Chapter 83: A Coup, A Crisis for the Sky-Piercing Emperor!
here.
Inside the conference room of the Xiao's Real Estate Group.
A young man sat in the main seat.
He was dressed in an expensive luxury brand white suit, with black-rimmed glasses perched on his nose, exuding an air of nobility.
The young man crossed his arms, rested his chin on his hands, and lazily glanced at the group of business elites on either side of him.
Sitting on either side of him were 10 people, all of whom were shareholders of the Xiao Group and veterans of the Xiao Real Estate Group.
After the shareholders come the group's middle and senior management!
Standing behind them, taking meeting minutes, were middle managers, sales managers, and top salespeople from various companies.
The huge conference room had more than 60 people in it.
It is a gathering of elites from all walks of life.
They are all top talents in their respective fields.
This also reveals the strength of the Xiao Group internally!
Although the Xiao Group has been declining in recent years, it has retained a considerable number of talented individuals.
However, at this moment, everyone in the conference room was focused on the young man at the head of the group.
"Let me briefly introduce myself. I am Li Zecheng, and I currently hold a 28% stake in the Xiao Group. I serve as the Administrative Director and General Manager!"
"Today is the first time I've convened a group board meeting!"
"I've called everyone here because I have something very important to announce!"
Li Zecheng slowly stood up, placed his hands on the table, bent over slightly, and leaned forward.
His gaze was like that of a hawk, sweeping over everyone and sending chills down their spines.
The shareholders' expressions changed one after another, all sensing something amiss.
Chairman Xiao Ding has been absent recently, and the company's funds have been transferred to several accounts in installments.
To this day, Xiao Ding has not come forward to offer an explanation.
Instead, it was Xiao Ding's nephew who was the first to step forward and convene a board meeting, bypassing the chairman.
It is clear……
They're trying to force him to abdicate!
Thinking of this, all the shareholders' faces were filled with panic.
A storm is brewing, and the wind is howling!
"Mr. Li, please speak freely. We're all here listening!"
One of the female shareholders said with a smile.
"Mr. Li! Just tell us what's on your mind. You're in charge of the company now, and we all support you!!"
"Yes, yes, we'll listen to whoever lets us make money!"
As soon as an old man started, several shareholders all expressed their opinions.
This made Li Zecheng's smile even brighter.
Everything was indeed under control.
"Alright, in that case, I'll announce it in advance."
"From today onwards, I, Li Zecheng, will assume the position of Chairman of the Xiao Group Real Estate Company!"
"My uncle—former chairman Xiao Ding!"
"He misappropriated company funds, resulting in a shortage of funds in the company's accounts. Not only that, he also sold company shares without authorization, causing the company's stock price to plummet and further leading to a break in the company's cash flow!"
"His actions have had an extremely negative impact on the group!!"
"Therefore, from this moment forward, I demand the removal of Xiao Ding from his position as chairman of the group. I ask all shareholders to express their opinion!"
"Who's in favor? Who's opposed?"
Li Zecheng sneered repeatedly and slowly stood up from his chair.
His gaze was calm yet arrogant as he surveyed everyone.
His words were like a bombshell!
In an instant, a storm was brewing in the once calm meeting room!
Some shareholders looked shocked, speechless, and dumbfounded.
The remaining people all looked at each other, momentarily stunned and speechless.
The atmosphere in the entire conference room fell into a deathly silence!
"I object!"
An elderly man with gray hair stood up shakily.
He stood up, leaning on his cane, and glared fiercely at Li Zecheng!
He is the eldest brother in the group, having worked alongside Xiao Ding for over twenty years. Despite his advanced age, he remains utterly loyal to the group!
"Li Zecheng, you're nothing more than a factory gatekeeper!"
"It was your uncle who took pity on you, pulled you out of the old factory, and painstakingly trained and promoted you!"
"I've only been in charge of the company for a year, and now you're trying to seize power?!"
"You treacherous bastard, you heartless ingrate who eats meat without spitting out the bones!"
"The entire group was built by our older generation with half a lifetime of hard work. Who gives you the right to point fingers?"
"The chairman trusts you so much, treating you like his own son, and yet you try to seize his company!!"
"How can you live with yourself like that! You beast!"
The old man's forehead veins bulged as he raised his cane and pointed at Li Zecheng, cursing him incessantly!
Although he didn't understand Chairman Xiao's whereabouts and actions these past few days...
But after all, their past relationship was so deep...
A scholar dies for a confidant!
He simply couldn't bear to see this usurpation of power happen right before his eyes!
"Ha ha……"
"Director Wang, you're getting on in years, so I won't hold it against you, but let me make this clear from the start."
"The chairman's position should be held by the most capable person."
"Chairman Xiao occupies this position but cannot bring benefits to the company. He is not only delaying his own future, but also the future of all shareholders and even thousands of employees!"
"The shareholders trusted him so much and invested their money, what did he do?"
"You misappropriated company funds, causing the company to run into cash flow problems. Has this chairman considered the future of the company group?"
"And I can save this company."
"After I take office, I will inject 10 billion yuan into the company and become the largest shareholder of the group with 55% of the shares!" Li Zecheng spread his arms and laughed loudly, extremely unrestrained.
"Li Zecheng, what did you say?"
"Where did you get a billion?!"
The elderly Director Wang turned pale instantly.
He slumped back into his chair, utterly defeated!
Pointing at Li Zecheng, he asked in a panic!
"Of course I have my own way."
Li Zecheng turned around with a cold smile and said to Director Wang, "You're old. This is no longer the era for old fogies like you. Resign and retire!"
"you you……"
Director Wang gritted his teeth, about to speak.
Li Zecheng waved his hand expressionlessly, and several security guards immediately came and dragged him away.
Curses and cries filled the air.
It was so horrific that it gave me goosebumps.
The shareholders looked at each other, gasping in shock, fearing that such a thing might happen to them.
"Shareholders, is it difficult to make a choice?"
Li Zecheng tapped the table lightly.
His gaze was now devoid of emotion, making him look like a cold-blooded monarch.
"It's not difficult...it's not difficult!"
A chubby shareholder, wiping away cold sweat, stood up and said obsequiously, "I absolutely support President Li taking the position! No objections!"
"Me too!"
"Me too! I support President Li!"
"Yes! The company's performance was already poor, and then Chairman Xiao moved such a large sum of money, which has caused problems for the company's operations!"
"We are so disappointed!"
"I support President Li!"
