Upon hearing this, both Zhou Hong and Zheng Ming's expressions changed.
However, one shareholder who is close to them said.
"President Mu, even if they were brought into the company by President Li and his team, they have been working diligently and conscientiously. Why bother with their backgrounds?"
Although Manager Zhou and Director Zheng were hired because of their connection with the Li family, they helped the company reach a cooperation agreement with the Far East Group.
This is much more beneficial to the company than having a clueless young girl like Mu Weiwei.
“Indeed, heroes can be distinguished by their origins.” Gu Weiwei reached out to Xiao Yang standing behind her and took a document, saying, “But, before I step down from this position, do I still have the right to ask how much company funds they misappropriated from the two projects they were in charge of last year?”
These words left the shareholders looking at each other in bewilderment.
Zhou Hong and Zheng Ming exchanged a glance, vehemently denying it.
"President Mu, I know that the proposals put forward at today's shareholders' meeting will displease you, but this is for the future of the company. You don't need to make such false accusations against us."
“I’m not targeting anyone in particular, I’ve just been keeping an eye on the company’s performance over the past few years.” Gu Weiwei asked Xiao Yang to distribute the documents and reports to the shareholders present, and said, “These are the company’s annual financial statements for the past few years. Profits have been declining year by year, and several investment projects have not been profitable.”
The shareholders, flipping through various documents and reports, were all quite agitated.
Gu Weiwei coldly glanced at everyone present, "As for the two projects that Manager Zhou and Director Zheng led, they used shell companies to embezzle funds. I had someone investigate, and last year's projects haven't even started yet. Where did that money go?"
“It’s normal that the project has encountered problems and cannot proceed for the time being,” Zhou Hong explained.
"With such a large project in the Far East, do you really think Longsheng would suffer a loss?"
Zheng Ming was reminding everyone that if they pursued the matter at this point, Longsheng would lose the opportunity to cooperate with the Far East.
The shareholders were somewhat confused, wanting to investigate where the funds for the two projects went, but also not wanting to lose this cooperation with Far East.
Seeing everyone's hesitation, Zheng Ming seized the opportunity to speak.
"We will explain the two projects from last year to our shareholders later. Right now, the most urgent task is to decide on the company's cooperation in the Far East. Once we lose this opportunity, we will never have another one."
The shareholders discussed the matter animatedly, and hesitated for a moment.
"This project requires at least 300 million yuan in investment. Does Longsheng have that kind of money to invest right now?" Gu Weiwei asked about the funding issue again.
Seeing that he was still pressing the issue, Zheng Ming asked in return.
"The funding problem can be solved. Does Mr. Mu have a better cooperation project?"
Gu Weiwei checked the text messages on her phone and said to Xiao Yang.
"Go out and answer it."
Xiao Yang nodded, got up and left the meeting room to greet Xu Qian who was coming.
Gu Weiwei leaned back in her chair and sent a WeChat message to Fu Hanzheng.
[all the best. ]
Fu Hanzheng listened to her meeting while working through a remote monitoring device.
She astutely seized upon the issues of funding and the misappropriation of public funds in Zhou Hong and Zheng Ming's two projects, causing the shareholders to waver.
If Xu Qian were to go and discuss the acquisition at this point, he wouldn't need to give her any further guidance, and the matter would be resolved satisfactorily.
