Chapter 204 President, Jiang Shiyuan!

Strength? You have absolutely no strength whatsoever!

A decade or two ago, you could have used your mother's status to your advantage and swagger around here.

But now, Jiang Buyu is long dead. You're just an orphan, unloved by your father and husband, with no one to rely on. So what if two men covet your looks and want to back you up?

This eternal technology is still under my control!

Thinking of this, Jiang Yongxiao felt somewhat relaxed, and his crossed legs trembled under the table.

Standing next to Jiang Shiyuan, Ye Yu was meeting her legendary uncle for the first time today. He had a very bad impression of the old man at first sight, feeling that he was scheming and calculating.

Moreover, the way he looked at A-Yuan clearly showed hostility.

Working under this old man, Ah-Yuan's future can be described as walking on thin ice.

“Miss, since Chairman Jiang has promised you that he will definitely arrange a job for you, you can just wait patiently. Why did you suddenly come here today and disturb the board meeting?” Secretary Zhang knew that it was inconvenient for Chairman Jiang to criticize his niece, so he fulfilled his role as a lackey and spoke up for him.

Jiang Shiyuan stared directly at Jiang Yongxiao, not even glancing at a nobody like Secretary Zhang. Her clear, beautiful eyes flashed with a sharp, cold light.

"Really? He promised me the position of president of Eternal Technology? How come I didn't know?"

"President?!" Everyone was shocked!

Although Eternal is not a large corporation, the sudden arrival of a president, especially such a young girl, is a huge event!

Letting such a young girl manage the company? Even a family business can't be run like this!

Jiang Yongxiao's face instantly stiffened. He suppressed his anger and adopted the attitude of an elder:

"Ah Yuan, although you are my sister's only daughter, I understand your ambition to make a name for yourself as you enter the workforce. But being a CEO is not child's play; it's not as simple as staying home and taking care of the kids!"

You're asking for such a high position right off the bat. If I may be so bold, you're not up to the task. As the chairman of the board, I can't gamble with the company's future.

Besides, even if I agreed, the other board members wouldn't!

He was actually subtly conveying a message.

No matter what, he couldn't let Jiang Shiyuan enter Eternity; that would only make him miserable!

"Chairman Jiang is right, Miss Jiang. You are still too young. How can you shoulder such an important responsibility? You should go to the grassroots level and gain experience for a few years before you think about it!"

The crowd burst into mocking laughter.

It's clear they don't take Jiang Shiyuan seriously.

Jiang Shiyuan remained calm and composed, her expression unchanged. After all, she had already guessed what was happening before her eyes:

"For the past ten years, Chairman Jiang, you have served as both Chairman and President. It is not a good thing that power is too concentrated. After all, a person's energy is limited. Under your management, Yongheng has encountered a series of business problems in the past two years. First, it had difficulty in financing, then the capital chain broke, and now even you yourself are under investigation by the police, which has brought Yongheng into legal trouble."

If we don't attract investment and change the status quo, then the only thing waiting for us is certain death.

Her clear gaze swept over the faces, each harboring their own ulterior motives, and she gave a cold laugh. "By then, none of you here will get any dividends, and you probably won't even be able to get your initial investment back. You'll be left with nothing but the northwest wind and the southeast wind."

The board members' smiles vanished instantly.

That little girl hit the nail on the head!

Jiang Yongxiao was furious, but what she said was true.

Just as he was thinking about how to refute her, Ye Yu took a document out of his briefcase, his gaze deep and serious, and placed it solemnly on the table:

"Chairman Jiang, you own 45% of the shares and serve as the company's president. Our young lady owns 30% of the shares, making her the second-largest shareholder of Yongheng Technology. She is also the only daughter of the founder, Ms. Jiang. Do you think it's excessive for her to ask for the position of company president?"

The crowd gasped in surprise!

The girl in front of them was giving them one shock after another.

But everything went black before Jiang Yongxiao's eyes!

Secretary Zhang immediately ran over, picked up the shareholding agreement, returned to Jiang Yongxiao's side, and spread it out in front of him.

It's written in black and white; it's not an illusion!

Jiang Yongxiao's vision went black again.

Ye Yu's lips curled slightly as he slowly opened his mouth, "As Miss Jiang's lawyer, I can tell you all clearly that this shareholding agreement is legally binding. If Chairman Jiang doesn't believe me, she can ask someone from the company's legal department to come and verify it on the spot."

If they dare to say that, how could it be false?!

Jiang Yongxiao stared intently at Jiang Shiyuan, his sharp gaze seeming to want to pierce two holes in her.

Back then, he altered the will, taking away 45% of what originally belonged to Jiang Shiyuan from his sister, and only then did he take the position of chairman.

The other shareholders combined hold 25%, while he knows the remaining 30% is in the hands of a close friend of Jiang Buyu from university. That friend has been living in the US and has been largely out of touch with him for years. He has considered buying back the shares more than once over the years, but unable to find the right person, he has had to take a longer-term approach.

However, he never expected that the 30% would end up in Jiang Shiyuan's hands after going through many twists and turns!

This 30% has truly become the only variable!

They are capable of challenging him, the chairman, openly!

After a brief standoff, Jiang Yongxiao exhaled a resentful breath, still struggling:

"Even if you own 30%, you still can't disregard the company's bylaws. The promotion of the CEO must be decided by a show of hands from all directors; otherwise, it's all for nothing!"

"Okay, then let's do as you say, Chairman Jiang. Let's vote by raising our hands."

Jiang Shiyuan smiled calmly and said, "If everyone disagrees, I won't force you. Everything will be done according to company rules."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yu turned his gaze to her calm face, his brows furrowing with worry.

With the shares in hand, the most effective way is to forcefully seize them and coerce Jiang Yongxiao.

However, if the vote is conducted by show of hands according to the rules, this would undoubtedly return the initiative to Jiang Yongxiao. A-Yuan's situation would then become passive again.

She was too kind and too conformist!

Jiang Yongxiao chuckled inwardly, remaining composed, and raised his voice:

"Alright, in that case, let's vote by raising our hands. If you agree that Ms. Jiang should serve as the company's president, please raise your hand!"

After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.

No one raised their hand.

Jiang Yongxiao's tense nerves relaxed, and he leaned back comfortably in the leather chair, squinting his eyes and looking at Jiang Shiyuan with a gaze that was both contemptuous and provocative.

It's like saying: "You brat, you dare mess with me? You think you're worthy?!"

He's been deeply rooted in Yongheng for many years; his subordinates are all here, brothers who live a life of luxury with him. She thinks he can just become president like that? Does she think he's been wasting the last ten years of his life?

Ye Yu gritted his teeth and looked nervously at Jiang Shiyuan, but she did not seem to have lost her composure.

Just then, one of the directors slowly raised his hand.

Jiang Yongxiao's pupils shrank sharply, and he almost stood up from his chair!

A few seconds later, two more directors hesitantly raised their hands.

With the chairman included, there are six people in total, which is half the number in the blink of an eye!

"You—?!" Jiang Yongxiao could no longer contain himself and suddenly stood up, looking at the board member with his hand raised in disbelief.

Ye Yu hurriedly looked at Jiang Shiyuan, a look of surprise flashing across his eyes!

No wonder she wasn't flustered at all; could it be that she had already...

"Chairman Jiang, according to the company's board of directors' articles of association, a majority vote is required for approval."

A cold, sharp smile curved Jiang Shiyuan's lips, exuding an aura of authority that was both natural and oppressive. "From this moment on, I, Jiang Shiyuan, am the president of Eternal Technology. Do you still object this time?"
