Hua Country, Zhongxing dia top floor.
Jiang Chuanning stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the custom black communicator on his wrist vibrating, projecting the holographic image of Yan Yueqing. Behind her was the starry backdrop of the Jiang Family’s central operations, imposing and formidable.
"Teacher, ’Yuheng’ is turning, Hua Country leads," Yan Yueqing spoke rapidly, "Terminate funding for the seven companies on the list imdiately and restructure their managent. Especially Guangqi Materials, Changkang Biotechnology, and Nancheng Hengtai Investnt — you know the pest list better than I do."
Jiang Chuanning adjusted his gold-rimd glasses, a cold curve forming at the corner of his mouth: "It should have been cleaned up long ago!" His fingertips moved swiftly on the virtual screen, "Notifications have been sent; within a day, everyone on the list must be swept out the door!"
Guangqi Materials.
Hailed as the cornerstone of South City’s "new material empire," now shrouded in an air of stale inertia.
The glass-walled top-floor conference room, with sunlight glaring, could not penetrate the unchanged decade-long arrogance and cunning on the faces of the three vice presidents.
Zhou Qiang (technology), Li Ming (production), Wang Hai (marketing), were animatedly discussing this afternoon’s golf ga and mocking the so-called "headquarters special envoy" about to arrive.
"Scoff, ’special envoy’?" Li Ming picked at his nails, not even looking up, "Those old n in the offices upstairs, what do they know about materials? What do they know about production? They might not even know which way our plant’s gate faces! Whoever they send is just for show."
Wang Hai, with his legs crossed, his corpulent body sinking into the leather sofa, chuckled, "Who cares who cos, the rules are the sa. The ’new material research budget’ reported by the tech departnt, as usual, I’ll slash it by half, the rest... heh heh, the usual rule, the dividends from Chunshan Hot Spring Resort are coming."
Zhou Qiang, as the vice president of technology, should have had so backbone, yet at this mont, he nodded obsequiously: "That’s right, President Wang is wise. Anyway, those projects won’t bear fruit in ten or eight years, and investing is like tossing money into the ocean, it’s better to..." He made a rubbing-fingers gesture.
The conference room door silently slid open.
In walked a young man, tall and dressed in a sharply tailored black suit, eyes behind gold-rimd glasses sharp as an eagle’s.
Behind him was an assistant in a similarly black and gold uniform, with a cold visage and holding an encrypted tablet. Without knocking, without pleasantries, they seed to be the rightful owners of the conference room.
"I am the newly appointed CEO from headquarters, Jiang He." The man’s voice was devoid of any emotion, like cold tal, "Fully entrusted by Director Jiang Xiaoxing, I’m here to imdiately take over all affairs of Guangqi Materials."
The air froze for a second.
"Pfft..." Wang Hai was the first to laugh out loud, his fat shaking, "Oh my, Jiang Xiaoxing? A newly appointed greenhorn? What does she know? And fully entrusted? Young Jiang, it’s good for young people to have drive, but don’t be fooled. Guangqi Materials, was built by the three of us step by step!"
They had heard that a corporate president was parachuting in from abroad, and judging by the information, she was a young girl in her twenties, probably the daughter of the forr boss coming here to gild the lily.
Li Ming chid in, with the arrogance of a technician: "President Jiang, right? Take over? How much do you know about Guangqi’s technical barriers, production processes, and custor resources? Without us, Guangqi would have to shut down tomorrow!"
Zhou Qiang pretended to diate, while in fact applying pressure: "President Jiang, don’t be impulsive. How about this, get familiar with the environnt first, we have an important client eting this afternoon, and when we return, we can slowly..."
"No need." Jiang He interrupted him, the assistant’s tablet lighting up. "Based on Director Jiang Xiaoxing’s Order No. 003 and the ’Yuheng’ system’s comprehensive audit report on Guangqi Materials, this is to formally notify the three of you — due to suspicions of serious embezzlent, comrcial benefit transfer, dereliction of duty, and illegal transfer of technical patents, starting imdiately, your positions at Guangqi Materials are hereby terminated."
"What?!"
"Nonsense!"
"According to what?!"
The three were like cats whose tails had been stepped on, instantly bristling.
Wang Hai slamd the table, spittle nearly spraying on Jiang He’s face: "Terminate our positions? What a joke! Who do you think you are! Who does Jiang Xiaoxing think she is! We’re the vice presidents of this company, and she thinks she can fire us without going through the board just because she’s a parachuted CEO?"
Jiang He adjusted the gold-rimd glasses on his nose, his gaze behind the lenses as sharp as a scalpel, precisely cutting through Wang Hai’s swollen anger. "The board of directors?"
His voice was so calm it bore no ripples, his finger gently sliding on the encrypted tablet held by the assistant. "The Jiang Holding Group has completed the final equity restructuring and business registration change three hours ago. According to the latest articles and irrevocable authorization, Ms. Jiang Xiaoxing is the sole actual controller of the group, with the highest decision-making and disposal rights."
The tablet’s screen flashed, projecting a docunt with a bold red e-seal and the national business registration watermark on the conference room’s floor-to-ceiling glass wall.
The title prominently read "Jiang Holding Group Equity Restructuring and Actual Controller Change Confirmation", with Jiang Xiaoxing’s electronic signature at the end, sharp as a blade.
"As for your permissions..." Jiang He hadn’t finished when sudden changes arose.
"Beep beep beep — permission revoked! Beep beep beep — permission revoked!"
The ear-piercing electronic alarm almost simultaneously erupted from the smart devices on the wrists of Wang Hai, Li Ming, and Zhou Qiang, the red light flashing urgently, like their faces being choked.
Wang Hai jerked his head down, frantically tapping his diamond-studded wristwatch terminal, but the screen stubbornly displayed a blood-red prohibition symbol and a line of small text: "Access permission has been permanently frozen by the ’Yuheng’ system (Order source: Jiang Xiaoxing)." His private phone screen on the table also abruptly lit up, bank notification ssages rolling out coldly one after another:
[Huaguo Bank] Your account ending 8810 completed a transaction transfer of Hua Coin 18,500,000.00, balance...
[Huaguo Bank] Your account ending 8810 completed a transaction transfer of Hua Coin 22,300,000.00, balance...
[Huaguo Bank] Your account ending 8810 completed a transaction transfer of Hua Coin 15,800,000.00, balance...
Following that, was a distinct deposit information with a cold, golden border:
[All Stars Bank] Your account * has received a special severance compensation transfer, amount: Hua Coin 120,000,000.00 (CNY 120,000,000.00). Note: Paynt made under the "Advanced Managent Personnel Mandatory Termination Agreent (Supplentary Article 7)" and the "Yuheng" audit report (No. GHQ-ZC-003) liquidation paynt. Payer: Jiang Holding Group (Jiang Xiaoxing).
Almost the mont the bank information appeared, the heavy wooden conference room door was pushed open silently yet forcefully.
Four security personnel in black and gold uniforms, as robust as iron towers, filed in.
