The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

in other words...

As long as both sides can continue to wear each other down...

So sooner or later...

The once colossal Imperial Japan faction will surely disappear completely into the dustbin of history!

As for Lee Ja-sung...

to be honest...

Even Ding Xin couldn't quite figure out Shi Dongchu's intentions behind this arrangement!

after all...

From a conventional perspective...

Both are senior executives of subsidiaries Kinmen Entertainment and Kinmen Department Store.

Since the president, Zhang Shouji, has been held accountable and removed from office, then even if the vice president, Li Zicheng, is not held accountable, he should not be promoted!

However...

The reality before us is quite different...

......

Chapter 524 Exchange of Interests

So what exactly is its purpose?

Ding Xin slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, his gaze shifting back and forth between Li Zicheng, Ding Qing, and Shi Dongchu.

After thinking it over...

But there are only three possibilities left!

The first possibility...

It was to demonstrate his magnanimity and vision to everyone present!

Tell everyone...

He, Shi Dongchu, is the chairman of this group; he's not a person, but someone who's involved in the issues...

Furthermore, their control over various internal affairs of the group is also meticulous!

after all...

Everyone can see the actual situation of Kinmen Entertainment's subsidiary and Kinmen Department Store.

They also know who should be most responsible for the losses of these two subsidiaries.

And he, Shi Dongchu...

Even now, when it comes to holding those responsible accountable, there is no intention to use this as an excuse to further suppress others!

at the same time...

It could also be seen as sending a goodwill signal to Ding Qing!

It's a sort of half-hearted attempt to win them over...

Winning hearts and minds!

What's the second possibility...?

This is sending a message to Zhang Shouji!

Although Shi Dongchu, the chairman, initiated the dismissal of him at the meeting, it was not only the Tiger Faction that truly wanted to deal with him!

This current system of praising one while criticizing the other...

They trampled down Zhang Shouji of the Imperial Japan faction, but promoted Li Zicheng of the Peking University faction.

This undoubtedly proves one thing...

There are likely some under-the-table deals between the Peking University faction and the Tiger faction!

If we delve a little deeper...

The Xinyi faction, which is on good terms with the Peking University faction, is also very likely to be part of the deal!

in other words...

This meeting was a joint effort by the three major factions within the Kinmen Group to suppress the Imperial Japan faction!

so...

Even if Zhang Shouji wants to rebel or retaliate in the future...

We also need to consider whether we can withstand a joint attack from the three major gangs!

at the same time...

It also has the effect of diverting attention from the conflict!

It was practically forcing Zhang Shouji to suppress his resentment for the time being!

or...

Let him temporarily suppress his anger...

He vented all his anger on Cui Beizhen, the second-in-command of the Imperial Japanese Army faction, who had already been proven to have betrayed him!

As for the last possibility...

Let's make some malicious guesses.

perhaps...

Shi Dongchu was acting with the same mindset he had when dealing with Zhang Shouji.

He wanted to use the fact that Li Zicheng had taken the initiative to promote him to plant a seed of discord in Ding Qing's heart...

This made Ding Qing a little suspicious...

So that they could sow discord between these two good brothers?

certainly...

Relatively speaking...

Ding Xin believed that Shi Dongchu was not so superficial.

His recommendation of Lee Ja-sung should also lean towards the first or second possibility.

or...

The first possibility is more likely to combine with the second!

After figuring these things out...

Ding Xin slightly opened his squinted eyes.

Next...

What he needs to consider is whether or not to support Shi Dongchu's proposed personnel adjustment plan.

It's no exaggeration to say...

Of the shareholders present today, those who are currently qualified and have grounds to raise objections...

Only Ding Xin was left!

so...

Will he raise any objections?

of course not!

after all...

The personnel arrangement proposed by Shi Dongchu...

Putting aside any personal motives, it was ultimately about suppressing Zhang Shouji!

Ding Xin had no need or reason to object.

but...

It was precisely because of Shi Dong's selfish motives that our Uncle Ding saw an opportunity to make some profit.

to be honest...

Our Uncle Ding has always liked to maximize profits!

Even a passing goose gets its feather plucked!

so...

Even if he has no intention of refuting it, he will still seize the opportunity to squeeze some money out of others.

"President Shi..."

Ding Xin suddenly shouted.
