After Tang Shunli left, Li Jin stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of the office with his arms folded, looking at the quietly flowing Nanlin River and falling into silence.
Su Wanqing was about to speak when she saw Su Dongsheng shaking his head slightly at him.
"He's thinking about something, don't disturb him yet."
Su Wanqing nodded, but looked at Li Jin with some worry.
She knew that Li Jin was under the greatest pressure in the company.
Tang Shunli, himself, and even his father were accustomed to placing their hopes on Li Jin most of the time, as if as long as Li Jin was around, all problems could be solved.
But as someone close to Li Jin, Su Wanqing knows better than anyone that the price of such ease is that Li Jin spends countless nights thinking about and reviewing the overall situation again and again.
No one can succeed casually.
After thinking for more than ten minutes, Li Jin suddenly said: "I can't wait any longer."
Father and daughter Su Dongsheng and Su Wanqing looked at each other, both of them confused about what Li Jin meant.
At this time, he had already taken out his mobile phone and made a call.
"Mr. Ma, it's me, Li Jin."
"Mr. Li, we are also waiting for news from you." Ma Taoyun's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What are your thoughts?" Li Jin asked.
Ma Taoyun replied: "I need Mr. Li to give me a credible promise."
"I will make whatever promises I have to make, but I don't have time for you to think about it endlessly. Time waits for no one. Time is very tight for both me and Ahri."
"So I propose to convene a general meeting of shareholders immediately. If Mr. Ma can agree and give me your vote, then I will fully support Ahli's rise. If Mr. Ma does not agree..."
Li Jin didn't say anything else, but both of them knew what was going on.
Ma Taoyun understood that with Li Jin's current position in the domestic Internet industry, both New Wolf and Teng Xun could easily copy the entire Ahri model and then squeeze out Ahri.
The saddest thing is that in the face of this dilemma, the weak Ahri doesn't even have any room to resist.
So this is equivalent to an ultimatum given to him by Li Jin.
Ma Taoyun frowned slightly, but he was not dissatisfied with Li Jin's domineering behavior.
No businessman can always do business politely. When it is time to be domineering, he must show his courage.
This point can also be proved from the development trajectory of Ali after the rise of later generations. Ma Taoyun himself was not an easy-to-talk Confucian businessman.
What makes Ma Taoyun feel confused is why Li Jin is so urgent?
Ma Taoyun was silent for a moment and said: "Mr. Li, I have also received news about Softwin's case against you. Does it have anything to do with it?"
"Yes." Li Jin said calmly.
We are all smart people. There is no need for Li Jin to deny this matter. This is disrespectful to Ma Taoyun and himself.
It seemed that Li Jin's frankness moved Ma Taoyun, or maybe Ma Taoyun had other ideas. This time, he did not hesitate.
"Okay, let's hold it then."
After hearing these words, Li Jin let out a sigh of relief and his mood became brighter.
He did not hesitate to risk his softness to death for Ah Li, and now the price has been paid. If Ma Taoyun is not forced to express his position, he will run the risk of being beaten.
This is not in line with Li Jin's behavior.
Therefore, Ma Taoyun himself also knew that now that Ruanying and Jin Qing were at bay, he could no longer continue to be the swaying fence-sitter and had to make a choice.
And his final choice was to compromise with Li Jin.
