Chapter 210: Breaking the Deadlock

A storm erupted in Beijing’s business circles when a prominent figure of the Capital Club was found dead within the club’s premises. The news swept through the entire business world like a hurricane…

Upon receiving the news, Xiao Yufan was deeply shaken. He felt as if he had overlooked something, or perhaps everything was just too coincidental, so much so that he couldn’t help but suspect someone had orchestrated it behind the scenes.

Xiao Yufan firmly believed in one thing—Tian Xuan would never deceive him. Since Tian Xuan hadn’t delivered a fatal blow, Xiao Yufan was left wondering who had actually done it. The entire situation seemed rather strange.

“As the saying goes, meet soldiers with generals and floods with earth; for now, I can only take things one step at a time…”

Xiao Yufan mused inwardly. He believed the Capital Club wouldn’t pin this incident on him directly. As long as they didn’t exert significant pressure on Huihuang, there shouldn’t be too many further complications.

With a strong leadership team and solid financial backing, Huihuang’s development had no significant internal concerns. Therefore, Xiao Yufan wasn’t worried. He also understood why his grandfather had sent Team Tian to Beijing—most likely to assist him in resolving issues that couldn’t be tackled purely through business strategies.

Inside Huihuang’s conference room sat the company’s true senior executives. Compared to just half a month ago, each of them now carried a greater sense of confidence on their faces. Indeed, the company’s growth had exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Watching the familiar faces take their seats one by one, Xiao Yufan’s smile grew warmer. He saw and appreciated every individual’s effort, knowing that it was precisely this persistence that had pulled Huihuang out of its slump.

“I’m not some bringer of death or misfortune, so why so formal? Today, I’ve gathered you all here simply to discuss Huihuang’s future development strategy. After all, brainstorming together is faster than me thinking alone!”

Noticing the slightly awkward atmosphere, Xiao Yufan smiled gently, easing the tension in the room. He stretched lazily and leaned back against his chair.

“Now, since no one seems to want to start, let me take the lead. Most of our internal issues are nearly resolved. The next step is to break through the external barriers—monopolies formed by other companies!”

Ma Teng’s position within Huihuang was no less influential than that of the former manager, Huang Tao. The growth of Tengfan Enterprise could be described as legendary. That alone was enough to prove Ma Teng’s exceptional management capabilities.

“If this stalemate remains unbroken, Huihuang’s development will face significant constraints, and the company will eventually find itself in a very awkward position…”

Yu Yihan tightened her fingers slightly, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, adding a touch of charming grace to her beauty. As a beautiful executive, her opinion often carried more weight than many others’. As soon as she spoke, nods of agreement rippled through the room. Xiao Yufan could only smile faintly.

Xiao Yufan naturally understood this point very clearly. After years of stagnation, Huihuang had missed many opportunities. If they couldn’t break through the economic barriers formed by Beijing’s business circles, the company would continue its decline—even without interference from the Capital Club.

“What Huihuang lacks now is a medium, a way to spread awareness of our transformation. Although many have noticed Huihuang, they are merely watching from the sidelines. Only by elevating Huihuang to greater heights can we make people re-recognize its potential!”

As everyone was contemplating how to break the deadlock, a young man suddenly stood up from a corner of the meeting room. He was the rising star of Huihuang—Chen Xiaohua—who once vowed to turn ten million into thirty million.

“A medium?” Xiao Yufan paused for a moment, before a glimmer of delight flickered in his eyes. He seemed to have overlooked something extremely important…

“Precisely! We can use the power of media or other platforms to elevate Huihuang’s reputation. Then, through various channels, we can seek larger markets. After all, economic monopolies can’t cover every angle!”

Chen Xiaohua’s gaze swept across the senior executives of Huihuang, showing no emotion. Once, he had joined Huihuang with lofty ambitions, only to find it was no longer the company it used to be. However, since Xiao Yufan’s arrival, he had seen hope again. As a graduate with an MBA from Stanford’s School of Business, he certainly didn’t need to hide his talents—he had more than enough ability to command respect.

“Great! Then I’ll entrust you entirely with this task. As for the media channels, leave them to me. Huihuang will never let talent go unrecognized!”

Looking at Chen Xiaohua’s slightly bold expression, Xiao Yufan couldn’t help but recall the young man’s earlier frustrations. How could he possibly miss out on such a promising talent—this potential “thousand-mile horse”? Moreover, he had already thought of the perfect medium: Lin Jiayao, already standing atop the media spotlight, would be the ideal choice…
