Special Agent’s Rebirth: The Almighty Goddess of Quick Transmigration - Chapter 317

After being hung up on by Dyce, Gao Heng was still completely bewildered.

He was currently at the temporary studio he and Uncle Ye had set up. Beside him were more than ten talented technicians who had originally followed him from the Ye Corporation.

Seeing Gao Heng like this, they couldn’t help but feel uneasy. “Mr. Gao, did Mr. Dyce say what exactly is going on?”

They all admired Gao Heng immensely, which was why they had followed him without hesitation to start this venture.

Gao Heng’s talent in this field was undoubtedly at the forefront of the world; they had no doubts about his capabilities.

But the afternoon’s sales had truly been a blow.

Especially for Uncle Ye. He had invested the majority of his funds into this project, banking on a single success to turn everything around.

“Brother-in-law, there aren’t any problems, are there?” Uncle Ye joked.

Of course, he believed wholeheartedly that Gao Heng’s technology couldn’t possibly be the issue, but his question still carried a hint of uncertainty.

An inexplicable sense of foreboding nagged at him.

Gao Heng’s lips twitched, but he failed to force a smile. “Mr. Dyce said I offended that ‘Y’ person… but… but I don’t even know them!”

Although he could be a bit arrogant, he always knew his place. He would never knowingly provoke someone he shouldn’t.

The entire office fell into a collective silence at Gao Heng’s words. Everyone worked in IT, and by now, who hadn’t heard of this ‘Y’? Their near-perverse way of thinking had left many established IT veterans in awe.

Gao Heng had even specifically downloaded the four-dimensional model ‘Y’ had publicly released on the external network.

He had to admit, it was something that broke the existing technological framework of this world.

Inspired by this, Gao Heng, along with the team who had left the Ye Corporation, had successfully developed the 3D system and even made new breakthroughs.

Hearing this news from Gao Heng, Uncle Ye felt all the strength drain from his body.

He had invested all his available capital into this new technology, even mortgaging most of his assets to the bank for loans, pouring in several hundred million.

He had even registered a new company.

He hadn’t been able to sleep since last night, eagerly awaiting today’s stock surge for his newly registered company.

Now, that anticipation was completely gone. He hurriedly pulled out his phone and opened the stock market app.

Seeing the Ye Corporation’s name at the top, highlighted in red, his eyes stung slightly.

He then directly searched for his own company’s stock code.

When he saw it had hit the limit-down line, he was at a complete loss for how to react.

It couldn’t be helped. The difference between the Orange Phone and the E-Phone was too vast. Coupled with the E-Phone’s highly successful hunger marketing strategy, with hundreds of thousands of people online waiting for next month’s restock and others counting down the days until the next pre-sale batch…

“How can this be?” Uncle Ye scrolled through the online news and comments, his eyes hurting from what he read. “Holographic projection? That’s impossible!”

He had poached all the technical talent from the Ye Corporation! How could they have developed such a model?!

Regardless, he knew his entire investment had just gone down the drain.

“Come back quickly,” Uncle Ye hadn’t even finished his thought when his wife called, her voice panicked. “The bank people are here to repossess our villa! They’re forcing me and Jiajia out right now! What do we do? What have you done?”

He hadn’t expected the bank to get the news so quickly.

His life hadn’t been exactly smooth sailing, but he had never encountered a setback like this.

Uncle Ye took a deep breath, his voice trembling. “Ye Chen… It’s all Ye Chen. I never expected him to be even more cunning than his sister! The news is all reporting him as a business prodigy now, saying several business elites stayed with the Ye Corporation just for him!” He pressed his lips together, then said firmly, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle this.”

Meanwhile, Ye Chen was in a meeting with a group of people.

Ye Shaohua sat to his left.

In the past, there would definitely not have been a seat for her in company meetings. She would either be at the far end of the table or off in the corner by the coffee machine, playing on her phone.

Even now, with a seat arranged for her by the company, she clearly wasn’t very interested in listening.

While others were deep in discussion, she, though not looking at her phone, was just casually fiddling with a pen in her hand, her gaze somewhat unfocused.

It was obvious she wasn’t paying close attention.

But whenever a senior executive directed a question her way, she could answer promptly and accurately, leaving the Ye Corporation management in awe.

This pair of siblings was terrifying, each in their own way.

Ye Chen’s talent in business was undeniable. The Ye Corporation was now completely dependent on him. Every decision and plan he made pushed the company to its maximum potential, his vision remarkably long-term.

Without him, who knew what state the Ye Corporation would be in now? The morale would have certainly collapsed.

Even Senior Analyst Li had directly chosen to stay with the Ye Corporation as their long-term economic advisor.

As for Ye Shaohua, while she didn’t understand management, half the reason the Ye Corporation and the E-Phone had reached their current success was due to Ye Chen’s courageous and strategic decisions, and the other half was due to her frightening talent in IT.

These two siblings were indispensable.

After the meeting, Ye Chen received a phone call. Once he hung up, he let out a cold laugh.

“What’s wrong?” Senior Analyst Li noticed his strange expression.

Ye Chen, holding documents, replied nonchalantly, “Nothing much. It’s just my dear uncle. He wants to return to the Ye Corporation. And he wants me to lend him a hundred million.”

Senior Analyst Li was stunned, having probably never encountered someone so shameless. “Your uncle must be desperate, hounded by loan sharks now. But… are you really not going to help him?”

Ye Chen might seem unreliable on the surface.

But after working closely with him for over a month, Analyst Li knew the young man was inherently kind-hearted.

He had thought the boy might soften and relent.

“Help him?” The mention of it made fury surge in Ye Chen’s eyes. “I’m already restraining myself from kicking him while he’s down!”

Analyst Li had only asked casually and was taken aback by the intensity of Ye Chen’s reaction.

“My sister really liked oil painting,” Ye Chen thought back to what he had recently learned from Ning Yunshu. He pulled a cigarette from his pocket. Even though several days had passed, the memory still infuriated him. “That bastard Ye’s daughter also liked oil painting. When Master Lin came to select a student, that bastard Ye casually mentioned to my sister that Ye Jia had a competitive nature. My sister, even though she was a bit of a troublemaker, knew her place living under someone else’s roof. And she genuinely cared for Ye Jia back then. So she came back and told me she didn’t like oil painting anymore.”

He had only found this out after discovering she had painted at Ning Yunshu’s place. He had pressed her until she told him the truth.

He knew life for him and his sister wouldn’t be the same after their parents died.

But he never imagined his sister had been hiding this in her heart all along.

Remembering how Ye Jia always brought up Master Lin whenever they visited Uncle Ye’s house, he felt an urge to find Ye Jia and give her a sound thrashing right then and there!

And forget anyone who said you shouldn’t hit women!

“That damn bastard Ye!” Ye Chen’s hand trembled slightly as he tried to light his cigarette.

Analyst Li clearly hadn’t expected there to be such a backstory.

He was momentarily speechless.

Ye Chen finally managed to light his cigarette but was still fuming. Spotting a familiar figure approaching from the corner of his eye, and noticing there was no ashtray nearby, he immediately stubbed the cigarette out on the floor and kicked it towards Analyst Li.

“Analyst Li, I’ve told you before, don’t smoke around me. You’re a bad influence.”

Analyst Li: “…”

Any trace of sympathy he felt vanished instantly due to Ye Chen’s action.

“Sis, I’m heading out with Analyst Li to discuss a project,” Ye Chen said, making a quick exit with Analyst Li in tow.

Ye Shaohua watched the cleaning staff sweep up the cigarette butt and raised an eyebrow.

She saw right through Ye Chen’s little act, but in the end, she didn’t say anything about it.

She spent the afternoon in the Ye Corporation’s technical department.

Until a senior executive rushed in frantically.

“Miss! It’s terrible! We’ve lost contact with the Young Master and Analyst Li! The joint venture partners are waiting in the office right now! What should we do?” Ye Chen’s second assistant was frantic with worry.

Ye Shaohua’s fingers paused on the keyboard. She set aside her usual casual demeanor. “What happened? Explain it to me slowly.”

The situation was simple.

By now, practically everyone outside the company knew that the real decision-makers at the Ye Corporation were Ye Chen and Analyst Li.

Most major decisions rested with these two.

And this afternoon, they were supposed to be negotiating copyright issues with the National Technology Department.

This was the final step in the Ye Corporation’s development plan. If today’s negotiation failed, the Ye Corporation would certainly be blacklisted by the state.

And just at this critical moment, the key figures, Analyst Li and Ye Chen, had disappeared!

These two were genius-level figures in management and strategy. The Ye Corporation hadn’t yet recruited significant new talent, and most of the board members were passive investors who didn’t handle operations. With those two gone, the senior management instantly descended into chaos.

They had expected Ye Shaohua to be the most panicked, but instead, she turned out to be the calmest person present.

She looked at the assistant and said calmly, “To the office.”

“Ah… What are you going to do in the office?” the senior executive asked, confused.

Ye Shaohua pushed open the door of the tech department and walked out. “To negotiate.”

They had tried to keep the disappearance of Ye Chen and Analyst Li under wraps, but the news was leaked by someone with an agenda.

Uncle Ye stared at the foreclosure notice plastered on his villa, a vicious glint flashing in his eyes.

His thinking was simple: the Ye Corporation clearly had the ability to help him now but refused to lift a finger.

Even if he couldn’t truly harm the Ye Corporation, he could still cause them some trouble.

“Dad, the Ye Corporation’s official Weibo says they’ve already partnered with the National Bureau,” Ye Jia said, having listened to her father’s plan. She had been waiting for bad news about the Ye Corporation, but instead stumbled upon this post.

Uncle Ye glanced at it and sneered. “That’s just a smokescreen from the Ye Corporation. They must be panicking inside. I’ve looked into the Ye Corporation; the only ones with any real decision-making power are Analyst Li and Ye Chen! Just wait, the Ye Corporation’s stock will definitely plummet tomorrow!”

Hearing her father’s words, Ye Jia felt a bit more balanced.

Uncle Ye’s plan was simply to cause trouble for the Ye Corporation, to make them offend the National Bureau.

But he didn’t know that the person with the real decision-making power in the Ye Corporation was actually Ye Shaohua!
