Chapter 1072: Business War
Therefore, Young Master Leng was a rich fop, a school bully, and a gangster—he had a bad reputation. Leng Group’s employees aside, everyone in the upper echelons of Emperor District who paid attention to the Leng family would know that.
Although the Leng family was powerful and had a reliable son like Leng Jinpeng, families usually would not stay rich for three generations. In Leng Qirui’s generation, they only had one good-for-nothing in the entire Leng family line. There was no way he could keep up to the family name.
Therefore, the entire Leng Group was in a state of anxiety. Everyone imagined that once Leng Qirui took over the position as chairman of the board, Leng Group would go bankrupt within three years.
Perhaps, it might not need three years. If he was worse than the rumors said, he could destroy Leng Group within a year and a half.
The employees who had high hopes for the Leng Group and wanted to make a name for themselves in the company now felt like ants on a hot pan. They could not help feeling that Leng Group was suddenly as unappealing as chicken ribs. They should leave such an unappetizing offer… but after so many years, they were truly reluctant to leave.
Therefore, when Leng Qirui got pushed through Leng Group’s headquarters with his arm and leg covered in plaster and a severely bruised face—surrounded by a group of bodyguards—all the employees lost hope.
The new chairman of Leng Group looked very different from the handsome and elegant figures from the other big families. It was hard to describe Chairman Leng’s looks.
What was the difference between him and those defeated j.a.panese soldiers fleeing for their lives?
He still had the cheek to call for a shareholders’ meeting looking like this?
It hurt simply to look at him!
When Leng Jinjie and Leng Jinchen’s employees saw the new chairman, they all took out the resignation letters they wrote yesterday and were prepared to hand them in collectively during the board meeting.
Vice President Leng said that strength was power.
If that spoiled brat, Leng Qirui, really wanted to be the chairman, they would collectively resign. Everyone would see if he dared to accept that!
In the most authoritative-looking board meeting room of the company on the 27th floor, Leng Qirui sat alone on the main seat while all other seats were empty.
Leng Jinjie, Leng Jinchen, and the 24 shareholders were all absent.
The chairman’s secretary was Leng Jinchen’s henchman. He gloated as he watched the new chairman sitting alone in the meeting room.
Vice President was right. Even if Leng Qirui had the most shares, he was just a piece of mud that could not even be used to build a wall. Once they gave him some trouble, Leng Qirui would immediately cower.
The chairman’s secretary looked down at himself. However, in reality, he was laughing internally. He lowered his head in disdain.
“Secretary Chen.”
Chen Shan was stunned when Leng Qirui suddenly called him. He replied, “I’m here.”
“I asked you to inform all the directors about the board meeting yesterday. Did you inform them?”
“Chairman, I’ve informed them all.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, Chairman, I’m sure.”
Leng Qirui nodded.
Just when Chen Shan thought that Leng Qirui was going to go home and cry to his father after seeing that there was no one around, Leng Qirui took out his phone indifferently and made a call. When the call went through, he said calmly, “Come up.”
Chen Shan was stunned once again. He did not know if Leng Qirui was trying to get reinforcements or something else altogether.
However, he soon found out who Leng Qirui summoned over.
Seeing a group of people in high-cla.s.s suits enter, Chen Shan’s eyes narrowed subtly.
