Anchor with goods, the price of F2 is very reasonable, right?

Chapter 258 I Failed to Protect You
"That's right." Jiang Liangliang analyzed, "I suspect that all this is within their expectations. They provoked internal conflicts in the company and then caused the orbital module accident, just to get you to take action in person and free up your hands to defeat them. And now, their seizure of the control room is more like a feint."

"Their real purpose is to undermine our team's confidence and shake our foundation!" Wang Yang suddenly realized, "Only when the entire company is in disarray and loses its fighting spirit can they take advantage of the situation and seize the space elevator in one fell swoop!"

Liang Yuzhu took a breath and said, "Then what should we do?"

Wang Yang clenched his fists, his eyes sparkling. "They want to play psychological warfare, so we will fight to the end! From now on, the whole company will be united in facing the outside world, and we must not allow any disturbance! At the same time, we must quickly find out the spies they have planted inside the company and eliminate them completely!"

"Understood!" the two heroines responded in unison.

Just then, Tieshan rushed in in a hurry.

"Boss, something terrible has happened!" He was panting, panic written all over his face, "Scott Scott betrayed us!"

"What?!" Wang Yang was struck by lightning, "Tieshan, explain clearly!"

Tieshan gnashed his teeth and said, "When I was fighting desperately in the control room just now, I saw with my own eyes that Scott brought people from the consortium to rush in and helped them control the system! He colluded with the enemy and cooperated with them from inside and outside!"

Wang Yang couldn't believe his ears. Scott was his right-hand man, and they had been through thick and thin together, like brothers. How could he...
"Boss, now that things have come to this, we can't afford to be sad and depressed." Tieshan gritted his teeth and said, "The most urgent task right now is to regain control of the space elevator as soon as possible. Among our brothers following Scott, there may be a few traitors. We must find out as soon as possible to prevent the traitor from continuing to cause trouble!"

Wang Yang took a deep breath and suppressed the shock and pain in his heart. Tieshan was right. He couldn't afford to be sentimental at this moment.

"Okay, I get it." He said in a deep voice, "Tieshan, you take your people to thoroughly investigate the entire company, and don't let anyone off the hook! Make sure to find those traitors and give everyone justice!"

"Yes!" Tieshan took the order and left.

Wang Yang turned to Liang Yuzhu and Jiang Liangliang and whispered, "Yuzhu, contact the board of directors as soon as possible to report the latest situation and strive for their continued support. Liangliang, the media publicity is now in your hands. You must stabilize public opinion and not let the enemy take advantage of the situation."

The two understood each other and left in a hurry.

Wang Yang was the only one left in the huge conference room.

He slowly walked to the window and looked at the endless stream of cars and people downstairs. Not long ago, this was his kingdom, and the space elevator he was proud of stood on this land, reaching into the sky.

But now, the sky is full of dark clouds and the wind is rising. Someone is trying to seize his ideal kingdom from within. What's more terrifying is that the traitor is lurking beside him and may give him a fatal blow at any time.

"When did this all start?" Wang Yang muttered to himself, "What did I do wrong to make a brother like Scott betray me?"

He suddenly thought of George, the big guy who risked his life for his brother.

"George, you in heaven would never have imagined that this day would come." He choked, his eyes blurred with tears.

Yeah, if George were still here, would things be different?
Wang Yang wiped away his tears silently, closed his eyes, and said silently in his heart: "George, and all the brothers who sacrificed for their dreams, don't worry. I will never let you down."

"In the face of betrayal, I will never back down; in the face of a strong enemy, I will never bow my head. This Wang Yang is no pushover!"

He suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as torches, and he became extremely determined again.

It's time to let those who covet him know that this "newcomer" young man also has blood and backbone!

Wang Yang strode out of the meeting room and returned to his office.

He sat down on the chair, picked up the intercom on the table, and dialed an unexpected number -

"Hey, gentlemen from the consortium, long time no see." His tone was sinister and full of sarcasm. "I heard that you have been living a comfortable life recently. You have seized my control room and bribed my confidants. Do you think you have a sure win?"

"Haha, Mr. Wang is really arrogant." A scornful voice came from the other end of the phone, "Why, you just got a taste of betrayal and you're already unable to sit still?"

"I advise you to hand over your technology honestly and enjoy your retirement life." Another voice agreed coldly, "Otherwise, it won't be as simple as your company closing down. We can kill you."

"Just you guys?" Wang Yang sneered, "You guys really overestimate yourselves."

"I admit that I was a little careless during this period. Perhaps it was because I had been in the position of the victorious general for too long that I forgot to be on guard against the knife around me."

"But I must remind you, don't let this short-lived victory go to your heads. Do you think that you can make me submit to you by inciting a few disloyal guys and seizing a shabby control room? That's too naive!"

"Do you think the value of the space elevator lies only in these systems and drawings? Let me tell you, its real core lies here!"

Wang Yang pointed to his head and said, "Yes, it's the one who created it! It's me, my team, and all the people who worked so hard for it! Without us, what you robbed would be nothing but a pile of junk!"

"Back then, I started from scratch. Wasn't it with the help of these people and these brains, working hard step by step? Now you have only robbed me of my body, but you can never take away my soul!"

"As long as my team is still here, as long as the people here are willing to follow me, I have the confidence to make a comeback!"

"When the time comes, I will make you regret it and make you pay the price for your betrayal!"

"Wang Yang! Don't be so arrogant! Do you think you can turn the tables?!"

"Why can't I?" Wang Yang sneered, "If I don't even have this awareness, how can I be worthy of sitting in this position?"

"Do you think I will surrender just because Scott is a traitor? I'm telling you, I'm swearing right here and now that it won't be long before I capture you and take back everything that belongs to me!"

"And you will forever become the laughing stock of the business world and become prisoners!"

After saying that, Wang Yang hung up the phone heavily.

At the same time, in a dark basement thousands of miles away, Scott was tied to an iron chair by several burly men, covered with bruises and dying.

"Assholes, you despicable people!" He cursed with gritted teeth, "I will never give in and will never betray Wang Yang."

"Really? But he doesn't seem to think so." A gloomy voice sounded faintly, "He just said on the phone that you are an unforgivable traitor."

"You're talking nonsense! How could the boss...

"I'm not lying to you. How about you listen to this?"

As he spoke, a recording was played. In it, Wang Yang's angry accusation was heard: "Scott is a traitor! He colluded with the enemy and cooperated with the enemy from inside and outside. I will make him pay the price for his betrayal!"

Scott's pupils shrank suddenly, and he couldn't believe his ears. "No, this is impossible. The boss obviously trusts me the most." He muttered to himself, his voice trembling.

"Haha, wake up, poor Scott." The man sneered, "You worked hard for him, and in the end you got this kind of revenge. Tell me, what do you want?"

Scott was speechless, the huge mental shock brought him to the brink of collapse.

"Well, gentlemen, I think he should be aware of his situation now." The man turned to his accomplices, "From now on, it's up to you."

Several burly men sneered and slowly approached Scott, wrenching the handles with a creaking sound. Scott closed his eyes in despair, with two lines of tears sliding down his eyes.

At the same time, thousands of miles away, Wang Yang smashed his cell phone to pieces, took a long breath, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Scott, it seems that I was right about you. You really didn't betray me."

"Don't worry, brother. I will definitely rescue you. I will also make those people pay the price for deceiving our feelings!"

Wang Yang looked around, his eyes sweeping across the concerned and loyal faces.

Liang Yuzhu, Jiang Liangliang, Tieshan... comrades-in-arms who could be trusted with life and death, were looking at him with full trust.

"Come on, friends, let's fight a good fight and teach them a lesson!"

Before he finished speaking, everyone raised their fists and shouted, "We will defend our foundation to the death! We will never let anyone get involved!"

Wang Yang's eyes filled with tears, and he regained his confidence in victory. Yes, with so many brothers who are loyal to him, how could he give up so easily?

"Don't worry, George, Tieshan, and all the heroes who sacrificed their lives." He swore secretly in his heart, "I will never let you down, build a space elevator, and fulfill our great dream!"

Straightening his back and regrouping, Wang Yang led his team and continued to move forward towards the dawn.
In the next few days, Wang Yang and his team worked day and night without sleep or food.

They secretly gathered all the core members of the company and worked out a thorough counterattack plan in a hidden safe house.

At the same time, Tieshan also led his special team to start a company-wide investigation, carefully checking every department and leaving no corner untouched, vowing to uncover all the spies.

Hard work pays off. Soon, with Tieshan's efforts, several traitors in the company were arrested one after another. It turned out that they had been bribed by the consortium and had been doing evil in secret.

"Boss, you are wise! We have finally eradicated the cancer within the company!" Tieshan excitedly reported to Wang Yang.

Wang Yang nodded, his face solemn: "This is just the first step. The enemy is in the open, we are in the dark, we must strike them by surprise. Inform Liang Yuzhu and ask her to contact the police as soon as possible and escort these people to the public security department for prosecution."

"At the same time, inform all the networks of your connections. From now on, all human, material and financial resources will be used to prepare for the team's counterattack. I want to see how powerful this damn consortium is!" Wang Yang's eyes were like lightning and his morale was high.

In the following days, a life-and-death battle took place fiercely in secret.

After seizing the control room, the consortium was arrogant and thought the outcome was settled. Little did they know that Wang Yang had already set up a trap in secret, waiting for them to fall into it.

Wang Yang, on the other hand, broke his usual low profile and began to publicize the bright prospects of the space elevator in major media, calling on the whole society to pay attention to this epoch-making great initiative.

At the same time, many groups of people began to attack separately, contacting various forces such as government, academia, and society, making friends and building up momentum.

Although the consortium was powerful, it was also surrounded by enemies. Gradually, they also realized that something was wrong and began to feel uneasy.

Finally, on a dark and windy night, the storm suddenly hit.

When the head of the consortium was about to lie down on the bed and have a good sleep, he was horrified to find that his room had been surrounded by countless special police officers armed with live ammunition!
"Don't move! Police!"

Several burly men broke into the room, pinned him to the ground in the blink of an eye, and put handcuffs on him!
"You. What do you want to do?!" he asked in a trembling voice, his teeth chattering.

"Haha, Mr. So-and-so, I didn't expect that a big boss of a consortium is so afraid of the police in private." A familiar voice sounded outside the door.

Looking closely, I saw Wang Yang walking in leisurely with a determined smile on his face.

"You bastard! What tricks did you play?!" someone was furious.

"A trick? No, I call this fighting evil by law." Wang Yang sneered, "You coveted my career and deliberately set up a trap to frame me. I have solid evidence for all these crimes. Now, just wait for the law to punish you!"

As he spoke, he waved to the special police, who immediately escorted the man out and disappeared into the night.

In the control room thousands of miles away, the special team led by Tieshan had already taken control. All the internal and external traitors were caught.

"Boss! We've taken back the control room!" Tieshan reported excitedly on the communicator, "We've captured all those bastards!"

"Very good." Wang Yang showed a relieved smile, "You should immediately organize people to thoroughly check all systems to ensure that there are no mistakes."

"Yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Yang came to a dark room.

This is where Scott was imprisoned.

Wang Yang slowly pushed the door open and walked in. The room was completely dark. With the help of the flashlight, he saw Scott huddled in the corner.

"Boss" Scott sobbed, tears streaming down his face, "I'm sorry. I failed to protect the space elevator."

"Silly boy, why are you saying these things?" Wang Yang hugged him emotionally, "It's my fault that I failed to protect you."

"You don't blame me?"

"Why should I blame you? Why do I blame you for risking your life for your brother and refusing to yield even if you die?" Wang Yang smiled through his tears, "How could I blame you? I am so lucky to have a brother like you!"

"Boss!" Scott burst into tears and hugged Wang Yang tightly.

"Okay, stop crying. Follow me closely from now on, we still have a tough battle to fight." Wang Yang persuaded gently.
