70 -70: Master of Setting Traps, Li Mingtong_1

Before speaking, Li Mingtong himself felt somewhat conflicted and anxious.

Things were not going as smoothly as he had imagined.

In the end, he had overestimated himself and underestimated the intelligence of people at the level of Vice General Manager Wang Ye.

Just now, Vice General Manager Wang Ye’s attitude had, in fact, given him a kind of sternest warning!

To say he wasn’t scared would be a lie.

Nevertheless, Li Mingtong still didn’t want to give up this opportunity.

He had already taken the first step and couldn’t help but want to take the second.

His chips were now all on the table, win or lose, he wanted to give it a try!

If he could use this chance to make Bai Xiaosheng anger Master Song Kai, then Bai Xiaosheng would be in big trouble!

Especially this time, with District Chief Wu Qibing accompanying them, just the district chief’s wrath would be enough for Bai Xiaosheng to cope with!

When that time came, people like Shang Wenshu, an old fox, would most likely sacrifice a pawn to save his chariot, and Vice General Manager Wang Ye might just add insult to injury!

Li Mingtong believed that, for him, the benefits far outweighed the risks!

These last few days, he had been driven somewhat mad by Bai Xiaosheng, becoming irritable and impulsive.

So, he finally made his move!

“You’re the person in charge of this project…

Li Mingtong, I suppose, do you have anything you want to say?” District Chief Wu Qibing looked curiously at Li Mingtong, a man he recognized.

The moment Li Mingtong stood out, a hint of cold light flashed in Wang Ye’s eyes.

This Li Mingtong, he actually dared to ignore his advice!

Shang Wenshu said nothing, watching with a cold eye.

“District Chief Wu, regarding the issues you’ve mentioned, after Master Song’s previous visit, Mr.

Shang and Mrs.

Wang have emphasized them repeatedly, even personally overseeing the rectifications numerous times.

You could say that on our project, everyone from the staff to the managers and vice managers take this extremely seriously.

We ensure that every detail is meticulously accounted for, striving to prevent any lapse into vulgar commerce,” Li Mingtong said with absolute certainty.

“Oh?”

This statement prompted a snort of laughter from District Chief Wu Qibing.

“Vice Manager Li, do you think that the master, myself, Mr.

Shang, and Mrs.

Wang are all blind that we can’t see or make out such a large red backdrop with golden lettering?

Or is it that Vice Manager Li has never seen it?

Well then, the enclosure is still there, you can go and see for yourself!”

District Chief Wu was also somewhat angry.

This matter was actually trivial; the master wasn’t angry, and he mentioned it just to preclude the master from bringing it up again.

This was already giving the project a way out.

Why couldn’t they just take it?

If they were truly that conscientious and responsible, where did that enclosure come from?

Did it fall from the sky?!

“About that enclosure, I also have something to say!” Li Mingtong, far from panicking, spoke solemnly to the district chief, “The day before yesterday, I organized a meeting because our project’s Investment Department wanted to do a promotion, and I asked the Promotion Department to help with it.

That enclosure is very likely their doing.

Perhaps they changed it this morning.

Manager Chen and I were busy preparing and setting up this venue, so we didn’t have time to check.

This was our oversight!”

Li Mingtong admitted fault but was quick to shift blame towards the Promotion Department, the “prime culprit.”

“So, you mean that enclosure was the work of two department heads?

Interesting, just now you said that everyone from staff to managers is against vulgar commerce, and this is the result of your campaign against vulgarity?

Quite effective indeed!”

District Chief Wu said with no small measure of sarcasm.

Master Song Kai picked up his teacup, leisurely blew on the leaves, and began to elegantly savor his tea, as if this topic had nothing to do with him.

District Chief Wu glanced at the master and felt somewhat surprised in his heart.

His old teacher had seemingly tempered his fiery temper in just a few days!

Had this been before, the old man would have jumped up and pointed at Li Mingtong’s nose, cursing, “The hell you talking about!”

“I still need to explain something about this matter to you!” Li Mingtong continued.

Wang Ye and Shang Wenshu both had somewhat unpleasant expressions on their faces behind him.

Li Mingtong was finally about to show his fangs!

This man, regardless of the overall situation, sought personal revenge under the guise of official authority, and was venomous enough—truly the heart of a venomous snake!

“You might not know that our project’s long-time employees have been reminded many times and are all aware of the importance.

However, our marketing department recently got a new supervisor, and this new supervisor hasn’t been around long, so it’s inevitable that there are oversights!”

Li Mingtong’s answer was very clever.

What he said was true, but stating these facts at this crucial moment was bound to lead to misunderstandings.

District Chief Wu Qibing frowned.

Wang Ye’s gaze flickered slightly.

Li Mingtong was going against his wishes—an infuriating move, but his ruthless tactics and boldness were somewhat admirable to him.

Shang Wenshu also raised his head, his eyes slightly cold.

Li Mingtong dug this “pit” well!

Using “facts” to solidify Bai Xiaosheng’s responsibility, even if the master and district chief realized later that it was a misunderstanding, that would be their own fault for misunderstanding and they couldn’t blame Li Mingtong!

District Chief Wu Qibing spoke up.

“A new supervisor?

With that kind of barricade quality, even those second-rate small studios on the street could do better.

And he’s the marketing supervisor?

How do you manage personnel on your project?!”

District Chief Wu’s questioning was getting more heated, and this pleased Li Mingtong inside.

“What the district chief doesn’t know,” Li Mingtong glanced at Shang Wenshu, his face showing a moment’s hesitation, “is that our new supervisor isn’t just anyone; he was brought in by Mr.

Shang.

Actually, he’s very capable.

Recently, he led his department to produce an excellent set of promotional materials in just three or four days.

I think it could be because he’s been so busy lately that some minor areas were neglected.”

Li Mingtong seemed to be making excuses for Bai Xiaosheng, but in reality, he effectively sealed Shang Wenshu’s lips, forcing him to avoid conflict of interest while also bringing up the matter of the promotional materials.

Consider this: A master so protective of his reputation would pay such close attention to a simple barricade—what about the promotional materials, which have a significant role in advertising?

Would he not care even more about that!

Sure enough, Master Song Kai’s motion to drink from his teacup halted, and his eyebrows even furrowed slightly.

“You’re talking about the promotional materials?!” Master Song Kai spoke up.

“Yes.” Li Mingtong quickly replied.

“I was so preoccupied with my thoughts just now that I didn’t notice.

The marketing department…

the marketing department…” Master Song Kai muttered and then suddenly asked, “What’s the name of this new supervisor of the marketing department?!”

“Bai Xiaosheng!” Li Mingtong quickly answered.

“Are you saying he finished a whole set of promotional materials?” Master Song Kai put down his teacup, looking interested.

“Teacher, you really want to see it, huh,” District Chief Wu said with a laugh, intervening.

He was worried that the teacher might form a bad impression of the new supervisor and then see a set of commercial-looking promotional materials, which could upset him and be awkward for the project team.

Seeing the district chief seemingly trying to intervene, Li Mingtong felt a surge of anxiety, looking nervously towards the master.

Li Mingtong was even silently praying.

Master Song Kai, you must ask Bai Xiaosheng to report—otherwise, all my efforts this morning repeated brainwashing would be in vain!

“Let him come over and explain it to me!”

Master Song Kai finally said those words.

Li Mingtong was ecstatic.

Bai Xiaosheng, now you are finished!
