Ma Li was stunned. Her expression, just like Director Jiang’s, was filled with panic, distortion, and confusion. She said, "Why? Lu Junhe, aren’t you afraid that this school won’t be able to continue operating? My family owns 35% of the shares."
"Wang Sheng’s shares, my Shanshui Group will purchase them."
Everyone turned their gaze and saw two people entering the classroom. The leader, tall and sturdy, wore a suit and was dressed like a successful person. It was none other than the chairman of Shanshui Group, Zhang Qun.
Zhang Qun said indifferently, "Officer He, could you calculate how much Wang Sheng’s 35% of shares amount to?"
Officer He, looking quite gentlemanly beside Zhang Qun, pushed his glasses up and said, "A total of 43,600,000."
Zhang Qun turned to Chu Hao with a smile and said, "Brother Chu, you didn’t take the last 5,000,000 I gave you, so as an additional gift from your big brother here, I’d like to express my thanks."
Zhang Qun said, "Officer He."
Officer He nodded. "Director Zhang, please go ahead."
Zhang Qun continued indifferently, "The shares I’m purchasing will all be transferred to Chu Hao’s name."
The entire room was shocked.
"Ding... Host has succeeded in showing off, gaining 70 Pretentiousness Points."
"Ding... Host has succeeded in showing off, gaining 70 Pretentiousness Points."
Forty-three million six hundred thousand?
Does that mean that Chu Hao owns half of Star Dream High School, one of the top five in Anli City!?
Everyone was shocked. Students in the class had their mouths wide open, big enough to fit a fist. The shock of today came in waves, even more thrilling than an epic blockbuster.
The homeroom teacher was also dumbfounded. The twists and turns of today were simply beyond one’s wildest imagination.
Let alone them, I’m also a bit dumbstruck,
I had already figured out there was some mystery. It seems refusing the remaining 5,000,000 was a move that came with a huge kickback. Isn’t that absolutely shrewd business?
Money is easy to make, but certain fixed assets are distributed evenly amongst the upper class. Even with hundreds of millions, I wouldn’t be able to purchase school shares.
This was Zhang Qun for you; he directly transferred the shares to me.
Chu Hao rubbed his hands together and said, "Brother Zhang, are you saying that I can now become the principal?"
Principal Lu Junhe, at his side, broke out in a cold sweat, feeling an urge to cry.
You’re really terrifying! Just got the shares and already talking about changing the principal? Are you even going to let people live?!
Zhang Qun smiled slightly and said, "Having more than 30% of the shares allows one to decide on the principal’s position. Together with my 40% stake in Star Dream High School, if I support you, brother, changing the principal would be no issue at all."
Lu Junhe’s voice trembled as he said, "Student Chu, no... Director Chu, I have been doing quite well. Under my leadership, Star Dream High School has already become one of the top five hundred high schools nationwide."
The students in the class had their mouths wide open.
Is this really the principal?
Is this the same man who was once so high and mighty?
He actually fears being fired, too.
Chu Hao laughed heartily and patted Lu Junhe’s shoulder. "I was just mentioning it offhand."
I nearly fainted! he thought. With just a casual mention, my heart almost stopped beating! Now, even if I had a hundred times the courage, I wouldn’t dare to offend Chu Hao.
Looking at the classmates, their jaws had all but dropped to the floor.
I have the power to change the principal! Chu Hao thought, excited. He then said, "AHEM... I think Teacher Wu has been very diligent over the years. Let her take over Director Jiang’s former position."
The homeroom teacher was taken aback, tears brimming in her eyes. Such a good student of mine.
Chu Hao’s homeroom teacher was a very good teacher; though tough on students, she was truly kind-hearted. Just like earlier, when Ma Li burst into the classroom ordering Chu Hao to be captured, she wasn’t intimidated by Ma Li’s power but instead stood up for her student.
And beside them, Director Jiang had completely despaired. I’m completely done for, he thought, feeling an urge to kneel. Can this even be salvaged?
Principal Lu Junhe quickly said, "No problem, Teacher Wu. Starting from tomorrow, you’ll temporarily take over Director Jiang’s position."
"Principal, I promise I won’t let everyone down." The homeroom teacher was so excited she was almost in tears.
Ma Li was furious. Pointing at everyone present, she venomously said, "All of you... just you wait."
She had never been humiliated before; she felt like she was about to explode. She decided she would destroy these people, not sparing a single one.
Chu Hao waved his hand, exuding an air of dominance, his disdainful gaze like that of a superior looking down on inferiors. This created an illusion in the minds of many. He said indifferently, "No need to wait for your revenge. Today’s matter will be settled now."
Chu Hao looked at the two policemen. "Which branch are you guys from?"
The two officers felt a shiver in their hearts and said, "Southwest Branch Office."
Chu Hao laughed. "The Southwest Branch Office again? I’m very familiar."
What... what does he mean, he’s familiar? the two policemen thought, so scared they almost bit their tongues.
Chu Hao then picked up his phone and called. "Old Man Yuan, give me the number of the deputy head of the Southwest District, where I was held last time."
Old Yuan immediately sent him the number for the Southwest Branch Office and added, "Instructor Chu, if you can’t resolve the issue, call this old man."
Chu Hao dialed the deputy head’s number at the Southwest Branch Office and briefly explained the situation.
"Their badge numbers, let’s see... 88141, 88151."
Cold sweat broke out across the foreheads of the two men.
Is... is this guy just an ordinary person?
We’ve been set up by Ma Li!
Zhang Qun’s eyes lit up. So Chu Hao actually has this much clout? he thought. But then it makes sense. He’s no ordinary person; he might interact with people at even higher levels of society than I do. Thinking this, I feel extremely fortunate. Using 35% of Star Dream High School’s shares to build a relationship with him was truly worth it!
After Chu Hao hung up the phone, under everyone’s astonished gazes, he switched into show-off mode and said, "Heaven cherishes life. I gave you all a chance. It’s not that I don’t take action, but that once I do, even I am afraid of myself."
"Ding... Host has succeeded in showing off, gaining 70 Pretentiousness Points."
The two policemen trembled inwardly, feeling an inexplicable, heavy, and pressing pressure from the current Chu Hao.
At that moment, both of their phones suddenly rang.
"Director... Deputy Director," the tall policeman stammered, already drenched in sweat, utterly panicked.
After the two hung up.
Chu Hao folded his arms and coldly said, "You two now have a chance to make amends for your mistake—throw this madwoman out of my school."
Throw her out of my school!
Everyone was excited, especially the students of Grade 12 Class 164. They watched the policemen, wondering how they would decide.
The two stood up straight and saluted. "Yes, sir!"
"Ding... Host has succeeded in showing off, gaining 70 Pretentiousness Points."
Ma Li screamed in shock. The series of blows had left her completely dazed. "You... what are you doing?"
The tall policeman, expressionless, said, "Ms. Ma, you have disrupted the normal order of the school. Come with us to the station."
The other policeman, stern and impartial, said, "Please cooperate."
