Subscribe) At this moment, in the President’s office of the Zhenbei Group Greater China Region Headquarters,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiahou Qi was surveying the gathering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before him, ten Senior Affairs Officers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regional heads and Senior Affairs Officers, two major groups, together made up the highest management level of the Zhenbei Group’s Greater China Region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These before him, were essentially half the empire of the Zhenbei Group’s Greater China Region!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what they were currently discussing was the position of the future Candidate Great Affairs Officer, who would eventually sit among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given recent circumstances, adjustments also had to be made to the finer details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The topic at hand was “age and experience.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the process, Xiahou Qi spoke very little, leaving the discussion to the ten officers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I believe that to become a Great Affairs Officer, one must have mature temperament and extensive experience; candidates should be at least forty years old!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One person declared without yielding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man, around fifty years old, had dense hair mingled with grey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had an imposing appearance, but there was a forceful intensity between his brows and eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was hard to imagine, at this age, he still possessed such sharpness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His presence seemed to overshadow everyone else where he sat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And his seat was second only to Shen Peisheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great Affairs Officer Fang Beijun was the second in rank among the Senior Affairs Officers, just after Shen Peisheng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ranking of the Senior Affairs Officers was not solely based on age, but a variety of comprehensive indices including experience and performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, what was most important was the approval of all the Senior Affairs Officers, as well as Xiahou Qi’s approval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Fang Beijun’s suggestion directly blocked the current two most popular figures—Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Yu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Effectively barring these two from even being candidates for Senior Affairs Officer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Peisheng smiled at him, “Beijun, focusing just on age seems inappropriate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In ancient times, there were numerous examples of youths who became marquises or chancellors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such a sweeping rule, aren’t we simply ranking by age?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Shen Peisheng glanced at the other Senior Affairs Officers with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those officers were older than Fang Beijun but ranked lower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Peisheng’s glance was both a hint and a warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly smiled, “Sir Shen is right, it was just a suggestion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Sir Shen has a different opinion, we can certainly discuss it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the topic is about the age and experience of the Candidate Great Affairs Officer, why don’t we combine the two?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s ease the age requirement and add an experience condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three years—candidates must have served as an Affairs Officer for more than three years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How’s that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the start, Fang Beijun had no intention of blocking Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because that would mean challenging Shen Peisheng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Fang Beijun was ranked second, he wouldn’t dare to directly confront the top-ranked Shen Peisheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason he purposefully excluded Lin Yu was to give Shen Peisheng an opportunity to speak, and then he could take the chance to return the favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Shen Peisheng would then owe him a favor and would not oppose his next proposal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Fang Beijun’s second point sounded reasonable and incidentally kept Bai Xiaosheng on the outside!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, it was also beneficial for Lin Yu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the previous favor in mind, Fang Beijun believed that Shen Peisheng would not stand in his way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This way, Bai Xiaosheng, that greenhorn, will be cut off from the Candidate Senior Affairs Officer race!” Fang Beijun thought with a vicious smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Great Affairs Officer, he naturally had access to the performance records of the Affairs Officers, and Bai Xiaosheng was on par with Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Bai Xiaosheng found something incriminating on Lu Zhixin, he might surpass Lin Yu and become the Candidate Great Affairs Officer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun wouldn’t allow such a scenario to unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bai Xiaosheng, you mess with my people, I’ll cut off your future – seems fair, right?” Fang Beijun thought with a sneer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great Official Beijun, is this three-year restriction really necessary?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, before Shen Peisheng could respond, Haofeng Great Affairs Officer, who was the lowest-ranked among them, spoke up first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Does Haofeng Great Affairs Officer disagree?” Fang Beijun leaned slightly to the side, relying comfortably against the chair, and asked in a measured tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though this Li Haofeng was a newly promoted Great Affairs Officer, he was very close to Elder Xia, and Fang Beijun did not underestimate him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn’t fear him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Earlier, Sir Shen also mentioned that judging by age alone is unfair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, why do we need performance evaluations?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Affairs Officers could simply be ranked by age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I agree with that!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Haofeng, though honest and upright, wasn’t foolish in such a situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By publicly agreeing with Shen Peishen’s viewpoint, he immediately eliminated the possibility that Fang Beijun could later use Shen Peishen to refute him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also showing Shen Peishen a sign of respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that setting, there was a hint of the need for diplomatic tact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every word and action had to be considered carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“However, if we set a three-year minimum, aren’t we excluding many who are more capable?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, Bai Xiaosheng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His achievements over the past year have been extraordinary and visible to all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, every one of his actions has been impeccable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Haofeng said, “Even I must admit that I could only achieve that level of performance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we strictly enforce a three-year rule without exception, denying him even the opportunity, I’m afraid it will attract criticism from the other Affairs Officers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Haofeng reminded them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun snorted through his nostrils, “Who would dare criticize the decisions made by the higher-ups?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let them stand before me and say it; I want to see for myself!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haofeng Great Affairs Officer, you need to adjust to the authority of the Great Affairs Officer quickly, especially when the ten of us and Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia make a decision together, that is the final resolution!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are we supposed to consider whether the staff below us might have different perspectives or disagreements whenever we are about to make a decision in the future?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ridiculous!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun’s blunt words made Li Haofeng’s face darken slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In any case, I retain my opinion on this matter!” said Li Haofeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“May I have a word, gentlemen?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting next to Li Haofeng, Zheng Honghu spoke with a smile, “Both sides have their points, but this is an internal discussion, presided over by Elder Xia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone should feel free to express their views, whether they are for or against.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Honghu seemed neutral, but he was actually supporting Li Haofeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you suggest then, Great Official Zheng Honghu?” Fang Beijun asked with a sly smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he have an ally?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Fang Beijun think he had no supporters?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In my view, since there’s a disagreement, why not — vote on it?” Zheng Honghu suggested, smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voting?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun was taken aback and glanced at Shen Peishen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The latter, as always, showed no expression, neither supporting nor opposing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun glanced at the others; some looked at him, while others looked down, deep in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If there is a disagreement, then let’s vote.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ten Great Affairs Officers should vote,” Xiahou Qi suddenly spoke after having been silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the president of the Greater China Region Headquarters voiced his opinion, everyone naturally complied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Very well, I’ll make the gracious move this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who do not support adding the ‘three-year’ requirement, please raise your hand,” Fang Beijun said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he wanted the opposition to show their stance first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun thought to himself, everyone present is wise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would they want a young, fearless upstart like Sheng to become his equal and disrupt the balance?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, Shen Peishen wouldn’t add a competitor for his own favorite student!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Shen Peishen standing by him, could the opposition win?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun waited with a sneer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Haofeng was the first to raise his hand, followed by a chuckling Zheng Honghu, then the third person, the fourth person…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the fifth person raised a hand, Fang Beijun frowned, but then the person announced, “I abstain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun felt a surge of relief and became confident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as they were not supporters, that was fine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing no more hands raised, Fang Beijun’s lips curled up in a confident smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They lost, Li Haofeng and his group lost!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four people, how could they win against the remaining five?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Fang Beijun was reveling in his moment, Shen Peishen raised his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This old man also does not support it!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1460,"2026-06-05T17:42:48.184Z",1,"novelbin.me","0171102f9e53801c30397ae5f17e39845c8f94ac9025bf0d76816741904ac06c","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-992","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-990",2500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finheritance-of-two-trillion-cover.jpg"]
