Chapter 135 Unlocking the Deep-Sea Beast with a Backhand
Chapter 135 Unlocking the Deep-Sea Beast with a Backhand
"Don't fucking move!"
Lu Tianming went crazy.
He gripped the gleaming silver revolver, his arm trembling uncontrollably.
The investment promotion hall immediately descended into chaos. The wealthy people screamed and knocked over tables and chairs. Several women nearby were so frightened that their legs went weak and they collapsed to the ground.
The police officers from the provincial department also drew their guns, pointing them at Lu Tianming on the stage, and shouted, "Put down your weapons! Don't do anything foolish!"
Everyone present was terrified.
Lin Chen wasn't afraid.
He was standing in front of the gun barrel, less than three meters away.
The dark muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at him.
Lin Chen showed no sign of panic, and didn't even blink.
The "Special Close-Combat Technique" in his mind had already been activated, and all the muscles and nerves in his body were tense.
He could even hear Lu Tianming's breathing.
"Lin Chen! Tell those sons of bitches to unblock my account! Now! Immediately!" Lu Tianming's face was contorted with rage, his eyes bloodshot and terrifying. He roared, "Transfer 1 billion to my safe account right now! Or I'll shoot you dead, and we'll all be finished!!"
Lu Tianming has lost all his wealth and wants to take someone down with him.
Lin Chen looked at him and said, "President Lu, have you considered the consequences of firing that shot?"
He continued, "If you shoot now, there are two possibilities. First, you'll miss and be killed on the spot. Second, you'll hit me and then be riddled with bullets. What will happen to your family if you die? Do you think they can really get their hands on the money you've hidden abroad? If you die, won't that money just benefit outsiders?"
"Shut up! You fucking shut up!!" Lu Tianming became even more agitated, and the gun barrel swayed even more violently.
Lin Chen ignored him and continued, "If you put the gun down now, it'll at most be considered a financial crime, and you might get life imprisonment. At least you'll still be alive, and as long as you're alive, there's hope. But if you pull the trigger..."
He paused, his eyes fixed on Lu Tianming's hand.
"Then you really have nothing left."
Upon hearing this, Lu Tianming's eyes visibly dazed for a moment.
Now! Lin Chen made his move.
He moved as fast as a shadow; his body tilted to the side, and before the muzzle flashed, he had already dodged past.
The next second he was right in front of Lu Tianming, his right hand flashing out like lightning, and he gripped Lu Tianming's wrist holding the gun tightly.
"Snap!"
The bone is broken.
Lu Tianming screamed in agony as his wrist was twisted out of shape, and the silver revolver flew out of his hand.
With a flick of his wrist, Lin Chen had the gun in his hand.
Then a knee strike landed hard on Lu Tianming's stomach.
Lu Tianming knelt on the ground, making gurgling sounds in his throat, unable to move any further.
This entire sequence of actions takes only two seconds.
Before the people in the hall could even blink, the danger was over.
The police rushed up and pinned Lu Tianming to the ground.
Lin Chen flicked his wrist and threw the gun to the officer in charge.
At that moment, the system's voice rang in his mind.
[Ding! Detected that the host has averted a fatal crisis, triggering hidden intelligence.]
[Today's intelligence, part three: In the president's office of the Tianhai Group building, a hidden compartment behind a painting on the wall contains Lu Tianming's secret communication radio with the Asia-Pacific headquarters of "Deep Sea Eye," as well as the genuine ownership transfer documents for all the cold chain ports and ocean-going freighters under the Tianhai Group.]
If we're going to take him down, we'll do it thoroughly.
Lin Chen walked to the Huo family's head butler, who was looking at him with a mixture of shock and admiration in his eyes.
"Butler," Lin Chen said, "in Lu Tianming's office, there is the radio he used to contact 'Eye of the Deep Sea,' as well as the real property ownership documents for all of Tianhai Group's assets."
The head butler's eyes lit up.
He knew the weight of this thing.
This will not only completely shut down Lu Tianming, but also allow us to follow the trail and remove all the "Deep Sea Eye" spies in China.
"I understand." The head butler nodded, not asking where the information came from, and turned to give orders to the enforcement captain behind him, "Take men immediately, cooperate with the police, and raid the Tianhai Group headquarters! Don't let a single fly escape!"
"yes!"
Lu Tianming and Huo Jingyun were put into a police car, and the chaos in the hall gradually subsided.
This investment promotion conference turned into a one-man show for Lin Chen.
Tang Zhen and Chu Tiankuo exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with lingering fear and relief. They were the first to stand up and applaud.
The applause went from sporadic to thunderous.
The hundreds of restaurant tycoons and seafood business owners present looked at the young people on the stage with completely different expressions.
No one dared to underestimate him anymore; all that remained was respect.
One by one, they stood up and bowed to Lin Chen on the stage.
The meaning is clear: I give up, I admit defeat.
From today onwards, the aquatic product business in the provincial capital will be owned by the Lin family.
Lin Chen walked to the center of the stage and picked up the microphone.
He glanced around the audience, looking at the group of faces filled with awe and complex emotions, and said:
"Tianhai Group engaged in malicious competition and manipulated the market; it is now bankrupt."
"From today onwards, Longji Fresh will take over all of its 38 ocean-going cargo ships at cold chain ports and all of its deep-sea fishing quotas."
When Tianhai Group collapsed, Longji Fresh immediately rose to prominence.
In just one night, Longji Fresh's market valuation skyrocketed.
The hurdle of 5 billion was overcome in no time.
Eight billion.
10 billion.
A seafood company that originated from Huangni Village has grown into a business empire.
……
The banquet ended long ago, late at night.
Lin Chen stood alone on the rooftop terrace of the hotel, the sea breeze blowing against the hem of his clothes.
He looked at the dark sea in the distance.
The system's voice rang in my mind again.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the milestone mission—"Swallowing the Heavens and Seas!"]
[Mission Rating: Perfect.]
[Reward Settlement: 100,000 System Points.]
[Special Reward: Unlock the blueprints for the "Leviathan"-class deep-sea exploration mothership, a dedicated vehicle for the "Deep Diver 1"!]
New blueprints opened up in Lin Chen's mind. It was a ship that was even bigger and more powerful than the Poseidon, capable of carrying the "Deep Diver I," so that it would no longer have to just drift around in the coastal waters.
Lin Chen's gaze drifted to the deeper, more unexplored parts of the sea.
The Eye of the Deep Sea, our game has only just begun.
