345: Chapter 345 Fearfulness 345: Chapter 345 Fearfulness Wu Yu never expected that these Wu Family descendants would forsake their ancestors for their own benefits.
“Little nephew, since so many of your elders support , you shouldn’t go against the tide,” Wu Ke steadied himself.
As long as he had enough capital, he had the confidence to continue the eting.
“Just a minute ago, they were no longer mbers of the Wu Family.
Didn’t you hear that, uncle?” Wu Yu coldly retorted.
Everyone felt incredibly awkward upon hearing this; a minute ago, they had also beco “external” shareholders.
“Wu Yu, you allowed an outsider to hold so many shares of the Wu Family.
It seems you are conspiring with outsiders to seize power,” a shareholder said at this point.
Wu Yu glanced at Ye Shikai and smiled slightly.
“Mr.
Ye is my savior.
The first command I issued as the Family Head is to regard Mr.
Ye as you would ,” Wu Yu stated emphatically, each word striking at their hearts.
“Oh, sorry, I almost forgot, all of you here are no longer mbers of the Wu Family, so as the Family Head, of course, I can’t command you anymore,” Wu Yu said sarcastically, as if mocking himself as well.
Back when Wu Liang was in charge of the Wu Family, these people wouldn’t dare to be so presumptuous.
A tree falls, the monkeys scatter; it’s truly lantable.
Over these few days, Wu Yu had also matured a lot, understanding more of the intricacies of human relationships.
“Mr.
Wu, no matter what, it’s too early to conclude who will be the Chairman of Wu Group,” Lawyer Li quickly added seeing the situation.
“That’s right, everyone currently holds fifty percent of the shares, each on par with the other,” Ye Shikai said nonchalantly, with a cigar in his mouth, arrogantly smoking.
Although smoking wasn’t allowed in the eting room, no one present dared to stop him.
“I wonder who Mr.
Ye really is and what high position he holds,” Wu Ke, having recovered, curiously asked, facing this “heavyweight.” The situation was at a deadlock, the only breakthrough possibly lying with Ye Shikai.
Although it looked like he had good relations with Wu Yu, Wu Ke was confident in persuading him that there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
“I’m not any famous person.
I’m just a low-level white-collar worker under Tianya Group,” Ye Shikai stated, astonishing everyone.
How could a minor employee afford to buy so many shares worth billions?
It must be a joke; to everyone, Ye Shikai was pretending to be weak but was actually strong.
Moreover, Wu Ke was more startled by the words ‘Tianya Group.’ Wu Yu’s business partner, Su Qingyu, was the president of Tianya Group, and now another employee from Tianya Group appeared to support Wu Yu.
Could this be Su Qingyu’s backing?
Wu Ke thought it over, and it didn’t make sense.
Tianya Group had a market value of only a little over two billion; they couldn’t possibly make such a large investnt.
“How then did Mr.
Ye acquire the shares of the group?” Though filled with doubts, Wu Ke asked politely, his instincts telling him that he must not, and furthermore couldn’t afford to, offend this young man before him.
“What, I see that your group is doing well, bought so shares to enjoy so dividends.
What, is that illegal?” Ye Shikai spoke arrogantly as if he was about to spray the smoke directly into Wu Ke’s face if not for the distance, while the other descendants of the Wu Family dared not speak out.
These spineless characters could bully ordinary people but were terrified when facing soone with a strong backing.
“Uhm…
of course, it’s not illegal,” Wu Ke quickly replied with a smile.
“In that case, let’s continue with the eting.
I am quite busy and cannot afford to waste too much ti on this trivial matter,” Ye Shikai said impatiently.
The election eting for the Chairman of the Wu Group, in Ye Shikai’s words, had sohow been reduced to a trivial matter.
“Cough, cough, since uncle and I are at a deadlock, how about we take a two-hour break and then continue?
What do you all think?” Wu Yu said indifferently at this ti.
“I agree.”
“I agree.”
……..
“Mr.
Ye, what do you think?” Wu Yu asked with a slight smile.
“Ah, if not for giving face to my brother Wu here, I really wouldn’t want to waste ti on this.
Well then, let everyone disperse,” Ye Shikai waved his hand, looking very displeased, yet no one noticed the covert look Wu Yu sent to Ye Shikai.
As much as Wu Ke was unwilling, with the current deadlock, it was better to rest for a while.
Today had been too eventful, going from great joy to great sorrow, then from a desperate situation to a narrow escape, and now to a state of nervous uncertainty.
……..
In the lounge.
Ye Shikai and Wu Yu were lying on the sofa, discussing over coffee.
“Mr.
Ye, how is your injury?” Wu Yu asked with concern.
“It’s nothing serious.”
“Mr.
Ye, sotis even I am curious about you,” Wu Yu suddenly said with a smile.
“Oh, Mr.
Wu is curious about , what is there to be curious about?”
“The three major corporations in Hong Kong are balanced, which also stabilizes the business environnt in Hong Kong.
There aren’t many people in all of Huaxia who could swallow thirty percent of Wu Group shares in one gulp, so who exactly are you, Mr.
Ye?” Wu Yu’s words carried deep implications and strong curiosity too.
“I inherited my ancestor’s foresight when founding Wu Group.
They ensured that the external shareholder representatives were either the Family Head’s confidants or close friends to prevent internal betrayal.
Today, all these shares have ended up in Mr.
Ye’s hands alone.” Wu Yu thought to himself, feeling sowhat afraid.
He originally thought Tianya Group was of modest strength, but who knew that Su Qingyu’s mysterious “husband” was such a powerful individual.
If it weren’t for his favorable relations with Ye Shikai personally, the consequences might have been unimaginable.
Especially now, Ye Shikai has beco the second-largest shareholder of Wu Group, holding more shares than Wu Yu, the Family Head himself.
While talking, their expressions gradually beca serious.
Wu Yu, as a mber of a prominent family, couldn’t lack cunning and certainly couldn’t completely entrust his fate to soone else.
As much as he now trusted Ye Shikai, as long as that thirty percent of shares remained in the hands of an outsider, he wouldn’t be able to rest easy.
The profound capabilities of Ye Shikai not only frightened Wu Ke but also made Wu Yu wary.
“Ha ha, Mr.
Wu, let’s go back to discussing the eting,” Ye Shikai seeing the mood turning awkward, swiftly changed the topic.
“Hmm, if I’m not mistaken, Wu Ke is definitely doing frantic research on you right now,” Wu Yu said with a light smile.
“That’s for sure, but this is exactly the effect I wanted,” Ye Shikai finished his coffee in one gulp.
The most frightening thing is not a powerful enemy, but ignorance of the enemy.
