The system only arrives when you're old? Then let's create a super-rich family!

A tall and slender figure walked in slowly.

coming!

The current head of the Qin family is Qin Zihao!

In an instant, nearly a hundred pairs of eyes in the entire audience followed that figure.

Qin Zihao remained indifferent and walked straight to the head seat at the front of the conference room.

After he sat down, before he could even speak, someone couldn't contain themselves and abruptly stood up, their face plastered with a fawning smile, and said in a humble tone:

"President Qin! Yesterday, I was short-sighted and ignorant, and made the wrong choice in a moment of confusion! I sincerely apologize to you! From now on, I will follow the Qin family's lead to the death!"

"Look, could we renew the contract that was terminated yesterday?"

With the first person taking the lead, the rest of the wealthy people stood up one after another, vying to beg for mercy, and the scene was chaotic.

"President Qin, we were all caught up in the situation and had no choice but to act against the Qin family!"

"Yes, Mr. Qin! We deeply regret our mistake and will serve the Qin family wholeheartedly from now on, without any disloyalty!"

"In the Jiangnan market, we are willing to offer all our concessions and fully cooperate with the Qin family's strategy, only asking that President Qin give us another chance!"

Everyone's face was filled with longing and fear, and they humbled themselves, hoping that Qin Zihao would give in.

Looking at the group of sycophantic and opportunistic businessmen before him, a faint hint of mockery flashed in Qin Zihao's eyes.

"Yesterday, I gave you all a chance."

"Opportunity knocks but once; those of you who have spent half your lives in the business world surely understand this principle."

"If there is no other important business, you may all leave."

"The Qin family won't give us a second chance!"

The resolute words fell to the ground, leaving no room for negotiation, instantly shattering everyone's illusions.

Qin Zihao recalled the conversation between Bai Lingxi and his grandfather last night.

The mysterious dragon-shaped jade pendant, along with his grandfather's indifferent attitude towards everything, gave him immense confidence.

The Qin family of today no longer needs these opportunistic opportunists.

The wealthy people in the room instantly turned pale, hung their heads in dejection, and were filled with despair.

Some people refused to give up and continued to plead and beg, constantly lowering their stance and offering various generous terms.

Qin Zihao ignored them, clearly having no intention of paying them any attention.

In the front row, Xiao Shaojie sat motionless, his expression calm, his eyes revealing deep relief and admiration.

After returning home yesterday, Xiao Mingyuan convened a family meeting and formally announced his complete retirement, handing over all of the Xiao Group's businesses and all family decision-making power to him.

Today, he is the new leader of the Xiao family.

Looking at the scene before him, Xiao Shaojie felt a deep sense of melancholy.

Yesterday, he defied public opinion and firmly stood with the Qin family, even though everyone was pessimistic about the Qin family and even though he knew that the Xie family was strongly suppressing them, he still insisted on maintaining the cooperation with the Qin family.

His boldness and vision yesterday were instantly proven true.

The Qin family indeed has a trump card to counter the Xie family.

Although he didn't know exactly what methods the Qin family had used to make the arrogant Xie family voluntarily stop their suppression.

But none of that matters.

The important thing is that the Qin family won.

These families who were among the first to steadfastly follow and never abandon the Qin family will undoubtedly reap unimaginable rewards in the future.

If he had followed the trend and severed ties like other wealthy people yesterday, it would be the Xiao family standing here today, humbly begging for mercy and being ruthlessly rejected.

At that time, the Xiao family will not only miss the opportunity, but will also be completely kicked out of the core circle of Jiangnan and forced to go far away and find another way out.

A single thought can make all the difference.

Shen Hao and his son Shen Jianting, standing to the side, were also filled with emotion.

Looking at his promising and discerning son, Shen Jianting's eyes were filled with pride and satisfaction.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

If a family wants to prosper and achieve glory, it ultimately needs this enterprising and daring spirit of youth.

The owners of downstream raw material companies in the back row were in a state of confusion and unease.

They had initially hoped that if those established tycoons could regain their cooperation with the Qin family, they could rely on them and indirectly supply goods, thus avoiding the awkward situation of directly facing the Qin family.

Seeing the Qin family's resolute and uncompromising attitude, their confidence crumbled instantly, and they lost all confidence in resuming cooperation.

But soon, remembering what the Xie family had told them, "The Qin family wouldn't dare," they felt more confident.

A slightly overweight boss who mainly supplies machined parts took a deep breath, stood up with a stiff upper lip, rubbed his hands together, put on a smooth and ingratiating smile, and spoke in an extremely tactful tone.

"Mr. Qin, we are just small workshops and businesses; we have no choice but to accept this situation!"

"When gods clash, mortals suffer. The Xie family is exerting immense pressure, and we have no choice but to comply!"

"Now that the misunderstandings between the Qin and Xie families have been resolved and they have turned hostility into friendship, and the Qin family has secured a large number of government projects, resulting in a huge demand for downstream materials, we sincerely want to resume our cooperation. Could you consider renegotiating the previous contract?"

He spoke sincerely and even offered his own words of sincerity:

"If Mr. Qin agrees, we are willing to voluntarily give up 30% of our profits!"

After saying all that, he changed the subject, seemingly unintentionally but actually with a subtle pressure, and added a sentence in a low voice.

"Moreover, the Xie family specifically sent a message instructing us to maintain normal contact and cooperation with the Qin family in the future."

These words were an extremely smooth and diplomatic combination.

First, they played the victim and showed weakness to gain sympathy; then they offered concessions to demonstrate their sincerity; finally, they brought in the Xie family's support to give the Qin family a way out, while subtly exerting pressure.

In his view, Qin Zihao was just a young upstart. Even if he took charge of the Qin family, he wouldn't dare to openly disobey the Xie family's wishes and would inevitably agree to cooperate.

The shrewd downstream business owners present nodded in agreement, secretly praising the portly boss for his good manners and tact.

Everyone was certain that the Qin family would not provoke the Xie family again, and that today's cooperation would surely be successful.

Just as everyone was waiting for Qin Zihao to speak, the young man in the main seat slowly raised his head, a cold and sarcastic smile curling at the corner of his lips. His gaze swept across the entire room, and his voice was clear and sharp.

"Since you believe the Xie family is more powerful and that it's easier to take shelter under their umbrella, why bother coming to my Qin family's door to beg for help?"

"If you want to discuss business and secure orders, you can always go to the Xie family, can't you?"

Apart from Guo Fan and his two companions who were completely bewildered by what had happened, everyone else present looked shocked.

Is Qin Zihao looking down on the Xie family?

Didn't the Xie family voluntarily abandon their plan against the Qin family?

Why isn't the Qin family grateful at this time?

Xiao Shaojie swallowed hard, a terrifying possibility creeping into his mind from Qin Zihao's attitude...

The Qin family's trump card is not only to contend with the Xie family, but also to strike at them.

even...

Crush...the Xie family!

The air in the conference room froze instantly.

The fat boss, who had just been all smiles and smugness, suddenly froze.

He stared intently at Qin Zihao, who sat in the main seat with a cold expression, his eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.

He never expected that his kind words, sob stories, and concessions would not lead to a reconciliation, but rather to Qin Zihao's uncompromising and confrontational stance.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the fat boss's face instantly darkened, his expression became gloomy, and his tone turned completely cold.

"Mr. Qin, are you implying that you're dissatisfied with the Xie family's arrangements?"

A question tinged with obvious provocation brought the atmosphere to a freezing point.

The entire room fell silent.

All eyes were on Qin Zihao.

Especially those in the front row who had lined up with the Qin family early on, their hearts suddenly jumped, and they all broke out in a cold sweat.

This is a dead end, an unsolvable dilemma!

If Qin Zihao were to nod and admit his dissatisfaction with the Xie family's arrangements, those words would inevitably reach the ears of the Xie family's higher-ups without missing a single one.

At that time, the Xie family will lose face completely, and the suppression measures they just stopped will definitely be brought back, and may even be more severe.

However, if they deny it, apologize, and admit defeat, then the fact that the Xie family specifically agreed to allow upstream and downstream companies to cooperate normally with the Qin family, yet the Qin family still refuses to accept it, is tantamount to openly telling everyone:

The Qin family looked down on the Xie family's charity and still didn't take the Xie family seriously.

No matter how you answer, the fat boss can always find a flaw and use it as an opportunity to attack you.

In everyone's eyes, the only way to break the deadlock right now is to bow down and give the Xie family some face, accept the cooperation of these downstream companies again, and let this storm pass by easily.

Firstly, the Xie family's status and position are undeniable.

Secondly, the Qin family has just taken on a massive number of government projects, which are huge in scale and have a huge demand for materials. They really cannot do without the basic materials and supporting parts supplied by these downstream companies.

Giving in was the most rational choice for the Qin family.

Just when everyone assumed that Qin Zihao would inevitably compromise, a cold and arrogant snort suddenly echoed throughout the conference room.

"The Xie family? What are they? They dare to look up to my Qin family?"

The moment the words left his mouth, Qin Zihao felt his chest surge with blood and qi, his whole body burning with heat, and even his breathing became slightly rapid.

He forcefully suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, his expression remaining calm and composed, without the slightest ripple.

This was the first time he had imitated his grandfather Qin Zheng's speech, and that domineering attitude changed his mindset once again.

That air of a ruler who looked down upon all living beings had completely permeated his mind.

At this moment, his state of mind underwent a complete transformation.

An endless sense of pride and confidence welled up within him, and a faint aura of power emanated from his body.

The ambition of a tyrant has already begun to take shape.

He suddenly realized something.

This is the kind of demeanor that Grandpa wanted for the Qin family's leader, and it's also the direction he must gradually develop in the future.

Calm and composed, neither arrogant nor humble, even when facing powerful families, he remains proud and unyielding, exuding an aura of dominance that crushes everything.

The mood of everyone in the conference room was completely opposite to that of Qin Zihao.

Everyone was completely stunned, their pupils contracted sharply, and they stared intently at the boy in the main seat, their minds blank, unable to recover for a long time.

Especially the owners of those downstream companies, at this moment, looked at Qin Zihao as if he were a complete madman.

Last night, the Xie family clearly took the initiative to let the Qin family go.

To outsiders, this was already a sign that the Xie family had shown leniency, and the Qin family had gotten incredibly lucky.

Not only is the Qin family ungrateful, but they also dare to make arrogant remarks in public and openly provoke the Xie family.

The Qin family, a mere newly risen family, actually dares to challenge the Xie family, which has a terrifying foundation?

They've gone mad! Utterly gone mad!

In everyone's heart, only this one thought remained.

The fat boss reacted extremely quickly, a glint of ruthlessness and smugness flashing in his eyes. Without saying a word, he raised his hand and typed rapidly, sending Qin Zihao's extremely arrogant words verbatim to the Xie family's dedicated contact person.

The moment the message was successfully sent, a private call from Beijing came directly into the fat boss's phone.

A smug glint flashed in the fat boss's eyes. He immediately stood up, strode to the center of the front row of the conference room, and pressed the speakerphone button in front of everyone.

Instantly, a young man's voice, tinged with disdain, resounded throughout the conference room through the receiver.

"What? Young Master Qin, are you tired of living such a comfortable life?"

"Or perhaps they're just tired of living?"

"My Xie family kindly withdrew, sparing your Qin family's life. Do you really think my Xie family is afraid of your Qin family?"

The voice on the other end of the receiver sneered:

"If someone hadn't intervened and forcibly protected you, the Qin family would have completely disappeared from this world in a month or so."

Everyone present suddenly realized what was happening.

It turns out that the Xie family's withdrawal was not due to fear of the Qin family's resources, nor was it because the Qin family was strong enough to contend with the Xie family. It was simply because someone stepped in to exert pressure and forcibly protected the Qin family!

In an instant, most of the awe that had just arisen in everyone's hearts for the Qin family vanished.

After all that fuss, it turns out the Qin family had no trump card to stand up to the Xie family. They were only able to survive by relying on the protection of others.

The Xie family's operator's tone grew increasingly contemptuous as she continued coldly:

"I'm genuinely curious, where does your Qin family get the audacity to spout such arrogant and boastful words in front of my Xie family?"

"Now, I'm giving the Qin family one last chance. Apologize to the Xie family in public and admit your mistake, and I'll let bygones be bygones; I can pretend this never happened."

"Otherwise, from this day forward, my Xie family can easily cut off all resources, channels, and connections in Jiangnan with a mere wave of our hand. Your Qin family can forget about development and just wait for your demise."

A naked, ultimate threat, undisguised and utterly domineering.

The Xie family has that kind of influence.

The entire room was silent; you could hear a pin drop.

All eyes were fixed on Qin Zihao.

Jiang Lei and Guo Fan's faces instantly tightened, their eyes filled with deep worry, and their palms were slightly sweaty.

They thought they were just coming to Genting Highlands to report for duty, pick up their new jobs, and settle into their new roles.

To my utter surprise, on my very first day, I would be facing the legendary and terrifying Xie family.

Based on their conversation, even the slow-witted two of them had completely grasped the situation.

The Xie family is extremely powerful; they could have easily crushed the Qin family before. If it weren't for someone protecting them, the Qin family would have been destroyed long ago.

Qin Zihao's public confrontation has undoubtedly ignited the flames of war.

Zhou Erniu, sitting in the corner, was still leisurely holding his milk tea, taking a small sip.

He appeared calm and composed, but a faint trace of worry quietly crept into his dark eyes.

Why are they putting these little karaomis in front of such a terrifying boss right from the start?

Under the tense, suffocating gazes of everyone, Qin Zihao's lips curled into an extremely cold, mocking smile. His tone was calm, yet incredibly domineering.

"You think you're worthy to make my Qin family apologize to your Xie family?"
