Xiao Bing and Yezi chatted in the office for a while. The funeral of Ye Bancheng, Ye Tianming, and Ye Xinyi had been arranged by the housekeeper. In recent days, no matter how stressed and tired Yezi was, she had to cheer up. There were too many things that she needed to deal with.
Xiao Bing felt sorry for Yezi, especially when he saw the bloodshot eyes of Yezi.
Xiao Bing did not know why these women who had a good relationship with him were in so much trouble. Perhaps it was just like what Lil Bei said. From another perspective, his existence was to protect these women who were in trouble. This was also a kind of motivation that urged him to continue to become stronger.
About 20 minutes later, Secretary Li knocked on the door and came in. Yezi looked at Secretary Li and asked, "Sister Li, how are the directors informed?"
Li Huiyong looked very smart and capable. She said concisely, "Second Miss, let me explain it to you in detail first. Your father, the former chairman, holds 51% of the company's shares and has absolute control of the company. Before the chairman passed away, he gave you 5% of the shares and 10% of the shares to the eldest miss. That is to say, you originally only owned 5% of the shares, but because the chairman, the eldest young master and the eldest miss are all gone, according to the country's property inheritance law, all 51% of the shares will be inherited under your name."
"In addition, the company originally had six shareholders, but Mr. Zhang Haide, the largest shareholder, owns 15% of the shares of the whole company. This 15% was also bought by Miss Ye Xinyi before her death. So the shares held by the entire Ye family have reached an absolute majority of 66%!"
Xiao Bing said next to her, "That is to say, now they have to obey whatever Yezi says?"
The five shareholders together only accounted for 36% of the shares. Naturally, Ye Xiaoxi had the absolute right to speak.
"The situation is like this … but …"
Xiao Bing asked, "But what?"
"But if Miss Ye can't convince the public, those shareholders also have the right to transfer their shares and leave the company. Since the death of the old chairman, the employees in the company have been very emotional these days. After all, the young master was in charge before. The young master has been in the company for many years. It would be better if he inherited the company. But now it has become Second Missy … I'm afraid … "
Yezi asked straightforwardly, "I'm afraid you can't convince the masses, right?"
"Yes … The business world is like a battlefield. It's a taboo to change the commander frequently, especially if the commander has no experience in war. If the commander makes a mistake, I'm afraid everyone will be buried with him."
Yezi looked at Li Huiyong and asked, "Secretary Li, to be honest, do you think so too?"
Li Huiyong smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, yes … but I am indebted to the old chairman. When my family was in trouble, the old chairman gave me a sum of money. I haven't returned this kindness, so I can only stand on your side at this time."
Yezi smiled helplessly and said, "But not everyone in the company has the experience of Secretary Li, so I'm afraid they are still not convinced that I'm the chairman this time."
Li Huiyong sighed and said, "Miss, you did a good job. You called a board meeting in time. Otherwise, things might have become serious and it would have been out of control. Now the top priority is to calm these shareholders and let them all believe in you. They have been in the company for so many years. If you can get their support, I believe this crisis will soon be over. "
Yezi nodded and looked at the time. She got up and said, "The meeting will start in ten minutes. Let's go first."
Xiao Bing sat there motionlessly and said calmly, "Don't rush."
"Well?"
Xiao Bing said, "Today is the first time you hold a meeting. It's not good to be late. But it will only take about three minutes to get to the conference room from here. We only need to walk into the conference room in the last few seconds. If you want them to support you, the most important thing is not to move them with emotion. Businessmen pursue profit. If you want to get their support, you must first get their respect. You must let them see your fierce side. So, wait."
Yezi sat down. Even if her psychological quality was good, it was the first time she had faced such a big event. It was too difficult for a student who had been studying in school all her life. The shock on the surface could not hide the uneasiness in her heart.
Xiao Bing looked at his watch. After about five or six minutes, he stood up and said, "Let's go to the conference room together."
Li Huiyong took a deep look at Xiao Bing. She was a little surprised. In this man, she actually felt the confidence, calmness and aggressiveness of the old chairman. But he was still a young man who looked younger than her!
After they walked into the conference room, they pushed the door open and walked in together. At this time, there were four people sitting around the round table in the conference room. Xiao Bing looked at the time. It was time for the meeting. According to what Li Huiyong said before, there should be five directors at present, which meant that there was one person who was either late or did not come. He hoped it was the former.
Xiao Bing followed Yezi in. After entering the conference room, Yezi did not show the slightest panic on her face. Even though she was nervous in her heart, she looked calm on the surface. It was rare for a girl who had never experienced the hardships of society to be able to do this. Master Hou's comment that a tiger father would not have a dog was not bad at all.
Xiao Bing sat next to Yezi, and Lil Bei stood behind them.
When the directors saw Xiao Bing sitting down, they all looked very unhappy. One of them, a bald man in his fifties, stood up directly and said with a gloomy face, "Second Missy, this is a high-level meeting of our Ye Group. How can you bring in a person who has nothing to do with the company? I'm afraid it's against the rules, isn't it?"
"Yes, I didn't do that." The other people also began to talk about it. "How can outsiders attend the shareholders' meeting? Who will be responsible if the secret is leaked?"
"The little girl is just a little girl. I know she's not reliable. I think we have to choose a person of virtue and prestige to be the chairman."
"Yes, we can't act recklessly just because we have more shares. Not everyone can be the chairman."
"Alas, I didn't expect the Ye family to be so troubled. The chairman is gone. It would be good if the eldest missy or the eldest young master sat in this position. But there is only a little girl who knows nothing."
Yezi finally realized how difficult it was for her father in the past. If he did not have enough means and dignity, it would be difficult to control thousands of employees in and out of the company, especially the board members present.
These people were still talking. Obviously, they did not take this little girl, who was only 20 years old after her birthday, seriously.
Xiao Bing suddenly raised his hand and tapped on the table with his fingers. While they were still talking, Xiao Bing slapped the table with his hand. Even Ye Xiaoxi and Li Huiyong, who were sitting on both sides, were startled by the loud noise.
The board members were shocked and turned their heads to look at Xiao Bing.
"Sorry, my hands are itchy." Xiao Bing looked at his palm and muttered to himself, "I used to hit people when my hands were itchy. But I haven't decided who to hit today, so I'll slap the table to relieve my itch."
In such a high-level meeting, Xiao Bing behaved like a hooligan. The board members were all stunned. Li Huiyong lowered her head and pretended to take notes, but she was snickering in her heart.
The board members were all stunned. Suddenly, one of them stood up and pointed at Xiao Bing. But his eyes were looking at Ye Xiaoxi, and he said loudly, "Second Missy, I don't know what relationship this person has with you, but we don't allow an outsider like him to attend the board meeting. If he is here, I'm sorry, I'll leave first."
This person was the bald old man who first stirred up trouble. As he stood up, the others also stood up and shouted, "Yes, how can an outsider attend the high-level meeting? Second Missy doesn't know the rules. If he is here, I'll leave too."
"I'll leave too."
"I'll leave too."
These people stood up and were about to leave. Ye Xiaoxi frowned and looked at the bald old man in the lead. She said, "Uncle Zhong, please go first."
The old man stopped, and so did the others, waiting to see what Ye Xiaoxi was going to say.
Ye Xiaoxi said sincerely, "I know that all of you are the senior members of the company. If it weren't for you, the company wouldn't be what it is today. Xiaoxi is very grateful. In addition, you may not be very familiar with the person next to me, but you must have seen him before. I'll give you a detailed introduction. His name is Xiao Bing, my boyfriend. If he was just my boyfriend, I wouldn't have brought him here to meet you so carelessly. He also saved my father's life. It was he who invited Mr. Zhang to help my father. Otherwise, my father would have died a long time ago. Although my father passed away later for some reasons, Brother Xiao was the person my father trusted most when he was alive. "
Ye Xiaoxi's tone was full of sadness. "My father worked hard to build such a big Ye Group. Before he passed away, he told me that all of you are heroes of the group. He asked me to treat you well, respect you, and listen to your opinions. But I'm young and have little social experience. I still need to rely on you to manage the company. I also need a trustworthy friend to help me. So before he passed away, my father specially asked Brother Xiao to help me make a smooth transition."
"Brother Xiao is sitting here now. This is not only my own idea, but also my father's idea. But Brother Xiao is just sitting here as my assistant. He will give me some advice, but he won't really make decisions in the company. You are all my elders, so I hope you can understand."
These people looked at each other. They had already said so much, not to mention that the old chairman had passed away. If they left like this, it would be too unreasonable. They had to return to their seats and sat down again.
Yezi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Then I'll thank you in advance."
Xiao Bing looked at Yezi. The little girl was indeed more mature. After the death fight, the little girl once proposed three strategies in front of his sickbed. That scene still appeared in front of Xiao Bing's eyes. Perhaps this little girl had a kind of wisdom and confidence in her bones. She was not weaker than her brother and sister. But because she did not fight or make trouble, and because she lacked some training, no one noticed it.
But looking at the eyes of these people, Xiao Bing knew that today's situation would not be solved with a few words from Yezi. The real test had just begun.
