Shanghua Securities' New Chairman (Second Update)
And with only twenty percent of the shares in his hands now, he had lost his controlling stake in Shanghua Securities.
Shanghua Securities had been built from the ground up by him. Just as its market value had reached five hundred million, he had lost it like this. He was unwilling to accept it.
Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only face reality.
Fan Yu's expression turned cold. "All right, I'll give you two choices now. First, sell the shares in your hands to me. Second, I'll kick you out of the board, and you won't get a thing."
Having secured a controlling stake, Fan Yu had plenty of ways to acquire Ma Gang's shares. By then, Ma Gang might not get even a cent.
If Ma Gang was smart, he would make the wise choice.
Ma Gang had not lost his mind and made the choice most beneficial to himself.
Once the share transfer was complete, the entire Shanghua Securities would be his. He had acquired a small company worth several hundred million with ease.
"All right, this is no longer your place."
Fan Yu walked over to Ma Gang's side and spoke indifferently.
Ma Gang rose to his feet in a daze and walked out of the conference room.
Outside, many people watched the Chairman with puzzled expressions. What was going on? Why did the Chairman look so absent-minded?
"Then, Mr. Fan, we won't disturb you any longer."
The former directors of Shanghua Securities left one after another.
As they passed Ma Gang, the former directors shook their heads and sighed.
The world was unpredictable, and things changed too quickly. A perfectly good company had become someone else's in the blink of an eye. Who could bear that?
Before long, all of Shanghua Securities' management had arrived in the conference room.
When they saw Fan Yu, all of them looked puzzled.
They had heard that a new Chairman had taken office, and they were all extremely shocked.
Fan Yu folded his hands on the table and said with a smile, "Let me introduce myself first. I am the new owner of Shanghua Securities. My name is Fan Yu. You may call me President Fan or Boss."
"President Fan."
The executives all spoke in unison.
"Mm, not bad. Now, let me say a few simple things."
"I will immediately begin restructuring the company. Ma Gang's old ways are all abolished. I will issue new regulations. Also, the company will not support idlers. Those who accomplish nothing and only know how to muddle through will be kicked out of the company."
"Anyone with some self-awareness can hand in their resignation letter to me. At that time, I will have the Finance Department settle their wages."
"If you wait for me to clean house, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Those who remain shouldn't celebrate too soon either. If your performance is poor in the future, I won't keep you around."
After saying that, Fan Yu stood and left.
Inside the conference room, the management began discussing it curiously.
Who exactly was this young man? Although Shanghua Securities was not one of those corporate giants, it was still worth several hundred million. Yet it had been acquired overnight.
The sudden change at Shanghua Securities left many ordinary employees uneasy, unsure whether the new boss would lay them off.
Fan Yu spent the entire day at Shanghua Securities. Before leaving, he instructed a manager, "I may rarely come to the company in the future, so you will handle the company's affairs. Call me if anything comes up. Upload the company documents to my email every night, and I will review them regularly."
After leaving Shanghua Securities, Fan Yu felt somewhat emotional. Being a boss was truly exhausting.
He was severely lacking management talent around him right now. Zhang Qian was quite capable, but she was too busy over at Arcane and could not get away at all.
As he drove along the bustling streets of Magic City, cars streamed past him, while neon lights flashed through the night. Fan Yu felt that the world was so beautiful.
Brilliant Years Entertainment City was one of Magic City's top nightclubs.
The recent rush of work had left Fan Yu physically and mentally exhausted. He wanted to find somewhere to relax, and naturally, the best place for that was a nightclub.
After parking his car, he entered Brilliant Years with his car keys in hand.
The lavishly decorated lobby, the beautiful receptionist, and the alluring hostesses were all exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
"Welcome."
The hostess greeted him politely.
Fan Yu nodded.
"This way, sir."
The hostess led Fan Yu into the dance club, where a waiter approached him.
"How does spending work here?"
Fan Yu asked, feeling the pounding music in the club. His body almost wanted to sway along with the beat.
The waiter said, "We have two spending options here: booth seating and private seating."
"The minimum spend for a booth is one thousand, while private seating is ten thousand."
"Then I'll take private seating."
Fan Yu said with a smile.
"Certainly, sir. This way, please."
On the second floor of the dance club were large sofas that could accommodate up to twenty people. The location was also the best, offering a direct view of the dance floor downstairs and the men and women twisting to the music.
"What would you like to drink, sir?"
the waiter asked respectfully.
Fan Yu picked up the drink menu on the table and looked through it.
"I'll have this one."
When the waiter saw the liquor Fan Yu had pointed at, he could not help but freeze.
"Sir, are you sure you want this bottle?"
The waiter wanted to confirm it.
"Mm, that's the one."
"What? Are you afraid I can't afford it?"
Fan Yu said blandly.
"Sorry, sir. I'll get it right away."
The liquor Fan Yu had chosen was Hennessy XO Supreme Edition, priced at 188,000. It was also the most expensive liquor at Brilliant Years.
