Chapter 111 - 111 Stealing Credit

111 Stealing Credit

Yao Ziyang secretly asked around and found out that Yao Zizhou’s actions were all for Ming Liuyi.

The three million that he had taken from Yao Ziyang was also because of Ming Liuyi, and now he had gone to rescue her because she was trapped there.

Yao Ziyang had always thought of Ming Liuyi as a burden to Yao Zizhou, but with Yao Zizhou valuing her so much, Yao Ziyang had no choice but to treat her with respect.

Yao Ziyang’s vicious eyes looked around as he thought of a way to take the credit.

On the second day, the Yao Corporation’s stock price rose rapidly as expected! The voices calling for the president to return were getting more and more enthusiastic!

At the same time, a new trending topic appeared on Weibo.

[Cai Rixi’s words have warmed time.]

Below, there were many paid comments.

[Thank you, Cai Rixi, for warming up everyone during the disaster!]

Cai Rixi replied below.

[I don’t want to take up your public resources during this critical period. Thank you to the brave heroes who fought on the front lines. Thank you to the Yao Corporation. You are the best, Yao Ziyang!]

After replying, she posted again on Weibo.

[I almost forgot to introduce everyone. Yao Ziyang, my boyfriend, the Vice President of the Yao Corporation!]

A trending topic about Cai Rixi appeared again.

[The heiress of the Cai family and the Vice President of the Yao Corporation have formed a strong alliance.]

All the netizens who did not know the truth started to comment after seeing that.

[The Vice President of a kind enterprise, and a beautiful authoress. I’m definitely going to bet on this power couple!]

[She’s so talented that we’ve almost forgotten that beautiful Cai Rixi is also the daughter of a rich family!]

[Fellow fans, I just found out that Vice President Yao Ziyang has done a lot of charities in the past!]

[It’s so romantic!]

The hot search that Yao Ziyang and Cai Rixi bought this time successfully diverted everyone’s attention, making everyone feel that the rescue of the Yao Corporation was ordered by Yao Ziyang!

Cai Rixi also made use of this opportunity to gain popularity, making the sales of her new book reach a new peak!

Although Yao Zizhou was still the president, since he was injured, Yao Gui had been the one making all the major decisions in the company. The rest of the unimportant decisions were left to Yao Ziyang.

Even though Yao Zizhou had woken up, he still could not see, so it was impossible for him to go back to work. But this time, Yao Zizhou had only used a small amount of money to raise the Yao Corporation’s stock prices and the company’s profits for the final quarter. The Board of Directors was now eager for Yao Zizhou to return to his job.

After all, when Yao Zizhou had not been around, Yao Gui’s decisions were more conservative and the profits were stable. The Yao Corporation needed to grow, they needed new opportunities and turning points.

However, when Yao Ziyang and Cai Rixi started trending, and with the commenters that Yao Ziyang had bought, the Board of Directors immediately changed their minds.

Now that Yao Ziyang was trending, he could not correct the netizens’ mistake. Would that not be like showing everyone how he slapped himself in the face?

They were all members of the Yao Corporation, and as long as it was beneficial to the company and the stock prices, whether it was Yao Zizhou or Yao Ziyang, it was the same.

There were even people who said that Yao Ziyang had a good reputation and was in the limelight, so he should be suitable to take a promotion, or at least be the face of the Yao Corporation. After all, Yao Zizhou was really not suitable to attend all business events.

Additionally, before anyone realized it, Yao Ziyang had sent a “Thank You” letter to all the lower-level employees.

[Thank you all for your support to the Yao Corporation. Without your hard work, the company would not have achieved what it has today. From now on, we will continue to move forward hand in hand. -Yao Ziyang.]

Although it was just a “Thank You” letter, every word in the letter felt like an inauguration speech, as if Yao Ziyang had already married a fair, rich, and beautiful woman, and was now the president of a company, reaching the peak of his life.

And as expected, someone quickly spread the letter and pushed the matter to a climax!

…

In the villa, Yao Zizhou was listening to his secretary’s follow-up report.

Regarding Yao Ziyang stealing the credit and the Board of Directors’s attention, Yao Zizhou was very calm.

The business world was a battlefield, full of lies and schemes. Yao Zizhou had long been accustomed to these dirty tricks.

“He’s not qualified to be the president yet,” Yao Zizhou sneered, “but he can make some decisions.”

Yao Zizhou thought for a moment before he said, “It just so happens that the project in Xinghai City is a rather delicate issue. Just throw it to him and let him have fun.”

After the meeting, Yao Zizhou walked out of the study with a relaxed expression. As for the rest of the matters, there was no need to rush, he would take it one step at a time.
