The initial confrontation between the Chu Group and Tang Jian'an along with nine other tycoons ended with the Chu Group's complete victory.
The series of tactics from the nine tycoons, aiming to suppress the strong rise of the Chu Group to assert their unshakeable dominance in the business world, ultimately resulted in a heavy loss.
Each lost thirty billion; although these thirty billion might seem insignificant compared to their wealth, they do indeed hurt.
Most losses were non-liquid assets, suddenly leaving a gap in their movable assets, causing each of them severe distress. Coupled with the loss of face, it's no exaggeration to say that this time the nine tycoons suffered a dual loss of reputation and wealth.
The nine tycoons, with various emotions, fell silent without making any further moves.
This doesn't mean they've become honest; they're merely waiting for the next opportunity to strike, in an attempt to wash away the prior shame.
