Chapter 590: The Fall of the Ma Family
Ma Qianqiu instantly fell to rock bottom. He knew the Ma Family was finished, just based on this contract, it could destroy the Ma Family. Even though he relied on the Ma Family’s substantial financial support, he still couldn’t mobilize such a large amount of funds to cover this huge loan in a short time. Moreover, he was worried about hacker attacks. If they targeted the Ma Family, then the active funds in the company’s account might mysteriously disappear, and this was the most deadly threat.As a business tycoon, applying for a bank loan would generally simplify the otherwise complex procedures.
If he asked for a five million loan, the bank might beg him to take out fifty million, or even more.
So, he wasn’t surprised at all that Ye Fan could so quickly secure this huge bank loan.
At this point, saying more was pointless. Ma Qianqiu even had thoughts of dying; the blow was enough to send him into the abyss, never to recover, and to give the Ma Family not the slightest chance to rise again.
Now the problem arose. Ye Fan came to negotiate with him, sitting there calmly, unshakable as if nothing could phase him, making one grit their teeth in anger. Ma Qianqiu was baffled, secretly grumbling: "Since you’re negotiating with me, then present your terms. You’re not saying a word, what is the meaning of this?"
Actually, Ye Fan was doing this intentionally, which was to place the choice in Ma Qianqiu’s hands. Now, Ma Qianqiu was walking on thin ice, so he just had to wait for Ma Qianqiu to make his own decision. Moreover, Ye Fan still had an ace up his sleeve that he hadn’t played yet.
Ma Qianqiu was very aware of the current situation. Ye Fan’s silence was the most deadly part. If Ye Fan proposed terms, then he could negotiate. But Ye Fan kept silent, forcing him to make the decision, and this was most deadly.
If he had been in the position of Chu Group, he certainly wouldn’t show mercy. Besides, he had long known that Ye Fan was not the kind-hearted sort, so how should he choose when there were so many complicated relationships involved?
Ma Qianqiu sadly realized that he had no say in front of Ye Fan.
Rather than a negotiation, it was already presenting a choice—one where he certainly didn’t want to compromise.
If the Ma Family Business fell, he would be the sinner of the Ma Family, everything would be over, which was the outcome he didn’t want to see.
But in the face of life and death, he had no choice but to make some decisions.
y-five percent of Ma Family’s shares and all its subsidiaries were now under Chu Group’s control.
Ma Qianqiu could only comply. That five percent of shares was enough to allow the Ma Family to eke out a living. It’s no exaggeration to say that Chu Group was quite generous. Even one percent of shares could make the Ma Family prosper, not to mention five percent. If he had won, he would have consumed the Chu Group, leaving not even a bone behind.
After completing all procedures, Ma Qianqiu’s dim gaze flickered with complex emotions as he said to Ye Fan, "Now my Ma Family is nearly gone in name. I no longer harbor any illusions, being alive, preserving the Ma Family’s life is enough reason for satisfaction."
After a brief pause, he reminded, "The strong from the five major families have united to attack Chu Group, you better hurry over, hope to minimize losses."
"You old fool, why didn’t you say it sooner?" Qiu Wen was enraged.
"If you’re smart, you know what to do." Ye Fan stared at Ma Qianqiu and said, while a heavy worry arose in his heart. Calling out to Qiu Wen, he said, "Let’s go, return."
