Chapter 42: Board Confrontation-1

Beijing, East Third Ring Road, Lufthansa Bridge.

Ping An Financial Center Building is located in the northwest corner of Lufthansa Bridge. With a total construction area of 219,351 square meters, 176,860 square meters above ground, about 42,491 square meters underground, 24 floors above ground and 3 floors underground, and a building height of 147.5 meters, it is the tallest building in Lufthansa Sanyuanqiao business district. It consists of two international Grade A office buildings, a fashionable commercial center and a Westin Hotel.

Among them, Yuanfeng International Building (Block A) is the headquarters of Yuanfeng Group in Beijing.

At 9 a.m., a black Bentley Yahvee 728 drove into the underground parking lot of Yuanfeng International Building.

After parking the car in the No. 1 parking space dedicated to the chairman, first from the co-pilot's seat, a delicately dressed OL beauty stepped down, it was Su Jingyan.

She has long hair and a shawl, a purple trench coat jacket with a simple waist, and a rose-colored suit skirt inside, a black base layer, high-heeled boots, and a black briefcase bag.

At this time, the driver Daniel Zhang also opened the back seat door, and Ye Shikun got out of the car.

He wore a very formal dark blue three-piece suit today, with a blue and white polka dot tie, and a corner of blue and white striped pocket scarves on his chest.

In his first appearance after returning to the company, Ye Shikun naturally recuperated and was fully prepared.

Sun Wei and other vice presidents of several companies were already standing at the elevator entrance in front of the garage waiting.

"Mr. Xiaoye!"

"Xiaoye is always good ......"

There is no way, in the company, Ye Lanting is the "big Ye president", and Ye Shikun can only be the "Xiao Ye president".

The group walked into the elevator and went directly to the 22nd floor.

On the 22nd floor, the president's office and the vice presidents' offices are located.

After Ye Shikun left in the past two years, Yuanfeng has always been Ye Lanting as the chairman and CEO, and Ye Lanting's chairman's office is on the top floor.

The true owner of this level has not appeared for a long time.

Today, he's back.

"Xiao Ye is always good!" As soon as they got out of the elevator, all the staff of the president's office in the large open room stood on both sides of the corridor and greeted happily.

Ye Shikun smiled and nodded: "Hello everyone!"

turned around and arranged for Su Jingyan, who was following him: "Jingyan, you can take over the work here, and in half an hour, go to the board meeting with me." ”

Su Jingyan smiled and nodded, "Okay, Leo." ”

Ye Shikun said to several vice presidents: "Let's talk in my office first." ”

I opened the door and walked into the office where I had been absent for nearly two years.

Located in the northeast corner of the entire floor, this president's office is surrounded by huge floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides, providing excellent light and looking out to see the traffic on the main East Third Ring Road below, and the Liangmaqiao Diplomatic Residence and the Hilton Hotel opposite.

The office is about 200 square meters, and all the decorations have not changed from two years ago, which is very similar to Ye Shikun's own Xinsheng investment office in Shanghai.

Ye Shikun sat on the sofa, looked at the vice presidents in front of him, and said with a smile: "During the time I was away, I have worked hard for you." ”

"Mr. Xiaoye, don't work hard...... On behalf of all the employees of the company, I welcome you back!" The speaker was a middle-aged man in his 40s, who was the executive vice president of the company and was in charge of Zhang Xinhua.

Ye Shikun nodded with a smile, and his tone was very polite: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Like Uncle Chen, Zhang Xinhua is also an old man who has followed Ye Lanting for many years, and Ye Shikun has always respected him.

"Mr. Xiao Ye, today's board meeting is still arranged in the board office conference room on the 23rd floor, and the topic documents to be discussed have been printed, what do you think you have to order?" This is the company's vice president in charge of the company's administration and personnel, He Yongxin. A shrewd and capable woman. is 36 years old this year, and he can be regarded as Ye Shikun's person.

Ye Shikun nodded: "Okay, it's nothing, by the way, the directors have notified the time of today's meeting, is there anyone who can't attend?"

He Yongxin shook his head and said with a smile: "No, on the first day you returned to the company and held a board meeting, all 11 directors said that they would definitely attend." ”

Sun Wei opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Xiao Ye, look, after reading the board of directors for a while, do you also have a meeting with the management team, everyone misses you very much." Although Sun Wei has always called him "Kun Shao" in private, in the company, he still honestly calls "Mr. Xiao Ye" with everyone on formal occasions.

Ye Shikun thought about it, nodded and said: "It's okay, Mr. He will go and inform you, it will be set at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, let the directors of various departments in the headquarters at home, the heads of branches and subsidiaries have a meeting together, and meet with you, I also just want to hear the company's current situation report." ”

chatted with a few vice presidents, Ye Shikun also roughly grasped the mentality of these people, overall, he was still more welcome to his return, after all, everyone knew in their hearts that this position would be Ye Shikun's sooner or later, and when Ye Shikun was in power two years ago, everyone cooperated quite happily.

Su Jingyan pushed the door in: "Leo, it's almost time, and the directors have arrived." ”

She also followed Ye Shikun back to Yuanfeng and continued to serve as the assistant to the president.

However, after two years of unwavering follower of Ye Shikun, now that she has returned to Yuanfeng, Su Jingyan's status in the company is naturally not what it used to be.

No one dared to underestimate this Xiao Ye's confidants.

Ye Shikun got up with a smile and said to everyone: "Okay, I'll go to the board of directors first, and we'll talk later." ”

………………

At this time, in the conference room on the 23rd floor, on the leather chairs on both sides of a large conference table, the directors were already seated, chatting in a low voice.

"Dong Fang, what do you think about Xiao Ye's return this time?" Qi Zhongwei, the shareholder representative and director of ABC Huili Fund, asked an old man sitting next to him in a respectful tone.

This old man is thin, about 60 years old, with a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, slightly gray hair neatly combed, and an elegant temperament. He is the third largest shareholder of Yuanfeng Group (formerly), holding about 7.8% of the shares, the general manager and chairman of Shenzhen Huarong Trust Company, and the chairman of China Xincheng Insurance Group, Xiang Yang.

He and Ye Lanting have been friends for more than 30 years, and they are also a behind-the-scenes boss in the domestic financial field.

His investment industries cover energy, steel, pharmaceuticals and real estate...... and many other fields, Yuanfeng Group is just one of the countless industries he has invested in.

However, because of his status and shareholding ratio, although he rarely speaks out on the board of directors, he still has a lot of influence.

Xiang Yang smiled faintly: "Since Lao Ye let him come back, it means that the time is ripe." I don't have much to say. ”

Qi Zhongwei nodded and said with a smile: "Then I will follow your wishes." ”

The reason why ABC Huili Fund invested in Yuanfeng at the beginning was originally for Qi Xiangyang's face, so he basically had to look ahead.

On the other side, the three people who had appeared at the dinner where Liu Ke invited Ye Shikun, Liu Jianjun, Han Zhao, and Liu Qirui were sitting together and talking in a low voice.

Sitting at the bottom of them was a well-maintained middle-aged woman, whose face was changing at the moment, as if she was hesitating about something. She is Ye Lanjun, Ye Shikun's aunt. After Ye Shikun's second and third uncles withdrew from the board of directors, she was the fifth largest shareholder of Yuanfeng, a director of "Ye Yuan Equity Investment Partnership (Limited Partnership)".

In addition, the directors present also include Chen Bo (Chen Jingzhi), Luo Weilun (independent director, professor and doctoral supervisor of the College of Biology of China Agricultural University), Tang Jihong (independent director, senior accountant, certified public accountant, chief partner of Beijing Daxin Certified Public Accountants), Wu Hua (independent director, professor of finance at the University of International Business and Economics, doctoral supervisor), Ma Dehua (independent director, former deputy inspector of the Ministry of Agriculture, executive director of the Agricultural Development Promotion Association), etc.

The composition of the Board of Directors of Yuanfeng is as follows: a total of 11 directors, including 7 directors (shareholder representatives) and 4 independent directors.

As the largest shareholder, Ye Lanting has three board seats (Ye Lanting, Chen Jingzhi, Ye Shikun)

Now Ye Shikun has become the second largest shareholder with a shareholding ratio of 12% because of Ye Lanting's 10% shares, and naturally has a seat on the board.

The third largest shareholder, Xin'an Securities, holds 10.15% of the shares and has a board seat (Liu Qirui).

The fourth largest shareholder is Xiang Yang, who holds 7.8% of the shares. Have a board seat.

The fifth largest shareholder, ABC Huili Fund, holds 4.75% of the shares and has a board seat (Qi Zhongwei).

The sixth largest shareholder is the Ye family's family fund "Ye Yuan Equity Investment", which holds 4.5% of the shares and has a board seat (Ye Lanjun).

The seventh and eighth largest shareholders are Liu Jianjun and Han Zhao, respectively, with 4.3% and 3.5% respectively. Both are also directors.

The ninth largest shareholder, Quam Fund (2.97% owned by Liu Ke), and the tenth largest shareholder, China Rural Development Trust and Investment Corporation (2.4%), do not have a board seat because their shareholding does not reach 3%.

Ye Shikun walked into the conference room, came directly to the chairman's seat in the center, and sat down naturally.

He smiled at the directors on both sides and said, "Hello everyone, long time no see!"

"The chairman is not here today, and he has entrusted me to chair the board of directors on his behalf today. ”
