Chu Hantian's playful eyes swept over everyone's faces, especially between Kong Shenglin and Gu Jiumu, and he paused for a moment.
After a while, Chu Hantian finally said: "I abstain."
Everyone was speechless.
Chu Hantian is naturally not from the Kong Shenglin family.
The Chu family used to be so arrogant and recognized as the number one family in the country. However, it ended up being a divided family. Even the previous head of the family died in the family's internal strife. As a result, his vitality was severely damaged and has not been relieved to this day.
come over.
However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if the Chu family goes downhill, it can still firmly occupy a seat on the top board of directors.
Especially after Chu Hantian was born, the Chu family not only stopped its decline, but even showed signs of revival!
And this will naturally lead to pressure from Kong Shenglin, the number one person.
After all, although Kong Shenglin did not directly intervene in the shocking civil strife in the Chu family, he planned it with his own hands. To put it bluntly, the Chu family was dismembered by his own hands.
Looking at the entire top board of directors, if there is anyone who will challenge Kong Shenglin's authority the most, it is Chu Hantian.
At this point, even Gu Jiumu had to step aside.
However, this does not mean that he and Gu Jiumu are allies.
Although they have a common enemy, Kong Shenglin, and have the same interests and demands on many major issues, they also have huge differences.
Although Chu Hantian was opposed to Kong Shenglin, at this time, he would not take the initiative to speak out for Gu Jiumu.
Abstaining is his attitude.
As a result, all eyes were once again focused on Gu Jiumu, and everyone was waiting for the final reaction of this real giant.
Gu Jiumu spoke slowly and spit out two words: "Rejected."
"..."
The whole place was in an uproar.
Not against, but against!
The expressions of all the giants are wonderful.
Although these two words have the same meaning, when placed on the Supreme Board of Directors, they represent completely different meanings!
Objection is just a normal voting statement, and will only be counted as an objection in the end. If the number of objections cannot account for an absolute majority, the objection will be invalid, and the final result will still be passed normally and implemented in the name of the Supreme Board of Directors.
To reject it is to directly reject the entire voting result!
In other words, no matter what the voting results are, as long as Gu Jiumu uses his veto power, the entire previous voting session will be invalid!
It is no exaggeration to say that the veto power is the supreme privilege granted by the Supreme Board of Directors.
Its existence allows the personal will of a certain giant to directly override the collective will of the entire top board of directors!
At first glance, this privilege sounds too overbearing, even unreasonable, and to some extent will greatly damage the operating order of the top board of directors.
However, in fact, this is the foundation for the existence of the Supreme Board of Directors and even the Divine College Alliance!
For the top board of directors, the most unbearable situation is not that there are always naysayers in internal meetings and the inability to reach an agreement.
The worst thing is that after it gave an official decision, it was not actually implemented.
That is the most serious blow to its authority!
Therefore, if the Supreme Board of Directors wants to maintain its supreme authority, it must win over those beings who can actually veto its final decision.
The most important among them are naturally these top giants who are extremely powerful.
If you really want to analyze the existence mechanism of the Supreme Board of Directors, it can be said that the top giants are unanimous.
If any top boss disagrees with any issue, then the issue cannot be voted on.
Because as long as he is determined, even if the meeting votes and passes, the top giants can rely on Tongtian's personal strength and influence to forcibly veto it from a substantive level.
It is precisely in order to avoid such confrontations between top giants that the Supreme Board of Directors gave them a veto power.
The existence of this privilege regulation has caused countless disputes and discussions from ancient times to the present.
To this day, there are many people who are seriously dissatisfied with it and even go to the extent of telling people they want to abolish it.
It's just that the powerful people in the Divine College Alliance collectively chose to ignore this.
In fact, almost all knowledgeable people in the country are dissatisfied with the Divine College Alliance in one way or another, but they only agree with it from the bottom of their hearts regarding the official privilege regulation of the one-vote veto power.
Because they know very well that it is not the top board of directors that has given these top tycoons the privileges, but these top tycoons that have given the top board of directors the supreme power it now has!
Once the top giants choose to go to war, the top board of directors will instantly fall apart, and the entire land-based Kingdom of God will also fall into an endless abyss like a doomsday disaster.
No one can afford that price.
Having said that, just as there are only three people with the right to compulsorily initiate a vote, only these three people have the power to veto.
Kong Shenglin, Gu Jiu Mu, Chu Hantian.
As for the other top directors, such as Xi Tathagata and others, although they are also recognized as giants, there is a big gap between them and the top giants who can effectively veto the collective will on their own.
In fact, according to the membership mechanism of the Supreme Board of Directors, only those Tongtian beings with substantial veto power will be invited to join.
In other words, in theory, every newly joined giant will be given a veto power.
But the problem is that any individual or force will have ups and downs, and there will always be times when their strength shrinks.
As for a pure authority organization like the Supreme Board of Directors, the so-called qualifications are of no use here.
However, in order to save the face of the giants and reduce unnecessary disputes, the Supreme Board of Directors did not set up a corresponding exit mechanism at the beginning of its establishment.
Theoretically, once you are a giant, you will always be a giant.
However, although the giants with shrinking strength will not be forcibly kicked out of the top board of directors, they will have their veto power taken back.
Otherwise, once the one-vote veto power that is not in name is allowed to exist in large numbers, the top board of directors will inevitably fall into endless meeting wrangling, and then become essentially paralyzed.
Therefore, there are what the world calls the so-called giants and the top giants.
There are nine giants, but among them, there are only three genuine top giants.
The meeting fell into silence.
Although everyone had already expected that Gu Jiumu would come forward to defend Lin Yi, they really didn't expect that he would defend him to this extent!
Gu Jiumu does have a veto power. As long as he says the word veto, he can indeed lift the suppression of Lin Yi from the top board of directors at the official level.
