Chapter 558:-for-tat

is still the one next to Zhao Zepeng, and after everyone was silent for a moment, he was finally the first to stand up.

"It seems that no one is going to compete for the position of acting chairman, so let me say a few words. ”

Everyone turned their attention to him.

Zhao Zepeng glanced at him with satisfaction and bowed slightly.

"First of all, I am self-aware of my limited level and am not able to lead a company like Cheng's Group.

I have my own company, and over the years, the scale is not as high as the market value of my shares in Cheng's Group, don't get me wrong.

I just wanted to recommend a person I had in mind as chairman. ”

Everyone turned their attention to Zhao Zepeng again, the so-called recommended and desired candidate, there is no doubt that it can only be Zhao Zepeng.

The man paused, and then said, "Secondly, I want to say something to Mrs. Cheng."

I'm not making this recommendation for you. Not even doubting your abilities.

It's just that you have not been involved in the operation and management of the Chengshi Group, especially in the last year, and you have even returned to your family.

Cheng's big ship has always survived on the cusp of the storm, with ups and downs, and I'm just worried that it will be difficult for you to become the helmsman of our big ship in a short period of time.

Personally, I think it would be more appropriate to let someone who is more familiar with the business and management model of the Group take over the position of Cheng Dong on an interim basis. ”

This sentence is actually the voice of all the neutral people present.

Although there are not many neutral people, most people have their own little ninety-nine.

However, if you think about it purely from a rational point of view, they do think so.

Ning Kezhu is said to have some ability, but firstly, she has never been involved in the management of the Cheng Group, and secondly, she has been a housewife for a long time.

This sudden parachute to be the chairman is not so reassuring.

Even emotionally speaking, these neutrals are actually inclined to let the Cheng family take over Cheng Guangnian's position.

But rather Zhu obviously can't do it, and Cheng Yu definitely can't do it, for the same reason, they have never been in contact with the management and operation of Cheng's Group.

And Cheng Guangle and Cheng Guangtian are simply not this material.

Even if he has a neutral attitude, he is more inclined to prevent Ning Kezhu from taking the position of acting chairman at this time.

Ning Kezhu listened to it, smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Come to think of it, this is also the common voice of everyone present."

Well, I understand everyone's concerns.

Although I am indeed not familiar with the group's business, I believe that with the help of the think tank, I should still be able to keep the big ship of Cheng's moving forward and speeding according to the established route.

As for myself, I will play more of a supervisory and coordinating role to prevent any disturbance in the personnel and affairs of the group during my husband's absence. ”

The man also smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, if this think tank really exists, I also believe that Mrs. Cheng can do a good job."

But now, the think tank is clearly unwilling to show its head, and Mrs. Cheng is unable to name the members of the think tank.

It's not that I doubt the existence of a think tank, it's just ......

It's hard to make everyone believe Mrs. Cheng's words.

After all, this is a large enterprise with a market value of hundreds of billions, and no matter how few shares we have, they are counted in billions.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Cheng, I can't believe you completely based on your words. ”

Ning Kezhu waved his hand and said, "Who do you want to recommend, you might as well say it directly." ”

"What I want to recommend is Mr. Zhao Zepeng and Mr. Zhao next to me.

Mr. Zhao has been the second largest shareholder of the group for a long time, and Mr. Zhao has been personally involved in the affairs of the group, and has basically been sitting in the headquarters for many years.

I believe that if Cheng Dong really has a think tank, then Mr. Zhao will definitely be the core member of this think tank.

However, it seems that I think Mr. Zhao does not know the existence of this think tank, which is a little strange.

Of course, this is not important, the important thing is that I think that with the current situation of the group, whether it is from the number of shares, or from the familiarity with the group, or personal ability, Mr. Zhao can lead everyone, so that our wealth will not suffer losses due to Cheng Dong's accident. ”

After that, this person spread out his hands and looked at Zhao Zepeng.

And the one on the other side of Zhao Zepeng also opened his mouth just right at this moment.

"I agree with Mr. Chen's recommendation, and I am willing to recommend Mr. Zhao. Oh, Mrs. Cheng, I'm not targeting you, and I don't think you're incompetent, I just think that Mr. Zhao is more suitable as our leader in the next stage. ”

This person said with an expressionless face, and it seemed that he didn't intend to be close to Ning Kezhutao.

At this time, one of the old courtiers said: "Mr. Zhao is indeed a good candidate, over the years, Mr. Zhao has done for our group, I believe everyone is also in the eyes."

However, over the years of our group, to be honest, it is not only difficult for outsiders to understand, but also for many people within us.

After all, Cheng Dong has always been a man of his word, basically all of us are in our own places, and there is not much sense of participation in decision-making and policy.

Of course, Mr. Zhao's ability is quite strong, but compared with Cheng Dong, he is still a little less forward-looking in the overall planning of our Cheng Group.

I'm not against Mr. Zhao being the acting chairman, but I personally think it's better for Mrs. Cheng to take over.

It is true that Mrs. Cheng has not been involved in the management and operation of the group, but she is the wife of Cheng Dong after all, and I believe that Mrs. Cheng knows the best about the group's future planning.

In the management of the company, there are us here, and there is no problem.

You don't always feel like you're in your own position, right?

Cheng Dong is here, what should we do, Cheng Dong is not here now, everyone just continues.

Our company's current business cannot be digested within a year.

At present, there are not too many decision-making matters to be handled, and Mrs. Cheng is familiar with the relevant government departments involved in these businesses, and she should be more handy than others in handling these relationships.

Oh, by the way, it's the first time I've heard about the think tank, but I'm sure Mrs. Cheng wouldn't play such a joke on us at such a moment.

At this time, it is true that no one admits to being part of a think tank, but do you think that Mrs. Cheng will not be able to say anything?"

I have to say that although the old courtier's idea is conservative, it is also a good solution for a certain period of time.

"Mr. Tu, having said that, Mrs. Cheng also said just now, Cheng Dong is likely to not be able to wake up for a long time. Although our current business can't be handled in a year, what about a year from now?"

"Haha, Mr. Li, a year later, do you think Mrs. Cheng won't be able to control the overall situation after a year?"

"I ......" Mr. Li was stunned for a moment, he realized that he had fallen into the rhythm of Mr. Tu's negotiation, so he had to shut up.

Everyone was silent, and Zhao Zepeng saw it and knew that he had to speak.

"What Mr. Tu said is good, but your starting point is too conservative, and it is completely an idea of waiting for Cheng Dong's return.

If there is a consensus on the hospital that Cheng Dong will be able to come back within a year, even if it is two or three years later, I will also agree with your statement.

Cheng Dong is the backbone of our Cheng Group.

But the problem now is that Mrs. Cheng also said that there is not even a statement about Cheng Dong's condition now, which is ......"

"Haha, Mr. Zhao, in fact, we are all ignoring one of the biggest problems now.

If it weren't for the fact that the hospital didn't have a clear statement about Cheng Dong's condition now, in fact, there would be no need to hold our meeting today.

After all, Mr. Cheng is the controlling shareholder of our group, and it is precisely because of his uncertain illness that Mrs. Cheng cannot obtain the control of the shares under Mr. Cheng's name so quickly.

Once the hospital has a clear opinion, it only needs to go through some normal procedures, and after Mrs. Cheng gets the shares, no matter how enthusiastic our discussion is, it is meaningless.

With only the shares in her hands, she can directly become the new chairman of our board of directors, and she can also directly decide the ownership of the chairman's position.

So in my opinion, in order to avoid a new shock in the near future, the board of directors will cause a new shock, it is better to directly let Mrs. Cheng act as the chairman first, and after the hospital is diagnosed, the word "agent" can be removed. ”

"Lao Wang, are you cursing Cheng Dong for not waking up?"

At that time, someone immediately stood up and pointed at Lao Wang to make trouble, and even a polite title no longer existed.

Lao Wang didn't bother to bother with that person, smiled coldly, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Ning Kezhu spoke again: "Okay, don't quarrel about Guangnian's affairs again." Mr. Zhao, just now two people recommended you to take the position of temporary chairman, I don't know what you think?"

This time, all the balls were lifted to Zhao Zepeng's feet.

Yes, no matter how lively the argument is, it can't match Zhao Zepeng's own ideas.

He is now the second largest shareholder, and in the case that Cheng Guangnian's shares cannot play a role in voting for the time being, he has the support of the "Four King Kongs", and whether he wants to compete for this position is the key.

"Alas, in fact, to be honest, I shouldn't have come out to fight for anything at this time, and I am also saddened by Cheng Dong's matter.

However, for the sake of the group's future, I am also the second largest shareholder of the group.

At this time, I think I should stand up and guard our Cheng Group for everyone, and also take care of Cheng Dong who is sick.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Cheng, but I think I'm really going to compete with you. ”

said it very tactfully, but Zhao Zepeng's thoughts were still clearly expressed.

Moreover, the expression on his face that was neither yin nor yang somewhat exposed what he was thinking.

That's right, once the hospital is diagnosed, Ning Kezhu can indeed forcibly push himself to the position of chairman by manipulating the shares in Cheng Guangnian's name.

But not now!

Zhao Zepeng is confident that as long as he gives himself half a year to a year, unless Cheng Guangnian comes back by himself, no one can threaten his position as chairman.

And, as long as he sits in the position of acting chairman, a lot of things will change.

Business competition is so cruel, and internal competition is even more cruel.

This is the most real reason why he said sorry to Ning Kezhu.

Ning Kezhu nodded and said, "Don't be sorry, it's all for the good of the group." ”

Zhao Zepeng no longer pretended to be round, nodded, looked around the audience, and asked in a deep voice: "So, now, only Mrs. Cheng and I are competing for the position of acting chairman, what about the others?

This sentence is obviously not really asking for everyone's opinion, but to warn others, I don't want anyone to come out again, unless, you want to be my enemy.

Even those old courtiers would never come out to touch Zhao Zepeng's moldy head at this time.

The most important thing is that even if someone forcibly jumps out, it is meaningless, Zhao Zepeng has too many shares.

"No, do you want to give everyone ten minutes, adjourn the meeting for a while, and think about it?"

Zhao Zepeng waited for two minutes and continued to ask gloomily.

He's so aggressive, and no one will stand up.

However, Zhao Zepeng's move pushed many originally neutral shareholders to Ning Kezhu's side.

But Zhao Zepeng didn't care.

"Mrs. Cheng, why don't we adjourn the meeting for ten minutes and give everyone some time to think about it. This is not appropriate for no one to stand up and no one to give up. ”

Zhao Zepeng looked at Ning Kezhu and said with a smile.

Ning Kezhu looked at the entire conference room, nodded, and said, "It's okay, let's take a rest." It's ......," she looked up at her watch, "eleven twelve, and we'll continue our meeting at half past eleven." Strive to end the meeting before 12 o'clock, and save everyone's lunch time. ”

After speaking, Ning Kezhu stood up and took the lead to leave the conference room.

The situation is actually very clear, the only competitors are Ning Kezhu and Zhao Zepeng, and even if the others are still a little impatient, under the support of Ning Kezhu's old courtiers, he has already retreated by more than half.

And when Zhao Zepeng showed an inevitable posture, the rest of the people also completely died down.

There's no competition.

Ning Kezhu owns Cheng Yu's shares, and although Du Changfeng did not send a representative, everyone believes that as long as Ning Kezhu makes a phone call, he will clearly vote for Ning Kezhu.

Coupled with those old courtiers, Ning Zhu's support rate of more than 15% is definitely not a problem.

If there is no Zhao Zepeng, others may still have a competition.

But Zhao Zepeng is so aggressive that there is no other explanation than to show that he actually holds more than 25 percent of the shares.

In such a situation, most people don't even understand why Ning Zhuzhu is still dying.

Could it be that she really has the support of a so-called think tank?

But even if the think tank really exists, how can they change the current situation?

However, this is always something that will be known after ten minutes, and most people go back to their offices after walking out of the conference room and call privately to inquire about the news.

Ning Kezhu went to the pantry next to the conference room, poured himself a cup of coffee, and when he turned around, he saw Cheng Guangtian's family of three.

"Sister-in-law, the situation is not good. Cheng Guangtian stepped forward.

Ning Kezhu smiled slightly, and handed the coffee in his hand that he hadn't had time to drink to Cheng Guangtian: "Drink some coffee, don't worry." ”

"Sister-in-law, is there really a think tank?"

"That's what your eldest brother told me, and this is the only way he gave me to deal with the chaos before he had an accident. ”

"Big brother is really, since there is such a think tank arrangement, why don't you just leave a statement on the lawyer's side? Wouldn't it be okay to authorize the shares directly to you? Zhao Zepeng can't jump. ”

Ning Kezhu turned around and poured himself another cup of coffee, shook his head, and said, "Your eldest brother has his own thoughts, and I don't know much about what he has been thinking in his head over the years. Since he arranged it this way, there must be a reason for him. ”

Cheng Guangtian was speechless, drank half a cup of coffee in one gulp, and almost choked.

After coughing dryly, Cheng Guangcai said, "Then I hope those think tank members can turn things around." Alas, to be honest, sister-in-law, I'm really not optimistic. Zhao Zepeng is too aggressive, he is simply arrogant, isn't he supported by the majority of shareholders?"

"I'm still saying that, if everything is based on shares, that's what I want. Because your eldest brother told me that even if he is no longer in the group, in terms of shares, I will still get the support of the majority of shares. ”

"But how can this be supported, the four King Kongs plus Zhao Zepeng, 24.6 percent, just a few executives fell over, and more than half of them. ”

"I don't know......" Ning Kezhu shook his head a little tiredly, "but I believe your eldest brother's words." ”

Cheng Guangtian nodded dejectedly and said, "Okay, I hope the eldest brother has really arranged everything." ”

............

After Zhao Zepeng walked out of the conference room, he also walked quickly towards his office.

The Four King Kongs wanted to follow him into the office, but he politely asked him out.

"I still have some business to take care of, so don't worry. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Zepeng's mobile phone rang just right, and the four of them looked at each other, nodded and left.

Zhao Zepeng took out his mobile phone and said, "Hey." ”

............

The two of them, who were about to meet each other, seemed very calm, and Zhao Zepeng did not show the aggressive attitude just now.

But other shareholders and executives can't be as calm as the two, they either get together in groups or find a space alone, carefully thinking about how to deal with themselves next.

Fifteen minutes passed in a flash, and Ning Kezhu was the first to walk into the conference room again, still sitting in the previous position.

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Fu also walked in and sat down behind Ning Kezhu with an expressionless face.

After a while, everyone was back in the conference room.

Everyone sat in their respective positions before, but the atmosphere was more solemn than before.

"In order to end this meeting as soon as possible, I don't want to delay everyone's time too much. Now let me ask again, apart from me and Mrs. Cheng, is there anyone else who wants to compete for the position of acting chairman?"

Without waiting for Ning Kezhu to speak, Zhao Zepeng opened his mouth first.

Everyone understands that he is stealing the dominance, and it is also a manifestation that he can't wait.

No one said a word.

"What does it mean not to speak? Give up, squeak!" Zhao Zepeng said a little impatiently.

The four King Kongs beside him immediately jumped out and said that they had given up.

In desperation, others could only express their positions.

Seeing this, Ning Kezhu slowly spoke: "Since everyone has chosen to give up, only me and Mr. Zhao are left." So let me ask, do we decide who will be chosen by the number of people, or will we decide by the number of shares?"

Everyone looked at Zhao Zepeng, but they all had the same thought in their hearts.

Zhao Zepeng is not a fool, he now has an absolute advantage, how can he vote according to the number of people? Isn't that making trouble for himself?

"Of course, it's decided by shares. Zhao Zepeng also completely tore off the last camouflage and said sharply.

Ning Kezhu nodded and said, "Okay, now, please support Mr. Zhao......"

Before he could finish speaking, there was a knock on the door of the conference room.

Ning Kezhu stopped and shouted, "Come in." ”

The door opened, and a familiar face appeared outside the conference room door.

This is one of the group's legal advisers and the head of that legal counsel team.

"I'm sorry, I rushed over as soon as I got the news, but it was still a little late. ”
