Chapter 6 — Chess Game Grandfather's Will

The group has invested nearly 200,000,000 yuan in it. Invite leading domestic and foreign experts. Everything has reached the most important stage. There is only one final step away from success. If successful. It will completely change the technological landscape of the entire industry. Giving Khuong Thi an absolute leading position in the next ten, even twenty years. They want to cancel this project?

“What is the reason?”

My voice turned cold.

“They said the investment project was too big.”

“The capital recovery cycle is too long.”

“Serious impact on the company's cash flow and profits this year.”

Ms. Tran's voice was full of contempt.

“They think that if they want to complete the betting agreement, they must cut all unnecessary expenses.”

“Money must be used in the right place.”

I leaned back in the chair.

“So where do they think it's worth spending money...?”

Ms. Tran's face became even more unsightly.

“Wang Hao announced that the group will invest 80,000,000 yuan to exclusively sponsor the Royal Pinnacle e-sports tournament.”

“At the same time, signed a contract with the championship team Lieh Hoa to be the global brand representative for the corporation.”

I almost burst out laughing. Royal Pinnacle. Liet Hoa team. That is the game that Vuong Hao loves the most. It's also the team he idolizes the most. A corporation specializing in precision manufacturing and industrial materials. The main customers are businesses. So why would you hire an e-sports team with most of the fans from their twenties to twenty-somethings to be brand representatives? That's no longer using money in the right place anymore. It's holding a dragon-slaying sword... To cut your nails. So stupid that people don't know whether to cry or laugh.

“What else do they do?”

“They announced the dismissal of Professor Chu from the position of Technical Director.”

“The reason is conservative ideology, which hinders corporate reform.”

“Wang Jianjun appointed a distant cousin of his.”

“A recent college graduate.”

“To take Professor Zhou's place.”

Professor Chu. It was the gray-haired scholar who came to the meeting yesterday. He is the main person in charge of the new materials project. Also an old classmate of my grandfather. Really good. They don't just want to destroy. But I also want to uproot it.

“Has the notice been sent yet?”

“It's been sent.”

“In the name of the Office of the President.”

“The email was sent to the entire company.”

Ms. Tran looked at me. Eyes full of worry.

“Advisor Khuong.”

“They are destroying the foundation of the corporation.”

“What should we do?”

I stood up. Walk to the window. In addition to the garden below. Several young men wearing Lieh Hoa team uniforms are being led by Vuong Hao to tour the company. Laughing loudly. It was like a bunch of wild monkeys had just burst into a china shop.

“What should I do?”

I turned my head to look at Ms. Tran.

“Very simple.”

“Tell the finance department to prepare all detailed reports on the amount of capital invested in the new materials project.”

“Along with expected earnings reports for the next three years and market outlook analysis.”

“Tell the marketing department to prepare a comparison report.”

“Comparing the viewer profile of that e-sports tournament.”

“The commercial value of the Lieh Hoa team.”

“And a realistic customer profile of our group.”

"Besides."

“Go investigate for me.”

“The distant cousin that Vuong Kien Quan just appointed to study What major in college?

“Finally…”

My voice became calm.

“Prepare for me the company's largest meeting room.”

“Ten o'clock tomorrow morning.”

“I will organize a Strategic Risk Assessment meeting for the Group's major decisions.”

“Notify all leaders at director level and above.”

“Including the new Executive Chairman.”

“Participation is required.”

Ms. Tran's eyes immediately lit up. She understood what I wanted to do. She turned around and left quickly. I sat back in front of my desk. On the table there is still a photo taken between me and my grandfather. He smiled brightly like a child. Have you seen it? The problem you left behind... It's simpler than I thought. Because those people... Don't even bother to hide their stupidity. Ten o'clock the next morning. The group's largest multimedia meeting room was packed with people. This is the first time since Wang Hao took office that all senior leaders are truly gathered. Vuong Hao and his parents sat in the center. He was wearing a brand new branded suit. The hair is glossy and gelled. Trying to appear arrogant. But still couldn't hide the guilt in his eyes. Khuong Man sat next to him. The look of satisfaction on his face was like that of a queen regent. Vuong Kien Quan sat on the other side. Hand supporting golden glasses frame. Looks like a military strategist plotting a plan. The "smart people" who didn't come to my meeting yesterday were all present today. They sat around Vuong Kien Quan. Everyone had a pleasing smile on their faces. And the senators who came to see me yesterday sat on the opposite side. Serious face. Don't say a word. When Ms. Tran and I walked in. The entire meeting room immediately fell silent. All eyes were focused on me. Have fun waiting to see a funny drama. I don't pay attention to anyone. Just go straight to your location. Chair for Strategic Advisor. Then calmly sit down.
