Xu Bolin looked at him with disdain.
"When the Xu family is speaking, is it your turn to interject?"
Xu Jinbai certainly knew that, given Xu Bolin’s status, he couldn’t stoop to Cui Jizhong’s level.
So he also stood out and said,
"Although investnt inevitably carries risks, soone must take responsibility for such a significant investnt error, right?
rely saying there’s a problem won’t solve anything."
"That’s right! Mr. Xu, this matter probably requires an explanation to the board of directors!"
"Yes! The investnt departnt cannot shirk its bla!"
Several directors aligned with Xu Bolin also expressed their agreent one after another.
Xu Jingsong’s face turned iron blue.
"Bang!" "Enough!"
As everyone was discussing incessantly, Xu Bonian, who had been silent until now, tapped his cane.
The conference room imdiately quieted down.
"In view of the investnt decision errors that caused great losses to the group, Jingsong and Jizhong, both of you will lose all of your stock incentives for this year.
Additionally, replace the head of the investnt departnt. As for the specific candidate... it will be decided by the HR departnt!"
Xu Jinbai was the HR Director, and this was akin to throwing the "investnt departnt" bait out to calm the situation.
A hint of joy flashed across Xu Bolin and his son’s faces.
Xu Jingsong’s complexion changed, and he wanted to say sothing, but was silenced by a glare from Xu Bonian.
"What is everyone else’s opinion?" Xu Bonian swept his gaze over all present, finally resting it on Xu Bolin.
Xu Bolin never intended to soar to the skies in one step.
Today, he had rely planned to dampen the enthusiasm of Xu Bonian and his son, and incidentally strike at Xu Jingsong’s prestige.
Seeing that Xu Bonian showed signs of conceding by sacrificing the pawn to save the castle,
he also nodded, taking advantage of the situation to graciously agree.
"The chairman’s rewards and punishnts are clear, I naturally have no objections."
"Right, right! We have no objections either!"
Seeing that both the largest and the second-largest shareholders had already settled their interests, the remaining directors naturally followed the flow and agreed.
After a board eting with a delicate atmosphere concluded,
as soon as Xu Jingsong returned to his office, he couldn’t help but complain,
"Dad! Why did you hand over the investnt departnt to them?
That’s a crucial departnt with significant influence within the group!"
Xu Bonian took a sip of tea and looked at him indifferently.
"If you hadn’t given others a handle on you, would we need to placate them like this?"
"Uh..." Xu Jingsong suddenly felt embarrassed.
"If you make a mistake, you own up to it. If you get hit, you stand up straight!
Yes, I could have forcefully suppressed this matter, but the harder you press a spring, the stronger it bounces back.
Rather than wait for two issues to settle down and cause greater dissatisfaction among the board, we might as well take the initiative to punish ourselves and divert so of the pressure.
One mustn’t be shortsighted in life!"
"Yes, I understand," Xu Jingsong acknowledged his error with his head lowered.
"However... based on Elder San’s behavior today, perhaps this matter really can’t be disconnected from him..."
Xu Bonian narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I’ve always said, if not for that old man, there wouldn’t be anyone else!" Xu Jingsong said resentfully.
"Hmph! Xu Jinbai? He doesn’t even see what he is, yet he wants to support such a person to a position of power.
If they didn’t hold the group’s shares, that fellow wouldn’t even be allowed through the door of the HR departnt!"
"Enough, let’s not talk about Elder San’s family for now. Let him be pleased with himself for a while.
The key is the two troubleso matters in your hands; you need to find a way to minimize the losses as soon as possible!
If not handled well, the impact of these two issues could indeed threaten your position. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I got it!"
After Xu Bonian left, Xu Jingsong remained silent in his office for a long ti.
Getting duped out of his money was one thing.
But the grudge of being beaten up by Gao Yuan, he still...
It’s endurable, but your uncle truly cannot tolerate it!
His eyes revealed a vicious expression.
"Xu Bolin, Xu Jinbai!
I’ve noted this debt!"
...
On the other side,
Xu Bolin and his son, entirely unaware of the extent to which they had antagonized Xu Jingsong, were still celebrating their "great victory" of the day.
"Hahaha! Dad, you should have seen Xu Jingsong’s face just now, it looked as if he was constipated."
"Hehe!"
Xu Bolin also felt extrely pleased.
Constantly overshadowed by Xu Bonian, it was rare for him to have a mont to breathe freely.
Not only did he strike at Xu Jingsong’s prestige, but he also seized control of a key departnt from Xu Bonian and his son, greatly strengthening his own faction’s influence within the group!
And all he had done was spread so rumors.
The input and output ratio was simply a huge profit, wasn’t it!
As for whether this would offend Xu Bonian and Xu Jingsong...
"If only I had been as decisive back then as I am today, wouldn’t I have had to watch helplessly as that bastard Xu Bonian took away the company’s control?"
Xu Bolin reflected on his pain.
He attributed his greatest weakness at the ti to being too concerned about brotherly affection, too "indecisive"!
"Isn’t it just about being ruthless to one’s kin?
Who can’t do that?!"
...
Yangcheng City.
"Knock knock!"
"Co in!"
Mr. Yu, holding a docunt, walked into the office and saw Mr. Ren wearing reading glasses, engrossed in a book.
A thick "English-Chinese Dictionary" was spread out on the desk.
"Mr. Ren, this is the future purchasing plan after my revision, please take a look."
"Hmm! Just leave it there," Mr. Ren said without lifting his head, seemingly completely imrsed in the book.
Curious, Mr. Yu glanced at the cover and was montarily shocked.
The Arican Trap?
"Mr. Ren, there really is such a book?" he exclaid in surprise.
"Hmm! I had soone bring it back from Europa. I heard it was just recently published there too."
"I didn’t expect it... what that guy said was actually true..."
He clicked his tongue in wonder, finding it sowhat unbelievable.
Why could that seemingly ordinary young man even get a preview of the manuscript of such a book?
How much must he love reading?
"Mr. Ren, should I find a translator for you?"
Seeing Mr. Ren occasionally consulting the dictionary and struggling a bit, he couldn’t help but speak up.
"No need, reading the original won’t distort the aning, and I’ve already read more than half of it. I plan to finish it tonight," Mr. Ren replied without raising his head.
"This book..." he hesitated, wanting to say more.
Mr. Ren seed to know what he wanted to say. He put down the book and couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.
"This book... it gives chills!"
"You an..."
Mr. Ren picked up a docunt from the desk and flicked it.
"On January 9, 2018, because of Black Palace’s intervention, we lost the cell phone order from ATT.
On February 13, an FBI director publicly warned against buying Hua Wei mobile phones.
On March 22, our mobile terminals lost support from retailer Buy Cent.
And just recently, the Departnt of Defense across the ocean banned the sale of Hua Wei and Xingzhong mobile phones on military bases..."
Mr. Yu’s forehead began to show sweat.
Every ti Mr. Ren read a piece of news, Mr. Yu’s heart trembled.
In the past, such news was enough to warrant attention, but he had never realized that stringing these events together could make one’s back chill this much...
Yes, from various signs, they should have understood long ago.
Xingzhong’s fate was surely going to be Hua Wei’s fate, too.
It’s just that compared to Xingzhong, their bone was harder to gnaw, their weaknesses fewer...
However, the calr it is before a storm, the bigger the waves it brings!
The other side might be brewing a shocking conspiracy against Hua Wei!
It was such a realization in hindsight! Indeed, too little too late!
"Sigh!" Mr. Ren let out a sigh as he put down the materials in his hands.
"Elder Yu, after reading this book, I suddenly realized.
Their goal might not be to correct us, but rather... to destroy us!"
"Really... is it that serious?" Mr. Yu was sowhat speechless.
"We must always anticipate the worst. I now faintly feel that the person you t in Su City, what he said might actually co true...
That young man... is no ordinary individual!"
"Then... shall I make contact to find out more about him?"
After thinking for a while, Mr. Ren nodded.
"Yes! It’s fine to befriend him, but don’t go out of your way to inquire about his identity.
If he wants to reveal it, he will naturally do so. If he doesn’t, then he surely has his concerns."
"Concerns? What concerns?"
"Such strategic vision requires a massive amount of information support!
Even the title of this book isn’t sothing an ordinary person can just spout out.
Who in Country Hua would go to the trouble of collecting so much information and then kindly warn us?"
"To put it that way, soone with the capability and motive to help us this way..."
The next mont, Big Mouth Yu’s mouth gradually fell open.
"You... you an..."
He quickly shut his mouth, then pointed upwards with a look full of unspeakable secrecy.
"The top?"
