Zimmer Corporation held a press conference to support its stock price as it crashed. Then River City’s banks came to collect their debts.
The stockholders also surrounded Zimmer Corporation. The event had spread all over River City. Even ordinary people outside the business circle had heard the news about Zimmer Corporation.
Zimmer Corporation had raised its fame. However, there was the good kind of fame and the bad kind of fame. Zimmer Corporation must be uncomfortable being the center of such a storm.
Jon thought all favonovel.com needed to do was raise enough money for River City Bank and some of the stockholders who wanted to sell off their stocks. However, favonovel.com forgot an old saying.
The old saying, “Rats would desert a sinking ship” was not groundless.
As news of Zimmer Corporation’s plight spread, Zimmer Corporation’s upstream clients and downstream suppliers were rattled.
It was true that the suppliers depended on Zimmer Corporation for their livelihood. Zimmer Corporation was their boss. However, they were only the boss when they had money.
Who would acknowledge Zimmer Corporation when they had no money?
Therefore, numerous suppliers came and demanded they settle their debts. The less money Zimmer Corporation had, the more anxious suppliers were to get their hands on their money.
Zimmer Corporation was exhausted as they floundered. Zimmer Corporation was on the verge of collapse.
Just because Jon held on did not mean everyone in the company was going to hold on with him.
Countless employees quit, including core senior executives. It left Zimmer Corporation with no one to implement their decisions and arrangements, making matters worse.
What was more terrifying was that shareholders quietly began to sell their shares.
It did not matter if Zimmer Corporation could not pay. People would be willing to buy their shares as long as these shareholders were willing to sell.
As a result, a significant amount of the company’s shares were owned by people outside the company without Jon’s knowledge.
Jon raised money as favonovel.com dealt with the comments outside. He did not have the time or energy to pay attention to what was going on in the company.
Zimmer Corporation had the most attention within River City’s business circle. Many companies or affluent families in River City had their eyes on them. They remembered very well how Zimmer Corporation of River City had been on the rise in recent years.
With abundant funds and backed by a big shot in the army, you could say that they ruled River City. Encountering such sudden change, many people speculated about what happened.
It included the Quinn family of River City.
***
Old Madam Quinn’s residence.
The eldest son of the Quinn family, Samuel, and the rest of the Quinn family’s core members once again. gathered there.
Everyone had different expressions and ideas as they heard what had happened in Zimmer Corporation in the past two days.
Being core members of the Quinn family, they knew a lot about business. The situation Zimmer Corporation faced was anything but normal.
Someone must be going after Zimmer Corporation.
“Who do you think would dare do that to Zimmer Corporation?”
“Isn’t Zimmer Corporation backed by a big shot in the army? How dare anyone do this to them?”
“Could Zimmer Corporation has fallen out with that big shot?”
“Or it could be Reach For Will Group. Only Reach For Will Group has the motive and this much power.”
Everyone discussed as they stated their speculation.
Someone thought something was wrong with Zimmer Corporation’s relationship with Jason.
Someone thought Reach For Will Group did all this.
After all, Reach For Will Group had shown their hostility to the Quinn family and the Zimmer family since their establishment some time ago.
Reach For Will Group accepted partnerships from any company. However, they refused to partner with the Quinn family and the Zimmer family without hesitation.
A series of events that happened later confirmed that Reach For Will Group had some unknown grudge against the Quinn family and the Zimmer family.
What Zimmer Corporation was going through probably had something to do with Reach For Will Group.
“I think all of those things you said are possible.” Samuel touched his chin and looked at the crowd with a frown.
“It could have been Reach For Will Group… However, Reach For Will Group can only do this if the Zimmer family has lost their connection to the army.”
“Reach For Will Group will never have dared to do this if Zimmer Corporation has the protection of the big shot in the army.”
Everyone nodded slightly when Samuel said this. Of course, they could figure out the twists and turns.
“So there are two possibilities…”
“One, Reach For Will Group has bribed Zimmer Corporation’s army connection.”
“Two, a powerful person simultaneously ordered the big shot in the army to work with Reach For Will Group to go after Zimmer Corporation…”
“Which one do you think it could be?” Samuel knocked on the table as favonovel.com looked at the crowd and asked.
“I think it’s the second one.” A middle-aged man answered after pondering about it.
