Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five.

After Zhou Fengliu finished sharing the spoils with Chen Duo—no, after he gave Chen Duo her year-end bonus—he received a phone call.

This phone call led him to go directly to the headquarters of Nadutong instead of returning to the South China region.

As he rose through the ranks, he seemed to have lost the carefree days he used to enjoy foot massages in the North China region.

When it's time to make money, it's really lucrative; when it's busy... it's also incredibly busy.

Zhou Fengliu first reminisced about the old days, then got into the luxury car heading to the headquarters of Nadutong.

A few hours later.

Inside the headquarters building of NaDuTong.

The board of directors, headed by Zhao Fangxu, awaits the return of Huang Boren and Zhou Fengliu.

The board members unanimously agreed that Zhou Fengliu had done a perfect job in preventing a conflict between Lu Jin and Li Muxuan a few hours earlier, which undoubtedly added to his reputation.

...

"Chairman Jay Chou and Chairman Huang have arrived."

As the door opened, Chairman Su led Huang Boren and Zhou Fengliu into the conference room.

"Xiao Zhou, you've worked hard."

"And Chairman Huang, you've worked hard too."

Zhao Fangxu led everyone to stand up and greet them, a scene that left Zhou Fengliu somewhat bewildered.

This feels more like welcoming a hero.

I don't think I did anything?

...

“Come, Xiao Zhou... sit here. Originally, I was going to let you go back and rest, but the matter on Nathan Island... still needs your participation, so I have to ask you to work hard again.”

As Zhao Fangxu spoke from the main seat, he handed the first seat on his left to Zhou Fengliu.

"Mr. Zhao, work is work, what job isn't hard..."

Zhou Fengliu sat down in a chair, and with him and Huang Boren taking their seats, the internal board meeting of Nadutong was officially convened.

The meeting was first initiated by Huang Boren.

As the leader of the observation team, he described the events that had occurred on Nathan Island to the board of directors, with Zhou Fengliu providing some additional details about the island.

After hearing the full story and confirming that Zhou Fengliu's missile had bombed the Behemoth aircraft carrier, the directors present all wanted to see how Zhou Fengliu would make a missile by hand.

Faced with everyone's curiosity, Zhou Fengliu also demonstrated how to create a small Qi-controlled missile in front of all the directors.

Seeing Zhou Fengliu's wild behavior, the board members present were a little flustered, fearing that if they looked at him for too long, it would explode.

If this missile were to explode here, the entire board of directors of NaDaTong would probably have to be replaced.

Humanoid self-propelled missile launch platform...

Not only were the enemies afraid, but their own people were also quite frightened after witnessing it firsthand.

This is no longer an ordinary director.

Compared to the directors present, Zhou Fengliu's position should be described as "strategic".

He can just wander around abroad whenever he wants, which is enough to make other countries' supernatural organizations tremble with fear.

...

"Let me say a few words first. Regardless of your attitude, I agree with what Jay Chou did. He deserves to be punished. Those Behemoth businessmen should have their arrogant arrogance extinguished."

Bi Youlong, who came from the front lines, strongly agreed with Zhou Fengliu's actions. He didn't think Zhou Fengliu had gone too far; on the contrary, he felt that the fire wasn't big enough.

We should leave none behind... to avoid transmitting data to Behemoth headquarters.

“Chairman Bi is still as tough as ever... Now that Chairman Zhou has joined, he’s even tougher,” Huang Boren said.

"That's how it should be... Strike hard once to avoid a hundred blows. If you don't scare them, they'll start coveting you."

Bi Youlong responded in this way.

"Alright, Chairman Bi, now we need to discuss the next steps regarding Nathan Island."

As the meeting began to veer off course, Zhao Fangxu steered the conversation back on track. He adjusted his glasses and looked at Zhou Fengliu to his left, asking:

"Xiao Zhou, you said on the phone... Nathan Island wants to cooperate with us, right?"

“Yes, cooperation. King Nathan is very keen to cooperate with us. To show his importance, he even sent two Nathan Guards over…” Zhou Fengliu replied.

"Where is Nathan Guard?" Zhao Fangxu asked.

“Mr. Zhao, Chairman Zhou asked me to temporarily house them at the hotel…” Huang Boren said as he took over.

"Oh, I see." Zhao Fangxu nodded, then paused for a moment before continuing:

"As you all know, Nathan Island was invaded by Behemoth after the Divine Tree was destroyed and the ritual was terminated... Fortunately, our Director Zhou happened to be on the island and quelled Behemoth's rampant behavior..."

"Although Behemoth is gone, the damage he left on Nathan Island remains."

"Since King Nathan has requested our help and wants to cooperate with us, out of humanitarian considerations, and also out of our commitment to maintaining a relationship of mutual assistance among the world's Inhumans..."

"I feel that we can help the people of Nathan rebuild their homes..."

"What do you, the board members, think?"

Faced with Zhao Fangxu's question, none of them answered first. Seeing that everyone was silent, Huang Boren stepped forward.

"Mr. Zhao, helping Nathan Island is certainly an option, but the timing is crucial..."

"Our relationship with Nathan Island was already quite delicate during this Nathan Island war. If, at this critical juncture, we suddenly announce our support for Nathan Island..."

"In the eyes of Behemoth, or other forces, wouldn't this mean that we covet Nathan Island and thus replace Behemoth?"

have to say...

Huang Boren's remarks make a lot of sense. This concerns international relations, so Na Du Tong needs to carefully consider all decisions.

"Yes, Chairman Huang is right," Zhao Fangxu agreed.

Zhao Fangxu had naturally considered Huang Boren's idea, but the fact that he brought it up at this time meant that he didn't want to delay it any longer.

Therefore, he asked Zhou Fengliu, who had first proposed the cooperation on Nathan Island:

"Xiao Zhou... what about you? What are your thoughts?"

“Speak freely. Don’t be afraid to speak up just because you’ve just joined our group… The board needs energetic ideas from young people like you.”

Zhao Fangxu's hint was quite obvious, and Zhou Fengliu, who had worked with Zhao Fangxu once before, understood and picked up the conversation:

"Mr. Zhao asked me to speak, so I'll just say a few words..."

“I think we can’t wait. If Nathan Wang doesn’t take the initiative to ask for help, then what Chairman Huang said is very true. Providing help and establishing cooperation rashly will affect the company’s international image.”

"But it was King Nathan who brought this up... If we hesitate, wouldn't we look like we're cold-blooded and ruthless?"

...

P.S.: I pray for everything as usual. Goodnight and sweet dreams to all my godfathers.

Chapter 430 I told you to say it, and you actually did! (First Update)

"Without the Divine Tree and its benefits, Nathan Island is just going to stand by and do nothing? King Nathan has asked for help, and we've turned a blind eye..."

Is this right?

Zhou Fengliu glanced at the several directors of NaDuTong present, and seeing that no one answered, he continued:

"Obviously...that's not right."

"Our land of China has always been a great nation, a land of propriety, and we always do things with integrity. If we say we'll hit you three times, we won't hit you more than once. That's the difference between us and those Behemoth-like businessmen..."

They're there for profit, while we're there for the people of Nathan Island who are still suffering and displaced by the war..."

"So... when faced with a request for help from a civilized nation, a country torn apart by war, I don't think we should worry about how other foreign supernatural organizations view us."

"What we should be thinking about is how to help them, how to help them recover from the devastating impact of war as quickly as possible."

"This is the kind of contribution we, as directors of Nadutong, should make to the stability of the world's supernatural community."

"As for the slander against us by other organizations or individuals, I believe the facts will speak for themselves."

Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, the gazes of the directors present towards him all changed.

Especially the "director" sitting in the far corner... who was sent down from above and wore a red hat, nodded in agreement after hearing Zhou Fengliu's words.

At this age, with this ability, this insight, this awareness...

This young man's position should have been promoted several levels in succession.

Seeing the shocked looks on the faces of the directors present because of Zhou Fengliu's speech, Zhao Fangxu was also very satisfied with Zhou Fengliu's performance.

His eyes, hidden behind round-framed glasses, held a hint of admiration as he looked at Zhou Fengliu.

Perhaps Zhao Fangxu didn't expect that Zhou Fengliu was truly not intimidated under their watchful eyes.

Let him speak... and he actually did make a good point.

Long face, extremely long face.
