is the international e-commerce project. So when weighing everything, Gu Yan Sheng will have no choice but to painfully auction off this project. And he definitely won't auction it to me - to be blunt, our grievances run too deep. There's no way he'll make things easy for me."

"So?" Beers asked.

"So we need Mr. Beers to publicly state that you will only partner with the An Group on this project. That is, if the Gu Group sells it to someone else, you will terminate cooperation. Businessmen will assess the project value and future prospects - the only real future lies with the international e-commerce component. If that's gone, no businessman will still want to buy their domestic e-commerce platforms either. That way, to protect himself, Gu Yan Sheng will have no choice but to sell to me."

Beers nodded, unable to help but admire An Nuan for thinking so far ahead at such a young age.

He even felt that An Nuan had worked so diligently on operating the e-commerce project before in order to gain his trust, so that now he would help her when she needed it. And in the end, everything she did was actually for her own benefit after all.

She had planned it all so perfectly from the very start.

This woman would have an immeasurable future ahead of her.

Seeing that Mr. Beers had not responded for a long time, An Nuan also grew somewhat nervous.

She had to admit, she had been plotting this project from the very beginning, just waiting for this day.

She wasn't completely certain that Beers wouldn't feel she was just using him.

After a rather awkward period of silence.

Beers finally said, "Alright."

He agreed all at once.

An Nuan felt a huge weight lift from her heart, but maintained a calm exterior, "Thank you Mr. Beers. I hope our cooperation going forward will be even more pleasant."

"I have no worries at all about working with you," he gave high praise.

"I will definitely live up to expectations," An Nuan assured, and added, "Mr. Beers, according to the contract, when the Gu Group needs to transfer the international e-commerce project, they have to notify you in advance and obtain your consent. So when Gu Yan Sheng tells you about this, I hope that at the same time, you can specify clearly who you need as a cooperation partner."

"Understood."

"Thank you, Mr. Beers."

"Likewise."

The two complimented each other briefly.

An Nuan put down her phone.

The smile at the corner of her mouth was very clear.

After all, everything was unfolding as she had imagined!

A glint flashed in her eyes.

She picked up her office line and called Luo Si, "Secretary Luo, notify Gu Yan Sheng that if he still hasn't paid back what he owes by 10am tomorrow, we will take legal action."

"Yes." Luo Si complied respectfully.

After a while.

Luo Si entered and said, "Miss An, Gu Yan Sheng said he will pay in person tomorrow at 10am."

"Good," An Nuan nodded.

Luo Si frowned, "Miss An, don't you find it strange? Where is Gu Yan Sheng getting the money to repay the debt?! If he had money, he wouldn't have borrowed fraudulently in the first place."

"Of course Gu Yan Sheng has come to his senses and decided to give up some things," An Nuan said coldly.

If he didn't give up, he would have no way out.

Gu Yan Sheng also had his own judgement when it came to right and wrong.

She said, "Go take care of your own tasks."

"Yes."

Luo Si left.

After a while.

An Nuan received another call from Beers, who said straightforwardly, "Gu Yan Sheng just communicated with me privately. Due to the Gu Group's own poor operations, he needs to transfer the e-commerce project and hopes I will understand. I agreed."

"Then please have Mr. Beers release a public statement," An Nuan said.

"The statement is already under review, it will be released within half an hour."

"Thank you."

After An Nuan hung up, she deliberately called Gu Yan Sheng.

Seeing An Nuan's call, his expression clearly turned much uglier. He said sarcastically, "An Nuan, do you really think you can destroy my Gu Group so easily?! Let me tell you, I have ten thousand ways to ensure my Gu Group comes out of this completely unharmed! Don't think you can threaten me in any way!"
