The agenda of the second day of Tianyuan Association's meeting went extremely smoothly.
To the surprise of those media reporters who wanted to capture big news, because basically no one protested or expressed dissatisfaction at the meeting.
This is the most peaceful session in history.
At the meeting, Lin Zhengyi was successfully elected as the new president of the Tianyuan Association with a vote of 8 to 7, but the position of chairman was taken by the Zhao family, who is also a wealthy family in the capital.
Then at the meeting, several agendas were put forward to limit the rights of the president and chairman.
Most of the decision-making power of the president and chairman has been basically eliminated, and their opinions must be approved by the overwhelming majority of the board of directors before they can be implemented.
In other words, all future rights will be in the hands of the council members.
As for the council members, currently five are from the Kazekage family, and three neutral ones are also from the Kazekage family. Therefore, the Lin family has actually become a weak party.
Of course, the Lin family still holds the position of president.
Although this position is more symbolic at present, it can still become a symbol of the Lin family being the most powerful family in the world.
Lin Zhengyi reluctantly accepted everyone's congratulations.
Of course, one can imagine the depression in his heart, but to the surprise of the reporters, Lin Zhengyi behaved very well and even congratulated Zhao Dingnan on his successful election and assuming the position of chairman of the Tianyuan Association.
Many people cannot understand this result.
Because it is obvious that although the Lin family had the last laugh in the election of the chairman, the Lin family did not have the last laugh in the chairmanship. Moreover, the result of supporting Zhao Dingnan as chairman was 8 to 4, while only four votes were opposed.
.
Lin Zhengyi received only eight votes as president, and as many as four votes against him.
What does this mean? It means that the Lin family actually has no say in the council.
The position of chairman, a position that truly holds power, has fallen by the wayside.
But of course, fortunately, the rights of the chairman are also restricted, so in fact, the future rights of the Tianyuan Association are placed in the hands of the fifteen board members.
This is certainly not a good thing for the Lin family, but for other board members, this result is undoubtedly the best. After all, in the past, they could only serve as the mouthpiece of the Lin family. But it is different now.
Now I really have certain rights.
Of course, these people also know very well who helped them obtain this right.
Without the Kazekage, they would just be yes-men for the rest of their lives.
The three-day meeting passed quickly.
The result was completely beyond the original predictions of others, and the news media used huge headlines to exaggerate the Lin family's defeat to the extreme.
For a time, the reputation of the Lin family fell to the bottom.
However, this was only the initial stage. Next, the stock prices of several major listed companies owned by the Lin family fell.
In just one week, the value of the Lin family's listed companies in the stock market evaporated by more than 8 billion.
Lin Zhengyi slowly walked into Lin Zhentian's study with a livid face.
Entering the house, he didn't dare to take a breath.
At this moment, Lin Zhentian had his head lowered. He was leaning in front of the desk and writing calligraphy very seriously.
After Lin Zhengyi entered, he stood there for about five or six minutes, but Lin Zhentian seemed not to see him and continued to write his words.
Lin Zhengyi didn't dare to breathe until Lin Zhentian finally finished writing, then raised his head and glanced at him.
"Come here!" He put down his brush and turned his head towards Lin Zhengyi. He said hello with a smile.
There was no unhappy expression on his face.
Lin Zhengyi felt uneasy for a while, but he still walked over: "Dad! This time I..."
Lin Zhentian waved his hand: "Come here. These words are what I want to give to you." Lin Zhentian motioned to Lin Zhengyi to read the words on the desk.
Lin Zhengyi looked at it curiously.
I found that what was written above was just two very ordinary lines.
"Forbearance a moment, calm, take a step back, a brighter future."
"Dad, what do you mean..." Lin Zhengyi came to his senses, "Let us endure it first?"
"Zhengyi, actually I know the whole process of this Tianyuan Association election. Are you still blaming me in your heart for why you didn't attend because you were sick and why you resigned as president?"
"Zhengyi doesn't dare." Lin Zhengyi hurriedly shook his head, "You must have your own arrangements for doing this."
Hearing this, Lin Zhentian laughed a few times and reached out to pat Lin Zhengyi's shoulder: "One thing, I'm very happy. Although I made some decisions that seemed very strange to you, you never doubted it.
He didn’t come to question me.”
"Dad's decision must be based on your own considerations." Lin Zhengyi said hurriedly.
"Oh, tell me, what have I considered?" Lin Zhentian asked with interest.
"I think Dad's concern is because of his friendship with Mr. Kazekage, and he can't bear to see the Kazekage family destroyed."
Lin Zhengyi responded casually.
Lin Zhentian stared at Lin Zhengyi and turned on the wall-mounted TV directly opposite the study room with a snap.
On the TV, the current financial news is being played. A well-known reporter from the China Financial News Channel is interviewing the CEO of the Gordon Group, a subsidiary of the Lin Group, and asking him about his views on the decline in the stock price of the Gordon Group.
When Lin Zhentian saw this scene, there was no expression on his face. Instead, he stared at Lin Zhengyi and asked with a smile: "Do you really think so?"
Lin Zhengyi sighed, finally picked up the two inscriptions, and said slowly: "Dad, do you want to make progress by retreating?"
Lin Zhentian laughed: "If we make progress by retreating, there is no need to give up the position of chairman to Zhao Dingnan."
"Please forgive Yi'er for being stupid, Dad, what do you think?"
To put it bluntly, Lin Zhengyi could understand that Lin Zhentian did not attend the meeting, but he really couldn't understand that he was indifferent to what happened in the process and acted as if he was taking it easy.
Unless Lin Zhentian knows what he is thinking in his heart.
But that's impossible.
"Zhengyi, you are decisive and can quickly judge various situations and make various reasonable responses. I am very pleased about this, but one thing is that your overall view needs to be improved." Lin Zhentian walked out slowly with his hands behind his back.
, "Have you ever thought about why the Fengying family dares to fight us?"
Lin Zhengyi frowned. He wanted to say that the other party had a weird one, Ning Yi!
"You must really want to say that they have a monster, which is Feng Yingkong's disciple, Ning Yi, right?"
Seeing that he was seen through, Lin Zhengyi had no choice but to nod and admit: "I never thought that I would meet such an opponent. I have to say that this Ning Yi really put me in a situation where I was passively beaten in many things.
, without him, there would definitely be no situation like today.”
Hearing this, Lin Zhentian did not respond to him immediately. Instead, he walked aside, tapped his ring finger on the table, and said slowly after a while: "So, why did I just say that your overall view is still a little lacking?"
Lin Zhengyi's eyes were a little uncertain, but he immediately asked respectfully: "Dad, please give me your instructions."
"Actually, the reason why you lost this time was not because you really lost to the Fengying family, nor to Ning Yi." Lin Zhentian said lightly, "The reason why you failed is because all our enemies united.
, you lost to the Zhong family, the Mu family, the Zhao family, the Fengying family and other wealthy families."
"So, in a strict sense, you are not considered a failure. There are probably no wealthy families in this world that can withstand the combined attacks of the Zhong family, the Mu family, the Zhao family, and the Feng Ying family.
So this time you can seize the position of president when they are unanimously against us, which is not considered a failure."
Lin Zhengyi looked astonished: "No wonder, in this election, so many families suddenly appeared to oppose us, and these families have made it clear that they have nothing to do with the Fengying family. It turns out that it is the Zhong family and the Mu family who are responsible for this.
."
"The Zhong family has always regarded us as their biggest rival to take down the first family in the Huaxia region. The Mu family is on the same side as them, so they naturally hope that we will fight with the Fengying family and other wealthy families who are also members of the Tianyuan Association.
Get up, once we focus all our energy on the Fengying family and the Zhao family, it will definitely be the best for the Zhongmu family."
Lin Zhengyi looked thoughtful: "I see, then I got it right this time. I took a step back and the sky is brighter. I understand. By doing this, we avoided a direct confrontation with the Fengying family, and ended up with both sides losing.
Instead, the fisherman of the Zhong family and the Mu family will benefit."
Lin Zhentian glanced at him and smiled lightly: "In any case, the current situation is not too bad for us."
"However, our current stock price has been falling."
"This is nothing. It just so happens that we can take advantage of this opportunity of the stock market crash to buy back some listed companies with potential at low prices. After a while, our Lin family will issue a few statements. The falling stock prices will
You can make a comeback in a moment." Lin Zhentian said nonchalantly.
"It turns out dad has everything under control." Lin Zhengyi looked surprised.
"Okay, take these two words, calm down and think about it." Lin Zhentian waved his hand, indicating that Lin Zhengyi could leave.
Lin Zhengyi did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly and carefully picked up the two words, rolled them up, and then respectfully exited the study.
Staring at the closed door, Lin Zhengyi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint sneer.
In the study, Lin Zhentian sat back in his seat, then looked sideways, and said helplessly: "Come out, there is nothing to hide."
On the side, Lin Zhengya slowly walked out from behind the screen: "Dad, why do I feel that what the elder brother said is weird? With his ability, he shouldn't know what the Zhong family and the Mu family are doing behind the scenes, right?"
Lin Zhentian didn't speak, just smiled faintly: "By the way, have you seen that Ning Yi?" (To be continued)
