At the board meeting, everyone was solemn.
Today's meeting is about the future development of the entire Lan family!
The Lan family, having previously been supported by the Huang family, became a top-tier wealthy family within the Great Wall, with a stable industrial chain and promising development prospects.
However, after the Huang family's incident, the Lan family's business lost its support and plummeted in less than a month.
If this continues, death is the only outcome!
However, Lanling's investment from Xiongfeng gave the Lan family a new lease on life, allowing them to relocate to Fengtian for development.
The shareholders were happy, but at the same time, they were also a little uneasy.
After all, the interior of the Great Wall was their stronghold, while Fengtian was a completely unfamiliar market. Even with the support of Xiongfeng, the future was still full of unknowns.
But this time it's different; Lan Qi has actually received support from the four major families!
In the present-day Guannei, the Azure Heaven is dead, and the Yellow Heaven shall rise. The four great families have destroyed the Yellow family and become the joint rulers. The Lan family has the support of the four great families. This is the natural order of things, and they will surely rise to prominence in the future!
Although this move by a loyal member of the Huang family might seem like a betrayal, making money is never shameful.
Moreover, this reputation is directed at the Lan family, what does it have to do with their shareholders?
What everyone cares about is nothing more than that tiny bit of profit right under their noses.
Whoever feeds me is my mother!
At this moment, Lan Shanyue had already taken his seat in the main seat and glanced at everyone indifferently.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have two announcements to make at today's board meeting!"
"As you all probably heard, I've already decided to appoint my granddaughter, Lan Ling, as the executive director, to fully represent me and exercise the powers of the board of directors!"
"In addition, our business in the interior has been declining for a month, and it's only a matter of time before it collapses! Fortunately, my granddaughter is very capable and has secured project support from the Xiongfeng Group, so I have decided to move the company's main business to Fengtian and start afresh!"
"This matter will also be fully handled by my granddaughter, Lan Ling!"
"Everyone, does anyone have any objections?"
Lan Shanyue glanced at everyone and finally asked.
After these words were spoken, the shareholders exchanged glances and then fell silent, with no one expressing their opinion.
Lan Shanyue frowned. "Since no one is willing to express their opinion, let's follow the old rule and vote by raising our hands?"
"Those who agree to accept Xiongfeng's support and develop in Fengtian, please raise your hands!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his old eyes swept across the faces of each shareholder.
According to the rules of the board of directors, as long as three or more board members support him, plus himself as the chairman, he can make the decision!
But at this moment, apart from his eldest son Lan Yingquan and his granddaughter Lan Ling, everyone else who heard his words...
Then no one responded!
One vote short!
Lan Shanyue frowned and looked at his second son, Lan Yingze, and his grandson, Lan Qi.
As long as the father and son raise their hands, the matter will be settled!
In Lan Shanyue's view, his second son had always been obedient to him, and this time he would never dare to oppose him.
But at this moment, Lan Yingze and his son remained expressionless and showed no intention of responding at all!
Lan Shanyue said coldly, "Yingze, what do you mean? Do you also intend to defy me?"
In the past, Lan Yingze would probably have been so frightened that he would have stood up immediately, but at this moment, he seemed to have a lot of confidence and said calmly.
"Dad, the company doesn't just belong to you. As a shareholder, I also need to consider the company's overall interests!"
"I don't think that giving up the existing market and going to develop in a completely unfamiliar place is the best choice for our Lan family!" Lan Yingze said calmly.
Lan Shanyue frowned. "Then what brilliant idea do you have?"
Lan Yingze immediately said, "My son has now gained the favor of the four major families and has become a director of the United Chamber of Commerce. The four major families intend to promote our Lan family. This is an opportunity that others would beg for. I think we must not miss this opportunity!"
"presumptuous!!"
Lan Shan slammed his large hand on the table.
Everyone was shocked.
Lan Shanyue, his face cold, continued, "Our Lan family is a staunch supporter of the Huang family. Without the Huang family, there would be no Lan family. This is an act of kindness, how can we turn to our enemy for a little bit of profit!"
"Moreover, the four major families are notorious for their evil deeds and injustices. Joining their chamber of commerce would be like asking a tiger for its skin."
"Yingze, all these years of my education of you have been for nothing! Have all your virtues and morality gone to waste?" Lan Shanyue shouted, showing no mercy.
Lan Yingze's face was covered in bruises.
Previously, he had never clashed with his father in any situation, but this time, he knew that he absolutely could not back down!
Because it concerns their future status within the Lan family!
So he mustered his courage and said, "Dad! I don't care what you say to me! But I don't represent myself! Our Lan family mainly deals in logistics and freight, an industry that requires years of accumulation! Besides, the industry has been fiercely competitive in recent years, and the market has long been divided up. In a place like Fengtian, the market is already saturated. If we abandon our existing market and go to an unfamiliar environment, isn't that like throwing away the watermelon to pick up a sesame seed? Even with Xiongfeng's support, will we definitely succeed? These are all unknowns!"
At this moment, Lan Qi, who was standing next to him, quickly said, "Yes, Grandpa, now that I have become a director of the United Chamber of Commerce and have the support of the four major families, our Lan family will definitely have a second rise! This is a sure thing! Do you think it's worthwhile to use this sure thing to exchange for an unpredictable future?"
"I doubt that any of the shareholders here would agree to that either?"
As soon as Lan Qi finished speaking, all the shareholders nodded in agreement, supporting his statement.
The father and son had finally spoken their minds.
"you!"
Lan Shanyue was so angry that he felt dizzy. He never expected that this father and son would actually dare to go against him at the board meeting!
He slammed his hand on the table and snorted, "No one can question my decisions! Since you and your son disagree, I will expel you both from the board of directors. You have no right to speak! As the chairman, I have veto power. I will never agree to your attempt to side with the four major families!"
Lan Yingze's face darkened as he said, "Dad! Don't go too far! Even though I only have a tiny share, I'm still a shareholder. You have no right to kick us out!"
"Furthermore, as a shareholder, I also have the right to impeach the chairman!"
As he spoke, he slowly stood up and announced loudly, "Now, I hereby announce the formal impeachment of Chairman Lan Shanyue! Those who agree to remove Lan Shanyue from office, please raise your hands!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Shanyue's old body trembled, and even Lan Yingquan and his daughter Lan Ling showed an incredulous expression.
Unexpectedly, Lan Yingze actually wants to impeach the old man?
