The glint of a golden dragon statue reflected from stained glass windows within a spacious Oriental study as a man in formal eastern attire entered. A man of great stature sat behind a large rectangular desk in the far end of the room while he meticulously wrote something on a sheet of paper.

Xi Weidong took the report before reading it. He put his pen down momentarily to give a short look at it. "Very well. Nothing seems to be of concern.. just another ordinary day in the market I suppose."
Shortly after, the door to the chairman's home office slightly opened. A young boy barely out of his early childhood peeked through the small opening shyly, making sure his father had the time to attend to him.
