Xu Wan previously thought that Jiang Tingzhou was already very capable as the deputy director of the legal department of Tianwei Group.

But when she learned that he was Jiang Xuanzhou, she felt that the position was somewhat beneath his talent compared to his status.

"You... are actually the head of the legal department at Tianwei Group, right?"

Xu Wan asked tentatively.

Jiang Tingzhou shook his head, "It's a bit higher than this position."

Xu Wan didn't press Jiang Tingzhou about his position, but instead asked, "When do you plan to come to our law firm? We have a little fan of yours who dreams of meeting you."

"Is it Pei Zhao?" Jiang Tingzhou asked.

Xu Wan nodded.

Jiang Tingzhou took the woman's hand and they went down the elevator together. After making sure she was steady, he said, "I'm a bit busy this week, but I'll go next week if I have time."

-

Tuesday morning.

Jiang Tingzhou arrived at the company early and called several senior executives in charge of investment to wait together in the conference room.

Seeing this impressive display, the executives dared not be careless.

Some people were whispering among themselves—

"Who's here today? Why is everyone here?"

"If even President Jiang can come in person, it must be some kind of dark horse project."

"What's the budget all about?"

"General Manager Jiang said we would discuss it together, but he didn't go into details."

After a discussion, the executives all agreed that a business genius would arrive today, bringing a truly remarkable project.

No one dared to let their guard down.

Just as it was 10 o'clock, the meeting room door opened.

Zhou Kun, dressed in a black suit, came in carrying a laptop.

Some people present knew Zhou Kun; some had talked to him about investment projects before, while others had learned about him from a recent live broadcast.

Everyone was stunned when they saw him walk in.

Jiang Tingzhou stood up and introduced to the group of executives: "This is Zhou Kun, President Zhou. He will be here today with his project, hoping to get investment from Tianwei. After President Zhou finishes speaking, everyone can speak. I want to make it clear in advance that for this project proposed by President Zhou, as long as it is good enough, there is no upper limit on the budget."

Although the executives had their own set of tactics for saying these things in private, it was still hard for them to suppress their surprise when Jiang Tingzhou said them himself.

Tianwei Group's investment projects are always handed over to Jiang Tingzhou as the last step.

No project has ever said that there is no upper limit to the budget.

There are only two possibilities for what he said.

Either they are very optimistic about the project brought by this person.

Or they are very pessimistic about it.

When the senior executives saw that the person who came in was Zhou Kun, they generally assumed it was the latter.

The higher you're lifted up, the harder you'll fall.

Zhou Kun seemed unaware of this as he opened his laptop and connected it to the screen.

Before starting his speech, Jiang Tingzhou said, "We have limited time, and you only have 30 minutes."

"Thirty minutes? I..."

"The timer has started."

Jiang Tingzhou reminded him.

Zhou Kun glared fiercely at Jiang Tingzhou, but dared not retaliate, and could only begin his speech.

He has always been arrogant, believing that the project he proposed was something no one had thought of before and had a very promising future.

Thirty minutes passed quickly.

Judging from the number of slides in the PPT, Zhou Kun's presentation should be nearing its end.

Jiang Tingzhou did not interrupt him.

It took Zhou Kun thirty-seven minutes to finish.

After a two-minute silence from the surrounding executives, someone finally said, "Similar projects were mentioned about four years ago, but we rejected them at the time and didn't report them to President Jiang. Later, others tried them, but they failed."

"Yes, and that project was more ingenious back then."

Several executives discussed the project directly below.

To put it bluntly, it's a project that has already been proven to be unworkable.

Zhou Kun's face turned ashen.

Jiang Tingzhou had already wasted an hour with Zhou Kun; he didn't have time to listen to the executives' discussion and went straight to the conclusion: "Let's get to the point, what do you all think?"

The executives exchanged bewildered glances. Finally, the vice president in charge of investment stood up and said, "President Jiang, this project was proven unfeasible four years ago. We cannot invest in it."

Jiang Tingzhou also stood up from his chair and said to the vice president, "Find out the specific analysis data from that time and explain it to him. Once you understand it, let him go."

After he finished speaking, he left the meeting room directly.

Zhou Kun's expression remained unchanged, but his hands, which were hanging down, were clenched into fists.
