"Hu Wanjia's scale is too small; cooperating with him may not necessarily check Chen Qiang." Wang Dashan, having heard Du Xiaojuan's explanation, still had many doubts.

If we compare the current struggle surrounding Xiao Du Technology to a card game, Hu Wanjia's card is at most a 10, Chen Qiang is a K, Zhang Yong is at least a Q, the people Chen Qiang planted in the board of directors add up to at least a J, and Du Xiaojuan is a 2.

But Du Xiaojuan is a single card; playing her alone can suppress everyone below, yet if Chen Qiang brings in outside investment, that's an A, which can form a straight. If Chen Qiang plays first then, Du Xiaojuan might be utterly powerless to fight back.

And Hu Wanjia's 10 happens to be the key to pinching Chen Qiang's vital point. Don't look at the card's small face value; if Chen Qiang doesn't have a 10, he can't form a straight, nor can he beat Du Xiaojuan to death with one hand of cards.

"Hu Wanjia definitely can't deal with Chen Qiang, nor can he stop the situation where Xiao Du Technology needs financing, but he can become an important link in my struggle for decision-making authority."

Du Xiaojuan explained thus.

Wang Dashan still worried:

"What if, I mean what if, what if Hu Wanjia turns to Chen Qiang at that time, wouldn't your situation become even worse? You also said, this Hu person is profit-driven and unreliable."

Du Xiaojuan said: "So I need you to help."

"Me?"

"Yes, you!" Du Xiaojuan's eyes were firm:

"Use Hu Wanjia to check Chen Qiang, use you to check Hu Wanjia."

"Specifically, what do you want me to do? I'll do as you say." Although Wang Dashan wasn't very clear about how Du Xiaojuan would lay out the plan, he was still very willing to cooperate with Du Xiaojuan.

Du Xiaojuan is his wife; if he doesn't help his wife, would he go help outsiders instead? That's impossible.

Others are husband leads, wife follows, but Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan are the reverse: wife leads, husband follows.

"Tomorrow you just need to do as I say……"

In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.

Du Xiaojuan and Wang Dashan arrived at Tian'e Grand Hotel punctually at nine o'clock in the morning.

Hu Wanjia, however, had arrived half an hour early.

Compared to previously arriving an hour and a half late, this time Hu Wanjia could be said to have shown full sincerity.

After Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan came before Hu Wanjia and exchanged polite greetings, Du Xiaojuan got straight to the point:

"Manager Hu, let's discuss the equity distribution of the new company now. What do you think?"

"Sure, sure, absolutely no problem!" Hu Wanjia replied with a laugh.

Du Xiaojuan said: "My husband and I discussed it. For this new company we register this time, let's call it Wanjia Commodity Co., Ltd. What do you think of this name?"

"Naming the company after my name?" Hu Wanjia was stunned, showing a hint of surprise.

Du Xiaojuan voluntarily proposed naming the company after him; he absolutely hadn't expected it. After all, this company was opened by both parties together, which for Du Xiaojuan and Wang Dashan was actually a loss.

"Actually not entirely naming it after Manager Hu's name; mainly the two characters 'Wanjia' are very suitable for our supply chain company's image. Doing supply chain, everyone surely hopes their goods can be supplied to thousands of households."

Wang Dashan said with a smile.

"I see. The name Wanjia indeed suits our line of work." Hu Wanjia smiled; the sincerity the Wang-Du couple had shown now had already greatly satisfied his vanity.

However, the heavyweight sincerity Du Xiaojuan and Wang Dashan gave Hu Wanjia was still to come.

"Our Wanjia Commodity has registered capital of 1 million yuan fully paid in. As for equity, Manager Hu, you hold the majority share, my husband and I each hold a small portion. The shareholding ratio matches the capital contribution, and major decision-making authority rests in Manager Hu's hands. Manager Hu, do you have any objections to this equity distribution?"

Du Xiaojuan said thus.

Hu Wanjia immediately beamed with joy, feeling Du Xiaojuan's proposal was truly very sincere.

"May I ask how the shareholding ratio is specifically distributed?"

Hu Wanjia asked with a smile.

Wang Dashan said: "I hold twenty-five percent, my wife holds twenty-six percent, Manager Hu, you hold forty-nine percent. Manager Hu, what do you think?"

Hu Wanjia, upon hearing this, was stunned, and the smile on his face mostly disappeared.

He was not stupid.

This equity structure seemed like he held the majority, but actually not.

The reality was that the Wang-Du couple held fifty-one percent, he held forty-nine percent. Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan are husband and wife; they are one entity.

He, Hu Wanjia, did not get more than half the shares. In the future, on major decisions, he might be kicked out because he lacked that 1% of shares.

"Manager Wang, your proposal, how should I put it, feels a bit……" Hu Wanjia hesitated, not daring to put his words too bluntly, so he appeared tactful.

"Or Manager Hu, you hold a bit more shares. You hold fifty-one percent, I hold twenty-four percent, my wife holds twenty-five percent."

Wang Dashan was very straightforward and directly made a concession, truly full of sincerity.

However, just as his voice fell, Du Xiaojuan spoke up in opposition:

"No, Manager Hu can hold at most forty-nine percent of the shares."

Wang Dashan looked puzzled:

"Why is this? Fifty-one percent and forty-nine percent differ by only two percentage points. Let's not be too stingy."

Du Xiaojuan said:

"Because I'm afraid that after Wanjia Commodity grows big, Manager Hu will kick us out. Manager Hu, I'm putting this a bit bluntly; I hope you don't mind."

Hu Wanjia laughed hehe, somewhat embarrassed:

"How could I possibly kick you out? You've shown me so much sincerity; I can't thank you enough. I wouldn't do something like stabbing you in the back."

Wang Dashan said:

"I think Manager Hu is quite sincere. Last time on the Jinghu Garden project, we cooperated very happily. I trust Manager Hu's character. Giving him fifty-one percent shares is nothing inappropriate. Don't be so petty."

Du Xiaojuan said:

"Maybe I'm just lacking a sense of security. Anyway, I firmly believe that General Manager Hu taking the majority share is fine, but it absolutely cannot exceed forty-nine percent."

Du Xiaojuan's attitude was very firm, and she said to Hu Wanjia:

"General Manager Hu, since you feel our cooperation sincerity is sufficient, let me, this woman, have one percentage point—that shouldn't be a problem, right? If you don't even have sincerity, then I think there's no need to continue cooperating."

Wang Dashan put on a stern face and said to Du Xiaojuan: "Why be so petty? Speak properly; in business, you can't just follow your temper!"

Du Xiaojuan said instead:

"Anyway, I don't care; I simply cannot retreat any further. This is for my own consideration, and also for our future!"

"You woman, why won't you listen!"

Wang Dashan gave a dry laugh and hurriedly apologized to Hu Wanjia:

"General Manager Hu, my wife is just like this, a bit too nitpicky, really sorry. We grown men shouldn't quibble so much with a little woman, okay?"

Seeing Wang Dashan and Du Xiaojuan about to start arguing, Hu Wanjia knew that if things continued, this cooperation might fall through because of their huge marital differences, which was absolutely not a good thing for him.

So in the end he compromised:

"Fine, fine, I'll take forty-nine percent, forty-nine percent it is! Let's finalize this matter right now!"

Hu Wanjia had actually noticed that Du Xiaojuan and Wang Dashan might be acting in front of him, but he knew he didn't have many negotiation chips; after all, this cooperation was also something he needed, so he turned a blind eye and chose to compromise.
