Chapter 972: Chapter 823: Five Steps and Five Hundred Steps_2

Bird Tottori opened a black briefcase, revealing neat stacks of hundred-yen RMB bills.

"This is just a token of our first meeting, a small gesture, please Mr. Wang accept it with a smile," Ikuta Takashi stood up and bowed deeply, showing his sincerity.

Wang Ge simply gestured for his younger brother to put the money away.

"Mr. Ikuta, I must admire your ability to find me, yet I am merely a disabled person struggling with life, how could I possibly help you?" Wang Ge purposefully evaded.

Ikuta Takashi knew this was just a test of his determination: "Mr. Wang is too modest. Back when Zhu Cheng was a doctor, he was morally corrupt and had disregard for human life. It was Mr. Wang who fearlessly uncovered Zhu Cheng’s monstrous nature and exposed his atrocities for all to see. As a result, Zhu Cheng faced severe punishment. Unfortunately, the scoundrel now finds himself in smooth waters, taking the position of the CEO of Anning Insurance’s Southeast Asian subsidiary, with a yearly salary of ten million, surrounded by beauties and luxury cars, basking in wealth and glory, while you, sir, have fallen into such circumstances, it’s truly—"

Wang Ge waved his hand, suppressing his anger: "No need to say more. I want to know just how resolute you are in dealing with Zhu Cheng?"

Whenever Ikuta Takashi mentioned Zhu Cheng’s current situation, Wang Ge was so furious he felt like vomiting blood. Zhu Cheng had become a CEO with an annual salary over ten million, while he was reduced to this state. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

"Mr. Wang, I can candidly say that to take him down, to see him ruined, we will spare no expense. That is our determination—But you should know, I have no personal grudges against Zhu Cheng. He’s merely a business rival. So I must clarify, taking him down is just a means to an end; my ultimate goal is the total destruction of Anning Insurance’s reputation. Simply defeating him has no value to me. Destroying Anning Insurance’s reputation while taking him down—that is the result we desire."

Since Ikuta Takashi already had preliminary contact with Bird Tottori, he spoke directly about his true intentions.

Wang Ge sneered: "Very well, but let me also be clear: I can help you achieve your target, but my target is Zhu Cheng. I have no interest in Anning Insurance. If it’s just about defeating a business rival for you, I’m not interested, and you may leave."

"No, Mr. Wang, it seems we have different targets, but actually, they align perfectly. We must destroy Zhu Cheng to have a chance at annihilating Anning Insurance. So essentially, our targets are the same. You can confidently pursue your own goals," Ikuta Takashi said with conviction.

"Actually, achieving the target is not difficult. It just requires some time for planning and mobilizing a substantial amount of resources, especially media resources, which demands significant financial backing."

"Do not worry about that. Our support is limitless. May I hear your thoughts, Mr. Wang?"

Wang Ge adjusted the armrests of his wheelchair, sitting up straight. He seemed to have found his life’s value and regained his fighting spirit.

Wang Ge pondered for a moment and said: "Do you know where Zhu Cheng’s greatest weakness lies? And what is our biggest advantage?"

Ikuta Takashi shook his head: "I am slow-witted and haven’t yet found his fatal weakness, nor do I understand what our advantage over Zhu Cheng could be."

A sly smile crossed Wang Ge’s face: "His biggest weakness is that he has a bottom line, and our greatest advantage is—we have no bottom line."

"What do you mean by—" Ikuta Takashi asked, puzzled.

Bird Tottori immediately explained on the side: "Mr. Wang means—Zhu Cheng has a conscience, morals that bind him, while I am without conscience, despicable and shameless."

Ikuta Takashi turned to look at Bird Tottori, his eyes wide open, wondering how he could speak so bluntly. It was the truth, certainly, but it shouldn’t be said like that.

"My apologies, my apologies—"

Ikuta Takashi said this with a straight face, unblushing and unflinching.

"Your friend here is certainly more frank than you. To be honest, if you had found me earlier, you would not have had such a hard time being constantly suppressed by Zhu Cheng."

"I am ashamed of my incompetence, but now that I’ve seen the light, I hope for Mr. Wang’s strong support," Ikuta Takashi sighed.

"But how exactly do we do it? I’m very interested to know."

Ikuta Takashi leaned forward eagerly; Mr. Wang really had a way of speaking to his heart.

"Do you know how I brought him to his knees back then? To tell you the truth, I had no personal feud with him. It was a sheer coincidence. I was a reporter who wanted to stand out. What should I do? Only manufacturing sensational news can highlight one’s value. You think I didn’t know the surgery he performed was a regular Colon Stenting Surgery? But I deliberately confused truth and fiction, pretending to be unaware. I wrote as if he left the patient’s intestines out on purpose because they couldn’t pay, making the false seem true. That way, I could stir up the audience’s emotions. Once their emotions are stirred, who cares about right or wrong? And with the patient belonging to vulnerable groups, everyone sympathizes with the weak. We need to exploit this fact. So he became a rat crossing the street, everyone hating and ranting about him. Who would care to investigate the truth? To defeat your opponent, it’s easy: smear Zhu Cheng thoroughly, and then, by association, smear Anning Insurance. The entire plan has to be meticulous; if you do it, do it so that your opponent is caught off guard and unable to fight back," Wang Ge said through gritted teeth.
