Chapter 249 Take action
Mo Ze knew that JK Group's actions would definitely be risky, and the company didn't belong to him alone. He was very grateful for Tang Yichen and the others' unconditional support.
Tang Yichen, in particular, risked almost everything in the JK Group to stand up for him without hesitation.
"Thank you, big brother," Mo Ze said to Tang Yichen at the end.
Tang Yichen was taken aback. "What are you thanking me for? Your business is our business."
"Alright, take care of yourself over there. I've already spoken to Zhou Chengan, so you can contact him directly if you need anything."
"Understood, brother," Mo Ze nodded in response.

The company registered by JK Group in Europe is not directly owned by them; it takes several detours to trace it back to JK Group. Therefore, using that company to buy shares in Qin's Group is the most suitable option.
After the matter was handed over to Qin Hao, he took action that very day.
Without leaving a trace, they secretly absorbed Qin's shares little by little, without Qin Yu and his son noticing at all.
However, on the same day, Qin's Group received calls from three or four partners who offered to terminate their contracts, even at the cost of compensation. The reasons were unclear; they simply said they no longer wanted to cooperate with them.
Furthermore, all the previously agreed-upon collaborations fell through one after another; everyone who was supposed to sign a contract that day suddenly backed out and decided not to sign.
He then turned around and started cooperating with the Zhou family.
Qin Yifeng didn't think there was a problem at first. After all, the Qin Group had a deep foundation over the years, and all these people were the ones who took the initiative to beg them for cooperation. If they didn't want to sign a contract, they didn't have to. It wasn't like the Qin Group couldn't find people to cooperate with.
But in just one day, so many unusual contract terminations and no-shows suddenly appeared, and he finally realized something was wrong and went to find Qin Yu.
Qin Yifeng rushed to Qin Yu's office with the data, disregarding everything else, and handed over the compiled documents. "Dad, something's wrong. So many partners have terminated their contracts today, and all the previously agreed-upon collaborations have also been canceled."
Qin Yu originally wanted to scold Qin Yifeng for still being so impulsive, but after hearing what he said, he took the document that Qin Yifeng handed him and started reading it.
As he read, Qin Yu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Finally, he slammed the compiled document on the table and asked Qin Yifeng, "What's going on?"
His angry expression made Qin Yifeng's heart pound.
However, he still answered with a stiff upper lip, "I don't know what happened. Starting this afternoon, I started receiving calls to terminate the contract one after another. The other party didn't give any reason. They would rather pay compensation according to the contract than not terminate the contract with us."
As Qin Yifeng observed Qin Yu's expression, he continued, "And those projects that were originally agreed to be signed have also called to say they won't be signing anymore."
"I made some inquiries privately, and it turns out that almost all of these new projects have turned to the Zhou family for cooperation..."
"The Zhou family? That kid Zhou Cheng'an is that capable?!" Qin Yu said bluntly. In the eyes of his generation, they naturally looked down on young people like Zhou Cheng'an who had just taken over the company.
Qin Yifeng was also puzzled. Logically, the Zhou family couldn't offer more favorable cooperation terms than the Qin family; at best, they could offer the same. Moreover, the details of cooperation were usually kept confidential, and even if the Zhou family wanted to poach clients, it wouldn't be this easy.
The information he gathered was that these people were actively seeking out the Zhou family, and the conditions they offered were no better than those offered by the Qin family; in some cases, they were even worse.
This is really unusual.
Someone must be up to no good here!
"Dad, if it's not the Zhou family, then who else has the ability to stir up trouble in Hong Kong?"
In fact, the Zhou family wouldn't dare to so blatantly steal the Qin family's customers.
Zhou Cheng'an is a newcomer. Although he has always been ruthless, he has not been in that position for long and has not yet settled in. Logically, he should not openly oppose the Qin family.
The information Qin Yifeng had gathered privately also confirmed this.
These people were all eager to seek cooperation with the Zhou family.
It wasn't Zhou who actively poached their clients.
So this is really strange.
He roughly estimated that just from the projects that were terminated today, as well as the projects that were canceled, the Qin family lost several hundred million yuan overnight!
Qin Yu frowned, squinted, and pondered with a shrewd expression.
Zhou's Group...
The only person he has any connection with is that kid we just found. Could it be him?
Qin Yu quickly dismissed the idea, feeling that Mo Ze couldn't possibly have such great abilities.
"Keep a close eye on the Zhou family's movements these next few days, and have someone find out what's going on with these partners who terminated their contracts. Make sure you find out the specific reasons."
Qin Yu made arrangements for Qin Yifeng.
Qin Yifeng immediately nodded in agreement and then left Qin Yu's office.
After he left, Qin Yu thought for a moment and then called Zhou Chengan.
That day, my men came back and said that it was Zhou Cheng'an who was there to meet Mo Ze and Qin Yiche, and now he's poached Qin's business partners.
Anyway, this matter is definitely related to this kid.
The Zhou family, also a prominent family in the port city, has a complex web of relationships. They have always maintained a cooperative relationship with the Qin family, each earning their own money and running their own businesses, and on the surface, they appear to be on good terms.
I never expected that Zhou Chengan would do something like this as soon as he took office. He's just a young man and doesn't know how to keep his sharp edge in check.
Qin Yu dialed Zhou Cheng'an's number, intending to sound him out.
When Zhou Chengan received Qin Yu's call while sitting in his office, he had an expression that suggested he had expected it.
"Uncle Qin, why did you call me?" he asked casually.
Qin Yu didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Cheng'an, the Zhou family and the Qin family have always lived in peace and kept to themselves. Although our two families have many similar businesses, we haven't had any conflicts over the years. You earn your money, I earn mine. The market is so big, there's no need to fight over it. You've just taken the position of president and you're giving your uncle such a big gift. Isn't that inappropriate?"
Zhou Chengan pretended not to understand Qin Yu's hint and replied with a smile, "What is Uncle Qin talking about? I don't understand a word he said."
Qin Yu felt like he'd punched a pillow, and his anger only grew. He directly confronted her, asking, "Today, many of Qin's partners terminated their contracts and all went to your Zhou's. President Zhou, you must not know that, right?"
"Really? I heard from my staff that quite a few clients came to us today, but I haven't asked about it in detail yet. But Uncle Qin, since they've taken the initiative to ask for cooperation, I can't just turn them away, can I?"
With just a few words, Zhou Cheng'an completely absolved the Zhou family of any involvement in this business war.
Unable to extract any useful information from Qin Yu, he angrily retorted, "Then it depends on whether you have an appetite for food."
“No need for Uncle Qin to worry. The Zhou family has always had a big appetite, especially since they’ve come to us willingly. We’ll have to eat it even if we can’t,” Zhou Cheng’an said before the other party hung up the phone.
He looked at his phone and smiled crookedly.
The best is yet to come!
