What difference does it make if seventy percent of people support Murong Yunlong? The judges didn't follow the rules and directly announced Gu Yunxi as the financial chairman. Who could have expected this scene?
If they were going to announce it directly, why did they need us here? Is this a joke?
Even if they're going to play us, there's a limit.
The financial world runs too deep.
At this moment, besides He Nanfeng, Cui Jianghai, Zhang Tianao, and Qiu Mochen, the other presidents couldn't figure out what was happening, and in a muddled way, Gu Yunxi was elected as the financial chairman.
Even if they're tricking us, damn it, they can't do it like this!
"I disagree!" At this moment, a company president abruptly spoke up: "Financial conference judges should be fair and impartial, without personal bias. Yet, your bias is too obvious. I think we should revoke your rights as judges and re-elect!"
"Exactly!" Another company president spoke up: "Your blatant favoritism towards Gu Yunxi won't withstand financial public opinion, and we have the right to dismiss you as judges!"
What the hell, choosing Gu Yunxi as the financial chairman without a vote? That's too blatantly biased. Do you think we're blind?
"Dismiss, dismiss..."
In an instant, many people started to heckle and hurl jeers, clearly favoring Murong Yunlong's side.
"Choosing Gu Yunxi as financial chairman without a vote is too unfair, dismiss... we solemnly demand these judges be dismissed and re-elected!"
Voices continued to echo in the hall, seeing this scene, Murong Yunlong showed a trace of smugness.
He looked at the judges and said, "Now, are you satisfied?"
He continued, "Either you step down, or there should be a re-vote. If my votes are fewer than Gu Yunxi's, I'll naturally concede the chairman position to Gu Yunxi without complaint. But for you to publicly announce Gu Yunxi as financial chairman like this, is not convincing!"
"Is that so?" The presiding judge looked at Murong Yunlong and continued, "Do you think Xiao Tianyu's executive director, fully representing Tianyu International, still needs an election?"
What?
Xiao Tianyu's executive director, fully representing Tianyu International? These judges must be joking.
Who are you fooling? Fooling kids? We're not children anymore, alright, we're all over fifty.
Many people looked disdainfully at the presiding judge, clearly not believing it, but it's not surprising. Over the years, Tianyu International never participated in the financial conference, and naturally not this time either.
Moreover, could Gu Yunxi be connected to such a big name as Tianyu International? Don't be ridiculous. If Gu Yunxi were connected to Tianyu International, would the Gu Corporation have gone bankrupt?
At this point, Murong Yunlong sneered, "What a joke, I think you all must be senile. Everyone knows Tianyu International doesn't participate in the financial conference, yet here you are elevating Gu Yunxi?"
"Who says Tianyu International won't participate in the financial conference!" At this moment, Gu Yunxi stood up, looked at Murong Yunlong, and continued, "Did the president of Tianyu International tell you this personally?"
"Of course, they did!" Murong Yunlong shamelessly said, "I even have some acquaintance with Tianyu International's president. It was said by Tianyu International's president personally, so I'm sure they won't participate!"
What?
Murong Yunlong knows the president of Tianyu International?
Did I hear this right?
This is big news.
And so, Gu Yunxi was exposed as a joke?
Subsequently, someone in the crowd said, "President Murong, we choose to support you!"
"President Murong, I won't vote for anyone else, just you!"
"We all support you!"
"..."
Instantly, those in the hall who originally didn't want to support Murong Yunlong all stood on his side. What a joke, Murong Yunlong knows Tianyu International's president—how can they not support him?
Soon, ninety-six percent chose to support Murong Yunlong, and the remaining four percent were just people like Cui Jianghai.
What is happening?
Murong Yunlong knows Tianyu International's president? When did this happen, and why didn't we know? Also, Gu Yunxi is the executive director of Tianyu International and fully represents them. Even if that Murong Yunlong knows the president of Tianyu International, what good does it do?
Meanwhile, Xiao Tianyu also looked bewildered. This old man claims he knows me; how come I didn't know? He's quite good at using my name to win over others. Damn, you're half a foot in the grave, and your cheek is still this thick?
Murong Yunlong's smile deepened as he looked at the judges and said, "Now you know how strong the people backing me are, right? If you're smart, re-hold the election. Otherwise, you judges can pack up and leave!"
"What's there to even vote on!" someone from below shouted, "Now more than ninety percent choose President Murong, so the chairman position undoubtedly belongs to President Murong!"
"Exactly!"
"We solemnly state our full support for President Murong. President Murong is the only choice for this chairman election!"
"..."
Voices surged from below as almost everyone supported Murong Yunlong.
Murong Yunlong waved for everyone to quiet down, and soon the hall was silent. Murong Yunlong said, "Since everyone holds me, Murong Yunlong, in such high regard, then I, Murong Yunlong, will naturally take the position of chairman without hesitation. Rest assured, with me in charge, I'll earnestly strive for Fengzhou City's financial sector!"
"President Murong, mighty!"
"President Murong, you're on top!"
"..."
A burst of cheers came from below.
While Murong Bai looked confused, wondering when his dad knew the president of Tianyu International. How come he didn't know? Moreover, yesterday Tianyu International cut off several financial relationships with the Murong Group. Dad, I just want to ask, are you sure you know the president of Tianyu International?
Since when has Dad become so good at fooling people?
But Gu Yunxi's beautiful eyes held a slight smile. Just when Murong Yunlong was full of spring joy, Gu Yunxi said, "Are you sure you know Tianyu International's president!"
"Nonsense, I've even had meals with him!" Murong Yunlong said seriously, but Gu Yunxi giggled, leaving Murong Yunlong puzzled. He asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yunxi didn't respond. She just looked at Xiao Tianyu with her beautiful eyes and said, "Tianyu, do you know him?"
Tianyu, do you know him?
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Tianyu. Someone, puzzled, said, "What's the meaning of Gu Yunxi's words? I never went to school, so I don't understand!"
