Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 693: A Madman’s Plan
Su Chen sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, knowing better than to expect either of these two women to pour it for him—in fact, it would be more likely the other way around.
"You always had a way with words."
Su Jin glanced at him and chuckled, but because they were about to discuss serious matters, she didn't continue with the jokes.
"Wife, what did you want to see me for, to specially arrange a meeting at a teahouse?"
Su Chen asked with a smile, his curiosity deepened by Su Jin's presence.
What also seemed odd to him was that next to Lin Ruoxue's seat, there was a notebook computer bag.
"Ruoxue, you tell him,"
Su Jin said, looking over at Lin Ruoxue.
Lin Ruoxue nodded and then turned to Su Chen:
"Husband, haven't you always wanted to know what I do every day at the Crystal Hotel?"
"Yes, wife, but if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine, I respect you,"
Su Chen said.
To be honest, he really did want to know. Everyone is curious, especially about their own spouse.
But the serious expressions on both Su Jin and Lin Ruoxue made him think that this was no small matter.
"No, I'm going to tell you today."
Lin Ruoxue looked into Su Chen's eyes and said solemnly:
"These days, I've been collecting data on the core industries of the Five Great Families, planning to strike at their core industries! To weaken their power in business!"
"The preparations are almost complete now, and next up is action!"
Upon hearing Lin Ruoxue's words, Su Chen was utterly flabbergasted!
He could never have dreamed that what Lin Ruoxue had been doing all this time was this!
Had Lin Ruoxue gone mad?
The Five Great Families might not be only powerful in business, but without a doubt, each of them was a colossus in the business world, otherwise, how could they support such large clans?
For Lin Ruoxue to think that she could take on the commercial empire of the Five Great Families with just Belle Group was pure fantasy!
To say she was like an egg smashing against a rock was an understatement; it was downright suicidal!
Even if she was targeting only a part of the Five Great Families' businesses!
Forget about going against all five at once, even taking on one family was almost hopeless!
Although Su Chen wasn't very knowledgeable in business, in his view, the chances for Lin Ruoxue and Belle Group to achieve this goal were less than ten percent!
Su Chen's gaze towards Lin Ruoxue was complex!
At this moment, he finally understood why she had been coming home late every day, why she had been working so hard lately, and why she had withdrawn all the liquid assets from the group not long ago!
All for this crazy plan!
Was Lin Ruoxue unaware of the risks involved?
Of course not, if Su Chen, who was somewhat a layman in the business, could understand this, she naturally understood it even better!
But still, she had gone ahead without looking back!
The reason was obvious—everything was for him!

Su Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly: With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!
He hadn't brought much to her, yet she was willing to make such a huge sacrifice for him!
Suddenly, a warm current slowly flowed through his heart...
"Ruoxue, you really didn't have to do this."
Su Chen said softly,
"Besides this, I don't know how else I could help you."
Lin Ruoxue looked at Su Chen and said,
"This is all voluntary on my part, and Grandfather has agreed, so don't overthink it."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Su Chen asked.
Faced with Su Chen's question, Lin Ruoxue simply glanced at him without speaking.
In fact, Su Chen knew in his heart the answer; Lin Ruoxue probably refrained from telling him because she feared he would disagree with her actions.
Indeed, that was Lin Ruoxue's thought, and the reason she was now telling him was partly because the deed had already been done; the plan was nearly in place.
Furthermore, it was because she knew that Su Chen had his own plans, and she worried there might be a conflict between them.
By bringing it up now, there was still a chance to modify or adjust some aspects.
This was also the main reason why she and Su Jin had asked Su Chen to come today!
"Aunt, you're involved in this too, aren't you?"
Su Chen glanced at Su Jin. In truth, his question was somewhat redundant, as her presence here said it all.
"Aunt has already put almost all the liquid funds of Jinsheng Group, aside from necessary expenses, into this."
Before Su Jin could speak, Lin Ruoxue had already opened her mouth with a face full of gratitude,
"Aunt has made the largest contribution to this plan."
"Ruoxue, don't say that, you, as a daughter-in-law, have already bet all your assets. What reason do I have to keep holding back?"
Su Jin said with a slight smile, then looked at Su Chen,
"This plan was entirely Ruoxue's doing. I only learned about it a few days ago and then got involved."
Su Chen didn't know what to say anymore; he looked at these two women, the closest to him, and sighed deeply.
Perhaps to Su Chen, their money wasn't an astronomical sum, but this sacrifice, this benevolence, was heavier than ten thousand catties, deeply moving him!
What could he do but protect them with his life?
With things as they were, Su Chen didn't say much more. He looked at the two of them and asked,
"What exactly is your plan? Tell me about it."
Upon hearing Su Chen's question, Lin Ruoxue, the plan's creator, took out her laptop, opened an encrypted document, and began to explain her strategy to Su Chen!
The entire plan was, of course, very complicated, and Lin Ruoxue spent about an hour discussing it with Su Chen.
Su Chen understood the gist; the general idea was that Lin Ruoxue was planning a comprehensive strike against the core industries of the Five Great Families.
The specific tactics were to block the upstream, seize the downstream, and use capital leverage in the capital markets to erode or take over, among other things!
It sounded simple, but the plan was immensely vast and complex!
"What is the biggest difficulty in your plan right now?" Su Chen asked.
"Money!"
After looking at each other, Lin Ruoxue and Su Jin said,
"I've pulled all the liquid funds from the Belle Group, almost 40 billion; Aunt's Jinsheng Group has about 1,200 billion in liquid funds. Together, we have less than 1,600 billion." (PS: Don't think this amount of money is too unbelievable; indeed, one might find it quite normal upon reviewing the financial statements of some large companies.)
"Although we're only targeting their core industries, it's still a bit short. Right now, we only have about a thirty percent chance of success. If we had that much more money, we'd have an eighty percent chance!"
Having said this, Lin Ruoxue also sighed. After all, no matter how well the plan is made, strength is the foundation!
"Yes, it would be much better if we had more money. With 4,000 billion in cash, we could not only deal a heavy blow to their core industries but also buy in at the bottom and make a large profit!"
Su Jin said helplessly,
"As it stands, even if we succeed, it seems we'll only end up benefiting others."
