Gu Zhaohan’s eyes were full of irony as he spoke, "Look, deep down, you have never really acknowledged . You think you graciously handed over the company, but don’t forget that it wasn’t a graceful abdication; you were ousted by the very officials you relied on. Do you still think you are the Gu Qichen whose commands were always followed without question?"
Gu Qichen retorted, "You’re too confident."
Gu Zhaohan turned his back, "Then let’s hold another shareholder vote. If they choose you, I will step down automatically."
Gu Qichen asked, "Do you think the shareholders’ eting is your playground?"
Gu Zhaohan laughed, "Right now, the whole Shengyuan is my playground. I can do whatever I want."
Gu Qichen watched Gu Zhaohan in silence.
That afternoon, Gu Zhaohan had gathered the shareholders.
To vote once again.
Although this was an unforeseen event, nearly everyone in the Shengyuan Building knew what was happening.
Even the dia had received the news.
They ca in droves, waiting outside the Shengyuan Building, expecting updates.
Everyone’s heart was hanging by a thread.
It was a matter that likely affected their fates.
In the last shareholders’ eting, Gu Qichen did not participate.
But this ti was a true head-to-head battle between the two n.
Xia Yangyang found out about this while at the TV station.
Xia Yangyang felt anxious.
Gu Qichen had only been gone for a morning, what on earth had happened?
Xia Yangyang was troubled.
It just so happened that she had previously been responsible for coordinating with Yao City.
Xia Yangyang had a pass that allowed her access to Shengyuan at any ti.
Xia Yangyang couldn’t even begin to imagine what Gu Qichen facing Gu Zhaohan would be like.
But in the end, she still took her credentials and went to Shengyuan Group.
A crowd of journalists had surrounded the entrance of Shengyuan.
The security guards had virtually ford a human wall around the entrance of Shengyuan.
Xia Yangyang, with her special pass, naturally had no obstacles.
Xia Yangyang made her way upstairs to the large eting room.
As the election was public,
even the doors of the eting room were wide open.
Many people were gathered at the entrance to the eting room.
The voting inside had concluded.
The results were about to be announced.
Secretary Wang displayed the vote count on the large screen behind him.
Xia Yangyang only heard Secretary Wang’s deep and calm voice, "Gu Qichen has been elected by unanimous vote; the board of directors has nominated Mr. Gu as the executive chairman of Shengyuan Group."
Two n faced each other in the eting room.
Seated on opposite sides of the conference table.
The other shareholders were seated in a row.
When the results were revealed, the eting room was unexpectedly silent.
But outside the eting room, it was as if a bomb had gone off.
"Good heavens, it’s a unanimous vote. Is our president finally coming back?"
"The previous shareholders’ eting must have been our president giving way to this young President Gu, but he really thought too highly of himself to expect a second occurrence."
"It’s clear that our President Gu held this election to humiliate Mr. Gu, but he ended up losing his wife and soldiers in the process."
Xia Yangyang stood at the entrance, frowning, equally silent.
Such an outco, in truth, did not surprise Xia Yangyang.
Gu Qichen had never been one to vie or compete.
Perhaps he had even paved the way for Gu Zhaohan in the shadows.
But now, with Gu Zhaohan clearly treating Shengyuan as a joke, Gu Qichen naturally could not leave him be any longer.
Gu Qichen had been with Shengyuan for so many years.
Taking back Shengyuan was but a matter of monts.
The room continued to be very quiet.
It was Gu Zhaohan who stood up first and approached Gu Qichen.
His expression was calm, and he showed neither haste nor unwillingness in the face of such an outco—a calmness that was sowhat extraordinary.
Gu Zhaohan spoke, "It seems that I have lost."
