The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

After a moment's hesitation, Chairman Rong reluctantly offered an explanation.

"The reason I asked you to resign is simple: as the head of the finance department, you cannot shirk your responsibility for the huge losses the company has suffered this time."

"The operation to handle this crisis officially began this Monday. The company will face a series of investigations, and you will certainly be among those investigated."

"The first to launch an investigation will be a special committee and a compliance investigation established by the group headquarters, and the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission will likely also launch an in-depth investigation."

"A wise person advised me that the best course of action now is to resign voluntarily, actively cooperate with the investigation, and turn the tables. I also believe this is the best course of action..."

Chairman Rong meticulously explained the reasons, advantages, and disadvantages of asking his niece to resign.

Listening to his analysis, Miss Rong fell silent.

His face kept changing color, alternating between blue and red, clearly indicating intense mental activity and significant emotional fluctuations.

After Chairman Rong finished his analysis and explanation, she gritted her teeth and asked in a deep voice:

"Is the 'expert' who suggested I resign voluntarily the same person you mentioned before, Ling Yun, the mastermind behind Yuanda Investment?"

Chairman Rong paused for a moment before nodding slightly.

"That's right, I'm talking about Ling Yun. His profound understanding of the international financial market is unparalleled in my life, and his suggestion is impeccable!"

"More importantly, he conducted an in-depth study of the crisis the company is currently facing and came up with an effective and currently best solution."

"That's why I accepted his suggestion and asked you to resign voluntarily. You must keep this matter strictly confidential; it's a serious matter and cannot be taken lightly!"

Miss Rong clenched her fists tightly, hesitated for a good seven or eight seconds, and then reluctantly nodded in response.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. I'll go to the company today and resign voluntarily. I'll also keep it strictly confidential and won't disclose any information about Lingyun."

"But I absolutely have to meet this guy and see if this newly crowned stock market guru is really that amazing, or if he has three heads and six arms!"

"call--!"

Chairman Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a little.

Then, he smiled and nodded slightly.

"That's great, it's wonderful that you think that way. Once this crisis is resolved smoothly, I will give you a better platform to realize your ambitions. You can also start your own business if you want."

"As for meeting Ling Yun, that's no problem either. Once things calm down, I'll invite him to my home, and then you'll be able to meet him!"

"To be honest, I'm really looking forward to seeing you two meet. Once you see him, you'll truly understand what it means to be outmatched."

Miss Rong clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction and complained:

"Is it really as exaggerated as you say? I don't believe it. How can he be that much better than me, an Ivy League graduate?"

"Haha, Fangfang, I'm not trying to discourage you, but in the field of financial investment, the gap between you and him is probably bigger than the gap between a person and a dog."

Chairman Rong made a few jokes with a smile.

Hearing that she, a Harvard graduate, was inferior to a dog, Miss Rong was furious.

"How can you be such a terrible uncle, speaking so ill of your own niece? I swear I'll never see that Ling guy again, or I'll tear him apart!"

Seeing her frantic state, Chairman Rong laughed even harder.

As his uncle, he certainly wouldn't believe that his niece, a Harvard graduate, was less capable than a dog!

His purpose in saying that was actually quite simple.

I just wanted to give this arrogant niece a good slap on the wrist and show her what a true genius is by comparing her to Ling Yun!

This shock might bring her down from her ivory tower and make her truly grounded!

Otherwise, she might make a similar mistake again in the future!

If she makes such a serious mistake again, there's no doubt that someone will step in to help clean up the mess!

"Damn, how come someone's always eyeing me?"

In the basement of the Bank of China Tower, Ling Yun reached out and touched his burning ears.

The next moment, he reached out, opened the car door, got out of the car, and stood beside it.

President Liu, who had been waiting there, immediately came to greet them.

Accompanying him were Director Yang from the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a suit and carrying an expensive briefcase.

Just by looking at his impeccable attire and the scrutinizing look in his eyes, one could be pretty sure that he was a lawyer, and a very experienced one at that.

That is indeed the case!

This guy is the senior lawyer Ling Yun hired in Hong Kong Island, and he is the managing partner of a well-known law firm located in the Bank of China Tower!

When I hired this private lawyer, the cooperation was established through Attorney Zhang's introduction. This is the first time we've met in person!

As they were talking, President Liu and Director Yang arrived.

We're all acquaintances, so there was a lot of polite conversation when we met.

Following closely behind President Liu and his group, the lawyer stepped forward and greeted Ling Yun.

"Hello Mr. Ling, welcome to Hong Kong Island. I am your private lawyer, Li Ka-kit. It is my pleasure to provide you with professional legal services."

"We've talked on the phone a few times before, but this is the first time we've met in person. You look even younger and more handsome than in the news!"

"Haha, I love hearing that."

Ling Yun chuckled and then shook hands with Li Jiajie.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Li Lu. I've seen your profile and photos on the computer before, and you look even more energetic in person."

"I've come to Hong Kong Island secretly this time to entrust you with many important tasks. I hope we can work together successfully."

Li Jiajie's eyes lit up, and he nodded hurriedly.

"Rest assured, Mr. Ling, we will provide you with the most professional and attentive legal services, and we will live up to your expectations!"

"As per your request, the rest of the legal team is in the conference room upstairs. You will meet them and get to know them shortly."

"Everyone is ready and at a moment's notice to assist you in taking over the newly acquired company!"

"Very good, I have faith in your professional abilities."

Ling Yun nodded approvingly, then turned to look at Director Liu.

"Let's go upstairs, President Liu. Let's meet with my receiving team and legal team first, and then we can handle the bank account and fund matters."

"Okay, Mr. Ling, please follow me."

President Liu gestured for him to enter.

He then led everyone towards the elevator and left the underground parking lot.

Just like when they went to the headquarters of China X in Hong Kong, Ling Yun and his group didn't encounter anyone else besides some bank security personnel during their journey.

After entering the elevator lobby, President Liu led Ling Yun and Director Yang into a private elevator and headed straight for the 20th floor of the Bank of China Tower, without stopping on any other floors in between.

Clearly, this was all arranged on purpose to keep Ling Yun's whereabouts a secret!

Ling Yun came to the Bank of China Tower today to meet with the senior management team and receiving team of Siyuan Capital, who had just arrived from the mainland, as well as the legal team led by Li Jiajie.

The second objective is to identify and manage the aforementioned $10 billion in funds to prepare for the next steps.

The third objective was to meet with senior executives of China X Group and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to determine matters related to rescuing China X Taifu's investment accounts.

In the blink of an eye, the dedicated elevator has arrived at the 20th floor of the Bank of China Tower.

"Ding!"

The moment the elevator doors opened, Ling Yun immediately saw several familiar faces!
