Chapter 720 Do You Look Down on Me? [666+4]
Everyone knows how to choose between a pound of gold and a pound of scrap iron.

But Lance didn’t expect Mr. Rao to stand on his side so clearly. But after thinking about it seriously, he felt that this was where Mr. Rao was smart.

He put his favor into practice.

He just wanted to show this decision that was clearly biased towards Lance, so that everyone would know that he had made a great contribution to Lance’s victory.

Only in this way will Senator Cleveland, who is behind Lance, appreciate his kindness.

If he had straightened out the relationship privately, or done a favor without anyone noticing, when he went to see Senator Cleveland, Senator Cleveland would have simply denied it.

Sometimes people feel that politics and politicians are blatantly shameless, not because their level is not high enough, but because the goals they want to achieve require them to behave so blatantly.

Mr. Richard snorted angrily. He did not nominate himself, but instead nominated the Good Dream Distilling Company.

That is the wine company run by the President’s cousin.

Richard knew very well that he would not be able to become the rotating chairman if he nominated himself, so he directly nominated the company that was apparently the most powerful here.

He has reached some private agreement with the President’s cousin that he will nominate and vote for him, fully supporting Good Dream Distilling Company to become the first rotating chairman.

What Good Dreams needs to do is to allow Richard and his Gold Label Wines to become the first executive member of the industry committee.

And, refused Lance and his Golden Lion Wine Industry to become an executive committee unit.

It was a deal with no loss, so the representative of Good Dream Distillery Company agreed to it immediately.

Seeing that the number of votes on their side was increasing, the representative of Good Dream Distilled Liquor Company also smiled.

He never took those small companies seriously. In other words, he didn’t think that these people would choose someone else after he was nominated as the rotating chairman. Wouldn’t they be fools if they did that?

He also heard that the people behind these wineries did not want them to get involved in the dispute between Golden Lion Wine and Golden Label Wine, so now there is an additional option for them to “avoid the war”, and he will definitely be elected with a high vote.

Seeing that he was only two votes away from winning, the representative of Good Dream Company already had a smile of victory on his face, and was about to start declining and then accept the position.

Zreal made a sound, “I choose Mr. Lance.”

Everyone in the room was stunned for a moment, and their eyes were all fixed on Zreal. Richard couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Zreal, can I ask why?”

Zreal had already thought about all the problems he might encounter in the past few days, and he was not in a hurry at all, “There are many reasons.”

“First of all, Mr. Lance is the initiator and promoter of the entire plan. Without him, we would not be sitting here now.”

“Secondly, I have often felt in recent years that as I have aged, I have been unable to keep up with the development and progress of this society and this era.”

“I noticed that we were all older guys and I never worried about whether we had the maturity to run the committee.”

“But I am worried about whether we are able to find some better ways that transcend the times and our vision and find the direction for our future, as Mr. Lans proposed.”

“So I think Mr. Lance is the most suitable person to be the rotating chairman. No matter what the reason is, he is the most suitable person!”

The speech was quite standard, but it also explained very well why he voted for Lance, which was considered to be explainable.

Richard pursed his lips, said nothing, and then looked at another person who had not yet voted.

Under his gaze, the guy also chose to vote for Lance.

Richard couldn’t help himself again, “I can accept Mr. Zreal’s explanation, but can you tell me why you voted for Lance?”

The man laughed twice and said, “First, I need to remind you, Mr. Richard, it is my freedom to vote for whomever I want, not yours.”

“Secondly, you have no right to ask me to tell you why I did this.”

Richard’s face turned very ugly. Some of the cooperation plans he had agreed upon with Good Dream Company were based on the fact that Good Dream Company could become the first round of rotating chairman.

Now all that’s missing is… He took a look and saw that it was just two votes. That shouldn’t be difficult, right?
Why is this happening?

He didn’t understand. He looked at the three people who hadn’t voted yet. He knew he couldn’t show such an ugly and blatant greed now.

However, he remembered this person in his heart, and when he becomes a member of the executive committee, he will find a way to deal with these people.

But before that, he needs to maintain his image, “I’m sorry, I crossed the line.”

“I forgive you, even though your apology is not very sincere.”

“Don’t you want to know why?”

“It’s simple, because I think Mr. Zreal is right.”

Some people laughed, but whether there was ridicule or sarcasm in their laughter was a matter of opinion.

Richard’s face turned red, hot, and swollen. He calmed himself down, stared at the two men for a while, and then looked at the third man, “What about you?” “You’re not going to vote for Lance, are you?”

The people he stared at were not afraid of him at all. Everyone had someone behind them. Although some of them had a higher status and some had a lower status, they were not so easy to mess with if they stick together.

Facing Richard’s provocative words, he did not hesitate, “You are right, I will vote for Mr. Lance too.”

“As for why, because I’m happy!”

Richard’s expression couldn’t be uglier. He looked at another person, who pursed his lips and said, “I vote for Lance, too, and I refuse to answer any of your questions.”

The representative of Good Dream Company regained his composure. He glanced at Richard, but the result could not be changed.

Joseph also looked at Lance in shock, as if… he couldn’t understand why Lance could convince these small factories to vote for Lance even if they were eyeing the relationship with the president behind Good Dream Company.

But this is destined to remain a secret, and no one will tell them why all this is happening.

Lance looked at the last person who hadn’t voted. It didn’t really matter whether he voted or not, but he still asked, “Who are you going to vote for?”

The man was also very tactful, and he also knew that when the winner had already been decided, voting had no other value except offending people.

If he votes for Lance Richard, the people at Good Dream Company will think that he is also Lance’s man, which may affect him, the company behind him, and the people behind the company.

If he voted for Good Dream Company, would Lance, who had already obtained the position of rotating chairman, take action against him?
So he just raised his hand and said, “I’m not interested in these. I abstain.”

A very suitable choice, no one can find fault with him.

Mr. Rao smiled even more. “It seems that everyone is willing to let Mr. Lance be the first rotating chairman. Lance, do you have anything to say?”

Lance nodded. “Since Mr. Rao asked, I will briefly say a few words.”

“Since I currently live in Jingang City and cannot come here very often, I plan to set up a professional team to take charge of the work within the committee.”

“We may need to negotiate with Congress, the Ministry of Defense, and the military on some issues anytime and anywhere, so I hope that at least two of the rotating executive committee members can be stationed in New Jin City.”

“We are an industry committee. We also need to make our contribution to the industry, set standards, and prevent alcoholic beverages blended with industrial alcohol from appearing on the market.”

“We have obligations and rights. This is a responsibility. I hope each of us can take this job seriously.”

“Because it costs money to establish an institution, what I thought was that the four companies that contributed the most would automatically become the first executive committee members.”

Mr. Rao listened to his general idea and he admired Lance for being able to think of all these things in a very short time, and they were very appropriate.

Especially regarding the matter of “buying” the executive committee unit, they will definitely invest a lot of money.

A company like Good Dream Distilling Company failed to get a rotating chairmanship. If it can’t even get a rotating executive committee member, where is the president’s face?

If Lance arranges a few more agents…

Mr. Rao couldn’t help laughing. He really wanted to know what tricks Lance was going to play, but he still interrupted him and said, “You can discuss these later. Now that you have the results, there are a few things you need to pay attention to…”

After he finished reading out some precautions, he took the initiative to stand up and said, “The rest of the time is left to you. If you need anything, you can call me. You all have my business card.”

“Then my work is over. Good-bye, gentlemen!”

He took his things and left. Lance then stood up and walked to the first seat where Mr. Rao had sat before. He stood with his hands supporting the table and his body leaning forward.

He looked at Joseph, “Joseph, my friend, set an example.”

“In fact, I was reluctant to be elected as the rotating chairman, but you all support me so much. I also hope that you can support me in this matter as before.”

“do not let me down!”

Mr. Joseph was a little restless at this time. He never thought that Lance would really sit in that position.

Now he is lifting a rock and hitting himself in the foot.

He forced a smile and said, “I… will take out 100,000 yuan.”

This is already a lot of money, but Lance won’t be satisfied.

“Do you look down on me?”

“So I was given a number like this?”

“Ok?”
