"Freya, have you thought it through?" Xu Yi asked Freya with a serious expression.
Freya didn't hesitate too much as she nodded at Xu Yi with a serious expression.
"Yes, sir father, I've thought it through."
"Then what is your decision?" Xu Yi asked again.
Freya took a deep breath and looked at Stiel with a trace of worry on her face. Her eyes swept over Agnes and the others who were also worried before finally looking at Xu Yi. She met Xu Yi's calm gaze and replied, "Sir father, my decision ….. is to take over the position of New Flyer."
As soon as her voice fell, the people around her all let out a sigh of relief and their expressions instantly relaxed.
Although before this, everyone believed that Freya would take over the position of New Flyer's chairman and replace Xu Yi in leading the New Flyer.
But Xu Yi kept emphasizing that he would give Freya a chance to make her own choice when she turned twenty five.
This caused many people to feel worried.
This worry wasn't only because of Freya, but also because of the New Flyer.
If Freya unexpectedly didn't want to take over the New Flyer, then where would Xu Yi find a suitable successor?
Xu Yi had determined a long time ago that Freya was his only successor, so only Freya had the qualifications to take over the position of New Flyer's chairman.
As for the other children, even if Stiel was Xu Yi's remaining son, they didn't have the qualifications.
If Freya didn't want to take over, wouldn't that mean that the next chairman of New Flyer would be someone other than the Xu Family?
Although no one doubted that Xu Yi still had a strong influence on New Flyer, it was still a cause for concern.
Therefore, in many people's eyes, Freya taking over as the president of the New Flyer was a happy scene for everyone.
However, Xu Yi wasn't happy about Freya's decision. Instead, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Freya, are you sure this is what you really think?
Is this a decision you made after careful consideration? "
Freya smiled, her big eyes narrowed into a pair of beautiful crescent moons, showing that she was in a good mood.
"Father, I know what you're worried about.
Don't worry, this is my own decision. No one is pressuring me.
Even if it's my mother … "
Freya turned to look at Stiel. Then, she walked over and held Stiel's arm.
"Even my mother didn't mention much about this. She even often told me that she hoped that I could live a happy life."
Although Stiel was over fifty years old, because of the elven race's secret technique, she still looked like she was in her twenties. She didn't even look older than Freya. Standing next to Freya, she looked more like her older sister than her mother.
Hearing Freya's words, Stiel sighed and said, "Xu Yi, because you're the president of New Flyer, you're too busy. You don't have much time to stay at home and even less time to accompany us.
I don't want Freya to be like you, so busy that she forgets the meaning of life. "
The corner of Xu Yi's eye twitched. He couldn't help but curse in his heart.
If they were talking about work, Stiel as the president of the New Moon Chamber of Commerce was no less busy than him as the president of the New Flyer.
Even when the New Moon Chamber of Commerce was developing rapidly, Stiel as the president had to do a lot of things herself. This caused her to be away from home much more than Xu Yi.
Now that she said that Xu Yi didn't have enough time to accompany his family, Xu Yi felt a bit dissatisfied.
Of course, now was not the time to argue about this. Xu Yi thought for a bit and asked Freya with a bit of curiosity, "Freya, actually I always thought that you would refuse this responsibility.
After all, you've always told me that you want to live a free life.
Now that you want to be the president of the New Flyer, do you understand the meaning of this position? "
Freya giggled and jumped over to hug Xu Yi's arm and shook it.
"Father, do you think that I haven't done anything in the past few years?
I've long understood this position and the terrifying pressure that comes with being the president.
But I've thought about it carefully. If a person doesn't do something difficult while they're young, they'll definitely regret it in the future. "
"Are you treating being the president as a challenge?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.
"Un, at least for now." Freya looked at Xu Yi with undisguised admiration.
"Respected father, you were the one who created the New Flyer and led it to this point.
Of course you're the greatest president of the New Flyer, but my goal is to surpass you! "
Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh loudly, "Very good!
You have ambition! "
After saying this, he put his arm around Freya's shoulder and turned her in a half circle. He let her face the crowd and loudly announced, "Everyone, I now officially announce to everyone that I, Xu Yi, will no longer be the president of the New Flyer from today onwards.
As for the president position, it will temporarily be held by Freya, who I've proposed.
Who supports this proposal?
Who objects? "
Of course, no one objected.
Xu Yi waited quietly for a moment. Then, he raised his voice again and said, "Well then, I now announce that Freya will be the acting president of the New Flyer from today onwards!"
After a moment of silence in the large auditorium of the New Flight Commerce Main Base, a storm of applause instantly broke out.
Countless faint blue magic lights that represented the operation of the Magic Camera rang out, firmly recording this scene.
He believed that in less than two days, everything that happened in front of him would appear in all the newspapers of the Sines Continent and everyone would know about it.
The importance of changing the president of the New Flyer was comparable to the change of the emperors of two empires!
###
As expected, the news of the New Flyer changing its president spread throughout Sines in the shortest amount of time possible.
No one was surprised by Freya's replacement.
This was because ever since Freya participated in the affairs of the New Flyer for the first time and was known by the public, the large newspapers had placed a large amount of attention on this girl who was "born with a golden spoon in her mouth".
Various matters and rumours related to Freya had also spread through Sines over the years.
Everyone knew that she was Xu Yi's only recognized successor, so it was natural for her to take over the position of the New Flyer's president. No one was surprised by this.
Compared to this, what people cared about was what Xu Yi would do after he left his position as president.
Although no one doubted that Xu Yi could still control the New Flyer, he was no longer the president of the New Flyer in name. He couldn't command everything in the New Flyer like before.
In the end, the successor was Freya, which was both good and bad for Xu Yi.
The good thing was that the leader of the New Flyer was his daughter, so the New Flyer was still firmly in his hands.
The bad thing was that because Freya was his daughter, she could naturally take over all kinds of power from him. Xu Yi couldn't complain too much about this, because after all, he was the one who personally pushed Freya to the position of president.
Therefore, after Freya took over the position of president, Xu Yi would definitely reduce his influence on the New Flyer and give Freya enough space to perform.
So in reality, what would Xu Yi do?
Xu Yi, who was still being watched by countless people, didn't make them wait for too long.
He quickly made it clear to everyone what he was going to do next.
After retiring from the position of president, Xu Yi suddenly appeared in the capital of the Kandla Empire, Wimbledon City, after disappearing in front of everyone for a full two months. He participated in the annual magic machine industry conference of the continent.
This was originally a very normal thing, because the New Flyer was bound to be the protagonist of this conference, and as the president of the New Flyer, Xu Yi, as long as he participated, he would definitely be the core of the conference.
But this time, because he had resigned from the position of president of the New Flyer, it was the first time Xu Yi participated in this conference in his own name.
However, Xu Yi, who appeared at the conference, still attracted everyone's attention without any difficulty.
But Xu Yi didn't mention anything about the New Flyer from beginning to end. Even if someone took the initiative to mention it, he would change the topic.
Everyone could see that Xu Yi was deliberately revealing his current identity to everyone, trying to get rid of the brand of the New Flyer.
However, whether or not anyone would really see it that way was a matter worth debating …
Of course, not discussing the New Flyer didn't mean that Xu Yi had nothing to do at this conference.
On the contrary, he was very active in this conference, even more so than every time he participated in this conference in the past.
At the conference, Xu Yi said that he hoped to establish a magic machine industry technology foundation, dedicated to encouraging technological breakthroughs in the magic machine industry.
As long as someone could make a breakthrough in the magic machine industry technology, they would receive a high reward from this foundation.
As long as you could prove that you had the opportunity to make an important breakthrough, you could also receive the support of the foundation.
At first, many people were puzzled by this.
Vigorously researching and developing technology related to the magic machine industry was something that all the countries in the Sines, the majority of chambers of commerce, and countless people were actively participating in.
Even if there was no foundation set up by Xu Yi, a bunch of people would still desperately invest in it.
What was the point of Xu Yi creating such a so-called foundation?
But after listening to Xu Yi's detailed explanation and serious analysis, everyone realized that Xu Yi's plan was much bigger than they thought.
Think about it, the New Flyer could completely represent the pinnacle of the magic machine industry technology.
And as the president … oh no, the former president, Xu Yi, was the benchmark of the magic machine industry in everyone's eyes.
The magic machine industry technology foundation that he founded and led was bound to become the most authoritative organization in the magic machine industry technology in people's minds.
This … could be compared to the previous Continental Sorcerers Guild.
It was just that the Continental Sorcerers Guild was responsible for evaluating the individual level of the mages.
But Xu Yi's magic machine industry technology foundation directly evaluated the technology itself, raising the level by a lot.
Not to mention, what he could do was far more than just evaluating …
