"Pursuant to the board of directors' vote, I hereby announce that effective immediately, Mrs. Pei Yunxi is the new chairperson of the board,"
Takagi Jiro was the first to stand up, leading the round of applause.
"Clap, clap, clap..."
In the grand conference room, enthusiastic applause suddenly erupted.
Whether sincere or not, every face was beaming with a bright smile, congratulating the newly appointed chairperson.
Outside.
On the building of the magnificent edifice.
The letters K.E glittered brilliantly.
It was hard to imagine that this teetering, once despondent luxury empire now had such a cheerful atmosphere inside.
Pei Yunxi did not show any stage fright, maintaining a composed demeanor as she sat in the seat formerly occupied by Takagi Gentarou, delivering her prepared "lines" calmly and methodically.
The applause continued.
"Joe, the company is counting on you from now on,"
After the meeting, Takagi Jiro said with profound meaning.
