The Amazing son in law Chapter 6765
“If their resistance isn’t too formidable, I can make a direct decision on this issue, which will at least help you keep the vice president position,” President Pei stated.
“However, if there is significant opposition, I’ll step back. I will promote Director Willson Zhao to vice president, and you’ll take over Director Willson Zhao’s role. That position will then be yours. How does that sound?”
Jacob had initially thought he might leave the association, but he found himself listening intently now. When President Pei offered him the director position, he had no objections and quickly expressed his gratitude: “Thank you so much, President Pei!”
President Pei sighed in relief, smiling as he replied, “Jacob, I’m like a big brother to you. Why be so formal? Helping you is what a big brother should do!”
Jacob smiled genuinely and said, “Yes, big brother. Your words make me feel reassured.”
Afterward, he quickly asked, “By the way, President Pei, have the vice presidents been managed? Will the others below make any irresponsible comments? What if they remain dissatisfied and continue causing trouble?”
President Pei reassured him with a smile, “Don’t worry. Our association may be small, but everyone has their own little group, and they’re all vice presidents. Just gather a few of your allies. Besides my people, the other vice presidents are practically all on our side. Think of them as team leaders in our organization. As long as they don’t object to my decisions, their teams won’t either. Even if there are some objections, they’ll silence those who complain.”
Jacob responded instinctively, “Oh wow, that’s how it works? But why don’t I have any supporters?”
President Pei sighed, “Who knows what you were thinking when I first suggested you as vice president? You need to rally a few allies from below.”
“How can you build a network for yourself when you’re not around the association all day and are just at the senior university? You spend all your time there!” Jacob blurted out, feeling frustrated. He then muttered to himself, “I won’t go to that ridiculous senior university again!”
President Pei replied, “Once this matter is settled, if you put in more effort, you could rise again before long.”
“Absolutely!” Jacob replied with genuine appreciation, “Thank you, Pei Hui. I will strive hard from now on!”
After ending the call, Jacob felt a wave of relief wash over him. He sighed, “Oh, now I only have 300,000 yuan left for donations.”
With that thought in mind, he turned to the driver and said, “Please take me to the largest law firm in Aurous Hill!”
The driver nodded, “Do you mean Smith Law Firm? They’re from the United States and are said to be the biggest law firm not just in Aurous Hill, but in all of East China.”
Jacob suddenly shuddered and instinctively replied, “No, don’t go there! Let’s go to the second-best instead!” He remembered that Smith Law Firm was run by Paul, Han Meiqing’s son, who was about to become He Yuanjiang’s stepson. He felt embarrassed to seek help from a firm that would be associated with them, especially since Paul was known for soliciting donations for charity.
The driver suggested, “If you’re looking for a lawyer, Smith Law Firm is the best choice. Their lawyer is incredibly well-regarded in Aurous Hill.”
Jacob firmly shook his head and said, “No, I’m not keen on dealing with foreigners. Let’s support our local Aurous Hill firms instead!”
