The Crazy Son-In-Law

At the same time, in the Kumi Group headquarters building, the technical director’s office.

Lin Jiayin sat in her office chair, carefully examining the evaluation report specifically made for Starline Health, which had been sent over by the evaluation department. Her expression grew more serious than ever before.

She was deeply shocked. Once this product was widely released to the market, not only would Kumi Group’s health product market be affected, but it would also impact the entire cosmetics industry.

According to the evaluation report, the product was perfect, flawless, and had no side effects. It might be because it was a new company, and the product and sales system were not yet well-established. There was only one pricing option. However, even such a product was enough to threaten Kumi Group, and even shake the global health and cosmetics market.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

She knew how much business opportunity this product held. Billions? Trillions? After all, L’Oréal alone had a market value of nearly half a trillion nowadays.

If all the potential profits were added up, it would be immeasurable. From the results, this product could easily sweep away all similar products in the market.

Could a small, unknown company like Starline handle such a big piece of the pie?

It would be a miracle if they didn’t choke on it.

Those international giants were all ravenous wolves, devouring everything in its path. How would they just let them grow!

Currently, Starline Health’s sales volume was not enough to attract their attention. Moreover, their headquarters were abroad, making their response to domestic cosmetic market changes slightly delayed. Once this product entered their radar, they would stop at nothing to obtain the formula.

If the inconspicuous Starline did not seize the opportunity, they would ruthlessly crush it. They would either acquire it or find a way to destroy it, preventing it from becoming a threat to the global giants.

A small company without a strong foundation could not resist such pressure. This was the fate of countless small companies. Even if they had some core technologies, without channels, connections, financial support, or even strong military power, it would be difficult for them to become world-renowned giants.

At this point, it seemed that only large enterprises with strong support like Kumi Group could withstand such pressure.

No matter what, they had to act quickly. Regardless of the means, they had to deal with Starline as soon as possible.

Acquire the company? Acquire the formula? Either way was fine, even if they had to resort to some underhanded tactics.

Lin Jiayin picked up the phone on her desk, hesitating for a moment.

Such an important matter must be discussed in person with President Tang. She put down the phone, stood up, straightened her clothes, and picked up her handbag.

Click, click, click! She left the office, striding confidently in her high heels.

Yao Zhenshu couldn’t wait for Yao Jianguo’s reply and was anxious. He sent Yao De to inquire about the situation. Yao Jianguo didn’t hide anything and told Yao De about their family situation. Yao De relayed the message back.

Yao Zhenshu was furious, trembling and cursing.

“Scoundrel! He even dared to say that I should personally apologize to them. Yao Jianguo is utterly disrespectful. As a member of the Yao family, he’s allowing himself to be controlled by a shrewish woman. He deserves to be nothing more than a mere scholar for his entire life!”

“Father, please calm down. Don’t let your anger affect your health. It’s not worth it,” Yao De hurriedly said.

“Grandfather, it’s just a factory. Can’t our Yao family survive without it?” Yao Han said dismissively.

“What do you know? If you could work hard and make Tulip International successful, surpassing Yao Cen’s company, I would be more than happy. Can you do it? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to in your free time, you good-for-nothing!” Yao Zhenshu glared at Yao Han.

Yao Han had always been Yao Zhenshu’s favorite since he was a child. If it weren’t for his current anger, he would have never said such harsh words to Yao Han.

Yao Han’s face turned red, and he held his resentment inside. He didn’t dare to say a word and silently stood aside.

“Dad, I have an idea, but it’s a bit underhanded…” After a moment of silence, Yao De hesitated to speak.

Yao Zhenshu glanced at him: “Speak!”

Yao De leaned in and whispered into his ear for a moment.

“Stealing the formula?” Yao Zhenshu looked at Yao De with a surprised expression.

“With a two-pronged approach, if you can lower your head to the Yao family, I’ll bring Xiao Yu back, and I’m sure this will work,” Yao De said with certainty.

“I heard that Starline’s performance doubled this month, and it will definitely surpass the total profit of all our Yao family’s businesses in a year. We can’t let this golden goose go.”

Yao Zhenshu closed his eyes and hesitated for a moment, “Alright, for the sake of the Yao family, I’ll put my pride aside.”

Xiao Shun was completely unaware of the brewing storm outside.

At this moment, the sun was shining brightly, and Zhuang Jin was accompanying him to inspect the running track on the playground.

It was break time, and more than a dozen children were playing the game of “eagle catching chicks” under the guidance of a young teacher. Their innocent laughter filled the air, giving them an inexplicable feeling of “life is truly beautiful.”

Perhaps because these children were from working-class families, Hu had no barriers with them and could join in the fun.

“President Zhuang, you’ve put your heart into this school.”

The two walked around the track, and Xiao Shun smiled with satisfaction.

“Mr. Xiao, it’s my honor to work for you,” Zhuang Jin replied modestly.

“By the way, give this card back to Du Xing. I’ve already deposited enough money to cover all the expenses, so you don’t have to be so polite. As long as you don’t stab me in the back, I’m easy to get along with.” Xiao Shun handed the gold card to Zhuang Jin.

“Understood, from now on, the entire Pearl Commercial Chamber will be at your service,” Zhuang Jin said apprehensively.

Xiao Shun couldn’t help but laugh.

“Mr. Principal, here you are!” The young teacher who had been leading the children in the game greeted him.

As the weather had turned warmer, she was wearing a black knit long skirt with a blue knit short top, looking about twenty-three or twenty-four years old. She had black, shiny hair, fair skin, and wore a pair of black-framed glasses, exuding an air of scholarship.

It was the first time Xiao Shun had been called that way, and he paused for a moment, finding the title rather fitting.

He nodded with a smile, “If you need anything, just ask Miss Mai. She’ll help you right away.”

“Alright,” the female teacher replied with a nod.

“Uncle Xiao, did you come to see me?” Hu, who had been playing with her friends, finally noticed Xiao Shun.

She eagerly led a little girl of about her age over, giggling.
