Seven days later, the Grobe Military Industry Group held its annual high-level meeting.
There is silence in the 1,000-square-meter conference room on the second floor of the Penang Moon Temple.
The meeting was scheduled for 8 p.m., but it was already 7:55 p.m. and no one had shown up.
Yong Zhixu looked at Tang Xili, who was sitting in the main seat, flipping through the financial statements with a calm demeanor, and was a little curious.
Why is the meeting held at night? Why is there no one here now? Are they supposed to come on time?
At 7:58, Secretary Jian brought in a document, whispered a few words in Tang Xili's ear, then went out and locked the door of the conference room from the outside.
This made Yong Zhixu even more confused. "Why is the door locked? Are you canceling the meeting?"
"You'll understand later." Tang Xili smiled mysteriously.
The second hand on the wall turned circle by circle, and when it reached 8 o'clock, the large curved screen opposite the oval conference table that was more than 20 meters long suddenly lit up automatically.
At the same time, on those neatly arranged, empty seats, a snowflake-like light spot first appeared, and then converged into 3D holographic projection images.
These real-time images include men and women, European and American faces, black faces, and Asian faces, about eighty or ninety of them, all dressed in suits and with serious expressions.
Looking at these images that appeared out of thin air, Yong Zhixu immediately understood that this was a virtual meeting.
So that's why no one came.
He thought that the top management had strict discipline and would come on time, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
But why virtual?
It’s not that we can’t afford to hold in-person meetings, but isn’t virtual meetings more cost-effective?
Yong Zhixu tilted his head and scanned the faces of each holographic image one by one. The more he looked, the deeper the surprise in his eyes.
Because he discovered that these people were not ordinary people.
The young man diagonally opposite with a piece of cloth on his head is the little prince of Dubai who wanted to buy pink diamonds from Tang Xili at the Wall Street Expo last time.
The person on my right was Admiral Barlot from Manhattan, USA, whom I had seen on the news a few days ago.
There are two people standing right opposite, one is the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia and the other is the Marquis of Thailand. Further to the right are senior officials from several East Asian countries.
There are many other characters who have been seen in international news.
Not only that, the Michel family and the Ferroy family, two of the top ten conglomerates, are also among them.
Yong Zhixu had anticipated that the top management of Grobe was extraordinary, but he didn't expect that they were actually cabinet leaders and celebrities from various countries!
Just as he was shocked, a person slowly emerged from nowhere at the seat at the end of the conference table.
The man was wearing a black printed shirt with his collar half open, a cigarette between his fingers, and he looked casual and uninhibited. "Evelyn, good evening, long time no see."
Yong Zhixu's eyes paused, Han Song!
He is actually also a senior executive of grobe.
At this time, Han Song also noticed Yong Zhixu. He was stunned at first, then rolled his eyes.
Although he decided to let go, it doesn't mean that he has no feelings anymore. When he suddenly saw Yong Zhixu, Han Song still felt very displeased.
Yong Zhixu was speechless when he rolled his eyes at him and ignored him.
With Han Song taking the lead, other senior executives in the conference room also greeted her, "Evelyn, good evening, long time no see."
Tang Xili stood up, a faint smile on her face that showed no sign of stage fright. "Everyone, good evening. Tonight is our Grobe Group's annual general meeting. Before the meeting begins, let me first introduce our new members to you."
She extended her hand and pointed at Davidson. "This is Mr. Davidson DuPont, who holds 0.5% of the group's shares. This is Mr. Yong Zhixu, who holds 1% of the group's shares. Let us welcome you both to join us."
"Wow—" Applause broke out in the conference room.
Davidson often appeared in the financial news, and many people present recognized him. As for Yong Zhixu, besides Davidson and Han Song, only the Little Prince of Dubai recognized him. "Aren't you the vice president from the last expo?"
Yong Zhixu greeted him in English, "Prince Carl, good evening."
"Hello, hello..." Carl looked at Yong Zhixu, then at Tang Xili. The last time he saw Evelyn, he vaguely felt that Evelyn had an unusual relationship with this man.
Looking at it now, I still think it is extraordinary.
1% of the shares... the same amount as he holds, and he also invested 100 billion?
Not that many actually.
A few days ago, Yong Zhixu settled his personal assets. He had earned more than 80 billion US dollars from his side businesses over the years.
Although it was a drop in the bucket for Yu Tangxili, he still had to show his attitude. On the night he returned to Malaysia with her, Yong Zhixu handed over all his assets.
Other good men do this, so he wants to do it too.
He wants to give her everything he has.
What made Yong Zhixu feel frustrated was that no matter how much he tried, Tangxi Pear refused to take it.
Finally, Tang Xili was pestered to no end and invested the 80 billion yuan. Thus, he unexpectedly became a shareholder of Grobe Group.
It was not until this moment that Yong Zhixu realized that not everyone was qualified to become a shareholder of Grobe. Even Han Song, who had the smallest stake of only 0.3%, had a pivotal position in the global drug market.
Here, after introducing the new members, the meeting officially began. Tang Xili took the remote control, opened the PPT, and began to summarize the report of the past year.
These should have been the work of the administrative department, but due to the special status of senior officials, the fewer people who knew about it, the better, so the report was made by Tang Xili personally every year.
After a brief summary, Tang Xili brought out the overall planning plan for the new year and gave clear instructions to each branch on the future development direction.
In fact, these senior executives basically just distribute the money and have no real power. Only a few of them hold important positions.
Tang Xili holds 52% of the group's shares and has absolute controlling rights. No one can interfere with any of its decisions.
In the past few years, there were few senior executives and Tang Xili was young, so the strategies they proposed were not yet mature and thorough, and the older generation of senior executives could still give some suggestions.
But as the number of senior executives increased, young leaders also sprang up like mushrooms after a rain, and grew up to the point where they no longer needed their attention or guidance.
In the past, they supported the wolf cubs and walked forward, but now the lion drags them into the sky.
Once upon a time, some people thought about seizing power and taking over the group for themselves.
However, don't be fooled by this leader's young age, she is extremely ruthless. If anyone dares to act rashly, she will expose the evidence of their side business. The betrayer will lose his reputation and his family will be destroyed.
After getting restless, everyone lay down.
As long as they don't betray us, there will be endless money to spend every year. It is mutually beneficial, so why not do it?
This is the secret of Grobe becoming the world's largest military group.
To put it bluntly, it means that you have strong connections.
