Chapter 249 We Only Hope That There Are No Bad Apples in the Barrel
Dai Raoer walked to the big conference table and put a letter of resignation on it, tapping with her delicate fingers. “I have signed a five-year contract with the group. But now the contract has only been performed for three years. I am willing to pay the penalty for my leave.”
“You...” Master Ge used to be smiling all the time. At the moment, his face suddenly clouded over. He had just been elected as the interim chief executive. Then the Chief Financial Officer resigned. Shame!
Dozens of senior executives were sitting in the conference room. But there was a sudden deathly hush at that time.
A sweet smile flickered over Dai Raoer’s face. She waved to everyone and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, farewell.”
“Stop!” Master Ge was so angry that he thumped on the table with his big and fleshy face contorted.
Dai Raoer still kept her professional smile on her face. She said calmly, “Anything else? Master Ge.”
“You can’t leave now.”
Master Ge said with resentment, “You are the Chief Financial Officer of Yang’s group. The things in the finance department are too complicated. You can’t leave until I find a successor to replace you. A proper handover will also be needed.”
“Sorry, you’re talking about the normal procedure. But as I’ve just said, I am willing to pay the penalty. You can’t make me stay here.” Dai Raoer turned around and walked outside without looking back.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open from outside. Then First Miss Lady Yang’s voice came at the same time. “Raoer, can you stay here for me?”
Yes, it was Yang Shiwen.
First Miss Lady Yang changed her dress into a decent beige suit. A smart little suit, a white shirt and a pair of high-grade pants made her look slenderer.
Coupled with a pair of the 8-cm high-heeled shoes, First Miss Lady Yang looked more elegant. Yang Shiwen was so young for the senior executives. But facing a crowd of astute senior executives, Yang Shiwen was not a little afraid at least, which was so rare.
First Miss Lady Yang walked into the meeting room without even looking at others. She walked directly to Dai Raoer.
Liu Feng followed Yang Shiwen into the room. Brother Feng also wore a tailored suit today, but he was relatively low-profile.
“Sister Raoer, the finance department can’t run without you. Please stay here.” Yang Shiwen took the initiative to pull Dai Raoer’s right hand and shook it kindly.
Dai Raoer smiled and said with regret. “I have just handed in the resignation to the new interim president!”
Aha!
Yang Shiwen covered her mouth and giggled. “Sister Raoer, you must be joking. Yang’s Group used to run with my father, so there is no professional manager serving as the president. Now my father is in the hospital and appoints me the president of Yang’s. You can’t leave without my permission.”
Aha!
Dai Raoer also laughed. Their sweet smiles were so beautiful and charming in the meeting room, which made a lot of people so astonished at one blow.
Liu Feng who was low-profile said in a low voice, “These two girls laugh like goblins. But I like it.”
Bang!
At this moment, Master Ge thumped heavily on the table. He was the new interim chief executive. It was unacceptable that they should ignore him.
It was the move that attracted everyone’s attention to Master Ge again.
“Shiwen, I hope you can accept the reality of something.”
Master Ge was sullen-looking. But he said in a paternal tone. “Your father needs some rest in the hospital. You are just a little girl. Yang’s Group was too large for you to handle. You’re your uncle, I can serve as... ”
“I can handle that.”
Before Master Ge could finish his speech, Yang Shiwen said seriously, “My father built Yang’s Group on his business acumen and courage. Similarly, he has confidence in my ability, so he appoints me the president. Master Ge, you may not trust me. That’s all right. I don’t need your trust. All you need to do is managing the logistics department. Also, as a shareholder, you’d better not overreach.”
“Good point!” Liu Feng praised for Yang Shiwen then. He didn’t keep a low profile this time. He shouted out these words loudly.
“You...” Master Ge flushed with anger. He patted on his chest and said, “I am the shareholder as well as the executive operator. After all, I have been elected as the interim chief executive. I have the say.”
“You don’t have a say here.”
Yang Shiwen said calmly, “If you can’t accept that, you can leave Yang’s Group. I can discount the share that you put in Yang’s for you immediately.”
“Well, Yang Shiwen. Do you just want to kick me out of Yang’s Group?”
Master Ge was even angrier. He opened his eyes wide and shouted, pointing at Yang Shiwen. “I have rendered outstanding service to Yang’s Group. I don’t have much share, but it can be exchanged for hundreds of million yuan. Can you afford that? Kicking me out will also make other shareholders bitterly disappointed. What will they think of you?”
“Yes, Missy. If you want to kick Master Ge out of Yang’s Group, then convert my equity into cash. I’d like to leave.” A man with gold-rimmed glasses also stood up and said, counting with his fingers. “My share is worth less than 100 million. It’s about 60 million.”
“And me.”
A potbellied man also stood up. “I have the least share, but that’s no less than 50 million. One more thing, Missy. If you really want to kick us out, give us money now. We’ll leave immediately.”
At this moment, everyone was looking at the three shareholders. They all knew that it was like forcing the emperor to abdicate.
Of course, the three people were exaggerating the price of their share value. Apparently it was hooliganism. They wanted to get some benefits before they left.
And they knew Yang’s Group well. The total price of these three people reached more than 200 million.
Although Yang’s Group was very rich, the fund operation of it would be in trouble if they appropriated so much money within a day.
Many executives were looking at Yang Shiwen, waiting for her decision. If she flinched, a lot of people who were willing to accept this beautiful young president would be disappointed.
However, if Yang Shiwen was tough to pay so much money, she would put Yang’s Group in danger of capital lack. Her opponents would seize the chance to topple her. That might even bring Yang’s Group to an end.
“No problem.”
Yang Shiwen only thought for a while, and then she said, “Your quotes are actually a little higher than what they really are. But Yang’s Group is an emotional enterprise. Since you all have made some contributions to Yang’s, I won’t bargain with you. According to what you’ve said...”
Saying that, Yang Shiwen snapped her fingers. “Uncle Dong, bring me the equity contracts. Let them sign. After that, I’ll pay them right away.”
Uncle Dong walked in quickly with the equity contracts in his hands. Apparently, there were more than three copies... These contracts were prepared in advance. It meant that Yang Shiwen had expected the situation today. She was ready to make tough decisions.
Seeing the equity contracts, Master Ge and the other two shareholders were shocked, dripping cold sweat in the forehead.
If they were really kicked out of Yang’s Group, their high annual profits were gone. At their age, they no longer had the courage and energy to start up a new business.
“Yang Shiwen, are you sure about that?” Master Ge gnashed and said. “You want to kick me out! Aren’t you afraid that I will perish Yang’s Group?”
“Missy, actually I don’t mean to convert my share into cash. I think I’d better remain a silent shareholder.”
“Right, Missy. In fact, I am deceived by Master Ge. You are a leader with generous magnanimity. Can you forget my words? I don’t mean to leave.”
Just when Master Ge was about to be furious, the gold-rimmed glasses and the potbellied cowered unexpectedly.
Mater Ge felt that he was betrayed by his allies when he was about to kill the enemy. He was so angry that he almost stunned.
But then, Liu Feng who was low-profile raised his voice. “Sorry, those who were against Shiwen just now must get out of Yang’s Group. We had already prepared enough funds before we came here. We can afford more than 1 billion, let alone 200 million. We only hope that there are no bad apples in the barrel!”
Hearing what Liu Feng said, Dai Raoer looked at him with respect for the first time. Then there was a strange light flashing in her eyes.
“Excuse me, who are you? Do you mean that I am a bad apple in the barrel?”
Master Ge went mad already. He pointed at Liu Feng and shouted. “All right! Give me the money right away! I promise I’ll leave after I get my money.”
Then the man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and the potbellied man also pretended to be tough. Liu Feng left them no choice. So, they would even look down on themselves if they cowered again.
“Okay, give us the cash now. We will sign the contracts at once.”
“Don’t think that we don’t know you are bluffing. If more than 200 million yuan is drawn from Yang’s Group, there will be a capital lack. If this news goes around, I believe many large companies in Donghai City are willing to see Yang’s Group go broke.”
As they spoke, they took up the contracts in front of them. There were some pens in front of them, but neither of them signed the contracts even if they said that they would do it.
Ha!
Looking at their funny reactions, Liu Feng sneered to say. “You are wrong. I will give you the money which is not drawn from Yang’s Group. Actually, I will buy the stakes of Yang’s Group to give you the money.”
“Who, who are you? How can you have so much money?”
“Young lad, don’t brag. You are only a little older than Yang Shiwen, aren’t you? I have never heard of a rich young man at your age in Donghai City.”
“Oh, you have much money. Then give us! Give us!”
The three shareholders began to yell at Liu Feng. They glared at Liu Feng fiercely. If eyes could kill a person, they would kill Liu Feng more than 100 times.
When these three people were yelling, Dai Raoer suddenly opened her mouth. “You three are really ignorant. This is Liu Feng, Mr. Liu. He is the substantial shareholder of Maya Venture Capital as well as the boss behind it. He also owns a rich club in La Liga. Besides, he is a friend of Princess Irene from the Spanie royal family. He just said that he could give you hundreds of million yuan to ask you to leave Yang’s Group. I think it is perfectly normal. Now, do you still doubt that?”
