<h4>Chapter 111 – I just prepared a few items in advance for my grandson. What’s wrong with that? (1)</h4>


    Due to national policies over the past several decades, this coastal city had already be an economic center. Every day, in this prosperous city of concrete and steel that was over six thousand square kilometers, there werepanies being established andpanies going bankrupt.


    Amongst thesepanies, there was a star that had been gradually rising for the past five years. And now, it was on the brink of choosing between life or death.


    As someone that was a leader in the new Inte generation, Qin Shao had founded apany, Genesis, that had been at the top of its industry by a wide margin.


    But, at this moment, sitting in Genesis’s conference room, Qin Shao had a grave expression as he listened to shareholders debate.


    If it wasn’t for the recent financial downturn, hispany would have never fallen to the impasse of choosing between bankruptcy or being acquired.


    He could only watch as the people sent over by the Lu’spany destroyed all of his hard work in the past several years in their acquisition process.


    Qin Shao didn’t want to ept this, but it didn’t matter how unwilling he was. Right now, the only way hispany could survive was to be acquired by the Lu’spany.


    However Lu Beichuan was famous in the business world for being obstinate and tyrannical. One of the conditions for the acquisition was that Genesis’s technical staff would be reced by the Lu’spany’s employees.


    Qin Shao knew that Lu Beichuan didn’t trust them.


    Qin Shao had founded thispany with the support of the technical staff that made up Genesis’s core team. The acquisition of thepany meant that these people would beid off.


    Before it hade to this point, Qin Shao had asked himself. Would thepany have achieved what it did without these experienced people? No, it wouldn’t have. And so, he wasn’t shameless enough to keep hispany and give up on these people that had worked with him to create thispany.


    He had been able to drag things out for a while, but thepany’s shareholders were uneasy. During the past period, since thepany wasn’t able to get more funding, it was difficult to get back their momentum. This in turn triggered a cascade of money shortages, which led to an imminent crisis in financial credibility. Other than the Lu’spany, no one was willing to ept Genesis. The acquisition process had already reached the point where the Lu’spany’swyers were doing their due diligence. However, Qin Shao still hesitated on making a decision.


    “CEO Qing, other than being acquired by the Lu’spany, I don’t think there’s a way for Genesis to recover. We’re already drawn the limit of our credit line at the bank, and no other bank will guarantee us. There’s no otherpany that will provide funding. If you don’t make a decision now, then thepany will go bankrupt!”


    “Exactly! And, I think thepany will develop even better after being acquired by the Lu’spany!”


    “Yeah, no otherpany is willing to acquire Genesis. The only way to avoid bankruptcy is to choose the Lu’spany.”


    It was hard to tell what Qin Shao was thinking from his expression.


    The boss of the core technology team, who had been with him when he created thispany, had been silently sitting in the conference room.


    If he wanted hispany to continue existing, he would have to give up on its employees. On one side, there was thepany. On the other side, there were his old friends. Qin Shao was trapped between a rock and a hard ce.


    “I’ll go look for Lu Beichuan to discuss again. Let’s end the meeting here.”


    Actually, anything that had to be discussed was already discussed. The other side had power and money. The Lu’spany’s attitude was unyielding with no margin for negotiation. They were taking the position of forcing them to sell.


    Right after Qin Shao stood up, someone stopped him and handed him a resignation letter. “CEO Qin, this is my resignation letter.”
