Chapter 3728: Chapter 3719: The Press Conference Begins

"I think so too. After the official announcement came out, they immediately held a press conference, clearly trying to stabilize the situation," said Viggins.

"But doing this is already meaningless. Even if they bring out all the money they earned, they can’t change the current situation."

"They take themselves too seriously and have forgotten their country’s system. He’s too young, and only thinks about his own comfort without considering things comprehensively."

"I think our stock price will rebound significantly tomorrow. We should think of some ways to retaliate against the Lingyun Group."

"The best way to retaliate is through sanctions. We must maintain our attitude but direct the focus at Lingyun Group, giving others a chance to survive."

"I plan to check out Lingyun Group’s press conference. Since he embarrassed you, I need to find a chance to recover our face."

Sinus laughed, "Alright, let’s take a look. If we miss such a big joke now, it won’t be easy to see later."

"Got it."

...

As time passed, three days quickly went by.

The news about Lingyun Group holding a press conference spread rapidly.

At the same time, Shitong Electronics was also having its press conference and was aggressively advertising it.

To create momentum, they even invited celebrities to support them, with almost the entire internet flooded with news about them.

For a while, news about Shitong Electronics was everywhere, leaving people overwhelmed.

Even people from other industries knew about it, adding considerable heat to the matter.

Some industry insiders believe that in the near future, Shitong Electronics might replace Lingyun Group as the leader in the domestic semiconductor industry.

Such news also led to varying degrees of decline in the stock prices of Lingyun Group’s associated companies.

In contrast, apart from an announcement, Lingyun Group didn’t release any other relevant information.

This half-dead state also revealed some clues to industry insiders.

In their view, with Lingyun Group’s size and status in the industry, such things shouldn’t be happening.

The only possibility is that they might indeed be feeling defeated, unable to come up with any response, and can only stare helplessly.

Some people even called Lingyun Group’s higher-ups to probe for internal information.

But the answer they received was the same three words, "Don’t know."

This situation further made industry insiders believe that Lingyun Group had exhausted its tactics.

Unable to produce any effective countermeasures to respond to the current situation.

Some even think this could be the critical moment in Lingyun Group’s decline.

And all this information was observed by Lin Yi, who only responded with a laugh and felt nothing.

In Lingyun Group, Lin Yi was in his office, speaking on the phone with Shen Shuyi.

"What are you hiding? Have you come up with other plans?"

"Mom, how come you can’t stay calm? Wait another hour, the press conference will start soon, and you’ll know then."

"I’ve already sent people over. I want to see what you have to show, and see if it’s worth 100 billion."

"Alright."

Ending the call with Shen Shuyi, Lin Yi felt a bit of anticipation. He also wanted to know how much of a stir this plan could create.

Squeak—

At that moment, the office door opened, and Ji Qingyan walked in from outside.

"It’s about time, let’s head over now."

Lin Yi nodded, tidied up his clothes, and left the office.

On the way, many colleagues greeted Lin Yi with smiles.

Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan responded to each of them, without any airs.

They got into the parked car outside and drove to the location of the press conference.

At the entrance of the venue, the first group had all arrived, along with Qin Han and the other three.

"Old Lin, what are you thinking? Such a big deal as a press conference, the Lingyun Group merely issued an announcement. They should have made a bigger splash, and now, the pressure is taken by Shitong Electronics," Qin Han complained.

"It hasn’t started yet, don’t worry, you’ll understand after the press conference."

"Damn, you had a backup plan and didn’t say anything."

"Yeah, why didn’t you unveil it early? Could have built more momentum," said Gao Zongyuan.

"Displaying it early might get discovered, and the game wouldn’t be fun anymore. Anyway, just trust me."

"Since you said so, we won’t think about it."

"Alright, you all go in. There’s no need to stay here."

Qin Han, the other three, and the first group went inside the venue, but Xiao Bing stayed outside.

"How’s the investigation on Sun Kang’s matter?"

"It’s clear now. Their cooperation with Jia Sheng Electronics is mainly to produce lithography machines. Given our experiences and foreign technical support, their R&D progress might be very fast."

Xiao Bing continued:

"Plus, with policy and financial support, they might secure more market share in future years. But whether it can be achieved depends on Lingyun Group’s actions. If we don’t give them a chance, they can’t succeed."

"That’s not the focus, mainly their relationship with the Chen family and the link to the Kaijie Group."

"That’s also sorted out. I’ve compiled all the information and sent it to Fourth Sister-in-law. You just need to give the command, and the plan can start."

Lin Yi nodded, "For now, there’s nothing else to do. Just find a good spot to watch the show."

"Got it."

Xiao Bing left, Lin Yi looked around, chatted briefly with the staff in charge, and entered the venue with Ji Qingyan.

This time, Lin Yi still chose not to show up. Qi Xianzhao was the host, with Shen Tianzhuo as the main speaker.

Upon arriving at the venue, Lin Yi checked his watch. The press conference was set to begin in less than 20 minutes.

Yet, only a third of the seats in the venue were occupied.

Part of them were media, and not many people from the circle showed up.

However, those who did were mostly important figures, many of whom were Lin Yi’s friends.

Despite Lingyun Group not being favored by anyone, they still came to support Lin Yi.

Seeing these people, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan went over to greet them, and then they waited for the press conference to begin.

"Hello Director Lin, I’ve long admired you, and today I finally get to meet you."

The speaker was Sun Kang, whom Lin Yi didn’t know.

Even though Xiao Bing was investigating him, Lin Yi hadn’t focused his attention on Shitong Electronics.

Because he never regarded Sun Shengyao seriously, let alone know who Sun Kang was.

"Who are you?"
