Daily Intelligence: Forced to Save the Beautiful President at the Beginning

174: Chapter 175 System Intelligence Points to the Divine Doctor?Zhang Fan stared at the blood-red warning box in his mind, his fingers still frozen in mid-air. The complaints in his heart nearly burst through his throat: ”Are you trying to kill me! I just finished dealing with that edgy live-in son-in-law Xiao Chen, and now comes a financial strangulation? Did I dig up the ancestral graves of Tianming Group in my past life, and now they want to fight me to the death in this one? What happened to the promised blessing of lying flat!”

Complaining aside, his movements were not slow at all. He grabbed his phone and dialed Liu Ruyan. His tone had lost all leisure, replaced by unquestionable urgency: ”Immediately activate the highest-level ’War Contingency Plan’ for Singularity—everyone in the Technology Department must stay, encrypt all core code, especially the underlying data for the Star Core Engine and medical ai; have Wang Chengsi contact the Legal Department and prepare to handle supply chain breach of contract lawsuits; notify Finance, freeze all non-essential expenditures, and prioritize funding for R&D and the overseas promotion of star path!”

On the other end of the line, Liu Ruyan instantly entered work mode, her voice clear and crisp: ”Understood, President Zhang! The Technology Department is fully staffed, and I will go coordinate the encryption now; I have already synchronized the news with Wang Chengsi, and he is contacting our partner law firm; the CFO says they will send you the capital reserve report within half an hour!”

After hanging up with Liu Ruyan, Zhang Fan successively dialed the numbers of Zhou Yurou and Lu Qingyan. Zhou Yurou was responsible for supply chain coordination. As soon as she heard about the plan from Tianming Group, she immediately said: ”I have already had the supply chain team check for alternative suppliers for Heishi Precision, and simultaneously contacted local precision instrument factories in Jiangcheng. I will strive to negotiate an alternative plan within 48 hours; we must not let production of the Star Core Engine be cut off!”

Lu Qingyan was watching the dynamics of the financial market, his tone carrying a hint of gravity: ”Song Zhiwei just sent a message; there is already abnormal selling of Song Capital’s Hong Kong stocks, and the traces of offshore fund position building are very obvious. I am tracking the source of the funds, and the preliminary judgment is that it is the same force that shorted Yunqi Technology before; it should be Tianming Group’s people.”

In just ten minutes, the Huaxia Technology Alliance became like a precision war machine that had suddenly started up—the Song family mobilized overseas capital to hedge the sell-off, the Lu family’s Yunqi Technology opened its own supply chain channels for Singularity’s emergency use, and Gu Group contacted the senior management of Warner Bros., attempting to resolve the content compliance audit crisis for star path. Outside the office, the sound of employees’ footsteps and phone calls rose and fell, yet there was not a hint of chaos; everyone was racing against time to deal with this ”financial strangulation.”

Zhang Fan leaned back in his chair and rubbed his throbbing temples. Tianming Group’s plan was interlinked, from supply chain to finance, and then to public opinion; every step was gripping the lifeblood of Singularity, clearly premeditated. He took a deep breath and ordered the system in his mind: ”Filter all crisis intelligence related to ’Tianming Group’, ’financial attack’, and ’supply chain cutoff’, and highlight their unexposed backup plans!”

The system’s humming sounded in his consciousness, and a pale blue data stream flashed by rapidly. A series of information fragments popped up on the screen—there were shareholder change records for Heishi Precision, registration information for offshore funds, and the content of the ”anonymous whistleblower letter” received by Warner Bros. Zhang Fan scanned through them one by one, but did not find any key clues that could directly break the situation; most of this information was either already known to him or could not be verified for the time being.

Just when he thought the system could only provide this basic intelligence, an orange pop-up window suddenly jumped out, its priority even overriding the previous blood-red warning, yet its content had absolutely nothing to do with the financial strangulation:

[Orange Crisis Intelligence: Folk miracle doctor Li Yong received a ”cooperation invitation” from Tianhua Pharmaceutical this morning, which is actually a trap set by the group’s young master, Wang Haoyu. Wang Haoyu intends to swindle the ”anti-cancer herbal formula” in Li Yong’s hands (this formula is inherited from Li Yong’s ancestors and has been clinically verified to have a significant inhibitory effect on late-stage liver cancer). If Li Yong refuses, he will be reported to the police and arrested on the grounds of ”practicing medicine illegally.”]

[Association Hint: The largest shareholder of Tianhua Pharmaceutical is ”Qiming Capital”, a secondary investment company under Tianming Group; Wang Haoyu’s overseas account has received three sums of money from Polaris Capital-related accounts in the last three months.]

Zhang Fan sat up straight abruptly, and the phone in his hand ”slapped” onto the table.

Anti-cancer herbal formula? Li Yong? What the hell does this have to do with Tianming Group’s financial strangulation?

He subconsciously wanted to ignore this piece of intelligence, but the system had never been wrong—the previous clues about Xiao Chen and the cleanup plan of Tianming Group, the system’s warnings had always been precise. This seemingly unrelated piece of intelligence absolutely hid a connection he hadn’t seen through.

He stared at the keywords ”Tianhua Pharmaceutical”, ”Qiming Capital”, and ”Polaris Capital-related accounts,” his brain running at high speed: What Tianming Group wanted was never just the Star Core Engine and medical ai, but all the top-tier technologies that could be monopolized.

If Li Yong’s anti-cancer formula was truly effective, once mass-produced, it would completely change the global anti-cancer drug market landscape. This was definitely a target that Tianming Group would not let go of!

Wang Haoyu’s ”framing” was not personal enmity at all, but a part of Tianming Group’s plan—they wanted to take down Singularity’s technology and Li Yong’s medical technology at the same time, attacking from both sides to completely control Huaxia’s high-end industries!

”So that’s it!” Zhang Fan slapped his thigh, realizing it instantly. Tianming Group’s ”strangulation plan” was not just financial; it also hid a ”technology plunder” backup move! If Li Yong were caught and the anti-cancer formula fell into Tianming Group’s hands, not only would they lose a key consultant for medical ai, but Tianming Group would also gain another trump card to restrain them—at that time, they would not only have to deal with the capital chain crisis but also face the threat from Tianming Group in the medical field, being attacked from both front and back!

”I must find Li Yong immediately!” Zhang Fan grabbed his phone and dialed Gu Jingshen. His tone was urgent: ”Old Gu, arrange for people to go to Li Yong’s residence right now. Whether he is there or not, you must find him! Wang Haoyu of Tianhua Pharmaceutical wants to frame him with the goal of snatching his anti-cancer formula. You must protect him well; don’t let him get caught!”

After hanging up, he dialed Li Yong’s number again, but the receiver played the prompt: ”The user you are calling is temporarily unavailable.”

Zhang Fan’s heart instantly jumped into his throat—could Li Yong have already been found by Wang Haoyu’s people?

Outside the office, Zhou Yurou walked in quickly in high heels, her fingertips pinching a few crumpled supply chain reports, her other hand constantly rubbing her sore shoulders.

She had just been in a video conference with three precision instrument factories, running continuously for two hours, and her back was stiff. Seeing Zhang Fan pacing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his brows knitted in a knot, she paused, then hurriedly stepped forward: ”What’s wrong? I just finished talking to Song Zhiwei; didn’t we say the Hong Kong stock sell-off had temporarily stabilized? Did the financial market pull another stunt?”

Zhang Fan turned his head at the sound. Seeing the weariness in her eyes, he reached out to pull the office chair out and handed her a bottle of warm mineral water from the corner of the desk: ”Sit down for a while; this is more troublesome than the financial issue. It’s not aimed at our supply chain, but at Master Li Yong.”
