Chapter 273 Huang Hongtao sows discord
"Okay, cousin," Tian Zhuang replied.
He smiled and flattered Huang Hongtao, "However, no matter how difficult he is, he is no match for you, cousin. When are you going to join other shareholders in removing him as chairman?"
Huang Hongtao said with a cold face, "Do you think it is so easy to remove the chairman? He has not done anything to let the group down. This kind of thing has to be done slowly. We have to make the shareholders disappointed in him and hate him first."
Tian Zhuang: "The shareholders should have some opinions about this matter, right?"
Huang Hongtao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Anyway, he has offended the media. Let's see if the group's stock will fall tomorrow."
Tian Zhuang smiled confidently, "It will definitely fall. This Gu Yunchi is too stupid. We created such a good persona for him as a single young talent, but he insisted on announcing his married status. I really don't understand."
"Does he really love his wife, or is he afraid of offending his father-in-law?"
Huang Hongtao: "Neither, he's just stupid and young and impetuous. Such a person will suffer a great loss sooner or later. However, let's wait and see him suffer a great loss before we take action. Okay, eat quickly, I have a distinguished guest coming later."
Tian Zhuang put down his chopsticks and said, "Then I'll go back and eat. My wife has cooked at home."
Huang Hongtao: "Okay, go call the boss lady and ask her to pack up these dishes and take them back. I have already ordered for the next table, so don't waste them."
Tian Zhuang: "Okay, thank you cousin, I'll ask the boss lady to bring some take away boxes."
Tian Zhuang walked for about ten minutes carrying the packed vegetables when Huang Hongtao's distinguished guest arrived.
The man entered the box, and Huang Hongtao stood up and politely asked him to sit down, "Qingdong is here, please sit down. It's been a long time since we sat down together like this and had a good chat. You have worked hard during this period."
Gu Qingdong sat down and replied politely, "Uncle Huang, please sit down. I'm so sorry to ask Uncle Huang to treat us. It should be me who treats you. Uncle Huang has worked the hardest since my dad left."
Huang Hongtao: "Well, we are one family, so there is no need to say such things. How can I watch the group that the old man worked so hard to build fall down? Besides, I am also a part of Anyuan."
Gu Qingdong: "Anyuan has come this far because of heroes like Uncle Huang who work hard. We all remember him in our hearts."
Huang Hongtao's eyes flashed when he heard this, "I wish everyone thought like you."
Gu Qingdong looked at Huang Hongtao, was silent for a moment, and said, "Uncle Huang, I heard about Yun Chi's interview."
Huang Hongtao: "You don't think that I am harming Yunchi, do you? I was the one who proposed the interview, and I was also the one who asked the reporter to help conceal his marriage, but I really did it for Yunchi's own good."
"Look, our group's stock has gone up."
Gu Qingdong stood up and refilled Huang Hongtao's cup with tea, "How could I not know Uncle Huang's good intentions? I believe Yun Chi also knows your good intentions. Maybe he was pressured by his father-in-law."
"We are all people in the business world. The Lu family may think that Yun Chi does not respect them. Uncle Huang should also understand that Yun Chi is caught in the middle and it is difficult for him. But now it has been resolved and it's over."
Huang Hongtao was silent. He picked up the cup and took a sip of tea. He looked at Gu Qingdong and continued:
"Qingdong, I actually can't understand your parents' behavior. How long have you worked at Anyuan? How much have you done for Anyuan? We shareholders have seen it all."
"But your father transferred all the shares to Yun Chi and asked him to take over. He has no business experience at all, and he became the chairman right away. This is totally unacceptable."
"Also, your mother did the same thing. She actually transferred all her shares to Meichan. Do you know what people outside are saying? They say your mother is mentally ill. Who would give all their shares to their daughter?"
"Don't blame Uncle Huang for being too talkative. Uncle Huang is just sad and unwilling to accept it for you. You have done so much for your Gu family, and you are the one who works the hardest and is the most tired, but in the end, you got nothing."
Huang Hongtao said this while observing Gu Qingdong's expression.
But the other party always maintained a faint smile, without any ripples.
Gu Qingdong waited for Huang Hongtao to finish speaking, then stood up and refilled his tea before slowly speaking:
"Uncle Huang, there are many unfair things in this world. Some things are beyond our control. Since they are beyond my control, why should I dwell on them? Wouldn't that just make things difficult for myself?"
"Isn't that right?"
Huang Hongtao looked straight at Gu Qingdong, unable to guess his true thoughts behind his good face.
He sighed, raised his glass and clinked it with Gu Qingdong, "You're right, Uncle Huang should learn from you and not be too picky. No matter what, Yun Chi and Mei Chan are all family to you."
"A family cannot ruin the harmony over these things. Come, cheers, everything will be in the wine."
Gu Qingdong smiled, raised his glass and toasted with Huang Hongtao.
After drinking, Gu Qingdong asked casually, "Uncle Huang, I heard that the proposal for your new project was rejected by Yun Chi?"
Huang Hongtao paused, "Ah... yes, you are talking about the new energy vehicle plan, right?"
Gu Qingdong looked at Huang Hongtao: "Yes, Uncle Huang is interested in new energy vehicles?"
Huang Hongtao: "Of course. Wasn't there a new policy recently? Ten years from now, our Jiangbei City will ban gasoline vehicles from passing through. Not only our Jiangbei City, but similar policies are being introduced across the country."
"Look at your uncle Huafeng Group. They have already started to seize the initiative and have already produced cars. Once their new energy vehicles pass quality inspection and are listed on the market, their stocks will definitely rise."
"By then, what will Anyuan be able to compare with others?"
Gu Qingdong picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it on the plate. "Uncle Huang is right. I have also been observing the new energy vehicle market recently and have also thought about developing this market. We must keep up with the progress of the times."
Huang Hongtao was overjoyed to receive Gu Qingdong's affirmation, "Yes, only by keeping up with the progress of the times can we avoid being eliminated."
Gu Qingdong: "Uncle Huang, don't be anxious. I will wait for the right opportunity to find out what Yun Chi has to say."
Huang Hongtao: "Okay, thank you for your hard work. It will be better if you talk to Yun Chi than for me to do it. You raised him, so you are like his father. He will definitely listen to you."
Gu Qingdong's eyes deepened and he replied with a smile: "There is no father and son in the business world, Uncle Huang, you still don't know Yun Chi well enough. He is a man with ideas... However, if it is a feasible project, I believe he will agree."
The meal lasted more than an hour, and when Huang Hongtao came out of the box, he was already drunk.
Gu Qingdong helped Huang Hongtao into the car and asked Huang Hongtao's driver to take him back.
After watching Huang Hongtao's car leave, he got into his car and asked the driver to take him home.
Gu Qingdong returned home.
His wife, Song Wanrou, came forward and took the suit jacket from his hand. She stretched her neck and sniffed it, then complained, "Why are you drinking so much again? The company isn't yours, why are you working so hard?"
Gu Qingdong was displeased, "What nonsense are you talking about? That's the company left by my father."
Song Wanrou curled her lips and said, "Yes, but your beloved father gave all the shares to his eldest grandson instead of to you, his son. And your mother gave all the shares to her daughter instead of her son."
Gu Qingdong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand and slapped Song Wanrou in the face.
