In the Hua Hong Group conference room, representatives from both sides sat separately. By now, Zhao Fang had recovered from his earlier shock and was contemplating how to share some crucial information with Fu Cheng.

Biting her lip, Zhao Fang approached Fu Cheng and said, Brother Fu, 1 have something important to tell you.

Fu Cheng was momentarily surprised but nodded in agreement.

I apologize, President Zhou, but I have some urgent matters to attend to. 111 be back shortly.

No problem, theres still about ten minutes left until the shareholders meeting, and one shareholder hasnt arrived yet. You go ahead and take care of your business, Zhou Chao replied. He had observed their conversation and had a general idea of what was happening, so he didnt intervene.

Fu Cheng nodded and left the office with Zhao Fang. They found an empty conference room, and Fu Cheng furrowed his brows, asking, Ah Fang, whats the matter? It seems quite urgent.

After taking a few deep breaths to calm himself, Zhao Fang slowly began, 1 know the origin of the Dragonfly Group that Young Master Zhou mentioned. You know? Quickly, tell me. What is the Dragonfly Group? Fu Chengs eyes lit up with anticipation. If he could learn more about the other party, he might find a way to salvage his own situation. After all, the connections they had built over the years were not something to be taken lightly.

Organizing his thoughts, Zhao Fang continued, This matter relates to what happened with Zhang Ruoyun before.

Zhang Ruoyun? Didnt we resolve that issue already? They paid the breach of contract penalty. How does this connect to the Dragonfly Group? Fu Cheng was puzzled since Zhao Fang was in charge of company matters, and important issues were typically reported to him. Since this matter involved family, they often handled it within the household.

Its true that we resolved it, but before that, a company called the Dragonfly Group contacted Zhang Ruoyun and even had Lao Ma get involved to reach out to us. However, we declined their offer.

Fu Chengs expression changed upon hearing this. He quickly asked, Lao Ma? Why wasnt I informed of this matter?

It wasnt Lao Ma personally who made the call; it was his assistant. They didnt explain the situation clearly, just mentioned someone wanted to negotiate. 1 thought they were using Lao Mas name to pressure us, so 1 asked for some time to consider it and eventually declined the offer. After Zhang Ruoyun repaid the money, 1 didnt think much of it. I never imagined it would turn out like this, Zhao Fang said, his voice becoming choked with emotion.

Fu Cheng now understood the situation better. It seemed like Dragonfly Group had extended an olive branch, but they had not been receptive, and their refusal might have offended the other party, especially considering they involved Lao Ma.

Fu Cheng sighed deeply and said, Ill call Lao Ma and inquire about the situation to see if he can help us out. Thank you for letting me know.

He took out his phone and dialed the number, and after four or five rings, Lao Ma answered.

Hello! came Lao Mas instantly recognizable voice.

Director Ma, hello, Im Fucheng from Huaxia Films, and I wanted to inquire about something. Fucheng didnt waste any time and went straight to the point.

You may proceed, what is it?

I just wanted to ask about the owner of Dragonfly Group. I wonder if you have any information about them.

Upon hearing this, Lao Ma probably already understood what was going on. After all, he hadnt forgotten the favor Zhou Chao had asked of him before. What? Have you gotten into trouble with them?

Upon hearing Lao Mas question, Fucheng hesitated for a moment, then quickly explained the whole situation. For a moment, Fuchengs breathing slowed down as if he was waiting for a verdict.

I cant help you with this matter. Even if you search through all the members of the Zhejiang Business Association, it wont help. In the end, its your own mistake, and you cant blame anyone else.

Upon hearing this, Fucheng felt as if he had fallen into an abyss with no bottom. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself.

Director Ma, can you tell me about their strength?

Their strength? 1 cant even see that kids strength clearly. If I were to say, their overall strength is not inferior to my Ali Group. Thats it; Ive said enough. Handle it on your own. Lao Ma said before hanging up the phone.

Looking at Fucheng, who looked dejected, Zhao Fang said guiltily, Fucheng, Ive caused trouble for the company!

All, its okay. The situation is already set, and theres no use in talking about it anymore. We cant beat them, so well just have to accept our fate! Fucheng had a resigned attitude.

Brother Fu, if we were to join their group, do you think Young Master Zhou would be willing to accept us? Think about it, weve been in this industry for so many years, with countless connections. Its a natural advantage, and with our addition, the company might flourish even more.

If we cant beat them, should we join them? Thats a good idea, but we shouldnt appear too eager. Lets see how the situation develops first. Fucheng had figured it out. Even if the company wasnt his, with Zhou Chaos support, they could still make a lot of money..
