Yang Ruoqian attacked the word asset next.
This was a reasonable attack.
If something could not be named, it could not be valued.
If it could not be valued, the system would have to stop pointing at it with glowing malice.
This logic was elegant.
Yang distrusted elegance, but desperation made him tolerant.
At nine, he summoned the operations manager, finance, Chang Zhiqing, and Lu Shuyuan.
"From today onward, no one may call the venue risk moat an asset."
The operations manager nodded.
Finance nodded.
Chang Zhiqing did not nod.
Yang noticed immediately.
"Why are you not nodding?"
"I am checking which substitute words are allowed."
"None."
"Then how do we refer to it?"
"Do not refer to it."
Finance raised a hand.
Yang disliked this hand because it had never brought snacks.
"Boss Yang, if we do not refer to it, different teams may create different references."
"Good."
"Different references can reveal which teams rely on it most."
Yang stopped.
