616 Aura
The ultimate goal of these businessmen was to have a say in some policy adjustments.
And this had always been taboo and suppressed within the country.
The NPC was a group, and their status was somewhat special. Although there were hundreds of them in the country, there were only one or two in each city and county.
Moreover, if they worked together, they could even influence the choice of the country’s supreme ruler.
Even the revision of the constitution had to be discussed and approved by the NPC. Every NPC representative was an absolute social elite.
It was no wonder that everyone was dumbfounded, but they were even more puzzled.
How could the spot fall on Zhang Rong? Zhang Rong was not a good person.
In a sense, the NPC representatives were models with a strong sense of social responsibility and morality. They would truly lead by example and put it into practice.
However, this had nothing to do with Zhang Rong. He killed and maimed, committing all kinds of evil. It was already quite rare for him not to harm others. It was better to believe that praying to God was really useful, rather than to expect him to do good deeds.
“Oh? Since Mr. Zhang has said so, then the chances of winning this competition should be very high. Perhaps in the future, our businesses will have to depend on you to scrap by,” the bald man in white said ruefully.
Of course, he didn’t want Zhang Rong to really sit in that position. Once Zhang Rong succeeded in the election, the first thing he would do was to get rid of these business competitors of his. However, he still had to use some flattering words. He wanted to take this opportunity to test whether Zhang Rong had full confidence in the election.
Just as everyone’s gazes were burning as they looked at Zhang Rong, awaiting his answer, the sound of footsteps came from afar. Then, knocks sounded on the wooden door.
“Come in,” Zhang Rong said loudly,
The door was pushed open from the outside.
“Mr. Zhang, I’m really sorry. There was a traffic jam on the way, so I’m late.” The person raised his hand to mop the sweat from his forehead as he stammered.
He was short, only about 1.6 meters tall. Looking around in a coat that was too large for him, he looked a little submissive.
“A traffic jam? What car did you take?”
“…Volkswagen.” The short man hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth at being smilingly questioned by Zhang Rong.
Among the group of people who were seated, his status was obviously at a disadvantage. Now that he was even late, he naturally could not avoid being interrogated by Zhang Rong.
As for the reason why his business was not as good as the others, it was very simple. He followed the rules and was a very honest businessman.
“Volkswagen? We all use Rolls-Royce, Bentley… You were in a Volkswagen; no wonder you’re late,” Zhang Rong continued with a smile.
As soon as he said this, the short man became even more embarrassed. Other than him, who was standing, the remaining seven people were all seated.
“You came on a Volkswagen… I’m afraid you’re not qualified to participate in this meeting.” Zhang Rong sighed and shook his head slightly.
“Mr. Zhang, give me a chance. I…” Although the short man knew that he no longer had any dignity to speak of, he still did not give up. He wanted to fight for a final chance.
“Find a place to sit,” Zhang Rong sneered, his lips curling slightly.
However, when the short man tried to find a seat, he realized that there were only seven seats, and all of them were occupied…
“Can you find a seat?” Zhang Rong asked softly, looking at the short man who was at a loss.
“No… No, I can’t,” the short man said dejectedly as if his spirit had been sucked out of him.
“Go back. I’ll inform you if there are any results,” Zhang Rong said calmly.
With just a few words, the short man’s qualification to participate in the bidding was directly denied in front of everyone. There was no doubt that Zhang Rong was not targeting this short and unlucky real estate developer. From the beginning, he had only prepared seven seats.
Whoever came last would be disqualified.
In the end, the short man left with an unwilling expression.
He had already done his best.
This discussion of Zhang Rong’s was temporary. When the short man found out about this news, it had been noon that day. He was on a business trip more than 2,000 kilometers away…
As the short man left, the atmosphere in the room became a little strange again.
Zhang Rong’s strength and dominance caught everyone off guard.
“Regarding Greenland Group’s land bid, it’ll be settled according to what I’ve said before.” Zhang Rong emphasized each word after silence had been restored.
“I’m done. Who agrees and who disagrees?”
