Chapter 789: Giving Up Resistance

Mentioning the great name of Ye Changying still makes many middle-aged people in big Yan Jing families sigh with regret to this day.

Because for these big families, no amount of wealth is as important as a powerful descendant who can hold his own.

The business world is like a battlefield. Sometimes a slight deviation can lead to the total annihilation of the entire army and an irreversible situation. This is also why many families fluctuate in the game, and many have even directly exited the stage of history.

For a family to prosper for a long time, it doesn't matter how much money is in hand, nor how much land is in hand. What matters is whether its descendants can continuously produce dragons and phoenixes among people.

The current prosperity of the Ye family is inextricably linked to the solid foundation laid by Ye Changying twenty years ago.

Therefore, people remember Ye Changying and regard him as the bright moon in their hearts.

Ye Chen didn't expect that Gu Yanzheng and Gu Yangang would kneel on one knee upon hearing his father's name. Seeing the respect in their expressions was not fake, the anger in his heart toward these two also eased a little.

At this time, Gu Yanzheng turned his head, looked at his son Gu Weiliang and the son of the third family, Gu Weiguang, and shouted, "You two, seeing Brother Changying's bloodline, why don't you kneel down and admit your mistake quickly!"

Gu Weiliang already understood in his heart.

Although he hadn't heard too many rumors about Ye Changying, he guessed that Ye Chen was a descendant of the Yan Jing Ye family.

Don't look at the fact that the Gu family and the Ye family both belong to one of the three big families in Yan Jing, but the gap in strength is not just a little bit.

Some people jokingly said that the so-called three big families in Yan Jing are actually just "two dragons playing with a pearl".

The two dragons refer to the Ye family and the Su family. As for the Gu family, it is just that pearl.

The strength of the Ye family is much stronger than that of the Gu family.

Even if Gu Yanzhong, Gu Yanzheng, and Gu Yangang, the three brothers, were tied together, they wouldn't be enough to look at in front of the Ye family.

What's more, the eldest brother of the Gu family, Gu Yanzhong, is standing with Ye Chen at this time.

It is equivalent to saying that the Gu Yanzheng and Gu Yangang brothers are facing not only the Ye family, but also most of the Gu family!

After all, the current eldest brother, Gu Yanzhong, looks like he has recovered. If they really want to compete, the second and third brothers combined can't even beat the eldest brother, so what's the point of talking about the Ye family?

Therefore, Gu Weiliang didn't dare to delay. He walked a few steps behind his father Gu Yanzheng, knelt on one knee, and said piously, "Mr. Ye, please forgive me for my lack of eyes, I didn't recognize Taishan!"

Gu Weiguang's brain was not as good as Gu Weiliang's, but seeing this, he didn't dare to ask more. He stepped forward and knelt on the ground, imitating his cousin, and said respectfully, "Mr. Ye, please forgive me for my lack of eyes, I didn't recognize Taishan!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said coldly, "For the sake of your respect for my father, I will not pursue the matter of you insulting me just now for the time being."

As soon as these words came out, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

But Ye Chen immediately added, "However, you two brothers, colluding with each other, trying to seize the assets under my Uncle Gu's name, and releasing news to the outside world that Uncle Gu is seriously ill, and uniting with many directors to usurp power at the board meeting, you must give Uncle Gu a clear solution to this matter. Otherwise, I will not spare you!"

Gu Yanzheng already understood in his heart that this power-usurping plan had completely failed.

Not only could he not fight his eldest brother now, but he was also alienated from the board of directors. Relying on himself and his third brother to continue to fight against his eldest brother was simply wishful thinking. The best solution was to admit defeat immediately and strive to return to the previous state.

Therefore, he immediately looked at Gu Yanzhong and said piously, "Eldest Brother, this matter was my greed. I admit my mistake and accept the punishment. From today on, I will completely dispel all improper attempts and wholeheartedly assist Eldest Brother in managing the Gu Group well!"

The third brother, Gu Yangang, also hurriedly admitted his mistake, "Eldest Brother, I apologize to you just like Second Brother! From now on, if you have any instructions, I, Third Brother, will definitely serve you and dare not disobey!"

Gu Yanzhong's expression flashed a hint of disappointment and hesitation.

Actually, he didn't expect that the second and third brothers would give up resistance so quickly.

He originally thought they would put up a desperate fight, but he didn't expect that Ye Chen and the identity of his father, Ye Changying, would completely scare them out of their wits.

Therefore, having achieved a complete victory all of a sudden, and with both younger brothers admitting their mistakes, he hadn't thought about how to deal with them.

At this time, Ye Chen said, "Since you want to admit your mistakes, at least you should show something. Although I am an outsider, I will also put forward a small suggestion here. Everyone, listen and see if it is feasible."

Gu Yanzhong hurriedly said, "Chen'er, you speak!"

Ye Chen smiled, "Uncle Gu, these four people are also your blood relatives of the same clan and origin. In my opinion, it is a great kindness to be able to correct mistakes."

Gu Yanzheng and Gu Yangang were overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly nodded in agreement, "Yes, Eldest Brother, we are all brothers. For the sake of blood kinship and our sincere repentance, please spare us this time!"

Ye Chen added at this time, "Don't be in a hurry. I can spare you, but there are conditions for sparing you."

Gu Yanzheng naturally knew that it was impossible for Ye Chen to be so kind and take the initiative to intercede for them. There must be other conditions as an exchange, so he immediately clasped his fists and said, "Young Master Ye, please speak!"

Ye Chen said indifferently, "You two are both shareholders of the Gu Group and both have shares in the Gu Group. Since you want to follow Uncle Gu wholeheartedly, you naturally have to be firmly bound to him. So my suggestion is that you two immediately permanently transfer the voting rights corresponding to all the shares in your hands to Uncle Gu!"

What Ye Chen wanted was the voting rights corresponding to their shares, not their shares.

That is to say, they should hold as many shares as they should, and earn as much money as they should, but after the voting rights of the shares are handed over, they will have no say in this board of directors, and everything must obey the decision of the controlling party.

In this way, the voting rights in Gu Yanzhong's hands reached the 51% absolute control requirement!

In the future, he can say one thing and do one thing in the Gu Group!

Even if the remaining shareholders unite, they will have at most 49% of the voting rights, so it is impossible to shake Gu Yanzhong's control.

Gu Yanzhong felt clear in his heart when he heard this.

He didn't expect that Ye Chen not only saved his life but also wanted to help him regain control of the Gu Group.

This kid's style of doing things is clean, neat, and decisive. He really has the shadow of his father back then!

Thinking of this, Gu Yanzhong felt gratitude and also a sigh, a sigh for his old eldest brother!

Ye Chen had been wandering in Jin Ling for many years, had not received a good education, and had not experienced good conditions. He had struggled to climb up from the grassroots mud pit, but he didn't expect that he already had the demeanor of a great general.

If his eldest brother were still alive all these years, and if Ye Chen could be carefully cultivated under his father Ye Changying, then the current Ye Chen would probably have become a shining existence in the world!

It's a pity that this beautiful vision can only be exchanged for a sigh.

However, the more he looked at Ye Chen, the more he felt that he was extremely pleasing to the eye.

If he can become his son-in-law as promised in the future, he will definitely be able to give his daughter a lifetime of happiness, and he and his wife can be completely at ease! ===== CHAPTER 790 =====
