Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

The corner of Zhang Sheng's mouth curled up slightly:

"Alright then, since General Manager Huo is so determined, we won't try to keep you. The Company will buy back all your personal shares at market price. As for these shares, they won't end up in my hands, nor in any individual's hands, but will be held in the name of the Company collective. Who agrees, who opposes?"

Zhang Sheng looked at the crowd; among the executives, not a single person opposed.

Even when Huo Guoqiang hadn't fallen, no one dared to lightly voice opposition in front of Zhang Sheng, let alone now that Huo Guoqiang has already fallen. If anyone still fails to read the room, they'll likely have to scram out along with Huo Guoqiang!

Seeing the crowd like this, Huo Guoqiang said nothing more.

He stood up, turned, and walked away.

This conference room no longer had a seat for him.

Taking the money and leaving was clearly the wisest choice.

If he stayed on, he'd only become a laughingstock for others!

Huo Guoqiang stood up and left, and no one said a word of farewell to him.

Zhang Sheng outright ignored his departure and continued:

"Good, since no one opposes, that shows everyone is united. This makes me feel that our Company will surely achieve great things in the future!"

At this point Zhang Sheng announced another matter:

"Effective immediately, Huo Zhi Hui is dismissed from the post of General Manager of the Liguo Mountain Personnel & Labor Branch Company. Who agrees, who opposes?"

Still no one opposed.

Huo Zhi Hui himself didn't come, but it doesn't matter.

He didn't hold shares to begin with.

So even if he were present, he couldn't resist.

Huo Guoqiang, his biggest backer, has fallen; there's no longer any place for him to survive in Liguo Mountain — it's only natural.

Not to mention, many senior managers have long found Huo Zhi Hui an eyesore, considering him an incompetent despicable person. Without Huo Guoqiang backing him, his own ability could never have gotten him to his current position!

Seeing no opposition, Zhang Sheng nodded with satisfaction.

"Next is the third item of today's Shareholders' Meeting..."

Zhang Sheng was about to speak the third item.

At this moment, Zhang Tianhe couldn't help but speak up:

"General Manager Zhang, this third item — you wouldn't be trying to chase me out too, would you?"

Zhang Tianhe's gaze at Zhang Sheng was full of hostility.

After all, he and Huo Guoqiang were in the same boat.

Now Zhang Sheng, right in front of him, dragged Huo Guoqiang the captain down; Zhang Tianhe didn't feel he would be safe.

However, Zhang Sheng revealed a kindly smile:

"General Manager Zhang, you misunderstand me. I never thought of chasing you away. You're a big shot sent from the City; Liguo Mountain's development still depends on you and your Tianhe Real Estate!"

"Hmph!" Zhang Tianhe snorted coldly, "Good that you know. Don't think just because you can strut around a small County Town you're number one under heaven. To put it bluntly, once you leave this County Town, you, Zhang Sheng, are nothing!"

Though Zhang Tianhe gave Zhang Sheng no face like this, Zhang Sheng wasn't angry; instead he smiled and said:

"Many thanks to General Manager Zhang for these words. Though harsh to hear, they are good medicine bitter to the tongue, loyal advice grating to the ear. You're quite right — once I leave this County Town, I'm nothing. So Liguo Mountain's future development still relies on you, General Manager Zhang!"

Then he spoke the third item for today:

"This third item: I propose General Manager Zhang serve as our Company's Chairman. Who agrees, who opposes?"

These words caused all the executives to be surprised.

Everyone thought that after Huo Guoqiang was chased out, Zhang Sheng would become Chairman himself and personally control all of Liguo Mountain, but never expected he'd actually propose letting this outsider Zhang Tianhe be Chairman!

Isn't that equivalent to just snatching a big piece of fatty meat and then immediately handing it over for someone else to eat?

Is Zhang Sheng that kind-hearted?

Even Wang Erhai couldn't figure out what operation Zhang Sheng was pulling!

Not to mention Wang Erhai; Wu Moli, who was extremely close to Zhang Sheng, also wore a face full of puzzlement at this moment.

In her heart she was quite dissatisfied with Zhang Sheng's decision.

If you yourself don't want the Chairman's seat, you could totally let me, Wu Moli, sit there!

Giving it to this outsider Zhang Tianhe — what's that supposed to mean?

However, Wu Moli only dared grumble a little in her heart; to make her speak her mind — she absolutely wouldn't dare!

"Zhang Sheng, are you sure you really want me to be Chairman?"

Zhang Tianhe was also baffled by Zhang Sheng's decision.

Zhang Sheng, however, looked dead serious and nodded:

"This Shareholders' Meeting — I wouldn't dare joke! General Manager Zhang, could it be you don't want to be Chairman?"

Zhang Tianhe thought for a moment:

"Since you propose I do it, then I'll accept the duty unhesitatingly!"

Zhang Sheng laughed:

"With General Manager Zhang's ability, being qualified as Liguo Mountain's Chairman is more than sufficient — that's precisely why I nominated you!"

"Since no one opposes General Manager Zhang as Chairman, this matter is settled. Next, the fourth item! The post of Chief Executive Officer of Liguo Mountain shall be assumed by Wang Erhai. Who agrees, who opposes?"

Zhang Sheng's words once again caused an uproar.

Everyone was utterly astonished.

How long has Wang Erhai been away from Liguo Mountain? He just returned, and he's already become the Chief Executive Officer? What makes him so special!

So quite a few Executives naturally had considerable complaints.

But no one was willing to be the one who sticks their neck out.

After all, after Huo Guoqiang left, Zhang Sheng definitely had absolute decision-making authority inside Liguo Mountain.

No matter who you offend, you cannot offend Zhang Sheng.

However, there was one person who got a bit impatient.

That person was Wu Moli.

"No, General Manager Zhang, on what grounds are you handing the Chief Executive Officer position to Wang Erhai? Wang Erhai has been detached from Liguo Mountain for how many days? Can he handle this position?"

Wu Moli had originally thought that after driving out Huo Guoqiang, Zhang Sheng would be Chairman and she would be Chief Executive Officer, and then Liguo Mountain would be completely under her and Zhang Sheng's control.

But she never expected that Zhang Sheng would completely not play by the rules.

Not only did he yield the Chairman position, he also yielded the Chief Executive Officer position.

Then what was the meaning of them launching this "coup"?

They didn't get a single benefit, right!

Wu Moli took the lead in standing up to oppose, and a crowd of Executives also started having things to say.

"Exactly, Wang Erhai comes back and immediately becomes Chief Executive Officer, how do you convince everyone?"

"In my opinion, this Chief Executive Officer position, either General Manager Zhang you do it yourself, or let General Manager Wu do it, there's no way it should fall to Wang Erhai!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

Wang Erhai spoke up at this time:

"Everyone, I also feel I'm not qualified enough."

He looked at Zhang Sheng:

"General Manager Zhang, why don't you choose someone more capable? I only came today to cast a vote, planning to leave after voting, I never thought about fighting for the Chief Executive Officer position."

Wang Erhai was speaking the truth; he really didn't want to return to Liguo Mountain and continue scheming and fighting.

He still preferred enjoying the comfortable life in the Township.

However, Zhang Sheng said:

"Erhai, this position belongs to no one but you, hope you won't refuse!"

Having said that, he spoke to everyone again:

"I propose letting Wang Erhai be Chief Executive Officer. If anyone has objections, say it out directly, I'll make a good note of it in my heart."

Zhang Sheng's last sentence deliberately slowed in pace, seeming to imply more than was said.

Everyone immediately fell silent as winter cicadas, no longer raising objections.

Even Wu Moli only dared to be angry but not speak, not daring to speak recklessly anymore.

After ten-odd seconds, seeing no one object, Zhang Sheng's mouth curled up:

"Since no one objects, then okay, this matter is settled. Effective immediately, General Manager Zhang Tianhe assumes the Chairman position, General Manager Wang Erhai assumes the Chief Executive Officer position!"
