113 The Price is Your Freedom

“President Li, I’m really sorry!” To be honest, Li Jinteng didn’t want to talk to Li Chengqian because Li Chengqian gave him a lot of pressure.

Moreover, it was such a humiliation and embarrassment for him to have to keep apologizing to a seventeen-year-old boy.

However, Li Lin’s future hinged on Li Chengqian’s decision.

If Li Lin’s punishment was too severe, he might spill the beans on the whole matter and the consequences would be dire!

He appeared to be pleading for Li Lin, but he was actually thinking for his own safety.

Li Jinteng had no choice but to grovel.

“President Li, Li Lin and you share the same family name. He has old folks and a young child to support. Please be magnanimous and spare him this time,” Li Jinteng said sincerely.

“President Li, actually, I still have a few videos that I want to show you.” At this moment, Li Chengqian sneered.

Li Jinteng was only apologizing and groveling when he realized that he was about to be exposed.

People do not get away with murder!

If Li Jinteng hadn’t been so rude and unreasonable when he first arrived at the Divine Dragon Software Company, if he hadn’t been so high and mighty, if he had apologized sincerely and negotiated properly, Li Chengqian would definitely have let him off.

Instead, Tencent Corporation played the blame game and fired the first shot.

They lodged complaints, made police reports and took legal action, all this while playing the victim.

They also defamed the Divine Dragon Software Company, Divine Dragon Optimization App, and Li Chengqian on the internet.

They made Li Chengqian the target of everyone’s hatred.

They destroyed the reputation of the Divine Dragon Optimization App.

The company was raided and freezed, and his house was turned upside down.

Li Chengqian was like a criminal, placed on the wanted list by the police.

If not for Academician Gao Xiang’s guarantee, Li Chengqian would probably have been handcuffed and escorted to Tencent Corporation.

All of this was caused by Li Jinteng!

And now he wanted to resolve this matter by simply apologizing, offering compensation?

Impossible!

When Li Jinteng heard Li Chengqian’s words, fear suddenly emerged from the bottom of his heart. His entire body turned cold, and his forehead was instantly covered in sweat.

“President Li, don’t be rash. There is always room for negotiation. In order to make up for your losses, feel free to ask for anything. As long as it’s within my means, I will definitely meet your terms.” Li Jinteng’s tone was almost pleading.

If Li Chengqian exposed the video of him commanding Li Lin to hack the Divine Dragon Optimization App, not only would his reputation be ruined, but he would also face jail time.

Tencent Corporation would also suffer a huge blow because of this!

Li Jinteng was willing to spend any amount of money to resolve this.

Due to fear and nervousness, Li Jinteng hurriedly shouted at Zhang Yunjian, “Zhang Yunjian, have you computed the compensation for President Li?”

“President Li, it’s done!” Zhang Yunjian was visibly upset and there was panic in her heart. She quickly handed a piece of paper over.

She had suffered a huge loss at Li Chengqian’s hands the last time.

This time, she was so frightened by Li Chengqian that she fell, causing her to be embarrassed.

She was extremely displeased with Li Chengqian and hated him to death in her heart.

She didn’t want to give Li Chengqian a single cent of compensation at all.

But she didn’t dare! She was very nervous… and afraid!

From what Li Chengqian said, he still had other video evidence in his hands.

Perhaps Li Jinteng had arranged for Li Lin to hack the Divine Dragon Optimization App video. If the video was played, it would immediately become evidence that Li Jinteng had instructed and instigated others to commit a crime.

It was also possible that Li Chengqian had a video of her reporting to Li Jinteng on how to destroy the relevant evidence. She would then be guilty of obstructing the course of justice by destroying criminal evidence.

“Zhang Yunjian, are you calculating according to the highest compensation standard?” Li Jinteng asked worriedly.

“President Li, it’s calculated according to the highest standards!”

“There are 500 million users of Android phones in the country. Based on 50% of the installations, the total number of installations is 250 million. Based on the industry standard, where 1% of users are paid users, the total number of paid users is 2.5 million.”

“The usage fee for the Divine Dragon Optimization App is 18 yuan per year. The total sales revenue for a year is 45 million yuan.”

“In the industry, the highest standard for full-fund acquisition of other companies is usually six times the other party’s net assets. We also have to compensate Divine Dragon Software Company with 270 million yuan based on six times its annual revenue.” Zhang Yunjian quickly said.

270 million!

When the senior management of Tencent Corporation heard this astronomical sum, everyone’s expressions turned solemn and their hearts ached.

When Wang Xinbo heard this amount, he nodded and thought to himself, “Li Jinteng is quite sincere.”

When Li Jinteng heard the sum of 270 million yuan, although his heart ached, he knew that now was not the time to worry about money.

Turning to look at Li Chengqian, Li Jinteng carefully said, “President Li, do you think our calculation method is reasonable? What do you think of this price?”

“Nothing much!” Li Chengqian sneered.

270 million yuan was indeed very tempting.

However, it was not very attractive to Li Chengqian! The Divine Dragon Optimization App could earn more than this within a short period of time.

He was developing the Divine Dragon operating system core, which would be even more profitable than the App.

He didn’t care about the money at all.

What he wanted was the right to speak. The right to have the last word.

And influence!

...

With influence, when he created new products, no one would dare to interfere or try dirty tricks on him.

If someone dared to interfere or scheme against him, he would destroy the person!

This time, he was going to destroy Tencent Corporation!

Make an example of them!

After hearing Li Chengqian’s words, Li Jinteng thought that Li Chengqian found the price too low and secretly cursed Li Chengqian for being insatiable.

“President Li, name a price. I’ll do my best.” However, now was not the time to worry about money. As long as he could spend money to avert the disaster, he was willing to pay any price now. With Tencent Corporation’s resources, even if the price was ten times higher, he could still bite the bullet and pay it.

“President Li, anything can be discussed. The issue between us can also be mediated and resolved. There’s no need for us to kill each other in the process! We can come to a win-win arrangement.” Zhang Yunjian was very nervous. Seeing that the atmosphere was solemn, she hurriedly added.

Li Chengqian still didn’t speak. He looked at Zhang Yunjian calmly.

Zhang Yunjian felt her hair stand on end from Li Chengqian’s gaze. Her voice was filled with fear, and there was no longer any arrogance on her face. “President Li, your Divine Dragon Optimization App is a very good software. If you cooperate with Tencent Corporation, with the help of our domestic and foreign resources, you will be even more powerful. You will quickly lead the market.”

“President Li’s will is the will of Tencent Corporation. With Tencent Corporation’s resources, there are very few things that we can’t do.”

“President Li, please name a price!” Zhang Yunjian finally changed the topic to money.

...

Actually, she also felt that Li Chengqian might not be satisfied with the compensation of 270 million yuan.

“Since you want me to name a price… then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Li Chengqian had a smile on his face.

After hearing Li Chengqian’s words, Li Jinteng and Zhang Yunjian looked at each other. They finally relaxed a little and they heaved a deep sigh of relief.

It was good if what he wanted was money!

It would be bad news if he didn’t want money!

“He’s really too greedy. Li Chengqian is actually still not satisfied with the huge compensation of 270 million yuan.” The senior management of Tencent Corporation cursed Li Chengqian’s greed in their hearts.

Wang Xinbo frowned and glanced at Li Chengqian.

“President Li, please tell me! How much do you want?” Li Jinteng’s voice was relaxed. Because of Li Chengqian’s greed, his opinion of him had gone down by quite a few notches.

“I want your freedom!” Li Chengqian sneered and spat out the price.
