I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack Novel - Chapter 370
370 Misjudgment?
Once Shen Yuansong lost his temper, even though Shen Zhong and Shen Chong were both currently at the company, they had to quickly rush back.
The moment they entered Shen Yuansong’s room, a teacup came flying over.
Shen Chong immediately dodged and that teacup slammed into Shen Zhong.
As a result, Shen Zhong’s western suit was instantly drenched by the tea. It was so hot that he jumped on the spot, but he forcibly endured the pain and asked, “Uncle, what’s wrong?”
!!
Shen Chong also spoke up immediately, “Yeah. Uncle, what did my elder brother do that caused you to be so angry?”
Shen Zhong immediately shot a harsh glare at Shen Chong.
His second brother would always push the responsibility onto him.
Shen Yuansong stared at his two nephews.
One looked honest and foolish. But in truth, he was stupid and didn’t know how to adapt.
The other always had a smile on his face, but he was a smiling tiger with schemes in his heart.
In this generation, the Shen Family only had the two of them.
Shen Yuansong wasn’t married and only had a younger brother. Unluckily, his younger brother only had these two children.
This was the reason why Shen Yuansong didn’t look for other successors although Shen Zhong’s capabilities weren’t good enough. He hoped to use Shen Chong to force Shen Zhong’s potential out, so Shen Zhong could be smarter.
Or if he really didn’t have a choice in the end, he would simply choose Shen Chong.
However, at this moment, he actually felt an intense sense of defeat when he stared at this pair of brothers before him.
The Shen Family had always been righteous and fair. How the hell did such a prestigious family nurture these two juniors?
Shen Wanying had kept making drama in the Bai Family and even dared to find someone to fake being the ‘second uncle’. This was simply too audacious.
As for these brothers, their heart states were too narrow, and they only had profits in their eyes. They didn’t care about the country at all.
If they had the slightest patriotism, they wouldn’t ignore the Chu Corporation’s raw materials and even make such a public statement!
Shen Yuansong stared at them and asked, “Don’t you guys know that I’ve been working hard to research the gene-deficient agent P+ medicine? As long as some medical schools wanted to do research on this project, I would always invest in them?”
The brothers exchanged a glance. The two of them naturally knew about this.
When their uncle called them to come home, they already knew what was going on.
So, upon hearing his words, Shen Zhong immediately spoke, “Uncle, it’s not like we don’t want to cooperate with the Chu Corporation. The truth is that they are being too much of a bully. Chu Cichen actually wants 10x the market price. You should know that this medicine might seem profitable, but its profit margin is actually not that much. If the raw material cost increases by 10x, even if we manage to produce the special medicine, does that mean we have to suffer financial losses to sell them? Or should we increase the price that we charge the patients?”
Shen Yuansong angrily replied, “Even if that’s the case, don’t you guys care about the lives of the thousands of patients?”
Shen Chong immediately added, “Of course, we care. Uncle, we made that public statement because we want to use public opinion to increase the pressure on the Chu Corporation, so they will sell us the raw materials at the normal market price. The two of us tried the ‘good cop, bad cop’ routine. And also, we are the only company that can purchase the Chu Corporation’s materials, so it is useless even if they refused our conditions. They spent so much on research and development and can’t possibly watch the raw materials rot away, right?”
Shen Zhong nodded in agreement. “Correct, we can’t simply allow them to profit like that. They harmed Wanying and if we really cooperated with them according to their nonsensical terms, that would be too dense!”
There was undisguised disappointment in Shen Yuansong’s eyes.
Shen Zhong still allowed his emotions to control him although thousands of lives were hanging by a thread.
However, Shen Yuansong wouldn’t blindly believe their words. He looked at Shen Zhong and said, “Make a call to Chu Cichen right now. No matter what, we have to purchase their raw materials. Also, tell them we are willing to have long-term cooperation with them. Call him right now before my eyes!”
As these words rang out, Shen Zhong’s gaze flashed.
After seeing his appearance, Shen Yuansong immediately understood that what they had told him earlier was not the whole truth.
Honestly speaking, Shen Yuansong was actually quite fond of Chu Cichen.
The latter was still young but had the motivation and ability to do great things. Shen Yuansong could also tell that Chu Cichen’s heart could contain the world. If Chu Cichen married a granddaughter of the Shen Family, it would actually be a pretty good choice to let Chu Cichen manage the Shen Family in the future.
Sadly, Chu Cichen was already engaged.
As he was contemplating, Shen Zhong’s call connected. He glanced at Shen Yuansong before inhaling deeply. “CEO Chu, I’m sure you have seen the public statement. This matter concerns the life of thousands of patients. I think we should negotiate this properly and we can discuss the pricing…”
Before he could finish his words, Chu Cichen coldly interrupted. “No need, I’m not going to sell the raw materials anymore.”
After that, he hung up the phone.
Shen Zhong started slightly. He then lifted his head and looked at Shen Yuansong.
Shen Yuansong was staring at him. “Make the call again!”
It must be because Shen Zhong’s tone of voice was too unpleasant and it irked Chu Cichen.
Shen Zhong had no choice but to call again. “How about 10x the market price?”
“Not selling.”
After the concise words, Chu Cichen hung up again.
Shen Zhong endured the pressure from Shen Yuansong and made the call again. However, his number was already blocked.
Shen Zhong. “…”
He glared at his phone in rage. “He really doesn’t know the immensity of heavens and earth. He actually dares to hang up on me?”
Shen Chong then sighed and didn’t forget to shoot Shen Zhong verbally at this moment. “Big brother, the way you spoke was too rude. Let me give it a try.”
After saying that, he called Chu Cichen.
Sadly, after two seconds, his phone call got cut off. When he tried again, he discovered that Chu Cichen had also blocked him.
Shen Chong. “!!”
He pursed his lips and suppressed the discomfort in his heart. “This Chu Cichen is too young and emotional! Uncle, you saw what happened. Right now, it is them who refuse to negotiate with us. My elder brother and I have tried our best.”
Shen Yuansong’s expression tensed as his gaze swept past his two nephews. He was very sure that they must have insulted Chu Cichen first.
He angrily scolded, “Scram.”
After the two of them left, Shen Yuansong sat on the sofa, and his gaze stared into the distance with hesitation. His heart was filled with indescribable sorrow and disappointment.
The butler asked, “Sir, what should we do?”
Shen Yuansong loosened his collar and lay on the sofa before sighing. “I understand the two of them too well, so I won’t find it strange no matter what they do. It was just that I thought Chu Cichen was someone with a conscience… But now that thousands of patients are in need of the medicine, he actually lets his emotions control him. Businessmen nowadays only have their minds on profit. I thought he was different…but I think I misjudged him.”
The butler sighed. “Nowadays, people are growing increasingly selfish.”
Hearing this, Shen Yuansong lowered his eyelids and sighed silently. “The Shen Family has no worthy successor!”
The butler couldn’t help but add, “How good would it be if you have children.”
Shen Yuansong didn’t make any rebuttals this time.
It was unknown how long had passed before Yun Yiheng arrived.
After looking at him, Shen Yuansong suddenly stood up. “Little Friend Yun, I wonder if you can bring me to the Chu Family for a visit?”
For the sake of thousands of lives, Shen Yuansong decided to go all out and show his face to beg the Chu Family for help!
