After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Clearly, Mr. Wang had come with a mission.

Not only was he to arrange for Li Manni, but he even let this young lady decide who would take Chang Ruihua's position.

The main show was all about putting on a full display!

To let everyone know that this young lady had a strong background and that nobody should damn well mess with her in the future.

Holding an emergency meeting to announce personnel changes publicly also served as a warning to others!

How terrifying this was!

This was definitely a true deity!

Han Tao thought silently to himself.

Li Manni, suddenly called upon, felt somewhat stunned.

She was to recommend someone for the head of the news department??

Was she qualified to make such a recommendation??

However, at this moment, both Wang Zhen and Han Tao were looking at her...

As if they were just waiting for her to make the final call.

"If I am to make a recommendation, I think Tang would be quite suitable,"

Li Manni naturally recommended Tang Lijie, who had always taken good care of her.

Of course, taking care of her was just one aspect; she felt Tang had exceptional abilities as well. It was just that she was rather straightforward and did not engage in any underhanded schemes.

"Hmm, I also think Group Leader Tang is very suitable."

Han Tao immediately nodded in agreement.

"Then let's settle on her!"

Wang Zhen nodded, having no recollection of the group leaders; he had no idea who the two were talking about.

But that was not important, as long as Li Manni approved.

His mission was now completely accomplished!

"Manni, on your way back, could you please also call over Group Leader Tang?"

Wang Zhen added another instruction.

"Okay."

Li Manni nodded and quickly left the meeting room.

And after she stepped out of the meeting room, she took a long breath.

Her experience just now was too surreal, and she needed some time to digest it all...

In the break room.

"Ding, congratulations in advance!"

Group Leader Pan Yueyue of the political news team walked up to a man in a brown suit holding a cup of coffee, smilingly said.

"Congratulations for what?"

Ding Zhitao asked knowingly, as he was actually feeling very pleased at the moment.

With Chang Ruihua being "optimized" away, the position he left behind was now vacant, and the three group leaders in the reporter department were the strongest competitors for it.

Considering her juniority, Pan Yueyue, who had just been promoted to group leader last year, was unlikely to be promoted again.

Although Tang Lijie had the seniority, her blunt and brash character was not favored by the leadership; take just now, for instance, with the leadership still in the meeting room, she openly mocked Chang Ruihua, which might have felt good but was inappropriate!

Previously, she had even openly defied the editor-in-chief, Han Tao, over a news item, so her chances of promotion were naturally slim.

Thus, only Ding Zhitao, the cultural news group leader, was left.

He had the seniority and a good relationship with the leadership.

Therefore, even more excited than Tang Lijie and Li Manni, he saw the opportunity for promotion after Chang Ruihua was "optimized."

"Ding, you're pretending to be confused when you know everything clearly!"

"With Chang Ruihua gone, the head of the reporter department has to be Ding!"

"Please take good care of us in the future," Pan Yueyue said cheerfully.

Ding Zhitao waved his hands repeatedly: "You can't say that; you and Tang both have a chance."

"And Yueyue, you are young and talented; perhaps your chances are even greater!"

Ding Zhitao politely flattered her.

"Ding, don't joke about me."

"I wouldn't dare to dream of that..." Pan Yueyue quickly shook her head, then whispered, "What kind of background does Li Manni really have? Do you know, Ding?"

"Not sure, but at first glance, she definitely has powerful support!"

"Someone who's untouchable for both you and me!" Ding Zhitao said softly.

Pan Yueyue sipped her coffee and said, "With such a powerful background, and still working so hard, it's truly rare to see!"

"She's probably trying to prove her worth through hard work and gain her family's approval, only to encounter someone like Chang Ruihua, who dares to act so brazenly. It really serves him right!"

Actually, Ding Zhitao would usually be quite obsequious towards Chang Ruihua, but things were different now; when the wall falls, everybody pushes!

"Ding, Tang has been called away by the editor-in-chief and that Manager Wang."

At that moment, a reporter from Ding Zhitao's team entered the break room and spoke with a panicked expression.

"Tang Lijie has been called away??"

Ding Zhitao's brow lifted slightly, and a bad premonition immediately rose in his heart.

Pan Yueyue's face also showed a look of surprise; being called for a talk at this time meant that she was very likely Chang Ruihua's successor.

"Could it be that Tang is taking over Chang Ruihua's position?" Pan Yueyue blurted out.

"If it really is her, it's probably due to Li Manni's influence."

Ding Zhitao frowned in frustration. He should have realized earlier that since Li Manni had such influence, Tang Lijie, who had good relations with her, was likely to be promoted.

In the meeting room.

Tang Lijie's feelings were complex and anxious at this moment.

After over a decade of hard work, she had only risen to be a group leader, but now she was about to be promoted, thanks to Li Manni.

How magical!

It just goes to show, sometimes making the right choice is more important than working hard!

She had chosen Li Manni, the hard-working young lady, instead of heeding Chang Ruihua's suggestion to win her over with flattery and make sacrifices.

Otherwise, she would probably have been "optimized" too by now!

"Xiao Tang, I've seen your dedication over these years, and our newspaper really needs middle-level leaders like you. Keep up the good work in your new position; the reporter department will be in your hands from now on!"

Han Tao, who was nearing fifty this year, calling Tang Lijie "Xiao Tang" was not overstepping at all.

"Hmm, I certainly won't let the Editor-in-Chief and the Group down!"

Group Leader Tang Lijie quickly stated her position.

"Director Tang, then let's get the contract signed!"

"I still have to report back to the Group's headquarters!"

Wang Zhen wasn't so polite when facing Tang Lijie; his tone was all business.

"Okay, let's sign it now!"

Tang Lijie nodded with a smile on her face.

In the past, contract renewals were always done at the Group's headquarters, but she didn't expect to enjoy such special treatment today.

Tang Lijie wasn't as meticulous as Li Manni, and after checking the section on rank and salary, she signed her name on the contract.

After completing his task, Wang Zhen immediately headed back to the Group's headquarters and reported the situation to Wei Zhengyi.

Wei Zhengyi was very satisfied with the efficiency of this HR manager and after praising him a couple of times, he once again went to the CEO's office.

"Mr. Yang, I've taken care of everything you assigned."

"Also, I've inquired about Miss Li's work. According to her colleagues' feedback, Miss Li has strong professional skills and works hard."

"It's a pity for such talent to work at the grassroots level as a journalist. Since the Group is about to establish a new Media Operations Center with the Director position still vacant, I've transferred Miss Li over there."

Wei Zhengyi briefly reported the arrangements concerning Li Manni.

"Hmm, Mr. Wei is thoughtful."

Yang Hao nodded.

The arrangements made by Vice President Wei happened to match Yang Hao's own future plans for Li Manni.

Yang Hao wasn't destined to be the president for long because, according to the script of the Monopoly game, his future assets would reach the level of tens of trillions.

The Jiangcheng Newspaper Group was too small for him, just a stepping stone to hone his skills at this stage.

Therefore, after his resignation, someone had to take over, and Yang Hao was planning to groom Li Manni as a potential successor to the presidency, eventually handing over the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group to her management.

Wei Zhengyi's regulations just happened to set Li Manni on the path of "official career."

Which was quite good.

Of course, this was just Yang Hao's unilateral idea. It also depended on Li Manni's personal wishes—if she wasn't willing to take the path of becoming a beautiful CEO, then they would reconsider.

After all, in Yang Hao's eyes, the Jiangcheng Newspaper Group was nothing more than a "training ground"!

Hmm, a place for everyone to hone their skills...

Since none of them had much experience being a CEO!

Even if they completely messed it up, it was just over a hundred million.

With the System on his side, small change!

...

Jiangcheng Evening News' reporter department.

Han Tao and Tang Lijie came to the public office area together.

"Everyone, please stop your work for a moment."

"I have an announcement to make!"

Han Tao clapped his hands to get everyone's attention, then he solemnly announced, "Effective immediately, the position of Head of the Reporter Department will be taken over by the former Hotline News Group Leader Tang Lijie!"

"Let's ask Director Tang to say a few words to everyone!"

"Let's welcome her with a round of applause..."

As he finished speaking, Han Tao started clapping, and naturally, all the reporters joined in with enthusiasm.

After all, this was essentially Tang Lijie's inauguration ceremony.

Even Ding Zhitao, who had previously been very interested in the position of Head of the Reporter Department, now begrudgingly put on a smile and joined in the applause.

There was no way around it; from now on, Tang Lijie would be his direct superior, so he had to make sure they got along well.

Tang Lijie, experiencing the highlight of her life, was naturally very happy. She gave a passionate inaugural speech.

In the end, she straightforwardly expressed her gratitude to Li Manni...

Bolli Fitness Center.

Yang Hao arrived just in time for lunch.

The rewards that came with the progress of the main quest line had given him quite the stimulation.

So the weight-loss task, which he had been neglecting these past few days, still needed to be picked up and completed quickly to meet the standard required by the System.

"Hello Yang!"

"Hello Yang..."

Yang Hao entered the fitness center, and Yu Lili and Zhou Ling, who had been slacking off behind the counter, stood up to greet him, each with a smile more radiant than the other.

Yang Hao wasn't aware that, after Yu Lili's promotion, the news that he bought Meng Yuyu a Mercedes GLC had spread throughout the fitness center.

People had a brand new understanding of his financial power!

This was a god-level wealthy man who could casually gift a car worth more than half a million yuan!

If one could gain the favor of this wealthy patron, their second half of life would be worry-free.

With such thoughts in mind, today Yu Lili's makeup was much more exquisite than usual, and she wore a V-neck sweater. When Yang Hao entered, she deliberately pulled down her neckline a bit to create an effect that was both revealing and concealing.

However, Yu Lili's figure was too ordinary to attract Yang Hao's attention.

"Where's Xinyi?"

Yang Hao glanced at Yu Lili's neckline without any pause.

"Mr. Yang, I'm here!"

Sun Xinyi had been eating in the rest area and came out when she heard the voice.

"Did you bring me food?"

Yang Hao bypassed the two women at the front desk and went straight to the rest area.

"I did."

Bringing Yang Hao a low-fat meal had become a daily task for Sun Xinyi. Even if she sometimes brought it back untouched, she would still make a fresh one the next day.

They agreed before to provide a month's worth of low-fat meals for Mr. Yang, and Sun Xinyi was someone who kept her promises.

"Then that's good."

"I'm hungry!"

Yang Hao walked into the rest area with a smile, joining Sun Xinyi for lunch.

While they ate, Sun Xinyi's Weixun kept buzzing. Unable to help himself, Yang Hao asked, "Busy lately?"

"It's a good friend of mine; she used to work in Capital City and came back last week to join a big company in Jiangcheng."

"Initially, everything was going well, but today everyone else in her department left, leaving her alone. The new boss seems to be quite lascivious. The HR people said... said that when that boss was hiring secretaries, he even made... such demands..."
