“It’s a choice they made. Once Zimmer Corporation gets over this and they come begging us, I won’t even talk to them.” Jon was also furious to hear that.
Not long ago, the Quinn family had been trying to suck up to the Zimmer family. They even tried to tie the knot with the Zimmer family. However, now that Zimmer Corporation was out of power, they immediately changed their attitude, which disgusted Jon.
“Dad, forget about them. Finance just calculated. We need at least 150 million dollars to solve the current crisis…”
“150 million dollars would only help a little. What should we do to get the money?” Quill took a puff of his cigarette and was worried.
Tomorrow was the last day.
After tomorrow, River City banks, Zimmer Corporation’s stockholders would gather again to collect Zimmer Corporation’s debts. Zimmer Corporation would not be able to pay and would be called to River City court by the banks.
At that point, Zimmer Corporation’s only option might be to file for bankruptcy.
In that case, Zimmer Corporation would really be ruined.
“How about this… Try to get back the money we paid the original residents the other day.” Jon pondered for two seconds and made up his mind immediately.
It was not going to be easy to get the money, but favonovel.com had ways to do it, of course.
“Dad, we’ve already signed the contract. Could we do that?” Quill froze, thinking it was not feasible.
“We will go bankrupt if we can’t come up with the money. F*cking forget about developing the land!”
“Ask for the money back first and promise them more compensation afterward. Forget about anything else first. Let’s get over the current crisis.” Jon seemed to have lost his mind, favonovel.com had no other choice but this.
Quill knew that the money would be hard to get, but dared not go against Jon’s wishes, so favonovel.com could only work on it. However, these things would take some time, so it was not going to be completed today.
Jon pinned all his hopes on the money.
With that money back, Zimmer Corporation’s crisis could be resolved. If they failed, their fate was sealed.
They said nothing all night.
***
It was soon the next day.
After one night, everyone in River City knew about what happened to Zimmer Corporation. Today was Zimmer Corporation’s last day.
No one dared speculate whether they could raise enough money in one day to solve their crisis. Therefore, many people remained on the fence.
10 AM.
Zimmer Corporation building.
It was a bit quiet in the office today. The original hundreds of employees shrank by more than half after a day.
At a time like this, no one wanted to suffer with Jon. They were only employees. Seeing Zimmer Corporation fail, they would look for another boss, of course. It included some senior executives.
Jon did nothing to stop them. In his words, these people were nothing more than fence-sitters.
As soon as Zimmer Corporation got their hands on the money, they would be able to relax. Therefore, Jon had not panicked yet. However, favonovel.com soon changed his mind.
In the office.
Jon sat behind the desk with a cigar in his hand, calculating something. They spent a lot of money developing the land, which was why their money was tied up. They just needed to find a way to get the money back to fill the hole.
“It’s a good thing I held back a trick or two.” Jon chuckled with satisfaction in his eyes.
He did not go door-to-door to the residents.
Instead, favonovel.com paid the money to an official neighborhood committee representative, who also represented the River City government. They would save a lot less trouble in that way They could also recover the money more quickly.
“Hmph! Reach For Will Group is too inexperienced after all. You didn’t think I would do that, did you?”
Jon took a puff from his cigar, his face beaming with satisfaction.
Bang!
Just then, the office door was flung open.
Jon frowned slightly as Quill walked in with a panicked look. He was followed by many others.
Some senior executives negotiated the land compensation with him, people from the company’s legal department, and a few key shareholders.
Jon was slightly stunned to see this, forgetting to get angry with Quill.
“What happened?” Jon looked at Quill and asked.
“Dad, we… We’ve been cheated… Someone stole our money!” Quill’s words made Jon’s head buzz.
“What… What do you mean?” Jon widened his eyes and asked through clenched teeth.
Quill gasped but could not say anything. He had no idea that his first involvement with the company would lead favonovel.com to make such a huge mistake.
Some mistakes could be remedied. However, some mistakes were enough to push them into the abyss!
