Chapter 261: Chapter 181: Whose Home Does the Deity Ultimately Belong To?_3
If David could even eliminate a state governor, then his methods were truly ruthless, and he was not someone to be taken lightly.
"Forget it, let\'s not worry about this matter for now, and focus on the upcoming assessment period instead,"
"Understood."
Amidst the tense atmosphere filtering through the IRS system, the time reached 12:30, and the accounting system was formally shut down.
Bellamy Hadith, Brown Soros and others breathed a sigh of relief; the feared \'tower theft\' had not occurred.
They also managed to retain their current positions, as they had wished.
Lake District Sub-Bureau.
"So that\'s how it is. I was wondering how the Golden Ear Bridge and agricultural bill affairs could\'ve possibly led a governor who had been digging in for nearly eight years to resign voluntarily. Turns out you even managed to handle their Secretary of State and Deputy Governor. You really do have a way with things, Director David,"
After David\'s explanation, William finally understood why Stevenson had resigned so readily.
With such heavy public opinion pressure from the outside and internal power struggles rendering him powerless, resignation was his only option.
"It\'s only because those two weren\'t clean that I was able to catch them,"
David merely stated that he had handled these individuals, but as for how he had done it, he naturally would not reveal his ace card, and William couldn\'t possibly guess it.
"However, it must be said that what you did was absolutely correct. If you had confronted Stevenson directly in your capacity as an IRS official, it would have made you instantly famous across America, but it also would have brought you a lot of trouble in your career. Keeping a low profile is the best strategy for you now,"
William indeed admired David\'s shrewdness in this regard.
"I think so too..."
"But no matter what, other people may not be aware of this matter, but many within the IRS are. If this reaches the ears of our high-level officials at Washington D.C. Headquarters, and considering it\'s now the time of \'Project Deification,\' this could be a plus for you..."
To be honest, William was not very optimistic about David when \'Project Deification\' was first launched.
But after the events involving the two city halls and now Stevenson, his previous views had slowly changed.
The two city halls were one thing, but Stevenson was a governor.
And now, even a supreme ruler of a state had been \'sliced down from his horse\' by David. How could the high-level officials at Washington D.C. Headquarters not appreciate such ability?
Although in terms of background, David might not have the depth of Bellamy Hadith or Brown Soros.
But with such formidable abilities on display, as long as the higher-ups at Washington D.C. Headquarters truly took a liking to him, then David might also have a chance at becoming the deity of \'Project Deification\'!
"Let\'s hope so..."
William nodded slightly, then said, "All right, the assessment period meeting is about to start, let\'s go!"
The two men left the office one after another, heading in the direction of the fifth-floor conference room.
When they arrived at the fifth floor conference room, most people were already present. Seeing David arrive, Keanu, Hector, Hutton and others greeted him one by one.
Then, his gaze searched for others in the seats at the back, quickly locating Ariel and the others, nodding to each of them in turn.
However, when his eyes met Selina\'s, he noticed something odd about her, but David didn\'t pay too much attention to it and soon sat down in a front row seat.
"Good morning everyone, I am your Chief William."
By now, William had already stepped onto the stage, and behind him on the big screen, the national tax performance ranking for all branches appeared.
Previously, when viewing this list, one would have to scroll down quite a bit to find the Lake District Sub-Bureau\'s name.
But there was no need to scroll this time, because in this round of assessment, the Lake District Sub-Bureau, with a total tax performance of 66.563 million, ranked 10th nationwide.
Of course, the reason for placing tenth and achieving 66.563 million was mainly due to David\'s contribution of 62.66 million alone.
The rest of the entire Lake District Sub-Bureau\'s inspectors\' performances added up to nearly only about 4 million.
"This time our Lake District Sub-Bureau has reached a total tax performance of 66.563 million, rising to the 10th position nationwide, primarily thanks to the efforts and contributions of everyone present. I hope in the new assessment period, everyone will continue to strive for excellence."
For some reason, upon hearing William\'s words, many faces in the room felt a sting.
Because reaching this tax performance and ranking was clearly due to David\'s own efforts, and the rest of them contributed less than 4 million in tax revenue combined.
How could that be called relying on their efforts and contributions?
"Now, let\'s take a look at the inspector\'s tax performance leaderboard!"
As he spoke, the screen operator immediately changed the image. The big screen now displayed the national inspector\'s tax performance leaderboard.
At the top, unsurprisingly, was Brown Soros from the New York Manhattan Branch, with a total tax performance of 75.11 million.
In second place was Bellamy Hadith from the Los Angeles Long Beach Branch, with a total of 65.133 million.
David came in third with 62.66 million.

And from the fourth to the tenth place, all had tax performances exceeding 40 million.
Overall, this assessment period showed a leap in numbers compared to the last, whether from first to tenth place or from tenth to a hundredth place.
Of course, the significant increase was not only due to the inspectors\' growing familiarity with the anti-tax evasion bill but also to the motivation provided by \'Project Deification.\'
