Chapter 1176: Chapter 1176: Discussing Cooperation

Tianyu Commerce Chamber!

At this moment, within the Tianyu Commerce Chamber, there was an intense discussion taking place.

The core of the discussion naturally revolved around how to deal with Zhou Yu.

Most of the participants were those who had interacted with Zhou Yu before.

Among the younger generation were the two young masters, Li Zerui and Fan Xiong.

From the eighteen generals of Tianyu, there were Gu Hongcai, Jin Yidao, and Wu Changjiang.

From the high-level executives, there were the two vice presidents, Fan Tianlei and Wang Hongshan.

Except for Wang Hongshan, every time the others mentioned Zhou Yu, they gnashed their teeth, wishing they could tear Zhou Yu into pieces.

Each of them had suffered setbacks at Zhou Yu’s hands, and not just once.

Li Zerui even lost his position as the heir to the commerce chamber because of Zhou Yu.

It goes without saying how deep their hatred for Zhou Yu ran.

But Wang Hongshan was an exception. He first encountered Zhou Yu at the Gong Family, and although the Tianyu Commerce Chamber was humiliated there, Zhou Yu left a very deep impression on Wang Hongshan.

His gaze was very sharp, and he could see at a glance that if Zhou Yu did not die, he would definitely soar like a dragon and become a top figure in Dragon Country.

Therefore, his idea was actually to befriend Zhou Yu.

When everyone else was gnashing their teeth, Wang Hongshan directly voiced his thoughts.

“I believe we should reconcile with Zhou Yu, including the Hucheng Martial Pavilion.”

“We must not have any conflict with them.”

These words instantly provoked everyone’s anger.

Fan Tianlei and most of the eighteen generals all glared at Wang Hongshan angrily.

“Vice President Wang, what do you mean?”

“At this critical juncture, are you trying to betray us?”

“Reconcile with Zhou Yu?”

“You really dare to say that!”

“Is he worthy?”

“Or are you secretly receiving benefits from Zhou Yu?”

Fan Tianlei took the opportunity to launch an attack, his tone filled with questioning and coercion.

Wang Hongshan hurriedly explained, but it was to no avail. The atmosphere in the entire meeting room grew increasingly tense and angry.

In an instant, Wang Hongshan became the target of everyone’s resentment.

Actually, within the Tianyu Commerce Chamber, the president was often not in Hu City, and none of the vice presidents got along with each other, so whenever there was an opportunity, one would try to undermine the other.

Simply put, it was all for the sake of interests.

Wang Hongshan’s speech happened to provoke public anger, and Fan Tianlei would not miss such an opportunity.

Seeing the crowd’s furious expressions, Wang Hongshan angrily slapped the table.

“Fine, since you want to deal with Zhou Yu, you can handle it yourselves, I won’t participate.”

With that, Wang Hongshan left the meeting room in anger.

The only people who followed Wang Hongshan out were the second-ranked Feihong General and the eighth-ranked Liuyun General among the eighteen generals of Tianyu.

These two were Wang Hongshan’s absolute confidants.

After leaving the meeting room, Feihong General looked at Wang Hongshan and said:

“Vice President Wang, you were a bit impulsive just now. Fan Tianlei and his people surely won’t miss this opportunity. They will bring this matter to the president and make trouble for you. Your position might not be secure.”

Liuyun General also nodded solemnly.

“Yes.”

Wang Hongshan said with a stern face:

“No matter, they are just shortsighted individuals who want to use the commerce chamber’s power for personal revenge against Zhou Yu.”

“I won’t participate in this matter.”

“More than that, I won’t just abstain, I will reach out to Zhou Yu.”

“Zhou Yu is someone worth a strong alliance.”

“Once we ally, the benefits might far exceed our imagination.”

Seeing Wang Hongshan’s determination, Feihong General and Liuyun General said no more.

“I’ll call Zhou Yu right now.”

“Discuss partnership matters.”

…

At this moment, Zhou Yu had just finished a phone call with Xiao Ce and was drinking tea in his office.

Suddenly, his phone rang.

He picked up the phone and saw it was an unfamiliar number.

Zhou Yu pressed the answer button.

“Hello, Mr. Zhou, this is Wang Hongshan from Tianyu Commerce Chamber.”

Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow, surprised to receive a call from Vice President Wang of the Tianyu Commerce Chamber.

Zhou Yu said calmly:

“Ah, Vice President Wang, what makes you call me all of a sudden?”

Wang Hongshan chuckled.

“I’m a straightforward person, so I’ll get straight to the point.”

“Mr. Zhou, I want to discuss cooperation with you.”

“Cooperation?”

Zhou Yu was taken aback.

He didn’t expect Wang Hongshan to take the initiative to propose cooperation with him.

This indeed caught him by surprise.

“How would we cooperate? Please, tell me more.”

Wang Hongshan quickly said:

“Mr. Zhou, apart from the commerce chamber, personally, I have no grievances with you. I don’t want to put myself in opposition to you because of some personal grudges held by others in the chamber.”

“On this point, I hope you can trust me.”

“As for the cooperation, my idea is to collaborate with you under my name personally. I can provide you with relevant intelligence, or if you need Herbal Medicine for Alchemy, I can supply the materials.”

“In the future, we can gradually deepen our cooperation.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately understood.

He smiled faintly and said:

“It seems Vice President Wang is being ostracized in the Tianyu Commerce Chamber.”

Wang Hongshan gave a bitter smile.

“Mr. Zhou, you’ve figured it out.”

“So I won’t hide it from you.”

“That’s exactly the current situation.”

Zhou Yu was quite pleased with Wang Hongshan’s candor.

Suddenly, he changed the subject and said:

“If you want to take control of the Tianyu Commerce Chamber, what conditions would you need?”

Upon hearing these words, Wang Hongshan was directly stupefied…
