Leveling Up With My Pet

Chapter 70 If Not Proton Group Will Get Thrashed Soon!



"Today, while inspecting our ship with Section Chief Xu from customs, I stumbled upon some valuable information. According to him, Proton Ocean Shipping Group is the mastermind behind this deceitful act, accounting for 90% of the scheme,"

Brother Yong shared with a hint of frustration in his voice.

As expected, it was Proton behind all of this!

Upon hearing this, Liu Yong's eyes glazed over, and a cold feeling emanated from within him.

Those who know Brother Yong well can attest that his anger is not ordinary.

Upon reading the WeChat message, Liu Yong immediately grabbed his phone and dialed Qiu Yang's number.

During the call, he provided instructions and explanations, stressing the importance of investigating the matter thoroughly and promptly, particularly regarding the alleged involvement of the Proton Group.

"President Qiu, spare no expense and use all your resources to get to the bottom of this.It is imperative that we understand the situation fully,"

Liu Yong commanded.

In response, Qiu Yang assured Liu Yong, "Rest assured, Boss. I will spare no effort in addressing this issue."

The senior management team at Universal sprang into action and utilized all available resources, with a clear objective of investigating the Proton Group's involvement.

As a result, they made swift progress in uncovering the truth.

Qiu Yang allocated a significant amount of funds and managed to obtain information from a Proton Group middle-level executive.

In exchange for the monetary compensation, the executive divulged every detail about the incident, even providing a copy of the report materials passed on to Global Marine Services.

As with the previous day, Liu Yong arrived at the company early and was already settled in his office by eight in the morning.

Shortly after that, Qiu Yang entered the office with good news.

"Boss, I have good news. We have almost resolved the matter. It has been confirmed that the Proton Group, under the direction of their president's assistant, Shi Libing, is responsible for reporting us to the customs. This is the report that they created,"

Qiu Yang reported.

After sharing the report material, Qiu Yang placed it on Liu Yong's desk.

Liu Yong skimmed through the document and scoffed, "It's ridiculous. Chi Guoguo blatantly framed us."

Qiu Yang also expressed his anger: "It's a baseless accusation. The Proton Group has no regard for industry regulations. Boss, what are our next steps? We must take action."

Liu Yong asked Qiu Yang, "What do you suggest we do next?"

Qiu Yang had already devised a plan, and he shared it with Liu Yong.

"Boss, we have always conducted ourselves lawfully. This time, we will be civil before taking action."

Liu Yong asked, "Can you elaborate on how we can be civil before taking action?"

Qiu Yang responded,

"I propose that I reach out to Shi Libing and inform him that we are aware that the Proton Group is maliciously reporting us behind the scenes. If he withdraws the report, we will not pursue the matter any further. However, if he refuses to withdraw the report, we will move forward with the next step."

Liu Yong nodded in agreement, "That would be ideal. If the Proton Group withdraws their report and the customs cancels the investigation, then our ship can leave the port without any delay. Time is of the essence, and we cannot afford any delays. Any delay would affect the arrival date of the container, and if we miss the deadline, Universal will have to pay liquidated damages to our customer."

Qiu Yang added, "In that case, I will contact Shi Libing immediately and see if he can be persuaded to withdraw the report."

Qiu Yang nodded in agreement and said, "Don't worry, Boss. I will make it clear to them and emphasize that Universal is willing to resolve this issue in a peaceful manner. But if they insist on causing trouble, we will not back down."

Liu Yong gave a firm nod and replied, "That's right. We must stand our ground and protect the interests of our company and our customers. Keep me updated on the progress."

Qiu Yang left the office to arrange his meeting with Shi Living.

Liu Yong's mind seemed to have found a way out. He thought, "We have the Overlord!"

The Overlord was the most advanced ship in the Universal Shipping fleet and the company's pride.

It had the most advanced technology and the most muscular transport capacity. It was a giant in the shipping industry.

If Proton refused to withdraw the report and continued to cause trouble, Liu Yong would use the Overlord to teach them a lesson. He believed that no matter how powerful the Proton Group was, they would not be able to withstand the power of the Overlord.

With this thought, Liu Yong felt a sense of relief. He believed they could overcome any obstacle if they had the Overlord.

If Proton refuses to acknowledge their mistake, Liu Yong might send Bawang to sabotage their ships secretly," said Shenma. "He's been known to wrap fishing nets around the propellers, but that's a minor inconvenience."

Liu Yong, however, had a more severe punishment in mind. "We'll keep punishing them until the Proton Group is scared enough to come to us and apologize," he declared.

Upon receiving a report from his subordinates, Shi Lijun, the head of Proton Group, learned that Qiu Yang, the general manager of Global Ocean Services, had sent an invitation for a meeting. Disdainfully, Shi Lijun glanced at the invitation card and threw it into the trash.

When asked how they should reply to Global Ocean Services, Shi Lijun ordered his subordinate to send Yuan Guanghui, a loyal middle-level manager of Proton Group, to the meeting. "I believe Qiu Yang wants to plead with us to tell Yuan Guanghui not to let go," he said.

"Understood, I'll inform President Yuan right away," replied the subordinate.

Qiu Yang and his team had been waiting in a private room at the XXX Tea House, a high-end establishment near Proton Group. They had requested a private room specifically for this meeting.

Shi Lijun did not attend the meeting in person and instead sent one of his subordinates, Yuan Guanghui. Qiu Yang seemed to have anticipated this and was not surprised by the absence of Shi Lijun.

The meeting was scheduled for 10 a.m., but Yuan Guanghui arrived ten minutes late, around 10:15. After entering the private room, he briefly apologized for being late due to a traffic jam. However, it was unlikely, given the short distance between Proton Group and the tea house and the non-peak hours for commuting.

This excuse was transparent and unconvincing, as it was clear that Yuan Guanghui was deliberately making a late entrance to show the Proton Group's superiority.

Qiu Yang's face showed a slight tremble as he tried to endure his frustration before getting straight to the point. "Manager Yuan, one of our ships was reported to have been sabotaged. Our investigation suggests that Proton Group may be responsible for it," he said.

Yuan Guanghui responded by laughing immediately, denying any involvement on behalf of Proton Group. "I am not aware of this incident, and I don't believe that Proton would do such a thing," he said.

Qiu Yang waved his hand, and one of his team members promptly threw a set of report materials in front of Yuan Guanghui. Upon seeing the materials, Yuan Guanghui felt embarrassed as they contradicted his previous denial.

Qiu Yang spoke up, "Our request is simple. If Proton Group withdraws this report, we can settle this matter and act as if nothing happened."

Yuan Guanghui asked, "What if we refuse to cancel the report?"

Qiu Yang responded sternly,

"If Proton Group insists on not canceling, then we will take countermeasures. Any consequences will be borne by Proton Group itself, and our company will not be held responsible."

Yuan Guanghui's face turned sour. He stood up and questioned Qiu Yang, "Are you threatening Proton?"

Qiu Yang responded, equally frustrated, "You can interpret it that way.You will be responsible for any future incidents and bear the losses. It has nothing to do with Universal."

Yuan Guanghui was too furious to continue the conversation.

He couldn't believe that Qiu Yang was threatening Proton, the leader in the ocean transportation industry in Huahai City.

With no more words to exchange, Yuan Guanghui left in a huff.
