Gale nodded when he saw Dean finally
understood.
“So, I will still go back to that problem. If
you were me, how would you solve this
issue?”
Dean thought for a while as he looked at
Gale’s calm face. He knew very well that
Gale had already decided what to do in his
heart.
This question seemed casual, but it was
actually an inspection.
Gale had no heirs, and he only adopted
many orphans like Dean until he was old.
That was why not a lot of people could call
Gale their grandpa.
Because of Gale’s deliberate training,
many of them were able to be
independent and take charge of matters
themselves.
Dean was originally one of the best, but
after he messed up the last matter, it
greatly reduced Gale’s good impression of
him.
Although he could still stay with Gale and
help him now, Dean could clearly feel that
Gale’s attitude towards him was not as
good as before.
This test was a rare opportunity.
Dean knew Gale too well. Gale was not
stingy in giving opportunities to others,
otherwise, he would not be able to be here
today, let alone be asked this question.
However, Gale had a very distinct
personality.
What he really needed was not a talented
successor, but a successor who
maintained a high degree of consistency
with him and could implement the
Haddock Chamber of Commerce’s
management philosophy even a hundred
years later.
Gale was too conceited. In his opinion, his
ideas and opinions were the most suitable
for the Haddock Chamber of Commerce, s
o he would not allow others to change
them.
Even if it was someone he cultivated, he
would not allow them to influence the management philosophy no matter how good the person was. It
just so happened that Dean was the best
candidate among the successors that Gale
had cultivated thus far.
That was why he could get a second chance.
Hence, in the face of this test, Dean’s answer could not indicate how he would solve the problem most
appropriately, instead, he needed to guess Gale’s attitude. If he guessed right, he would win. However,
if it was wrong, he might really be over.
It was a matter of life and death, so Dean did not dare to waste any time.
He took a deep breath and put himself in Gale’s shoes to think about the problem and weigh all the
pros and cons.
He did this for an extremely long time.
Dean did not say anything, and Gale did not rush him.
Just as Dean understood him, Gale also understood Dean well.
He was sure that Dean would realize what
he meant.
He did not mind the people below him
trying to figure out what he meant
because this was exactly what he wanted.
He was over eighty years old, so no matter
how energetic he was, he would still need t
o count his days. Moreover, over the past
two years, he had clearly felt that his
energy and physical condition were not as
good as before.
As his age and influence began to decline i
In the Haddock Chamber of Commerce,
factions separate from his own had begun
to appear.
Under the superposition of various
factors, the task of appointing his
successor had become something urgent
that Gale had to solve immediately.
Seven or eight minutes passed before
Dean finally spoke.
“I think we should go to Jasper.”
Upon hearing this, Gale did not show the
slightest expression and closed his eyes
slightly, hiding a hint of disappointment.
“Why?”
Faced with Gale’s question, Dean
continued, “What I am talking about is
the Haddock Chamber of Commerce, not
you, Grandpa.”
“Oh?”
Gale opened his eyes and looked at Dean
with a grin.
Dean bowed slightly to Gale, smiled, and
said, “The current situation is already
broken and crumpled. Wall Street is just
putting the pressure on Jasper through us.
“Although the Haddock Chamber of
Commerce is powerful, in the face of
international capital, we can only be
cannon fodder. Hence, it is absolutely
impossible that they are deliberately
targeting the Haddock Chamber of
Commerce.
“And what Jasper did was transfer the
pressure from Wall Street onto us and let u
s make this choice.
“When the pressure is on us, why can’t w
e pass it on to the next level?
“Many from the Haddock Chamber of
Commerce participated in the previous
economic forums. Now that everyone has
agreed to help each other, it’s only
reasonable for them to go to Jasper now
that they are under attack.”
When Dean said this, he paused slightly.
Then, he faced Gale, who was beginning t
o appear increasingly satisfied, and
continued, “And you can’t be the person
who’s going to talk to him, Grandpa,
because you are the Haddock Chamber of
Commerce and the Haddock Chamber of
Commerce is also you. Hence, as long as
you speak, no matter what you say, it will
become the will of the entire Haddock
Chamber of Commerce.
“Having said that, the one to speak can’t b
e the bosses of the most severely attacked
companies in the Chamber of Commerce.
To put it bluntly, they don’t have enough
weight.
“Therefore, I will be the most suitable
candidate.”
Upon hearing this, Gale laughed.
He pointed to Dean as he laughed and said, “Yes, very good.
“Since you got it right, then you should do it right away. Once it is done, you will be the next vice
president of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce.”
When Dean heard these words, his expression was full of uncontrollable excitement.
“Thank you, Grandpa.”
“This is what you deserve.”
Gale’s smile gradually diminished, and his eyes and expression became more serious. “I am letting you
know in advance that this will be the reward you will get. You will only get it once the matter at hand is
done well, otherwise, even if I forcefully appoint you, this position will be nothing but a name because
you will still have no contribution to the Haddock Chamber of Commerce.
“Only when you have really saved their lives and made a large enough contribution, will you wield true
power when you obtain this position. People will
respect you, and you will have the power to
rally supporters and influence others.”
“I will remember your teachings, Grandpa,” Dean said respectfully.
“Go and execute it now.”
Gale closed his eyes contentedly as if the violent mood swings just now had consumed too much of his
energy. He waved his hand lazily and said, “It does not matter whether you go to meet him in person or
communicate over the phone. It does not matter what method you use as the process does not matter.
What the Chamber of Commerce and I want to see i s the result.”
Dean did not say anymore when he heard those words. After bowing slightly, he left the room.
Gale’s brows trembled and a meaningful smile appeared on his face when he heard the door closing.
Dean got into the car that had already been prepared at the door after exiting the manor.
“Go to Nauritus City right now.”
