"It's twelve o'clock, President Ge!"
The secretary, standing by the conference room door, glanced at the wall clock and reminded him softly.
Her voice was gentle and pleasant.
To Ge Jun at this moment, it sounded better than ever.
"Alright, since the time has come, let's begin!"
"Wait!"
Among the dissenters, Liu Fang, who had been leading the opposition, immediately stood up. "President Ge, Director Zhang and Director Liu haven't arrived yet. Is it appropriate for us to rush into the meeting? Or perhaps, President Ge, are you afraid of something!"
These words were like sharp, gleaming knives.
Yet, Ge Jun's expression remained calm, unchanged.
He glanced at Liu Fang, who was not far away.
Ge Jun slowly said, "In that case, let's postpone it for five minutes!"
Liu Fang looked surprised.
Wasn't this man eager to seize power by starting the meeting?
What was the reason for this?
Now that Ge Jun had spoken, Liu Fang had no reason to object and could only sit down obediently.
He wondered if the man had undergone a transformation.
However, at this moment, a sinister smile flickered across Ge Jun's mind.
He had not changed, nor had he altered his original intention.
Ge Jun's current move was merely a strategy of "playing hard to get."
In the upcoming meeting, he wanted to ensure that Liu Fang, who was desperate to find fault with him, would have no leverage.
This way, Liu Fang would have nothing to say.
How could he then lead the opposition to act recklessly?
If this group couldn't stir up any significant trouble, then dividing them would not be difficult!
Thinking of this, Ge Jun chuckled.
At the same time, he glanced down at his watch.
He felt even more delighted.
Then, he murmured, "Director Liu probably won't come! As for Director Zhang, even if he comes, he'll likely be here to beg for mercy!"
Before he could finish speaking.
*Clang!*
A dull thud came from near the door.
The secretary turned her head.
"Director Zhang, what happened?"
The secretary's beautiful almond-shaped eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Director Zhang before her.
His entire body was covered in dusty gray soil.
His expensive suit looked like a battlefield in ruins.
It was less like he walked into the conference hall and more like he had crawled in.
"What's wrong? Director Zhang?"
The secretary frowned at the sight and, with a look of disdain, prepared to help him up.
But before her hand could touch Zhang Yun.
He shivered violently all over.
He was clearly a startled bird.
"Brother Zhang Yun, please take a seat quickly. Where have you been? Did you perhaps fall into a mud pit!"
Ge Jun's words seemed to be comforting, but only he and Zhang Yun knew what had truly happened.
This man and Director Liu were the two tough nuts to crack.
If he didn't teach these two a lesson, was he still Ge Jun?
Currently, although Zhang Yun harbored deep hatred for Ge Jun sitting not far away, under the overwhelming fear that enveloped him, his anger could only be suppressed.
Just a moment ago.
He had been dragged into a secluded room by two men.
And in that room.
Zhang Yun had witnessed a scene he would probably never want to see again in his life.
Director Liu was being held against a rough earthen wall.
Not far away, a young man with dyed yellow hair was swinging a steel pipe.
*Crack!*
With each swing of the steel pipe.
A gush of blood splattered from Director Liu.
Zhang Yun couldn't bear it any longer.
Taking advantage of the men's lack of vigilance, he slipped away.
However, all of this was merely a stratagem by Ge Jun.
Zhang Yun's escape was not due to his cleverness.
It was intentional.
Otherwise, if both men disappeared, even if Ge Jun obtained their abstentions, it would not mean much to him.
If he wanted to completely dismantle the opposition, he had to deal with these tough nuts from the root.
Zhang Yun remained silent at Ge Jun's words.
"Director Zhang, did Director Liu happen to be with you? As far as I know, you two have been good friends for many years!"
Ge Jun smiled, his expression amiable.
His face was like the spring breeze in March.
But in Zhang Yun's eyes, this gentleness was more terrifying than Yama, the king of hell, who could easily claim a person's life.
The conference room was at a comfortable temperature.
But Zhang Yun couldn't help but shiver.
He slowly lowered his eyes.
At the same time, he said in a low voice, "President Ge, Old Liu said he was sick and couldn't come today."
"What?"
Liu Fang, upon hearing this, instantly sensed something amiss in the surrounding air.
"Director Zhang, did Director Liu say how he decided!"
His absence meant an abstention.
Liu Fang was naturally unwilling to see his side lose a member without cause.
Zhang Yun's voice was faint, "He already communicated with me and asked me to make the decision!"
These words were extremely against his will.
But he thought that if he didn't say this.
His fate might be even worse than Director Liu's.
He could only do this. Although he couldn't find any evidence, as an experienced hand who had been in the business world for so many years, how could Zhang Yun not sense who was behind this?
Yes, it was Ge Jun, this person sitting in his seat, with a benevolent expression, like a great Buddha.
Liu Fang's heart sank upon hearing this.
Before he could speak further.
The secretary stood at the front of everyone.
"Esteemed directors, from now on, we will proceed with a secret ballot. Those who vote in favor of President Ge being elected as the new chairman and chairman of our board can begin voting now. Next, we invite President Ge to present his future plans for Taisung Group!"
*Clap, clap!*
Thunderous applause erupted.
Ge Jun slowly raised his head with the sound of the applause.
"Everyone, quiet, quiet! Thank you all for your support!"
"Hypocrite!"
Liu Fang sat in his seat, staring at Ge Jun with a stern expression.
No matter what, today, he would not let this Ge Jun off easily.
Once this man took control of Taisung, he would leave here decisively.
That was a matter for later. Of course, Liu Fang had been here for so long.
He was not willing to leave easily.
Therefore, at this moment, Zhang Yun was his last hope.
Thinking of this.
"Wait!"
An aged voice suddenly interrupted Ge Jun.
Upon hearing this, the entire conference room.
Countless pairs of eyes turned to the source of the sound.
