342: Chapter 342: Special Inheritance 342: Chapter 342: Special Inheritance Wu Yu’s gaze was sharp as he stared at the newcor, his teeth clenched tightly.
Indeed, this man was Wu Ke, the younger brother of Wu Liang and the uncle of Wu Zijian.
“Uncle finally arrived.” Wu Yu’s expression was solemn, and he did not stand up to shake hands, but simply said lightly.
“So my little nephew is here too.
Well, now that everyone is here, we can start the eting.” Wu Ke was holding a docunt in his hand, spoke indifferently, then stood up and smiled aningfully at Wu Yu, “Now that the Chairman is no longer here, you don’t mind if I take over the eting, do you?”
“Please, uncle.” Wu Yu made a gesture, indicating for Wu Ke to speak.
“Cough cough, I believe everyone knows why we are having this eting.
The consecutive deaths of two Family Heads are a huge loss for the company and the Wu Family.” Wu Ke feigned a sorrowful deanor, even shedding a few tears, while those around him comforted him, praising his loyalty.
“As the saying goes, a family cannot be without a head for a day.
During these days since Chairman Wu Zijian’s death, Wu Group’s stock prices have been plumting.
Therefore, I believe that a new Chairman must be chosen imdiately.” When Wu Ke got to this point, everyone perked up, having listened to so much nonsense, it finally got to the crux.
“As everyone present knows, the Wu Family has a deep foundation, and Wu Group is a well-known family business.
From the perspective of family succession, son follows father, and brother follows brother, Wu Yu should rightfully be the next Family Head, I support him.” As soon as Wu Ke’s words finished, there was a buzz of discussion amongst everyone present, whether it was people on the left or the right, even Wu Yu himself was sowhat shocked.
Wu Ke so readily acknowledged Wu Yu as the next Family Head, based on his stance, shouldn’t he be obstructing him by all ans?
This sudden agreent was suspicious; Wu Yu knew this wasn’t a sudden change of heart, which made Wu Yu even more nervous about the possibility of Wu Ke having another card up his sleeve.
“Since uncle said so, then I shall not shirk the role of Family Head.” Wu Yu said coldly, then silently stood up.
He would not refuse the position of Family Head, which rightfully belonged to him, blocking any attempts by Wu Ke to back out.
As for Wu Family’s younger generation on the right, they looked defeated like the dog of a bereaved family, they were also in disbelief about Wu Ke’s words, as Wu Yu becoming the Family Head ant their positions, power, and wealth were all but illusions.
“Very well, now that the position of Family Head is settled, I’ll move on to the next issue.” Wu Ke continued.
“Although Wu Group is a family business and ideally, the Chairman should be the Family Head, however,” Wu Ke paused, his voice dropping as he gave Wu Yu a sinister smile, “according to the law, the person who holds the majority of the shares is the Chairman, so I think the position of Chairman is still up for discussion.”
“Vice Chairman Wu, what do you an by that?
Wu Yu holds twenty percent of the shares, more than anyone else present here.
The position of Chairman rightfully belongs to him.” A man stood up next to Wu Yu, he was the HR director and a veteran at Wu Group, having worked there for over twenty years.
“Ha ha, I was just about to bring this up.” Wu Ke laughed loudly and gestured, “Lawyer Li, please co in.” As soon as he finished speaking, a man walked in from outside, taking a docunt out of his briefcase.
“Party A, the forr Chairman Mr.
Wu Zijian, in this docunt promised that in the case of an accidental death, all his shares, properties, bonds, cash, and other assets would unconditionally transfer to Party B, Mr.
Wu Ke.” Lawyer Li’s words had barely finished when everyone gasped in shock.
Wu Yu, taken aback, held back his anger.
How could Wu Zijian have been foolish enough to sign such a docunt?
anwhile, the Wu Family’s younger generation on the right secretly rejoiced; they finally understood Wu Ke’s intention.
As long as the Chairman’s position was secured, so were their positions.
“Ha ha, as everyone can see, the forr Chairman, Mr.
Wu Zijian’s shares have all been transferred to .
Together with my original fifteen percent, I now hold thirty-five percent.” Wu Ke laughed proudly, and Wu Yu internally cursed him countless tis.
This scoundrel first plotted against Wu Liang and then Wu Zijian.
Although Wu Zijian was a diocrity, he was greedy for power, and it would have been impossible for him to sign such a tyrannical clause unless, by signing this paper, he could gain greater benefits, such as…
The position of Family Head.
…
In fact, this docunt was precisely what Wu Ke coaxed and deceived Wu Zijian into signing that day, using the lure of becoming the Family Head.
At that ti, he promised to give Wu Ke five percent of the shares after everything was completed, but Wu Ke’s ambition was far greater than that.
At the end of this agreent, -*-
there was a clause stating that if Wu Zijian died, his shares and properties would be transferred to Wu Ke.
At that mont, his mind was so set on defeating Wu Yu that he did not thoroughly read the docunt.
From the beginning, Wu Ke’s target was never just that re five percent of shares; he intended to swallow up all of Wu Zijian’s shares, thereby becoming the person with the most shares and legitimately the Chairman.
“Lawyer Wang, is this docunt authentic?” Wu Yu’s face was icy cold as he spoke, and the lawyer next to him stood up, ticulously examining the docunt.
“Manager Wu, this is…
real.” Lawyer Wang stuttered after examining it, as Wu Group’s chief lawyer, he found it hard to believe, but he still told the truth.
It is easy to recognize a forgery, and since Wu Ke daringly displayed this “ace,” it must undoubtedly be genuine.
“How about that, my little nephew, you should have no objections now.” Wu Ke laughed proudly, having collaborated with the Tomb Spirit Organization to orchestrate the deaths of Wu Liang and Wu Zijian for their shares.
Wu Yu’s face darkened, now he finally understood why Wu Ke was so quick to acknowledge him as the Family Head.
Without control over Wu Group, the position of Family Head was rely symbolic, decorative, a puppet.
“Hold on, I have an objection,” Wu Yu shouted loudly, then abruptly stood up, addressing everyone firmly, “According to the family rules, during the company’s decision-making phase, the Family Head owns the decision-making rights of the 15% shares held by the Wu Family’s younger generation, which ans, I also have 35% of the decision-making power for this Chairman selection.”
“I now oppose Wu Ke assuming the position of Chairman,” Wu Yu loudly condemned.
