The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Chapter 1601 - 1604: Who Is the Stepping Stone?

Although the words of the well-known influencer "Groundhog" are harsh, more and more women agree with what she says.

And Owen, Ji Lihui, and others are extremely delighted. Despite Groundhog being ugly, she sure knows how to talk—she can turn the dead into the living.

As long as she continues this kind of brainwashing, more and more women will inevitably buy cosmetics from Tio Group, and with even more recklessness.

If most women follow suit, don't those Huaya men have to obediently fork out the money to please their wives?

Who dares not to pay?!

At this moment, Owen received a surprising message: The Young Chairman of the board, Tio Group's CEO's son, Kavendi, is actually coming to Huaya to oversee the operations personally!

He expressed a great interest in the matters here at Huaya, and wants to conduct an on-site investigation, while also meeting Xu Hao.

Owen and Ji Lihui were instantly overjoyed; they are bound to win this competition. Although it might take a while, winning is all that matters.

If they can win in front of Kavendi, it would greatly benefit their future career advancements.

Though they say serving a king is like serving a tiger, they're willing to make this high-stakes gamble, betting on their future careers.

On the same afternoon, Kavendi arrived. Owen hosted him in the presidential suite of Modu International Hotel, inviting some young women to serve him.

After reviewing the materials here, Kavendi raised his head and said, "Interesting, it seems Xu Hao should not be underestimated. He managed to turn a small, bankrupt company into its current size—quite impressive."

Owen quickly replied, "Young Chairman, you're joking. He's only counting on the financial backers behind him, and his martial arts prowess is strong, too. You see, his history of making a fortune has always been accompanied by combat. How can he compare to you as a real entrepreneur? In the marketplace, he isn't even fit to tie your shoelaces!"

Kavendi waved his hand, sending the young women out, and said, "No need to flatter me. I know where the gap between Tio Group and Xu Hao lies. He can disregard the rules and act against us, but we cannot, because our martial arts skills are not his match. This causes us to act cautiously and not dare to confront him openly—this is the reason."

"Young Chairman, you're absolutely right!"

Owen immediately felt he had found a kindred spirit and exclaimed, "Indeed, Xu Hao's martial arts strength is formidable. We only dare to compete with him in the marketplace, but in reality, when we speak to him, we must tread carefully, fearing he might overturn the table. We don't have a strong fighter to counterbalance him, so we have to act with extra caution."

Kavendi nodded slightly, saying, "I understand the difficulties on your end. That's why the board is seeking ways to find a method to counter Xu Hao—not necessarily having to defeat him; as long as we fear him not, it's enough."

"Really?! That's great news! If we can limit Xu Hao's martial arts prowess, he would be like a toothless tiger, unable to demonstrate much strength!" Owen was overjoyed. If they could limit Xu Hao's martial prowess, why would he need to speak so cautiously with Xu Hao anymore?

Even if he verbally sparred with Xu Hao, he would be completely unafraid!

Kavendi nodded slightly, "Of course, it's true. I believe it won't take long before we find a way. After all, Xu Hao is not invincible, and as long as we offer a high enough price, we'll certainly find someone."

"Well... why don't we just take out Xu Hao? Wouldn't that resolve everything once and for all?" Owen suddenly gestured slicing at his neck and said.

Kavendi slightly shook his head, "That certainly won't do. Our Tio Group's share in the Huaya cosmetics market has never met our expectations, so we need significant exposure. A bet with Xu Hao on new products can garner us substantial exposure."

"After all, Xu Hao now represents the Huaya cosmetics industry. If he loses, many people would become disheartened and give up on competing with our Tio Group. By then, the Huaya Market would completely open up to us—that's what we want."

"Hahaha! Ultimately, Xu Hao is nothing but a stepping stone for us! Young Chairman, your thinking is truly high-level; I would never have thought of this." Owen immediately praised him.

"Hahaha! From the moment Xu Hao decided to oppose our Tio Group, he was destined to be nothing more than our stepping stone! A mere local Huaya small group, daring to rival a giant like our Tio Group—who gave him the courage? It's utterly ridiculous!" Kavendi sneered and mocked Xu Hao.
