Chapter 1,425 Interim President
1425
Hua Bailu looked at Xu Taiping in surprise, who was walking ahead and chatting and laughing with the secretary-general. She didn't dare to connect that Xu Taiping with the Xu Taiping in Hua Bailu's mouth.
"The Chinese Martial Arts Association is the largest association in the entire Chinese martial arts world. The president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association is equivalent to the leader of the martial arts league in ancient times. It is so easy to be a leader. Without some tricks, even if Xu Taiping becomes the president, he will not be able to do anything. It doesn't make any sense." Ah Jiu said in a low voice.
"It depends on what Taiping will do next." Liu Kechou said in a deep voice, "The reason why he brought us here may be to establish his authority. You all should cheer up and don't embarrass Taiping."
Several people around nodded.
The group walked into the headquarters of the Chinese Martial Arts Association and then went up to the huge conference hall on the second floor.
This huge conference hall was already full of people.
These people are all members of the Chinese Martial Arts Association, as well as some standing committee members. Sitting on the stage opposite these people are representatives of the five permanent directors, and there is an empty seat in front of these representatives. This seat , which is the position of president.
Xu Taiping and Zhou Weidao walked into the conference hall together. The originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet.
"Hello everyone." Xu Taiping smiled and greeted everyone present.
No one paid any attention to Xu Taiping. After all, Xu Taiping was just a lone ranger. He had no sect in the martial arts world and didn’t know any martial arts people. Everyone’s biggest understanding of him came from the last meeting to select committee members. Now After so many days, the original committee member suddenly became the president. This was still breaking news for many people, so everyone kept quiet.
"Mr. Xu, according to the rules, you are still only a committee member, so you can only sit down below. There will be an induction ceremony, which will be presided over by me. After the induction ceremony is over, you can go up to the stage to deliver your speech. Before I’ve informed you in advance, so you should be ready, right?”
"Well, you're ready!" Xu Taiping nodded.
Zhou Weidao nodded, and then said, "Mr. Xu, there is a seat in the front row, please sit here!"
As he spoke, Zhou Weidao led Xu Taiping and his men to the first row.
The middle seat in the first row has been vacated.
Everyone knows that Xu Taiping will be the president today, and everyone knows that Xu Taiping will sit here before becoming the president. Everyone naturally knows that they have to give up the front row and middle position to Xu Taiping. This is the easiest The beauty of adulthood is that even the generally reckless Jianghu people know what to do.
Xu Taiping and others sat in the first row, and then Zhou Weidao walked onto the stage.
Zhou Weidao walked to the front of a podium, then cleared his throat and said, "Fellow martial arts comrades, you are here today. I think you already know what happened. Our former president Zhao Qingshan has been arrested for being suspected of corruption and bribery. He was wanted by the police. As early as a few days ago, after the decision of the five permanent directors and all standing committee members, the Chinese Wushu Association Committee decided to remove Zhao Qingshan from his position as president! Fellow martial arts comrades, martial arts does not represent lawlessness. For the sake of the Chinese Wushu Association and the healthy development of the entire martial arts world, former president Zhao Qingshan is a lesson learned from the past. I hope everyone can learn from Zhao Qingshan’s lessons and abide by the law and be strict with themselves for the sake of the Chinese Wushu Association and the healthy development of the entire martial arts world!"
Speaking of this, Zhou Weidao looked around at everyone present, and then said, "Because Zhao Qingshan was removed from the post of president, we have a vacancy for the president. According to the relevant regulations of the Chinese Martial Arts Association, the five permanent directors , discussed it a few days ago, and finally they unanimously decided to elect Xu Taiping as the interim president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association. Now, let us welcome our interim president, Xu Taiping, Mr. Xu with the warmest applause. !”
Following Zhou Weidao's words, bursts of warm applause erupted from the scene. Whether it was true or false, after all, Xu Taiping was now the president. Even if it was temporary, everyone applauded him very much.
"Temporary?" Liu Kechou sat next to Xu Taiping and asked while applauding, "Have they told you before?"
"No." Xu Taiping shook his head with a smile, then stood up and whispered, "I'll go up first, and we'll talk about other things later."
Liu Kechou nodded and said nothing more.
Xu Taiping walked to the front amidst the applause of the crowd, and then took the stage.
Zhou Weidao walked up to Xu Taiping, shook hands with Xu Taiping with a smile, and then said, "Congratulations, President Xu."
"Thank you." Xu Taiping smiled, then walked to the podium, looked at everyone in the audience, cleared his throat and said, "Hello everyone, I am Xu Taiping."
Following Xu Taiping's words, the applause at the scene suddenly stopped.
"A few days ago I received a notice saying that I have been elected as the president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association. It was a bit surprising, and I was also frightened. How could I, Xu Taiping, be the president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association? How could I, Xu Taiping, be the president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association? The president of the association, Zhao Qingshan, who is that? He is the number one person in the Chinese martial arts world. He is a legend who has not been defeated for decades. What about me? I am only the second level of the Heavenly Rank. I am barely in the martial arts supreme list. I am at the bottom of the top ten. To be honest, I don’t think I have the ability to be the president. However, since there are requirements from the organization, then as a martial arts person, I have to stand up and tell the truth. Before today, I have done my best. After making the decision, I must work hard to make the Chinese Martial Arts Association stronger and make everyone's life better. However, just today, I received a phone call. This phone call made me change my mind. I think it’s better if I don’t serve as the president!” Xu Taiping said.
Xu Taiping's words made everyone at the scene quiet down. They did not expect that Xu Taiping would not be the president in the end after such a long conversation!
"President Xu, this is not child's play. You can't say you can be a leader if you want to be a leader, and you can't be a leader if you don't want to be a leader!" the Wu-Dang Clan representative said with a frown.
"I... have difficulties." Xu Taiping said with an embarrassed expression, "I have offended a very powerful organization, so if I become the president, it will inevitably affect our Chinese Martial Arts Association. When the time comes, our Chinese Martial Arts Association will Therefore, I will be ashamed for the rest of my life if I am implicated by the other party."
Upon hearing Mrs. Xu's words, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn.
"Who did you offend?" the Wu-Tang Clan representative asked.
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it, anyway, it is a very powerful company. They have issued a bounty of 5 billion US dollars today in order to take my life. They also said that any organization or individual who dares to cover me will be punished. They attacked mercilessly. Our Chinese Martial Arts Association has developed for so many years to reach its current scale. I don't want it to be destroyed in my hands!" Xu Taiping shook his head firmly.
Hearing Xu Taiping's words, many people were quite moved. These days, when encountering problems, everyone wishes to grab a few more people to shoulder the burden with them. There are too few people like Xu Taiping who take the initiative to push people away. .
Many people in the martial arts world have the intention of punishing the strong and supporting the weak. Now that Xu Taiping said this, many people's spirit of punishing the strong and supporting the weak suddenly came out. Although they were not as strong as Xu Taiping, some people still said, "President Xu, what are you afraid of? Our Chinese Martial Arts Association has never been afraid of anyone!"
"Yes, the reason why our Chinese Martial Arts Association has the current scale is because of unity. When one person suffers, all parties support him. President Xu, let alone one organization offering a reward for you, even if several organizations come together, as long as you are our President, we will definitely support you!" someone shouted.
"President Xu, since we have chosen you as our president, we are destined to share weal and woe with you. No matter who wants to buy your life, they must pass our test first!" Zhou Weidao said excitedly.
"President Xu, you might as well tell me which organization you have offended?" said the representative of the Wu-Tang Clan.
"This organization...is kbx company!" Xu Taiping hesitated and said.
As soon as Xu Taiping said these words, the scene suddenly became quiet. Even the martial arts people knew how awesome KBX was.
"You also know that kbx company is very powerful, so I'd better not be the president, so as not to affect the Chinese Martial Arts Association!" Xu Taiping sighed and shook his head.
"Amitabha, President Xu, the reason why the Chinese Martial Arts Association can unite the power of all Chinese martial arts is because we are united and we will not be afraid of anyone's challenge. Since we have decided to make you our president, whether it is kbx company , or any other powerful organization, they are all nothing in our eyes. If they want to deal with you, they must first get over our Chinese Martial Arts Association!" said the representative of Shaolin Temple with his hands clasped together.
"Am I, the great Chinese martial arts world, still afraid of a KBX company like him?" the representative of the Emei faction also said.
"Kbx Company is just a foreigner's company. As long as he dares to enter China, I will never let him come back!" the representative of Chen Style Tai Chi said coldly.
"President Xu, since we have elected you as our president, your honor and disgrace are also our honor and disgrace. After the meeting is over, you can negotiate with KBX Company in the name of the Chinese Martial Arts Association and let them Cancel the reward. If they are willing, then we can not argue with them about this matter. If they are not willing, then the Chinese Martial Arts Association and the Chinese Martial Arts will definitely let the kbx company understand that I, the president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association, am not everyone. If we can, we will use all our resources to destroy KBX!" the representative of the Wu-Tang Clan said with a serious face.
"Fuck kbx company!"
"As long as kbx dares to attack you, the president, I will go abroad and destroy their company!"
There were bursts of shouts in the conference hall.
"Thank you all, thank you. I didn't expect that you would actually be willing to make enemies of kbx company for my sake! I'm really touched. We are all people in the martial arts world and people of temperament. I don't have anything else to say. President, I will take it. With you here, I am not afraid even if it is a KBX company, let alone a KBX company!" Xu Taiping Yan Han burst into tears, waving his hands and shouting excitedly!
"Now, Taiping's reward list will probably be withdrawn!" Liu Kechou said in a low voice.
"Awesome, awesome!" Yue Tutu and others praised while applauding.
