Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Liguo Mountain has been relatively peaceful recently.

Ever since Wang Erhai transferred 11% of his equity to Huo Guoqiang, Huo Guoqiang and Zhang Sheng can be said to be evenly matched.

On many major decisions, they can only compromise with each other.

And on minor decisions, they nauseate each other, scheme against each other.

It can be said that internal strife is extremely severe.

Most importantly, Zhang Tianhe, this Tianhe Real Estate Company's boss, although on the surface he stands on Huo Guoqiang's side, in reality he stands more on the side of profit.

If one day Huo Guoqiang can no longer continue to channel profit to Zhang Tianhe, then Zhang Tianhe will absolutely stand on the opposite side of Huo Guoqiang.

Even if he doesn't stand on the opposite side of Huo Guoqiang, he won't support Huo Guoqiang like he does now.

Regarding this, Huo Guoqiang can be said to have a massive headache.

Looking back to the beginning, when he founded Li Guoshan Decoration Company, he never imagined there would be today's situation.

More precisely, he completely never imagined that Li Guoshan Decoration Company would actually develop and grow so rapidly.

In just how much time, it has already occupied over sixty percent of the entire County Town's renovation business; currently the company's business is rapidly expanding toward the City district. After Zhang Tianhe's Tianhe Real Estate helped open a breach, Li Guoshan has also basically gained a firm foothold in the City district.

Gaining a firm foothold means external struggle enters a calm period, and external struggle entering a calm period often means internal struggle will begin to show signs.

Sure enough, Zhang Sheng suddenly announced that tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, a General Shareholders' Meeting would be held, and he would announce an important decision at the meeting.

Zhang Sheng's sudden move left Huo Guoqiang somewhat baffled.

Because just yesterday morning, when the two were discussing company strategic issues, Zhang Sheng had still made a major concession to him; watching Zhang Sheng seemingly bow his head to him, how could he suddenly say he wanted to hold a shareholders' meeting?

As for what this shareholders' meeting's content is, Zhang Sheng didn't say either.

Even when Huo Guoqiang personally called to probe, Zhang Sheng only said, "You'll know when the time comes."

This uncertainty made Huo Guoqiang extremely uneasy.

He summoned Huo Zhihui, wanting uncle and nephew to discuss countermeasures together.

Ever since Zhang Sheng formally entered Li Guoshan as a shareholder, Huo Zhihui's days at Li Guoshan can be described as Wang Xia'er's Spring Festival — each year worse than the last!

Now his decision-making authority at Li Guoshan, among the high-level, has almost no weight left.

Especially those high-level managers who aligned with Zhang Sheng's faction, they treat him even more as if he doesn't exist.

Never mind Wu Moli; even a small supervisor under Wu Moli is very rude to him.

Last meeting he made a small mistake, and that small supervisor pointed it out in front of everyone, causing him to lose all face.

And that small supervisor, not only did he not receive any punishment, he was even publicly praised by Zhang Sheng on the spot, and even got a 3000 salary raise!

Huo Zhihui privately complained to Huo Guoqiang that that small supervisor should just be fired.

Huo Guoqiang also had his own difficulties; running a company is no child's play, how can one act willfully and recklessly?

If he really used strong-arm tactics to pressure, fire that small supervisor, his prestige in the company would absolutely rapidly collapse, causing more high-level managers to lean toward Zhang Sheng's side.

What is power?

Power is that subordinates support you, only then do you have power!

Subordinates don't support you, then even if you're the company Founder, you only count as a fart!

Huo Guoqiang, as an old fox who has crawled and rolled in the business world for many years, how could he not see this point clearly?

So he didn't go fire that small supervisor, instead he gave Huo Zhihui a lesson, telling Huo Zhihui not to always think about playing with women, to put more thought into personal growth.

And at this time, Huo Guoqiang called Huo Zhihui to his side to discuss countermeasures, which was actually also a way of helping Huo Zhihui grow.

However Huo Zhihui wore a tired, lazy face, clearly not taking it to heart:

"Second Uncle, however you decide is how it'll be; anyway I, this Nephew, at tomorrow morning's shareholders' meeting, will absolutely unconditionally support you!"

Huo Guoqiang saw Huo Zhihui's devil-may-care appearance and got angry from the heart:

"Zhi Hui, this attitude of yours isn't too good!"

Huo Zhihui said:

"Last time that small supervisor under Wu Moli scolded me to my face, you didn't fire him either, causing now the whole company top to bottom to treat me as a joke, completely not taking my words seriously; Second Uncle, what kind of attitude do you still want from me?"

Huo Zhihui also has his own difficulties; now his decision-making authority in the company has indeed been weakened a lot, he's almost become a connection household in others' eyes — unlearned, idle, just eating and waiting to die!

Those people seem to have all forgotten that back when Li Guoshan was just founded, he, Huo Zhihui, also put in a great deal of effort!

Huo Guoqiang heard Huo Zhihui say this and couldn't help but sigh.

He doesn't blame Huo Zhihui; one can only blame oneself for decision-making mistakes.

He shouldn't have let Wang Erhai leave back then!

Wang Erhai had ability, had prestige; keeping him by his side, at least wouldn't have let Zhang Sheng take advantage of a vacancy.

And the fuse that led to Wang Erhai leaving Li Guoshan was the establishment of that Public Relations Department.

However Huo Guoqiang doesn't regret the Public Relations Department's establishment; recently for a period, the Song and Dance Troupe inside the Public Relations Department, for Li Guoshan's external expansion, can be said to have rendered meritorious service.

He regrets that when the Public Relations Department was first established, he couldn't control the situation well, letting Wu Moli pick up a bargain and become the Public Relations Department's head.

The turning point of all this began from Wu Moli taking control of the Public Relations Department!

He should have personally vetoed Wu Moli's self-recommendation back then; since subordinates didn't support Huo Zhihui as Public Relations Department head, he should have personally taken the post, or let Wang Erhai take it.

How could such an important position fall onto Wu Moli?

It's not like he didn't know that Wu Moli was a woman Zhang Sheng An planted!

Only pity, hindsight is useless now!

Back then I couldn't see the situation clearly; now I have to pay a bitter price.

"Zhi Hui, not that I'm saying anything against you, but if you had half of Wang Erhai's ability, the two of us, uncle and nephew, wouldn't have ended up in such a passive situation today."

Huo Guoqiang let out a sigh.

He had already caught the scent of danger.

He didn't believe that just because he was the Founder's man, his status was as stable as Mount Tai.

How many company founders were later squeezed out by others?

This kind of thing has long been nothing strange.

If one day he was forced to leave Liguo Mountain, he wouldn't be the least bit surprised.

"Second Uncle, can you stop bringing up Wang Erhai in front of me? You keep saying Wang Erhai is good here and good there, so why don't you just acknowledge Wang Erhai as your nephew, no, acknowledge him as your son!"

Huo Zhihui spoke with resentment.
