Jordan was famous now after the F1 competition.
Comnted as "the Bravest Racing Car Driver" by all kinds of dia and netizens, Jordan had received several advertisent offers but refused them.
He had no thoughts of being a star anymore.
There were many competitions all over the year. First, the G team beca more famous, and then the coach implented stricter training for racers.
Of this opportunity, Jordan returned to the Runestone Group and attended the board of directors eting as the shareholder.
Soon his schedule was known by the dia, which tracked him all the way.
They were prohibited from entering the gate of the Runestone Group.
It was still stressful and busy in the Runestone Group.
In the eting, Jordan was one of many attendees. Roy, William, Shirley, Lilith, Ruby, and Irish also attended the eting.
Other shareholders also gathered, and so even arrived.
The eting was very simple. One was for the No. 1 mine issue in South Africa, while the other was whether a new purchasing and financing power was needed.
Joseph and Jordan were the shareholders in their family, while other shares and Lakes' shares were divided among other shareholders.
The main share was still in the control of the Lakes.
Represented by William, so shareholders objected to Joseph's two proposals. They didn't agree to abolish the mine and objected to adjusting the structure. They thought that after Joseph took control of the company, the board mbers changed continuously, and the shares were scattered to different parts, which was unbeneficial for the company's operation. They even thought that Joseph planned to weaken the board of directors.
The atmosphere was quite stressful.
Roy didn't speak, while Ruby was also silent. Joseph still listened to their attacking and questioning, but Irish couldn't stand it, so she just stopped it.
"I agree with Joseph, and I support it." She expressed her opinions directly.
As she finished her words, Joseph looked at her with complicated expressions.
Other shareholders began discussing.
Irish was clear on Joseph's thoughts. He didn't intend to let her attend such a eting before.
She knew the eting ti through the Secretariat, and then she knocked on the door of Joseph's office, and the first word she said was, "Joseph, I want to attend the eting."
Joseph got up and shut the door, pulled her over, and said to her, "You can't get involved."
But Irish insisted and said, "I am also one of the shareholders. I want to attend that eting."
Joseph then hugged her and whispered, "Listen to ."
She stopped talking.
When the eting was held, she went there uninvited. And Joseph did not expect her to be so stubborn this ti, so he couldn't persuade her.
Irish thought so simply that she only wanted to support Joseph's decision because she believed in his profession. However, Runestone's developnt was enough to justify his decision.
From the rational analysis, she felt that Joseph was the best operator; from the perceptual analysis, he was her husband, and she wanted to support his decisions unconditionally.
Joseph was right to worry.
Because Irish's words caused the shareholder's resentnt to the greatest extent, the shareholder made Irish fully feel the pressure Joseph usually had on the inboard.
"Miss Irish, I understand you want to support your husband, but don't forget that this is the Runestone Group, and your father, not your husband, owns it. Furthermore, you are a mber of the Lake family, so you must maintain the Lake, not be preferential," said one old shareholder.
"What if I'm preferential? You can ask yourself, who is in charge of the company's entire operation? Who is most familiar with South African mines? Who risked his life going into the mine repeatedly? It's him, not the shareholders, here. You only take the money annually. When did you really care about the operation of the Runestone Group?" Irish's words were unkind.
The old shareholder was moved by what she said and patted the table. "Miss Irish, you can't say that. Without us, where would the Runestone Group co from? Will your family still be sitting here?"
"You…"
"Irish." Joseph interrupted Irish and signaled her not to argue.
Irish pressed her anger.
Joseph looked at Roy, "What do you think?"
All eyes were on Roy.
After thinking about it for a long ti, he looked at Joseph and said, "I can agree with the decision, but I don't agree with the acquisition."
"I thought it was clear to you about the stakes." He frowned slightly.
"Yes, but as the president of the Runestone Group, I have the right to defend the interests of the shareholders, especially senior shareholders," Roy said.
Joseph shook his head.
"I don't agree not only to finance but also to scrap the mines..." Ruby finally opened her mouth, "South Africa No. 1 mine was the first mine developed by my father, and it had his heart and soul in it. I don't agree to give that up."
Hearing that, Irish retorted, "You are a greenhouse flower. Have you seen South Africa's No. 1 mine? Do you know what's going on there? What are you doing now? You can only waste our father's efforts if you continue it!"
"Irish, you are Miss Lake, but how long have you co into contact with the Runestone Group? Unfortunately, in terms of seniority, you are not qualified to speak."
Irish squinted slightly, "Unfortunately, I have bigger shares than you."
Ruby's face changed, very embarrassed.
"I agree with my big brother's decision. My family also owns the Runestone Group, and you can't deny it, right?" Jordan kept silent for a few minutes, dressed in a suit, a simple t-shirt with a pair of old white jeans, chewing gum in his mouth, looking cold and obviously against the Lake family.
Jordan also specially brought the company's translator to make a better speech.
"Young man, don't make a fool of yourself by your last na." Another old shareholder spoke.
Jordan was just about to refute, but the shareholders next to him said, "Joseph has always decided after repeated consideration, so, on behalf of the new shareholders, I agreed to his decision."
"I... I agree." Lilith said very quietly. Shirley poked her, unhappy. "What are you talking about?"
"Mom, Dad..." Although Lilith was an insignificant shareholder, she never attended board etings, which should be the first ti she had been there since she got into the Runestone. She was a little stunned and a little nervous while listening to the argunts.
"Shareholders, I think...the majority's decision was right. We… we can't be complacent, and we all can see our manager's ability." The more she spoke, the more she was nervous because she looked at William's unhappy face.
"See? Even she can't help but co forward and speak in a fair." Jordan said with his body forward, "Old uncles, do not take advantage of your age, or you will dig your own tomb." Jordan said in French.
At the end of the sentence, the translator looked embarrassed.
"Translate to them." Jordan urged.
"It's... Isn't it good?" The translator hesitated.
"What did he say?" The old shareholders asked unpleasantly.
