Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 854: Chapter 854: The Second Thunderbolt

Project marketing center, meeting room.

Deputy Mayor Sun took the lead in applauding; he pressed his hands downward, and the venue quickly quieted down.

Deputy Mayor Sun said with a smile, ”Bai, right? You spoke well! An assistant who understands the project to this extent fully proves that you all are genuinely invested! This work ethic deserves recognition. This round of applause is a show of thanks to your project team!”

Deputy Mayor Sun extemporaneously delivered a few minutes of remarks, which served as an affirmation and expectation for the project.

”Alright, let’s continue. I’ve heard that you’ve adjusted the new costs. All related department leaders are here, so let’s all listen and discuss together,” Deputy Mayor Sun said, taking a seat.

So they were finally discussing this part!

Su Dazhong was full of confidence.

He had reviewed a portion yesterday and another this morning.

The adjustments made by Bai Xiaosheng were so impressive that even an expert like him couldn’t praise them enough. He believed the leaders would be extremely satisfied.

Su Dazhong looked at Bai Xiaosheng full of expectation, hoping he would seize this productive start to finish strongly and please the leaders.

”As long as Deputy Mayor Sun gives his approval here, what can Han Xuancheng do to make things difficult for me!” Su Dazhong couldn’t help saying.

However, thinking of Han Xuancheng’s tactics this time, Su Dazhong couldn’t help but feel sorrow and indignation!

Why resort to this!

In such a situation, it was like putting the company’s interests aside, completely irresponsible!

Beyond his anger, Su Dazhong felt immensely sad.

Even if he knew Han Xuancheng was playing dirty, what could he do, tell Mr. Chen?

Without concrete evidence, would Chen Qingyun believe him?

If he spoke out, whether believed or not, it would deeply offend Han Xuancheng!

Moreover, even if Chen Qingyun believed him, what would it change? Would he punish a prospective general manager?

”At most, it would just be a reprimand,” Su Dazhong thought bitterly.

Following that, once Chen Qingyun leaves, Han Xuancheng will be the general manager of Liucheng Real Estate; his days could be predicted.

It seems my aspirations for becoming a deputy general manager are merely a dream!

Su Dazhong even felt somewhat disheartened.

Even if he managed to achieve it, facing a supervisor like Han Xuancheng, he didn’t know how long he could last.

The joy Bai Xiaosheng brought him was entirely dispelled by these disordered thoughts.

Nevertheless, he rallied his spirits, preparing to perfectly conclude the current meeting.

”Mayor, look, although this time’s cost adjustment is complete, before reporting, we’d like to hear if the leaders present have any new supplementary requirements. Then, we can proceed with the report and discuss,” he said.

Just as Su Dazhong was looking forward to Bai Xiaosheng continuing strongly, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly spoke.

Deputy Mayor Sun was taken aback, then nodded and smiled, ”That’s a good idea. You’ve been speaking for a long time, must be thirsty, take a break.”

”Thank you, leader, I am indeed quite thirsty,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a laugh, seizing the opportunity to make a light joke.

Deputy Mayor Sun laughed heartily, very fond of this young man.

The others present, by association, also expressed no objections to Bai Xiaosheng’s request.

”Then I’ll start,” said a leader from the Municipal Construction, standing up to speak first.

Su Dazhong watched as Bai Xiaosheng returned to his seat, drinking water while attentively listening to the government official’s speech, and couldn’t help but admire inwardly, ”This young man, to be so composed in such a setting, is truly remarkable!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s request for the government officials to speak first was not really to take a break or have a drink of water.

Instead, he suddenly thought, what if Han Xuancheng had set more than one trap?

The possibility was minute.

After all, Su Dazhong and Han Xuancheng did not have deep hatred; it wouldn’t be to the death.

But Bai Xiaosheng always felt that since he had thought of it, it’s better to be prudent rather than negligent.

If carelessly handled, at best, Su Dazhong would be unlucky; at worst, the company’s interests would be damaged!

As Bai Xiaosheng listened to each government leader speak, he was mentally comparing the documents provided by Han Xuancheng, checking for any discrepancies.

One by one, the leaders spoke, and their demands matched the information given by Han Xuancheng—there were no issues.

Just as Bai Xiaosheng was beginning to relax, the last speaker, a leader from the City Engineering Quality Supervision Station, stood up to speak, ”What I would like to mention is regarding a few adjustments to the technical indicators.”

It was clear that this leader, wearing glasses, had an engineering background; his logic was very strict, and he included many numbers in his speech.

Bai Xiaosheng’s pupils suddenly constricted.

Su Dazhong couldn’t help but widen his eyes too.

They heard several key figures that did not match the data given by Han Xuancheng!

Su Dazhong couldn’t help but glance at Bai Xiaosheng, who slightly furrowed his brow before relaxing it.

It seemed as if those errors were unimportant.

But how could they be unimportant!

At this, Su Dazhong felt his heart almost reach his throat.

Errors in a few critical data points could lead to a series of chain reactions.

To correct them, most of the data would even need to be recalculated; how long would that take!

And now, during the meeting, they were about to present to the leaders; what if Deputy Mayor Sun and the others saw it!

The government had provided accurate data, consistently valuing its importance, even having the deputy mayor personally lead the team to see the project results.

And yet, the results were still wrong!

Su Dazhong felt his head buzzing, his ears ringing constantly.

It was over; everything was over!

Just as he was succumbing to despair, Bai Xiaosheng leaned over and whispered to him, ”No matter what you say, buy me half an hour; I’ll handle the rest.”

Su Dazhong blankly looked at Bai Xiaosheng, who had already grabbed the laptop next to him, opening up the documents.

Was he trying to make corrections?

But half an hour, what could be done in such short time...

”Well said, now it’s your turn to report.”

Before Su Dazhong could look carefully, Deputy Mayor Sun spoke out loudly.

The leader from the City Engineering Quality Supervision Station had already sat down, and Su Dazhong felt his legs go weak, sensing his career might just be coming to an end.

”Not yet, I can’t give up. If Bai Xiaosheng hasn’t bowed his head, I can’t be worse than a younger man!” Su Dazhong clenched his teeth and stood up.

Feeling shaky, he even used three fingers of his right hand to press against the table for support.

”Deputy Mayor Sun, and distinguished leaders, before reporting the new costs, I personally have two questions that I would like to discuss with everyone, and these concern how our project can better adapt to the market,” Su Dazhong said.

Previously, while Bai Xiaosheng talked about project progress, he had thought about these issues, and he hadn’t expected them to come in handy now.

”Oh?” Deputy Mayor Sun said with interest, ”Let’s hear them!”

Su Dazhong took a deep breath, and began to speak slowly.

Bai Xiaosheng had said before that Su Dazhong was a person with a holistic view and a broad perspective.

Thinking about these two issues, though initially seeming rough, the perspectives were definitely refreshing.

Deputy Mayor Sun nodded repeatedly, and the crowd whispered among themselves.

Twenty-five minutes later, Bai Xiaosheng suddenly stood up, ”Distinguished leaders, bearing these questions in mind, please listen to our new cost report!”

Su Dazhong looked at Bai Xiaosheng in surprise.

So soon, they were about to report?

Could it be, in such a short time, Bai Xiaosheng had found a solution!
