Offer To The CEO

Wednesday, continued …

"What happened Yi? I recall being interviewed by police and being kicked, and then I awoke here . "

"Apparently your head was slammed at least twice into the wall, and you were kicked so hard that it broke your tibia and fibula of your left leg . The police officer who a.s.saulted you has currently been detailed, and the a.s.sault being investigating . You were transported here for medical checks . You were lucky that in addition to the leg, you suffered a concussion and a fracture to your cheek bone, as well as abrasions . They told me that you will be here for a couple of week . "

Hou Yi paused and, then continued "Anna, I will get the staff to come in and check you out . While they are doing this, I will step out and make a few phone calls . " With that Hou Yi pressed the call b.u.t.ton, and when the nurse arrived, he stepped outside the room .

Hou Yi opened his phone and dialed CEO Yao "Hou Yi here . I just wanted to talk to you about …"

"My previous offer regarding Lu Corporation, is my guess CEO Hou . My staff brought their press conference to my attention, and are urging me to step away from collaborations with Hou Enterprises . "

"So …"

"I do not trust CEO Lu . The last time we collaborated with him, while we cannot prove it he Lu Corporation appeared to have taken funds from the venture for themselves . It is hidden . CEO Lu us a manipulative idiot, who if he had to apply for his job would not even get an interview . And his self-ent.i.tled son, who thinks the world owes him everything . "

"Of my triplets you know the two boys completely saw through him when they were 14 years old . I suspect that six months ago he was behind the s.e.xual a.s.sault on their sister, but proving it is another story . She will not say who did it, and has not been the same since the a.s.sault . He disappeared at the same time she was out of my sight and the a.s.sault had to occur . "

"I have simply tolerated the waste of s.p.a.ce given the role his father gave him in the family company . There always has been little that can be done because he has his father"s backing and the power of Lu Corporations money behind him . I have had long discussions with Amanda Mei, and know in addition to my life long trust in you given your help at school, Amanda tells me that I can trust your wife completely . "

"In fact, the reason I had asked for the meeting is I wanted to work with you to shut Lu Corporation out of a new project . I found out a few days ago that Lu Corporation were pressuring other companies involved in the project for them to become the primary company, and to shut you out completely . "

"The City X Mall development?" responded Hou Yi

"Yes . As you might remember the original proposal was for you and us to each take a thirty percent share, and the remaining fourty percent to be shared between everyone else involved in the development . Now the pressure from everyone else is to dump Hou Enterprises and replace you with Lu Corporation . The demands, and we can guess who drove it was that Hou Corporation have to compensate them and Lu Corporation for taking over the involvement . "

"You now want to cut them out?"

"Absolutely . I am happy for Hou Enterprises to take whatever share that they want in the development, and we will fund the balance . Are you in?"

"Absolutely . Overall we will take fifty percent, but I cannot commit that money at the moment . Six to eight months time I could, as we have the Australian Commercial Development that hits it next major milestones in that time, freeing up funds . Can you manage until then?"

"We can . I will send the paperwork to you for signature . How is your wife, by the way?"

"She has woken up, and the medical staff are making a.s.sessments . "

"Keep me informed . I will bring the doc.u.ments to you, are you at home?

"Actually no, I plan to stay with my wife at the hospital . "

"I will bring the doc.u.ments to you there later . "

"Actually, I was arranging for Amanda Mei to visit my wife . What about you accompany her and make it less obvious what we are doing . "

"Good thinking . I am not going to keep you on the phone, however I need your approval for the press release . I have, rather than my Public Relations staff, have drafted it, so it will be short and simple . "

"OK, let me know the details . " Hou Yi paused, taking into account what Yan Tan said and then continued "Tan, I have another idea as well when you get here that I want to discuss, and it will stop the games once and for all, if you are in .
