These older folks have grown attached to Jiang's company over the years, which is why they kept their shares.
It's just... to put it nicely, it's a merger, but in reality, it's an acquisition...
There will never be another Jiang family...
It doesn't sound very good to hear that a long-established company was swallowed up by a company that was only a little over a year old.
“If you insist on being nostalgic and firmly disagree, we won’t force you.” Jiang Huaijing raised an eyebrow. “After all, with its current development, Xiaozhu Video will still be firmly in the industry leader position in less than two years. You all had better recognize the current situation. Now it is the Jiang family that needs Xiaozhu Video, not the other way around. That’s all I have to say. Think it over carefully.”
Hearing this, more and more people began to waver.
Yes, aren't all these people just after the annual dividends?
Given the current situation of the Jiang family, if they continue to stubbornly hold on, they will likely end up going bankrupt. What use will their shares be then?
"I think he makes a good point... Aren't we just after the money? Are we really going to hold onto these shares and be buried in the same pit as the Jiang family?"
"Yes, yes... It's good that they merged; it can be considered a saving of the Jiang family."
"Yes... if we don't merge, the Jiang family probably won't last long... it's better to merge sooner rather than later."
"Yes, it's just a name change now. The name Jiang means nothing to us. Who cares what it's changed to? As long as we get the money, that's all that matters."
“That makes sense. In the end, we don’t have any feelings for the Jiang family. Let them change the name if they want. I don’t want my shares to eventually become unsellable.”
Jiang Ran raised the corners of her lips: "Since that's the case, then everyone, please express your opinion."
"I agree."
I agree.
I agree.
"......"
Jiang Huaijing nodded slightly: "Since everyone agrees, then from today onwards, there will be no more Jiang family."
"I disagree!" Jiang Minghui suddenly stood up and slammed his fist on the conference table.
Jiang Ran glanced at him with annoyance and said, "There's one more thing. In view of Jiang Minghui's past behavior at Jiang's, I would like to ask the board of directors to unanimously agree to remove him from all his positions in the company. Do you all agree?"
"Why should I?!" Jiang Minghui exclaimed again, dissatisfied. "I am the chairman of the Jiang Group!"
"A chairman who only holds 15% of the shares?" Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow provocatively: "Sorry, starting today, the Jiang family is a thing of the past. This is the Shen family now."
"I also own 15% of the shares! On what grounds are you removing me from all my positions?"
Jiang Ran couldn't help but sneer inwardly. If he couldn't repay the money to the Shen family next year, he wouldn't even be able to keep this 15%!
Thinking this to herself, Jiang Ran still wore a polite smile as she looked at the others: "Under Jiang Minghui's leadership, the Jiang family has declined to this extent in just over a year. Do you all feel comfortable letting such a leader continue to lead you down this path? His presence will only make outsiders question our professionalism and damage our reputation."
Everyone nodded, agreeing that it made a lot of sense.
Jiang Minghui's reputation is now so bad that it's impossible to ruin it all. We can't let him spoil the whole pot of soup.
"I agree that, for the sake of the company's future development, Jiang Minghui should be removed from all his positions in the company."
"I agree, it's all for the company's long-term development."
"I agree as long as it's for the good of the company."
"If everyone agrees, then I agree too."
I agree.
Jiang Ran leaned back in her chair with satisfaction: "Since it passed unanimously, then it's settled."
"I disagree!" Jiang Minghui was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he stared at Jiang Ran with his eyes as if he wanted to kill her with his gaze.
Jiang Ran was too lazy to waste words with him and simply ignored him.
Clearly, Jiang Huaijing thought the same way as her, and completely ignored Jiang Minghui, saying to the others, "Let's end the meeting here today."
Jiang Minghui was so enraged by being ignored that he wanted to take everyone down with him!
Jiang Huaijing walked up to Jiang Minghui's secretary, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Do you want to stay at the company or follow him?"
The secretary was slightly taken aback, but immediately expressed her loyalty: "Thank you, Chairman! I will definitely work harder for the company in the future."
"Go and tell the other employees that those who want to stay can continue to work for the company."
"Yes, Chairman!"
Jiang Minghui almost couldn't catch his breath when he saw his secretary, who had been with him for so long, betray him so quickly.
Those damned traitors! Traitors!
The other employees were very happy to hear this news. After all, the job market was not good at the moment, and they had been worried about what jobs they would have to find if Jiang's Group collapsed. Now, the company has a new chairman who allows them to stay with the company. There couldn't be a better thing.
When Jiang Huaijing and Jiang Ran came out, all the employees tactfully changed how they addressed them.
"Good morning, Chairman!"
Jiang Minghui, who had been following behind them and cursing, was so angry at the sight that he almost vomited blood.
His Jiang family...
All his hard work over the years... has now become someone else's...
He was unwilling to accept it!
He was unwilling to accept it!
Soon, news of Xiaozhu Video's acquisition of Jiang's company spread far and wide.
[Good, good, I've disliked the Jiang family for a long time, and now they're gone.]
[Great, there won't be any more HeartStar videos now. I've been annoyed by this video for a long time. Even the title is named after a mistress's illegitimate child, which is just unlucky.]
[Great news! From now on, we can watch even more TV dramas just by subscribing to a Xiaozhu Video membership.]
[Does this mean the Jiang family will cease to exist? Very well, this is all the Jiang family deserves.]
[Good news! The Jiang family should have gone bankrupt long ago!]
Everyone thought this was a good thing, except for Jiang Minghui.
He felt a tightness in his chest ever since he left the company. He had devoted so many years of his life to the Jiang family, and now he had ended up like this.
He was so unwilling to accept it!
All of this is thanks to them!
Only today did he realize that the little pig video that had been opposing him was actually those two little devils.
It seems they've been plotting against him for a long time, and he only found out now.
He was wise all his life but made a foolish mistake at one moment.
However, they shouldn't be too happy yet, thinking they'll definitely have a chance to make a comeback!
However, even worse news soon followed.
It was late at night, and most people were fast asleep when a video quickly went viral. The person in the video was covered in wounds, and his face was so swollen that it was impossible to recognize his original appearance. He just looked vaguely familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
