The purpose of today’s board meeting was to appoint a new president.
Grandpa Ji and Ye Shengge had just walked out of the office when they saw Qiao Yanze walking out of the elevator.
He walked to them and said, “Grandpa Ji, Sister-in-law. I’m not late, am I?”
“Yanze?” Grandpa Ji looked at him in surprise.
“I’m here to apply for the position of executive president,” Qiao Yanze said. “I know Shiting’s plans and ideas for the company. I’ll protect his efforts.”
“That’s not appropriate.” Grandpa Ji shook his head. “I know your family’s situation. This decision isn’t worth it for you.”
Qiao Yanze didn’t have shares in T.S. Corporation, so he could only get a fixed salary as the executive president. As the fourth son of the Qiao family, Qiao Yanze was already at a disadvantage in the fight for the inheritance. At this critical time, it wasn’t worth it for him to focus on T.S. Corporation.
pAn,D a-n0ve1,c-o-m “Grandpa Ji.” Qiao Yanze looked solemn. “I can’t sit back and watch Shiting’s efforts be destroyed. If it weren’t for him, most of the corporations in Yang City would’ve gone bust. As for the problem you’re worried about, I don’t care at all.”
Grandpa Ji hesitated.
Ye Shengge suddenly said, “Fourth Young Master, you’re not suitable. After all, you’re representing the Feng Qiao Corporation. Although Grandpa and I trust you, the board of directors will find it difficult to believe that you don’t have second thoughts.”
Qiao Yanze frowned and looked at Grandpa Ji. “Do you have a better candidate?”
Grandpa Ji fell silent.
People who are capable of being the executive president often have their own ambitions and wouldn’t want to follow the rules. This was what he and Ye Shengge couldn’t stand the most.
They had set off from the premise that Ji Shiting would come back sooner or later, so they were trying their best to protect his efforts, but others wouldn’t think so.
“I have a plan, grandpa,” Ye Shengge said.
…
All the directors of T.S. Corporation who had the right to vote gathered in the meeting room. They couldn’t help looking at Ye Shengge with surprise, suspicion, and even contempt.
However, Ye Shengge didn’t show any fear.
“I won’t hide it from you anymore,” Grandpa Ji said. “Shiting is indeed missing.”
There was an uproar in the meeting room.
“As you can see, this is Shiting’s wife, Ye Shengge. Before Shiting returns, she’ll inherit Shiting’s shares to become a director and exercise her right to vote,” Grandpa Ji said. “Also, I’ll be the executive president for now until Shiting returns.”
One of the directors couldn’t help saying, “Chairman, I’m not having doubts about your capabilities but you’re old after all… You can be the acting president for a few months, but what about in the future?”
“That’s right!”
“I know you still have hope and want to wait for Mr. Ji to return but he has been missing for so long. The chances of survival are slim…”
“It’s a pity that something like that has happened to Mr. Ji but the company can’t go on like this. We have to be responsible for all the shareholders!”
“Before February next year, the chairman will be acting as the executive president,” Ye Shengge suddenly said, and her calm voice drowned out all the discussion. “I’ll take over as the executive president in four months.”
Everyone in the meeting room fell silent.
Everyone thought they had heard wrongly and looked at her blankly.
