Chapter 1096

Song Tianming and Song Rongyu, the father and son, were very unhappy with Ma Xiaoyao's words!

The real purpose of the father and son was to permanently remove Song Wanting from the board of directors of the Song Group.

Regardless of whether Song Wanting is dead or alive now, the board of directors of the Song Group should no longer have anything to do with her.

However, how could they have imagined that Song Wanting had been missing for so many days, and there were still people on the board of directors who were thinking of her and thinking for her.

Moreover, Ma Xiaoyao's words quickly resonated with others.

Everyone spoke one after another, expressing their agreement with Ma Xiaoyao's point of view, making Song Tianming and Song Rongyu dare not speak a word of disagreement despite their anger.

After all, the other members of the board of directors didn't know at all about their plot to harm Song Wanting.

The attitude they are showing now is also one of regret, having to re-elect a new chairman for the sake of the Song Group.

Therefore, even if Ma Xiaoyao said this, they wouldn't dare to say a word of disagreement even if they had 10,000 disagreements in their hearts.

Because as long as they say a word of disagreement, it will immediately make people suspicious of their motives.

And once someone is suspicious of their motives, the other party will definitely suspect that Song Wanting's accident in Japan has an inseparable connection with them.

Therefore, Song Tianming could only grit his teeth and said: "I think Mr. Ma's words are very correct. Since we have now decided to elect a new chairman to preside over the overall situation, we must also make another contingency plan for Song Wanting, the former chairman."

After saying that, he said: "Now, I propose that no matter who is elected as the new chairman next, they must follow a principle, that is: once Ms. Song Wanting returns safely, this new chairman must unconditionally step down and return the position of chairman to Ms. Song Wanting. Does anyone have any objections?"

When everyone heard him say this, they naturally nodded in agreement.

This time, all seventeen people raised their hands to vote.

Song Tianming was even more annoyed in his heart, thinking to himself: "This is simply buying a time bomb for myself. Now Song Wanting's life or death is unknown. Who knows if she is dead or not? In case she is not dead and suddenly comes back alive one day, wouldn't everything I did be in vain?"

Thinking of this, Song Tianming sighed in his heart: "It seems that the best solution now is to sell assets immediately after taking office, just in case!"

So, he continued: "Now, let's proceed to the next item of voting, which is for everyone to elect one person from our 17 people to be this new chairman. Among our seventeen people, anyone has the right to vote and be voted for. Each person is limited to one vote. Whoever gets the most votes will be our new chairman!"

After saying that, he added: "Because it concerns the position of chairman and is very important to the Song Group, this time we will adopt a real-name voting system to avoid any backroom deals."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay.

In the board of directors, real-name voting is certainly fair, but real-name voting also brings a very big hidden danger, which is settling scores later.

If you voted for A, but B finally got the position, then B will definitely hold a grudge against you in the future, and even give you a hard time or find trouble for you everywhere.

If this person is really narrow-minded, he might still be trying his best to take revenge on you many years later for this matter.

Facing such a person, no one can handle it.

Song Rongyu very seriously echoed at this time: "I also support the real-name voting system. Only the real-name voting system can better conform to the three principles of openness, justice, and fairness."

After saying that, he immediately raised his hand and said: "Since it is a vote, I will set an example for everyone here. I nominate Mr. Song Tianming as the new chairman of the Song Group and cast my vote for him."

Song Tianming smiled slightly at this time: "Since anyone in this board of directors has the right to elect and be elected, then I will also cast my vote for myself! I believe I can lead the Song Group through the difficulties and create brilliance again."

Subsequently, someone immediately expressed their stance: "I also cast a vote for Mr. Song Tianming!"

"Count me in!"

Song Rongyu said indifferently: "In that case, Mr. Song Tianming has already received four votes. Let's hurry up and vote, everyone else here!"

Others whispered to each other for a while. Seeing that Song Tianming had already grasped the situation, and this was a real-name voting system with the risk of settling scores later, they all followed the trend and cast their votes for Song Tianming.

Soon, Song Tianming's votes reached nine. It was a foregone conclusion that he would be elected as the new chairman.

At this time, the remaining few people who hadn't voted already realized that the situation was set. Whether they voted for him or not could not change the result of him being elected as the new chairman.

However, if they didn't vote for him at this time, or abstained, they would still have to guard against him giving them a hard time in the future.

So, everyone followed the trend and cast their votes for Song Tianming.

In this way, Song Tianming received seventeen votes from seventeen people.

At this time, Song Rongyu said: "Since that's the case, Mr. Song Tianming is the new chairman of the Song Group. Let's applaud and congratulate him!"

After saying that, Song Rongyu took the lead in applauding.

Others also followed suit and applauded.

Song Tianming looked humble and waved his hand, saying seriously: "I have self-knowledge. Although my ability is not bad, compared to the former chairman, Ms. Song Wanting, it is still a bit worse. But everyone can rest assured that since I have been elected to this position by everyone, I will firmly implement the basic principle of 'perform duties in one's position,' serve the future development of the Song Group wholeheartedly, and will never do anything irresponsible or neglect my duties."

Others hurriedly applauded in agreement.

Song Tianming smiled slightly and said indifferently: "Since we have now selected the new chairman, let's move to the press release hall!"

"I have invited a batch of media in advance and also notified them that we will elect a new chairman today."

"In a while, we will hold a press conference to announce the latest decision of the board of directors to the public. In this way, we can also reassure our investors and shareholders. Does anyone have any objections?"

Everyone had already voted to elect Song Tianming as the new chairman, so naturally, they would have no objections to participating in the press conference.

So, everyone readily agreed.

Song Tianming said with emotion: "Oh! The fact that we can reach a consensus so quickly is a huge positive news for the Song Group. I believe that after the press conference, our stock price will definitely rise rapidly!"

After finishing, he deliberately put on a straight face and said: "However, everyone must pay attention, absolutely do not make any small moves in the stock market during the few dozen minutes before the press conference. Once anyone among you is suspected of insider trading and attracts the Securities Regulatory Commission to come to the door, then I will never spare him!"
