"It's best to take precautions early!"
"Does everyone agree?" the board secretary asked.
Then a vote was taken by show of hands. Soon, the approval rate approached 50%. Lu Feng became a little anxious and raised his hand to vote against. The approval and disapproval were basically even, with only one new shareholder remaining who had not yet expressed his opinion. He was a bespectacled, refined-looking man.
He holds more than 15 percent of the shares and is the second person, besides Lu Feng, to break into the board of directors of Chen's Capital in the recent turmoil. Many people even believe that Lu Feng was just covering for this person.
"I object!" the man declared.
"Let's discuss this matter again. Opinions are about the same. For the sake of the company's development, I hope everyone will think it over and communicate more privately, prioritizing the company's interests."
The board meeting discussed the development direction for the second half of the year, especially what to do if a situation like Lu Feng were to occur again. The board's entry requirements were revised, which can be seen as increasing the cost of the next 'Lu Feng' attack.
It was almost noon when they left the meeting room. Chen's Capital had arranged lunch, but Lu Feng didn't eat. This matter was finally over. Yesterday, Mr. Feng had called him and asked him to have lunch at the Feng family's house today, which would be a good opportunity to say goodbye.
Lu Feng talks to Jiang Xiaoyan on the phone every day, but his mind is already back home; he wants to go back too.
Lu Feng arrived at the parking lot and got into his car. Just then, President Chen got out and drove off, seemingly no longer wanting to concern herself with Chen's Capital.
"This woman seems to be holding a grudge against someone," Lu Feng muttered.
Lu Feng's guess was correct. Chen Shufeng was angry with the entire board of directors. She founded the company and worked hard, but these investors were just bringing in money, yet they treated her like a thief.
Chen Shufeng didn't harbor such resentment towards Lu Feng. What angered her even more was that the board members refused to give her money to invest in the stock market at a crucial moment. Since everyone didn't care about the company's survival and only wanted to make money, she decided to quit.
I don't care who it is!
Chen Shufeng wanted to make them anxious. For the remaining six months, she would ignore everything and wait for these people to come to her, kneeling before her and begging her to go back and take charge.
When President Chen returned to the villa, Su Yourong, who had just finished tidying up the house, was surprised to see him return and asked, "Weren't you attending the board meeting?"
"I've already finished." Mr. Chen said with a dark face as he sat down at the shoe-changing area.
Su Yourong knelt down to help her change her shoes and asked with concern, "Did the discussion not go well?"
"It's not an unpleasant matter, it's just that they're not giving me any face. Anyway, it doesn't matter. I won't step down until the end of the year, so I can keep having fun. I won't go for the next six months. Just watch, they'll be begging me before the end of the year," President Chen said confidently.
Su Yourong's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, but she kept a good expression on her face and comforted him, "Those people are just ungrateful. You're so tired all day long. It's better if you don't go and rest at home."
"Have you cooked?" Mr. Chen asked.
"not yet."
"I'm going upstairs to rest for a bit. You go buy groceries. Let's rest for a few days first." Mr. Chen ordered a few dishes, stretched his body, and went upstairs.
Su Yourong nodded in agreement, changed her shoes, and went to buy groceries, but she was unhappy about how long it would take. Half a year?
She can barely stand half a month, and now she has to wait another six months?
If she really does ignore the situation for the next six months, Chen's Capital's performance is likely to decline sharply, and the board of directors will be under pressure to keep her as executive chairman.
In that case, when will I ever get my chance to succeed?
Su Yourong parked her car in the supermarket parking lot, her eyes filled with ruthlessness. She was determined not to let this hard-won opportunity slip away.
"Chen's Capital is mine!"
Su Yourong understood that this matter needed to be considered carefully. After getting off the car, she found a phone booth and called Lu Feng. However, the call was transferred to the hotel front desk, who informed her that Lu Feng was not at the hotel.
"If he comes back, tell him I'll call him tonight and ask him to answer the phone." Su Yourong said, then hung up and walked into the supermarket.
Inside the Feng family's restaurant, Mr. Feng, Feng Zhiyao, Zhenkun, and Lu Feng sat at the table. It was a genuine family banquet, and being able to dine with Mr. Feng was something that ordinary businessmen could only dream of.
Lu Feng raised his glass and said, "I still have to thank Mr. Feng for his help. Otherwise, I would never have been able to join the board of directors of Chen's Capital on my own. This is a great relief."
