192 Lu Corporation Press Conference - Part 1
Wednesday, continued …
Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin walked into the foyer of Lu Corporation.Rather than walking through to his father's office, he called and confirmed to his father's secretary that they had arrived.They were told to come up to his office.
5 minutes later …
After being made wait outside his father's office for a few minutes Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin were shown into the office.Both were angry in being left waiting to be shown in.As soon as the door was shut.
"Father, why …"
"Lu Jinhu, simply shut up.I have spent my time since I arrived back engaging in damage limitation.Do you not think about what you do, and its consequences?"
"But …"
"JInhu.You are my son and I love you and Yang Lin, and your unborn child but if you cannot think about consequences there will be nothing for you to inherit.This company relies on the interrelated nature of business in this country, and you can push others away, a they will have to make decisions about who the collaborate with us or Hou Enterprises."
"If we come out on the wrong end, everything will collapse.I have read your press release, and Lu Corporation's release is ready.Your office is being packed but it will remain vacant until we can ease you back in sometime in the future.That will be a wait and see.We need to go down, and you two better damn well be humble and ready to apologise.You have it."
"Yes father" echoed both Lu Jinhu and Yang Lin.
CEO Lu decided this was the time to play the other card he had received earlier and opened the draw where he had the photographs sent to him, plus a few of the others he had gathered over the last few months.He needed to bring these two to the point that they will do what he wants, rather than going off and causing him more problems.
Throwing them across the desk, he said "Look at these."
Lu Jinhu opened the envelope and pulled out what was inside noticing he had them upside down.As he flipped them over and they started to look at them both could not believe that they had been spied on.
"What the ..." spluttered Lu Jinhu.
"You think I trust you without having something up my sleeve to control you?I do not.And do not worry, that is a sample.I have photographs and footage that if you push too far, and start to bring the company down, I will provide to the police.What I have will see the two of you jailed.Now sit down and listen to me carefully."
With slumped shoulders, they sat down on the chairs opposite CEO Lu.As he saw their movements, he knew that he had them.
"Now, I will tell you once, and you need to listen.You will be taking total responsibility for what has happened absolving Lu Corporation from any blame.You will do what I say, and that includes if what I know you have done at the police station, given I had to pick up the pieces in talking to the two officers you spoke to.The junior one was on side with doing what we wanted, but the senior one questioned it."
"I had to feed them information, and if that b*tch of yours Lu Jinhu is any sort of lawyer she will have twisted the truth out of them.You will, and I mean you will accept total responsibility for me doing that if they are caught, by saying that you prompted the call by saying that I would confirm the truth.That allows me to say, 'I told them that I believe my son and daughter-in-law would tell the truth."
"Further if anything else comes out, you will accept that you were responsible, not me, and protect me and the company.Any failure will result in me releasing enough of this, to ensure that you spend years in jail.You cooperate, I will ensure that you are financially supported, and will do absolutely everything to keep you from jail.you understand the deal?"
Both looked at each other and realised that they had no option but to agreed, and meekly responded "Yes father."
