The tallest commercial building in Jiangcheng is the headquarters of the BD Group, one of the world-famous seven top conglomerates.
Almost all the elites of China are gathered there. Almost all the traders, investors, entrepreneurs, etc. on the list are affiliated with the BD consortium, or have worked in the BD consortium. It can be said that for countless people, being able to enter the BD consortium is their greatest dream.
And now, at this moment, on the top floor of this big building, more than a dozen top executives of the BD consortium headquarters are sitting in the conference room with tense nerves. The faces that once talked freely in well-known magazines, newspapers, and financial websites are now as if facing a great enemy. They sit upright and look extremely nervously at the black-haired man who is now sitting in the chairman's seat.
A black-haired man who seemed nonchalant in every move, but whose every action carried a strong aura.
Obviously, that face looked extremely young and handsome, as if every feature was carefully carved, but they dared not look directly at it. Just sitting there without saying anything, the aura emanating from the other party was enough to make them almost breathless.
The black-haired man in front of him was none other than the latest heir of BD Group, as well as the chairman and general manager of BD Group, He Long.
Thirty years have passed since the last appearance of the chairman of the BD Foundation. Yes, you heard correctly. As one of the world's seven largest conglomerates, the BD Foundation's chairman rarely takes charge of affairs, even appearing only once every thirty years. Perhaps due to his exceptionally strong genes, each generation of BD Foundation chairman looks almost identical, sharing the same name: He Long. The elders of the BD Foundation can attest to this.
But this is not the point. The point is that there is a saying circulating in the BD consortium: their chairman either does not show up, or when he shows up, it means that the BD consortium will face a major reshuffle and go further.
According to the BD Group's corporate yearbook, every thirty years or so, there would be a major change in the BD Group's management, a major reshuffle and upheaval within the company. At the same time, the BD Group's stock price and economic profits would take a significant leap forward. This was the legend of the BD Group's chairman, a legend kept secret within the group. And now, exactly thirty years had passed since their chairman's last appearance.
As the sound of flipping documents stopped, everyone's nerves were stretched to the limit. The next moment, their young chairman raised his head and began casually, "Compared to the past thirty years, the wealth you've created has decreased by 10%, and you've created quite a lot of fancy, useless stuff. So, let's sort it out. The first group of people whose names I'll call out will pack up and leave today. The second group of people whose names I'll call out will take the vacant manager positions. Wen Jianhua, Zhang Sanming, Ye Wei..."
As the names were read out one after another, many people's faces turned pale instantly. The reason was nothing else but that half of those names were the BD senior executives present, and many of them were senior employees. As the second batch of names were read out, many people were shocked. The names of the second batch of people were not divided by position or qualifications. Some were even ordinary employees who had only worked in the BD consortium for one or two years, but they were suddenly promoted to senior management positions!
In less than half an hour, the BD Group's headquarters was completely turned upside down. The entire BD Group was in a state of panic, and even after the meeting, they still hadn't fully reacted. However, their young and handsome chairman's expression remained unchanged, as if this was something he was used to. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he called out to the most senior man on the scene:
"By the way, Lao Zhan, you're doing pretty well in the entertainment field. I saw a show a while ago that was pretty good. It wasn't about stepping on ants, but watching ants fight each other was quite interesting. But it seems a bit boring lately. How about you give it a try?"
The man called Lao Zhan was stunned. In that moment, he seemed to see the chairman of the consortium from thirty years ago. Although the ages were different and did not match at all, it was as if Lao Zhan had seen the old chairman from thirty years ago. And that program was none other than one of the most popular variety shows on Tomato Channel, "Outdoor Chef Competition".
Although the show has only become popular in recent years, and its name and format have changed several times, the original plan for its establishment was indeed nearly 30 years ago, shortly after he met the chairman. It seems that both the old chairman and the current young chairman have the same hobbies.
Thinking of this, Lao Zhan couldn't help but smile, nodded respectfully to their young chairman, and said, "Of course, you will live up to everyone's expectations."
But this sentence made the entire "Wild Cooking Competition" program team crazy. They racked their brains to think of some "non-boring" solutions, but they were so busy that they were about to collapse and cry.
Actually, although "God of Cooking" became popular due to the stars' quarrels and fights, these quarrels and fights do not happen often. Moreover, as the show becomes more and more popular, the nature of "God of Cooking" has actually transformed into a larger and more harmonious program. This is the transformation direction planned by their program team.
And now, with the words "boring and uninteresting" coming down from above, they are suddenly brought back to their original state. How can they not collapse?
"Boss, what should we do? The next few episodes we've scheduled are all crews promoting new dramas. How could there be any discord among those crews? For the sake of the new drama, even if there's discord, we have to have it..."
"Wait, wait, if I think about it this way, I actually remembered something. Wasn't the female lead for Director Wu's new drama originally confirmed to be Lin Long? Now, because of Lin Long's bad character, she's been removed from the original cast."
"I know about this, too. Our official Weibo account has been @ed every day these past few days, practically hyped up by Lin Long's haters. I don't know, but knowing it doesn't help much. Even if Lin Long is a bad person, she wouldn't have any friction with Director Wu's cast. Even if we invite her, it wouldn't spark any strong sparks. That's why we've been holding off on this and are still considering..."
"I originally thought so, but I received some new news this morning. The new female lead for Director Wu's new drama has been chosen. I heard that the actress who played the second female lead recommended her, and Director Wu thought she was good, so he decided on her. Can you guess who it is? That person is none other than... Lin Zhu'er, the 'real' daughter of the wealthy Lin family!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire program crew suddenly stopped for a few seconds, and in the next second, the program crew members who suddenly realized what these words meant cheered excitedly. Their chief director stood up with a bang, and shouted for people to contact Lin Long quickly and invite her over, and at the same time contact Director Wu to advance the program shooting!
In order to make the show exciting enough, both sides have to conceal the fact that the female lead has been replaced by Lin Zhuer, or that Lin Long will continue to be invited to participate in the show, etc.
Therefore, not long after, Chu Qi and Lin Long received invitations from the program team. Of course, Lin Long, who thought that he was short of gold recently, oh no, short of money, would undoubtedly accept the invitation from the program team.
Even though she knew very well what the production crew might be targeting, such as her so-called "black spots", Lin Long did not feel afraid. She even felt a faint excitement for the opportunity to be there to "step on ants". This was even before she knew that the heroine of Director Wu's new drama had been replaced by Lin Zhuer.
At the same time, He Long, the young chairman who had just returned to the BD Group headquarters for less than a day and had already caused a stir in the entire BD Group, felt a little bored not long after. If he hadn't woken up and felt that he had earned a little less gold this time, he would probably still be counting gold. Although counting gold would be boring if he counted too much, it was at least much more interesting than now. He was not like that guy named Jinmao who had the energy to mess around outside and not even sleep.
It was too early to speak. At this moment, He Long's personal mobile phone rang. It was a video call request. He Long knew without thinking too much who the guy was who could come to harass him so punctually on the day he woke up.
Sure enough, the moment the video call was connected, a dazzlingly handsome face appeared on the other side of the screen, especially the golden hair, which was so bright that it was almost blinding. Who else could it be but the guy with golden hair? And in his arms, he was holding a girl with black hair and black eyes, as pure as a little white rabbit.
The girl was good-looking, although not as pretty as the blond man holding her from behind. She seemed a little shy to be held in his arms for a video call. Her face flushed red as she leaned nervously against his chest. After a while, she shyly greeted He Long, "Hello, Mr. He from the BD Group. I'm Wenwen..."
Zhang Wenwen said this shyly, but she couldn't help but feel excited in her heart. The handsome black-haired man opposite her was actually He Long, the chairman of BD Group!
The blond man hugging her from behind was Will, the new chairman of GD Foundation, another of the world's top seven conglomerates! The two men before her were both top-tier in terms of both wealth and power. How could she not be excited?
What the woman said was true. As long as she showed up at a certain time and did certain things, she would be able to attract Will's attention and replace the most important person in Will's heart as his true love. She did as she said, and it really worked! In the past month or two, Will had taken her with him, otherwise she would leave him!
Zhang Wenwen felt extremely happy. She had never expected that Will could actually know the chairman of the BD consortium! Another handsome man who was no less handsome than Will!
Then can she also become the most important person to the handsome black-haired man opposite? The woman had let it slip before that the most important person in the chairman of the BD Foundation's heart is a bit similar to the most important person in Will's heart. So can she also occupy the most important position in the heart of the black-haired man opposite, just like she does now?
Zhang Wenwen's mind became active as she thought about this, but she never expected that the black-haired man opposite her would glance at her and then not look at her again. He just casually uttered a few syllables to Will, "High-end fake."
"Hey, Dahei, you're still so boring. Wenwen's nose, mouth, and hair are so beautiful, but you don't know how to appreciate them. You're actually envious of me."
Will didn't care at all when He Long uttered the word "high-end fake". Instead, he showed it off to He Long, thinking that the black-haired man opposite him must be jealous of him for finding such a similar one. In order to show off to the black-haired man as much as possible, Will has decided to fly to China in the next two days and show off in front of the black-haired man.
He called today for no reason other than this matter.
And He Long, after hearing what Will said, did not react much. He just gave the other party a look as if he was looking at a fool. The next moment, he hung up the phone without mercy and put the other party on the blacklist.
