<h4>Chapter 1734: Jose VS Wen Xinya</h4>


    News of T-K Group’s vition of advertising regtions and their illegal copying of a product recipe spread like wildfire. The consumers were utterly incensed.


    A world-renowned major corporation making use of false advertising to cheat consumers, as well as illegally copying anotherpany’s Traditional Chinese Medicine health supplement recipe—it was aplete breach of ethics. Was this really a reputable global enterprise?


    T-K Group, including Jose, finally realized just how formidable the people of Country Z could be.


    “Miss Be, pleased to meet you!”


    In this meeting room, T-K Group’s representative, Jose, finally came face to face with his Country Z opponent, Be, for the first time.


    He looked at the masked Be and her hands ced atop the table. Thisdy was much younger than he imagined. He could hardly believe how young she was.


    “Pleased to meet you too, Mr. Jose!” Wen Xinya’s luscious red lips were exposed.


    It was T-K Group who had taken the initiative to call for today’s meeting. She didn’t reject it.


    T-K Group’s market in Country Z hadpletely copsed.


    Jose was wearing a ck suit with a silver-gray tie. He looked very somber. “Miss Be, T-K Group’s takeover n has been an utter failure. The Group will pull out of the Country Z market soon.”


    Yesterday, he received a call from headquarters decreeing that they were to pull out totally from the Country Z market.


    After receiving the decree, he had shut himself in his office the entire day.


    He sat in his chair silently contemting the whole time.


    He carefully thought through everything that had happened in this takeover battle, and finally realized that Be had been in control the entire time. She had lured him to the edge of the cliff step by step.


    “It was all within my forecasts!”


    Wen Xinya’s finger tapped gently against the table. Her tone was calm and neutral as she narrated the events.


    Her cid attitude was as a businesswoman should be. Stable, shrewd, magnanimous and calm. Jose felt immense pressure.


    It was a very scary pressure.


    Cool and collected, confident andposed. She was one to look out for.


    It was like during the entire takeover battle between T-K Group and Lanxin Company, you would never know what her next step would be. But as you fail again and again by her hand, you would realize that she had been bidding her time all this while, just waiting quietly for the right opportunity to strike. By then, there was nothing you could do but to just continue straight down the path to hell.


    You could rage all you want, but somehow, there was just no way you could escape from the palm of her hand...


    At first, you might feel you have lost for no good reason, but on further consideration, you would realize the defeat was deserved.


    He felt it was all veryughable.


    He had been in business management for over 20 years, probably even longer than she had been alive on this earth. His scorecard had been wless, something which he had been very proud of.


    But now, he was feeling such a powerful sense of suppression from this youngdy.


    “Actually, Mr. Jose must have realized the citizens of Country Z are not against takeovers. In fact, they are more tolerant of it than many other nations. To the citizens of Country Z, as long as it is a good product from a goodpany, they are willing to ept and try it out. It was T-K Group who wronged them. T-K Group wasn’t defeated by me or by Lanxin Company. You were defeated by the consumers.”


    Wen Xinya nced up at Jose.


    Her ck pupils were filled with profound and tranquil light.


    Jose’s mouth fell open, but nothing came out of his mouth.


    T-K Group had made three mistakes.


    Firstly, they held malicious intent toward the Country Z market. They had nned to swallow the entire market and leave no breathing space for the localpanies. This was a despicable and wicked move.


    Secondly, they developed a Traditional Chinese Medicine health supplement product in order to undercut Lanxin Company. They ended up losing their integrity as a world-renowned global corporation.


    Thirdly, theirpetitive tactics had been too aggressive, which resulted in them viting all sorts of regtions and losing the consumers’ trust.


    Wen Xinya said, “Country Z is arge and tolerant market, and capable of embracing any outsiders who wish to enter. Although many of our localpanies are unable topete on the global tform, we are not afraid of anypetition.”


    Jose agreed with her point. “You are right in saying that T-K Group’s takeover n was carried out in the wrong way. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have ended up like this.”


    Mei Shan Company had fierce determination, Ming Yuan had a kamikaze-style tenacity, NBJ had the courage to fight to the end, while Lanxin Company had the drive to win. How could such fearsome yers be afraid ofpetition?


    What theycked was time.


    The day woulde when they would ascend to the global stage.


    “The two people who caused your takeover n to fail—Luo Le and Xia Ruya—perhaps Mr. Jose might want to conduct a thorough investigation into these two. You will realize then just what kind of people they are.”


    Wen Xinya felt that this Jose guy wasn’t that detestable. That was why she had kindly offered this advice.


    “That was my oversight.”


    Jose was stunned. Chu was the one who had introduced Xia Ruya to him. He had checked into her background but didn’t dig too deeply.


    Meanwhile, Luo Le’s background had been provided by Xia Ruya. He had only quickly perused the information.


    After T-K Group’s takeover n failed, Luo Le had gone missing and Xia Ruya was non-contactable. He had been in a muddle and overlooked this issue.


    Wen Xinya leaned back against her chair. She kept silent, indicating that their private chat was over.


    Jose spent some time collecting his thoughts before speaking again. “Miss Be, I asked you here today to inform you of a decision by the board of directors of T-K Group’s headquarters in Country M. They are sincerely offering to withdraw from Country Z and topensate Lanxin Company for all their losses. In return, we hope that you can rescind thewsuit against the Group.”


    With that, he ced the contract drawn by the board of directors in front of her.


    He had looked through the contract and the terms were extremely generous. Before meeting Be, Jose believed that most people would be tempted after reading the terms. But now that he had met her, he felt that T-K Group was just heaping more disgrace upon themselves by offering this contract.


    Wen Xinya just gave a quick nce. “I won’t be looking at the contract. I already told the media that we will pursue the illegal copying matter right to the end. Those... were not just empty words. It’s not just me, everyone in Lanxin Company will not be tempted by any incentives.”


    She had already expected T-K Group to offer a settlement.


    After all, T-K Group would truly be finished if they really went to court with Lanxin Company.


    Jose was exasperated. “Miss Be, are you truly that confident of winning this court case? If I can be frank, Lanxin Company will not be unable to withstand the pressures of fighting a legal case against a world-renowned international corporation.”


    Lanxin Company would probably be destroyed if they lost thiswsuit.


    Wen Xinya replied mildly, “There is no need for Mr. Jose to worry about this.”


    Jose wanted to continue persuading her but ended up shutting his mouth. Some people possessed an unshakable resolve, and Be was clearly such a person.
