"Model agency, what are you bringing me here for?" Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Siqi suspiciously. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Of course, I'm taking you to see the beautiful women. Xiao Siqi smiled.
"Wow, Dad, you're so chic, does my mom know that?" Xiao Yao squinted at Xiao Siqi and smiled very weirdly.
"Go, what do you want? Do you want to see your father's jokes?" Xiao Siqi nodded Xiao Yao, and then said with a serious face: "This is your mother, I mean your own mother, this is your mother's company." ”
"Oh. Xiao Yao nodded, remembering that his biological mother Chen Zilin's profession was a model, and later co-founded a modeling agency. Although he has never forgotten Chen Zilin, he has almost forgotten about the fact that she has opened a company. "But my own mother is no longer here, did you bring me here to remember her? But I don't remember when I was a child, the place is not right?"
"Of course, it's not here to remember. Your mother is one of the founders of this company and owns the shares of this company. After her death, of course, her position in the company was gone, but the shares did not disappear and I inherited them, so I am now the third largest boss of this company. Xiao Siqi said to Xiao Yao.
"Yo, Boss Xiao, disrespectful!" Xiao Yao said with a strange fist.
"It's easy to say," Xiao Siqi smiled proudly without a proper manner, and continued: "But I'm just the current Boss Xiao, you are the future Boss Xiao, let's be each other." ”
"What do you mean?" Xiao Yao asked.
"Your mother's stuff, of course, is left to you. Xiao Siqi said, "Because you are still underage, it is impossible to transfer the equity to you now, I will temporarily help you take charge for a few years, and when you are an adult, I will transfer the equity to you." ”
"Give it all to me, mom, you have a share." Xiao Yao didn't understand.
"Actually, I didn't have much interest in modeling agencies at all. It was your Uncle Zhang and Uncle Hong, the other two founders of your mother's company, who asked me to attend a year-end summary at the end of each year. Xiao Siqi said.
"It turned out that I was to participate in the company's year-end summary, but I am not yet an adult, what does it mean to bring me here this year?
"It's not that I will bring you here every year in the future, but this year I will bring you to recognize people, and I will not come in the future, but I will come in exchange for you. Xiao Siqi said.
"You're not kidding, I'm not an underage, you asked me to represent you to participate in the company's year-end summary?" Xiao Yao was surprised.
"Why not?" Xiao Siqi said, "Anyway, I don't know much about the modeling industry, and I don't need to express any opinions, just sit and listen to them, at most just look at the annual financial report or something, it's the same for everyone." When it comes to reading reports, I don't think I'm as good at math as you. Sister Xu told me that you made all the math problems when I was kissing. ”
"Don't do it!" Xiao Yao immediately refused sternly, "You are afraid of trouble, so you will push the trouble on me?"
"Help," Xiao Siqi said with his hands folded, "If it was nothing before, but this year I got married to Jiaying, I really don't want to come here again." ”
Xiao Siqi sighed, and then said: "This is your mother's company, your grandfather taught you the word "touch the scene, right? Didn't you ask me to let go of the past and enjoy the present and pursue the future?" I put your mother in my heart, but every time I come here, I think of your mother, turn your mother out of my memory, and remember the days I used to be with her." It was nothing before, but now that your father has Jiaying, Zilin and Jiaying rubbed together like this in their hearts, like a fight, it was very uncomfortable. ”
Looking at his father's expression, Xiao Yao felt that what he said was not unreasonable, and his heart was already a little loose, and he confirmed suspiciously: "You really don't need to speak, just look at the report?"
"Neither I nor you in the future have any position in the company and do not need to speak. Of course, we are major shareholders, and if you want to give your opinion, you are also qualified to do so. As for reading the financial statements, it is also a procedure, as a shareholder, the annual financial statements will be sent to you, but it doesn't matter if you don't read them. I still believe in the character of the two founders, and I used to just look at it casually to see if the company made a profit or a loss. Sometimes I don't even look at it, I just take the report and throw it aside. Anyway, our family is not short of that share of the dividend money now. Xiao Siqi hurriedly said.
"Well, if the two uncles don't have an opinion, then I'll come to run this trip for you every year in the future. Xiao Yao finally nodded in agreement.
Seeing that his son finally nodded in agreement, Xiao Siqi happily walked into the door of the company with Xiao Yao, but was extremely embarrassed and stopped by the company's front desk.
"Hello sir, is there anything wrong with the two of you?" the sister at the front desk politely stopped Xiao Siqi and his son and asked.
"Well, I'm here to attend the company's year-end summary meeting. Xiao Siqi said with a smile.
"Mr. Xiao, are you a shareholder of our company?" The sister at the front desk obviously knew Xiao Siqi, but she was very surprised by Xiao Siqi's answer. Only a few of the company's major shareholders and officers who hold shares in the company are eligible to attend the company's year-end summary meeting. She has been in the company for more than half a year, but she has never seen Xiao Siqi appear in the company, so she guesses that Xiao Siqi is a shareholder of the company.
Xiao Siqi nodded and said, "I come every year." You should have been in the company for less than a year, right? It doesn't matter, you can contact Mr. Zhang to confirm. We'll wait for you to confirm before we go in. With that, Xiao Siqi took Xiao Yao to the side and sat down on the waiting sofa.
"No way, I only come once a year, and many people in the company don't know me, and it's not the first time I've encountered this situation. After sitting down, Xiao Siqi said to Xiao Yao with a wry smile.
The two sat for a few minutes, and before the sister at the front desk came to invite them in, they saw a middle-aged man in his forties come out of it and greet them.
"Yo, why bother Mr. Zhang, you came to greet you in person. Xiao Siqi saw it, and took Xiao Yao up and said. The person who greeted him was the CEO of the modeling company and the company's largest shareholder, Zhang Yunxing.
"I just don't have anything to do at hand, so I'll come out and pick you up. Zhang Yunxing smiled and led the two of them to the company, and said with a smile as he walked: "Siqi, you have become more and more popular in the past two years, and I will also take this opportunity to stammer with you." He looked at Xiao Yao next to Xiao Siqi and said, "I brought my son this year, it's rare." ”
"Mr. Zhang is good!" Xiao Yao greeted politely.
"Uncle, don't shout with your father, he's scolding me. My mother and I have been good friends for many years, and when you couldn't walk, your mother carried you to the company to play, and I hugged you. Zhang Yunxing touched Xiao Yao's head and said with a kind smile, "I have nothing to do in the future to come to my uncle's place to play, there are so many beautiful big sisters here, and they have a lot of delicious food." ”
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Zhang. Xiao Yao nodded.
"It's still early to leave the meeting, do you want to take you around?" Zhang Yunxing asked Xiao Siqi.
"Wait a minute, there's something I'd like to talk to you about first, so why don't I go to your office first. Xiao Siqi said.
"It's rare, you, who are indifferent to the company, still have something to ask me for. Zhang Yunxing said with a smile, "Then I'll find someone to come over and take Xiao Yao to play first, and then let someone send him over after we finish talking." ”
"No need, what I'm going to talk about has something to do with my son, and Xiao Yao will go with me. Xiao Siqi hurriedly refused.
"Oh well. Zhang Yunxing was slightly surprised, but nodded and took the two to his office.
The three entered the office and closed the door. Xiao Siqi pondered how to open his mouth and inform Zhang Yunxing of this seemingly absurd decision. Zhang Yunxing saw that Xiao Siqi's face was a little hesitant, and said with a smile: "You can't always be because of the fact that your father and son are eating behind closed doors at the front door, right? Then you can't blame the little girl at our front desk, who let you only come once a year." It's only been more than half a year since people joined the company, so it's normal not to know you. ”
"Of course not, it's not the first time I've been stopped outside. Xiao Siqi smiled and continued: "But I don't think I will eat this closed-door soup in the future, I was about to tell you that I will not participate in the year-end summary meeting in the future." ”
"How can you do that? You are the third largest shareholder of the company, with 25% of the company's shares, how can you not participate in the year-end meeting?" Zhang Yunxing immediately objected.
"Anyway, I'm not familiar with the modeling industry, and I don't know much about the company's operations. Xiao Siqi smiled bitterly.
The year-end summary meeting is also a general meeting of shareholders, and you, as the third largest shareholder, must attend, even if you don't say anything. This is the rule we set when we first set up the company. Zhang Yunxing said solemnly.
"When this rule was set, the shareholder was still Zilin, and I had to participate because I inherited Zilin's equity. I'm just a formality, and I'm not going to break it. I'm not coming, but I'm going to find someone to do it for me. Xiao Siqi said.
"Agent?" Zhang Yunxing nodded, "It's not impossible. But you have to think about it. At the year-end summary meeting, your agent's words can represent 25% of the company's equity in the speech, which is not light, is enough to influence the company's decision-making, the agent you have to choose carefully, it doesn't matter if you don't speak, but you can't talk nonsense when the time comes, affecting the development of the company. Have you chosen a surrogate?"
"Selected. Xiao Siqi smiled and pointed at Xiao Yao, "It's him!"
"What, you're not kidding, are you?" Zhang Yunxing's eyes widened, "Xiao Yao is only eight years old, you let him represent you at the company's year-end summary meeting?"
"Yes," Xiao Siqi nodded, "Zilin's shares were actually originally left to Xiao Yao. It's just that he's not yet an adult, so I'm in charge for the time being. There's nothing wrong with letting him get acquainted with the company earlier. ”
"Nonsense, this is too early, right?" Zhang Yunxing said angrily.
When Xiao Yao heard this, he looked at Xiao Siqi and spread his hands with a smile, which means you see, it's useless for me to agree, but the boss doesn't agree.
Xiao Siqi was not in a hurry at all, but said with a smile: "Anyway, it's just an ornament, who is going to be the same?" Besides, don't look at Xiao Yao is only eight years old, but he is definitely different from ordinary eight-year-old children. Let's just look at the year-end financial statements, my son's current math level is better than mine, I don't believe you can try it on the spot. ”
Seeing Xiao Siqi's serious face, and then seeing Xiao Yao sitting on the side with an unusually calm look, Zhang Yunxing exhaled and said, "I think it's better to call Lao Hong over to discuss it and see what his opinion is." As he spoke, he went to the desk and pressed the call button on the phone and said to the secretary: "Xiao Li, you go and invite Vice President Hong to my office." ”
