Huang Hao and his group led the way, shouting, âMake way, make way, youâre blocking us!â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
As they cleared a path, their banners proudly displayed bold, optimistic slogans. The directors onstage watched, their expressions souring.
One muttered dismissively, âTheyâre probably just paid actors. This doesnât change a thing.â
Ye Shaochen, initially smug, watched the lively scene with a tightening jaw, his earlier mockery now seeming misplaced.
But the twist in the tale was just beginning.
As Ye Shaochenâs mood soured, his directors rose to comfort him, confidently dismissing Rong Qiâs supporters. âWithout us, Rong Holdings will crumble,â they assured.
As soon as they finished speaking, a mocking voice resounded, âTsk! Some people really think too highly of themselves, as if anyone cares. Just leave and save me the trouble of cleaning up the garbage later.â
Enter Shangguan Ze, striding confidently onto the stage in a suit Rong Qi had selected for him. The journalists, curious about this new player, crowded around as he introduced himself. âIâm Shangguan Ze, head of Sevenfold Venture Group. From today, Sevenfold merges with Rong Holdings, under Ms. Rongâs leadership.â
His voice was light, and he turned to look at the directors, âSo you see, youâre really not that important, okay? What talent canât we get at Sevenfold?â
The crowd was stunned. This was no small development. Sevenfold Venture Group was a heavyweight in the business world.
As the directors gaped, Shangguan Ze turned to Rong Qi, presenting her with a contract. The signing of the document confirmed the mergerâs reality.
The scene took another dramatic turn when Shangguan Ze welcomed several well-dressed individuals. The moment Ye Shaochen recognized them, his composed demeanor shattered.
These were his own top executives!
Rong Qi, having just inked the deal, looked at Ye Shaochen with a hint of challenge. âAs they say, what goes around comes around. Weâve welcomed a few key figures from Ye Group to Rong Holdings. A fair exchange, wouldnât you say, Mr. Ye?â
Ye Shaochen was visibly shaken. Losing these high-caliber professionals was a significant blow to his operations.
The defectors explained their choice to a stunned Ye Shaochen, citing Rong Holdingsâ potential and their familiesâ support. Ye Shaochen, struggling to maintain his composure, warned them of potential regrets.
As Ye Shaochen turned to leave, seething, another surprise awaited him. Approaching from the other direction was Sheng Jian, adding yet another layer of complexity to the unfolding drama at Rong Holdings..
