Chapter 400 - 400 Flower City, Bai!
South, Flower City.
A young man in a white suit also stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the thirty-sixth floor, gazing at the beautiful sunset outside, lost in thought.
Behind him, an assistant handed over a document, bowing and saying, "Mr. Bai, this is the information on Fengyun Group."
The man in white flipped through it casually.
The assistant continued, "Recently, Fengyun Group has been developing very rapidly. According to the current trend, it won't be long before they can become the leading power in Hanjiang Province."
The man in white seemed not very interested and asked, "How are those four women doing?"
"Following your instructions, they have been continuously training and have made significant progress. I must say your vision is excellent; they will dominate the entertainment industry for a while!" the assistant flattered.
The man in white waved his hand dismissively and said, "Go on! Speed up the process. They are currently sleeping only four hours a day, right? That's too much sleep. Add another hour of training each day. I want them to make a sensation nationwide as soon as they appear. How can they succeed without hard efforts?"
"But..."
The assistant was troubled.
Those four were already undergoing 'devil training' for twenty hours a day—vocal, physical, dance, etc.—for a long time now, and they were about to collapse. Now cutting down their sleep by another hour was just too hard.
But.
Seeing the fierce look in the man in white's eyes, he swallowed his words and said, "Alright, alright, I'll notify them right away..."
After the assistant left.
The man in white flipped through a few more pages of the Fengyun Group's file, muttering, "I really don't understand why you bother with these superficial things. Clearly, you only need to deal with Haohan to pass the inspection, yet you insisted on messing with all these messy industries. Are you short of money? Or have you already been corrupted by worldly greed? In this way, you cannot possibly become the new Heavenly King..."
Upon saying this.
He slightly curled up the corners of his mouth and said, "The new Heavenly King of Heavenly King Mountain, will definitely be me..."
...
Night fell.
Xu Yunxiao drove to pick up her mother-in-law Li Cuilan and Xu Guosheng, and then went to Wanfu Building to pick up Qin Feng to attend a family meeting.
"Daughter, it would just be us going to the family meeting, why bring him along?" Mother-in-law Li Cuilan curled her lips and said, "With him there, it will just become their joke again, surely he will be called a cuckold."
"Mom!!"
Xu Yunxiao was utterly frustrated.
Calling Qin Feng a cuckold was indirectly mocking her own infidelity.
"Daughter, mom didn't mean that. On the contrary, I feel like you have become open-minded, hehehe..." Her mother-in-law chuckled.
"..."
Xu Yunxiao was completely at a loss for words.
Her value system really caused frustration.
Shortly.
They arrived at the Xu Mansion.
In a huge conference room, sat about two hundred members of the Xu family, ranging from close to distant relatives; it seemed like a major meeting.
Moreover, everyone's expressions were very solemn.
It wasn't like when Xu Yunxiao just became the chairwoman, where everyone greeted her with enthusiasm.
Mother-in-law Li Cuilan, still unaware of what had happened, continued just like before, feeling proud as the mother of the chairwoman of Xu Group, and casually chatted with everyone around.
"Third Aunt, please be serious!" Content presented by *.
Xu Changjian's voice was stern at this moment.
Li Cuilan was not convinced, and pouted, "Jian'er, how can you talk to your aunt like that? After all, you work with Yunxiao, and on top of that, I am your elder. Your attitude is way too poor! The previous few times you made mistakes, if it wasn't for Yunxiao's magnanimity, you might have been kicked out of the Xu family already."
"You..."
Xu Changjian's face flushed with anger.
Grandma spoke at this moment, "Enough, everyone quiet, the meeting is about to start!"
"Hmph!"
Li Cuilan gave Xu Changjian a glaring look.
Xu Changjian sneered inwardly, "Hmph, let you be smug for now, your family will have a time to cry later!"
The meeting started.
Normally, Chairman Xu Yunxiao would have spoken first, but since this was an internal family meeting, grandma directly asked the finance director of Xu Group to report the group's financial statements for this period.
Besides the Shuimu Company currently managed by Xu Yunxiao, the Xu family had many small companies and industries, especially trading companies.
"Compared to last month, our group's performance has severely declined, including the companies that handle pharmaceuticals, clothing and other trades, which are almost all operating at a loss," said the finance director.
After that.
Everyone turned their gaze towards Xu Yunxiao.
Xu Yunxiao frowned and said, "Shuimu Company's development is doing very well right now, with two concerts that have established its reputation. In these two months, many artists have also approached Shuimu Company for event planning, and we have already begun to show some initial profit."
"What are you trying to imply with these words?" Grandma said coolly.
Xu Yunxiao was somewhat confused and said, "The report just mentioned the company is incurring losses, I just want to indicate that the situation isn't as bad."
"Yes!" Mother-in-law Li Cuilan spoke at this moment too, pouting as she looked at the finance director, "You only mention the losses and not the profits, isn't this just criticizing my daughter's work, saying she didn't do a good job! Who says she didn't?"
Grandma casually sipped her tea, then spoke again to Xu Yunxiao.
"Do you truly think you've done your job well? Yunxiao, you are the chairman of the Xu Group, the backbone of our Xu family. The lifeblood of the entire Xu family lies in your hands, and yet, you only focus on your Shuimu Company, neglecting everything else."
"Look besides Shuimu Company, all our other industries are experiencing losses!"
"Do you think you are competent as a chairman?"
After Grandma finished speaking, Xu Yunxiao's brows tightened.
She had a bad feeling coming here, and now it was indeed coming true.
At this point, Qin Feng chuckled, "This is really unreasonable, isn't it? When my wife became the chairman, it was agreed that her focus would be on Shuimu Company. As for the other industries, Grandma, you strongly pushed them to Xu Changjian to manage, telling her to concentrate on Shuimu Company's affairs without worry. Now that Xu Changjian hasn't achieved success and has caused financial losses, you turn around and blame my wife?"
Upon hearing this, Mother-in-law Li Cuilan also chimed in, "Exactly, even if there are losses, it is Jian'er's fault, not my daughter's!"
"No."
Xu Yunxiao said sternly, "It is related to me; I have been negligent…"
Actually, she felt helpless.
Previously, Xu Group was doing just fine, but suddenly major issues arose, coupled with rumors about her, she couldn't react in time. She had just started investigating when a family meeting was called.
"Good, since you know your mistake, then there must be corresponding measures," Grandma's eyes flickered with a barely noticeable smile, and then addressed everyone, "What do you all think should be done next?"
As she spoke, she glanced towards Xu Changjian.
"Quite simple."
Xu Changjian also lifted a corner of his mouth in a barely visible smirk, scanned around, and said, "I propose, a change in leadership!"
