Chapter 275 - 273 Company Meeting (5th Update)
The meeting room of Bai’s Group was on the twenty-sixth floor, fully transformed into a large conference room resembling a school auditorium, with a lecture podium at the front lined with red carpet, which appeared to be regularly cleaned. Below the podium were rows of removable chairs, and the walls around were adorned with three-dimensional heroes. It seemed that this conference room was multi-functional, serving not only for meetings but also suitable for any corporate events or annual galas.
By the time Lu Tianxing arrived at the meeting room, it was already filled with quite a few people, all of them managers and assistant managers from various departments of Bai’s Group. His presence as a mere assistant felt decidedly minor, like the smallest sesame official of the seventh rank.
Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, everyone instinctively looked towards Lu Tianxing. When they saw who it was, everyone was momentarily taken aback. This was a meeting for the company’s mid-to-senior-level executives, and it was surprising for Lu Tianxing, just an assistant, to appear here.
However, remembering the rumors about Lu Tianxing in the company, they all shut their mouths. They were unclear about Lu Tianxing’s background, but he had just been taken away by the police yesterday and emerged unscathed today. No one would believe that he lacked powerful connections. Those seated at the high echelons of Bai’s Group were all shrewd individuals; it was unnecessary to offend someone with an uncertain background just for the sake of temporary verbal advantage.
Lu Tianxing found a secluded spot to sit down. Before long, Bai Zhiqing walked in, flanked by Lin Qianru, Xue Man, Vice President Lin Yao, and several other executives. Her icy gaze swept around the room, briefly passing over Lu Tianxing in the corner without lingering, as if she had seen a stranger.
Seeing Bai Zhiqing at that moment, Lu Tianxing was slightly startled. She was nothing like the Bai Zhiqing he had previously met. She was cool, noble, and untouchable, blending in with her surroundings as if embodying an aura of a powerful woman, which made people feel oppressive and uncomfortable, even breathless.
At that moment, the entire conference room was silent, all eyes on Bai Zhiqing, awaiting her to speak.
After arriving at the podium, Bai Zhiqing got straight to the point without any preamble.
"I believe everyone is aware that our company’s current strategic goal is the development of Tianhe Resort. However, due to various reasons, the bidding for the development originally scheduled two months from now has suddenly been advanced to half a month later. I’d like to hear your opinions on this matter," she said.
