She Handed Out Chocolate—But Was Mistaken for a Clerk... Until She Flashed the Highest-Level ID!

Hey, hey, what's wrong? Are you okay? Are you okay now? Where'd this janitor come from? How dare she throw herself at my son, this overseas returnee trainee. Mom, stop this. Stop this. I'm getting your HR director right now. Fire this shameless shrew. You've got it wrong. I'm not an employee here. Play dumb, go ahead. Not an employee, you dared enter this building. Let go of me. Think I can't handle you? Go to finance and settle your accounts. Get out now. Leave your ID number. You'll be blacklisted. I dare leave my ID number, but I doubt you even have the clearance to check it. What is this? A toy bought from a street vendor? Trying to scare me? Young lady, you're bringing your scams right to our Shenhua group? Some nerve. Director Wang, why waste time talking to her? I've seen plenty of women like her. They just want to use their pretty face, climb the ladder. Never mind what standing my son has. Mom, Director Wang, it's not like that. This lady, she just... Shut your mouth, you useless thing. A cleaning lady waves her finger, and you've lost your soul. I spent millions sending you abroad to study, so you'd come back and get tangled with this trash. Lin Hao, your mother is right. You're a key talent in our management trainee program. Can't be ruined by someone of questionable character, can't be ruined by her. I'm giving you two options. One, kneel right now and apologize to Zhao, beg for her forgiveness, and then get out. Two, I call the police right now, report you for business fraud and harassing employees, so you can reflect properly in jail. You sure you want to call the police? Scaring me? I, Wang Kun, have been in HR for over 20 years. What kind of person haven't I seen? Someone like you? Doesn't deserve to make terms with me. I'll show you right now. The doors of Shenghua Group aren't open to just anyone who wants to walk in. Call the police. We must. Let them check her out. Maybe she's a commercial spy. Mum, stop making a scene. She really just gave me a piece of chocolate. I was hypoglycemic and nearly fainted. What kind of decent chocolate could a janitor possibly have? Surely it's not that it has something unclean added inside. Son, still count money after being sold out. So this kind of thing exists. It seems the problem is more serious than I imagined. Who exactly sent you? If you don't make this clear, don't think about walking out that door today. How dare you? Daring to raise a hand? He's hitting people. How dare you push Supervisor Wang? Lawless. Completely lawless. Lin Hao, you stand right there. If you dare to help her, don't ever call me mom again. Fine. Very good. It seems without showing you some colours you don't know, just how much hell you're in for. Security, get up here now. HR office, troublemaker here. Attack the senior supervisor. Bring more people. You hear that? You'll get what's coming to you when security arrives. Supervisor, I'll ask you one final time. You sure you want to do this? Damn, you better believe it. Not only will I fire you today, I'll make sure you can't survive in this entire industry. I keep my word. Oh? Too bad you might not get that chance. Wang, detain the troublemakers. It's her. Get her. Tie her tight. Wait for police to escort her in. Stop. Don't you dare touch her. She's got nothing to do with this. It's all my mum's fault. Slap. You ungrateful wretch. I raised you for nothing. For a seductress? You dare raise a hand against your own mother? Mum, can you be reasonable? She helped me. How could you treat her like this? Me? Reasonable? My son's being seduced by some janitor, and I'm supposed to be reasonable? Lin Hao, out of my way. Or I'll hit you too. Ignore him. Wet behind the ears, brat. Get this woman under control first. Let go of her. Let go. Young lady? Having regrets now? Too bad it's too late. Supreme employee badge now? I'll show you right now how useless this thing is. What nonsense. Dream on trying to trick my son. In your next life. This card is the only one of its kind in the corporation. With it, every door opens. Don't lose it. You'll regret this. It'll be regret. I don't even have those words in my dictionary. Search her. Suspect she has. Classified company docs. Look what this is. A recorder. She's a corporate spy. Director Wang, listen to the recording. Go to finance to settle your account. Get out immediately. Leave your ID. Blacklisted in the industry. I'll call HR now to fire this shameless person. You. You dared to record? Now let's talk about who should be sent to the police station. Wang Kun. Li Jia, you're just in time. We caught a business spy. She... Business spy. Wang Kun. **** you. You're ******* blind. Chairman? I'm sorry. I'm late. Li Jia. What did you just call her? Chairwoman? Chairwoman? Do you need medical attention for your face? Li Jia. Who do you think actually runs Shenghua Group's branch? Pick it up. You can't use your hand. My dirty hands shouldn't touch the chairman's ID card. Didn't you want to call the police? Let me help you with that right now. Please, no, chairman. I beg you, chairman. Can't air dirty laundry in public. Just one chance I'll handle it. I swear. A family scandal. Director Wang wants to use Shenghua's name to put me on the industry blacklist. Miss Jiao says she'll cripple me with her own hands. Director Li, you call this a family scandal? Chairman, I was wrong. I was gravely wrong. I failed to recognize Mount Tai. I am undeserving. I deserve punishment. I deserve punishment. Li Pen, I'm giving you one hour to deal with your insubordinate. One hour. I want to see termination reports for everyone involved, compensation agreements, and incident statement on my desk. If you can't manage this, the board will send someone to do it for you. Not just about termination reports, not that simple anymore. Every document you signed in this office, every bribe you took, will be dug up. It's the chairman. Guarantee it's done. Within an hour, termination reports, compensation agreements, and incident statements on your desk. If anything's missing, hold me accountable. Why are you still standing there? Drag him out. Get him out of this building immediately. Starting today, this person banned from Shenghua Group. Chairman Li, help me. I've bled for this company. I've made sacrifices. 20 years at Shenghua. If no merit, at least hard work. You can't do this to me. Get out. That blood was dirty. 20 years of merit? 20 years of ******* embezzling? How dare you talk about merit? Miss Zhao, this is Shenghua Group. We don't welcome you here. Please leave immediately. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to report you for disrupting business operations to the police. Lin Hao, look at yourself. Just look what kind of people you've hired. Our family will be ruined because of you. I'm sorry. You haven't wronged me. But now she'll soon find out. Who's really doing this to her? Zhang from Legal. Come to my office with your team immediately. Right now. Manager Lu from Finance. You too. Bring all this year's documentation. And Li He. Yes, Chairman. I came incognito today. Originally, I just wanted to check how the reception service was doing at this branch. But it looks like now I have more to look into. Chairman Wang Kun. Wang Kun's issues are far worse than we imagined. He's worked at Shenghua Branch for 20 years, using his position, he secured jobs for over 30 relatives. Seven were absent for long periods, yet still got paid, became ghost employees. He also secretly established what he called an Onboarding Training Fund. All new hires were required to pay into this fund a training fee ranging from 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. Or they would not pass their probation period. This money was all pocketed personally by him. Lin Hao. Per investigation documents, Lin Hao is onboarding compliant. His management trainee position file shows approved by HQ. Approved by HQ, file updated. Proper program, updated file. However... What however? We found that Ms. Zhao Lihua, his mother, around Lin Hao's onboarding, had made three deposits into Wang Kun's account. Total 200,000 yuan. It was nominally a gratitude payment. So, it turns out that so-called returned overseas trainee was also bought with money. Has Ms. Zhao Lihua's family background been investigated? Check seven. Her husband, Lin Jianguo, is the boss of Hongfa Construction, a long-term building material supplier in South City area. Grandfather, the news has reached you already? Investigation files. That little bastard, Li Wei, called me crying at 3am yesterday. Haha, well done. Well done. When did others earn the right to scold us? But losing your cool won't do, girl. You need to do a proper investigation working through this clue. Why is a supplier so arrogant? Who's backing him? Is Xinhua's foundation worm infested? I understand, grandfather. Chairman, something terrible happened! Lin Hao's father, Lin Jianguo, brought people. He charged down to the company building. He blocked the main entrance. Go! Have your so-called bullshit, chairman! Get out here for me! How dare you mess with my wife and children! I think he doesn't want to do business anymore. Li Wei, you bastard! You've got some nerve now! Colluding with an outsider! You kicked my wife out and got Wang Kun fired. Listen, for cement and sand this quarter, your Xinhua won't get a single grain. Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, calm down. Misunderstanding. Bullshit! Who are you? Li Wei's newly hired secretary. Not bad looking. Too bad you picked the wrong boss. Your judgment's lousy. Mr. Lin, are you using the suspension of supplies to threaten the Xinhua Group? Threaten? Young lady? This isn't a threat. Notice. I'll have you know, without my materials, all South City projects will shut down. How much money you'd lose daily. Can you even calculate that? Get your new chairman to show himself and talk to me. You're not qualified. Okay. I'm the unqualified person. But I'm the one who calls the shots. Pen Li? Tell Legal Affairs to draft a cease and desist. Now terminate all agreements with Hongfa Construction and any company under Lin Jianguo effective immediately. Tell PR to prep a press release. Notify all partners and media about this situation. Also sue for commercial coercion, disrupting business operations and intentional harm. Get this filed in court now. Finally, set up audit task force immediately. Scrutinize every contract, every financial dealing between Xinhua Group and Hongfa Construction over the last decade. I want to know whether every cent we paid was clean or not. You? Who are you? I'm the one who's going to ruin you. Flash with Lin Jianguo became a long tug of war, deep roots in South City and public humiliation. After ending cooperation, he used connections to counterattack. Legal subpoenas hadn't arrived. Threats from all directions piled in. Branch accounts were chaotic. Personnel issues intertwined. Realized relying solely on leeway couldn't break the deadlock. I needed a reliable ally. Chairman, you've endured hardships. Jing? In private, just call me by name. Yay. Welcome to the battlefield. Chen Jing's arrival acted like a fresh breeze, quickly sorting out the chaos in the office. She brought in the elite from the audit department and established an independent and secure working system. She became my right hand. We rushed into the Southern District branch among decade-old papers. Secrets of corruption peeled back layer by layer, wreaking and revolting. Centered on Lin Jianguo's Hongfa construction, a huge benefits transfer network surfaced. Something interesting turned up after Wang Kun was fired. His overseas account suddenly received an anonymous payment of half a million. We traced the funds, which were transferred from an offshore shell company. The real controller of that company was Zhao Liwa's brother. Closed fee. This handling fee should be reimbursed. Probably more. We discovered because... Lin Jianguo's Hongfa construction has its largest debt, which originated three years ago via credit loan from our Shenghua Group subsidiary, Shenghua Zhenfu. The loan amounted to 50 million. With collateral being... Industry a lot. Southern suburbs. However, reviewing latest docs from Land Resources Bureau, just six months ago, the city government launched a new urban plan, now designated as a permanent ecological water reserve, banning all commercial development. The 50 million loan now depends on worthless collateral. This isn't just bad debt anymore. It's outright loan fraud. Where's the loan officer? Where's the risk supervisor who approved it? Credit manager quit a month ago, personal reasons. Now unreachable. Exit records show he went to Australia. Risk manager Wang Kun. But on the final loan approval document, the signatory wasn't Wang Kun. It was Li Wei. Bring Li Wei here. Chairman, what did you want to talk about? Chairman, I don't truly know. Then I trusted Wang Kun's report. He said it was a priority support project for the credit debt, procedures complete, urged me to sign and release funds fast. So I... Trust? 50 million yuan loan involving group asset security? You relied on your subordinate's verbal report, didn't do due diligence, dared to sign blindfolded. I got deceived. Chairman, I was wrong. I was wrong. What do you need me to do, chairman? Release two pieces of info. Black department doubts new chairman. We're reinstating Hong Fa Construction. Also, new chairman is young. He'll rely on Li Wei. Go ahead. Fish bite when they smell blood. Hello? Shen Peng? This is Lin Jianguo. I want to host a dinner to apologize. Apologize in person. I hope you and Mr. Li Dai can give us the honor. Send time and location. Chairman, if I may say. You're incredibly talented and beautiful. This backward old woman didn't recognize your eminence. I was rude. I deserve a thrashing. Chairman, please accept this compensation for my rudeness. Shall we take our seats? We can discuss over dinner. Chairman, our operations are modest. Our success, thanks to Shenhua Group, a great man like you has greater magnanimity than a warship in the chancellor's belly. Give my husband and me a chance to redeem. One word from you, thousands at Hong Fa Construction will lose their jobs. Show leniency and resume cooperation. I, Lin Jianguo, offer 10% of Hong Fa Construction's stakes to you personally, free. Lin Dai's sincerity is noted. Shares aren't necessary. I'm just rather curious. Your company's 50 million loan from Shenhua Financial, how will you repay it? From what I know, the land you mortgaged is practically worthless now. Did you all assume? If Li He signed the documents, when trouble arose, he could conveniently become the scapegoat. This is loan approval signed by Li Wei. Take another look at this. This copy, Lin Jianguo, the property deed for the Shintao Beachfront Villa you gifted to Li Wei's wife, the transfer date, was the day after the loan disbursement. How? How could you have this? Because that villa meant to bribe Li Wei was originally just my grandpa's fishing bait. Who did you think Wang Kun works for? Who do you think Li Wei is? How did he get his position today? Ever since Wang Kun was transferred to the South City Branch 10 years ago, he has been a pawn planted here by my grandfather. His task isn't to manage personnel well, it's to identify all parasites like you who try to use money and connections to corrupt Shenhua. Li Wei is the same. My grandfather promoted him because he's greedy enough and stupid enough. He made all the schemers feel safe to gather around him, even handing over their own evidence bit by bit. That's impossible. You're lying. Impossible? Your prize, son. Lin Hao, that so-called returnee management trainee, has a resume that's nearly perfect. Didn't you find that suspicious? When he graduated, the world's top 10 investment banks all offered him positions, yet he chose to return to a Shenhua branch office. Didn't you find that strange? Lin Hao, come in. Don't keep your parents waiting. He's so right, mom and dad. I never got any investment bank offers. Those emails, those acceptance letters were all fake. They were forged for me specifically by the chairman's people. My grandfather had you in his sights long ago. Open, Lin Jianguo. Ten years ago, because of the substandard cement you provided, a residential project in our Nanchang district, hundreds of families, thousands of lives were nearly destroyed all at once because of your greed. After that incident, grandfather didn't touch you because he knew that simply cutting down one like you would lead to countless others popping up. What he aimed for was to tear the entire network behind you out by the roots. So he designed a 10-year-long trap. He had Wang Kun and Li Wei lay out bait and watched how you used money and bribes to gradually trap yourself firmly on the Shenhua ship. He calculated your desire for your son's success and your vanity. He made your son the most crucial piece in this game. All your pride, all your futures are pinned on Lin Hao. Then, letting me personally tear them apart, my visit to the branch office today wasn't casual inspection. It was to wrap up the plan. That cup of coffee you threw in my face. Not too much, not too little, neither too early nor too late. Just happened to press the final enter key to activate this program. The game is over. Mr. Lin Jianguo, you're suspected of commercial fraud, malicious loan fraud, supplying substandard construction materials, endangering public safety, bribery. So, Mr. Lin, you are formally arrested. Come with us. Lin Jianguo is suspected of major economic crimes. All assets in your name, real estate, vehicles, bank deposits have been frozen. Assets to repay asset freezing order documents to repay Hong Fa's illegal gains. Asset freezing order docs, Hong Fa's illegal gains and bank loans. Simply put, from now on, you'll bankrupt. Fate of Wang Kun and Li Wei ruled as local tyrants for 10 years but didn't know from the start they were just pawns in bait. What awaits them? Severest judgment under the law. Grandfather spent 10 years gathering evidence. His family, his pride, his life, within a single hour, collapsed instantly. Why? Why? Why did you choose me? Because deep down, you're not bad, but also because you're timid enough. At the company reception, you had low blood sugar. I gave you chocolate. You were grateful, showing you appreciate kindness. Huh. But when your mother and Wang Kun humiliated me, you could only offer feeble defenses and were powerless to do anything. That proves you're cowardice. My grandpapa, once you knew the whole truth, the goodness in your bones would overcome the timidity in your nature. So what should I do now? Your returnee status is fake, but the knowledge you gained is real. Shenghua Group doesn't need someone with parental connections and money to support themselves, but society needs young people to set pride aside and create value with their hands. Compensation per labor law for terminating your management trainee contract. Lawful. Every penny accounted for. Tomorrow, you are who you aspire to be. Nothing to do with Shenghua. Your parents won't be involved. This path, walk it alone. Chairman, it's all over. Yes, all over. Let's go home now. Chairman, about your actions in Nanchang. This came from Xu Yaoding, our deputy group president. He's an elder who fought alongside my grandfather to build this empire. His influence runs deep within Shenghua Group. Were you too hasty? Li Wei and Wang Kun were wrong. Lin Jianguo's death was no loss. Wait. Overnight, you purged all executives of the Nanchang branch. Then you unilaterally severed all core construction supply chain. Do you realize three major Nanchang property projects worth billions each now halted awaiting materials? Oh my god, daily losses are astronomical. Exactly, chairman. Actions have consequences. Casualties always follow victory. This isn't behavior befitting a seasoned entrepreneur. Media laughing at Shenghua Group. They say internal power struggles. Descending into chaos. I silently watched their double act. Fingers lightly drumming the polished mahogany desk. Those familiar with me know this signals I'm running out of patience. Xu, are you suggesting that I should be bowing to those parasites draining the company's blood? I didn't mean that. Anti-corruption is necessary, but it requires strategy and tolerance. The broken supply chain in South City is fact. Urgent priority is to find new suppliers immediately to fill the gap left by Hongfa Construction. Thankfully, my reputation still holds some weight. I've contacted Ding Cheng Group from North River. They'll step in to take over all building supplies for South City, solving our crisis. Chairman, Hua, Ding Cheng Group eyeing our market. Their intervention at this time is definitely not out of goodwill. Ding Cheng Group Vice President Xu is indeed quite long-sighted, even arranging an escape route. It's all for the group. Mr. Shen from Ding Cheng has been waiting in the reception room for quite some time. Chairwoman, would you like to see him now? Honored to meet you. So the new chairwoman of Shenghua Group, even more beautiful than the rumors. No wonder you've made such a splash in Nan Cheng. It's youthful exuberance that's understandable. But business isn't child's play. Where pretty faces put food on the table. You're not here today. Just a comment on my looks now. VP Xu said you were here to put out fires. It's not like saving you from a fire, but mutually beneficial. Shenghua's mess in South City now, besides us at Ding Cheng. No one else can handle this. This is the contract. All material prices will be raised by 30% from market rates. Not only that, for three stalled projects in South City, Ding Cheng demands equity shares. No less than 40%. Gao Shen, this isn't what we agreed on. Uncle Xu, that was yesterday's deal. Shenghua's stocks dropped 300 million today. So my risk increased. So I want more compensation. Chairman, I know you're at your wit's end. Without my approval, those South City projects will completely stall tomorrow. Sign it. Call it a lesson bought with money. A 30% increase. Plus you want 40% of the shares. Shen Carton, your appetite is bigger than I thought. Fortune favors the bold, but crushes the timid. Chairman, you have no choice. Oh, who told you? I'm at a dead end? What do you mean? Want the Southern District project to die? You're being foolish. Still grandstanding as the chairman? If the project stalls, the board will remove you from office. Chen Jing, show it to them. Shen Tuo, VP Xu, see clearly. This is the cooperation agreement our chairman signed yesterday morning right before we returned to the TE department with Huajian Heavy Industries and the Southwest Construction Materials Bureau. Huajian Heavy Industries? Is the largest state-owned construction materials supplier in the country. Its capabilities far surpass Ding Cheng Group by a long shot. Shen Tuo, surely you didn't think before pulling out Lin Jianguo this rotten tooth. I wouldn't prepare for the bleeding, did you? Huajian Heavy Industries' initial supplies have already arrived this morning at major construction sites in South District. No delay in construction schedule, but procurement cost 15% lower than Ding Cheng's market price. Impossible. Huajian Heavy Industries, they never take rush jobs. How could you possibly get it done by them overnight? You can't pull it off. Doesn't mean I won't get it done. You think Grandpa only focused his schemes on South City these 10 years? The current head of Huajian was personally mentored by my grandfather. Shenghua, under reform. They won't just assist. They'll go all out. Hey! Deputy Su, the show's over. Now it's time to settle our accounts. Planting cronies in the Southern Branch and laundering money via Lin Jianguo? You really think you could get away with that? Lin Jianguo, locked up trying to earn leniency. Reported cleanly. Every transaction between you and all email records. Security. Escort Xu Yaoding out. Transfer him to the Economic Crime Investigation Bureau. Chairman, please spare me. Shen He, you can skedaddle on your own, or I'll have someone help you roll out. Everyone, enough of the show. Shall we get down to business now? Chairman, wise decision. Scum like Xu Yaoding should have been ousted ages ago. Absolutely. We firmly stand behind the chairman's decision. Since everyone supports me, then this new group, Executives' Performance and Integrity Assessment Reform Plan, assume no objections. The document says, Abolish all Historical Dividend Perks Strict Rank, Based Elimination for Executives, and Unconditional Compliance with Random Audits. This is a complete dismantling of your kingdoms. My grandfather built Shenghua, not as a retirement haven for parasites who suck blood while resting on their past merits. Sign this agreement, and you'll remain honored contributors to Shenghua. For those unwilling to sign, Xu Yaoding's office is still vacant. Join him there. Five minutes later, on all reform proposals, were filled with the trembling names of these old foxes. From then on, the supreme power of Shenghua Group was completely and absolutely in my hands. Three months later, after a thorough reshuffle, Shenghua Group not only didn't collapse like the naysayers predicted, but by eliminating the remnants and corruption, its profit statement rose against the trend by 20%. Well done. This project is Nancheng's largest, the key area for the Future City Core Technology Zone public bidding. We got to win it. Our biggest competitor remains Shenzhi's Ding Cheng Group. Chairman Shenzhi has been making frequent moves lately. He poached two deputy directors from Planning Dept with high salaries. He's secretly contacting key bidding committee judges. Not only that, but rumors have started swirling that Shenghua is facing a cash flow crisis. Some media outlets even dredged up the major staff turnover at our South City branch three months ago, claiming internal turmoil makes us incapable of handling such a large project. His tactics remain as underhanded as ever. That Shenzhi really hasn't gotten any smarter. Having suffered a loss at my hands before, he's going all out on Future City project, desperate to redeem himself. Should we also approach the review committee, send cease and desist letters those rumor-mongering media? No need. Two deputy directors he poached. Only took our discarded first-edition proposal. Ah. As for those baseless claims, those whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad. The higher he climbs, the harder he'll fall on bidding day, shattering into pieces. Go prepare for tomorrow night's industry charity dinner. We'll get to know Mr. Zishen better. Isn't this our Shenghua Group's Iron Lady CEO? Ow. Come. You have time to attend the banquet tonight. Instead of handling the capital chain rupture crisis at the company? Shen really is concerned about Shenghua's financial situation. But since you have that kind of energy, you should focus more on Ding Cheng's own stock price. Stop talking big. Business is capability and connections. Your people, your plans in my hands now. Future City project? I'm taking it. Let's see. Just how long you'll last in that position. Do you even realize what your fatal flaw is? You're too obsessed with stolen goods. What are you implying? F-Wednesday is the bidding meeting. We'll be watching to see if you can pull off a convincing pitch. With the drafts we threw in the trash. Judges. Ding Cheng's proposal. The core concept revolves around Cloud City. Uses clusters of super high-rise buildings, plus an underground 3D transport network. Maximizes space efficiency. He memorized every word. The discarded first draft of our proposal. He recited it perfectly. Chairman. No punctuation changed. This shows Shen Dai has poor judgment, but lazy. Thank you all for your time. I believe Ding Cheng's solution is the most perfect in the market and the most advanced. Companies facing funding gaps and talent loss probably can't even present complete drawings. Shen Dai is right. We can't deliver the full set of drawings. Xiao, because such trash. We've long since shredded for disposal. Before presenting Sheng Hua's proposal, I'd like to ask the judges a professional question first. Regarding the quaternary karst formation fault beneath Nanning's South City Core District, how does Shen Dai's Cloudtop City plan to resolve the fatal risk of Ground Xing? What nonsense are you saying? What karst fault? We researched geology's sound. Investigated? Or the two fatheads you dug out from our company, our former deputy monitor who told you? Sheng Hua Group spent a month collaborating with HJGE's top-tier surveying team to identify this concealed fault zone at a depth of 50 meters. If we follow the heavy demands of this supposed perfect plan by building high-rises across this area, in less than three years, the entire tech park would suffer irreversible ground subsidence. By then, a billion-dollar project would become a giant graveyard for thousands. That's why this proposal was personally tossed by me into the trash bin three months ago. Impossible. That can't be. Ladies and gentlemen, next, allow me, on behalf of Sunva Group, to present what truly belongs to the future. The symbiotic city concept loading ecobase avoids geological faults augmented by low-carbon eco-friendly materials from Huajian Heavy Industries and bolstered by extreme cost control slashed costs 15% delivers the future responsibly. The bidding outcome was no surprise. Sheng Hua Group, with unanimous approval, secure the future city project. Headquarters. Shen Z had slipped away unnoticed. But, he's not getting far. Mr. Shen Z, we've got real name reports and concrete evidence. You're suspected of stealing Sheng Hua trade secrets and bribing bidding committee members through offshore accounts. That conniving bitch from Sheng Hua framed me. She set me up. And me. I'm sitting in the Maybach, heading back to headquarters, with a celebratory glass of champagne in hand. Chen Jing glances at her tablet, where breaking news flashes about the young master of Ding Cheng Group being arrested. She can't help but chuckle. Chairman, think Shen Z will figure it out in jail. The two deputy supervisors he snatched were bait we set loose. It doesn't matter whether he figures it out or not. In this whole chess game, his use of scrap material has served its purpose. Ding Cheng Group's collapse was faster than anyone imagined. Shen Z went to prison, got dragged down, exposing Ding Cheng's financial fraud, tax evasion, and other violations. Economic Crime Investigation Bureau found everything. That once-untouchable business empire in Jiangbei crashed to the ground within a mere half a month. Meanwhile, Sheng Hua Group, filed for bankruptcy restructuring, not only smoothly took over most of their leftover high-quality market share, but also, thanks to Future City, solidified its position as the nationwide leader in construction materials and real estate. Stocks skyrocketed for a week. Market value more than doubled. On the weekend, I turned down all the celebratory banquets, drove alone to a secluded courtyard villa in the suburbs. Meng, come on. Meng, come get some. Fresh Wuyi rock tea. Pour it yourself. The commotion outside. Heard all about it, right? Causing a stir and chaos. Old guy like me can't pretend to be deaf and mute. Ten years to forge a sword? It's icy blade waiting to be tested. Girl, your sword is even sharper, more resolute than grandpa. Cancer in the South City eradicated internal parasites, cleared out hungry wolves outside, driven away. Now you have Shenghua. My old bones can finally rest easy. He witnessed the debacle unfold at the Nancheng branch. He was trampled under Wang Kun's foot, spat on by Zhao Lihua, and polished anew by my hand. Now, it gleams with a quiet, understated radiance in the sunlight. Grandpa, you laid this vengeance plan ten years ago. I simply completed the work for you. Who set the plan matters not. What matters is who finally claims the seat, finding resolve to seize this disordered board. Only now does this piece belong to you. Chairman, strategic plan for next quarter. The Future City project team already full on-site surveying. HR confirmed Lin Hao's position. Lin Hao from Nancheng didn't join other foreign companies. Instead, he went to a certified construction site. He started as an operator, working outdoors in harsh weather daily. He's gotten darker but works steadily. Contractor praised his hard work. I see. As long as he's willing to get his feet muddy, Shenghua's construction sites will welcome anyone ready to sweat. Notify all department heads, morning meeting in ten minutes. Yes, chairman. The storm has passed, and my era at Shenghua Group has just begun.
