They ostracized Jiang Minghua. She was so angry that her face turned red. She took out her phone to ask security here to remove her unwanted guests. Wu Rui stopped her. âThird Young Miss, First Young Master is also a major shareholder of the company. Itâs not appropriate to kick them out. They must be here today for some reason.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jiang Minghua trusted Wu Rui. She hung up when she heard his words and gave Wu Rui an order.
âIf this piece of trash, Jiang Jingchen, makes trouble here and mess up my plans, get security here to remove them immediately!â
Wu Rui kept quiet, and Mr. Wang looked at him in confusion.
Wu Rui looked back at him calmly.
Mr. Wang frowned. He felt that something was amiss, but he couldnât put his finger on it.
When the other shareholder directors arrived, they didnât greet Jiang Minghua. Instead, they went to greet Jiang Jingchen.
They ignored Jiang Minghua, who was supposed to chair the meeting, and made it really awkward.
Yang Hao and Wen Sang were outsiders so they didnât join the board meeting and drank tea outside instead.
When Jiang Minghua walked into the conference room, she took the seat at the head of the table. Jiang Jingchen did not compete with her and sat across from her instead.
âPd like to call this meeting to order,â Wu Rui announced.
The meeting began with the usual agenda: discussions around recent issues and plans for the next quarter. Different department heads then came in to update everyone about their plans.
When decisions were required, Jiang Minghua would usually nod her head and then they would move on to the next item.
But today, after Jiang Minghua nodded, Director Zhao, who often opposed Jiang Minghua, spoke.
âThe new chairman hasnât decided yet, so we canât move on.â
Jiang Minghua found it ridiculous. âWhat new chairman? Iâm the acting chairperson. Are you having a senior moment?â
Director Zhao said, âThe chairman of the board is usually the biggest shareholder of the company. Third Young Miss, your father only has 27% of the shares, and our new chairman has 36%. Therefore, the new chairman has the final say.â
Jiang Minghuaâs face fell. She turned her head to look at Wu Rui, who looked back at her like he was also confused about what was happening.
She then looked at her fatherâs assistant, Mr. Wang, who was also at a loss.
In any case, he was just an assistant. He probably didnât know much about the companyâs shareholding percentages.
Jiang Minghua said with a chuckle, âOld Zhao, would you dare to say that to my fatherâs face?â
Old Zhao replied, âOf course. You donât need to get nervous. Your father should be here any minute now. Itâs time for your father to know about todayâs happy occasion.â
Just as Old Zhao finished speaking, the door to the conference room was pushed open. It was Song Yan helping Jiang Xing in.
Jiang Minghua quickly got up and asked Jiang Xing to take her seat.
âDad, whatâs going on? When did Jiang Corporation have a new chairman? Why havenât I heard anything about it?â
âOf course, you wouldnât know, because even I donât know.â
Jiang Xing stared at Jiang Jingchen sitting across from him. âOi, Jiang Jingchen, what are you playing at?â
Jiang Jingchen leaned back in his chair casually and said in a lazy tone, âThis is not a game. The company will still be owned by the Jiang family, but my Jiang family.â
Jiang Minghua looked at him in shock. âWhat do you mean? You are the new chairman of the company? Thatâs impossible. You donât even have that many shares. Besides, what ability do you have to manage the company?â
Jiang Jingchen challenged Jiang Minghua, âWhy do I need to report my actions to you?â
Jiang Xing shouted coldly, âJiang Jingchen, donât forget that you are my son. Are you staging a rebellion here?â
Jiang Jingchenâs actions were akin to usurping the throne in ancient times!
Jiang Jingchen replied, âThis is not a rebellion. Itâs survival of the fittest!â âJiang Xing, since youâve lost, you should submit!â
Jiang Xing sneered. âJiang Jingchen, youâre a traitor. You played dirty tricks behind my back just to embarrass me, right?â
âBut let me tell you, I am your father. Itâs a fact that you canât change no matter how many tricks you play. When people hear about this, they will just consider you a traitor, Jiang Jingchen!â
Jiang Jingchen looked at him indifferently in silence.
Because this sort of argument was meaningless.
Song Yan, who was standing behind Jiang Xing, was also furious. She shouted, âJiang Jingchen, if you destroy Jiang Corporation, your mother will not be happy if she finds out from beyond the grave, rd advise you to stop now!â
At the mention of his mother, Jiang Jingchen took off his glasses and looked at Song Yan mockingly.
âYou were my motherâs best friend back then but you seem quite proud of your betrayal to my mother.â
Song Yan did not want to lose face in front of the directors, so she quickly explained, âWhat do you mean by betrayal to your mother? My husband and I were truly in love back then. It was your mother who threatened him with you and her money!â
Jiang Jingchen propped his chin and chuckled. He glanced at Song Zhou, who immediately took out a document and handed it to the shareholders.
âThis is my young masterâs share certificate. Have a look. He owns 36% of Jiang Corporationâs shares. Heâs the biggest shareholder here.â
The shareholders passed the document around, looked at it and nodded.
Most of them had already reached an agreement with Jiang Jingchen, and knew that Jiang Jingchen was going to take over as the chairman. Looking at this document now was just a formality.
Of course, there were also supporters of Jiang Xing in the room who didnât know anything about this. When they saw the share certificate, their eyes widened and they looked at Jiang Xing.
36% of the company shares was significant.
But Jiang Jingchen got them. Who said that he was useless?
They had clearly been played!
Jiang Xing was shocked too when he saw the share certificate with his own eyes.
He recalled how Jiang Jingchen had appeared weak to him in the past. It was all just an act to lower his guard.
âJiang Jingchen, how did you do it?â
Jiang Jingchen replied with a question, âYou expect me to tell you my secret? That wonât do.â
Jiang Jingchen glanced at Song Zhou again, who handed a stack of documents to the shareholders.
Jiang Xing checked the document. It was an application to change the company name.
âJiang Jingchen, this is nonsense. Why would you want to change the name of the company out of the blue?â
âBecause I feel like it!â Jiang Jingchen said.
Jiang Xing was fuming mad.
A terrifying feeling spread in his heart.
How did Jiang Jingchen quietly acquire the shares and then force him to transfer the shares that originally belonged to his mother to him?
Every move was calculated.
And Jiang Jingchenâs first move as the biggest shareholder was to change the name of the company. He was probably just trying to humiliate him!
âI disagree!â
Jiang Jingchen replied lazily, âI have the final say. Itâs pointless even if you disagree.â
Jiang Xing coughed violently. âYou b*stard, you changed the name of my company to some nonsensical Bei Yi. Youâre just trying to anger me to death!â Jiang Jingchenâs expression was calm as he retorted, âItâs wrong for a father to feed but not teach his child. Iâm what I am because of the sins youâve committed!â
â⦠Cough, cough, cough!â
Jiang Xing had another coughing fit. Song Yan quickly patted his back to calm him down.
Jiang Minghua was furious too. She yelled, âJiang Corporation is an established brand. Do you know how risky it is to suddenly change the company name, Jiang Jingchen? How can you be so ridiculous?â
The other shareholders were also hesitant.
Jiang Corporation was an established company, and the company name was its logo. A lot of things would be affected if the company name was changed.
However, Jiang Jingchen was adamant. âJiang Corporation was once run by the head of the Jiang family. I was once despised by the Jiang family. I need to tell the world that Iâve taken over the company.â
âThis is what the changing world is about. If you donât change yourself, others will change you.â
âThe company will be known as Bei Yi International from now on!â
âBeiâ as in Tang Beibei.
âYiâ as in Hao Yi.
He named the company after the two most important women in his life..
