The meeting had progressed to this point and, according to the agenda, it should have ended already.
Before adjourning the meeting, Wang Ye casually asked, "Does anyone have anything else to say? If not, this will conclude the meeting…"
Before his remarks could fade away, a committee member raised his hand. "Chairman, I have something to discuss."
Wang Ye nodded in acknowledgement, not paying much attention.
He wasn't very familiar with that committee member, knowing only that this was Alexander, a member from the second faction, another commonplace name.
Alexander seemed to be in his forties, tall and burly, with brown hair, a vibrant face, and a predisposition to smiling before even speaking, making him appear quite amiable.
He apologized beforehand, "I'm sorry, normally I should inform the chairman about this matter and then bring it up in the meeting. But it happened so suddenly, I only knew about it just before the meeting, hence I had to raise it as an urgent issue."
