Chapter 1485: Chapter 1296: My thoughts, you actually understand!

Under the suggestions of Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu, Bai Xiaosheng finally brought the topic back to the “right track”.

This means, based on the issues and risks caused by Shen Peishen, there will be a thorough investigation and cleansing!

“Here, I’d like to first explain something to everyone.” Before officially starting, Bai Xiaosheng again scanned the crowd and opened slowly, “During Shen Peishen’s tenure, he implemented numerous policies and measures, but I will not fully deny or overturn them.”

“We must adhere to the principles of objectivity and fairness. What deserves recognition must be recognized, and what needs correction will not be tolerated! This time, we will employ a voting method to approve or reject topics. I, Bai Xiaosheng, will certainly not engage in one-man rule, including the implementation of newly added systems after rectification!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s words made everyone nod one after another, showing approval.

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu exchanged a secret glance, each with a hint of a cold smile in their eyes.

The kid named Bai, as expected, is going to use voting as a means of operation.

Within the framework of the rules, they are not afraid of any Chief Executive Officer!

Bai Xiaosheng paused in his speech, straightened his back, and scanned the crowd sharply yet seriously, “I must also say, this correction might involve some executives from my Greater China Region. Perhaps… even some of you present!”

At this point, Bai Xiaosheng’s voice turned noticeably cold.

Those who met Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes felt an instant sense of awe.

Bai Xiaosheng continued, “Implementing new systems and measures to correct these problems will also require everyone’s full cooperation. Once approved by everyone’s vote, the minority must obey the majority, and it must be carried out. It’s equivalent to the responsibility commitment you silently make with me here. Everyone, you cannot slack off!”

“Otherwise…” Bai Xiaosheng paused, his voice cold and devoid of emotion, “don’t blame me, Bai Xiaosheng, for not being accommodating!”

With that, a glimmer of icy sharpness flashed in Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes, captivating and daunting.

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu happened to look over and were momentarily chilled by that sharp gleam, involuntarily giving rise to some fear.

This kid, with such a gaze, looks like a wolf cub!

Is he planning to devour people?!

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu felt almost the same sense of dread at the same time.

In theory, at their age and cultivation, they should never be intimidated by the words or gaze of a youngster.

Even though the other party is the Chief Executive Officer of the Greater China Region and their immediate superior.

But those few words and a single gaze from Bai Xiaosheng instantly broke through the years of composure of Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu.

Even while facing Xiahou Qi or Shen Peishen, they had never felt such apprehension!

Perhaps it’s because this Bai Xiaosheng is too young?!

His sharpness is unhidden, and upon suddenly rising to a high position, his operation will likely disregard the “big picture” and act without reservation!

Such a scenario would never occur with Xiahou Qi or Shen Peishen!

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu thought their bad feeling was due to this reason.

Obviously, they hadn’t truly realized the fearsome aspect of Bai Xiaosheng.

The other Senior Affairs Officers present all held their breath slightly and nodded involuntarily, indicating agreement with Bai Xiaosheng’s words.

Among them, Han Richeng’s face turned pale, unable to stop swallowing, his mind in turmoil as he “understood”—

What Bai Xiaosheng spoke of, the executives that might be involved, were none other than those present, implying him!

Truly, they were going to make an example of him!

Han Richeng’s heart trembled, coldness rising from his coccyx up to his occiput, his entire back tingling, unbearably uncomfortable.

The ancients said, “as if sitting on pins and needles”, and this is probably the feeling!

“However, I do recognize the abilities of everyone present, each and every one of you!” Bai Xiaosheng’s voice softened a bit, and he smiled at everyone.

Bai Xiaosheng’s previously gloomy and intense aura dissipated quickly, like summer clouds after a rain.

“Perhaps in the past, those present were forced by Shen Peishen’s threats to do things against their will, but I personally feel that it might be forgivable. As long as everyone aligns with the group in the future, showing the appropriate attitude, I promise everyone will have better treatment, better development space, even if this adjustment might temporarily affect your power and benefits, there will be corresponding compensation.” Bai Xiaosheng’s smile grew warmer, “Alright, the unpleasant things I had to say are done. Now, let’s talk business.”

As if to lighten the atmosphere, Bai Xiaosheng offered a slight smile to everyone.

During this time, he gave Han Richeng a deep, subtle gaze.

This glance, unnoticed by others, was quickly spotted by Han Richeng, and his heart suddenly realized, like “breaking through a silver bottle, iron riders clashing with swords and guns”, awakening him like a drowning man grabbing at the last straw.

Han Richeng truly felt as though that one look saved him.

“Bai Xiaosheng… he’s hinting that siding with him can save me from this disaster!” Han Richeng understood instantly.

Connecting Bai Xiaosheng’s previous words, he became increasingly convinced!

Han Richeng was very skilled at guessing his superiors’ intentions, and with Bai Xiaosheng’s “obvious” hint, if he still didn’t understand, he’d be a fool and couldn’t blame anyone for his downfall!

“Mr. Bai speaks the absolute truth!” Han Richeng immediately made a decisive statement, taking the lead to speak up, passionately, “As Senior Affairs Officers, we are duty-bound to cooperate fully with Mr. Bai’s rectification. We are committed to aligning with the group!”

In his words, “align with the group” was also an indication to Bai Xiaosheng—

He understood!

When Han Richeng expressed his stance, everyone only glanced at him with no surprise.

After all, this person was always like this, adept at flattering, having already shown it more than once yesterday, so why be surprised by today’s “passionate speech”.

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu even secretly curled their lips, increasingly displeased with Han Richeng.

“This Han Richeng, speaking so nicely now, let’s see how he can happily echo maintaining alignment if Bai actually makes an example of him, or strips his power, or takes away his benefits?” Shang Dadong’s eyes reflected a hint of mockery.

“We didn’t interact with this person before because his behavior is too fickle, worse than a fence-sitter. But from what we’ve learned these days, he’s just a petty man who favors profit! He’s cheering loudly now, but who knows, he might switch to our side later!” Zhao Xinyu also thought to himself.

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu are shrewd and cunning old hands, but due to entrenched positions over the years, their sense of crisis had already dulled, only regarding Han Richeng as a sycophant who likes to curry favor with superiors, not realizing Bai Xiaosheng had silently completed his intimidation of Han Richeng, and the latter had already “come over”.

Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu still thought Han Richeng might stand with them.

Throughout, Xiahou Qi, sitting beside Bai Xiaosheng, was actually paying close attention to Han Richeng’s expressions and changes.

From the start to his eventual transition, all his reactions were observed by Xiahou Qi.

Seeing this, a smile appeared in Xiahou Qi’s eyes.

Success!

Bai Xiaosheng, this prodigy, was indeed correct!

This Han Richeng is already “one of us”!

“Next, let’s discuss the first area to be rectified,” Bai Xiaosheng spoke again.

“‘Regarding Zhenbei Group’s Greater China Region Affairs Department’s Affairs Officers and Assistants Management System’!”
