Under One Person, Mountain and Sea Painting Demon

Through special air channels, Ma Xianhong, Lu Huan and the eight top talents have all been sent to the company headquarters.

However, due to time constraints and the busy affairs of the head office, they were all temporarily detained in solitary confinement and would not get their turn until the board of directors was done.

At this moment, on the upper floor of the company, Director Zhao was sitting in the conference room, waiting for an emergency meeting to be held. His pair of glasses reflected the light in the conference room, making it difficult to see his eyes behind the glasses.

Soon, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and four figures hurriedly walked in. It didn't look like they were there for a meeting, but rather to... hold someone accountable.

"Zhao Fangxu, what do you mean? You didn't inform us about such a big thing. The company is decided by you alone, right?" As soon as he came in, Mr. Huang Boren started to attack him.

Snapped!

He walked quickly to Mr. Zhao, slammed the table hard, stared at him intently, and shouted, "Don't you want to be the chairman anymore?"

"..."

In the face of his rebuke, Mr. Zhao said nothing, but just raised his head slightly, and the reflection on the lenses flashed slightly.

He knew that no matter whether his actions were reasonable or not, they would definitely be used as a handle by these guys. After all, they had been coveting his position as chairman for a long time and had been looking for an opportunity to overthrow him.

Fortunately, his luck this time was really good. Facts have proved that his decision was completely correct. He narrowed his eyes and a smile appeared in his eyes.

And then...

"Everyone is here, so please take a seat. Since everyone is here, the meeting... can begin." Without paying attention to Director Huang, Director Zhao spoke softly.

Snapped!

"Zhao Fangxu, have you been the chairman for too long and have you become insane? Chairman Bi hasn't arrived yet. You are being too arrogant to talk like that!" Upon hearing this, Huang Boren's eyes flashed with cunning, and he immediately yelled.

"Oh, sorry, I forgot to inform you that due to special reasons, Director Bi must resign from the board of directors. This is the document just issued by the higher-ups. You can take a look." Director Zhao remained calm. As he spoke, he reached into the drawer, took out a document, and handed it to Director Huang.

"Resign? Documents? When did this happen???" Upon hearing this, the other directors were all surprised. They had never heard of the news about Director Bi's resignation, and they couldn't help but look suspicious.

"Ah, what is this?!" But when Mr. Huang opened the document and read it carefully for a moment, he immediately showed a shocked expression, then looked at the other three people and handed the document over.

Seeing his expression, the other three people also hurried over, and soon, they all looked shocked and unbelievable...

The document reads:

"Because the company's director Bi Youlong was infiltrated by external forces, causing the company to suffer heavy losses, from today on, Bi Youlong will be removed from the position of director, expelled from the board of directors, and will never be allowed to join the company again!"

This is not resignation at all, this is clearly being fired, and fired by the superiors at that. There is not even a possibility of turning things around!

For a moment, Huang Boren was speechless. He looked at Mr. Zhao who had a calm face, and then looked at the other three people who were quietly moving away from him. The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he looked embarrassed.

"These three guys agreed to blame me together, but ended up using me as a tool. Now that I'm in trouble, they all stay out of it... Bah! What kind of people are they!"

After cursing in his heart, he could only think that he was unlucky. He immediately raised the corners of his mouth, smiled and said: "Oh, it turned out to be a misunderstanding. I'm sorry, Lao Zhao, don't forget it. I'm not targeting you. I was also worried about the company..."

"Haha, it's okay, I understand. Time is tight now, everyone please sit down." Without paying attention to Mr. Huang's behavior just now, Mr. Zhao smiled and waved his hand, then called a few people and asked them to take a seat quickly.

Just like that, a small storm was resolved, and several directors did not say anything more. When everyone sat down, the board meeting officially began!

……

"Well, let me explain the current situation..."

Next, Director Zhao quickly explained the situation of the incident and also sent several documents to the computers of the four directors to compare with his explanation.

When the explanation was finished, several directors were shocked again. They thought it was just a nationwide attack by aliens, but they didn't expect that it involved so many things!

"Divine Machine Hundred Refinements", "Self-cultivation Furnace", "Double-handed", "Soul Control", "Heavenly Master's Action" plus "The Company Has Been Infiltrated"...

Each of these things has a huge impact on the company and even the entire extraordinary world. If you take out any one of them, it will be a huge deal!

At this moment, all these turbulent factors were gathered together in the same event. They had never experienced such a situation since they became directors...

And from the fact that Director Bi was fired, they all understood that there was nothing wrong with Director Zhao's decision this time. It could even be said to be quite perfect and difficult to criticize!

At the same time, after reading the information in front of them, the four directors all fixed their eyes on the same name, which was - "Youfang"!

They all remembered that this was the young talent they had discussed before about bringing into the company, and the facts proved that their vision was indeed correct. This kid's ability... even they couldn't help but admire him!

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the situation. Now that it's clear, let's discuss it..." Seeing that the four people had digested it, Director Zhao narrowed his eyes and spoke again.

"Regarding the treatment of Ma Xianhong, Lü Huan, and the eight superior aptitudes, I have some ideas. You can listen and see if you have any opinions or suggestions."

Next, Mr. Zhao talked about the cooperation between the company and Ma Xianhong and Lu Huan. Many of the details were proposed by You Fang. From the first phone call between the two, when they reached a consensus, to the end of the matter, they had communicated more than once.

That’s right, on the night of his first phone call with Mr. Zhao, You Fang had already made “cooperation with Lao Ma” a condition for negotiations with the company. Of course, all this was done step by step and not overnight.

After listening to Director Zhao's proposal, the four directors fell silent. To be honest, they couldn't find any major problems with it, but due to their own standpoints, they had to jump out and oppose it...

However, in the past, Director Bi and Director Huang had always played such prominent roles. Now Director Bi was fired, and Director Huang had already offended Director Zhao once, so it was difficult for him to speak again. The other three could not help but look at each other and exchange glances.

"Of course……"

However, at this time, as if he had already anticipated what would happen, Director Zhao spoke again:

"Once this cooperation is established, it will be a joint project of all directors on the board. I, Zhao Fangxu, dare not take all the credit for it. Any results will be decided after joint consultation among us."

"At the same time, after the cooperation begins, any project they complete will receive a medal of honor. We can also report to the higher authorities based on the size of our respective contributions to ensure fairness and justice."

He knew very well what these old foxes would think, and this was the right medicine. Since this cooperation involved a lot of things and could not afford to fail, he simply put aside the disputes over other factors so that these guys could focus only on the cooperation itself.

As expected, as soon as he said this, the expressions of the other four people suddenly relaxed. They looked at each other, and after exchanging glances, they nodded.

"Haha, well, then please speak freely. If you have anything to add about the details of this cooperation, please speak up. Let's vote..."

After saying that, Mr. Zhao shut up and stopped talking. The other four also fell into deep thought and began to think about the details of the cooperation.

After a while...

The four directors spoke one by one, listing what they thought was appropriate and inappropriate, and also put forward suggestions for modification, and then began to vote.

The discussion lasted for more than three hours in total. It was not until after midnight that the meeting finally ended and the general framework of cooperation was basically completed.

In fact, the result discussed by the directors was not much different from what You Fang discussed with Director Zhao at the beginning. Basically, they gave the two people certain restrictions and also certain freedoms, and struck just the right balance.

The reason why the discussion took so long was that Mr. Zhao made some changes when explaining his proposal, some of which were even quite outrageous. This was able to attract the attention of the four people. It was a negotiation technique that allowed him to control the overall situation.

At this point, the matter finally had a satisfactory result. Director Zhao stretched his body and prepared to adjourn the meeting. He still had to negotiate with Ma Xianhong and continue to clean up the remaining mess, so he was quite busy.

But just when he was about to speak...

suddenly!

Beep beep!

His cell phone rang. He took it out and looked at it, his brows immediately frowned.

"Lü Ci?"

When Mr. Zhao saw the name on the caller ID, he suddenly felt a headache, but he knew that this day would come sooner or later, so he took a deep breath and pressed the call button.

"Hello! Zhao Fangxu, is my great-granddaughter there? Send her back to me immediately, do you hear me?" As expected, as soon as the call was connected, Lu Ci's irritable voice came from the other end, with a commanding tone, and it was obvious that there was no room for negotiation.

"..."

"Haha, Patriarch Lu, don't worry. Your great-granddaughter is indeed here with us, but..."

"But what but? She is also a victim, and was abducted by someone. Why is your company also locking up victims? Is this how you manage aliens?" Lu Ci was furious.

"No, that's not the reason. It's just because..."

"Okay, okay, don't argue with me. I'm telling you, either the company sends the person back to me immediately, or I have to go to the company in person to get him back. Do you understand?"

pat!

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone was hung up. Director Zhao couldn't help but sigh, with a bitter look on his face.

Since he was on speakerphone, the other four people also heard it. The entire conference room fell into silence again. A new round of meetings...

It started again.

Regarding Qu Tong's problem, she will not be resurrected, and there will be no legacy issues. This is just a foreshadowing, and there will be a result in a few chapters.

The next afternoon.

The four people of Youfang followed Mr. Lu to the Lu family in Hangzhou and temporarily lived in the Lu family’s big villa.

As soon as the four of them put down their luggage and settled down, they heard Mr. Lu's laughter coming from the living room: "Haha, that mad dog Lu Ci actually came to the company. This is very interesting."

"Ha ha……"

Hearing this, You Fang couldn't help but laugh. He knew very well that among the ten bosses, there were only three who dared to challenge the company directly: Mr. Lu, the old Taoist priest, and the other one... that was Lu Ci.

Among them, although Mr. Lu claimed to be "flawless throughout his life" and fair and just, he would not care about anything that involved the Trinity School. Even if the king of heaven came, he would still dare to confront him...

As for the old Taoist priest, his strength is there. He doesn't care what the company does to him. But if the company touches someone he cares about, he will definitely attack the company without hesitation, and it is not impossible for him to take direct action.

As for this old man Lu, it was obvious that it was because of his "mad dog"-like temperament that once he went crazy, no one could stop him...

Especially when it comes to the Lu family and the Lu family's secrets, he can do anything. This time, Lu Huan's affairs have obviously touched his bottom line and aroused his "crazy" nerve!

However, You Fang also knew that although the company looked gentle and did not dare to provoke the Ten Bosses for fear of causing trouble, in fact... this was all just on the surface.

Everyone is aware of the existence behind the company, so it is naturally impossible for them to be submissive and allow themselves to be bullied. When things touch the company's bottom line, that is, the bottom line of the superiors, the company's attitude will change drastically!

Of course, although Lu Ci is crazy, anyone with a discerning eye can see that his madness is not real madness, but a strategic means of gaining the upper hand in the negotiations.

Over the years, he has relied on this madness to win a lot of benefits for the Lu family. This time will naturally be no exception. Therefore, those imagined fighting scenes will most likely not appear, and both sides will quickly find a balance and reach a consensus.

A person who lives to be a hundred years old...

Who isn’t smart?

moment……

"You boy, what do you think about this? You should have expected this a long time ago, right?" When You Fang came to the living room, Mr. Lu asked this question immediately, looking like he was enjoying himself.

"Of course." You Fang did not hide it and nodded immediately. He then expressed all his ideas, which made Mr. Lu approve of it greatly.

"Haha, not bad, not bad. You can actually see the real purpose of this old madman. You... are almost becoming a smart guy!" Old Master Lu laughed.

In his opinion, this is definitely a good thing. When traveling around the world, the most important thing is to be "meticulous" and "good at dealing with people". Only in this way can one be like a fish in water and turn danger into safety in any situation.

At this moment……

"I see……"

Hong Bin and Fu Chen on the side suddenly realized and nodded slightly, as if thinking about something.

One of them is simple-minded and straightforward, while the other has been in seclusion for many years and does not care about worldly affairs. If it weren't for Youfang's analysis, I would have thought that the Lu family would have a big fight with the company.

As for Tang Yingjie, he naturally understood this aspect, so he just said nothing, lowered his head and held his mobile phone, flipping through it with his fingers.

On his mobile phone screen, there were photos of books containing the practice methods and refining contents of "Shen Ji Bai Lian", which made him obsessed for a while.

soon……

When everyone was sitting on the sofa resting and chatting for a while, there was a sound of a door opening suddenly from the other side. The security door opened quickly and two figures slowly approached:

"Grandpa, are you looking for us?"

"Haha, Linglong, Xiaolin, you are here? Come on, let's get to know each other!" Seeing the visitors, Mr. Lu immediately smiled and greeted them.

That’s right, the people who came in were Mr. Lu’s great-granddaughter and great-grandson - Lu Linglong and Lu Lin. When they were almost home, Mr. Lu notified them and asked them to go home.

As for You Fang's affairs, the two of them naturally already knew about them. Looking at the young man in front of them who was about the same age as them, they couldn't help but look him over.

"Hello, I'm You Fang." Seeing the two people coming over, You Fang stood up on his own initiative, smiled at them and introduced himself.

"Hello, my name is Lu Linglong."

"I am Lu Lin..."

The two of them responded immediately. They could both feel that this seemed to be a gentle guy who seemed easy to get along with.

"Hey, hello, my name is Hong Bin!"

"Hello, this is Qingyang Palace Fuchen!"

clap clap!

"Hmm? Oh, Tang Clan's Tang Yingjie."

Seeing that the three of them had gotten to know each other, Hong Bin and the other two naturally joined in the fun. The young people quickly got to know each other and started chatting.
