Chapter 410: One-Vote Veto Right

Jiang Su's gaze fell on his son below the stage, his eyes flashing with a scorching light, "A Jin, come up."

Jiang Liangjin lowered his head to glance at his childhood sweetheart beside him, and only after receiving the signal did he rise and walk toward the stage.

Mu Youyu waved at him, and Mu Xi took the opportunity to shift over and sit beside him.

Qing An took advantage of his walking, snatched the crown just given to him from Mu Xin's hand, and placed it on his sister's head.

Mu Youyu helplessly tidied her hair, her thoughts not on the crown, and she didn't take it off.

Jiang Liangjin walked onto the stage, and the media reporters below immediately adjusted their lighting equipment, cameras flashing continuously as they followed his figure.

Bright light shone on him, the boy stood quietly beside Jiang Su, his presence actually not lacking at all.

Jiang Su moved slightly to the side, his tone calm and unhurried: "Starting today, all 72% of the shares under my name in the Jiang Consortium will be formally transferred into Jiang Liangjin's name. The shares under my beloved's name in the Shen clan will also be transferred this afternoon."

"Effective immediately, he will assume the position of president of the Jiang Consortium, fully responsible for the consortium's operational decisions and so on."

Jiang Liangjin: "Finally, not the beloved son."

"I will retain the chairman's seat, merely as an advisor, not participating in management." Jiang Su's gaze fell on his son, he rarely showed a hint of softness, good days were finally coming.

The crowd erupted in an uproar; even though rumors had circulated beforehand, those present hadn't expected Jiang Su to say "all" rather than "part."

With all 72% of the shares given to him, isn't Jiang Su just a chairman with zero shares, an empty shell?

This way, Jiang Liangjin becomes the largest shareholder in the Jiang Consortium! He holds absolute control, possessing a true one-vote veto power—one person can veto all shareholder rights.

Adding the shares from the Shen family, everyone present understood what this meant in their hearts.

From today onward, Jiang Liangjin is truly the power-holder wielding real authority; Jiang Chairman, this is not a transfer of power but a veiled abdication.

He's only sixteen...

Countless eyes below stared at him; someone sucked in a breath of cold air, they exchanged glances, there was envy as well as dissent.

Jiang Liangjin was completely unaware, or rather, he simply didn't care.

Many perceptive people had already begun to calculate in their minds how they would deal with this nouveau riche in the future.

"Jiang Chairman really is willing to relinquish all power—taking over the Jiang family at sixteen, that's far too early."

"What's early about it? Haven't you seen Mu Nian of the Mu family? He also started handling family affairs in high school and took over upon reaching adulthood."

"This young master of the Jiang family has been groomed as an heir since childhood—what's there to be reluctant about?"

"It's different; when Mu Nian took over, the former Mu chairman still retained some shares, but Jiang Chairman gave everything away clean and clear."

"The one from the Song family became chairman before turning twenty."

"Their ages differ, so they can't be compared."

"……"

Jiang Su handed a document to his son, patted his shoulder, and entrusted him with his words: "From now on, it's up to you."

Jiang Liangjin took it, his face showing no expression, merely giving a slight nod, "Understood."

Applause rang out across the venue, lasting without cease.

Some guests below couldn't help but mutter softly: "Is that it? The newly appointed president just went on stage—shouldn't he say a few words?"

"You know Jiang Shao's temperament—just getting him on stage is already good."

"That's also……"

The online livestream chat had already been flooded with bullet comments, all uniformly praising.

Occasionally, comments like "so handsome", "husband", "dream lover" would pop up—of the sort that, if the brothers saw them, they'd want to find someone to shut down the commentary.

Jiang Su obviously also accustomed to his son's reticence, picked up the microphone to smooth things over, then stepped to the side, completely leaving the center stage to his son.

Shen Ningmu had previously seen him speak quite a bit at school… No, for the Shen family banquet this afternoon, she needed to prepare a script in advance; she couldn't just gloss over it.

Mu Youyu gazed at the composed boy on stage, suddenly feeling a bit dazed.

The little boy who used to run behind her had already grown into someone capable of standing on his own.

She was lost in thought when she saw Jiang Liangjin's gaze sweep through the crowd, landing precisely on her; the corner of his mouth curled again, and he mouthed "soon."

Mu Youyu's heart skipped a beat, she understood, and she mouthed the word "good."

Mu Xi read it as "a lot", interpreted it differently, and laughed, saying: "Sister also wants some?"

Upon hearing that, Mu Nian, Mu Xin, Mu Xianqi, Song LuXiao, Song Yusui, and Lu Yuchu all turned their gazes in unison toward the sister, as if a nod from her would let them sign an agreement on the spot.

Mu Youyu immediately waved her hands, "Brothers, aren't you afraid I'll ruin the company?"

Mu Nian was completely unfazed, "What's the big deal? If you want, I'll just give you the nominal title of president, let others handle everything while you lie back and collect money—how about that?"

Lu Yuchu: "You're really stingy."

Song Yan immediately followed: "Stingy ghost."

Mu Yichen: "Miser."

Mu Yichi added: "Stingy ghost."

Song LuXiao looked him up and down with a hint of disdain, "Can't tell, older brother Nian."

Just holding a nominal title, you can't even let your sister experience the myriad wonders of the world, the joy of managing a company.

Mu Nian: "……"

Mu Xianqi, who had wanted to say something similar, was glad she hadn't spoken.

The elders just loved watching the kids argue and make noise, so they stayed silent.

Someone spoke up to make a comparison, and Mu Xin hurriedly took the chance to express loyalty, his voice softened with indulgence: "It's fine, brother has plenty of money, enough for dear ones to play around however they like."

Qing An gave a light cough, "If sister wants, I'll give her my inheritance rights as well."

It's all just nominal; better to hang the name of the M Guo queen.

Song Huaiyu spoke solemnly: "You're recruiting child labor."

Song Huaixian: "Who cares about you?"

The elders were delighted beyond measure.

Mu Youyu spoke up to smooth things over: "Don't look at me, look at the stage."

Applause on stage gradually faded.

The MC stepped forward two steps, smiling, and handed the microphone to the birthday person: "Young Master Jiang, say a few words?"

The audience hadn't been quiet for a few seconds before cheering erupted.

"Say a few words, just say a few words!"

"A Jin, say a few words, you usually have plenty to say to Mu Youyu, right?"

"A Jin, you weren't like this before, don't be shy!"

Half the guests couldn't help turning their heads toward the source of the cheering, wondering who dared to be so bold as to cause a ruckus at Young Master Jiang's birthday banquet?

Everyone glanced at a nearby table where the peers of C Shi's elite families sat, many of them Young Master Jiang's classmates.

The loudest voice came from Yu Ci, who had already stood up.

Seeing it was Yu Ci and company, the crowd withdrew their gazes; indeed, these were the people who dared to joke with Young Master Jiang.

Jiang Liangjin glanced at Yu Ci, then turned to Gu Xingnan, who understood and reached out to pull the noisy Yu Ci back to his seat.

He then took the microphone, his gaze returning to that direction, and said, "Thank you all for coming; I'm very happy."
