Chapter 1898 Common Enemy

In a private manor in the foggy city, Jing Bian stood respectfully in front of Myron, the chairman of the Grey Group, like a child who had made a mistake, waiting to be educated by his parents or teacher.

Gray Group is one of the companies under the name of the Butt family.

Mellen is the fourth-generation heir of the Bute family. He successfully inherited the title and became a duke three years ago.

Jingbian is the CEO of Grey Group and the person in charge designated by Myron.

Besides him, there was also Stotch standing next to him.

Stotchi lowered his head, not daring to raise it, let alone look Mellen in the eye.

As the president of Grey Group in Asia, he completely put away all his arrogance in front of Myron.

Myron's face looked a little ugly.

What Jingbian came to report made him furious.

The ground was covered with broken glass, stationery, folders, etc. It was a mess.

The reason was that Jingbian came to report that the negotiations with Ono Pharmaceutical of J Country had reached a deadlock and could not be successfully concluded.

Ono Pharmaceutical has always been an overseas pharmaceutical company that Myron has been thinking about and wants to completely take over.

The reason is very simple, that is, "Xiaoye Xuekang" is indeed very advanced in this field.

Even the old European pharmaceutical companies cannot produce products that match it.

The current industrialized environment has led to an increasing number of people suffering from blood diseases, and they are becoming younger and younger.

Therefore, he was very optimistic about the future market of "Xiaoye Xuekang" and gave a death order to Jingbian, requiring him to take it over completely.

He originally thought that with the strength and international influence of the Grey Group, it would be easy to take over Ono Pharmaceutical.

However, unexpectedly, Ono Pharmaceutical's chairman, Yuta Suzuki, was very stubborn. Not only did he refuse to hand over the patent, he was even unwilling to sell the company's shares.

There was no other way, so Jingbian could only settle for the second best and take the agency approach to obtain the European sales rights of Ono Xuekang.

However, he pushed the price to the limit, which is why Xiaoye Xuekang has a large shipment volume but extremely low profits.

At the same time, Jingbian joined forces with Sanhe Group to put extreme pressure on Ono Pharmaceutical and wanted to acquire Ono through Sanhe.

They also took advantage of the discord between Suzuki Yuta and his son Suzuki Nokaze to steal the formula and gave it to Sanhe for production in order to verify the feasibility of the formula.

This will force Suzuki Yuta to succumb to Gray Group's acquisition plan.

All of this was in Jingbian's plan.

However, no one expected that the originally flawless plan would eventually fail completely due to the failure of "Sanhe Xuekang".

After nearly a year of hard work, things are back to square one.

What’s even worse is that at some point, Ono Pharmaceutical was suddenly acquired by an unknown Chinese company, which took full control of the company.

At this point, Jingbian had no choice but to send Shi Duochi to China to investigate and understand the Yan Group, and to make preliminary contact with the Yan Group to explore the possibility of cooperation.

According to Stotchi's investigation results, he learned that Yan Group was a new company that had been established for less than a year and had just been upgraded from a limited liability company to a group.

Jingbian invited the most authoritative appraisal agency in Europe to conduct a substantive evaluation of the Yan Group, and the final appraisal value was no less than 30 billion US dollars.

This made Jingbianshen arrogant again.

Upon learning that the chairman of Yan Group had come to Foggy City, he sent Deputy General Manager Levin to meet with Pi Yangyang, which led to the unpleasant dinner yesterday.

After listening to the reports from Jingbian and Stotchi, Myron became furious again.

He almost burst into curses, you two are useless, it’s ok that you can’t take over a J country company, but now you can’t even take over a newly established Chinese company?

"Get lost! Even if you can't take down 'Xiaoye Xuekang', you can't let the Taber Group take it!"

He finally roared and drove away Jingbian and Stotchi.

Just as he was furious, a voice came from outside: "Duke Mellen, what are you so angry about?"

Myron was furious and immediately turned around angrily, only to see Lacy standing at the door.

He could only suppress his anger and say, "Duke Lacy, how come you have time to come here?"

Both of them are top celebrities in the foggy city. They not only know each other, but also have close interactions.

People from the same circle naturally become friends easily.

What's more, the elders of the two families are old friends.

Lacy glanced at the mess on the ground and couldn't help but smile.

This Myron is just like his personality, he likes to smash things when he gets angry.

"Myron, I'm in the same boat as you. I'm worried about something and I'd like to have a few drinks with you. Is that okay?"

Lacy walked right in and sat down across from Myron.

Myron stood up, took a bottle of XO from the shelf, opened it directly, and poured two glasses.

"What's bothering you? Is it because of the assassin who showed up at your ball last night?"

He asked casually as he poured the wine.

Laxi's face twitched, and he said with resentment: "I arranged the assassin!"

"You arranged it?" Myron was stunned and looked at Lacy in surprise.

Lacy nodded and said, "I want to kill someone, an arrogant Chinese."

Myron curled his lips and smirked, saying with a hint of sarcasm, "I heard about this. Your fiancée, Bai Dai, is a friend of that Chinese man. Laxi, there's no need for you to kill someone for this, right?"

Lacy's face twisted again. He thought for a moment and said, "Don't talk about me first. What are you angry about?"

Myron said angrily, "My subordinates are incompetent and extremely stupid. I asked them to go to Country J to acquire a company, but not only did they fail, they also got involved with a Chinese company. Not only that, they went to negotiate with this Chinese company, but they didn't even take them seriously."

"It's just a Chinese company, how can it be so arrogant?" Lacy said in surprise, "Which company is it?"

"Yan Group is a small company that's only been established for less than a year," Mai Lun said disdainfully. "The chairman seems to be called Pi Yangyang, and he's currently in Fog City."

Laxi's eyes widened in surprise, and he said, "Wait, the chairman you just mentioned is called Pi Yangyang?"

Myron nodded and said, "Yes, his name is Pi Yangyang."

Lacy's face suddenly twisted, and he drank the glass of wine directly upside down, then put the glass down heavily.

Myron asked in surprise, "Do you know this person?"

Lacy gritted his teeth and said, "This is the man I want to kill!"

Myron was stunned, then burst into laughter. "What a coincidence? We're actually the same opponent?"

Lacy looked at Myron with a strange smile on his face, and said with a hint of gloating, "Myron, Delis has been with this Chinese guy these days, inseparable!"

Myron's smile froze instantly!

He was originally making fun of Laxi, but was attracted by that Chinese guy.

Unexpectedly, the woman he had always wanted to win was actually with that Chinese man.

Moreover, in Lacy's mouth, it seemed that Delis and the Chinese man were more problematic.

"Fake!"

The anger that had just dissipated suddenly reappeared.

Lacy smiled coldly and said unwillingly, "Myron, I really don't understand! With our status, position, and wealth, it's an honor for them to be able to fall in love with us! But they have always ignored us and are instead in a heated relationship with that Chinese man! According to the information my people sent back, that Chinese man moved directly into Bai Dai's house, and Delis is also living there!"

Myron stared at Lacy fiercely and said through gritted teeth, "Are you telling the truth?"

Lacy smiled bitterly, "Otherwise, why would I want to kill him?"

The corners of Myron's mouth twitched a few times, his eyes were cold, and he was speechless for a while.

"Myron, this Chinese guy, not only ruined the Grey Group's acquisition plan, but also my plan to take down Ramsden. Moreover, he also got his hands on our women. Therefore, this man must die!"

Lacy knew what Myron was thinking at the moment, so he deliberately fanned the flames.

Although both are dukes, Mellen's family background is more prominent and his strength is stronger.

Although Lacy is not inferior to Myron in terms of wealth, there is still a big gap between Lacy and Myron in terms of family background.

Myron is the fourth-generation heir of the Bute family and has close ties with the royal family of Country E.

One of his aunts, now a princess, has enormous influence.

So when Laxi knew that Pi Yangyang had also offended Mailen, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy, thinking that his chance for revenge had come!
