Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu are like evergreen trees among the high ranks of the Greater China Region.
Whether it's Xiahou Qi or Shen Peishen, no matter who steps down or takes the stage, their positions remain incredibly stable.
The reason is simple.
Under Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu, each has gathered their own group of people, forming a solid foundation. No matter who becomes the leader, they need their support and need them to organize people and get things done.
Though Shang Dadong and Zhao Xinyu have each formed their own "small factions" and are greedy for profit, they operate in a more subtle way, not ostentatious, and their appetite is far from as grand as Shen Peishen's. Moreover, after each time they benefit, they conceal themselves for a while, meticulously cleaning up any "loose ends", making it difficult for anyone to catch hold of them.
Furthermore, they act within bounds, knowing which red lines should never be crossed!
