Chapter 1066: Chapter 1055: A Good Dog!
After Lv Wenlong respectfully finished his words, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
After a while, a hoarse voice tinged with slight anger ca from the other end: “What went wrong?”
“Master Hong… it’s not that I didn’t try hard, it’s just that little bastard is too ruthless.”
Lv Wenlong poured out his grievances over the phone, complaining incessantly: “I was just two days late on that contract paynt, and he ca straight to my door.”
“Not only was my company’s security team seriously injured, but even I was badly hurt. I don’t know how long I’ll have to stay in the hospital this ti.”
“From your voice, I don’t hear any signs of injury.”
Hong An’s cold voice ca from the other end of the phone, sarcastically comnting on Lv Wenlong before saying impatiently: “Alright, I understand. Don’t call anymore in the future.”
The call was hung up, leaving an awkward and stiff smile on Lv Wenlong’s face.
“Damn old man, when the day cos that you kick the bucket, watch how I deal with your useless son!”
Lv Wenlong cursed bitterly.
Even though Hong An didn’t give him any respect, in the current situation, he could only endure this humiliation.
After all, the Hong Family is a powerful century-old family in Dragon City, and he, coming from an underground organization background, had gradually climbed into the upper circles of Dragon City with his ruthlessness and cunning over the years.
But compared to those true aristocratic families, he still had many shortcomings.
…
In the office of the Vice President at the Dragon City of Comrce, Ma Jianguo had just approved a docunt and was closing his eyes for a short rest when the red phone on his desk suddenly rang.
Ma Jianguo glanced at the vibrating red phone, his heart skipping a beat.
He had two phones on his desk, one red and one black. The black one was an external line, while the red was an internal line.
Anyone able to reach him through the internal line was bound to be either rich or powerful, forcing him to put his mind to responding carefully.
After the call was connected and he heard Hong An’s voice on the other side, Ma Jianguo feigned an open-hearted laugh: “Chairman Hong, amidst your busy schedule, you managing to call is truly touching.”
“Hehe, Vice President Ma, don’t be too modest. You are now the Vice President of the Dragon City of Comrce, with an unparalleled status in Dragon City’s business circle. Our Hong Family still has to rely on Vice President Ma for many matters.”
“Not at all, not at all. Chairman Guo always speaks highly of Chairman Hong. All the enterprises under you are model taxpayers; how could anything trouble ?”
“Vice President Ma, you’re too polite. At the mont, I do have a matter that I’d like to trouble you with.”
Hong An paused for a mont, then said aningfully: “Chairman Guo is already quite old and probably has a year or two left before retirent. After he leaves, I’m quite optimistic about Vice President Ma for the position of President of the Dragon City of Comrce.”
“What does Chairman Hong need?”
Ma Jianguo instinctively wanted to make an excuse about being busy and quickly hang up, but after Hong An’s words, his mind instantly beca more active.
The position of President of the business chamber!
An opportunity for advancent seed to be right in front of him. Ma Jianguo, who had climbed to the position of Vice President after a long struggle in the business chamber, had long been coveting the president’s position.
But Guo Qingtian was part of the Ning Family’s peripheral forces in Dragon City and always followed their lead.
As long as the Ning Family held their position, regardless of whether Guo Qingtian retired or not, Ma Jianguo would not have a chance to even consider the presidency.
However, after Hong An’s words, Ma Jianguo was instantly tempted. If he had the Hong Family backing him.
When Guo Qingtian retires due to old age, the position of President of the Dragon City of Comrce indeed seed within reach!
“Chairman Hong, you’re kidding. Chairman Guo’s working ability is exceptional, I could never compare. You ntioned earlier there was sothing you needed for, is there any way I could assist?”
“Haha.”
On the other end, Hong An was internally sneering. He knew that Ma Jianguo’s courteous words ant that, after his prompt, Ma Jianguo was quite clearly coveting the presidency.
Without exposing it, he chuckled and said: “It’s not a big deal, really. In Dragon City, there’s a small company conflicting with a business under our Hong Family. Chengtong has been complaining in my ear repeatedly, wanting to teach this small company a lesson.”
“A small company? Please continue, Chairman Hong.”
Ma Jianguo’s eyes lit up instantly. If Hong An intended to use him as a pawn against the Ning Family directly, he definitely wouldn’t have the guts for it.
But upon hearing that Hong An seed to rely want to use the Chamber’s ans to resolve a small company dispute, it seed worth a try.
“That company is a branch of the Xu Corporation in our Dragon City, the general manager is Ning Fan.”
Hong An concisely explained Ning Fan’s background, then added: “If Vice President Ma could quickly address the illegal activities of this enterprise, with your capabilities, further advancent is not just an empty promise.”
“Here I wish Vice President Ma great success.”
Hong An left a courteous remark and then hung up the phone.
Ma Jianguo bid farewell to Hong An with a laugh, but the instant he put down the phone, his face fell imdiately!
Xu Corporation, General Manager Ning Fan!
No one was more familiar with the na Ning Fan than Ma Jianguo!
Whenever he thought back to Ning Fan’s terrifying thods, Ma Jianguo felt a constant chill running through him.
And now, Hong An actually wanted him to deal with Ning Fan; this was even harder to accept than charging headfirst against the Ning Family.
In the office, cigarette after cigarette burned, Ma Jianguo flicked off the long accumulation of ash, letting out a deep sigh.
He had considered using the Hong Family’s montum to crush Ning Fan and regain his freedom.
But after long contemplation, the cautious Ma Jianguo abandoned this highly risky plan.
The phone was dialed again, but this ti he used his own mobile phone.
“General Manager Ning, it’s Ma Jianguo.”
Ma Jianguo said with a fawning smile: “How have you been, Mr. Ning?”
“Get to the point.”
Ning Fan’s voice on the other side was cold, showing no intention of exchanging pleasantries with him.
Not taking offense, Ma Jianguo looked out the window and lowered his voice, “Mr. Ning, I just received a call from Hong An, the head of the Hong Family. He wants my help to deal with your company.”
“The Hong Family?”
There was a hint of doubt in Ning Fan’s voice. After a mont, he asked: “Have you heard the na Hong Chengtong?”
“He’s Chairman Hong’s only son!”
Ma Jianguo responded in a low voice.
“Alright, I got it. Well done.”
Ning Fan’s laughter ca through the phone: “Good dog.”
