Volume 1 Chapter 668: Gu Xunjing's Rise
"We must finalize the wedding date today. We can't let them use Gu Xuanwu's death as an excuse to avoid it."
"Yes, that's right. Our daughter can't afford to waste three years."
After the Su family's parents finished speaking, they were about to rush into the Gu family's house again. Su Mengyu wanted to stop them, but Zhan Yanxun grabbed her arm and said, "What do they want to do? If they want to make trouble, let them go. Since no one is thinking about you, why should you think so carefully about others?"
Su Mengyu is worried about Gu Xunjing and his parents, but who really cares about her?
Zhan Yanxun looked at Su Mengyu and said, "Gu Xunjing will never agree to marry you. No matter how much your parents make trouble, they will give up after a long time. You don't have to rush forward to block those ugly words for them. You are the victim."
Zhan Yanxun's words made Su Mengyu feel sad.
It seems that no one feels wronged about her relationship with Brother Xun Jing, because everyone thinks that she likes Brother Xun Jing, so there is nothing wrong with having a relationship with him?
But no one knows how sad she is!
When I heard Zhan Yanxun say that she was the victim, I couldn't hold back my tears at that moment.
Zhan Yanxun said in a deep voice: "Let's go. Whatever trouble they make has nothing to do with you."
Zhan Yanxun took Su Mengyu and left directly.
When Su's parents saw this situation, why did they take their daughter away?
"Stop, stop."
Su Mengyu will never forget the moment when Zhan Yanxun pulled her forward.
…
Gu Group
Due to Gu Xuanwu's unexpected death, Gu Group was in chaos. The company's top management and directors were in a meeting.
"President Gu passed away unexpectedly. The most urgent task now is to elect a new president."
"Mr. Gu has passed away. This position should be inherited by his son, Gu Xunjing."
"Gu Xunjing has been under the protection of the president for these years, but he has been ignorant of the wind and rain and only indulged in fun. A person like him simply cannot bear the heavy responsibility! He is not suitable to be the president of Gu Corporation."
"I think so too. Especially since the Gu Group is no longer what it used to be. It is in a very difficult situation now. If Gu Xunjing were to become the president of the Gu Group, the Gu Group would simply declare bankruptcy."
"How can you do this? The Gu Group was founded by President Gu. Now that President Gu has passed away unexpectedly, the position of president should naturally be inherited by his son. Are you trying to rebel?"
At this time, Director Zhang Dongliang said: "Old Hu, you are just older, not from the Qing Dynasty. In this situation, if Gu Xunjing is allowed to take charge, what difference will it make from declaring bankruptcy? Gu Group is the life's work of President Gu, so we cannot let this prodigal son squander it all."
"Yes, what else can Gu Xunjing do besides racing cars and playing with women? A playboy like that, with his father's protection, can enjoy a lifetime of wealth and glory. Now that his father is gone, what's the point?"
Lao Hu is Gu Xuanyu's confidant and naturally supports Gu Xunjing's promotion, but he did not expect to be jointly attacked.
Looking at this Zhang Dongliang, it seems that he has colluded with everyone.
"Don't worry about Lao Hu. Now we will nominate someone who can be the president."
"I recommend Zhang Dongliang, Director Zhang. He has been with the president the longest, so he should be the president."
Zhang Dongliang stood up and said, "I didn't expect that President Gu would have such an accident, but now in order to save the Gu Group, I am willing to take the responsibility!"
At this time, Gu Xunjing pushed the door open and walked in. He said with a gloomy look in his eyes, "You guys don't even dare to call me to the board meeting? Is the 40% stake in my father's hands so insignificant?"
"Gu Xunjing, your father holds 40% of the shares, which is indeed the largest share. But if you want to be the president of Gu Group, then all of our shares here will be given to Zhang Dongliang, and he will have more than 40% of the shares, more than you!"
Gu Xunjing chuckled and said, "It seems that you have discussed this beforehand."
Zhang Dongliang said proudly: "Master Gu, don't blame us. We are very sad that Mr. Gu had an accident, but the Gu Group is the life's work of Mr. Gu. We can't watch it being destroyed in your hands."
Gu Xunjing said with a sinister look in his eyes: "So you just grab it directly?"
Zhang Dongliang was speechless for a moment. After all, when did this dandy boy have such a strong aura?
But even if that were the case, what would it matter? He had already privately united all the directors, and except for a few of the least supportive ones, all the rest supported him.
How can a young boy like him fight against him?
Zhang Dongliang said in a high-handed manner, "Mr. Gu, I have been with Mr. Gu for many years, so you should respectfully address me as uncle. It is rude of you to speak to me like this."
Gu Xunjing chuckled: "Director Zhang, you are just older, not from the Qing Dynasty, and I am here to discuss business with you! All the goods previously supplied to Xingyuan Group have been returned, with a total value of 1 billion. If I remember correctly, those goods were in the charge of your son Zhang Hao."
"My son is in charge of those goods. Why? You don't want to blame my son for the returned goods. The specifications and quality of the goods were also approved by the general manager. The original order of Xingyuan Group was given to Zhan Group. It was the general manager who snatched it from Zhan Group, but who could have known that our products did not meet their requirements, and they returned all of them. Goods worth 1 billion are lying in the warehouse.
If there is a need to hold someone accountable for this, I think the old customer also has a share of responsibility, and my son cannot be blamed entirely."
"My father was in a hurry to come back to the company that day to deal with something. I think he was dealing with this matter."
Zhang Dongliang's face suddenly turned ugly. He said, "Yes, the company was dealing with this matter that night, but the boss always got into a car accident. You can't blame us for this, right?"
"This data is the value assigned by the company to the production department. This is the data produced under the supervision of your son. Anyone with eyes should be able to see the deviations here. Do you still dare to say that your son has no responsibility? If my father came to the company that night, neither you nor your son would have had a good ending!"
Zhang Dongliang looked unhappy. He said, "No one wants this to happen, but it all comes down to Mr. Gu being too aggressive. He rashly snatched many projects from the Zhan Group, which are not the types we are good at, so it is inevitable that some problems will arise during production."
"My dad's recklessness is his fault, but isn't it the direct cause that his subordinates are incompetent and lazy?"
Gu Xunjing's eyes became increasingly gloomy as he said, "Now that you say you want to take my father's position, you should first resolve the mess your son has made."
