Being Reborn And Starting Off By Not Being A Simp-Chapter 549: Sense of Ceremony
Su Qi had been the acting CEO for more than half a year. There had long been people who wanted to make her the CEO.
The word "generation" always gave people a sense of instability.
The corporation needed a stable management.
Su Qi had been the vice president for two to three years, and her achievements in those two to three years had been recognized by the shareholders.
When Su Yi had just died, those shareholders had hoped that Su Qi could become the official president of the group.
However, the appointment of the president of such a large corporation was not a child’s play. It had to be confirmed through an official shareholders ’meeting and had to be recognized by the majority of the shareholders.
The only person who could hold a shareholders ’meeting to discuss this topic was Ding Yun, the chairman.
In the past, during the board meeting, someone had mentioned holding such a shareholders ’meeting to discuss the candidate for the CEO. However, Ding Yun had rejected it, saying that it was not the time to discuss this topic.
Ding Yun was not only the chairman of the group, but she also owned 55% of the group’s shares. She was the majority. If she did not agree to appoint a new president, there was nothing she could do.
Actually, the shareholders did not necessarily want Su Qi to be the president. They just needed an official president to help stabilize the management.
They could also accept promoting a capable person or hiring a capable person from outside to be the president of the group.
Someone had suggested this to Ding Yun.
However, Ding Yun did not accept him. She knew nothing about the management of the group and did not know who was the capable person in the group and whether she could rely on them. She did not know how to hire a trustworthy person to be the CEO, so she could only suppress those voices.
From the start, her candidate was Liu Qing. At that time, she had yet to acknowledge Liu Qing, so she wanted Liu Qing to become the CEO of the group.
It didn’t matter if he was capable or not. As long as that person was her biological son and acknowledged her as his mother, it was fine.
If Liu Qing was unwilling to acknowledge him, then he could only choose someone from his maternal family.
She knew that her family did not have the ability to do so, but she was still a family member. If she could convert those shares into cash and put them in her pocket, she would be able to accept it even if it was a 50% discount.
As for whether or not the corporation would fail in the end, that was not something she cared about.
Liu Qing’s performance later on was not bad, which made her mind a lot more active.
When Liu Qing and Su Qi were tied together, she felt even more at ease.
His current goal was not to use the shares to cash out from the group, but to let the group develop further.
Of course, the position of CEO could only be held by Liu Qing.
She felt that her son already had such an ability.
Her thoughts had been known by the top management of the group last year. At that time, she had formed an alliance with another major shareholder, Gu Jianguo. The two of them together owned more than two-thirds of the shares of the group. Basically, they could achieve whatever they wanted.
The shareholders stopped urging Ding Yun to appoint the CEO.
Things were already so clear, and no one had the ability to change the final outcome, so there was no need to rush.
At that time, the higher-ups were actually quite unstable.
Liu Qing’s background was not a secret. If the shareholders wanted to know, they would soon find out.
To be honest, no one knew how far the company could go if a security guard with a low education level was the president of Tian Yuan Corporation and a housewife with an even lower education level was the chairman.
There were even a few shareholders who secretly encouraged Su Qi to form a company together and empty out the Tian Yuan Corporation, injecting their assets into the company they had established.
However, he did not receive Su Qi’s approval.
Later on, Su Qi and Ding Yun used Liu Qing as a medium to break the ice, which made the group’s higher-ups heave a sigh of relief.
However, they were not sure if the CEO would let Su Qi or Liu Qing do it.
Later on, in an online video conference, Liu Qing and Su Qi appeared under the same camera, acting like a couple.
This guess was meaningless.
Anyway, the position of CEO would be decided between this man and woman. It didn’t matter to them who it was.
At that time, Liu Qing would also show his business vision. Not many people in the group would object to him being the president.
No one cared about the suspense of the CEO anymore.
Many people in the company had even forgotten that they did not even have an official president.
It wasn’t until Su Qi mentioned it that everyone suddenly remembered that the company hadn’t officially appointed a president yet.
No one objected to Su Qi’s suggestion.
Although the position of the CEO would not fall to anyone else, it was still better to accept an official CEO.
Everyone expressed that this was possible.
As for the nomination of the president, the major shareholders could propose their own candidates and discuss them at the shareholders ’meeting. In the end, the chairman would decide on the nomination and then officially appoint them through the board of directors’ vote.
In terms of procedure, such a shareholders ’meeting could not be held at all. The chairman could just directly nominate the president.
However, both Ding Yun and Su Qi hoped that Liu Qing’s appointment as CEO could withstand more scrutiny. Therefore, they decided to discuss it through the shareholders ’meeting to express their common opinion.
