10474 Chapter 10473-

"It's my turn?"

chu hantian's gaze swept across everyone's faces, especially between kong shenglin and gu jiumu. he even stopped for a moment.

After a while, Chu Hantian finally said, " "I give up."

everyone was speechless.

Naturally, Chu Hantian was not on Kong shenglin's side.

the chu clan used to be the most powerful clan in the country. however, they were forced to split up. even the previous clan leader died in the internal strife of the clan, which caused them to suffer a great loss. they had not recovered until today.

however, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. even though the chu clan had gone downhill, they were still able to firmly hold a seat on the highest board of directors.

Especially after Chu Hantian's sudden appearance, not only did the Chu clan stop its decline, but it even showed signs of revival!

this naturally led to the suppression of kong shenglin, the number one figure.

after all, even though he didn't directly intervene in the chu family's internal strife back then, he had single-handedly planned it. to put it bluntly, he was the one who had personally dismembered the chu family.

in the entire board of directors, if there was anyone who would challenge kong shenglin's authority, it would be chu hantian.

On this point, even Gu jiumu had to step aside.

however, this did not mean that he was in an alliance with gu jiumu.

although they had a common enemy, kong shenglin, and similar interests on many major matters, they also had huge differences.

while chu hantian was against kong shenglin, he would not take the initiative to speak up for gu jiumu.

forfeiting was his attitude.

thus, all eyes were once again focused on gu jiumu, waiting for the final reaction of this true big shot.

gu jiumu slowly opened his mouth and spat out two words, " "denied."

“……”

everyone was in an uproar.

It was not an objection, but a denial!

the expressions of the group of big shots were wonderful.

Although these two words had the same meaning, they had completely different meanings in the Supreme Board of Directors!

an objection was just a normal vote. in the end, it would only be counted as an objection vote. if the objection vote could not reach an absolute majority, the objection would be invalid. the final result would still be passed normally and implemented in the name of the supreme board of directors.

a veto would directly veto the entire voting result!

in other words, no matter what the result of the vote was, as long as gu jiumu used his one veto vote, the entire voting process would be invalid!

it was no exaggeration to say that one veto vote was the supreme privilege given by the supreme board of directors.

its existence could allow the individual will of a big shot to override the collective will of the supreme board of directors!

at first glance, this privilege sounded too overbearing and even unreasonable. to a certain extent, it would greatly affect the order of the supreme board of directors.

However, in reality, this was the Supreme Board of Directors, and even the foundation of the Alliance of divine Academies!

For the Supreme Board of Directors, the most unbearable situation wasn't the fact that they couldn't come to an agreement during their internal meetings.

The worst thing was that after it gave an official resolution, it would not be truly executed.

That would be the most serious blow to his authority!

therefore, in order for the supreme board of directors to maintain their supreme authority, they had to win over those who could actually veto the final decisions.

among them, the most important ones were naturally these extremely powerful top-tier giants.

the existence of the supreme board of directors could be explained in one sentence: all the top bosses were in agreement.

If any of the top bosses disagreed with any of the issues, then the issue would not be passed by vote.

Because as long as they were determined, even if the meeting voted for it, the top leaders could rely on their individual strength and influence to forcibly veto it on a material level.

In order to avoid confrontation between these top Giants, the Supreme Board of Directors gave them the power to veto.

the existence of this privilege regulation had caused countless disputes and discussions since ancient times.

to this day, there were many people who were seriously dissatisfied with it and even went to spread the news that they wanted to abolish it.

it was just that these people with real power in the divine college alliance collectively chose to ignore this.

in fact, almost all the wise people in the country were dissatisfied with the divine college alliance, but they agreed from the bottom of their hearts with the official privilege regulation of one veto.

This was because they knew very well that it was not the Supreme Board of Directors who had given these bigshots special privileges. Instead, it was these bigshots who had given the Supreme power to the Supreme Board of Directors!

once the top leaders chose to go to war, the supreme board of directors would fall apart instantly, and the entire kingdom of god on land would fall into an endless abyss that was like an apocalypse.

No one could afford to pay that price.

having said that, just as there were only three people who had the right to vote by force, there were only three people who had the right to veto.

kong shenglin, gu jiumu, and chu hantian.

As for the other top board members like Xi Rulai, although they were also recognized as big shots, they were still far from being able to overrule the collective will by themselves.

in fact, according to the membership system of the supreme board of directors, only those who had the power to veto the decision would be invited.

in other words, in theory, every newly joined big shot would be given a veto vote.

However, the problem was that any individual or force would rise and fall, and there would always be a time when their strength would shrink.

the supreme board of directors was a pure authority, and the so-called qualifications were of no use here.

However, in order to save the face of the big shots and to reduce unnecessary disputes, the Supreme Board of Directors did not set up an exit mechanism at the beginning of its establishment.

in theory, once a big shot, he would be a big shot for life.

however, although the weakened big shots wouldn't be kicked out of the supreme board of directors, they would have their veto power taken back.

otherwise, once the one-vote veto power, which did not live up to its name, existed in large numbers, the supreme board of directors was bound to fall into endless wrangling in meetings, and then be substantially paralyzed.

That was why there was the difference between the so-called big shots and top-tier big shots.

there were nine big shots, and only three of them were true top-tier big shots.

the meeting room fell silent.

everyone knew that gu jiumu would defend lin yi, but they didn't think that he would do it to this extent!

Gu jiumu did have the power to veto, and as long as he said the word, he could remove the Board of Directors from suppressing Lin Yi.
