705: Chapter 696: Is Luo Xiaobu in Trouble Again?

Here Comes the Action!

Several months later.

Dongfang Capital, Ace Law Firm.

“Not long ago, Blacksmith Technology held a press conference where their Chief Research Officer, Mr.

Zhao Qingyan, actually admitted to being the true mastermind behind Blacksmith Technology, the legendary Blacksmith boss!”

“At present, Blacksmith Technology has initiated business cooperation with Ace Law Firm, and these two major groups have carried out multiple joint efforts on the development of Dongfang Capital and projects to benefit the public, with the fastest project expected to be completed by the end of this year.”

“The news received by our reporters at present indicates that the projects released by both groups offer numerous benefits to the public.

Let us look forward to seeing how these two powerhouses will transform Dongfang Capital.”

…

“Several months ago, the former chairman of Dongfang Capital’s city council, Zhang Tianlong (who has been impeached), has been convicted by the court and has already been transferred to Iron Island Prison to serve his sentence.”

“According to the information obtained by our reporters, Zhang Tianlong’s sentence is life imprisonment, to be served permanently within Iron Island Prison.

It goes without saying that the former chairman’s actions have aroused public outrage.”

“However, according to our sources, the city council cannot be without a leader for a day, and the election for a new chairman is underway with great enthusiasm following the former chairman’s arrest.”

“Reliable sources suggest that Tan Yingying, the new council member who reported and initiated the impeachment of the former chairman, is currently a strong contender for the chairmanship.”

“It’s hard to imagine that a young council member, who has just assumed her role, could actually contend for the position of city council chairperson.

It must be said that the senior management of Dongfang Capital is currently trending younger.”

“Now let’s switch to the live broadcast from our station and turn the camera to council member Tan Yingying, looking forward to her future performance.”

…

Zhang Wei looked at the computer screen in front of him, which was broadcasting the recent major events in Dongfang Capital.

“Who would’ve thought, Xiao Tan really did go for the election as chairperson.

But I must say, she is likely to succeed.

After all, bringing down Zhang Tianlong alone is enough to influence the election results.

Her approval ratings should absolutely crush her opponents.”

As he spoke, he gently stood up and walked to the window behind him, looking out through the glass across the entire central area of Dongfang Capital.

Dongfang Capital is still the same, with tens of millions of people, a bustling metropolis, crowded city center, and towering steel forests.

But only a few are aware that up until a few months ago, Dongfang Capital had always been firmly under the control of the Five Great Families.

Especially the Zhang Family of the Five Great Families, which had controlled Dongfang Capital’s most profitable maritime trade for a century and manipulated the city council to pursue personal gain for themselves and their clan.

Not long ago, the Zhang Family was completely wiped out.

The old patriarch, Zhang Tianyan, committed suicide by hanging at home, a relatively dignified exit.

The current head of the family, Zhang Tianlong, has committed heinous crimes and is now serving his sentence after pleading guilty.

The second son, Zhang Dihu, has confessed and is currently facing charges at the international investigation department.

Dragon Country has already stepped in to negotiate his extradition to continue the trial at home, where he will also end up behind bars for good.

The third son, Zhang Renbao, passed away early, leaving behind only a son and a daughter.

However, that son and daughter have not sought to recognize their ties with the Zhang Family.

They have completely severed ties, even changing their surname to “Zhang,” disconnecting themselves from the Zhang Family entirely.

The fourth son, Zhang Lang, has also been imprisoned for major crimes.

During the heyday of the Zhang Family, three generations of patriarchs served as chairpersons of the city council of Dongfang Capital, firmly in control, with an influence that reached to the heavens.

But now, they have completely fallen, and the entire Zhang Family no longer exists.
