Chapter 651
Today’s quarterly presentation is not just for the top bra*s of the venus group, it is after all a big event in the international business world.
So in addition to the press and media, there are also some of the big and powerful families who have received invitations.
All countries were represented, gathered in the most luxurious hotel in country J.
Joseph vaguely remembered that Fu Yunshen seemed to be the young master of some powerful family in China.
It was no big deal then to get in, it was just a bit of family glory at best.
Joseph smiled, not smiling, with a bit of condescension: “It’s quite a coincidence, but unfortunately, you’re no longer the master.”
He had a bit of a problem with Fu Yunshen, but he didn’t think much of it either.
The only thing that surprised Joseph was that before he could take action against Fu Yunshen as executive director, the headquarters had already removed him from his post.
This was a favour to him.
Joseph had no intention of continuing the conversation with Fu Yunshen, and after raising his gla*s demonstratively, he gave a laugh and left.
He had other guests to entertain and had no time to spend here.
Ian had already walked over by this time and opened his mouth, “Old–”
Fu Yunshen raised his eyes and gave him a faint look.
The natural, windy eyes still held a smile, but the warning was strong.
Ian instantly swallowed the words that followed.
He had to stop and pretend to inspect, turn around and go to the other side again.
No way.
Their big boss just wanted to be a handful and hated to have all the work shifted to him.
It was the time for the guests to enter and there were a lot of people.
Ian knew that if he went through like this, Fu Yunshen wouldn’t be able to get out of the presentation before it started.
The guests filed in and the camera equipment was set up.
Today’s venus group quarterly presentation was a live global broadcast.
Elder Zhong is also wearing a rare suit, and his whole body is in high spirits: “Ho, how grand, worthy of my grandson-in-law.”
Ying Ziji followed behind.
Her eyes flicked over and landed on the food cart pushed by the waiter.
There was a small dessert she liked to eat today.
On the other hand, Fu Yijian and Ying Tianru had come together.
Both of them are now the heads of the group, but they are inevitably a bit tied up.
Both Fu’s and Ying’s groups are among the top 500 companies in China, not even close to the world’s number one.
Master Zhong looked around, “D**ky, where’s the Fu boy?”
“He’s gone upstairs to prepare his report for later.” Ying Zidian looked up and raised an eyebrow, “I wrote the draft.”
Master Zhong nodded and sat down in the first row according to the seat number on the invitation.
There were very few oriental faces in this row, and many people were looking this way.
There was confusion and murmuring.
Ying Zigui put on his mask and leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed.
**
On the other side, Ian was still exchanging ideas with CTO Josie about the presentation.
“Director Ian, Ian!” Neil rushed over in a huff, “The boss is here, isn’t he? Can I meet?”
Ian was tough, “No, it was agreed that the boss would introduce the new products himself later, what are you doing in such a hurry?”
“Please, please.” Neil folded his arms, “Please, let me meet, I’ve been waiting for this for ages.”
“Alright, you boys are allowed to see the boss early.” Ian was impatient and took a step back, “You have a drink first.”
Neil was a little confused, “Why do you need a drink? How dare I drink when I’m meeting the boss?”
“I’m afraid you won’t be able to take it in for a while.” Ian smiled, meaningfully, “Drinking strengthens the nerves.”
Neil was confused.
But also obediently asked for a gla*s of red wine from a pa*sing waiter, and after smothering it in one gulp, rubbed his hands together, “Is that okay?”
“A302,” Ian quoted a number, “This room, remember to knock.”
Neil couldn’t wait to get upstairs.
He soon arrived at the door of room a302.
Neil knocked on the door, cautiously, “Boss, it’s Neil, can I come in?”
Just as he finished speaking, the door opened.
The doors in this hotel were all automatic.
Apparently the person inside the room had heard it and pressed the button.
Neil was delighted and immediately walked in and bowed deeply.
“Boss, it’s Neil.” He was so nervous that he didn’t even dare to look up, “I can’t lie, I’ve admired you for a long time, you’re my idol.”
“I’m so happy to meet you.”
“Well, I know.” A voice rang out, an authentic British accent, low and pleasant with a touch of playfulness, “You gave me that.”
Neil froze.
Said it?
When had he said that?
And there seemed to be something familiar about this this voice.
Neil lifted his head.
The man was sitting at his desk, his long legs folded.
He wore a silky black shirt, the top two buttons unbuttoned to reveal his delicate collarbone.
Mysterious and sexy.
The man raised his head too.
On getting a good look at his demonic face, Neil’s whole body cracked in an instant: “!!!”
His legs also went weak in an instant and he almost fell to his knees.
“Neil, how is it?” Fu Yunshen lifted his eyes, “How are you getting on in the Asia-Pacific region?”
“Is there anything you’re not used to? Should I hire you a personal doctor?”
Neil’s eyes were dull, his mind was a muddle, unable to think at all.
He didn’t know how long it took before he jumped up like he was waking up from a dream, looking almost horrified, “You you you ……”
“I gave you the words for Ian to take with him, didn’t I? Work well.” Fu Yunshen hooked his lips and laughed low, “If the profit drops a point, you know the result.”
Neil finally let out a heartbreaking scream, “Boss?”
He was blind, completely blind.
How could this happen?
“It’s me, stop howling.” Fu Yunshen’s eyes returned to the computer, his voice tinged with laughter, “If there’s nothing to do, go out and do more work.”
“If you need a group photo, you can come and take it after the presentation.”
Neil fled and closed the door behind him.
He emerged from the suite in a trance, his steps down the stairs faltering.
Someone greeted him on the way, and he acted as if he hadn’t seen them.
Neil’s soul had been completely blown out of the water.
When he thought about what he had done and said a few days ago, he wanted to slap himself.
He had asked Fu Yunshen to be the sales director for Asia Pacific?
When the venus group was in a desperate situation, Fu Yunshen was the only one who could save the day and break through the pressure of the four major zaibatsu on the o-continent.
He’s an idiot.
Neil woodenly returned to the VIP table, his whole body was in pain, lying on the table and not wanting to get up.
Ian sighed, “See, one gla*s of wine still isn’t enough.”
Josie shrugged.
“Joseph, why is Neil acting like he’s seen a ghost?” On the other side of the VIP table, the woman frowned, “What did he see?”
“Whatever he did.” Joseph faded, “He can’t affect our plans anyway.”
At four o’clock, the quarterly report meeting began.
First Ian took the stage and summarised the venus group’s financial report for the quarter.
Immediately after, it was CTO cto Josie.
“These are the two new products that we are about to launch at venus group.” Josie opened a PowerPoint and introduced, “One is a new driverless car, and the other is a simulation robot.”
“Both of these technological products are personally supervised and experimented with by our Executive Director, so this time he will come on stage and explain them to you personally.”
With the fall of this sentence, the atmosphere of the entire venue rose to its peak.
The journalists also got excited and all raised their cameras.
This was the first time that the CEO of the venus group had appeared in front of the public.
The internet was even more abuzz.
On the Chinese side, there were quite a few people watching the live broadcast.
There were quite a few people who were paying attention because Fu Yunshen had been removed from his position.
[The executive director removed Mr. Fu, bad vision, didn’t like it.]
What kind of President Fu, can he compare with the executive director? I think you guys are blowing up this Mr. Fu every day, but I’m afraid it’s not because he has a good face, right?
[With all due respect, the CEO of the venus group is a business elite with real skills, so don’t compare Fu Yunshen to him.
“Chief Executive.” Qiao Xi turned around, very respectful, “Please.”
The lights fell with a swish, hitting the red carpet.
A pair of long, slender legs were visible.
[Don’t say a word, it’s coming.
[All eyes on you! What does an executive really look like? Place your bets, I’m guessing fifty.]
[Those legs! I’m guessing thirty, not so sharp at fifty.
Joseph straightened his suit and looked up absently.
The lights moved.
At the same time, a face was reflected on the big screen.
The man’s features were deep and handsome.
A typical oriental face.
Beautiful but aggressive.
There was a sudden silence.
The invited journalists from China stared blankly ahead, their minds buzzing.
Between a flurry of sparks, only six words remained in their minds.
The international business community, exploded!
Chapter 652
The CEO of the world’s number one conglomerate, the venus group, is a Chinese national!
This is a big news story that has rocked the international business world!
The reporter’s hand shook and almost smashed the camera to the ground.
He shivered and held the stand of his SLR camera, his hands and feet were cold and his blood was flowing backwards.
It was over-excitement and excitement.
As we all know, the venus group accounts for nearly seventy of the top 500 companies in the world.
On top of that, there are quite a few laboratories.
The real giants of the business world.
It was their country of China!
“……”
Dead silence, or a dead silence.
Everyone looked at the man standing behind the lectern, their eyes wide.
It was true that Fu Yunshen could not be considered famous in o continent and other regions.
It was especially because of their deep-seated contempt for the Orientals and their own arrogance that some of the employees of the venus group were quite critical of Fu Yunshen.
But now, a Chinese national is in control of the world’s number one group.
Wasn’t this a slap in the face to the whole of O-continent?
Joseph stood up violently, his face pale, almost afraid to believe what he was seeing.
He looked dead at the demonic man in the middle of the lectern, his fingers clenched and his teeth creaked: “No, it can’t be ……”
Fu Yunshen, how could he be the executive director?!
All these years, he was working for a Chinese man again?
What a joke!
Neil also recovered from the sinking blow by this time.
He immediately applauded and started to brag, “Our boss, really is the most handsome person in this world!”
As soon as Neil led the applause, the others followed suit, applauding as if they had just woken up.
The hall thundered with applause.
Only Joseph’s face was so dark that water could drip out of it.
There were so many cameras around him that he had to control his emotions, which were on the verge of breaking, and restrain himself from sitting down.
The woman blanched, “Joseph, what about it?”
“What about what?” Joseph gritted his teeth, “Stick to the plan of course, it doesn’t matter who the executive is.”
But he couldn’t face it at all.
Neil applauded wildly, just short of dancing his hands around.
“Ah Neil.” Ian tsked, “Didn’t you say last week that you were going to make the boss your subordinate and be some kind of sales director?”
“Did I say that?” Neil said righteously, “I didn’t say that at all, I only said that I would always be at the service of the Executive Director, trying to boost the group’s profits and make the Executive Director a lot of money!”
Ian: “……”
Sick.
The netizens watching the live stream also howled, each one going crazy.
[Crap!!!]
[Brothers, hit the bullseye on the public screen!
[Bullsh*t, this is me firing my own squid and then flipping over to become a big boss, big brother’s operation, we really can’t understand it.]
[Those keyboard warriors at the front, gobsmacked, they’re now going to change their names to Executive Director Fu!
[Ahhhhh, the pride of China!
Fu Yunshen lifted his index finger and pressed it to his lower lip.
He gave a lazy laugh: “Shh…”
It was a simple gesture, but it carried a deadly appeal.
The meeting room instantly fell silent.
There was no sound at all.
Fu Yunshen’s voice pressed down and smiled again, “Gentlemen, don’t look at me, look at the screen.”
Even though he said this, basically everyone’s eyes were still following him.
It was completely impossible to move away.
This man had a powerful and mysterious charm that naturally glowed.
“This is the venus group’s new self-driving rechargeable car.” Fu Yunshen pointed to the model on the PowerPoint, “We’ve made new modifications to the tyres, look here, it can take to the air for five metres.”
“That means if there is a traffic jam on the road, you can press the converter to turn the vehicle into flight mode.”
“The car is powered by electricity and can be solar charged without causing any pollution.”
“Ying, your technology is developing really fast.” Sinai marvelled, “This would be the predecessor of air transport, and the World City was only invented thirty years after cars became completely popular.”
Ying smiled very softly, “He’s always been great.”
She looked up at the man, light in her pretty phoenix eyes.
“But it is genetic engineering that is most developed in the City of Worlds.” Sinai said, “I used to …… no, the institute over there would specialize in some super warriors.”
Ying looked down, pondering, “Super warriors?”
“Yes, changing the dna sequence on the genes or inserting some fragments will enable the modified person to have strength, speed and so on beyond that of ordinary people.” Sinai explained, “It’s like those super soldiers in your sci-fi movies, a quarter of the Four Knights are now genetically modified.”
“But this genetic engineering was only started at the end of the last century, and failed quite a few times before it was completely successful twenty years ago.”
Ying Ziji’s eyes deepened slightly.
A genetically modified super warrior was a human being whose physical qualities had been forcefully altered by external forces.
It was not that the ancient martial artists themselves had broadened their physical limits through ancient martial arts, so their lifespan would not increase.
There is even the possibility of early death due to genetic mutation.
But it’s still terrifying.
With this technology in place, a powerful army could be created at any time.
If the City of Worlds invaded the seven continents and four oceans, no one but ancient martial artists would be able to resist.
No wonder the City of Worlds is proud of everything.
But this kind of genetic engineering is absolutely forbidden on Earth.
As early as two years ago, the venus group and many scientists had jointly issued a statement banning any human experimentation.
Ying suddenly thought of what Fu Yunshen had told her.
Qin Lingyu, a failed product of genetic modification.
Could it be that ……
On the stage.
Fu Yunshen had already finished narrating the two products.
After he walked down, the crowd’s eyes were still glued to his back, unable to look back.
It was a shock.
Only shocked.
Not only because of Fu Yunshen’s identity, but also because of these two new high-tech products.
Definitely pushing the boundaries of technology.
“Hey, hey, gentlemen, back to the soul, although our Executive Director is very handsome, but looking at handsome men should be in moderation.” The host coughed solemnly a few times, “Next, I will introduce you all to the heavyweight dignitaries.”
“Welcome the President of Country J, His Excellency James.”
[The president of country J is here?
[That’s the president’s daughter, right? Wow, that’s a real rich white girl, so elegant, she’s a good match for Executive Director Fu!
The camera immediately focused on the father and daughter of the president of j country and gave a close-up.
James waved his hand towards the camera with a kind smile, “Hello, gentlemen.”
Beside him, the young girl, wearing a court dress and a polite purple top, nodded in a very high-handed manner.
Ian paled, “Oh no.”
Josie remembered too and he frowned, “It’s some sh*t, how did she get in here?”
Ian sulked, “Probably disguised as a bodyguard so we didn’t notice, gotta give the boss a heads up.”
He drew out his phone and immediately sent a text message to Fu Yunshen.
Neither man looked very good.
Joseph caught a glimpse of it and thought the two men were finally realising the crisis in the group.
He turned his head sideways and smiled, “Director Ian, Director Josie, this is your last chance, it’s not too late for you to join forces with me.”
“How about if I become the executive director, your positions won’t change either?”
So what if Fu Yunshen was the CEO of the venus group?
As long as Laurent Bank froze all the liquid funds, there was nothing Fu Yunshen could do.
Ian sneered, “With you?”
“Yes, with me.” Joseph laughed again, “I didn’t think Fu Yunshen was the CEO, you’ve concealed it well enough, I concede defeat.”
“But you guys couldn’t get 10% of the shares to make a deal with the Laurent family, could you?”
The members of the Laurent family were notorious for recognising only money but not people.
Seeing Ian turn pale, Joseph shrugged his shoulders and was in a better mood.
The host was still continuing his introduction.
Suddenly, his voice raised and he said mysteriously, “Last but not least, the heavyweight guest, who is in charge of a large family, please ask him to come up.”
The lights came down once more and the crowd held their breath, but didn’t take much notice.
Ahead of them was the President of J. A family leader was a little insignificant compared to the President.
The breath Joseph was holding finally let go and a smile appeared.
He knew who it was.
The man in charge of the Laurent family.
The man who had come to help him take down the Venus Group.
The young man was dressed in a white suit with a blue tie.
Once again, the female gaze was taken away.
[Other than that, he’s really handsome.]
[I don’t think it’s a particularly big family, right? Anyway, the four major zaibatsu sides of the o-continent are all old men.]
Cesar stood still on the stage.
He straightened his collar and smiled at the camera, his blue eyes as deep as the sea.
“Hello gentlemen, first time meeting, I am Cesar Laurent.”
Once again, the venue became dead silent.
Laurent!
