Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 481 - 451: You Will Regret It

"You just wait for my good news," Huang Weicheng hung up the phone.

Afterward, he closed his eyes, pondered for a while, and then dialed a phone number from his network of contacts, "Boss Chen, I need your help with something."

The person on the other end of the line, Boss Chen, was very cautious, "What is it? It’s not very peaceful recently. Both the Yang family and the Tang Family have been wiped out, and a lot of people are involved. The authorities are investigating rigorously. If it’s not important, you’d better not act rashly."

The affairs of the Yang family and the Tang Family, many people only had a rough idea.

As to who actually caused the downfall of the two families, no one really knew.

If they had known, neither Wei Yongxiong nor Huang Weicheng would dare to oppose Xu Yang.

"Boss Chen, it’s not a big deal. It’s just that Xu Yang, the owner of Bottom-of-the-River-Pick, is too arrogant. I plan to teach him a lesson," said Huang Weicheng.

"The owner of Bottom-of-the-River-Pick? He’s the highly prominent billionaire who, I heard, recently took down another billionaire enterprise. If you fight with him, you might suffer great losses," said Boss Chen, frowning.

"No matter how big the loss, I can take it. He didn’t give me face; I must teach him a lesson. Otherwise, if people find out, won’t everyone think they can afford to disrespect me?" Huang Weicheng replied.

"You have a point. So, how do you want to teach him a lesson?" Boss Chen thought about it and felt there was some reason in what Huang said. As long as he didn’t expose himself, he could help.

"His Bottom-of-the-River-Pick has now expanded to the provincial capital. I hope you can have some people make trouble there," said Huang Weicheng.

"That’s a bit tricky. Bottom-of-the-River-Pick is doing very well right now, and there aren’t any issues. If I rashly send people to stir up trouble, I could easily give others something to use against me," Boss Chen said, still frowning.

"Triple!" Huang Weicheng said.

"Food safety is of great public concern. As the most popular hotpot restaurant, Bottom-of-the-River-Pick’s food safety and hygiene can’t be flawed. I’ll have the health department go check it out," said Boss Chen earnestly.

Just now, when he said it was difficult, he was actually just angling for a higher price.

Now that the price had tripled, it naturally wasn’t difficult anymore.

"Thank you, Boss Chen!" Huang Weicheng smiled.

Soon, the health department staff from the provincial capital stormed into the Bottom-of-the-River-Pick stores to conduct inspections.

Although the inspection results showed no problems, it severely impacted Bottom-of-the-River-Pick’s business.

The market was also rife with rumors, claiming that Bottom-of-the-River-Pick had substandard hygiene and that their ingredients were of poor quality and expired, among other things.

On Xu Yang’s side.

He received a report from Ma Yangrong, "Mr. Xu, the incidents involving Bottom-of-the-River-Pick in the provincial capital were caused by Huang Weicheng. He used his connections to inspect our stores there. Although no problems were found, there are too many people who want Bottom-of-the-River-Pick to close down. Many competitors have started to stir up trouble."

Xu Yang’s expression darkened, "Huang Weicheng is asking for death!"

Ma Yangrong agreed, "He is indeed asking for it."

Xu Yang asked, "Have you cleared up his situation? Do you have a plan to deal with him?"

Ma Yangrong replied, "Everything’s clear. With your order, we can act immediately."

Xu Yang said, "Then proceed. Also, our Bottom-of-the-River-Pick needs to issue a statement to refute the rumors."

Ma Yangrong said, "Your father-in-law, Mr. Zhao, has already done that."

Xu Yang said, "That’s good. Go ahead then. Since Huang Weicheng dared to make a move, then don’t hold back. Crush him thoroughly!"

After hanging up the phone, it rang again.

It was a call from Huang Weicheng.

Xu Yang answered but said nothing.

"Hello, Mr. Xu," Huang Weicheng said cheerfully.

"If you have something to say, say it," Xu Yang said impatiently.

"Mr. Xu, you seem to be in a bad mood. By the way, I heard that the health officials visited your Bottom-of-the-River-Pick stores in the provincial capital. They didn’t find any problems. Congratulations," Huang Weicheng still spoke cheerfully.

"Did you call just to tell me this?" Xu Yang asked in a deep voice.

"Of course not. I also want to say, ’Spare others when you can.’ Don’t you agree?" Huang Weicheng asked, grinning.

"I’ve already experienced your tactics, you’ll regret this!" Xu Yang said.

"President Xu, what do you mean? I don’t understand," Huang Weicheng feigned confusion.

"If you don’t understand, then there’s no need to listen any further. Goodbye!" Xu Yang hung up the phone directly.

"Hmph, still not giving in? Then I’ll meddle with your other companies."

Huang Weicheng snorted coldly, put down his phone, and mused about continuing to target Xu Yang’s businesses.

Which company should he choose?

Xu Yang had acquired quite a few companies.

Before he could make sense of the situation, his phone rang again.

It was a call from his assistant.

At this time, it was rare for the assistant to call.

He frowned and answered, "What’s wrong?"

The assistant said, "President Huang, there’s trouble. Our live streaming platform has been shut down, and we’ve been fined a hundred million!"

Huang Weicheng used to be in manufacturing, but as the business went downhill, he transitioned to the internet.

He started a few internet companies, one of which was a live streaming platform.

This live streaming platform was called Spicy Pepper Live.

It was the ninth-ranked live streaming platform in the country.

Running a live streaming platform is incredibly costly.

Huang Weicheng had invested five hundred million to ensure that Spicy Pepper Live could stand firm in the live streaming industry and start making profits.

He monitored the situation of Spicy Pepper Live daily; there had never been any issues.

How could something go wrong now, and with a fine of a hundred million?

Huang Weicheng asked anxiously, "What happened? Was it because some female streamer showed something she shouldn’t have? I’ve said before that, at the beginning, to attract traffic, it’s okay to do that, but now that we have traffic, it’s unnecessary. If you need to do it, at least add people to a WeChat group!"

When Spicy Pepper Live was first started, there were many broadcasts that toed the line.

That kind of edgy broadcasting could easily lead to trouble.

But there was no choice, as it was a way to attract viewers more easily.

Since it was an unknown live streaming platform, the relevant departments turned a blind eye, and no trouble had arisen. At most, there were some fines, but it was never shut down.

So, Spicy Pepper Live attracted a massive amount of traffic by edging the regulatory limits.

Once they had the traffic, he wanted to manage it prudently, strictly prohibiting any inappropriate content.

If some insisted on crossing the line, they’d have to do it privately – add people on WeChat, pull them into groups, then charge privately for various fancy performances.

With this approach, Spicy Pepper Live operated very legitimately and had a great reputation, with revenue skyrocketing.

Furthermore, these private WeChat groups were thriving.

In this area, the platform would take a cut.

They only took a cut, so if anything went wrong, it wouldn’t be connected to the platform.

The assistant said, "President Huang, none of the streamers has done those things; they’ve all been following your instructions, there have been absolutely no violations or illegal activities."

"Then why has it been shut down? And fined so much?" Huang Weicheng didn’t understand.

Being shut down is a major issue, it must be a serious problem; otherwise, a shutdown would definitely not happen.

"President Huang, the reason for the punishment given by the relevant department..." the assistant hesitated.
