Chapter 758: Chapter 754: Harris Dunn, Successfully Bewildered
Harris Dunn had recently been tormented by the failed setup of the Leutonia branch.
Although Dunn Group was a large enterprise, it had gone through several crises in the past year.
First, the stock price plummeted due to the Securities Regulation Commission investigation, and then the Lewis Group canceled all cooperation with Dunn Group, causing the stock price to plummet again.
The two steep declines had seriously damaged Dunn Group, and it had not yet recover.
The Leutonia branch was Harris Dunn’s last-ditch bet.
He had thought that within a year, Dunn Group would be able to rise again with the momentum of this branch.
However, the branch failed as Mason Lilliput and the Thompsons in Leutonia were wiped out. The US$ 68,340,550 he had invested was completely lost!
The finance director called again, asking him where to get money for the upcoming expenses?
Because the previous working capital on the books had been transferred to Leutonia to handle the branch matters.
“Except for expenses and payments, don’t we still have many bills that need to be collected from customers?”
The finance director sighed, “Mr. Dunn, the expenditure amount I mentioned has already been deducted from the recovered bills.”
Harris Dunn was also annoyed, “Can you ask the other party to postpone the payment?”
The finance director felt troubled, “I already have, but this month a large number of customers postponed payments from the previous month and even the month before that…”
Since Harris Dunn began diverting cash for the Leutonia branch, Dunn Group’s working capital had been gradually decreasing.
The finance director had reminded Harris Dunn, but he always thought that as long as the Leutonia branch started production, this investment would be recovered soon.
“Alright, you try to find a way there, and I’ll think of other ways here.”
Harris Dunn hung up the finance director’s call, feeling very annoyed. He took out his phone and casually browsed to relieve some of his stress.
By that time, he found out about the setback of Dunn Group’s Leutonia branch on the top search.
However, this top search was at the 80 or 90th position and seemed to have no heat.
There were only dozens of comments and barely over a hundred reposts.
Looking at the comments, most of them were disbelieving.
Light Yellow Long Dress: “What’s going on? This kind of news with no proof, no evidence, and not even a picture, is it considered news?”
Serious Pig: “Obviously it’s a rumor! Dunn Group’s strength makes it barely in the top ten enterprises in the Federation. If placed in Leutonia, it would support one-tenth of the people of Leutonia. The leader of Leutonia is not a fool, how could they refuse?”
Flowers on the Window Sill: “Yeah, it is so easy to start a rumor, but hard to dispel it!”
Moon and Osmanthus: “Let it go, this kind of rumor with no pictures or evidence is obviously fake!”
At first, Harris Dunn was worried, but seeing these comments, he felt slightly relieved.
However, he had always been cautious and made a call to the public relations director to investigate the source of the top search.
Soon, the public relations director called back.
“Mr. Dunn, this blogger only has a few hundred fans. I checked their certification and found that they are a small business owner. I also confirmed with our secretary office that this small business had a minor collaboration with us last year.”
Harris Dunn secretly sighed with relief when he heard this.
“Alright, as long as you have verified it.”
The public relations director asked again, “Mr. Dunn, do we need to warn them to delete the post and apologize?”
Harris Dunn didn’t want to make a big fuss, “Let’s observe the follow-up first. If it continues to be like this with no waves and heat, there’s no need to bother with it.”
The top search report did not cause a significant reaction in Harris Dunn, just as Richelle Dunn had predicted.
By the afternoon, Richelle Dunn checked the top search, and it was still in its original position. The number of comments had increased by only a dozen or so, and the number of reposts had not reached 150.
Richelle Dunn was relieved and exited the app.
“Richelle, Roy may not have time to manage Lewis Group recently. Do you want me to help you find some assistants?”
Kennedy Green was in a coma, leaving the entire responsibility of managing the business to Roy Lewis.
With Roy Lewis fully engaged in the Federation’s affairs, the matters of the Lewis Group naturally fell on Richelle Dunn.
Maggie Mitchell felt guilty and wanted to find someone to help lighten Richelle Dunn’s burden.
Richelle Dunn shook her head, “Not for now. Nathan is a reliable help, and Timmy and Timothy can also help with some simple tasks!”
Maggie Mitchell was surprised, “Are they still on internships?”
Timothy raised his head and said, “Aunt Maggie, my brother and I get a share of the work we do. So if mommy needs help, just ask. My brother and I also want to save as much startup capital as possible!”
Timmy also said, “Yeah, the more startup capital, the more dowry we can give to our sister in the future!”
Maggie Mitchell was amused by their serious words, “Oh my, you little darlings are so sensible!”
Richelle Dunn smiled at her, “See, I told you not to worry about it. We might not have other resources, but when it comes to labor, we are more than enough!”
