CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

Senior officials from the inspection bureau were gathered in the conference room, and the atmosphere was tense and heavy.

The bureau chief is under immense pressure and needs to make a wise yet difficult decision.

The meeting room was silent, except for a heavy sigh from the director of the inspection bureau: "Zhao Ruilong is a heinous criminal, but we cannot ignore Zhao Dong's power."

“Director, releasing Zhao Ruilong is a huge risk for us,” a deputy director in the seat said cautiously.

Zhu Jun turned to look at the deputy director: "What do you think we should do?"

After a moment's thought, the deputy director said, "Perhaps we can try to reach some kind of compromise with Zhao Dong that can satisfy his demands while also protecting the dignity of our inspection bureau."

Zhu Jun frowned. He knew it was a feasible plan, but its implementation was fraught with uncertainty.

"Okay, I will try my best to negotiate with Zhao Dong and see if we can find a solution that is acceptable to both sides."

After the meeting, the director immediately contacted Zhao Dong and Zhong Lao, hoping to meet them in person.

……

The release of Zhao Ruilong from the inspection bureau caused quite a stir in the business world.

Zhao Dong did not show much surprise upon learning the news.

After all, he was someone who supported Zhao Ruilong behind the scenes, and he had anticipated that the inspection bureau would make such a compromise.

At the same time, Professor Zhong also remembered to give Gao Qilin a gift.

Chapter 697 Game

He transferred one of the Zhao Group's properties to Gao Qilin, hoping to establish a closer business relationship with him.

When Gao Qilin and Zhao Ruilong arrived at the conference room, the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Gao Qilin stood in the center of the conference room, a smile on his face, his gaze confidently sweeping over his surroundings.

Zhao Ruilong sat on one side of the conference room, his eyes fierce and his face full of anger.

Gao Qilin confidently handed over the contract documents, his face beaming: "Mr. Zhao, it's been a long time since we've had the opportunity to sit down and talk like this."

Zhao Ruilong sneered and angrily took the contract documents: "Gao Qilin, do you think you can corner me with some petty tricks? Don't forget I have my own trump cards!"

Gao Qilin smiled calmly: "Mr. Zhao, I don't want to be your enemy. This contract is beneficial to both of us."

Zhao Ruilong ignored Gao Qilin's words and angrily slammed the contract documents in his hand onto the table: "Benefits? You think you can defeat me this way? Let me tell you, I will never show weakness!"

Gao Qilin maintained his smile: "Mr. Zhao, please calm down. Our current cooperation is an opportunity and a breakthrough for you."

Zhao Ruilong, still seething with anger, his eyes filled with hatred, said, "Gao Qilin, do you think you can win by forcing me to sign this contract? You're too naive! I'll make you pay!"

Gao Qilin smiled slightly: "Mr. Zhao, I am not forcing you. This is just an opportunity, and your choice is entirely up to you."

Zhao Ruilong gritted his teeth: "Fine! Since you're so confident, I'll sign this contract! But don't forget, I'll make you regret this!"

Gao Qilin nodded in satisfaction: "We are all elites in the business world, and defeating our competitors is our goal."

"I hope we can cooperate and achieve mutual benefit in the future."

The two signed the transfer agreement in a tense atmosphere.

After talking with Zhao Ruilong for a while, Gao Qilin left the meeting room.

Zhao Ruilong sat alone in the conference room, flames of anger burning in his eyes.

He clenched his fists and sneered, "Gao Qilin, do you think you can get rid of me like this? You're too young! I'll make you regret your choice today!"

Gao Qilin returned to his office at Qiangsheng Group.

He sat in his office chair, smiling as he looked at the neatly arranged pile of documents in front of him.

He was in high spirits and seemed full of confidence and anticipation for the future.

Just then, the phone rang.

Gao Qilin answered the phone, and Zhong Xiaoai's joyful voice came through: "Qilin, I have important news to tell you! Someone has reported Zhao Dong for suspected embezzlement and bribery, which may lead to his removal from office."

Upon hearing this news, Gao Qilin raised an eyebrow and smiled with satisfaction: "This is truly good news! If Zhao Dong steps down, it will pave the way for our future development."

A cheerful laugh came from the other end of the phone: "Yes, Qilin, you're amazing! You've done something that none of us could do before."

Gao Qilin smiled slightly: "It's not just my achievement, Xiao Ai, it's your hard work and support that has brought me to where I am today."

"Qilin, you're too kind!" Zhong Xiaoai said excitedly. "In any case, this news is good news for us. We have the opportunity to further develop the Qiangsheng Group."

After hearing Zhong Xiaoai's words, Gao Qilin revealed a smug smile: "Yes, Xiaoai, we must seize this opportunity to make Qiangsheng Group even stronger!"

After the phone call ended, Gao Qilin sat in his chair, lost in thought.

Two months later, Zhong Xiaoai walked into Gao Qilin's office again.

She looked happy, holding an important document in her hand.

"Qilin, I have some good news to tell you!" Zhong Xiaoai said joyfully.

Gao Qilin raised his eyes, looked at Zhong Xiaoai, and a smug smile appeared on his face.

"What good news?" he asked.

Zhong Xiaoai excitedly handed over the documents: "Zhao Dong has been locked up."

Gao Qilin took the document, raised his eyebrows slightly, and his smile became even brighter.

"That's great news! We've finally taught him a lesson," he said casually.

Over the years, Zhao Dong has been one of the people who have made Gao Qilin (De Zhao) unhappy.

He was known for abusing his power for personal gain, embezzling and accepting bribes, and had repeatedly tried to obstruct the development of the Qiangsheng Group.

Finally, someone reported Zhao Dong's problems, leading to his detention.

Zhong Xiaoai noticed the dissatisfaction and hatred that flashed across Gao Qilin's face, and felt a vague sense of worry: "Qilin, we...we will face many challenges. Zhao Ruilong and Ding Shilai will not let this go."

When Zhao Ruilong received the message from his secretary, he showed a look of horror.

He immediately realized that his father's imprisonment would have a huge impact on the Zhao Group, and he had to take immediate action to deal with the crisis.

Chapter 698 Defeat

Zhao Ruilong anxiously found Ding Shilai, and the two quickly sat down to talk.

Zhao Ruilong's expression was solemn, while Ding Shilai's face showed a hint of disdain.

What are we going to do? With Father imprisoned, our business will be severely affected.

"I need you to get rid of those businesses of ours as soon as possible," Zhao Ruilong said anxiously.

Ding Shilai sneered: "Don't worry, President. I expected this day to come, and I have made full preparations for it."

Ding Shilai took out a document and handed it to Zhao Ruilong.

The document details the industries that need to be abandoned and the specific operational steps.

"Take a look at this plan. I've already organized the relevant personnel and started taking action," Ding Shi said confidently.

Zhao Ruilong took the document and scanned every byte with his eyes.

His expression gradually calmed down, but a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"Good, you did a good job, 017. We must deal with this issue as soon as possible and not give Gao Qilin and Qiangsheng Group any opportunity to take advantage of us." Zhao Ruilong's tone was firm.

Ding Shilai nodded and said coldly, "I have notified the relevant personnel to put the plan into action. We will complete all preparations in the shortest possible time."

Zhao Ruilong stood up and strode out of the office.

Ding Shilai stayed where he was to continue arranging related matters.

Meanwhile, in the president's office of Qiangsheng Group, Gao Qilin was intently looking at the documents.

He knew this was just the beginning, and the challenges ahead might be even more difficult.

Zhong Xiaoai stood aside, watching Gao Qilin's changing expression.

She knew she played an important role in this battle and had to do her best to help Gao Qilin overcome the difficulties.

Gao Qilin put down the document, his brows furrowing slightly.

He knew that Zhao Ruilong would not let this go and would take any opportunity to deal with his Qiangsheng Group.

"We need to do more preparation. I want to make sure we have the upper hand in this competition," Gao Qilin said calmly.

Zhong Xiaoai nodded, her eyes filled with determination.

"I will do my best to help you. We will definitely be able to defeat Zhao Ruilong and Ding Shilai."

Ding Shilai quickly prepared to abandon his businesses, but he was never able to complete the task successfully.

The inspection bureau still found problems with these businesses, and Zhao Ruilong and Ding Shilai were both detained, leading to the collapse of the Zhao Group.

After Zhao Ruilong and Ding Shilai were arrested and imprisoned together, they faced the reality of losing everything.

They looked at each other silently, their eyes filled with despair and regret.

Zhao Ruilong clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Damn Gao Qilin! I will never let him get away with this!"

Ding Shilai silently lowered his head, his heart filled with endless regret.

A few days later, in the president's office of Qiangsheng Group, Gao Qilin sat quietly, pondering what to do next.

He had already received news of the Zhao Group's collapse and understood that this was just the beginning.
