Chapter 23: Chapter 23 A Brilliant Hunter Often Appears as a Prey
"Fuck me, CEO Xu. Is there any truth that comes out of your mouth?"
"Look at his dejected look. Dr. Chen won another round."
"I'm new here. What happened?"
"Brother, have you bought real estate in Dingsheng Group recently? If you bought an off-plan house, pray for good luck."
"I understand why CEO Xu faked his liver cancer. If he went abroad normally, the financial reporters would definitely follow him closely. Only by using the excuse of cancer treatment could he get rid of those paparazzi."
"Oi, Xu! Refund my money!" Updated from nov𝒆lbIn.(c)om
The netizens who had been watching the entire consultation knew what was going on.
Just as one of the comments said, there was not a single morsel of truth that came from CEO Xu's mouth.
He kept saying that his foreign properties were doing well.
In reality, they were already in trouble.
Otherwise, Chen Yu wouldn't have mentioned the word "lawsuit".
CEO Xu used himself as teaching material for the viewers.
He personally performed the very act of shooting oneself in the foot.
He tried to take advantage of Chen Yu's godlike predictions and use that as an excuse to sell his problematic land.
Unfortunately, he had failed.
After that, Chen Yu pointed out that CEO Xu owed the bank a large sum of money with massive monthly interest.
He needed to withdraw funds from abroad to settle these accounts.
This capital chain would most likely be broken now that his foreign properties were in trouble.
Thus, the collapse of his company was just a matter of time.
"Dr. Chen, can you be more detailed? What legal problems did CEO Xu encounter with his overseas business?"
Concerned that Chen Yu would miss his comment, the viewer paid for a special comment to appear on his screen.
"Tax evasion."
"Not just that," Chen Yu sneered. "Tax evasion in the land of the free."
"No wonder. Tax evasion is a serious crime in that country."
"No wonder CEO Xu needs to go abroad personally to deal with it. If he doesn't go now, his properties will be seized."
"CEO Xu is blind. If he was planning to do property investment overseas in the first place, he should at least understand the laws and regulations first."
"To dare to evade taxes in the land of the free, CEO Xu is simply dancing on a tightrope."
Some viewers studying or living in the land of the free sent out these comments.
Evading taxes was not only a serious crime in that country but also heavily fined if caught.
The amount of the fine was not capped.
The IRS was known to bulldoze anyone who stood in their way.
Evading taxes right under their noses was essentially preparing to go bankrupt and spend the rest of their lives in prison.
"Dr. Chen, I was wrong. I shouldn't have used you, and I shouldn't have suspected you!"
CEO Xu forced himself to be alert as he humbly apologized to Chen Yu.
"As long as you can help me through this crisis, I can pay you."
"I'll pay you money you won't be able to use up in a few lifetimes."
"If you don't want money, I can also give you my company shares!"
Chen Yu's revelations were like invisible hands, stripping off CEO Xu's disguise cleanly.
He was terrified now.
"Do you still think you don't have misanthropy?"
Chen Yu asked.
"Yes. I have misanthropy."
CEO Xu closed his eyes in pain.
He wouldn't be able to live with himself if he couldn't get through this crisis.
"Speaking the truth is a must for a patient. You can't hide your illness from the doctor."
"Of course." Chen Yu nodded and continued, "It's actually not difficult to cure your misanthropy."
"Foreign tax lawsuits are bound to fail. Instead of struggling in vain, you might as well cut it off cleanly."
"Give up all your foreign assets."
CEO Xu's eyes widened when he heard that, suspecting he had heard it wrong.
Was Chen Yu helping him think of a solution or helping him on his way to the River Styx?
CEO Xu had spent four to five billion yuan to purchase these properties, and Chen Yu suggested he give them up completely.
Of course, Chen Yu wouldn't feel the pain he felt.
Looking through CEO Xu's thoughts, Chen Yu said unhurriedly, "Abandoning all your assets overseas is the first step to curing your illness."
"After that, sell off all your businesses and properties except for that piece of land to gather enough funds to repay your bank loan."
"Enough!"
CEO Xu rudely interrupted Chen Yu angrily. "Do you know what you're saying? Are you helping me or helping me to an early grave?"
"I spent five billion to buy those foreign properties."
"My domestic businesses are also worth billions. You want me to abandon them all with a single word from you?"
"What's the difference between this and bankruptcy?"
Hearing this, Chen Yu neither interrupted CEO Xu nor got angry.
He only replied casually, "Going bankrupt means you have nothing and are heavily in debt."
"The treatment plan I recommended will not only pay off all of your debts but will also keep you with a piece of land worth three billion yuan."
To CEO Xu, Chen Yu's words were simply nonsense.
"There is an ancient tomb underground, so that piece of land is equivalent to a wasteland."
"Not necessarily."
Chen Yu answered cryptically.
CEO Xu's expression gradually became ferocious on the other side of the screen.
"Chen, don't think you can mock me just because you have some ability!"
"I, Xu Zhongyuan, have been in the business world for over 30 years and have encountered all kinds of difficulties!"
"Even if you don't help me, I can still get through it myself."
Chen Yu shook his head.
In the eyes of others, the most rational people in this world were businessmen.
However, they were unaware that businessmen only stay rational when not in danger.
Once a crisis befell them, they would become crazier than anyone else.
"That piece of land is your only chance to make a comeback."
Thinking that saving a life was better than nothing, Chen Yu decided to give CEO Xu another chance.
"That wasteland is my only chance. Do you think I'll believe you?"
In his office, phone calls rang one after another.
The secretary outside the door kept reporting to him about the news.
CEO Xu was finished.
The banks and various business partners had already seen the livestream.
He had planned to use the piece of land on Qinglong Mountain to recover his funds and get over this crisis.
Who would have thought?
The land he had painstakingly obtained was a piece of wasteland that could not be developed.
An old friend whom he treated as a scapegoat must also have seen this livestream.
He would definitely not buy the land from him now.
"There's no ancient tomb under that piece of land near Qinglong Mountain," Chen Yu explained. "Your friend duped you."
"That is a treasured land. Not only did you take a fancy to it, but your friend has also been drooling over it."
"Unfortunately, you were more skilled in bidding for it. You opened up all your connections and raised a large amount of funds to take away this precious land from him."
"Your friend didn't give up after you beat him to it. Instead, he started to think of another way."
"He bribed your most trusted Feng Shui Master and the manager of the land project department."
"That project manager is responsible for burying those funerary objects under there."
"The Feng Shui Master will then point out that this place is a bad place with an ancient tomb hidden below."
"As for your friend, he made an excuse and visited you. He pretended to be obsessed with the land and guided you to try scamming him."
"He never had to pretend to be obsessed in the first place. He's been drooling over this plot of land since the beginning."
"He knows what kind of person you are and is confident he can guide your thinking."
CEO Xu's expression went blank as a saying appeared in his mind.
A brilliant hunter would often appear as prey.
