The second meeting of the first board of directors of Lanhai Company was held at ten o'clock in the morning. But in fact, as early as 9 o'clock, both Lan Ruo and others from Hong Kong, as well as Zhao Chunlin from Haidu Oil and Gas Company, had already arrived in advance.
.
But Zhao Chunlin's expression was ugly. It was obvious that he had received notice from above and knew that Lan Enterprise's control of Lan Hai Company had become an irreversible situation.
I felt angry, suppressed and irritable, but I still had to come. Not only did I have to come, I also pretended to be enthusiastic and shook hands with Lan Ruo and others.
"Director Lan, this is Mr. Zhao from Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation." Zhou Nan smiled lightly and introduced the two of them.
Lan Ruo smiled gracefully and stretched out her hand to shake Zhao Chunlin's hand, "I have admired you for a long time, Mr. Zhao. This time we came from Hong Kong, mainly to meet Mr. Zhao and talk with Mr. Zhao about the next step of cooperation between our two companies!
"
Zhao Chunlin cursed secretly in his heart, but he had to smile and said, "Dr. Lan, you are so polite. Please sit down."
Lanhai Company currently has five directors - Meng Chunlin, Liu Jie, Zhou Nan, Jia Nan, Lin Xueer, and Meng Chunting withdrew, and Zhao Chunlin was re-elected as director. However, although Liu Jie wants to resign as chairman, he has no intention of withdrawing from the board of directors.
, that is, he will also occupy a director seat.
In this way, Lan Ruo has four directors, while Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation only has Zhou Nan and Zhao Chunlin.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lan Ruo nodded to Zhou Nan, "Mr. Zhou, shall we start?"
Zhou Nan hummed, glanced at Zhao Chunlin again, and then waved to Dong Qiliang and Ma Xiaojing who were attending the meeting.
Dong Qiliang immediately sat upright and said loudly, "The second meeting of the first board of directors of Lanhai Company has begun. According to the proposal of the first board of directors, today's meeting agenda only has the following items."
"The first item is to review and approve Meng Chunting's application to resign as chairman of Lanhai Company. The second item is to review and approve the application for by-election of Lan Ruo and Zhao Chunlin as directors of the board of directors. The third item is to review and approve the re-establishment of Lanhai Company
Report on the company's equity. The fourth item is to elect the new chairman and vice chairman. The fifth item is to review and discuss the proposal to elect additional directors to the board of directors. Lanli Energy Investment Group and Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation respectively proposed director candidates.
Item 6: Review and approve the report on the selection of the company’s administrative team..."
"Let's proceed to the first item first, review and approve Meng Chunting's application to resign as chairman of Lanhai Company..." Dong Qiliang read Meng Chunting's resignation application loudly, and then Lan Ruo took the lead and raised his hand first, and then everyone also
Raise your hands, there is no suspense about this, let alone any controversy.
The second item on the agenda also went smoothly, and the third item on the family reunion, which clarified Lan's controlling interest in Lanhai Company, was also passed smoothly. As for the election of chairman, Lan Ruo was also unanimously elected. At the same time, Zhao Chunlin was elected as vice president.
Chairman.
Even Zhao Chunlin voted for Lan Ruo. There was no way, Lan's enterprise already occupied a large share of assets, and the city leaders specially called to "wake up", Zhao Chunlin didn't dare to do it even if he had the courage.
Making trouble secretly.
But when it came to electing additional directors, a fierce conflict arose. Zhao Chunlin's reaction was so violent that it was beyond Lan Ruo's expectation.
Zhao Chunlin proposed two candidates for directors, one was Sun Bo, chairman of the labor union of Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation, and the other was his office director Wang Jie. Lan Ruo's candidate was Ma Xiaojing, a middle-level manager of Lanhai Company, and also nominated Dong Qiliang as secretary of the board of directors.
.
There are only two places in total, and Liu Jie himself occupies one. Plus Ma Xiaojing, it is very likely that none of the candidates proposed by Zhao Chunlin will be elected to the board of directors.
Zhao Chunlin's face turned ugly.
Lan Ruo's people accounted for the majority of the board of directors, so there was no suspense at all. Even Zhou Nan raised his hand to approve Ma Xiaojing's selection.
Zhao Chunlin let out a long breath, forced himself to hold back the huge surge of anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "Director Lan, is this not good? Even if you are the largest shareholder, you cannot occupy all the seats on the board of directors.
, you only account for five of the seven directors... This is definitely not okay!"
There was something in Zhao Chunlin's heart that he hadn't said yet. He secretly said angrily, "Zhou Nan is nominally a member of the company, but in fact he wears the same pants as you... Damn it, this Lanhai company is really going to succeed.
It’s your world?! Are you obviously trying to bully others?!”
"If Director Lan insists on doing this, then I will protest on behalf of Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation, and we will definitely not agree!" Zhao Chunlin waved his hands angrily, "We are partners, not superiors and subordinates. You are on the board of directors
It occupies the absolute right to speak, which is not conducive to our supervision of state-owned assets. I will report it to the city leaders!"
Zhou Nan remained silent. His status was different, so it was most appropriate for him to remain silent.
Seeing that Zhao Chunlin was a little embarrassed, Lan Ruo also darkened her face. She smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Zhao, don't get excited yet. We currently have seven people on the board of directors, but actually we only have two people, that is me and the person from the Group's Investment Management Department.
Minister Liu, Liu Jie.”
"As for Lin Xueer, Jia Nan, and Ma Xiaojing, they are all current employees of Lanhai Company. They join the board of directors as the company's top managers, and they represent the interests of Lanhai Company employees, not the interests of our Lanhai Company.
"
"This point must be made clear. There are two of us, and you are also two. How can it be an illegal operation? It is reasonable and legal!" After Lan Ruo finished speaking, he slowly leaned over and took a sip of tea, then raised his head and glanced at Zhao Chunlin.
, "Mr. Zhao said that's the case?"
Zhao Chunlin was so angry that he could no longer think about the face of Hong Kong-funded entrepreneurs. At this moment, even his own face was gone, and he could still consider the face of others. He sneered, "Director Lan, you can't say that.
Put it this way, Miss Lin Xueer and Mr. Jia Nan are both managers sent by you, so why can’t they represent your interests? Huh? How can they still speak for us?! What a joke!”
"Haha, they are no longer from Lanhai Company headquarters. If Mr. Zhao doesn't believe it, I can ask the Hong Kong headquarters to send Mr. Zhao a fax proving that they have an employment relationship with the headquarters. They are now employees of Lanhai Company...
…Just like Miss Ma Xiaojing, she was originally a middle-level cadre of your company, but now she is also an employee of Lanhai Company and represents Lanhai Company, that’s all!”
Lan Ruo waved her hands leisurely. The grace of that gesture, in Zhao Chunlin's eyes, became a naked provocation!
Suddenly, Zhao Chunlin suddenly had a strong feeling of being alone and being treated like a monkey by everyone. He could no longer suppress the burning anger in his heart. He stood up and said angrily, "On behalf of Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation, I firmly
If I do not accept this result, I am withdrawing from this board meeting!"
Lan Ruo also stood up suddenly, with a hint of coldness on her beautiful face. She said coldly, "The minority obeys the majority. Most of the directors of the board of directors raised their hands to pass. This vote is legal and valid! Since Mr. Zhao wants to withdraw, then
And just quit!"
Lan Ruo Yingying stood on the spot, exuding a noble and inviolable aura. Even Zhou Nan did not expect that the elegant and calm Lan Ruo would have such an angry side!
Then he thought again, if Lan Ruo was just a gentle and beautiful vase, how could she control such a large company. Thinking like this, Zhou Nan felt relieved.
For this reason, Zhou Nan, who is also a member of the party committee and deputy general manager of Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation, has to come forward to smooth things over. If the board of directors really collapses this time, it will certainly be embarrassing for Zhao Chunlin, and he himself will not be happy.
It looks good, after all, he still represents the state-owned assets side.
"Mr. Zhao, please stay." Zhou Nan stood up and smiled, turned to look at Lan Ruo and said with a smile, "Mr. Lan, I think this can be done. How about we understand each other and take a step back?"
"Mr. Zhao, as a shareholder representative, has the right to propose director candidates. Of course, what Director Lan said is not unreasonable. Lin Xueer, Jia Nan and Ma Xiaojing represent the interests of Lanhai Company and do not represent the interests of both shareholders...
…Asking Haidu Petroleum and Gas Corporation to send another director is nothing more than increasing the number of directors on the board of directors. Isn’t it like destroying our good cooperative relationship over this trivial matter?”
Zhao Chunlin was a little surprised when Zhou Nan suddenly spoke for him, but he slowly walked back and sat down angrily.
Lan Ruo's deep eyes were cast on Zhou Nan, and she suddenly smiled sweetly, "Well, okay, that's it...Mr. Zhao, we still want to cooperate for a long time, there is no need to be unhappy over such a trivial matter...Haha!"
Zhao Chunlin's face looked better now, and he forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Director Lan, for understanding that we represent state-owned assets and have to consider the interests of the country. People cannot help themselves in their positions. Please forgive me, Director Lan."
Lan Ruo smiled slightly, but didn't say anything. She just turned her head and quickly exchanged a look with Zhou Nan.
In Zhou Nan's view, the reason why Zhao Chunlin competes for this directorship is just for his own face. After all, letting Sun Bo join the board of directors is just a decoration. What else can he do? Not to mention Sun Bo as a director, even Zhao Chunlin as a deputy director
It's just a flower vase.
As a result, the board of directors of Lanhai Company identified eight directors: Chairman Lan Ruo, Vice Chairman Zhao Chunlin, Directors Zhou Nan, Liu Jie, Lin Xueer, Jia Nan, Ma Xiaojing, Sun Bo, and Board Secretary Dong Qiliang.
Next, the board of directors reviewed and approved the nomination of General Manager Zhou Nan to appoint Dong Qiliang as Assistant General Manager and the nomination of Ma Xiaojing as Manager of the Finance Department.
Strictly speaking, the current structure of the board of directors is actually three factions: on one side are Lan's Enterprises, Lan Ruo, Jia Nan and Liu Jie, on the other side are Zhao Chunlin and Sun Bo, on the other side are Zhou Nan, Ma Xiaojing, and Lin Xueer
Then the wavering was actually slowly leaning towards Zhou Nan.
With three seats on the board of directors, and the management rights of General Manager Zhou Nan and several of his confidants occupying key positions in the company, Zhou Nan has fully achieved control over Lanhai Company.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Although Lan Ruo serves as the chairman of the board on behalf of Lan Company, Zhou Nan alone has the final say in Lan Hai Company located in Haidu.
…
It was already past 12 noon when the meeting ended, and Lan Ruo stayed to have dinner with the senior employees of Lan Hai Company, which was considered to be an announcement of the new chairman's existence.
Zhou Nan and Lan Ruo slowly walked along the corridor of the hotel to the room. On the way, Lan Ruo glanced at Zhou Nan and suddenly said calmly, "Zhou Nan, I always have the feeling that you are fishing in troubled waters... I have to remind you that as Lan
As a holding subsidiary of our company, the headquarters will send people over every once in a while to check the accounts and asset operations. At the same time, you, the general managers of the subsidiaries, will be summoned to Hong Kong to report on your work within half a year... You'd better not cause problems.
Otherwise, I will—"
Lan Ruo originally wanted to say, "Otherwise I wouldn't be able to protect you," but suddenly felt that this sentence was a bit too intimate and ambiguous, so she immediately stopped talking.
Zhou Nan smiled slightly and turned to stare at Lan Ruo, "I won't do tricks. If I want to do tricks, I won't let you find out."
"I don't have to hide it from you. I don't like to be restricted by others when I do things. Since Lanhai Company is under my control, it must operate according to my ideas - as for your Lan Company,
Just look at the final result, and I will give you a qualified performance report!"
Zhou Nan said softly and proudly. The pride inherent in his bones will not disappear even in front of the woman he loves.
Lan Ruo was startled when she heard the words, and then sighed softly. As she walked forward slowly, she lowered her voice and said, "You can just say this in front of me, but don't say it publicly... Why, I am a director
The president has just taken office, and you, the general manager appointed by the board of directors, are starting to rebel?"
Zhou Nan smiled and said nothing.
…
In the next two days, Lan Ruo attended various activities organized by Haidu City without stopping. She even went to a remote town to inspect and donated books and school supplies to local primary and secondary school students.
On the morning of the fourth day, Lan Ruo took Liu Jie and others and set off back to Hong Kong. When saying goodbye at the airport, Lan Ruo took advantage of others not paying attention and stuffed a small paper ball into Zhou Nan, which contained the address and address of a villa in a luxury area in Hong Kong written by Lan Ruo.
Most of the time, except for occasionally going home to reunite with her family, Lan Ruo mostly lives alone in this villa.
Others didn't notice Lan Ruo's little moves, but Lin Xueer, a thoughtful person, noticed it. She looked at Lan Ruo and Zhou Nan's somewhat reluctant farewell, and couldn't help but sigh softly in her heart. She didn't know if this relationship between the two was just a new one.
From the beginning, you will fall into a state of premature disillusionment.
On the way back, Zhou Nan suddenly received a call from his father, Zhou Ningyu. On the phone, Zhou Ningyu's voice was very urgent. Someone on his side did not say anything further, but just asked Zhou Nan to call him back as soon as possible.
There was something wrong with his father, and it was urgent. Zhou Nan's heart skipped a beat.
