"I know." Li Yangzhou's voice was steady.
He turned his head slightly to face his third uncle, his sunglasses as dark as a deep pool reflecting the bright white light of the conference room.
Uncle San's heart trembled, and his fingers trembled suddenly.
He didn't dare to look up at Li Yangzhou's sunglasses. He always felt that Li Yangzhou was staring at him through the sunglasses.
"Ahem—" Uncle cleared his throat and looked at him.
After receiving the elder brother's reminder, the third uncle quickly collected his thoughts, and asked with a stern expression:
"Yangzhou, Jiajinzhou subway project, Changxi Port cross-sea bridge, PM Group artificial intelligence project, Hyde Town Resort project... these are all key projects of the Li family, and they've all been lost."
Uncle San was heartbroken. He glanced around and then stared at Li Yangzhou. He said, "Shouldn't we summarize the reasons for our failure?"
The conference room was dead silent, and no one present dared to breathe.
Li Yangzhou said calmly, "Well, then Uncle San, what do you think are the reasons for the failure of these projects?"
He looked calm, neither sad nor happy, neither angry nor irritated, and just sat steadily in the front seat, as if he was born to be the king here.
He raised his hand to his third uncle who was sitting below him, indicating that he should express his opinion, just like a monarch who controls the world and benevolently allows his subordinates to express their views.
Uncle San's eyes looked a little dizzy, and he kept looking at his eldest brother.
Uncle Li paused and asked him to get to the point.
Uncle San secretly encouraged himself, swallowed his saliva, stood up, and said loudly: "Because of your current physical condition, they have lost confidence in our Li Group. They don't know where our Li Group will go, and they dare not cooperate with us!"
Just like a huge rock was thrown into a stagnant pool of water, the dull meeting room was suddenly filled with noise by Uncle San's words.
Other executives whispered.
Some people looked embarrassed, thinking that the vice president of the Li family was too blunt and showed no mercy to President Li. It would have been better if he had expressed himself in a more tactful way.
Some people expressed their support. Li Yangzhou is the president and chairman of the Li Group. He is the actual person in charge of the Li Group. Every aspect of his influence affects the future of the Li Group and its current stock price.
A few months ago, because Mr. Li suddenly became blind, Li’s stock price has fallen by several points.
Many companies that wanted to cooperate with Li have also suspended project contacts, or are temporarily waiting and watching, or looking for other partners.
It can be said that Mr. Li’s blindness has caused considerable losses to the Li Group and also affected the future development of the Li Group.
We should face this issue as soon as possible and have a good discussion as to whether Mr. Li is still suitable to continue to stay in the position of president and chairman.
Some people also looked angry. These people were relatively young and were all promoted by Liyang Prefecture.
They were classified as Mr. Li's faction by the company, so naturally they had to do their best to maintain Mr. Li's position in the company.
One person couldn't hold back and stood up to refute.
"I know the projects Vice President Li mentioned. Regarding the Jiajinzhou subway project, the local government is heavily in debt, and the local finances are struggling to support subsequent construction. The Changxi Port Cross-Sea Bridge hasn't been evaluated by experts, and a highly experienced professor in the industry has expressed his opposition. The artificial intelligence project has great prospects, but the PM Group has become a shell company. This time, the other party is most likely trying to siphon off investment funds and then run away. And the Hyde Town Resort project..."
He snorted coldly and said, "The country's policies have changed, and the public security situation has deteriorated dramatically. It has a very bad reputation domestically. Who would go to the resort there? What good prospects can it have?"
"The project has serious hidden dangers, so naturally we won't discuss it further. Everyone here attended the project evaluation meeting. You should all be aware of the whole process. Isn't Vice President Li aware of it?"
Uncle Li's face turned pale and he sat down awkwardly.
The title of vice president is just a nice title. In fact, Liyang Prefecture has already sidelined him and he has no real power at all.
So he always missed the company's meetings and didn't know anything about the company's resolutions.
His elder brother asked him to talk about these projects, so he just said them directly without any verification.
When the eldest uncle of the Li family saw that his third brother was discouraged by a young man, he cursed in his heart that it was useless.
He raised his hand, looking impartial. "Everyone, please keep your mouth shut. Although the Third Brother doesn't understand the company's situation, he cares more about the development of the Li Group than anyone else."
"Because President Li's recent poor health has affected the progress of many projects, and even directly affected the results of some projects, this is beyond doubt."
"The third brother also heard about this situation, which is why he said what he said just now. He made mistakes in mentioning those projects, but his words were not wrong."
He rested his elbows on the table, crossed his fingers, and looked at Li Yangzhou with a cold gaze.
The voice was as cold as a poisonous snake hunting for food.
"So, Yangzhou, we should discuss this issue. Are you still fit to continue leading Li Enterprises in your current situation?"
There was silence all around. After a few seconds, Li Yangzhou's voice sounded in a deep voice.
"Of course it's suitable. Besides me, who else can lead the Li Group?"
Li Yangzhou stood up and said coldly, "Uncle, it's not that I didn't give you a chance, but the projects you favored were all scams, and the people you favored were all idiots. They were useless except for messing around and engaging in power struggles. Are you going to lead the Li Group?"
The eldest brother of the Li family clenched his fists, narrowed his eyes, and his eyes were filled with anger.
Li Yangzhou turned to his uncle, Li's third uncle, and asked, "Should I give it to you? Third uncle, you went to Haozhou again a few days ago, right? How much did you lose? Can you still keep the shares and property that grandpa left you?"
Uncle San's shoulders trembled slightly, and he looked away, not daring to look directly at Li Yangzhou's face.
He curled his lips and muttered, "We still have a few little ones in the Li family."
The younger ones in the Li family that he mentioned were his cousins from Liyang Prefecture.
He and his elder brother's legitimate and illegitimate sons were sent to work in the Li Group.
At the beginning, they hoped that brothers would unite and fathers and sons would join forces to form their own power to fight against Liyang Prefecture.
However, the abilities of the younger members of the Li family are not much better than their father, and they have not made any progress in the Li family after working for several years.
Li Yangzhou raised his eyebrows when he heard his uncle's words. "Uncle, which kid are you referring to? Li You, the gambler? He's been fired for being addicted to gambling and absent from work for many days."
"What? You dare to fire my son!" Uncle San suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open, furious.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Su Wanti and Lister were both stunned, but then they quickly reacted and protected Li Yangzhou.
Li Yangzhou gently pushed the two away and said, "It's okay."
He knew that his third uncle was just a paper tiger and would not dare to take any action.
"Gambler, huh—" Uncle's voice sounded faintly.
He stood up, stared at Li Yangzhou, and said, "If we talk about gamblers, Yangzhou, you are also a gambler."
"Gambling should be expelled, but what about you, a gambler? Shouldn't you give up your position?"
Suddenly, everyone was in an uproar.
Mr. Li actually gambles?
