116: Chapter 116: Qianlong Enters the Realm of Longevity 116: Chapter 116: Qianlong Enters the Realm of Longevity Today’s Changsheng Group has an exceptionally tense atmosphere.

When the major shareholders entered the eting room, they could especially feel this unusual aura.

The shareholders of Changsheng Group are different from those of ordinary companies; all of them are senior executives.

If you’re not a senior executive, you don’t qualify for stock allocations and cannot beco a shareholder.

These people are certainly shrewd and are aware that today’s eting should not have been called.

Why?

The chairman’s third son had an accident yesterday and was cremated last night.

No matter what, the chairman should not be in the mood to hold a shareholder eting.

But he insisted on having it.

Such a eting is unfathomable.

It only lets people know that it’s out of the ordinary.

At nine o’clock, Li Changsheng entered the room, his face extrely somber.

As soon as the conference room door closed, the atmosphere was oppressively tense.

Li Changsheng waved his hand, allowing the second vice president, Li Heming, to preside over the eting.

Li Heming is also a shareholder.

His shares, transferred to him by Li Changsheng, make up 13%, just 0.5 percent more than Ding Lizhong’s 12.5%.

Together, the father and son control 51% of the shares, which determines Li Changsheng’s absolute control over Changsheng Group.

This also makes the shareholders’ eting indistinguishable from the board of directors’ eting.

He is the chairman of the board.

At the shareholders’ eting, he is the absolute major shareholder with more than half of the shares.

His will is the will of the company.

Opposition from anyone else is futile.

Li Heming spoke: “Changsheng Group has had too many issues recently, causing a significant drop in the company’s stock price on the new third board.

Ultimately, there are two major issues: first, the Alien Species Spider murder case has put the company in the spotlight and drawn skepticism from investors; second, Huang Chengwang’s infiltration by foreign forces and his escape to Fusang has almost completely collapsed the company’s scientific research front.

As a renowned dostic enterprise, our managent must be sound, and accountability must be enforced.

Today’s shareholders’ eting is a eting for accountability!”

All shareholders’ hearts skipped a beat…

Accountability!

Whose responsibility are they pursuing?

Ding Lizhong’s heart also jumped; he had foreseen that today’s shareholders’ eting was not going to be routine.

As it turned out, it was indeed not.

Li Heming’s opening remarks pointed to…

Under the gaze of all shareholders, Li Heming’s finger slowly lifted, pointing towards Ding Lizhong: “The Alien Species Spider murder case has drawn national attention, and the Alien Species Spider project was the main focus of Vice President Ding when he was the technical supervisor, so he cannot shirk the bla!

Huang Chengwang, moreover, was a talent that Vice President Ding personally recruited from the Southeast University.

Now that Huang Chengwang has fled, leaving behind such serious consequences, Vice President Ding, shouldn’t you take responsibility?”

In an instant, all eyes focused on Ding Lizhong.

Ding Lizhong slowly lifted his gaze and stared at Li Changsheng: “Chairman, are you holding accountable?”

He didn’t entangle with Li Heming; he faced Li Changsheng directly.

Finally, Li Changsheng spoke: “When we founded Changsheng Group, there were company articles of association!

Article 30 clearly stipulates that if a shareholder causes serious damage to the company due to their own fault, all shareholder rights are to be revoked, and the company’s losses are to be deducted from their share of profits.

Vice President Ding, have you forgotten this clause?”

The two giants of the company clashed face to face.

And the issue at hand was so significant.

Revocation of all shareholder rights.

Are they planning to kick Ding Lizhong out once and for all?

Furthermore, the losses incurred also deducted from the share earnings – how extensive are the losses from these two aspects?

The obvious loss is stock price fluctuation, that alone is astronomical, plus other implicit costs, such as wasted investnt in research, the total loss is incalculable…

If they really start to deduct, Ding Lizhong might well be ruined.

The situation had beco truly serious.

Ding Lizhong’s graying hair fluttered slightly: “Of course, I rember the company’s articles clearly, but Chairman, do not forget two points.

Firstly, the Alien Species Spider murder case has been cleared as unrelated to , and any adverse impact it has created cannot be attributed to .

Secondly, although Huang Chengwang was soone I brought in from Southeast University, my initial role for him was rely as a researcher.

It was you who enabled him to set up the second research departnt, with the intention of replacing .

Since his problem arose, the person responsible is not ; it is actually yourself!”

Li Changsheng coldly said: “Old Ding, this is not a university classroom; it’s not the place for you to argue your case.

Whose responsibility it is, all shareholders are clear as day.

Everyone, please express your thoughts!”

The second shareholder, the president of the company, Lei Xiaojun, broke out in a sweat: “Chairman, Mr.

Ding, should we possibly adjourn the eting for now and discuss this matter amongst the three of us…”

His heart was in shambles…

Such a significant matter, and as president, he was not inford beforehand.

This sudden showdown seed very inappropriate.

However, Li Changsheng waved his hand: “If you don’t express your opinion, we can go directly to a vote!”

Direct vote!

What’s the point then?

With the Li family owning more than half of the shares alone, any absurd resolution would be dictated by them.

This is the downside of a single shareholder having an overwhelming majority.

Previously, the three founders were compassionate, and things never reached such an extre, nor did such serious issues occur, but today, Li Changsheng insisted on taking this step.

From the get-go, the normally profitable shareholder eting was fraught with hostility…

Why?

Why is this happening?

Did the chairman, having lost his son yesterday, direct all his wrath towards Ding Lizhong?

Does he truly intend to ruin the Ding family?

It was at this mont that the chairman’s secretary welcod three visitors to the chairman’s office.

One was the head of the Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation Team, Shen Yinchuan.

Another was a young man with a serious deanor and obscure identity, known only to be soone of significant status, naturally number 88.

And the third young man was Lin Xiaosu.

“Chief Shen!” the secretary greeted with a sweet smile.

“May I ask what brings you here?”

“We need to see Chairman Li!”

The secretary said, “The chairman is currently conducting a shareholder eting.

Could you please wait here, it will be over in an hour at most.”

“Let him co here!

Imdiately!” Shen Yinchuan insisted.

The secretary hesitated slightly: “Chief Shen, the chairman is holding a shareholder eting!

The shareholder eting is the most solemn and important event for the company…”

Shen Yinchuan coldly said: “Are you suggesting that we should go to the eting and drag him out?”

“This…” The secretary’s face changed color.

“Just a company, yet you’re speaking in riddles and excuses when faced with police investigation.

Who’s responsible for this rotten habit?” Shen Yinchuan said: “Give him five minutes to co here imdiately, otherwise, I’m not opposed to inviting him to the Criminal Investigation Team for questioning!”

The secretary was stunned; she had seen Shen Yinchuan before, but would Shen Yinchuan of the past act like this?

Absolutely not!

Even his superior, the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau Director, wouldn’t do this!

Today…

Today there’s a problem!

A very big problem!

The secretary left the office, hurriedly trotting towards the eting room.

Inside the eting room, a tense and confrontational atmosphere had already enveloped everyone.

Although it’s said that the shareholders’ statents don’t fundantally affect the outco, their stances affect themselves.

This is a clash between two giants; if you back the wrong side, you’ll inevitably be ousted from the company.

Thus, although Li Changsheng seed to democratically grant all the senior managers the right to speak, everyone understood that this was more like a “loyalty test.”

Senior managent positions at Changsheng Group are very desirable, not only offering high salaries but also annual share dividends that outsiders would envy.

Under such circumstances, who would dare to truly oppose the chairman?

Because no one could see any chance for Ding Lizhong.

His position as the first vice president would dissolve into smoke with just one docunt, and how much of his tens of billions worth of assets could remain would depend on the lengthy legal battles to co, but at the current stage, they were surely gone…

Although people agreed with Ding Lizhong’s argunt, self-preservation was more important, and it really wasn’t worth tying themselves to his fate.

Everyone looked at each other; although no one had spoken yet, it was foreseeable that as soon as one person stood up to speak, Ding Lizhong would likely face a collapse like snow lting under hot water…

Ding Lizhong was once a university professor and had struggled in a place like Changsheng Group for over twenty years.

Regardless of whether he was old-fashioned or not, at least he wasn’t stupid.

He knew what the outco would be for himself, and although he was filled with grievances, what could he do?

At this mont, the door to the eting room was suddenly pushed open.

The secretary ca rushing in.

Li Changsheng stared coldly at the secretary: “Didn’t you see we’re in a eting?”

The secretary, sowhat pale, approached the chairman and whispered sothing…

Li Changsheng abruptly looked up: “Word for word?”

“Yes!”

Li Changsheng’s gaze slowly lifted, hesitating for a mont before saying: “Let’s adjourn the eting temporarily!”

He quickly left the eting room.

Leaving a group of people dumbfounded.

The most bewildered among them was Li Heming.

Even he didn’t know what had just happened.

But he knew that adjourning the eting at this ti was definitely inappropriate; once you start sothing, you should follow through with vigor.

If you lose montum halfway, complications will arise.

Out of the corner of his eye, he had already seen the exchange of looks between Lei Xiaojun and Ding Lizhong…

Lei Xiaojun definitely hoped that Ding Lizhong would stay; their relationship had always been good…

Li Changsheng strode back to his office.

When he exited the eting room, his expression was very grim.

But as he approached the office door, the grimness was replaced with calm.

When he opened the office door, his face bore a gentle smile…

“Chief Shen!” Li Changsheng greeted warmly: “Sorry to have kept you waiting!”

He shook hands with Shen Yinchuan.

Then, his gaze turned to No.

88.

No.

88 didn’t extend his hand and spoke very coldly: “Chairman Li seems to be quite busy, let’s dispense with the pleasantries!”

“Who might this be…” Li Changsheng’s hand extended towards No.

88, hanging in mid-air.

“He’s my superior, not from the Dong Chu Public Security System!” Shen Yinchuan said.

With that, the office fell into a silence that was a bit terrifying.

Because Shen Yinchuan’s words were contradictory and frightening.

Shen Yinchuan is the head of the Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation Team, already a high-ranking official, a director-level position!

His superior, in theory, should be a leader from Dong Chu Province Hall.

But he explicitly stated not from the Dong Chu Public Security System.

That left too much room for imagination…

Li Changsheng, after all, was soone who had weathered great storms, and the shock in his heart passed in a flash, his smile undiminished: “Please, leaders, co in!”

The secretary opened the inner office of the chairman.

Everyone entered.

Li Changsheng selectively ignored Lin Xiaosu, who also acted as if she were invisible.

Tea was served, four cups.

The secretary did not treat him as invisible.

She still offered him the basic courtesy due to a guest.
