In order to recover the funds as soon as possible, Meng Linping decided to develop this project as soon as possible. After all, the longer it was delayed, the more likely something would go wrong.

The next step is to find someone to handle the procedures, draw up drawings and start construction, and at the same time start pre-sales as soon as possible. Otherwise, the company's working capital alone will not be able to support such a large cash flow.

Because it is the city's next key development area, some people have inside information, so the pre-sale is not bad.

Because of this, Meng Linping was under tremendous pressure and had to work hard with Meng Jiangzhou every day, so Xia Feng was often not seen at home.

Of course, maybe it’s also because Xia Feng himself is busy.

Just when everything was on track, in September, it was suddenly revealed that Meng's Real Estate had a serious delay in the construction of the Qinghua community, which resulted in everyone being unable to deliver the houses on the stipulated date. It was also rumored that Meng's Real Estate was about to go bankrupt, otherwise there would be few workers working in the community.

The owners in the community united in protest, refusing food and drink and living at the doorstep, just to demand an explanation from Meng Real Estate.

This incident quickly sparked heated discussion and even became a hot topic, with several TV stations reporting on it.

Immediately afterwards, a piece of important news shocked Meng's Real Estate.

The previous leadership of H City was replaced and the new leadership was directly transferred. The new leadership re-formulated the development policy and determined that the eastern part of H City would be the focus of the next development.

Upon hearing the news, Meng Linping, who had just sat up, collapsed straight into his chair. Secretary Song, who was standing next to him, was so frightened by his appearance that he hurried over to check on the situation.

Then Meng Linping struggled again and dialed several numbers, but no one answered. When the last call was finally connected, Meng Linping's face changed and he threw the phone on the table.

He lay back and stared blankly at the ceiling.

At this time, Meng Jiangzhou rushed in hurriedly.

"Dad, what should we do? What should we do? The shareholders outside will burst in and demand an explanation.

Also, I received a notification that Luo Qianze and Minister Zhang were chatting and laughing, and I heard they were already discussing the next step in developing the western land parcels."

After hearing what Meng Jiangzhou said, Meng Linping's heart was filled with bitterness. He was middle-aged and had been immersed in the business world for thirty years, but in the end he was tricked by a young man in his twenties.

It was also his fault that the information was delayed, which led to the company falling into crisis. Luo Qianze was really good at scheming.

Looking at the panicking Meng Jiangzhou, he could only force himself to get up. His figure was a little dazed, and he was supported by Secretary Song beside him.

He waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, he had not lost yet, and as long as Meng's Real Estate was still in his hands, he still had a chance to turn things around.

He wants to provide a good life for his child, and he cannot let the person who hurt his daughter be happy.

He forced himself to look serious again. He had to deal with the people at the shareholders' meeting first.

Secretary Song was a little worried when he saw Mr. Meng's condition, but Meng Linping felt relieved. With his father around, he had not lost yet.

As soon as Meng Linping opened the door, he saw a group of people in the corridor outside. The leader was Qiang Junda, and everyone had anger on their faces.

Qiang Junda was very rude from the start.

"Mr. Meng, because you and your son made the wrong decisions, Meng's Real Estate suffered heavy losses. What explanation do you have for the shareholders?"

The company has invested 4 billion yuan in this project, and the foundation of the house has been built.

If this project is stopped, not only the 4 billion yuan, but also the outstanding debts and so on will be wasted.

But if you continue to do this, it will be a losing business. Maybe in the end the house will be built but no one will buy it, and you will lose even more.

Now I am in a dilemma.

Since it was the father and son who did something wrong, they should apologize.

"Everyone, it was indeed my decision-making error this time that caused the company to suffer such a huge loss. I apologize to everyone. I am sorry.

But I promise that Meng's Real Estate will return to its peak and bring more benefits to you all."

Meng Linping took all the responsibility on himself.

Qiang Junda couldn't help but sneer, "Boss Meng, you're not a child. Such a huge loss can't be solved by just an apology.

Not to mention your promise, you can seriously damage the company today, and it can go bankrupt if you are not careful. Who knows what the company will be like under your leadership in the future."

As soon as Qiang Junda said this, the people behind him echoed him.

"Yes, since Mr. Meng doesn't have this ability, it would be better to replace him with someone who has the ability to lead the company."

"I think it would be better for Mr. Meng to step down as soon as possible and let Mr. Qiang become the chairman. At your age, you should enjoy your retirement."

…

How could Meng Linping not see that Qiang Junda's aggressive approach was just to force him to give up his position, but he would not and could not give up this position, otherwise Meng Real Estate would no longer be named Meng, and how could he be worthy of his father's teachings.

Meng Jiangzhou looked at these aggressive people in front of him. They used to be as docile as lambs in front of his father, but now they spoke to his father like steel knives.

The anger in his chest kept boiling.

"I know all about your evil ambitions, but Meng's real estate is named Meng. As long as my Meng family still exists, it is not your turn to dictate our actions."

Qiang Junda looked at the furious Meng Jiangzhou with even more sarcasm on his face.

"Mr. Meng, please stop bragging. You are primarily responsible for today's situation. If you weren't impulsive, why would Meng's Real Estate pay such a high price for this piece of land? Maybe the Luo family would have taken it away.

It is the Luo family, not the Meng family, that is being ridiculed now."

Qiang Junda directly issued an ultimatum, "According to the regulations of the shareholders' meeting, President Meng has now caused such great losses to the company. The shareholders' meeting has the right to vote on whether you will continue to serve as chairman."

Meng Linping knew that it was useless to say more now, so he looked at Qiang Junda calmly.

"Okay, then we'll hold a shareholders' meeting in three days."

Qiang Junda achieved his goal. He looked at Meng Linping who was pretending to be calm in front of him, sneered a few times, and turned away.

Lu Deyun arrived late, but he had heard almost everything from behind and looked at Meng Linping with some concern.

"I'm fine, but it's true that I was tricked. You can't refuse to admit your age, and you have to bear a lot of losses."

Lu Deyun took his hand and said, "Brother, it's already this late, don't say those awkward words.

No matter what, you must take good care of yourself."

Qiang Junda is coming with such force this time, he must have been prepared, I’m afraid the situation is not good.

Meng Linping still had some confidence at this time.

"Qiang Junda can't cause any trouble."

As long as he has relative control over the shares of Meng's Real Estate, it will be useless to hold any number of shareholders' meetings.

He holds 31% of the shares, his two children hold 5% each, and Old Lu holds 10%, which together account for more than half. No matter how much Qiang Junda jumps around, it will be useless.

Lu Deyun sighed as he looked at Meng Jiangzhou who was in a daze beside him. Brother Meng had to clean up the mess for his son in this matter, but he didn't know how this matter would turn out.
