And then it was another full day of chaos.
Everyone was under the illusion that they were reliving the previous day, as if they hadn’t left that day behind at all. The script was exactly the same, and it was a unilateral slaughter, just like before.
This situation lasted for a full three days.
On the fourth day, Lu Mingzhen finally couldn’t bear it any longer and called his son, “Stop your business trip and come back to solve the problem for me right now!”
Lu Lingche’s voice was rather indifferent: “I went on a business trip as per your orders, for half a month. Both you and I clearly understand why you sent me away. It was just because you felt that I’ve let my elder brother lose face, that I’ve made Shengling Group lose reputation, and wanted to banish me as a result. I’ve already stayed away from the corporation as you wished. What more do you want me to do?”
Lu Mingzhen fumed with anger: “This is a special circumstance, you come back immediately! Your work there can be taken up by someone else. You don’t need to do it anymore.”
“Is it really appropriate for you to change your orders this way? And besides, don’t you remember what you said to me when I took over the corporation three months ago?”
Lu Mingzhen was choked by the words and lowered his volume: “Yes, I did say you weren’t as good as your elder brother and didn’t allow you to recreate the firewall. You need to understand that your elder brother had passed away just over a month at that time, and I just wanted to keep something of his, even if it was just a virtual firewall that he designed, I didn’t want to change it.”
“So, now that my elder brother has been dead for five months, are you ready to change the thing that he designed? This seems to be your true feelings towards him.”
Lu Mingzhen was nearly fainted with rage: “What’s this got to do with your elder brother? The company’s operations are a mess because of that hacker. If this continues, no one will be able to work! You hurry back and take care of that hacker for me!”
“I don’t even know who the hacker is, how am I supposed to solve the problem for you? I haven’t finished the business here yet, I’ll come back when it’s done.”
Lu Mingzhen does understand his son after all, knowing that his son wouldn’t yield to an authoritarian style of parenting. He was silent for a long time before saying: “When you were in junior high school, didn’t you create a firewall for your school and won the outstanding young person award for that year because of it?”
“Such a minor affair, I’m surprised you still remember.”

“This is not a minor matter, you’ve always been clever, I know you. You come back. If you can’t deal with that hacker, at the very least, you should rebuild the corporation’s firewall. We can’t allow anyone to just break into the corporation’s computer system. We don’t know how many confidential files have been leaked out. We just can’t go on like this.”
“That was a long time ago, I don’t know how to make a firewall now. Doesn’t the corporation have a team of professionals doing this? Let them do it.”
With gritted teeth, Lu Mingzhen finally said: “Alright, when you come back, I won’t interfere in your management of the corporation anymore. I’ll fully delegate the power to you!”
“Dad, I really don’t know how to make a firewall.”
“The right to appoint and dismiss vice presidents of each department will also be handed over to you. From now on, you can choose suitable people to work for the corporation and cultivate your own team.”
“Hmm, I’m already booking the tickets.”
Lu Mingzhen was taken aback and then gruffly said: “Book the earliest flight!”
“Got it.”
After hanging up the phone, Lu Lingche was in a good mood. This trip wasn’t in vain after all.
He didn’t expect the hacker to be so helpful. He single-handedly brought down the corporation’s entire team of engineers, forcing his father to invite him back.
After taking over for three and a half months, he finally obtained full control of the corporation.
If that hacker knew he was being used and accidentally did him such a big favor, he would probably be frustrated enough to spit blood..
