Zhou Xuan’s cold tone revealed a hint of doubt. “As for the Gao Corporation’s fraud case, it’s even more ridiculous. How are you going to deal with something that the entire country knows? How are you going to get past the pressure of public opinion alone?”
“I really don’t have a choice, President Zhou. I’m just a small person in charge of carrying out the orders of the higher-ups. Usually, 1’11 definitely follow your instructions, but this time…” There was a hint of hesitation in Chief Wang’s words. After reorganizing himself, he said again, “But this time, the Gao family’s matter involves too many things. It even concerns the entire country.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xuan immediately guessed the other party’s identity. Only the Yang family had the ability to mobilize such a huge force and cause an impact on the entire country in the central city of the Federation.
“Tell me in detail. What happened?” Zhou Xuan’s tone instantly became very serious. “Let me see what the famous Yang family overseas has up their sleeves. Do they really want to call the shots in Federal City?”
“I don’t know if the Yang family you’re talking about is the mastermind behind this, but none of the people who called me are low-ranking officials. In fact, we can’t even see the figures of these officials in our daily lives.”
Chief Wang told Zhou Xuan the whole story. “It was me who received a call and was told that I had to absolve Gao Hua and the Gao Corporation of their crimes. I can never pursue it. If I go against his wishes…”
“What will happen? What tragic end?”
Zhou Xuan’s words were filled with disdain. After so many years of struggling, he had relied on himself to support the Zhou Corporation. Naturally, he would not be frightened. No one in the central city of the Federation could threaten Zhou Xuan like this.
“There won’t be a tragic outcome. No matter how bold they are, they’re not bold enough to hurt someone’s life.”
Chief Wang swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and calmed down a little. “However, if we don’t follow the instructions, the price of goods sold in the entire overseas market to the Federation’s Central City will increase. At that time, the prices of many goods in the city will soar. Once it affects the lives of the commoners, the pressure of public opinion will be the most terrifying.”
“You’re right. The Gao family’s incident didn’t happen to them. No matter how much discussion there is, it will only stop at the identity of a bystander. As time passes, people will slowly forget about this.”
Zhou Xuan remained as calm as ever, his thoughts very clear. “But once some things happen to the masses, especially when it’s a life problem, this momentum will be difficult to control.”
“President Zhou, what should I do…” Chief Wang was in a dilemma. Zhou Xuan was in front, and the citizens of the Federation City were behind him. “It’s just that this matter is too difficult to choose, so I came to ask for your opinion.”
Zhou Xuan was extremely dissatisfied with the Gao family’s actions, not to mention that Shan Yue had suffered grievances. He would definitely not give in under normal circumstances.
However, at this moment, he had no choice but to hesitate. As the boss of the number one company in the Federation’s Central City, he had to consider the overall situation no matter what. If he lost the hearts of the people, the city would really be finished.
“Just do as the other party says. I’ll think of something else.” Zhou Xuan, who was on the other side of the phone, was clearly giving off an aggressive gaze. He stared intently out of the window. “I really want to see what kind of bloodbath the Yang Corporation can cause. There are countless people who want to replace me, but none of them are not running away dejectedly.”
“Understood, President Zhou. Since you’ve spoken, 1’11 do as you say.”
After hanging up, Zhou Xuan began to think. According to the current situation, the Yang family had already waited for a suitable opportunity. They were only one step away from entering the Federation City.
Once the Yang family gained a foothold in the city, with its original reputation overseas and the Gao family’s foundation, as long as they used some marketing methods, they could quickly develop a world of their own in the Federation’s Central City..
