As the end of the year approached, with only half a month until the Spring Festival, Gu Bai received several calls from Xu Hong almost every day, all focused on just one topic: when Gu Bai would co ho.
Gu Bai was truly left with no choice but to temporarily placate Xu Hong by promising to return ho tomorrow, which finally bought him a peaceful day.
Hongye Building Materials Company was a bit remote, and it took the convoy from Black Swan Group, along with the notary staff from the Construction Bank, a full half-hour to get there. When they arrived downstairs at Hongye Building Materials, Gu Yi and three other combat-type robots acted as the most loyal bodyguards, standing a few steps behind Gu Bai, wearing sunglasses that concealed their gaze.
All four were of identical height, precisely two ters, neither too tall nor too short.
Gu Bai was also dressed in a black suit, which was a bit wrinkled from the long car ride, but it only added to his rebellious charm without diminishing his appearance in the least.
On the other side, Ge Aimin stepped out of the Construction Bank vehicle and walked over to Gu Bai with a smile.
As a matter of course, a so-called notarized audit would usually be handled by a few ordinary employees for appearances, and even a director-level person would be reluctant to participate in person, let alone the esteed branch chairman Ge Aiming of the Construction Bank’s Shanghai Branch.
However, since learning yesterday that Gu Bai would be accompanying the audit team to Hongye Building Materials today, Ge Aiming cleared his entire morning schedule to personally join Gu Bai here.
The Black Swan Group convoy included a legal team of four, a security team of four, and several other departnt mbers, totaling over a dozen individuals in black suits standing beside Gu Bai, carrying computers and holding docunts, while only Gu Xin and Gu Si stood beside Gu Bai without speaking.
Standing next to Gu Bai, Ge Aimin also held his head high, but next to the elegant and noble Gu Bai, he instantly gave off the impression of a butler.
"Chairman Gu, shall we go inside first?"
"Shouldn’t we notify them?"
"No need, we inford them yesterday. Besides, Hongye Building Materials can’t possibly raise the funds, not even a billion, and even ten million would be a challenge for them now."
"In that case, let’s proceed."
With that said, Gu Bai put on his trendy sunglasses, ant to show off, and walked towards the building at a leisurely pace.
The group employees behind him walked with a uniform and professional bearing, catching the attention of passersby, with so even looking around for caras, wondering if this was a scene straight from television, as such events rarely happen in real life.
Conversely, the bank employees carrying various audit docunts and machines looked like they were just going through the motions, standing silently at the back of the line.
As the dozen or so individuals walked into the main entrance of Hongye Building Materials, the receptionist, who was idling at the desk, was taken aback.
A banking assistant standing next to Ge Aimin quickly approached and said, "Hello, we’re financial audit personnel from the Construction Bank. We had an appointnt with your Chairman Zhu Hongye yesterday."
The receptionist hurriedly searched through the appointnt records, flipping through them twice before awkwardly responding, "I’m sorry, we don’t have any record of an appointnt with the Construction Bank..."
Upon hearing this, Ge Aimin’s eyebrows furrowed. What does this Zhu Hongye an by this?
At that thought, Ge Aimin’s tone turned cold as he said, "I am Ge Aimin, the branch chairman of the Construction Bank’s Shanghai Branch. You can inform your chairman that I am here for a visit."
Even though he seed submissive like a butler in front of Gu Bai, Ge Aimin was still a top-tier socialite in Shanghai, and his brief statent shocked the receptionist into silence, taking a mont to stamr out a response, "Please wait a mont, I’ll call the chairman’s assistant."
Ge Aimin nodded slightly at this, while Gu Bai, wearing his sunglasses, remained silent the entire ti, as if he were an outsider.
After the receptionist notified the chairman’s assistant, Zhu Hongye rushed over as soon as he got the news.
Zhu Hongye couldn’t fathom why soone as esteed as Ge Aimin would personally co for such a trivial matter. He had deliberately not allowed the receptionist to record the appointnt with the Construction Bank, intending to keep their audit personnel at bay, trying to buy ti day by day. However, with Ge Aimin’s presence, failing to make an appearance now would be a grave offense.
Several company directors followed behind Zhu Hongye, and upon seeing Ge Aimin from afar, he put on a broad smile and said, "Chairman Ge! For such a small matter to warrant your personal visit, I am deeply embarrassed."
Ge Aimin glanced at Zhu Hongye, with a smirk that didn’t quite reach his eyes, and said, "Chairman Zhu is so busy. If I hadn’t co personally, our audit personnel from the Construction Bank might not have had the chance to see you at all."
"Chairman Ge, what are you saying? How could I possibly deny entry to your bank staff? As for the appointnt, it seems my assistant forgot, despite my instructions yesterday, due to the busyness of these days."
Saying this, Zhu Hongye turned to scold his assistant, "Is this how you handle matters? This is your first ti; I’ll deduct your quarterly bonus. If it happens again, you’ll be out of a job!"
Uninterested in Zhu Hongye’s theatrics, Ge Aimin impatiently said, "Now that Chairman Zhu is here, please cooperate with our work. The sooner the audit is completed, the more convenient it is for you and the sooner we can consider this task done."
