Chapter 339 - 262: The Return of God Su (Part 2)
Speaking, he suddenly paused, then said: "Quickly compile a report summarizing the organization’s current status for me, keep it as concise as possible, and make sure to do it quickly. Once compiled, wait for me outside Conference Room One."
The secretary had never seen Zuo Shuanghui in such a hurry before and was stunned for a moment before responding:
"Okay, I’ll go right now."
Finishing his words, he glanced again at Zuo Shuanghui, who looked somewhat tense, and after issuing his instructions, left the office in large strides.
In the secretary’s eyes, Zuo Shuanghui was the most powerful person in the world. He had never seen this expression of tension on Zuo Shuanghui’s face before.
"Why is the president so urgent, is he going to meet some important figure? But why does he need to summarize the organization’s situation, who is he reporting to?"
"It’s impossible, I must be overthinking."
The secretary, who had joined the Dawn Association for eight years, had never interacted with Su Xin, although like ordinary people he knew Su Xin’s big name and status, but after all, Su Xin hadn’t appeared for ten years, he simply didn’t associate it with Su Xin.
He merely assumed Su Xin had little affiliation with Dawn Association, since Su Xin held no position in Dawn Association, only having once stood by Dawn Association during its establishment.
On the surface, Su Xin indeed had no relationship with Dawn Association, at most, there was only a certain friendship.
Harboring intense curiosity, the secretary returned to his post, and as Zuo Shuanghui requested, he quickly organized the data and information.
Being able to rise to the position of president’s secretary within a few years, his capability was considered top-notch worldwide, absolutely qualifying as the best in secretarial work, organizing data being second nature to him.
Within a few minutes, he had compiled the data and arrived outside Conference Room One to wait.
Soon, he was surprised to see several vice presidents of the Dawn Association decision-making group, as long as they were at headquarters, all coming quickly, not even responding to his greetings, and successively entering Conference Room One.
He stood on the other side of the conference room doors, unable to see who was seated inside.
However, even as his curiosity reached its peak, he dared not sneak a glance because he knew that curiosity could sometimes be deadly.
But judging by the successive arrival of several presidents and the solemn expression on each president’s face, he finally associated it with that great figure who hadn’t appeared in public for many years —
"Could it be...Su Shen has appeared?"
Upon the thought, a tremor seized the secretary’s heart, a flush of excitement spread across his face, and the folder he hugged in his arms instinctively tightened.
"If Su Shen has appeared, then everything makes sense, the president and the vice presidents, no matter how high their status, no matter how great their power, in front of Su Shen, these are all just fleeting clouds."
"No wonder the president was so tense..."
"By the way, now that Su Shen has shown up, the Financial Tycoon Alliance will become powerless, and it won’t be long before they are crushed..."
While the secretary’s emotions surged.
Inside Conference Room One.
Su Xin was also seeing the few decision-making group members of Dawn Association after a long absence.
"You all have aged somewhat."
Looking at the obviously older decision-making group of five people, Su Xin gently sighed.
Before he left, he had implanted twenty Life Talismans in everyone, Life Talismans absorb life force usually to quickly heal injuries, but this life force cannot delay aging.
In terms of these middle-aged people between thirty to fifty years old, ten years is indeed a very long time, sufficient to etch clear marks of time on each person’s face.
Everyone had noticeable changes.
Only Su Xin himself remained unchanged, still maintaining a handsome visage of about twenty years old.
However, regarding others’ aging issues, Su Xin currently had no solution, nor did he intend to solve it, birth, aging, sickness, and death are the norm of human existence, using Life Talismans to resolve accidental death risks was already a significant blessing, unnecessary to shelter everyone too well.
The power hierarchy shouldn’t be rigid.
Except for himself.
Su Xin smiled and asked: "Haven’t been back for a long time, how has the Dawn Association developed recently?"
On his left, Zuo Shuanghui said:
"Su Shen, I had the secretary compile a simple report..."
"No need, just briefly explain."
"...Alright."
Immediately, Zuo Shuanghui started introducing the current state of Dawn Association, incidentally giving a rough outline of the current world pattern, allowing Su Xin to have a basic understanding of world changes.
Afterward, Su Xin lifted a hand to stop Zuo Shuanghui’s report, and casually smiled:
"Alright, the organization’s development is quite fine, I’m planning to steer the leadership myself, President Zuo, starting today, hand over your power back to me, step down and rest for a few years, look at how old you’ve become..."
Upon hearing Su Xin’s words, the five present were all stunned, especially Zuo Shuanghui himself, frozen in place for several seconds.
Yet, facing Su Xin’s command, he showed no attachment to power and replied:
"Understood!"
The over-ten-year experience in wielding power indeed made him taste the perks of authority, during this period gaining a lot of benefits from it, especially in the past few years, the Dawn Association becoming undisputedly the world’s top organization, with Su Xin above him absent for long periods, others recognized him as the most powerful person.
He thoroughly enjoyed it.
But he always remembered that everything he had was granted by Su Xin, not entirely out of loyalty but mainly because he knew Su Xin’s power was unparalleled, Su Xin’s capability was inescapable.
No matter the extent of his power, affluence, or influence, before the invincible Su Xin, they were like bubbles.
Therefore, no matter the reluctance to power and misunderstanding of Su Xin’s decision, he could only obediently accept Su Xin’s orders.
He felt, it must be because Su Xin hadn’t appeared for a while, worried he’d be blinded by power, using such a manner to admonish him.
Thus, he dare not question the order at all.
The other presidents also stiffened internally, comprehending the implications of Su Xin’s action, their inflating desire for power over the years surprisingly subsiding significantly at this moment.
They believed, Su Xin was reminding them that their power was granted by him, can be given anytime, and can be revoked anytime.
Indeed, that was Su Xin’s notion, also using this task to admonish everyone.
Nevertheless, he wasn’t inclined to care too much, regardless of how people cling to power or exploit it for personal gain, he was indifferent, as long as it didn’t affect his command execution or violate his principles, it was acceptable.
Power and wealth, these he viewed as transient clouds, he didn’t value them at all.
"The system hasn’t prompted, is it because power hasn’t formally transferred? Or hasn’t genuinely reflected the change in power?"
Su Xin slightly furrowed his brows, after briefly asking about some organizational circumstances, he sent everyone away, leaving only Zuo Shuanghui.
After a simple exchange, both proceeded to Zuo Shuanghui’s president office.
While passing through the office area, someone spotted Su Xin’s appearance and gasped in astonishment, soon everyone knew Su Xin had appeared.
The two arrived at the office one after the other.
The secretary also closely followed behind.
After a simple handover, Su Xin asked Zuo Shuanghui to pack up his things and leave directly.
This scenario left the secretary in shock and awe.
And shocked many in the office area, whispering among themselves about what transpired.
Someone vaguely guessed that Zuo Shuanghui might have been dismissed, but this guess was too audacious to utter, even they themselves couldn’t believe it.
Inside the office.
Su Xin instructed the secretary casually:
"Later, send out an internal announcement, starting today, President Zuo Shuanghui is dismissed, currently I’m managing the organization’s affairs personally."
Upon hearing this, the secretary’s heart trembled.
He never expected that the long-absent Su Xin would immediately dismiss the president upon appearing, letting him pack up and leave.
Just a few minutes ago, Zuo Shuanghui was still the most powerful and influential figure in the world.
A few minutes later, with a single word from Su Xin, the aura surrounding Zuo Shuanghui vanished.
"Is this the stature of Su Shen?"
The secretary was taken aback, quickly bowing in response: "Understood!"
