Early in the morning, Huaxin Company released an announcent, addressing recent concerns about whether to support Zhongwei Company. Huaxin Company decided it would not produce chips for Zhongwei.
The news caused an uproar as soon as it ca out.
There was an outcry online.
"What the hell, isn’t Huaxin Company a Huaxia company? Why are they doing this?"
"I can’t understand!"
"What is Huaxin doing? It’s disgusting!"
"Huaxin is forever blacklisted!"
"Not even helping their own people, heh."
The criticism against Huaxin Company spread like a tidal wave threatening to drown it.
AM.
The stock market opened.
Huaxin Company’s stock price plumted dramatically.
The headquarters of Huaxin Company, Chairman’s office.
Zhang Jing sat in his office chair, frowning and deep in thought.
Based on recent public opinion, he could already foresee that once the news got out, it would certainly draw criticism and affect the company’s stock price.
But this decision was not his alone; it was made after careful consideration by the company’s decision-makers.
It’s essentially irreversible now.
How to manage the next step in public relations in the face of negative opinions was Zhang Jing’s current headache because it involved a matter of principle, and no matter how it was explained, it was hard to recover.
After this battle, Huaxin Company must experience a long period of darkness.
Unless the company changes its decision to support Zhongwei.
But that’s impossible.
Zhang Jing himself would not agree either.
However, just as Zhang Jing was troubled by this matter, a shocking piece of news suddenly ca from within the company.
Just now.
The company’s share structure had unexpectedly changed; the original first and second largest shareholders had exited Huaxin.
The shares of these two major shareholders, totaling 30%, were transferred to one person.
Lin Fan!
When he learned that the person who had acquired 30% of Huaxin’s shares was nad Lin Fan, Zhang Jing jumped up from his seat.
Utterly shocked!
Lin Fan?
Heavens, could it be that Lin Fan he knows?
The young man who fiercely debated with him at Liu Tingshan’s birthday banquet last night and left him speechless?
How could it be?
How could this kid have acquired 30% of Huaxin’s shares overnight? How did he do it?
Subsequently, Zhang Jing received a notification from the board secretary, He Xini, that the company’s largest shareholder, Lin Fan, requested a shareholder eting, and all major shareholders of the company must attend.
The company’s largest shareholder, Lin Fan, was on his way to the company!
Zhang Jing couldn’t be sure at that mont if this Lin Fan, the company’s largest shareholder, was really the sa Lin Fan from last night.
If it really was that Lin Fan, why did he do this?
Was Lin Fan targeting him?
Was it because he offended Lin Fan last night?
At this thought, Zhang Jing broke out in a cold sweat. If Lin Fan bought 30% of Huaxin’s shares just because he didn’t see eye to eye with him last night, then Lin Fan was acting way too brashly.
More accurately, he was way too rich.
Who exactly is this Lin Fan, casually acquiring 30% of Huaxin’s shares, a billion-dollar astronomical figure?
Could Lin Fan casually put forth billions?
What’s more frightening is that money wasn’t even the biggest issue; the problem was that, ordinarily, even if Lin Fan had that much money, it should have been impossible to complete the acquisition of 30% of Huaxin’s shares overnight!
Just ask why the previous largest and second-largest shareholders were willing to transfer their shares to Lin Fan?
As far as he knew, the first and second-largest shareholders wouldn’t have done so; Huaxin Company is one of Huaxia’s leading chip companies, with enormous potential, currently valued at 500 billion. Who would turn away from such money?
Zhang Jing imdiately decided to contact the first and second-largest shareholders to find out if they really ceded their shares, and why.
However, Zhang Jing was unable to reach the representatives of the first and second-largest shareholders, only receiving a terse response.
"No more relations with Huaxin Company!"
Such a decisive statent!
No explanation, no attachnt.
It was as if these top two shareholders couldn’t wait to distance themselves from Huaxin.
Zhang Jing was left powerless, realizing it would be difficult to clear up his doubts for a while.
Now, he could only wait for Lin Fan to arrive and see the situation.
Zhang Jing personally went to the company entrance to welco Lin Fan.
AM.
A black Bentley ca to the front of Huaxin Company headquarters.
The first to get out of the car was Board Secretary He Xini; He Xini opened the rear door, and a simply dressed young man stepped out.
Zhang Jing’s face turned pale.
It was Lin Fan!
It really was that young Lin Fan from last night!
Oh my god, what he least wanted to happen had indeed happened; it was truly the Lin Fan he knew, who had acquired 30% of Huaxin’s shares and beco the company’s largest shareholder!
Lin Fan approached the company entrance and imdiately spotted Zhang Jing.
Lin Fan smiled slightly: "Chairman, we et again. I didn’t expect you’d leave in a hurry last night, and here we are eting again so soon."
Zhang Jing’s face was ashen. He struggled to calm himself and said, "Lin Fan, what are you doing?"
Lin Fan replied: "Oh, didn’t Old He notify you? I want to hold a board eting, Old He, did you notify him?"
He Xini quickly responded: "I did notify him."
He Xini wiped his cold sweat, thinking he had notified Zhang Jing while sitting in the sa car as Lin Fan. Lin Fan was clearly asking him deliberately, indicating there was so friction between Mr. Lin and Chairman Zhang Jing.
Lin Fan said: "That’s good. Chairman, get ready. We’re going to have a shareholder eting."
With that, Lin Fan ignored Zhang Jing and walked into the company entrance.
Zhang Jing was furious; Lin Fan had beco the largest shareholder, essentially putting him under. How could he tolerate this?
Moreover, he had a hunch that Lin Fan was hastily convening a shareholder eting for a reason, and certainly not for anything good. This guy!
This guy was aiming for him?
Zhang Jing changed his perspective, fearing that Lin Fan was not just coming for him but for the entire company.
He was not coming with good intentions!
Shareholder eting.
The shareholder representatives of Huaxin Company had all arrived.
The shareholders were all incredibly shocked by the change in the company’s shareholders; the original largest and second-largest shareholders had mysteriously disappeared.
Currently, the first shareholder had beco this unfamiliar young man nad Lin Fan.
Of course, although they hadn’t t Lin Fan, they had sowhat heard of him; Lin Fan had recently acquired Celestial Aviation, causing its market value to soar by 40 billion in three days, a sensation in the business world.
No one knew just how rich this Lin Fan was, who had been crazily spending money to buy, buy, buy—not luxury goods or cabbages, but acquiring companies and land!
For Lin Fan, buying companies and land seed as frequent as Auntie buying cabbages, as if he treated companies and land as if they were cabbages.
A wealth god!
Incredibly rich.
As the largest shareholder, Lin Fan took the chief seat at the shareholder eting. Glancing at everyone, Lin Fan slowly spoke: "I called everyone here today to announce a change in decision; I want the company to support Zhongwei and produce chips for them."
What?
Upon these words, all the shareholders’ expressions changed.
