Chapter 296: Take the opportunity to get out

Because the process of environmental protection rectification involves the use of multiple sub-items and a large amount of funds, on the one hand, in order to avoid suspicion, Ye Jiayi took the initiative to ask the shareholders of Changda Group to avoid, and in addition, the executives of Changda Group are wearing multiple hats, and they really can't find time to take care of environmental protection rectification, and other shareholders of the board of directors of Changda Holdings should shoulder this responsibility.

When the environmental protection rectification was first proposed, several shareholders other than Changda Group doubted two things: one is that the environmental protection rectification needs to spend a huge amount of money, and whether it is necessary? Second, the Changda Group leads the environmental protection rectification, and whether every capital expenditure during the period is transparent? After seeing the documents of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, the shareholders believe that the rectification is imperative, and now Ye Jiayi proposed that the shareholder representatives of the Changda Group take the initiative to avoid the implementation process, which further dispelled the doubts of other shareholders in the use of funds.

However, individual shareholders immediately came to their senses, and if Changda Group did not participate in it, this work would not have been carried out at all.

"Mr. Ye, Changda Group knows all the projects of Changda Holdings, and you are familiar with the relevant functional departments of the local government.

"Maybe I didn't make it clear just now, Changda Group is not a hands-off on environmental rectification, in terms of capital contribution, we are the same as all shareholders, according to the proportion of shareholdings, there will be no less. Ye Jiayi deliberately avoided the question.

"Mr. Ye, we are not only referring to the capital contribution, but also the specific implementation process, and you also have to participate, because other shareholders do not know anything about Changda Holdings' involvement in these projects, and they do not know how to deal with the relevant functional departments of the local government. If you don't participate, you can't do this. ”

I originally wanted to stay out of the matter and detach myself, but now it seems that this matter has to be managed, thinking of this, Ye Jiayi said: "Okay, on the specific implementation process of environmental protection rectification, it is planned to set up a leading group, and Changda Group can participate in it, but not as the team leader." In addition, after the meeting, Changda Holding Finance Company was instructed to pay close attention to financing in the secondary market and calculate the specific shareholding ratio of each shareholder as the basis for the amount of capital contribution. ”

At the shareholders' meeting on the same day, a five-member leading group for environmental protection rectification was established, and Changda Group was headed by Xu Jianmin, the chief executive officer, as a member of the group, and decided to hire Ye Jia and Guan Yuntian as consultants.

The financial department of Changda Holdings, a listed company, carried out a new verification of the equity of each shareholder unit while carrying out secondary market financing, which was relatively simple, and the results came out after two or three days.

Seeing the latest shareholder shareholding ratio, Ye Jiayi smiled. It turned out that according to Guan Yuntian's meaning, Lao Ding has been reducing the equity ratio of each shareholder of Changda Group in a planned way through the secondary market, and now, the total equity of Changda Group holding Changda Holdings has retreated to the second place, from the original 45% to less than 15% now, which is nearly five percentage points lower than the first place!

The reason why Ye Jiayi is happy with the latest shareholding ratio is, first of all, Changda Group's plan to break away from the traditional manufacturing industry, has been basically realized, so far, all shareholders of the entire Changda Group, holding less than 15% of the equity of listed companies, of which Guan Yuntian holds the most shares, only 5%, and the rest of the shareholders together are less than 10%, specific to several executives, Ye Jiayi holds the most shares, and only less than 1%.

Taking this opportunity, Ye Jiayi wanted Changda Group to give up the position of the largest shareholder, and she naturally resigned as the chairman of the listed company, so as to take the opportunity to get out.

To this end, Ye Jiayi convened a board meeting again, the sole purpose of which was to re-elect the board of directors of Changda Holdings, a listed company, and she opened the door

Jianshan said: "The funds needed for environmental protection rectification, the financial department is in full swing in the secondary market, and today's meeting has nothing to do with funds, and the main topic is to re-elect the company's board of directors." ”

"Mr. Ye, the environmental protection rectification is about to begin, why did you suddenly think of re-electing the board of directors?" several shareholders were very puzzled.

"It's not a whim, it's that according to the company's articles of association, when there is a change in shareholding, the board of directors must be re-elected. Two days ago, the finance department reported to me that the shareholding structure of Changda Holdings has changed, and now Changda Group is no longer the largest shareholder of the listed company. Ye Jiayi said.

"Oh, who is the largest shareholder of Changda Holdings now?"

"An institutional investor ---- Fengyuan Mining Company, and their shareholding ratio has accounted for 20 percent, while Changda Group's equity has accounted for less than 15 percent. In order to fully reflect the relationship between power and duty in the board of directors of listed companies, the board of directors must be re-elected. Ye Jiayi said.

In fact, Fengyuan Mining has been the second largest shareholder of Changda Holdings, but in recent times, Changda Group has been reducing its holdings in a planned manner, while Fengyuan Mining is increasing its holdings, but they don't know each other, but this in and out, resulting in Changda Group and Fengyuan Mining Company in Changda Holdings' position is just swapped, this re-election of the board of directors, is only the increase or decrease of the number of members of these two companies in the board of directors.

Ye Jiayi reported the situation to the board members, and she continued: "According to the company's articles of association, Changda Group will reduce one board member, and Fengyuan Mining Company, as the largest shareholder, will increase their membership on the board of directors, and accordingly, Fengyuan Mining Company will be the new chairman of the board." ”

In fact, the re-election of the board of directors only involves the two shareholder units of Changda Group and Fengyuan Mining Company, and has nothing to do with other shareholders at all. After the re-election of the board of directors of Changda Holdings, Changda Group has only three board members, while the members of Fengyuan Mining Company have increased to four.

At the meeting, Ye Jiayi suggested that the leader of the environmental protection rectification leading group to be carried out should be a member of the board of directors of Fengyuan Mining Company.

Speaking of this Fengyuan mining company, engaged in the mining industry for more than ten years, in recent years, also because the industry safety standards are getting higher and higher, mining costs remain high, their boss Duan and several confidants after discussion, made a decision three years ago to shrink the mining industry, ready to invest more than two billion funds in other industries.

After a long period of observation, this friend believes that Changda Holding Company has a stable performance, and its performance has been increasing unabated, and it is a listed company worth investing in, so it is recommended that Lao Duan gradually increase his shareholding in Changda Holdings.

As an institutional investor, Fengyuan Mining started from scratch two years ago and gradually increased its stake in Changda Holdings, until now it has become the largest shareholder.

Because of the stable performance of Changda Holdings, the income of holding shares in the past two years is generally better than the expectations of the old section of Fengyuan Mining Company, which has strengthened their confidence in becoming the owner of this listed company.

Unexpectedly, Lao Duan, who had just become the largest shareholder of Changda Holdings and would become the chairman of the board of directors according to the company's articles of association, was faced with the heavy responsibility of environmental protection rectification before taking office, which made him have many questions, after all, he was a layman, and Lao Duan wanted to find an insider to have an in-depth understanding of the industry involved in Changda Holdings.

Through the inquiry of the shareholder representative of the board of directors of Fengyuan Mining Company in Changda Holdings, Lao Duan knew who was the real insider.

At about nine o'clock in the morning of the third day, two guests were greeted outside the gate of Changda Building, and they explained their intention to the doorman, "We came from other provinces and want to visit Mr. Guan." ”

"Mr. Guan doesn't necessarily work here, you wait a minute, I'll call and ask. The doorman called the group company's office and learned that Guan Yuntian was in his office.

The two entered the welcome hall of Changda Building, and under the guidance of the staff, they went straight to the door of the chairman's office, and after knocking on the door, they quickly got a response of "please come in".

After entering the house, the younger guest who walked in front introduced himself: "Mr. Guan, we are from other provinces, this is our Mr. Duan, my surname is Wang." ”

Guan Yuntian stood up, shook hands with the two guests, invited the other party to sit down on the sofa next to the coffee table, he personally made tea for the guests, and then asked, "May I ask which unit the two bosses belong to?

"Mr. Guan, we are from Fengyuan Mining Company, although we have not met you, but on the board of directors of Changda Holding Company, we are familiar with Mr. Ye, as well as Lao Xue and Lao Xu. ”

"Oh, you're looking for Mr. Ye for the affairs of the listed company, right? She's in the big office on the west side, and I'll take you there. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Mr. Guan, we are not looking for Mr. Ye, we made a special trip to visit you today, but it has something to do with listed companies. Lao Duan said.

Guan Yuntian also sat next to the coffee table opposite the guest, "But I have no work relationship with the listed company, I don't know what happened to Mr. Duan?"

Lao Duan first introduced the situation of Fengyuan Mining Company and how to invest in Changda Holding Company on the stock market, "Unknowingly, I became the major shareholder of Changda Holding Company, because I was relatively unfamiliar with this line, I came to ask Mr. Guan for advice." ”

"Congratulations to Fengyuan Mining Company for becoming the largest shareholder of Changda Holdings! At the same time, I congratulate Mr. Duan on becoming the chairman of Changda Holdings!" Guan Yuntian had already learned about the re-election of the board of directors of Changda Holdings from Ye Jiayi, but he did not expect that the new chairman would come to visit him.

"Mr. Guan, we are in the mining industry, and we don't know anything about the production of tires and oil refining and petrochemicals. ”

"In fact, whether it is tire production, or oil refining and petrochemical, or self-provided power generation, there is no need to worry about the chairman of the board of directors in terms of production management. There's a set of routines, and you'll know when the time comes. "Guan Yuntian said.

"As Mr. Guan said, I don't have to worry about the daily management of the company, but now I am facing a problem, I really don't know how to deal with the environmental protection rectification that was just arranged some time ago. Some shareholders questioned whether Changda Holdings was not a local environmental protection pacesetter, and why did it face harsh environmental rectification?"

"Changda Holding Company is our single-handedly built up of the enterprise, of course we know all the links, the company is indeed the city's environmental protection model unit, if you have time, we send a car, pull you to the production site below to see for yourself, the environment is really good. Although the same problem also plagues us, however, the policy is cut off, the red-headed document is there, and if it is not implemented, or even not implemented in place, it will face serious consequences, and no one can bear the responsibility!"

This Lao Duan should fully understand that the mining industry he is engaged in is also because the safety standards are getting higher and higher, and he has been rectified year after year.
