Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1484: Chapter 1295: ”Under the Spotlight,” A Small Meeting_3

Thinking about it, at tomorrow’s meeting, some of those regional leaders will surely be criticized...

Bai Xiaosheng continued, ”Mr. Jiang Kuo even told me privately that he believes our Greater China Region should be number one! Being among the top, in the top three, is not an honor, but rather a deficiency!”

Bai Xiaosheng spoke with a heavy tone.

Everyone couldn’t help but hold their breath.

Even Xiahou Qi focused on Bai Xiaosheng, listening intently.

Then, Bai Xiaosheng eloquently spoke about several obvious major issues in the Greater China Region, which wasn’t a fresh topic, as many of the attendees were already aware of these issues.

Nonetheless, as the conversation went on, even someone as time-conscious as Bai Xiaosheng spent nearly an hour on it.

The senior affairs officers present exchanged glances, conveying their emotions silently.

How did it feel like, after listening, this didn’t quite align with today’s agenda?

”Mr. Xiaosheng,” finally, Shang Dadong raised his hand, as if wanting to speak.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at him calmly, signaling for him to speak.

Shang Dadong smiled warmly and spoke in a gentle voice, ”What you’ve said makes us all feel quite ashamed. After all, we are all part of the Greater China Region, and who doesn’t wish for our region to achieve higher and better development?”

”However, today’s meeting is our Affairs Department’s meeting.”

Shang Dadong looked around at everyone and said, ”What is our Affairs Department? It’s a supervisory department. What you’ve been talking about seems mostly related to business affairs, doesn’t it? It seems like you should save it for tomorrow, to discuss with the regional leaders. Even if you tell us, we can’t really help after knowing our shame, as our functions are limited and we can’t meddle in specific affairs.”

Shang Dadong implied that while what Bai Xiaosheng said about performance and development was good,

it wasn’t really their concern!

In fact, Shang Dadong was genuinely uninterested in these matters, finding them even boring. What he cared about were the topics Bai Xiaosheng mentioned the day before, concerning organizational structure and various adjustment policies.

Those were the things that affected their interests!

After Shang Dadong finished speaking, several senior affairs officers nodded subtly, seemingly agreeing with Shang Dadong’s words.

Bai Xiaosheng seemed to have strayed off-topic, and quite far off.

”Mr. Xiaosheng, didn’t you say that the headquarters is concerned with issues brought by Shen Peishen, and our topic today is also supposed to address those areas?” Zhao Xinyu also chimed in with a smile, seemingly providing a friendly reminder.

Sitting nearby, Han Richeng couldn’t help but eye Shang, and Zhao, feeling displeased.

Bai Xiaosheng’s comments had been fine with him—

Especially avoiding the mention of Shen Peishen!

Mentioning him would inevitably include him!

Han Richeng feared Bai Xiaosheng would use him as an example, to show results to the headquarters and make him the scapegoat!

He was personally promoted by Shen Peishen, something that couldn’t be changed!

Moreover, during Shen Peishen’s tenure, Han Richeng had helped with many tasks.

No matter how he tried to make amends, he couldn’t cover that up.

Even if three or four senior affairs officers stood up for him, said ”fair words,” if Bai Xiaosheng truly intended to deal with him, it would still be ”irrefutable facts,” and no one could stop it!

This was Han Richeng’s real worry.

So Han Richeng wasn’t afraid of Bai Xiaosheng straying off-topic but feared Bai Xiaosheng’s focus on this.

With Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu’s reminders, Han Richeng, now anxious, saw Bai Xiaosheng looking at them, seemingly sweeping his gaze over him, causing his heart rate to spike.

”Today’s and even tomorrow’s meetings will undoubtedly focus on resolving issues caused by Shen Peishen. However, it also includes other crucial matters. As senior affairs officers, you can’t just focus on what’s in your hands but must consider the bigger picture. Only then can you perform your duties better.”

Bai Xiaosheng smiled at Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu, ”To me, each senior affairs officer is like the white and yellow lines on the road, setting rules for the ’vehicles’ below, ensuring they don’t make mistakes or stray off course. It’s not just about keeping an eye on the small errors but also supervising the general direction!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s words made Xiahou Qi, who had been silent beside him, nod slightly, indicating deep agreement.

”Haha, Mr. Xiaosheng is capable, and whatever you say, we’ll listen.” Shang Dadong chuckled and said to Zhao Xinyu beside him.

Zhao Xinyu also smiled and nodded in agreement.

The two had the demeanor of ”You’re the boss, say whatever you wish,” making Bai Xiaosheng’s actions seem somewhat domineering.

This subtly reinforced the impression of Bai Xiaosheng being autocratic in the minds of other senior affairs officers.

The other senior affairs officers remained silent.

But Han Richeng couldn’t hold back, speaking up immediately, ”Shang Dadong, Zhao Xinyu, however, the leader instructs, we just listen. What Mr. Xiaosheng said is all about the grand vision, and as senior affairs officers, we really can’t be indifferent!”

Han Richeng unexpectedly publicly challenged his senior colleagues.

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu gave him a cold glance, seemingly even snorting slightly, showing extreme disdain for Han Richeng’s flattery.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at Han Richeng, his gaze seeming to carry a touch of welcome and appreciation.

Han Richeng instantly felt a false sense of spring warmth.

But what Bai Xiaosheng said next abruptly threw Han Richeng from this spring into a harsh winter.

”Alright, since senior affairs officers Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu mentioned it, let’s return to the main topic, discussing how to purge the trouble left by Shen Peishen, and people!”

The last three words ”and people” felt like a knife stabbing into Han Richeng’s heart, causing it to throb.

In his mind, Han Richeng was practically cursing, feeling utterly despondent.

Damn you, Shang Dadong, Zhao Xinyu!

Everything was fine, why did you have to remind Bai Xiaosheng?!
