Jiang Junlin tapped the table with his fingers. “The chairman of the Lu Corporation should be chosen based on both ability and character. Lu Shijie imprisoned a young girl and caused harm to human lives. He has poor moral character. Hualan Bank does not support his election as chairman.”
Ji Chi smiled, tilted his head back, took a sip of water, revealing a fragile yet alluring Adam’s apple.
Lu Shijie became furious. “Shareholders, Jiang Junlin’s sister, Gu Ci, and Lu Zhiyuan are dating. His vote is biased, and his words cannot be trusted.” “Whose vote is unbiased when it comes to interests? Isn’t that bias in itself?”
Jiang Junlin and Lu Shijie were of the same age, belonging to a group of wealthy second-generation individuals. They had established their own networks and helped each other, but Jiang Junlin had always looked down on Lu Shijie.
Jiang Junlin said, “Today is about electing the chairman, not engaging in empty talk. May 1 ask if you have any shares in the Lu Corporation?”
Lu Shijie froze. He only had some scattered stocks as a small shareholder. He held the title of shareholder, but he didn’t have much real power. Jiang Junlin mocked, “If you’re not a shareholder, why are you here in the meeting room, boasting?”
Everyone fell silent.
It was an extremely sharp question.
The shareholders remained silent.
Xu Tingting, dignified and smiling, said, “Mr. Jiang, my son is Lu Ze’s eldest son and has the right of inheritance. Due to legal disputes over the will, his voting rights are nullified, but his inheritance rights still remain.”
Lu Zhiyuan chuckled. “Then let’s vote. I also want to see who would choose Lu Shijie, a criminal outside the law.”
The words “criminal outside the law” stunned everyone.
Lu Shijie’s deeds were not a secret. Although they were suppressed and even recorded in the detention center, the shareholders who initially intended to vote for Lu Shijie were also hesitant.
They were caught in a dilemma. If they chose Lu Shijie, they would offend Lu Zhiyuan.
What good would come from Lu Zhiyuan’s rise to power and subsequent settlement?
Ji Chi smiled lightly and said, “Black Hawk is an ethical company that pays taxes legally. The boss is also kind-hearted and beautiful. However, he doesn’t dare to be a criminal outside the law. Since there are legal disputes and stains on Master Lu’s will, Black Hawk will not choose Lu Shijie.”
Lu Shijie was shocked and dumbfounded. He nervously looked at Chen Rushi and said, “Mr. Chen, you… you can’t break your promise. I am Lu Ze’s heir.”
Jiang Junlin couldn’t help but look at Ji Chi, a thought flashed through his mind, and he froze for a moment, looking at him incredulously.
Black Hawk… Had such great ambition?
Chen Rushi regretfully said, “Sorry, Eldest Young Master Lu, I’m sorry.”
Xu Tingting was furious. Although she glared at Chen Rushi, she didn’t dare to explode in anger.
Ji Chi stood up, opened his computer, and projected it onto the screen. “Among the shareholders of the Lu Corporation, there are six fund companies that collectively hold 12% of the shares. These six fund companies are all controlled by Black Hawk Group. With the 12% controlling stake, Black Hawk hopes to gain the support of all shareholders. Our Black Hawk Group will definitely bring generous returns to all shareholders.”
Lu Zhiyuan stared at Ji Chi, narrowing his eyes dangerously. The Third Master didn’t say that!
Ji Chi smiled and looked at Lu Zhiyuan, his eyes filled with laughter.
Third Young Master, Third Master has deceived you. Don’t look for the wrong person when you settle the accounts.
Lu Zhiyuan’s gaze grew dark. He didn’t expect that if Third Master succeeded in directly controlling the Lu Corporation through Black Hawk, he would lose in this shareholders’ meeting.
In a flash, Lu Zhiyuan had many thoughts. Directly controlling the Lu Corporation through Black Hawk was the best choice. He would still retain control, and no matter how much Third Master and he opposed each other, they would present a united front to the outside world.
But when he left home this morning, he confidently promised Gu Ci and Gu Ziyu that he would return victorious. If he lost, wouldn’t he be inferior to Third Master in Gu Ci’s heart?
Jiang Junlin sneered, “Black Hawk has such great ambition. Are they planning to control the Lu Corporation next?”
Ji Chi chuckled, “Mr. Jiang, don’t be too sensitive. This is just a normal business cooperation for mutual benefit.”
“I choose Lu Zhiyuan!” Jiang Junlin said calmly. “If Lu Zhiyuan becomes the chairman, Hualan Bank will support Lu Family’s loans and provide smooth sailing.”
Everyone fell silent.
Lu Zhiyuan remained speechless.
This guy, he’s rich and willful.
Even Lu Zhiyuan was surprised. Did Jiang Junlin have such a good impression of him? He was supporting him so blatantly without considering principles. He thought Jiang Junlin didn’t like him.
Ji Chi, with one hand resting on the conference table, had long and evenly proportioned fingers, clearly defined joints. It was a pair of beautiful and powerful hands. He leaned forward, towering over Lu Zhiyuan while lowering his voice, “Do you insist on opposing me?”
Jiang Junlin’s eyes held a smile. “Mr. Ji, this is just a normal business cooperation for mutual benefit.”
The two of them, standing and sitting, created a tense atmosphere as if they could start fighting at any moment.
Chen Rushi’s soft laughter broke the tension in the meeting room. “Hualan Bank supports Third Master, making it a total of 10%. Our Black Hawk Group has 12%. It depends on how the shareholders choose.”
Lawyer Yang was also nervous. As the secretary of the president’s office, he had distributed tablets to everyone except Lu Zhiyuan and Jiang Junlin. All the known six fund companies could vote anonymously.
The shareholders looked at each other, and Chen Rushi said, “Third Master’s Global Center has indeed developed well. However, there is a barrier between different industries. Our Black Hawk Group is the world’s largest investment company, with massive funds. The banks, fund companies, and investment companies we control are also vast, with an independent financial system. I believe we all agree on this point.”
In other words, Black Hawk was not lacking in money, had enormous funds, and in this world, those with money were the masters!
Lu Zhiyuan slowly said, “There is an old saying in China: ‘People of different tribes have different hearts.’ Black Hawk is an M country company that has assimilated and integrated countless financial assets. You have worked with my father for many years. If you really can’t bear to sacrifice your hard work, I have nothing more to say.”
Chen Rushi lightly smiled. “Third Master, in the business world, we only talk about interests, not emotions.”
“Your ancestors went abroad early and forgot your roots.” Lu Zhiyuan retorted in an imposing manner. “We Chinese are a society built on personal connections.”
Jiang Junlin and Ji Chi both held their tongues.
Third Master, you change your tune quite fast. I heard that you don’t talk about personal connections when confronting shareholders.
The shareholders whispered among themselves, and no one urged them. Lu Shijie still held on to his fantasy and campaigned for Black Hawk.
“Let’s all choose Black Hawk. They have strong capital and are our most powerful support.”
Jiang Junlin mocked, “Ignoring the lessons of the past.”
Lu Zhiyuan delivered the final blow. “Those words are completely wrong. He has never paid tribute to his ancestors, and my ancestors don’t recognize him.”
Lu Shijie’s face turned red with embarrassment. Chen Rushi chuckled softly as he watched the voting. He didn’t expect it to be so close. The votes had reached 25%. Some shareholders who had fallen out with Lu Zhiyuan were still determined to choose Lu Shijie. However, if they didn’t choose Lu Shijie, it meant they didn’t want Black Hawk to interfere with the Lu Corporation.
The voting became intense. Lu Zhiyuan had 26%, Black Hawk Group had 27%, and there was only one shareholder left who hadn’t made a choice. This one vote would determine the new chairman of the Lu Corporation..
