Many renowned financial oligarchs or the Chaebol Clan have various think tanks.

For example, Buffett, Soros, and Chelsea's owner, Ah Bu, are active in the international community, so their think tanks are well-known among the public.

Although these executives are quite interested in this novel think tank department at home, not many have voiced their opinions. As long as their positions remain unaffected, other issues do not concern them.

However, there was one person in the meeting room whose expression kept changing.

That was Mr. Shao.

Although Gu Bai said that the personnel changes would not affect anyone present, Mr. Shao was an exception.

Even though Gu Jun is only a deputy general manager, Gu Bai didn't grant him any specific authority, only asking him to assist Mr. Shao. It sounded like Mr. Shao wasn't affected, but in reality, he was the most impacted.

If Gu Bai had delegated certain company departments specifically to Gu Jun, Mr. Shao might have felt a bit better.

The reason is simple: previously, Mr. Shao was the most prominent leader in the company next to Gu Bai, with maximum authority, responsible only to Gu Bai. But now, it's different. Gu Bai has parachuted in a deputy general manager to curtail Mr. Shao's power. In the future, if Gu Bai is absent, Mr. Shao would have to discuss actions with Gu Jun.

What does this equate to?

It equates to half of Mr. Shao's authority being directly stripped away.

Moreover, if Gu Bai chooses, Mr. Shao could be sidelined and kicked out of the company at any time.

Previously, Mr. Shao might have been Gu Bai's confidant, but now, anyone with keen eyes would realize that compared to the two, the true confidant is only likely to be Gu Jun.

For a moment, Mr. Shao's expression was extremely complicated.

Gu Bai also noticed the change in Mr. Shao's expression but chose to say nothing.

At the inception of Black Swan Capital, Mr. Shao indeed contributed significantly, even staying at the company 24 hours a day at times.

But this doesn't mean Gu Bai would hold back due to past sentiments.

Undeniably, Mr. Shao is loyal to the company, but as Black Swan Group expanded, his capabilities increasingly failed to keep pace with the company's rhythm. During the joint investigation by the three major departments, in Gu Bai's absence, as the highest management, Mr. Shao couldn't even come up with a contingency plan in a short time. Fortunately, the company had no substantial issues. If any major violations were found, it would deal a significant blow to the group, especially in terms of reputation.

In reality, Mr. Shao could only be described as a professional investment talent, inferior even to Xiao Qiang.

Forcing him to assume the general manager role felt somewhat like putting a square peg in a round hole. It depended on whether he could recognize himself and willingly step down from the general manager position in the future.

If he could willingly step down from the general manager role, Gu Bai would still be comfortable entrusting the most crucial investment division of the group to him.

If he was unwilling, then Gu Bai wouldn't mind being the villain who removes the millstone after the grist is milled.

After all, if he forcibly removes Mr. Shao from the general manager position, Mr. Shao is bound to bear grudges against him. Gu Bai certainly wouldn't feel secure handing over such an important position as the investment division to someone harboring ulterior motives towards him.

"The introduction to ordinary personnel changes is now complete. Next up is the issue of Black Swan Security."

"Due to the domestic environment, the development of a security company in the country is quite difficult. Therefore, I plan to establish a domestic headquarters for Black Swan Security and additionally set up a branch in the United States.

So I would like to ask if anyone is willing to go to the United States to manage the Black Swan Security branch?"

After finishing, Gu Bai glanced around the room.

Yet no one made any response.

Gu Bai looked at everyone, understanding it was natural that no one responded. After all, who would want to forsake the comfort of the domestic environment and go across the ocean to manage a newly established company?

Thinking of this, Gu Bai continued, "If anyone is willing to go, the salary will be doubled from the original level. Moreover, it's not to say you'll be in the United States for a lifetime; you only need to serve as management at the U.S. branch for three years before returning to China.

And I hereby guarantee to everyone that as long as you complete the three-year term in the branch as management, you'll return to the original salary, and your position will be upgraded by one level."

When Gu Bai finished speaking, the group finally began to discuss among themselves.

The reward offered by Gu Bai was too lucrative. Although everyone knew the environment in the United States was indeed challenging, they couldn't help but be tempted hearing such generous incentives.

Seeing the crowd discussing, Gu Bai felt satisfied and smiled.

Indeed, people bustle about for profit and come together for benefits.

After all, who would turn their back on money?

Gu Bai didn't give them too much time to discuss, lightly tapping the table and saying, "There's still some time before the U.S. branch is set up, no need to deliberate now. Anyone interested can contact the chairman's office directly when the time comes."

The crowd stopped their discussions upon hearing Gu Bai's words.

"Now, we move on to the third topic of the meeting, which is also the most important one."

"Investment division, risk management division, please work a bit harder these days, work overtime, and come up with a plan for me."

Everyone looked perplexedly at Gu Bai.

"The theme of the plan is...
