Chapter 111 The Duan Family Consortium Crisis
Chapter 111 The Duan Family Consortium Crisis
It was nearly midnight.
An airplane flew through the clouds, its destination the other side of the ocean.
Song Beiyou and Jia Buxiu were on that plane.
However, from this moment on, Song Beiyou changed her name and identity, becoming Zong Beier, while Jia Buxiu became Gao Yaozu.
One is the daughter of Zong Zhengqi, and the other is the son of Minister Gao, who holds a similarly high position in the Safety Supervision Bureau.
The plane was a private jet, and the flight attendants were all speechless at how luxurious it was inside.
Fine wines and luxury crystals.
Soon, they landed in a major country across the ocean to prepare for their international student life.
......
For the past three days, Duan Jiajun has indeed been searching for Song Beiyou non-stop.
Various underground channels.
With today being the annual shareholders' meeting of the Duan Group, Duan Yao, who had publicly claimed to be seriously ill, once again sought out Yan Ge.
Yan Ge brought a glimmer of good news: "Third Master, we've found some information about Miss Song, but not much."
Duan Yao has been staying at Song Beiyou's house for the past few days, and is even thinking that he will stay here forever.
He was dressed in a suit and tie, a pure black suit jacket paired with a pure black shirt, and his hair was combed up, revealing an impeccable face.
Sitting on the sofa with his long legs crossed, he exudes an air of authority with his serious demeanor.
"Speak," he said, sparing with his words.
It seems he's been like this for the past three days.
Yan Ge nodded. "Five days ago, Miss Song seemed to have appeared at the Safety Supervision Bureau."
There's a tiny figure here, maybe one-eighth of the total.
The photo also shows Ms. Lou Yue's car.
Duan Yao didn't hear the name Lou Yue, and only said, "The Safety Supervision Bureau, Zong Zhengqi's place?"
Yan Ge said, "That's right. As for how Miss Song ended up there, it's not clear at the moment."
Duan Yao rested his hand on the sofa armrest, his slender fingers tapping it absently, his expression growing increasingly serious.
He wasn't surprised that Song Beiyou was at the Safety Supervision Bureau; her familiarity with Zong Zhengqi didn't seem odd to him either.
He was just wondering if Song Beiyou had been tricked into doing some kind of mission by that old fox Zongzheng Qi.
In the note Song Beiyou left for him before leaving Jinxiu Manor, he mentioned that he was going to "take care of some things".
So he was worried that she might be in a rather dangerous situation, and whether the matter she was dealing with was given to her by Zongzheng Qi.
If so, then the tasks assigned to the Safety Supervision Bureau are not something that ordinary people can handle.
Thinking of this, Duan Yao said, "Make arrangements to go see Zongzheng Qi."
Yan Ge nodded, "Yes, Third Master. I found out that Zongzheng Qi went to Y country to attend a meeting. He should arrive at the Safety Supervision Bureau in the afternoon."
Duan Yao grunted in agreement and got up from the sofa. "Then we'll deal with the Duan family's affairs in the morning and go to the Safety Supervision Bureau in the afternoon."
Strictly follow through, "Yes."
...
Today happens to be the winter solstice.
A north wind swept through, and heavy snow began to fall outside.
The dust settled thickly, turning the capital city white and chilling people's hearts.
A brand-new Rolls-Royce Phantom drove out of the garage at the Splendid Hillside and crashed into the snow.
The cart wheels rolled smoothly towards the Duan family's conglomerate.
Amidst the heavy snowfall, the Duan Group remained as towering and dazzling as ever.
At this moment, in the highest-level conference room of the conglomerate, senior shareholders sat around the conference table.
Yan Li stood upright at the very front of the conference table.
He cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, because Third Master is away on a business trip, I will be presiding over today's shareholders' meeting."
As soon as the words were spoken, a shareholder stood up and pointed at Yan Li, saying, "What qualifications do you, a mere assistant, have to preside over this shareholders' meeting?"
Get off!
Yan Li remained calm in the face of danger, saying, "What right do you, a mere shareholder, have to criticize me?"
I am your assistant, that's true, but I represent Master Duan. If you question me, it's the same as questioning Master Duan.
I think you're the one who should get lost!
Every word he uttered was imposing, forcing the shareholders who had stood up to sit back down in their chairs with a thud.
Pointing at Yan Li, he said, "You, you..."
He couldn't utter a single word for most of the day.
Sitting to the side was Duan Yuetian, whose eyes darted around as he nudged another shareholder next door with his foot.
The shareholder, who was usually quite bold, stood up and said, "Yan Li, I heard that Master Duan is unwell and has been bedridden for many days."
Right? If it were our Duan family conglomerate, we couldn't afford to be without a leader for even a day.
Otherwise, all those shareholders and employees would starve.
As soon as these words were spoken, many people suddenly stood up and said in unison, "Yes, that's right!"
The Duan family conglomerate cannot be without a leader for even a day.
These below are all collateral branches of the Duan family.
Over the years, they have all lived a comfortable life thanks to Duan Yao's fame.
Now that news has spread that Duan Yao is bedridden, everyone is getting restless.
"Heh." Yan Li couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
He wanted to see how long these people could keep their ambitions hidden.
As soon as the idea came out, Yan Li overestimated them. Someone actually slammed their fist on the table and stood up, "I recommend President Duan Yuetian to take over the position of Third Master. After all, he has been a loyal minister of the Duan family for many years."
His contribution to the Duan family's success today cannot be underestimated.
As soon as one person spoke, another immediately chimed in, "Yes, President Duan recently signed a new land cooperation project with the Bai family."
This project can only benefit the Duan family, and I recommend Mr. Duan to become the new head of our Duan Group.
One after another, more and more people are speaking out.
Bai Jingcheng had the surveillance cameras on the shareholders' meeting, and he smiled smugly throughout the entire meeting.
Looking at the faces of these people, Yan Li really wanted to go down and slap each of them.
Facing the noisy conference room, he patted the table and said, "Quiet!"
However, no one paid him any attention and continued to recommend Duan Yuetian.
A triumphant smile appeared on Duan Yuetian's face, as if he had already taken over the position of head of the Duan Group.
Unexpectedly, at the very moment when things were at their noisiest, the conference room door opened, and the radiant Duan Yao appeared before everyone.
The noisy meeting room fell silent instantly, and everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
stunned.
Thinking about what was going on, wasn't Duan Yao seriously ill? Some people even said his life was hanging by a thread.
Why?
Duan Yuetian, in particular, was simply incredulous, feeling a sense of defeat as if his mission had instantly failed.
Duan Yao scanned everyone's faces, gave a nonchalant "humph," and questioned, "Eight years ago, the Duan Group was almost bankrupt, and you all fled China for fear of being implicated."
Before leaving, they all issued statements saying they had no further connection with the Duan family.
I, Duan Yao, conquered this world on my own. When I rise again, you shamelessly return to the country. My mother, remembering that you once followed my father, will allow you to continue enjoying the Duan family's profits.
I can't believe that they're all so eager to change hands, unable to even distinguish the facts?
