My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 674 Trust

As Nan Chen hardly ever praised anyone, Ning Ran asked curiously, “Why are you impressed that he didn’t acquire

Sunshine Corporation?”

“If he had acquired the company while the Ouyang family was having trouble, it might not sit well with the other

directors and upper management of Sunshine corporation. They might even go against Rong Yi because of that.

Besides, Sunshine Corporation is a large organization. To acquire the company, a huge amount of capital is

required. It’s unlikely that Prosperity Holdings would have sufficient cash flow. As such, their only way to complete

the acquisition is through debt financing. However, if Sunshine Corporation fails to perform well after the

acquisition, the company would end up in a very risky position.”

Ning Ran nodded and replied, “Oh, I get it now. It’s like, if we force ourselves to eat when we are already full, we

would end up getting indigestion. You’ve told me the analogy before. So Rong Yi is actually very smart. He chose not

to acquire the company but to become a shareholder instead and observe the situation.”

Nan Chen looked at Ning Ran approvingly, acting like her homeroom teacher again.

However, he was not intending to lecture her but was instead, giving her a silent compliment.

“But there’s something I still don’t understand,” Ning Ran said, looking toward Nan Chen.

“What is it?”

“Even though Rong Yi did not acquire Sunshine Corporation, he had injected a lot of capital into it. If the company

continues to be in a dump, wouldn’t he make a loss as well?” Ning Ran asked.

“That’s why that was just the first step. The woman at the press conference was Ouyang Li, and the man was Rong

Rui, Prosperity Holdings’ deputy CEO. He’s also Rong Yi’s younger brother. Prosperity Holdings and Sunshine

Corporation held the combined press conference to officially announce their strategic partnership as well as their

reallocation of resources in various areas. Among the three major corporations in our province, Nanshi Corporation

is currently the largest, followed by Sunshine Corporation, then Prosperity Holdings. Now that the second and third

place had formed a strategic alliance, Nanshi Corporation would naturally be under a lot of pressure. Because of

the new partnership, the shares of those two companies have rocketed. As such, not only had Prosperity Holdings

made money, but they had also gotten themselves a great ally to go up against Nanshi Corporation. Previously, I

wasn’t able to figure out why they would suddenly return to Flower City, but the reason is clear now. Very

impressive indeed.”

Initially, Ning Ran was still rather confused, but after listening to Nan Chen’s explanation, she fully understood the

situation.

“So the alliance of the second and third place is threatening the leader’s position?”

“Well, Nanshi Corporation had never intended to be the leader. We have just been focusing on our business and

have never thought of being a threat to anyone. However, obviously, others do not think the same way. It’s clear

that they are ganging up against Nanshi Corporation. Things have been going too smoothly for Nanshi Corporation

for the past few years. I was worried that a major crisis would hit us sooner or later as things seemed too good to

be true. Sure enough, the crisis has arrived,” Nan Chen said with a worried expression.

Nan Chen was an extremely strong and capable man. The fact that he was worried about the partnership between

the other two companies meant that it was a serious matter.

It would certainly change the dynamics of the business arena in the province.

Previously, it was a tripartite situation. However, after two of the three companies joined forces, it would definitely

put pressure on Nanshi Corporation.

More importantly, Nanshi Corporation had bad blood with both companies.

“Don’t worry too much. Nanshi Corporation will be all right with you around.”

Nan Chen paced around a little before replying “Of course, I’m not afraid of them. I just think that it’s too much of a

coincidence. Immediately after I dealt with Sunshine Corporation, Rong Yi bought their shares at a low price and

became the second largest shareholder of Sunshine Corporation. Just when our feud with the Ouyang family was

finally about to be over, Ouyang Duo had suddenly run away and ended up dying along the way. Although it was his

choice to escape, it was unavoidable for the Ouyang family to blame his death on the Nan family. Naturally, they

would hate the Nan family to the core. Subsequently, Prosperity Holdings suddenly returned to Flower City. On the

surface, it seemed like a coincidence, but every step felt like it was carefully planned. If that’s really the case, it

means that Nanshi Corporation has fallen into a meticulously designed scheme. How many resources would be

required to carry out such an elaborate scheme? How powerful is the person who designed the scheme?”

Of course, Nan Chen was just thinking out loud and not asking for Ning Ran’s opinion.

“Could it be that you’re overthinking?” Ning Ran asked softly.

“I hope so.”

“I’m sure that even if the Ouyang family and the Rong family combine forces, they won’t be able to inflict harm on

Nanshi Corporation,” Ning Ran said, showing her support for Nan Chen.

The man glanced at her and asked, “Do you have that much trust in me?”

“Of course,” Ning Ran answered without hesitation.

“But why? Why do you trust me so much?”

“Because you’re not just any ordinary person. You’re Sir Chen! I remember that when we were trapped on that

island back then, you weren’t able to walk and were practically crippled. Even so, you were still able to help us

escape. Now that you are functioning perfectly, I’m sure this little bit of stress is nothing to you. You’ve got this!”

Ning Ran exclaimed.

Nan Chen enjoyed listening to Ning Ran’s flattery, although it was slightly exaggerated.

“You’re right. I’ll be heading back to Flower City tomorrow. Nan Xing is coming over. He misses the kids and wants

to visit them here. Don’t worry about anything and just focus on filming. Most importantly, be safe,” Nan Chen

reminded.

“I will. You have to stay safe as well, okay? By the way, you mentioned that you would give Ms. Tang a job. Did you

mean it?” Ning Ran asked.

“Of course I meant it. Why would I lie? She’s gotten numerous design awards in Epea and is very famous in the

industry. She just keeps a low profile and appears rather mysterious.”

“Mysterious?”

“Yup. We tried running a background check on her, but we were unable to find any information on her family. Her

family is registered in the capital, but other than herself, there’s no one else in her household registry. However,

judging from our conversation with her, it seems like she does have a family. Moreover, I believe that she doesn’t

come from an ordinary family,” Nan Chen explained.

“Wow! Could we have encountered a formidable figure?”

“I’m not sure if she’s formidable, but she’s definitely capable. If we can get her to join Nanshi Corporation, it would

definitely be good news for us. I will definitely offer her a senior position with a competitive salary. Besides, our kids

and her kids can grow up together. That way, they wouldn’t be lonely. I think it sounds great. You should try to

persuade her as well.”

Ning Ran realized that Nan Chen had become more sensitive. Perhaps, it was because of the fact that he had been

spending more time with the kids.

“Sure. I will look for an opportunity to talk to her and get her to join Nanshi Corporation. However, she is someone

who has a mind of her own, and it wouldn’t be easy for me to convince her.”

“Just try your best. Oh, has Rong Rong left? Are you still in contact with her?” Nan Chen asked.

“We are not in touch currently. I haven’t seen her ever since our last meal together. I guess Rong Yi told her not to

contact me after knowing about my relationship with you,” Ning Ran replied with a sigh.

“How are you related to me?” Nan Chen asked.

“How would I know!” Ning Ran was rendered speechless.

“If she contacts you, no matter what it is about, you have to let me know,” Nan Chen said.

“Are you wary of Rong Rong? Even if there’s bad blood between the Rong family and the Nan family, I don’t think

they would make use of Rong Rong to deal with us!”

“I’m just saying. I’m not suspecting her.”
