Chapter 324: Tell you to get lost

At 8 pm, Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin arrived at the headquarters building of Tang Dynasty Bank, where Zhou Ming, Tang Ran, and Li Cheng were already waiting. ≧

Tang Jingsheng had barely entered the door when he fired a barrage of questions at Zhou Ming: 'What the hell's going on? Why are the bank directors calling an internal board meeting at this late hour? Have they found something? Is there some kind of conspiracy afoot? Or maybe there's been a change in the situation... And hello, Mr. Li Cheng.'

Facing these questions, Zhou Ming first asked him to sit down, and then told him, 'In fact, these questions of yours boil down to one question. You know this Mr. Li Cheng, so let him answer them for you.'

Li Cheng then told Tang Jingsheng that someone was trying to trace their funds. Zhou Ming had mentioned this to Tang Jingsheng on the phone before, but after listening to Li Cheng's full explanation, Tang Jingsheng still felt the seriousness of the situation.

"No matter how much you plan, you still miss this point! If it was just Tang An and Wood, even if you add the powerful Wood family behind them, I don't think our capital transfer would be discovered so easily, but we forgot about the real mastermind behind it all.' Tang Jingsheng said helplessly, and then asked, 'So does that mean that our plan will most likely be exposed within three days?'

Zhou Ming shook his head and replied, 'Uncle Tang, you're being a bit too downhearted. According to Cheng's intelligence, the other party can at most trace the flow of funds, but that doesn't mean they can definitely connect it to our plan.'

Tang Jingsheng still shook his head and said, 'I believe that, but even if they can't guess our plan, they will definitely suspect and be prepared when they learn about our large capital transfers. After all, it is rare for Tang Bank to hold an internal board meeting at this time, which is already similar to a family meeting. This is impossible unless something very important has happened.'

This point is very clear to Zhou Ming. Those who can become internal directors of Tang Bank are all important members of the Tang family and also major shareholders of Tang Bank. To a certain extent, in terms of hierarchy, these internal board meetings of Tang Bank are even more important than the clan meetings at the ancestral hall. After all, Tang Bank is the real core of the family.

And now, just as they had received news that someone was tracing the flow of funds, Tang An urgently requested an internal board meeting that night, which could not help but arouse suspicion.

'So I think they may not know exactly what we're going to do, but they definitely can guess that we're going to do something. In other words, we've already spooked the snake, you know what I mean?' Tang Jingsheng said.

"I understand, but so what?' Zhou Ming nodded and then asked in return.

Tang Jingsheng was momentarily stunned. He obviously did not expect Zhou Ming to ask such a question in return. Then Tang Ran also followed Zhou Ming's lead and said, 'Yes, if they know, then so what? Are we going to be afraid and not attend the meeting because of this?'

"Of course that's not what I mean. I just feel that since such a big change has occurred, we should plan first...'

Tang Jingsheng tried hard to explain something, but Zhou Ming interrupted him and said, 'Uncle Tang, plans can never keep up with changes, and plans should only be made when we have a full grasp of the situation should be done. But now we don't know how much information the other party already has, nor do we know their plans. It would be unrealistic for us to formulate a plan based on groundless speculation here.'

Zhou Ming concluded, 'So I think we'd better let go of our ideas and go to the meeting without any baggage, see what they really want to do, and then make a decision.'

In response to Zhou Ming's idea, Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin glanced at each other, both of them seeing surprise in each other's eyes. Although they could understand what Zhou Ming was saying, and indeed there were great hidden dangers in formulating a plan based on one's own wild guesses, could they at least come up with a few general directions? For example, if they guess what countermeasure to use, and if they don't, what countermeasure to use, they can wait until they are on site to think about it, and that will give them more time!

But it seems that Zhou Ming has always relied on this kind of ability to change the situation on the spot. Up to now, they can only rely on Zhou Ming's extraordinary intuition, because they have no other way.

Ming Zhou then arrived in the conference room with Ran Tang and Jingsheng Tang, Huiyin Tang. This time, since it was an internal board meeting of the Tang Bank, and there was already someone with such a sensitive identity as Ming Zhou, person with such a sensitive identity, it was obviously unwise to add Li Cheng. Therefore, Li Cheng very consciously left after the meeting and went with Lin Muqing and Tong Gang to do their own thing.

After all, they had gone to all the trouble of transferring so much money out of the offshore account and even went to Hong Kong City to go through the money laundering process, not to put it in the bank to earn interest, but to do something big!

When they arrived in the meeting room, Tang Jingming and the other core members of the Tang family had already arrived, as had Tang An. When Zhou Ming opened the door, he could see An Tang Jingming was whispering to someone else, talking about something. It was hard to guess what it was from their smug expressions and the frowning, brooding looks of the others, but it was certainly not good.

"I never thought that this guy would be allowed to attend such an internal board meeting. Does it seem like the ancestral clan meeting has really tacitly accepted him as a member of the Tang family? But even so, he doesn't own any shares in the Tang Bank and is not an internal director. What right does he have to be here?' Tang An pointed at Zhou Ming and said, 'So now, in my capacity as Vice Chairman of the Tang Bank, I order you to get out of here immediately!'

Tang An then moved the crowd: 'Everyone say, let this riffraff from nowhere get out of our Tang family meeting room, okay?'

Tang An's words were echoed by the others, who all hissed at him. Tang Ran was very dissatisfied and said, 'How can you do that? And Tang An, you are only the vice chairman of Tang Bank, what makes you give orders here?'

Tang An, however, folded his arms and made an innocent expression, saying, 'I'm sorry, Madam Chairman, I wouldn't dare to give orders in front of you. I didn't give any orders, I was just asking for everyone's opinion. Is that not allowed? Then you are being dictatorial!'

Tang Ran wanted to argue back, but Zhou Ming said, 'Of course it's fine to seek everyone's opinions, and we fully support that. After all, this is a meeting, and it's always important to be open-minded.'

At this point, Zhou Ming suddenly changed his tone and said, 'But soliciting opinions does not mean deceiving. If you solicit opinions with a deceptive attitude, of course it won't work.'

'But I didn't deceive you, you're the one who deceived us!' Tang An said to Zhou Ming with clenched teeth, especially the phrase 'you're the one who deceived us', obviously still angry about the last shareholders' meeting.

Zhou Ming laughed lightly in response, saying, 'Of course you deceived me. You said you were the vice chairman of Tangren Bank, but if I remember correctly, a vice chairman who is dismissed, is also not entitled to attend this internal board meeting, let alone seek advice here.'

Tang An frowned: 'It is true that there is such a rule, but the problem is that I have not been removed from office!'

 "That's just what you think." Zhou Ming turned to Tang Ran and asked, 'Director Tang, is this person going to be removed from office?'

In response to Zhou Ming's question, Tang Ran said very cooperatively, 'Of course, this is the first thing I need to do here today. Since Tang An colluded with the Daewood family to plot against the Tang family and do harm to Tang's Bank, I propose that he be removed from his position as Vice Chairman of Tang's Bank!'

As Tang Ran finished speaking, Zhou Ming said to Tang An, 'Sir, to borrow your words, can you now get out of this meeting room?'

Upon hearing Zhou Ming's words, Tang An was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He never imagined that both Zhou Ming and Tang Ran could do such a thing, directly in front of so many family members, and just announced that he was revoking his own position as vice chairman. Wasn't this simply treating the company's rules and regulations and the family's rules like child's play? How could anyone do such a thing? It was outrageous!

But the other party's demands were reasonable, so Tang An pointed his finger at Zhou Minghe and Tang Ran, and in the end he could only grit his teeth and say 'shameless'.

As for the others, they were dumbfounded as soon as they heard Tang Ran's words. They couldn't figure out why Tang Ran wanted to abolish a vice chairman at the first opportunity. They didn't know whether to say that she was decisive and domineering or that she was childish.

But whether it's domineering or childish, what cannot be said is that their move was really direct. They kicked Tang An in the groin, then pinned him to the ground and rubbed him around at will, and he was completely helpless.

Of course, the meeting couldn't really end on such a bad note. It would be good to have the usual beating around the ears, so Tang Jingsheng then came out as a peacemaker and said, 'Some jokes are just fine, everyone shouldn't take it too seriously. After all, there have been so many recent incidents, and the atmosphere here is so depressing. A joke can really lighten the mood. Just don't take it seriously.'

Tang Jingsheng said this, and Zhou Ming immediately chimed in, 'Of course, I was just joking along with Mr. Tang An, right?'

Facing the question thrown at him by Zhou Ming, Tang An really wanted to say 'Fuck you' but knew he absolutely couldn't say it because if he did, he'd be a dick. Tang An really proposed to withdraw his own position, could he resist? If anyone is to blame, it is them for being so shameless, and Tang Jingsheng for conniving at this. How could they be allowed to joke about this!

"Of course it's a joke. Zhou Ming is a friend of the Tang family. How could I invite a friend out?'

Tang An said these words with clenched teeth, making his lungs about to explode. However, he then smiled, thinking viciously in his heart: Zhou Ming Tang You bitches, I'll let you gloat for now, but I'm afraid you don't know that I know your secret already, do you? Just wait until I expose you, and see how you'll respond then. We'll see who the real winner is then!
