The Kunshan Group had been eliminated, but the drugs from the Golden Triangle continued to be produced. Due to the overwhelming power of Jiang Chen, many Huaxia people were genuinely afraid to engage with the Golden Triangle again. As a result, drug prices plummeted, especially for the Huaxia people, who found the prices negotiable. The Huaxia Nation was a vast country, and the people of the Golden Triangle were reluctant to lose such a significant market. Thus, they lowered their prices to attract those daring Huaxia individuals.
Guo Weiqing couldn't be said to have a lot of courage; rather, she felt she had no choice. To save her family's Pharmaceutical Company, she bravely continued to maintain contact with the Golden Triangle. What other option did she have? Should the Pharmaceutical Company shut down? Not only had it not closed, but due to the drop in drug prices and ample supply, the Pharmaceutical Company was thriving.
Now that the Pharmaceutical Company was flourishing and became highly sought after, it earned more than all other industries combined. Naturally, the Guo family was envious and wanted Guo Weiqing to relinquish control of the Pharmaceutical Company.
Today was the semi-annual summary meeting, and some members of the Guo family took this opportunity to invite Old Master Guo to reappoint someone to oversee the Pharmaceutical Company. Although Guo Weiqing was exceptional, Old Master Guo had always favored males over females. In his eyes, no matter how talented a girl was, she would eventually marry and become less useful. Now that the Pharmaceutical Company had become a pillar industry for the Guo family, it naturally needed to be managed by a male member of the family.
In the conference room, facing interference from various board members and accusations from relatives, Guo Weiqing felt isolated and helpless. Even her parents urged her to give up control of the Pharmaceutical Company. Sitting in her chair with a pen in hand, her head lowered and her body trembling slightly, she felt overwhelmed.
Suddenly, with a loud crack, Guo Weiqing's signature pen broke due to her grip. Perhaps it was because everyone had grown tired of talking or because the sound of the pen breaking was too abrupt; the conference room fell silent.
However, this silence lasted only a moment.
Soon after, a cold voice broke through: "Guo Weiqing, Grandpa has already said that you no longer need to manage the Pharmaceutical Company. Are you not convinced?"
The speaker was Guo Wei Yi, Guo Weiqing's cousin and eldest grandson of the Guo family. He was quite capable but often overshadowed by his cousin Guo Weiqing. This resentment made him eager to find ways to undermine her whenever possible. For him, forcing Guo Weiqing out would be highly beneficial.
"I am not convinced! Last year, this Pharmaceutical Company was on the verge of collapse, and none of you were willing to take over this mess. Now that I have managed it well, you come in to reap the benefits! Do you even have any shame?" Guo Weiqing raised her head and spoke loudly.
"Ha! The Pharmaceutical Company is not doing well because of you. Last year when we went to the Golden Triangle, it just so happened that someone eliminated the Kunshan Group. People no longer dared to source from the Golden Triangle; our Lin family from Hong Kong Island is a prime example. The external environment has changed—don’t take credit for something that isn’t yours," Guo Wei Yi scoffed.
"Cousin, even if I have no achievements, I have put in hard work! And what about you? Of course, all of you board members and Grandpa have said so; I have no choice but to step down today. However, there is one thing I must clarify: last year’s eliminator of Kunshan warned that Huaxia people are not allowed to engage with the Golden Triangle again. If anyone dares to do so and he finds out, he will come back for blood. I want to make this clear so that when he arrives, you won’t be caught off guard." Although Guo Weiqing felt unwilling, she knew she had no power over decisions in the Guo family business; after all, public opinion could move mountains—let alone something as trivial as stepping down from her position.
