Chapter 195: Making a scene at the shareholders' meeting
Everyone in the conference room was shocked.
Gu Yunchi and Lan Yu looked at each other, neither of them said a word.
Huang Hongtao was a worldly-wise man, so he kept his composure and said, "Even so, Yun Chi still holds the most shares, and the former chairman has appointed Yun Chi as his successor. Yun Chi is the new chairman."
"I guessed you would say that," Gu Qingsheng walked to the conference table, opened his arms and continued, "Ladies and gentlemen, if I were you, I would think carefully about whether you want a brat who is still wet behind the ears to be the chairman."
"Or should I let my uncle, a capable and experienced person, be the chairman?"
After hearing this, the shareholders began to whisper to each other.
Huang Hongtao quickly gestured upon seeing this, "Everyone, please be quiet. Although Yun Chi is young, his ability is recognized by the former chairman, and his character is obvious to all. I think experience is secondary."
"Besides, he has the former chairman's special assistant Ma Teng and the secretariat to assist him. Furthermore, he has the support of his wife's family, Chairman Lu Yinan. What else do you have to worry about?"
"But Chairman Zhang, I don't know what tricks you used to get the chairman's wife to give you all the shares, even before the former chairman's body was cold."
"As a person like this, I can't believe that you will treat our Anyuan Group employees well in the future."
The shareholders all nodded in agreement. One shareholder stood up and expressed his opinion, "I support Yun Chi taking over the position of chairman. Although Chairman Zhang is more capable and experienced, times have changed."
"I think Anyuan also needs young managers to lead us to develop a broader market, and..." The shareholder said, looking at Zhang Jincheng and continued:
"And Huafeng Group has always been our biggest competitor. If Director Zhang becomes the chairman of Anyuan, won't Anyuan become an appendage of your Huafeng?"
"Anyuan was originally an appendage of Huafeng," Zhang Jincheng's eldest son, Zhang Bogeng, pushed forward and shouted, "Are you all pretending to forget what happened in the past?"
His younger brother Zhang Muyuan also squeezed to the front and said, "Exactly. If it weren't for my grandfather helping Anyuan out with money and then introducing business to Anyuan, would Anyuan be where it is today?"
"My grandfather is Anyuan's adoptive parent, so Anyuan should be returned to our Lin family!"
Huang Hongtao looked at the two brothers and said, "You are right. When Anyuan encountered a crisis, it was indeed your grandfather who paid money to help Anyuan overcome the difficulties. But we did not take the money for free."
"Chairman Gu used his shares to buy the money. As for the business assistance later, it was also mutual. Your grandfather introduced business to our Anyuan, and we also gave kickbacks to your Huafeng."
"So Anyuan doesn't owe your grandfather anything, nor does it owe you Huafeng. Instead, you became jealous when you saw Anyuan growing bigger and doing better, and used such despicable means to grab shares."
"Mr. Huang, I don't allow you to say that about my uncle. The shares were given to my uncle voluntarily by my mother," Gu Qingsheng interrupted.
Huang Hongtao narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Qingsheng. "Hey, Qingsheng, I'm wondering, what did you say last night when you heard that your dad gave all the shares to Yun Chi?"
"You said that as children of the Gu family, you should all have a share. Why did you give it all to Yun Chi? Now that your mother has given all the shares to outsiders, you are happy. What's the matter? Yun Chi is not a member of your Gu family?"
Gu Qingsheng choked.
Huang Hongtao took a breath and said, "Okay, since you said your mother did it voluntarily, let her tell everyone herself."
In fact, when Zhang Yulan was pushed in just now, Huang Hongtao discovered something unusual.
Zhang Yulan's eyes were unfocused, she kept looking straight ahead, and she kept her lips tightly pursed without saying a word.
Gu Qingsheng quickly squatted down in front of Zhang Yulan and said, "Mom, tell them that you gave your shares to your uncle voluntarily."
Everyone's eyes fell on Zhang Yulan.
Zhang Yulan still had that dazed look on her face, staring straight ahead.
Huang Hongtao looked at Gu Qingsheng, "Qingsheng, is this what you mean by voluntary? Given your mother's mental state, no matter what she does, it will not count. So, we will not recognize that you voluntarily gave the shares to your uncle."
"If you have nothing else to do, please leave here immediately and don't delay our new chairman's inauguration ceremony."
Gu Qingsheng was furious. "What position? You said it yourself. My father's body is still warm, and you are so impatient to find someone to take his place?"
Huang Hongtao laughed angrily, "Qingsheng, this is what your father said in his will. Why are you reacting so violently and even bringing people here to cause trouble? Do you want to be the chairman yourself?"
Gu Qingsheng's face turned purple, "When did I say I wanted to be the chairman? Don't talk nonsense, the chairman should be my uncle, only he is qualified."
The other shareholders couldn't help but blame Gu Qingsheng:
"Qingsheng, you're being disloyal, you know that? Have you forgotten your last name?"
"Exactly, Qingsheng, you're giving away your father's hard work to outsiders. What's your intention?"
"That's really nonsense. Will you still have the nerve to see your father in the future?"
The shareholders who originally supported Zhang Jincheng, after seeing that everyone supported Gu Yunchi, quietly moved behind Huang Hongtao.
Gu Qingsheng was furious when he saw this. He pointed at the shareholders and cursed, "You traitors, what did you tell me before you came here? Are you going to support them now?"
The shareholders all turned their heads and said nothing.
Zhang Jincheng didn't expect that these shareholders all supported Gu Yunchi, that green-eyed kid.
He realized that he had underestimated Gu Yunchi.
At this moment, Lu Yinan suddenly came with his son Lu Chengfeng.
When Lan Yu saw his father and brother, he quickly stood up and ran over, "Dad, brother, you're here."
Lu Yinan touched his daughter's head lovingly and said softly, "You are pregnant, don't run like this. If you fall, Yun Chi will blame Dad."
Gu Yunchi stood up and greeted, "Dad, big brother."
Lu Yinan nodded slightly. He turned to Zhang Jincheng and asked with a smile, "Chairman Zhang, why are you here too? Are you here to support my son-in-law Yun Chi like me?"
Zhang Jincheng's face turned red instantly.
He glared at Gu Yunchi resentfully and shouted to his two sons, "Bo Geng, Mu Yuan, let's go."
Zhang Bogeng pointed at Zhang Yulan, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and asked, "Dad, what about Auntie?"
Zhang Jincheng raised his lips with a cunning smile, "Since Yun Chi inherited all of your uncle's shares and became the heir of the Gu family, your aunt should be taken care of by him, the eldest grandson, in her old age."
"Yun Chi, I will watch you. If you dare to send my sister back to the nursing home, I will definitely not sit idly by."
Gu Qingsheng also echoed, "That's right, Yunchi, you have taken all the benefits. You should also be responsible for my mother's retirement. I will keep an eye on you and your wife."
"If you don't want to provide for my mother's retirement, then give up my father's shares and divide them equally among us."
