Don’t ever stick to staid grammar rules. Try saying both the sentences and you’ll realize that the first one sounds more right. It indeed is. Why would anyone say ‘he wanted to MAKE his business GO smoothly’ when the right thing to say would be ‘he wanted to run his business smoothly’?
Now take your pick::
He wanted to make his rival’s business go flat
He wanted to make his rival’s business go flatly

#2. To describe the word “go” you need an adverb. Smoothly is an adverb.
