Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 408: Chapter 408 Chen Jiuzheng is Here_1

First Meeting Room.

Song Changkong was escorted out by several individuals summoned by Chen Changqing, who also left the room himself.

The atmosphere in the entire meeting room was now harmonious.

”Congratulations on your appointment, Mr. Bai!” Wang Xincheng initiated the conversation with a smile toward Bai Xiaosheng, ”Just now, that Mr. Song was spouting all kinds of nonsense. Mr. Bai, you mustn’t take offense; he’s simply a madman!”

”How could I? I should be thanking Secretary Wang for your support,” Bai Xiaosheng replied with a smile.

This address of ’Secretary Wang’ pleased Wang Xincheng immensely.

”Not at all, not at all! As a veteran of Zhongjing Media, I should uphold justice. Just look at how convinced these people are by Mr. Bai,” Wang Xincheng gestured towards the audience and smiled, ”This shows how much Mr. Bai has won people’s hearts! I must clarify the false accusations made by Song Changkong with Affairs Officer Li when I get back! We can’t let Mr. Bai’s brilliance be overshadowed!”

”What about the investigation?” Bai Xiaosheng asked.

”It’s already been completed!” Wang Xincheng declared firmly, ”Leave the report and everything else to me, brother; you don’t have to worry about a thing!”

Wang Xincheng was now openly courting alliances.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled faintly and nodded.

His reaction to the change in Wang Xincheng’s attitude bore no hint of surprise.

Unperturbed by change, capable of responding appropriately!

Indeed extraordinary, obviously a man with powerful backing!

Wang Xincheng silently marveled.

However, he had no idea which almighty figure stood behind Bai Xiaosheng.

This curiosity wasn’t limited to Wang Xincheng alone.

At this moment, in the office of the Greater China Region’s Affairs Department, Affairs Officer Li was even more curious, collecting every snippet of information related to Bai Xiaosheng through the corporate system, leaving no stone unturned.

Regrettably, the yield was meager.

Or rather, there was no yield at all!

”This Bai Xiaosheng, it’s as if he popped out of a crack in the rock. Could he really be the reincarnation of Sun Wukong?” When alone, Officer Li murmured to himself.

Sun Wukong emerged from a stone, and he too had a significant backing.

This Bai Xiaosheng was no different!

The phone call to Wang Xincheng had been made by him, ordering Bai Xiaosheng’s on-the-spot promotion to General Manager of Zhongjing Media and the immediate ousting of the former General Manager as well.

But, the command didn’t originate from him!

No Affairs Officer, regardless of how powerful, could possibly reach such a level.

Even the General Manager of the Greater China Region couldn’t dismiss a subsidiary’s General Manager without any reason, yet, this time, inexplicably, there was none!

Affairs Officer Li had received a phone call from above.

A command from an even higher authority!

This was incredible. To think someone so paramount in the hierarchy would notice a small subsidiary under the Greater China Region.

It wasn’t just a distant connection; it seemed almost unreachable.

”This Bai Xiaosheng actually possesses such influence, lying low in a small subsidiary of our Greater China Region. It seems I must be extra vigilant and attentive!” Officer Li spoke to himself, ”When that gentleman returns to the country, I must report to him in detail.”

...

At this time, Wang Xincheng was determined to forge a deep connection with Bai Xiaosheng.

To this, Bai Xiaosheng was not averse.

Initially, due to Gao Dazhi’s flattery, Bai Xiaosheng nearly fired a key employee, but fortunately, he realized his mistake in time.

From that moment on, Bai Xiaosheng understood.

Humans are complex; one shouldn’t make rash judgments based solely on one aspect.

For instance, the current Secretary Wang, Wang Xincheng. Bai had only seen his cunning, selfish, and arrogant side, but since he could secure a secretarial position in the affairs department, he must possess some redeeming qualities.

Now that he was eagerly seeking to establish good relations, Bai Xiaosheng would not dismiss him outright.

The two were in the midst of a conversation.

The doors to the conference room suddenly parted to the left and right as they were pushed open entirely, noisily alerting Bai Xiaosheng and Wang Xincheng, who paused their conversation to look over.

Bai Xiaosheng was instantly stunned.

Eight or nine black-suited bodyguards entered in one breath, a spectacle that seemed indicative of a mob boss’s arrival.

And indeed, it was a big shot they both knew—

Chen Jiuzheng!

Why had he come? Bai Xiaosheng was bewildered.

Seeing Chen Changqing next to Chen Jiuzheng looking uneasy, it didn’t seem like a deliberately planned appearance...

Bai Xiaosheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although Zhongjing Media was in Zhongjing City, and Zhongjing City belonged to Anjiang Province, and all the industrial groups in Anjiang Province were under the control of this Chen Jiuzheng, the two entities could be said to be separate waters—completely unrelated!

Zhongjing Media was directly under the Greater China Region group, not under Chen Jiuzheng’s jurisdiction! He had no right to come to Zhongjing Media and boss people around!

Especially now, with Wang Xincheng from the Greater China Region Affairs Department present, didn’t Chen Jiuzheng know to avoid a conflict of interest?

Bai Xiaosheng was extremely curious.

Chen Jiuzheng was not a brainless fellow; on the contrary, he was an old, cunning guy with a shrewd mind.

As soon as Chen Jiuzheng and his party entered, all the managers and directors in the room were taken aback.

”Isn’t that Mr. Jiuzheng, the head of Anjiang Province’s regional industry? Why has he come?”

”Yeah, Zhongjing Media doesn’t fall under his management, and we usually have little to do with each other, right?”

”He comes on this day... there must be something up!”

...

The managers and directors murmured among themselves in hushed tones.

Chen Jiuzheng appeared unperturbed, his face wearing a smile, his gaze sweeping around.

Chen Changqing’s face was a bit panic-stricken.

He had not had the chance to tell his uncle that there had been a change in the wind!

Initially, when he found out that Wang Xincheng was coming, he took a brief moment to send a text message to his uncle.

He never expected that his uncle was nearby and would actually come over.

In the corridor, Chen Jiuzheng only had time to say one sentence to him, ”I’m here to meet an old friend, and by the way, show support for you all!”

Chen Changqing had no time to say more before Chen Jiuzheng confidently strode toward the venue.

This could mean trouble!

Chen Changqing’s expression was bitter, and he immediately looked towards Bai Xiaosheng.

From a distance, it wasn’t clear, but Bai Xiaosheng seemed expressionless.

Nevertheless, his lack of expression, showing neither joy nor anger, was just as terrifying!

Remember how he looked when he took down Song Changkong? Just like that!

He won’t have the same expression when he takes me down too, will he?

Thinking of the crazed Song Changkong, Chen Changqing now truly felt a little afraid of Bai Xiaosheng.

Unfortunately, with everyone watching, he had no way to stop his uncle!

Chen Jiuzheng’s gaze swept over the crowd and quickly lit up, ignoring the others as he spotted Wang Xincheng at once!

”Haha, Secretary Wang, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other!” Chen Jiuzheng laughed warmly as he approached, his face brimming with enthusiasm, ”Song Changkong and Changqing have thrown you a welcome party, and I’m here to join in on the fun. This is a private welcome, so don’t blame your old brother, huh!”

Upon seeing him, Wang Xincheng initially mustered a smile, but catching Bai Xiaosheng’s expression, Wang grew cautious.

Bai Xiaosheng was not surprised at all, clearly recognizing Chen Jiuzheng, but his expression was cool!

There was a problem between these two!

Wang immediately halted.

One wrong step and the future may not be so bright!
