“Dong, dong, dong! Boss, are you awake?” Zhang Guangyao cautiously knocked on Zhou Chao’s door.
“Click!” The door suddenly swung open, and Zhang Guangyao saw Zhou Chao brushing his teeth.
Zhou Chao gestured for them to sit for a while, as he was almost done with his morning routine.
After about ten minutes, Zhou Chao finished getting ready. He changed his clothes and walked out of the bedroom, holding a file bag in his hand.
Zhou Chao looked at the prepared team in front of him and handed the file bag to Zhang Guangyao. He then said, “Let’s go.”
Yesterday, Zhang Guangyao and his team had brought two cars to Xiangshan. As they left the hotel, Zhang Guangyao directed Zhou Chao to one of the Mercedes-Benz cars. The two cars then left the hotel and headed for Xiangshan Film and Television City.
When they arrived at the film and television city, it was already 9:30 in the morning. Zhou Chao got out of the car and looked at Zhang Guangyao and his team.
“The rest of the work is up to you guys. If you have any issues, just give me a call.”
“Yes, boss!” Zhang Guangyao then took the file bag Zhou Chao had handed him and led the other five people towards the office area of the film and television city.
As Zhou Chao watched their backs, he muttered to himself, “I wonder which of them might act desperate.”
He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and thought about the various challenges they might face. Unconsciously, the cigarette burned down to the filter in his hand.
“Let’s see how Zhang Guangyao handles this,” Zhou Chao said as he opened the door to his car.
Time passed by, and nearly two hours had gone by since Zhang Guangyao and his team entered. Zhou Chao looked at the clear sky and had a good idea of what had happened.
He got out of the car, locked the door, and headed towards the film and television city.
This time, Zhou Chao didn’t buy a ticket and walked directly into the film and television city.
“Sir, didn’t you buy a ticket?” A security guard quickly stopped Zhou Chao.
“Okay, Boss!” Zhang Guangyao looked back at Zhou Chao’s side, where Yu Fang was standing, and then turned and walked away.
As for Yu Fang, who was standing next to Zhou Chao, she seemed stunned. She widened her eyes and looked at Zhou Chao in disbelief.
“Madam, what’s wrong? Are you surprised?”
“You... you’re actually the boss? You’re so young... how is that possible?” At this moment, Xie Yu Fang felt conflicted, wondering if her previous words might have left a negative impression on the boss.
“Didn’t you hear the person in charge just call me ‘boss’? Is there anything you don’t believe?” Hearing his words, Yu Fang silently nodded and didn’t say anything more.
Zhou Chao understood the situation and didn’t press further. He found a chair, sat down, and patiently waited for Zhang Guangyao to report on their work.
After about 15 minutes, Zhang Guangyao returned with a file, brimming with enthusiasm.
“Boss, we’ve compiled all the statistics. We’ve basically identified the embezzled money from the leaders at the film and television city. Here’s the detailed list. Please take a look, Boss!”
Zhou Chao nodded and took the file from Zhang Guangyao, then opened it to review the contents.
*Smack!* He slammed the file onto the table, his expression turning even colder.
“All this evidence, can we really get these scoundrels punished?”
Zhang Guangyao pondered for a moment before replying, “Boss, this is all related to their past embezzlement. It’s not directly tied to us now. However, we can hand over the relevant documents to their companies and let them deal with it on their own.”
Zhou Chao remained silent, tapping his fingers lightly on the table. Zhang Guangyao stood beside him, also in silence.
“Alright, I’ll leave this to you to handle. Also, issue a notice to dismiss the entire leadership team and hold them accountable. You’ve done well in handling this situation. You’ll be in charge of the film and television city for now. Just don’t follow the same path as your predecessor.”
“Boss, you can count on me!” Zhang Guangyao’s smile deepened at the boss’s words.
“Good. Now, plan things out here, and I’ll take my leave. You can start your work today.” After saying that, Zhou Chao walked towards the exit. As he passed by Xie Yu Fang, he nodded to her lightly.
Watching Zhou Chao walk away, Zhang Guangyao clapped his hands to get everyone’s attention in the office area.
“Let’s start our meeting!”
