Chapter 196: 196: Who Will Win? _1
By the time I got to the scene, reporters had already taken their seats in the conference room.
The secretary arranged for me to sit in the front row.
Oddly enough, that Ye Fan was sitting next to me.
He would occasionally bow his head to send out text messages.
He must be trying to contact Gu Yuanzhou.
Looks like Gu Yuanzhou was very interested in this matter.
Ding Yinuo, dressed in a suit, stood on the podium, wearing a suit I had selected for him.
He always had the image of a refined and handsome man, always liked to wear light-colored clothes, even his suits were typically sky blue or light blue.
While it looked good and unique, it lacked the domineering aura of a man in the corporate world.
But the high-end black suit I picked for him today, paired with a white shirt and a dark blue tie, contrasted well against his deep demeanor.
Ding Xiao walked briskly into the room just two minutes before the meeting was about to begin.
Now, with his reputation tarnished by scandal and his marriage in crisis, Ding Xiao looked pale and haggard. The stubble on his face had robbed him of his past charm.
Upon seeing Ding Xiao arrive, Ding Yinuo immediately handed the microphone over to him.
Ding Xiao nodded, took the microphone, and announced the start of the press conference.
“Ladies and gentlemen, due to some personal reasons, I have made mistakes in my personal affairs, which has made it impossible for me to devote my energy to managing the company. I am now transferring the position of President to Mr. Ding Yinuo. I hope you will all give him your full support in the future.”
This left me dumbfounded.
I had originally thought that it was Ding Yinuo’s responsibility today to clarify the events of the past few days.
Unexpectedly, Ding Xiao resigned as soon as he arrived.
And he handed over the company to Ding Yinuo.
It seemed that the reporters were as shocked as I was. They apparently didn’t anticipate this situation.
So, as soon as Ding Xiao finished speaking, they all swarmed around him.
“Manager Ding, you’re in your prime. Are you acting impulsively by resigning from the CEO’s position?”
“Manager Ding, could you elaborate on the powder poisoning incident on Queen’s Cruise?”
“Manager Ding, regarding your affair with your female secretary, will you divorce your wife?”
Ding Xiao, hiding his face with one hand and striding out, said, “No comment, if you have any questions ask the new CEO!”
Soon after, Ding Xiao’s weary figure had disappeared from the conference room.
At this point, the reporters turned their cameras on the newly appointed Ding Yinuo.
Seeing the thick script in Ding Yinuo’s hand, I knew he was well prepared.
“Manager Ding, could you explain the incident of the former CEO for us?”
Ding Yinuo waved his hand in a pause gesture.
“As you can see, Ding Xiao has resigned! In order not to disturb his private life, I hope you all don’t hound him. Additionally, today, I will only accept questions related to the future development of Tianjiao Company. I will not accept any interview related to Ding Xiao.”
His tone was firm and his gaze was cold.
With this statement, no more questions were asked.
Since Ding Xiao was no longer the CEO of Tianjiao Company, he was now just a common man. The media had lost interest in his personal affairs.
Wise reporters then turned their full attention to the new CEO, Ding Yinuo.
“Manager Ding, we heard that you used to be a doctor, and now you’ve switched to business. Do you feel competent?”
Ding Yinuo seemed very calm,
“I started studying medicine when I was 19 but I began working on Tianjiao’s management when I was 10. I’ve been involved in Tianjiao’s management for a long time, and being a doctor is just part of my work. In fact, I spend much of my time handling part of Tianjiao’s business.”
“Manager Ding, do you have any new plans after taking office?”
“We are currently working on it, please pay attention to our website, we will notify everyone when there are new updates!”
The reporters asked all kinds of tricky and weird questions, but Ding Yinuo handled them all with ease.
However, the press conference was kept short and ended in a little over twenty minutes.
Moreover, it appeared that the press conference was well received by the journalists who voiced no objections.
Just after the press conference, Ding Yinuo called a high-level management meeting late into the night
When the meeting ended, he came out of his office and Su Peisheng quickly walked over and shoved a large bouquet of flowers into my hands.
“Here you go, keep up the good work!”
Turns out, after all this time, the flowers were for me.
Su Peisheng had put a lot of thought into this.
I held the bouquet in front of Ding Yinuo and looked up at him.
“Manager Ding, congratulations!”
“Accept your congratulations!”
As he accepted the flowers, he took the opportunity to embrace me in his arms.
At that moment, one reporter hadn’t left, and he secretly captured this moment from the corridor
In truth, I saw him running away in panic, but didn’t stop him. I don’t care about Gu Yuanzhou anymore, he can think whatever he wants.
That night, Wenya, Su Peisheng and I all stayed by Ding Yinuo’s side, not going home.
Waiting for the arrival of tomorrow.
I knew very well in my heart that the sudden switch of leadership at Tianjiao Company was the current decision made by the Ding Family.
Whether or not it worked, depended on tomorrow’s public opinion and how the situation would develop.
At first, the four of us played poker together.
When it was a little past three in the morning, Wenya couldn’t hold on any longer and fell asleep on the couch.
Su Peisheng grabbed a blanket and snuggled up next to her.
Ding Yinuo stood by the window, gazing at the thousands of lights in the city. He stood there for a long time.
I walked next to him, “What are you thinking about?”
Ding Yinuo looked at me and smiled, “Who do you think will win, me or Gu Yuanzhou?”
“That sounds familiar!”
“Who else has said that?”
“Wenya!”
I glanced back at the couch, Wenya was fast asleep.
“So what was your answer?”
Although the real answer was somewhat disappointing, I still chose to tell the truth.
“You can’t beat Gu Yuanzhou!”
“So, you have no faith in me?”
I gave a little chuckle but didn’t speak.
Ding Yinuo reached out to pinch my face, “What if I add you, couldn’t the two of us beat him then?”
“Well, that still wouldn’t be enough, even if you added two of me!”
“We’ll see tomorrow!”
“Aren’t you tired? I could get you a room if you want! Don’t stay up with me!”
“It’s ok, I’m not sleepy!”
Even though I said I wasn’t sleepy, Ding Yinuo didn’t want me to stay up. So, we left Wenya and Su Peisheng behind and got a room in the hotel next door.
We were followed and secretly photographed along the way.
