Early the next morning, before the Chamber of Commerce started, the atmosphere in the International Convention Center on the 99th floor already felt very different.

Everyone came very early, it was only 7:30 AM and the seats were already full. The eeriest thing wasn’t this, but that practically no one was talking at all.

The entire International Convention Center was completely silent.

Qian Guangzhao, who was seated in front, strangely looked around, felt puzzled, and said, “What is this situation?” Not only this, he didn’t know why, but whoever he looked at, the person would lower his head and not look at him. Even those inner members whom he allied previously were looking at documents, looking at the floor, looking at the ceiling, but no one looked at him.

“What’s wrong with them today?” Qian Guangzhao felt like he was sitting on needles. He wanted to ask someone, but he felt it was too embarrassing to do so.

Luckily, not too long later, Wen Jianan and the other four magnates came in with their assistants. After everyone was seated, Wen Jianan knocked the mallet and asked in a deep voice, “The conference shall continue today…”

But before he finished, Mu Tie, who was sitting below, raised his hand and loudly said, “Director Wen, I request to impeach Qian Guangzhao!”

“Hm?” Wen Jianan and the other four shared a look, then Wen Jianan strangely asked, “Director Mu, are you really requesting to impeach Qian Guangzhao?” It was no wonder he felt puzzled. Although it was rare for a call for impeachment to happen, it wasn’t really a strange thing. However, having two impeachments in one conference, that was a bit…

Mu Tie nodded and said, “According to the Chamber of Commerce’s rules, the party who requested the impeachment could also be impeached by the other inner members once, to prevent him from gathering too many supporters and affecting the balance. Am I right?”

What Mu Tie said was one of the Chamber of Commerce’s rules.

Simply put, this was a supplementary rule to limit the members from gathering too many supporters, therefore gaining a huge advantage. For example, to impeach Hong Weiguo, Qian Guangzhao would naturally need to gather a large number of inner members to support him in order to succeed. But this led to another problem—for a short period of time, Qian Guangzhao’s influence and power would be significantly boosted. Therefore, to prevent the Chamber of Commerce from becoming a single person or party’s rule, once Qian Guangzhao started impeaching Hong Weiguo, the other inner members could directly request to impeach Qian Guangzhao. This would prevent Qian Guangzhao from becoming too arrogant and attack other members for nothing.

Originally, this type of situation was secretly controlled by the five magnates. If they discovered that Qian Guangzhao was attacking the members who were against him through this power, they would contact the other members to kick him out to prevent the Chamber of Commerce from going astray.

But today, Mu Tie actually directly requested for his impeachment. This…

“Director Mu, are you sure?” Wen Jianan asked.

“Of course.” Mu Tie glanced at Qian Guangzhao and said, “This isn’t child’s play. Of course I am sure.”

“Impeach me? You?” Qian Guangzhao laughed loudly and said, “To impeach an inner member, you need the signature of more than two-thirds of the members, and the total net worth must exceed the impeached party by five times! Hong Weiguo has already been kicked out by me, you guys don’t have a leader now, and you still want to impeach me!?”

“Whether I am able to impeach you or not, it’s not your call.” Mu Tie told out the same document that Qian Guangzhao told out when he impeached Hong Weiguo and put it on the table. “This is what matters!”

“Good! I shall wait and see how are you going to impeach me!” Qian Guangzhao gritted his teeth and said, “I hope you won’t regret this!”

“Of course I won’t regret this.” Mu Tie looked at Wen Jianan and said, “Director Wen, please take a look.”

What proceeded next totally exceeded Qian Guangzhao’s imagination.

Wen Jianan looked at the signatures on the document, gave a deep sigh, and said, “The impeaching party, a total of 117 people, the signatures are all valid. Therefore, I declare—

“Heavenly State Qian Family Energy Group Co., Ltd., Director Qian Guangzhao is now impeached.”

After he said this and landed the mallet, things were finalized.

The entire International Convention Center was completely silent.

Hong Dali only made a small move, but he didn’t even know that Hong Weiguo was already impeached out of the Chamber of Commerce, and the previously mighty and influential Qian Guangzhao was instantly sent to hell.

“This is impossible! This is impossible!” Qian Guangzhao was totally stunned! Out of all of the inner members, other than himself who was impeached and Mu Tie who requested the impeaching, the other 117 members had all agreed!

How was this possible!? How was this possible!?

“You! You! You! And you!” Qian Guangzhao continuously pointed at the other members. “I promised you all so many conditions and benefits, you guys actually betrayed me like this! Why! Why did you guys do this! What other benefits could Hong Weiguo have given you all!?”

“I’m really sorry.” Cheng Qifu, who was seated beside him, looked at him and slowly said, “Compared to those conditions and benefits, health is more important. Director Qian, if I say that you can extend your life for another 10 years, will you agree to whatever conditions that I ask?”

“Health!?” Qian Guangzhao looked around at the other inner members. “Hong Weiguo, he can give you all health!? How is that possible!”

Everyone opened their hands and shrugged. “That’s indeed the case.”

Qian Guangzhao totally panicked now. In order to impeach Hong Weiguo and defeat the Hong Family, he had given his all. Gathering supporters, suppressing his enemies, dividing them, agreeing to numerous conditions! He even got the support of the five magnates. Only then did he really dare to strike at Hong Weiguo.

But he had never expected that just a few days later, even before Hong Weiguo’s Sangle had suffered any major damage, he was already impeached just like this? What’s more, it was by all of the inner members!?

Cold sweat instantly covered his head and face.

Previously, when he impeached Hong Weiguo, many inner members weren’t willing, in fear of offending Hong Weiguo’s loyal supporters.

But this time it was totally different! All 117 inner members stood on Hong Weiguo’s side!

In this case, once they made their move against him…

“Qian Guangzhao.” Wen Jianan looked at Qian Guangzhao with complex eyes and slowly said, “According to the rules…”

“Rules… Hehe… Rules…” Qian Guangzhao laughed and suddenly scolded. “To hell with the rules! I’m not even a member of the Chamber of Commerce anymore, why should I care about the rules! You! You! And you! All of you! Just wait, all of you just wait!”

“Silence!” Wen Jianan pounded hard on the gavel. “Impeachment is over. All inner circle members are to go back to prepare. Adjourn!”

…

Door to Heaven, top-level large conference room.

“Qian Guangzhao didn’t even last a single round and is already kicked out.” Wen Jianan’s face was full of depression. “He was knocked down too fast. We have to adjust our plans immediately. If not, our plans will all be affected greatly.”

Sun Yuanzhou rubbed his temple with both hands and said, “Damn it. I knew it. I knew that this kid Hong Dali was a big variable to our plans. We had already specially chosen the timing when he went out to sea to ask Qian Guangzhao to impeach Hong Weiguo, but I never expected that Hong Dali only just moved a finger and this traitor Qian Guangzhao is already defeated.”

The other three magnates all nodded violently. “Exactly. Hong Dali this prodigal is really too frightening.”

“We already expected him to cause some accidents for us and prepared dozens of countermeasures, but I never expected that none of them came in handy and Qian Guangzhao already got defeated.”

“What’s the point of saying all these now? What we need to do now is to hurriedly think of something. Things must not go out of control, especially regarding Hong Weiguo.”

“Yes, it’s no use whatever we say now. The most important now is two things.” Wen Jianan slowly said, “One, contact the Bureau Chief and ask for new instructions. Two, protect Hong Weiguo’s safety. I suspect that Qian Guangzhao might have thrown caution to the wind and is ready to go down together with Hong Weiguo. Everything started because of Hong Weiguo, Qian Guangzhao definitely won’t stop at this. Therefore, the most important thing is to prevent Qian Guangzhao from harming Hong Weiguo!”

“Yup, I shall contact the Bureau Chief now.” Sun Yuanzhou nodded and said, “Now that Qian Guangzhao is defeated, this traitor is useless now. He can be disposed of. To be honest, every time I see him boot-licking Shiroishi Kazuma, I feel wholly uncomfortable!”

“OK. Everyone, go back and make arrangements.” Wen Jianan concluded. “Remember, Hong Weiguo’s safety is of the utmost concern now. There definitely can’t be any accidents regarding this.”

…

Tianhai City, inside Li Jing Hotel.

Qian Guangzhao was kicked out by Hong Weiguo and the other two, they naturally needed to host a celebration party.

Today, those present finally truly understood how powerful Hong Dali was. It wasn’t an overstatement to say that Hong Dali’s influence and power were already fully grown. Other than hugging the Hong Family’s thighs, they didn’t have a second option anymore.

It was frightening, it was really too frightening.

Hong Dali only just casually made a move and Qian Guangzhao already ended up like this, and they were enemies with him previously… Once they thought of this, all those present felt their body go cold…

Therefore, the numerous people were trying to improve their relationships with Hong Weiguo now—

“Director Hong, I am truly sorry. My heart was blinded previously, that’s why I stood on Qian Guangzhao’s side. You are a magnanimous person, please don’t hold it against me!”

“Director Hong, oh my, I was really terrified of your Dali previously, that’s why I stood on the wrong side. Please don’t put it to heart. From now on, I will definitely follow your lead closely and definitely not have a second heart!”

“Director Hong, thank you. Thank your Dali, too! My gastric cancer was really tormenting me. I shan’t talk about that anymore, it’s just all tears! Now, it’s finally over, just this short while and I already felt very energetic. My stomach doesn’t hurt anymore! You really saved my life!”

“Exactly, exactly. I even coughed blood because of my lung cancer previously. Now, it doesn’t hurt anymore. Oh my, this item is really fabulous. Director Hong, rest assured, I will definitely attack wherever you point at. Although money is a good thing, life is still more important!”

Numerous people came to pull connections with him, Hong Weiguo put on a smile and entertained them.

After he finally replied to every single one of them, Gong Zhiwen walked over and softly said, “Director Hong, this time, just selling the stones that increase health alone, I have sold 364 pieces. That’s a total of 18.2 billion—it’s all in this card. Director Hong, please take a look!”
