When you're out in the world, you rely on your abilities and your connections!
[Host suppressed Zhou Mu, rewarded with police force value +1000]
[Host suppressed Zhou Yuanbo, rewarded with police force value +500]
The System prompt in Zhou Cheng's mind.
Another 1500 points of police force value credited.
This came just in time; it's the perfect moment to spend it!
"Zhou Cheng! You are being too ridiculous! Look at how angry you've made Chairman Zhou!"
"I never expected Chairman Zhou to have a son like you!"
"This is unfilial!"
"This is the Group Board of Directors; put your feet down!"
"Chairman Zhou, although some things are your family business, I can't help but say it: this Zhou Cheng is absolutely not suitable for the Group. If he enters the Group in the future, I will leave immediately!"
"..."
Some executives pointed fingers at Zhou Cheng.
They were people recruited by Zhou Mu, and they never missed an opportunity to belittle and suppress Zhou Cheng in front of Zhou Yuanbo.
These people were incompetent and also liked to use their positions for personal gain.
During Zhou Feiyu's time, although he didn't severely purge them, he didn't promote them either.
But after Zhou Mu joined the Group, they finally made progress!
Therefore, they were firm supporters of Zhou Mu!
...
As for Zhou Mu, when Zhou Cheng drove him away, he didn't go far. Instead, he called for Zhuge Yun to rearrange the seating!
"Young Master Zhou Mu, I have seen through his intentions."
"He is deliberately causing trouble. He wants to stop you from becoming CEO by disrupting this meeting. So, Young Master Zhou Mu, what you just did was very correct!"
Zhuge Yun leaned into Zhou Mu's ear and said.
He appeared very confident.
"I have to say, his idea is quite good, very clever, but it still cannot escape the eyes of me, Zhuge Yun!"
"Therefore, the further we get into this, the less we can panic, and the less we can mess around with him. We are the ones about to win, so we must be even more composed!"
Zhou Mu heard Zhuge Yun's words and nodded slightly.
Although he was unwilling to accept it.
Although he was very unhappy watching Zhou Cheng with his feet on the conference table right now! But he also knew he had to stay steady!
"Father, it's fine. Since Second Young Master wants to sit there, let him sit. I'll just find a place to sit."
"Let's not delay the real business now."
Zhou Mu said, pretending to be reasonable.
These words made the furious Zhou Yuanbo snort coldly, and then he glared at Zhou Cheng!
He reprimanded him:
"Listen to what Xiao Mu said, and then look at yourself right now!"
Zhou Cheng: ...
Zhou Cheng couldn't be bothered to speak.
"Xiao Mu, come sit here." Zhou Yuanbo spoke again, calling Zhou Mu directly to sit on his left!
He made the row of people on his left move down one seat!
He Yubing witnessed Zhou Yuanbo's biased behavior the entire time!
Just a moment ago, when she was arguing with Zhuge Yun in the conference room, she merely asked Zhou Yuanbo to tell Zhou Cheng to switch to a normal chair, to a more important position, but he didn't agree!
Just a moment ago, when the Second Young Master was being led to that humiliating position, he also turned a blind eye and didn't speak up!
But now that it was Zhou Mu's turn, he spoke up directly, letting Zhou Mu sit next to him again!
How is this anything like a biological father!
Who could stand to watch such biased behavior!
He Yubing turned her head to look at Zhou Cheng. No wonder the Second Young Master had thoughts of slaughtering all his opponents.
It turned out that after Chairman Chen passed away, he had been subjected to such biased oppression at home.
Thinking of this, He Yubing felt a pang of heartache.
She became even more determined in her heart that she must protect Chairman Chen's Chenyang Group!
Even if Chairman Chen's children lost the CEO position this time, there would be opportunities in the future!
Zhou Cheng felt He Yubing's gaze.
He turned his head slightly and looked at He Yubing out of the corner of his eye.
He muttered in his heart.
Why is this He Yubing looking at me?
After his thorough investigation, she shouldn't be acting like a fangirl, right?
...
Zhou Cheng's feet remained on the conference table.
No one paid attention to Zhou Cheng anymore, and Zhou Cheng couldn't be bothered to pay attention to anyone else!
"Because of the resignation of the former CEO, Zhou Feiyu, the Group needs to select a new CEO. Regarding this, after careful consideration, I propose that the Group's General Manager, Zhou Mu, take on the position of Group CEO!"
"We will now begin the vote by show of hands."
The meeting reached a critical moment.
As Zhou Yuanbo's words fell, he took the lead and raised his hand!
Then, in the conference room, those who agreed with Zhou Mu taking the position also raised their hands!
They all knew that as long as Zhou Yuanbo agreed, and since Zhou Feiyu wouldn't go against Zhou Yuanbo's wishes, having them raise their hands was just going through the motions!
Zhou Cheng scanned the room and reminded He Yubing again to write down the people who raised their hands in her notebook!
He Yubing naturally knew that this was the best time to distinguish the factions.
She didn't delay for a moment and wrote down everyone who raised their hand!
After they had raised their hands.
Zhou Yuanbo quickly put his hand down, a slight smile appearing on his lips, obviously very satisfied with the result!
"Since the majority of the meeting agrees! Then I announce!"
"Wait!" Zhou Cheng spoke up, interrupting Zhou Yuanbo.
Everyone's gaze turned towards Zhou Cheng!
Zhou Yuanbo looked at Zhou Cheng with a face full of anger!
If it were Zhou Feiyu, he would probably immediately take back what he just said.
But Zhou Cheng is not Zhou Feiyu! He ignored everyone's gaze and said slowly: "I do not agree!"
"You! Zhou Cheng! What exactly do you want to do! I've already conceded so much just now, what else do you want!"
"What qualification do you have to disagree!"
At the stage of the imminent announcement, Zhou Mu could no longer hold it in!
He stood up and shouted at Zhou Cheng!
"At this point, the majority of the conference room has already agreed, don't make any more pointless objections!"
"Is that so? However, is having more people useful?"
"When you're out in the world, you rely on strength and you rely on your background!"
"What is your status? Oh? Just a little bastard!"
Zhou Cheng scolded him mercilessly!
According to the Group's shareholding structure, the largest shareholder on the surface right now is indeed Zhou Yuanbo; he owns 25% of the shares!
Coupled with the other directors with shares in the meeting raising their hands in agreement, there were indeed many people supporting Zhou Mu!
But the actual person in power should still be Zhou Feiyu.
Yet they all assumed that Zhou Feiyu would not disobey Zhou Yuanbo, assuming that as long as Zhou Yuanbo spoke, Zhou Feiyu, as a son, would not oppose him!
This is also where the loophole in many short dramas lies; they follow the rules of ruler and subject, father and son, follow the supremacy of emotion, and trap themselves within this framework.
But they forgot that power is the source of authority!
Zhou Feiyu is a short drama character; he doesn't understand, and he doesn't dare; he is within this framework.
But Zhou Cheng is not; he is well-versed in the Xuanwu Gate succession law, so he has no such qualms!
Zhou Cheng asked He Yubing to bring him the briefcase he had brought, then opened it and took out two documents.
"Assistant He, you read these two documents!" Zhou Cheng said in a calm tone!
This confident demeanor made even He Yubing calm down.
She took the documents from Zhou Cheng's hand, opened them, and read them. Her pupils suddenly widened, and she looked at Zhou Cheng in surprise!
"What are you stunned for? Read it out directly!" Zhou Cheng said.
Upon hearing this, He Yubing quickly put away her surprise!
"The first document is a share transfer agreement: Group shareholder Zhou Feiyu transfers all of the 12% of shares he personally holds to shareholder Zhou Cheng! Starting from the time the transfer agreement is officially announced, Zhou Cheng will personally hold 24% of the Group's shares!"
Everyone heard He Yubing's words! They were all shocked!
Eldest Young Master Zhou Feiyu actually gave all the shares he personally held to Second Young Master Zhou Cheng?!
In this way, Zhou Cheng immediately jumped to become the existence with the second-largest personal shareholding in the Group, just behind Zhou Yuanbo!
However, what shocked them the most was the second document!
"The second document is an equity transfer agreement! Group shareholder Zhou Feiyu transfers all of his equity, as well as the equity he holds on behalf of Zhou Cheng, Zhou Shurong, and Zhou Wanyu, to Zhou Cheng! Starting from the time the transfer agreement is announced! Zhou Cheng will hold 48% of the Group's equity!"
After He Yubing summarized the contents of the two documents!
The whole room was in an uproar!
Like an earthquake, everyone could no longer suppress their surprise!
However, this wasn't over yet!
The director representing the Chen family stood up!
