Chapter 55 Compensating Her
Jiang Ranxing added somewhat forlornly, "Lin Xuesha..."
Grandpa Fu simply looked at Jiang Ranxing without making any comment.
Grandpa Fu continued, "Shen Yuan has decided that child is the only hope in his life. Since his parents passed away, there has only been one important person in Shen Yuan's life."
Jiang Ranxing then understood what Lin Xuesha meant to Fu Shenyuan.
Jiang Ranxing shook her head and smiled, feeling as if countless cold winds were blowing through her heart, making her feel as if she had lost all warmth.
No wonder Fu Shenyuan was willing to give up everything to stop Lin Xuesha from marrying someone else, preferring to have nothing but Lin Xuesha.
People who have such significance in one's life are indeed very important and should be cherished.
Jiang Ranxing seemed to be able to understand some of Fu Shenyuan's persistence at this moment.
Each of them was persistent in pursuing the one they loved; she was persistent in pursuing Fu Shenyuan, while Fu Shenyuan was persistent in pursuing Lin Xuesha.
One after another, the road seemed to have no end.
Their lives were like a drama unfolding before their eyes.
Only she herself can end this farce.
Seeing Jiang Ranxing's sorrowful expression, Grandpa Fu couldn't bear to say anything more.
Grandpa Fu said, "Ranxing, the reason I'm telling you all this is to tell you the significance of this land to Shen Yuan. The place where he was rescued was by the sea in the countryside."
"The land that Hongkai wants contains the memories of Shen Yuan's parents, the traces of Shen Yuan's rebirth, and of course, your original family and your memories."
Grandpa Fu nodded: "Shen Yuan will not let anyone move that land easily. There is bound to be a conflict between him and Hong Kai. I hope you can stand on Shen Yuan's side and help him protect this land."
"Me? Why me?" Jiang Ranxing asked, puzzled. "I've never interfered in the Fu family's affairs, as you know, Grandpa."
She's the kind of person who wouldn't even take the dividends from the small companies under the Fu family's umbrella, so how could she possibly care about such important decisions?
Besides, she was about to divorce Fu Shenyuan, so she had even less reason to care about those things anymore.
Although that land held many memories for her, she understood that some things were simply beyond her control.
It seemed that Old Master Fu had anticipated that Jiang Ranxing would not agree.
Grandpa Fu got up and took a document in a brown paper bag from his desk.
He handed the document to Jiang Ranxing and said, "Take a look at this, and think it over carefully."
Jiang Ranxing took the document with some skepticism, opened it, and looked at it carefully. Then she was somewhat surprised.
"Grandpa, you're going to give me 10% of the shares in the Fu Group?" Jiang Ranxing suddenly felt that the document was a bit too hot to handle.
“I can’t accept this, Grandpa. I have no interest in these things.”
Jiang Ranxing did not intend to accept these things.
Previously, she only owned shares in companies under the Fu Group; in reality, she did not own any core shares in the Fu Group.
Of course, in the six years since she married Fu Shenyuan, she has never paid attention to things like shares or the company, and she doesn't care about them at all.
What does it mean that Mr. Fu is now offering his shares?
Besides, Old Master Fu also knows that she wants to divorce Fu Shenyuan.
Jiang Ranxing hesitated before saying, "Grandpa, after my divorce from him, I have no connection with the Fu family anymore. You know what I'm thinking. Right now, I just want to work hard to improve my career and get your approval."
As long as Grandpa Fu agrees to their divorce, she will be free soon.
Grandpa Fu pursed his lips and pushed the document in front of Jiang Ranxing again.
"Burning Star, I won't interfere with your efforts in building your career. Of course, I also hope that you can achieve results as soon as possible, but this does not conflict with giving you equity."
Old Master Fu has his own plans.
Old Master Fu then said, "You probably don't understand the equity distribution of the Fu Group. I can explain it to you, and you can consider it after you hear it."
"As you know, Shen Yuan is currently in charge of everything in the group, followed by your second uncle Hongkai. They hold 30% and 25% of the shares respectively."
"Another 5% is in the hands of other members of the Fu family, and the remaining 40% is in my hands."
Grandpa Fu tapped the mahogany chair with his hand, seemingly making precise calculations.
“My shares will inevitably be divided equally between Shen Yuan and Hong Kai. If the current situation is that each of them receives 20% of my shares, and Hong Kai will definitely take over the shares from the other members of the Fu family, then in the future, the two of them will each hold 50% of the shares. You should understand this situation, Ran Xing.”
Jiang Ranxing listened carefully to the calculations that Old Master Fu had made, and she went through them in her mind.
Old Master Fu is right. If Fu Shenyuan and Fu Hongkai each hold half of the shares in Fu's Group in the future, and these two are irreconcilable, it will definitely cause even greater turmoil.
Jiang Ranxing said rationally, "So, Grandpa, you're afraid that if they really split the shares equally in the future, the Fu Group will decline due to internal strife? So you want to give me a portion of the shares to tilt the situation in Fu Shenyuan's favor..."
If Jiang Ranxing takes 10%, then Grandpa Fu will only have 30% left. After splitting it evenly and with some attempts to win him over, Fu Shenyuan and Fu Hongkai will only end up with 45% each.
If Fu Shenyuan were to acquire the remaining 10% from Jiang Ranxing, he would hold 55% of the shares, thus gaining absolute control over the Fu Group.
Fu Hongkai's 45% is not enough to cause much of a stir.
Grandpa Fu nodded in agreement: "I told you you're very smart, Ranxing. You didn't disappoint me; you understood things immediately."
Jiang Ranxing was stunned for a moment, then laughed. No matter how smart she was, she couldn't outsmart the old man in front of her who had been navigating the world of fame and fortune for many years.
Grandpa Fu's move was very clever.
Jiang Ranxing looked at the document and said quietly, "But Grandpa...aren't you afraid that I'm not on Fu Shenyuan's side? What if I switch sides to Second Uncle? Then the one who wins in the end will be Second Uncle, not Fu Shenyuan."
After taking a sip of tea, Old Master Fu smiled, but his smile was enigmatic.
Grandpa Fu continued, "This is also a key factor in why I gave you shares."
Jiang Ranxing didn't understand what Grandpa Fu was referring to.
“When you married Shen Yuan, you didn’t ask for any dowry. In the six years since your marriage, you have added a son to the Fu family and continued the family line. You have made a contribution to the Fu family. Since you have made a contribution, you should be rewarded.”
Grandpa Fu spoke directly and didn't want to beat around the bush.
“I believe that my 10% stake in the Fu family is more than enough to compensate you financially. As for sentiment, I cannot make any compensation on behalf of Shen Yuan.”
Jiang Ranxing, of course, understood Old Master Fu's modesty.
Even a 1% stake in the Fu Group would be priceless, let alone 10%, which would be a very considerable return.
Jiang Ranxing began to hesitate...
