Chapter 178 Election (4th update, for the "Rose" brother, 10,000 rewards plus extra update)

In the next few days, the price of gold in the international market continued to fall.

Gradually, the news spread.

After all, it is not just the financial practitioners who play with gold these days. There are also many ordinary people. Many ordinary people buy gold jewelry, some for wearing, and some for collection.

Anyway, one thing is for sure: they are all waiting for gold to appreciate in value.

But at this time, the international gold price suddenly fell, and naturally many netizens paid attention to it.

Because this is related to one’s own interests!

Subsequently, news items appeared on the websites of major media outlets.

For a time, the momentum grew.

Gradually, many ordinary people panicked, fearing that the gold in their hands would depreciate.

So, they started selling off the gold of their mobile phones.

Many investors who held gold futures contracts also sold them.

For a time, the entire gold market was in turmoil.

More than 10 days passed in a flash, and it was August 26th.

On this day, Ling Zhou, wearing a well-fitting casual suit hand-cut by a court tailor, left the Yintan Villa with Chen Yiru and a group of bodyguards, got in the car, and headed towards the central financial and commercial district of Lanling Island.

Today is the day for the Far East Charity Foundation to elect its president.

After three months of operation, the Far East Charity Foundation is now growing in size and mobilizing more and more funds. Although it was established not long ago, it has already had a considerable influence throughout Asia.

Therefore, those who pay attention to this election of the president include not only people within the Yuanzhou Charity Foundation, but also many outsiders and some media personnel.

Now the outside world knows that the position of chairman of the Yuanzhou Charity Foundation will be officially established today.

The president will decide the future direction of the Yuanzhou Charity Foundation.

So, everyone is paying close attention.

After all, the Yuanzhou Charity Foundation belongs to Prince Lan Ling.

Lanling Island Central Financial and Commercial District.

Silver Orchid Building.

A convoy of luxury cars stopped in front of the building, attracting the attention of professionals entering and leaving the building.

In front of the building, a group of neatly dressed men and women came up quickly.

They are the people from Yuanzhou Charity Foundation.

Headed by three vice presidents: Shao An, Li Anna and Li Yuan.

At this time, a group of media personnel with cameras and long guns rushed over. They stepped forward and surrounded the convoy.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the building guessed that Prince Lan Ling had arrived. Looking at the reporters around them, they all realized that today was the day for the election of the president of Yuanzhou Charity Foundation.

It was the day for the election of the chief executive of the first charity organization under Ling Zhou's name, so Ling Zhou naturally had to come.

"Good morning, Your Highness."

Shao An, Li Anna and Li Yuan took the lead in greeting.

"Well! Let's go up."

Ling Zhou glanced around lazily.

At this time, bodyguards had already stopped the media reporters.

"yes."

Li Anna and the other two nodded in response and made way for Ling Zhou to go first.

Ling Zhou was not polite either. He raised his head and walked into the building with a group of people.

Watching Ling Zhou and others leave, the working men and women in front of the building started talking.

Even the journalists who were stopped outside the building by security guards started talking about it.

"I don't know who will be the president of the Yuanzhou Charity Foundation."

"I think Ms. Anna Li is more likely. A month ago, the charity gala hosted by Ms. Anna Li was very beautiful. That charity gala raised a total of 20 million US dollars in charity funds!"

"I feel that Vice President Li Yuan has a greater chance of winning the election. In the past two months, Mr. Li Yuan has provided the best help to poor children in various places!"

"Mr. Shao An is also great! He has done a great job in charity activities in various regions."

While everyone outside the building was discussing, Ling Zhou and others had already arrived at the 62nd floor of the building, the headquarters of the Yuanzhou Charity Foundation.

The 62nd floor of the building is the headquarters of Yuanzhou Foundation.

There are obviously more people at the headquarters today than the last time Lingzhou came.

In the large conference room.

Ling Zhou sat in the first seat, and Chen Yiru sat to his right. The three vice presidents, Li Yuan, Shao An, and Li Anna, sat in order. Below them were the leaders of each department.

“Have all the votes been collected?”

Ling Zhou said to Chen Yiru.

Regarding this election and the collection of votes, in order to ensure fairness and justice, Ling Zhou did not let the three vice presidents or other senior executives be responsible, but instead let the acting president Chen Yiru be in charge.

Chen Yiru seldom came here, and she had no friendship with the three vice presidents. She was loyal to Lingzhou, so the three vice presidents, other senior executives, including middle and lower-level executives, and ordinary employees were all very relieved.

"Votes from all regions are still being collected and it is estimated to take another 30 minutes."

Chen Yiru said.

In this election for the president, those who are eligible to vote are not only those in the foundation headquarters, but also those in offices across Asia. Anyone who is a formal member of the Far East Charity Foundation is eligible to vote.

Today, there are nearly a thousand official members of the Yuanzhou Charity Foundation.

Regarding the collection of votes, it started at 9 a.m. It is currently 10 a.m., which means that the results will not be known until 10:30 a.m.

The whole process takes 1 hour and 30 minutes.

"Well, wait."

Ling Zhou said lazily, then he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

Seeing this, everyone present felt uneasy and nervous.

They have no say in this election.

During this period, Ling Zhou issued strict orders prohibiting them from colluding with middle and low-level leaders in private, buying votes, and conducting operations that violate the rules, etc.

Therefore, in this election, these senior officials have no advantages at all, and it all depends on personal charm.

See which of them is more popular.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the conference room became increasingly tense.

Especially the three vice presidents, they were the most nervous.

Because other senior executives also understand that their chances of winning the election are very small and almost impossible, so they are not nervous.

But there are three vice presidents, and any three of them could be elected, so things get even more tense.

As time went by, the atmosphere became increasingly solemn, as if the air was about to freeze.

Except for Ling Zhou and Chen Yiru, everyone else in the audience, even those who thought they could not win the election, could not relax at this time.

The scene was silent, and at this moment...

Ding-a-ling…

A cell phone rang, and everyone was startled and looked towards Chen Yiru.

"Your Highness, the votes have been collected and are currently being counted."

Chen Yiru glanced at his phone and said.
