On the eve of her promotion, she was reported.
There are only seven pages of reporting materials——
Six pages are the M&A model she made by herself.
The last page is an old appraisal report from twenty years ago.
Signed by: Her father.
At that moment, Lin Xu realized that the data she thought she controlled were just answers that others had already written.
The next day, she was suspended from promotion, stripped of her authority, and placed on a compliance investigation list.
Everyone is waiting for a result——
Someone needs to be responsible for this "data problem".
And she is just the most suitable.
But when she returned to the old city, dug out the revised compensation agreement, and met the engineers who were marginalized back then, she discovered that——
Twenty years ago, someone deliberately drove down asset values.
Twenty years later, this set of contaminated data is being repackaged to promote a multi-billion-level merger and acquisition.
Her father didn't make a miscalculation.
He refused to sign.
——So it was erased.
When capital began to raise its cards, boards of directors split, and banks tightened credit, a war over control quietly began.
She was told to shut up.
Someone wanted her to take the blame.
Someone also reminded her - don't check.
But she already had that recording.
If it becomes public, the project will collapse, capital will get out of control, and everyone will be dragged down.
If she stays silent, she can keep her position and even be promoted.
Choice is never right or wrong.
But which side to take.
Gu Chengzhou asked her: "If you have to choose, which side do you stand on?"
Lin Xu didn't answer.
Because she began to understand——
She should not be just a pawn in this game.
What she wants to do is to be a chess player.
So when that email appeared, it didn't feel like an accident, but more like a precisely calculated moment.
