Chapter 844 A Good Plan
The next day.
Before eight o'clock, all the news about the press conference for the Rodriguez Group's product suddenly disappeared!
The headlines and public opinion that had exploded were also completely cleaned up.
It was as if an invisible hand had erased everything about the Rodriguez Group from the previous night.
When Anday rushed into Lawrence's office with media data to report the situation, the tall and imposing Lawrence curled his thin lips into a cold smile, as if he had already anticipated this.
Lawrence raised an eyebrow mockingly, his eyes dark and deep. "Ronnie made a move? Quite forceful."
Anday was a bit anxious. "Lawrence, we worked hard overnight to create some buzz with the new product, and now Ronnie has immediately suppressed it. The news can't break out, and I'm afraid the press conference will just fade away without making any impact."
"Now the Peterson Group dominates in Trento City. If Ronnie uses his influence to suppress us immediately..."
"Don't worry." Lawrence stood by the window, his eyes bloodshot from a sleepless night. He curled his thin lips slightly, "The more forceful his methods, the better it will work for us."
"What do you mean?" Anday was puzzled and a bit confused.
Bryan smiled slightly, looking at Lawrence's stern profile, and said, "Anday, I investigated last night. Almost all the heavy industry companies in Veridiania are paying attention to the Rodriguez Group's press conference. Our new material is unprecedented in the aerospace field and has been used on rockets, making it irreplaceable."
"This is groundbreaking news in the industry. Do you think Ronnie can suppress it just by using his influence in Trento City? When the news is suppressed to a certain point, it will only explode in reverse. You may not understand the public's curiosity."
"The more they suppress it, the more people will discuss it and search for information. Ronnie is suppressing our news to ensure his own company's new product launches smoothly, right?"
"But the product he has is just a defective technology from NexaCore Group. Can it compare to our new material? Just think about those companies that signed large orders with the Peterson Group. They were already confused last night."
"The more Ronnie suppresses our new product, the more they will question the technology Ronnie has. At that time, it will be Jeremy's turn to step in."
Lawrence glanced at Bryan lightly, his thin lips quietly parting, "You truly are my best assistant."
Bryan said, "Mr. Rodriguez, I have seen how you have endured hardships over the past month, leading the Rodriguez Group's lab in research and development, sleepless nights. I have witnessed all your efforts."
"If it weren't to ensure a win against the Peterson Group and the Harrington Group, why would you have to disguise yourself for so long? If I couldn't even understand your intentions, what kind of special assistant would I be?"
"Enough with the flattery." Lawrence gave him a cold look and waved his hand, "Have Jeremy prepare."
At ten in the morning, the Peterson Group and the Harrington Group were about to hold a product launch.
Before that, at nine-thirty, Mars finally contacted Adam, the chairman of NexaCore Group.
Adam stated that the technology they signed over was not problematic.
Mars gritted his teeth and asked, "Then Mr. King, why does Lawrence have the latest product? Where did he get the aerospace technology?"
Adam's response was cold and concise. "Mr. Martin, how would I know? NexaCore Group only signed a cooperation agreement with the Peterson Group and the Harrington Group. I'm not confused about that."
Adam's words made Mars grit his teeth in frustration.
Mars had no choice but to report the situation to Ronnie, who was sitting in the chairman's seat, saying confidently, "Adam means he absolutely did not breach the contract. He is not guilty at all and says he doesn't know about Lawrence's situation."
Ronnie's eyes turned cold; he had anticipated this.
As shrewd as Adam was, he wouldn't breach the contract.
He coldly questioned, "Have you not found out who the boss behind Summit Holdings is?"
Ronnie was vaguely uneasy, thinking it might be Adam.
"It's not Adam," Mars replied, but he was troubled, "The boss of Summit Holdings is too cunning. Since last night, all his information has been wiped clean. My detectives can't even find a single photo."
"Mr. Peterson, the product launch must begin," Rock glanced at Mars, also thinking he was useless.
But the launch couldn't be delayed any longer.
To stabilize the companies that had signed large orders with them, they had to quickly release the product.
Ronnie, with a stern face, took the microphone and smiled calmly in front of multiple media and economic forums, "Good morning, everyone. Two months ago, the Peterson Group and the Harrington Group signed a contract with the great NexaCore Group to introduce aerospace technology."
"For the past two months, the Peterson Group and the Harrington Group have been working hard to develop this cutting-edge technology into practical high-end materials, to benefit future rocket and spacecraft endeavors."
"After two months, the wait is over. The most advanced technology we introduced from NexaCore Group has finally been turned into a product. Today, we officially launch the product."
"But Mr. Peterson!" A reporter in the audience immediately raised his hand, "As far as I know, the Rodriguez Group held a press conference late last night. Their company has also developed materials for rockets and spacecraft, and their material has already been used on a rocket, with data supporting that the rocket launched days ago and is operating stably."
"So, the Rodriguez Group developed the same product earlier than you? And, based on the analysis of the materials on your big screen, the Rodriguez Group's product is more advanced than the Peterson Group and the Harrington Group's product."
"Regarding this, Mr. Peterson, what is your explanation? And if your companies' products are inferior, is there still a need to launch them?"
Rock, sitting in the main seat, glared at the reporter with cold eyes, almost piercing through him.
He signaled the security guards in the venue. The guards immediately moved through the crowd and escorted the reporter out.
Rock took a deep breath and turned to the equally grim-faced Ronnie, "It must be someone Lawrence hired."
"Then why didn't you thoroughly check the venue?" Ronnie blamed him.
If it weren't for the fact that the Peterson Group was still the leader in Trento City, Rock wouldn't have tolerated him.
He forced a smile, "Mr. Peterson! Given the current situation, we need to unite and suppress the Rodriguez Group's press conference. What's the point of blaming each other now?"
