Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2862 - 2005: The Year’s End Approaches
Previously on Inheritance of Two Trillion...
Bai Xiaosheng and Wen Yan joined forces, and the first wave of attacks launched on Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline quietly concluded without a trace, closing cleanly and swiftly.
All employees in the key segments of the monitoring department involved in this matter were later relocated from Oceania to various parts of the world under Wen Yan’s deployment, becoming difficult to trace.
In this attack, Bai Xiaosheng and Wen Yan didn’t confront Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline aggressively, nor did they initiate a formal investigation against them from the group headquarters.
However, the significance of this event is nonetheless extraordinary.
Firstly, it impacted the businesses of Vice Chairman Morgan and the Caroline family, compelling the companies secretly misappropriating group assets to hastily change their paths and transform.
This also created opportunities for further investigations.
Bai Xiaosheng and Wen Yan had long planned meticulously and monitored those companies closely; once they made a "move," flaws and loopholes could be found.
Although alarming them might cause caution and dormancy in the short term, if a long period of calm persists, they will eventually extend their reach toward the group’s industries again.
Greed is something that is hard to rid of.
Secondly, a rift has emerged between Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline due to conflicts of interest, and this split, although initially not intense, will only grow larger.
This will become a trigger for their downfall.
Thirdly, with Wen Yan’s encouragement, Bai Xiaosheng’s reputation has skyrocketed.
This time, Bai Xiaosheng discerned issues within the Ice Spring Valley Company and Golun International under the group, gained substantial evidence in a very short time, withstood the pressure from Vice Chairman Morgan and Mrs. Margery, and handled the situation decisively and flawlessly.
Whenever group headquarters personnel mentioned it, they praised it with thumbs up without exception.
In addition to this, Bai Xiaosheng was also tirelessly running around on all sides, solving one problem and crisis after another for the Sixth Business Division.
Wherever he went, he enjoyed victory after victory.
With these achievements, Bai Xiaosheng has become a legend in the group, overshadowing other business presidents.
While previously Bai Xiaosheng preferred to keep a low profile, now he enjoys it very much.
After all, to aspire to the position of vice chairman, having the appointment alone is far from enough, broad recognition is also required.
Reputation, this seemingly intangible existence, can indeed be advantageous at times.
Apart from these three points, the benefits Bai Xiaosheng received from this turmoil are far more than these.
For instance, the higher-level recognition from several group veterans like Lu Cheng’an and Li Yunyuan. Later praise for Bai Xiaosheng even involved them.
The benefits Bai Xiaosheng obtained naturally made him happy, but they were not what he expected most.
Initially, when Bai Xiaosheng volunteered to "alarm the snake," he also had a small personal agenda; the most desired "benefit" was to use this opportunity to complete his advancement task.
Back then, Red Lotus assigned him two system tasks.
The task Bai Xiaosheng accepted was to agree to the group’s arrangement for him to come to Oceania as a "firefighter," and within a year, under the premise of not affecting his main duties, investigate a major mistake or issue involving a vice chairman-level person to complete the task.
Bai Xiaosheng considered whether he could involve Vice Chairman Morgan in the matters of Golun International and Ice Spring Valley to meet the task requirements.
However, now it seems that this is not feasible.
Of course, Bai Xiaosheng is not excessively demanding, as there will always be opportunities in the future.
It’s unnecessary to ruin the overall situation just to complete a task.
The brighter Bai Xiaosheng’s future looked, the more some people suffered.
It wasn’t just Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline, but even Mrs. Margery faced allegations regarding the Ice Spring Valley issue, as the group ordered her to strictly investigate the enterprises under her command, earning her targeted criticism from high-level executives.
Mrs. Margery, however, showed a great attitude, neither refuting nor arguing, earnestly carrying out a comprehensive investigation.
Not only that, she even personally called Bai Xiaosheng to thank him, with sincere words and attitude.
Regarding Mrs. Margery, Bai Xiaosheng specifically inquired about her from Wen Yan.
Vice Chairman Morgan had helped Margery, and she instructed the enterprises under her to send benefits to Vice Chairman Morgan, yet this woman isn’t a firm supporter of Vice Chairman Morgan.
That fact is quite peculiar.
Wen Yan, as the head of the monitoring department, managed to gather some uncertain information after thorough investigation and conveyed it to Bai Xiaosheng.
It was said Mrs. Margery, to repay a personal favor, promised Vice Chairman Morgan to bring his family billions of profit during her term.
Besides this, she wouldn’t involve herself in other issues.
Although secretly involved in shady deals, maintaining some so-called bottom lines, Mrs. Margery’s actions are quite baffling.
However, in this vast world, wonders never cease to amaze, all kinds of bizarre characters cease to be too surprising.
Wen Yan’s unverified information was just this, useful yet not that useful.
Aside from this, Bai Xiaosheng also realized that Mrs. Margery is indeed capable. Even with her enterprises supplying Vice Chairman Morgan’s side, the overall profitability of the Sixth Business Division continued advancing and climbing.
This fact even made Bai Xiaosheng marvel.
Unable to make thorough contact with Mrs. Margery, Bai Xiaosheng and his team used Fei’er to explore and gain insights into the situation.
Following the prior incidents, Fei’er has evidently become more astute, sticking to Bai Xiaosheng and his team like a remora, hard to shake off.
However, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t intend to shake her off again, as his own presence under Mrs. Margery’s watch allowed for some reassurance, which then could diffuse the sentiment to Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline, prompting those dormant enterprises to become restless again after a long period of quiet.
Bai Xiaosheng didn’t hesitate either; with Fei’er around, he assigned her a substantial workload along the journey, sometimes even more than Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.
Fei’er proved to be strong and capable, working swiftly and excellently, showcasing her mother’s grace, earning Bai Xiaosheng’s satisfaction.
In this way, time flew by, and months swiftly passed by.
In the blink of an eye, eight or nine months quietly slipped by, and Bai Xiaosheng’s one-year assignment term was nearing its end.
During this period, Bai Xiaosheng led Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying, and Fei’er across the countries of Oceania, resolving numerous tricky problems for the Sixth Business Division, with enormous funds at his disposal flowing like water.
During this time, Bai Xiaosheng’s reputation at the group headquarters remained consistently strong, thanks to the admiration of Wen Yan, Lu Cheng’an, and Li Yunyuan.
Bai Xiaosheng met hundreds of successful businessmen across the countries of Oceania, establishing deep cooperation with outstanding ones among them, involving them in his business alliances and introducing them into his broad business network.
During this time, although unrelated to Bai Xiaosheng, three incidents targeting Vice Chairman Morgan’s family and the Caroline family erupted, occurring almost every three months.
Vice Chairman Morgan and the North American Business President Caroline, along with Bai Xiaosheng, became the group headquarters’ perpetual topics of discussion.
The continued pursuit of Vice Chairman Morgan and Caroline was naturally arranged by Bai Xiaosheng and Wen Yan, and with adequate evidence collected, their dormancy in the later stages proved futile.
A series of investigations proceeded like war drums relentlessly beating.
However, amidst the flourishing situation, Bai Xiaosheng faced a troublesome issue.
With just over a month left until the end of his term, despite his multiple attempts to hold Vice Chairman Morgan accountable, the task was still not completed.
Bai Xiaosheng was troubled, "Could it be that my methods have been too gentle."
