Capítulo 1831: Chapter 1449: The First Half of the Meeting (Major Chapter) (3)

Upon hearing the identity of the person, those old shareholders nodded frequently.

Luo Zitian, beside them, also felt a bit proud, even glancing boastfully at Zhengdong Province.

However, when it came to accepting the votes from the old shareholders, Mr. Liu only garnered six votes, barely passing the critical threshold.

Among the top ten shareholders, apart from Zhengdong Province’s personal opposition, there were three staunch supporters who remained aligned with him.

Of course, Luo Zitian and his team had planned ahead, and Luo Zitian had two supporters; grabbing support from three neutral parties made passing easy.

“Our side just needs to secure qualifications, and as for others’ nominees, we’ll oppose them with three votes each! Calculating from before, there’s intense strife among the various shareholders, and there will be several who get eliminated! Even if the votes are tied, we’ll throw money at it; the spots for new shareholders are ours!” Luo Zitian whispered to Mr. Liu, reassuring him.

Mr. Liu nodded.

The second to step up was Zhengdong Province.

The person he introduced was Bai Xiaosheng.

Unlike Mr. Liu, who boasted shamelessly, Bai Xiaosheng merely mentioned he was a friend of Zhengdong Province, managing some businesses under him, with little introduction of himself, appearing quite modest.

“He used his real name!” Ma Tianqing felt a little disappointed; he had thought Bai Xiaosheng would use an alias, making it easier to “expose” him in public!

Bai Xiaosheng’s name was unfamiliar to most of those present.

After all, Bai Xiaosheng quickly assumed the position of Executive Director at Zhenbei Group with little fanfare, and after taking the role, he hadn’t accepted any media interviews before heading to Europe.

So, only a few industry leaders were aware of him.

Several large shareholders present were whispering, expressing familiarity with the name, thinking there was once a shareholder with the same name.

But no one had ever said that a new shareholder couldn’t be a former shareholder.

Hence, they only whispered a couple of things and stopped.

Upon Bai Xiaosheng saying he wasn’t Lin Sheng, the most shocked were Luo Zitian and Guo Nan.

Their eyes widened.

He actually used a fake identity!

He fooled me!

Luo Zitian was especially furious.

He had confidently reported this information!

What would Mr. Ma Zongting think!

What would the other two big bosses think!

And, Dong Tianlu was right there, wouldn’t she be upset?!

Luo Zitian felt his scalp prickling just thinking about it, while harboring deep “resentment” towards Bai Xiaosheng on stage.

He hated Bai Xiaosheng for using a fake identity, yet hated Bai Xiaosheng for not continuing with it, for revealing his real name so soon.

It was simply making trouble for him in front of Dong Tianlu.

“It’s not that I’m careless; it’s just that the man is too cunning! Damn Zhengdong Province too!” Luo Zitian gritted his teeth in hatred, wondering how to explain this matter to Ma Zongting and his crew afterward.

Of course, in his view, issues can’t entirely fall on him; anyone can be tricked, right…

Below the stage, Ma Tianqing pointed at Bai Xiaosheng on stage and said to Wang Helei, “Mr. Wang, so Lin Sheng turned out to be fake; his real name is Bai Xiaosheng! Although he didn’t use an alias now, it’s indeed regrettable we missed the chance to expose him publicly. However, we can still embarrass him! Right before selecting the new executive director in the second half, let’s damage his image! What do you think!”

Ma Tianqing didn’t care whether Bai Xiaosheng used his real name or an alias; he just needed Wang Helei, that fool, to step into Bai Xiaosheng’s trap!

“It’s true!” Wang Helei nodded, “Later, during the intermission, I’ll have a nice chat with him!”

Seeing Lao Wang ready to act, hidden pleasure danced in Ma Tianqing’s eyes.

On stage, Bai Xiaosheng appeared youthful in the eyes of everyone, yet his demeanor surpassed that of Mr. Liu!

Bai Xiaosheng first spoke about the inception of Shengsheng International, then discussed Shengsheng International’s glories over the years, retelling old tales, especially about Shengsheng International currently facing troubles, topics that resonated with the old employees, even the veteran shareholders were drawn to Bai Xiaosheng’s words.

Once everyone’s attention was captured, Bai Xiaosheng continued analyzing Shengsheng International’s development direction in recent years, affirming what needed affirming, regretting what needed regretting, discussing Shengsheng International’s various external financial report data without batting an eye!

Not only were the audience astonished, but even Zhengdong Province seemed stunned.

Brother Bai was truly sincere!

Zhengdong Province even felt a hint of emotion.

Actually, for Bai Xiaosheng to use data, there’s no need for excessive preparation beforehand; even with Red Lotus finding information onsite, it would be entirely sufficient.

Thus, Bai Xiaosheng truly amazed everyone.

Mr. Liu spoke for less than three minutes, while Bai Xiaosheng spoke for ten minutes, and the room was completely silent, both large and small shareholders sat straight, listening to his speech attentively.

Zhengdong Province felt somewhat proud.

His brother Bai Xiaosheng had such charisma, capable of holding any scene under control!

Bai Xiaosheng spoke for another ten minutes, and finally, Luo Zitian couldn’t hold back, demanding Bai Xiaosheng to stop.

If this continues, the whole meeting would become Bai’s single show.

In the end, the ten largest shareholders voted for Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng received seven votes!

Meaning, everyone except for Luo Zitian and his two “partners” voted in favor.

“Not bad at all!” Below the stage, Dong Tianlu smiled, watching Bai Xiaosheng stepping down from the stage.

She appreciated Bai Xiaosheng’s speech for quite some time and suddenly found this man really impressive!

“Of course, he’s my friend!” Dong Tianlu also felt a bit proud.

“This is just the first half; the real show is yet to come.” Dong Tianlu glanced at her brother, chuckled lightly, “Just wait and see if he will disappoint me later!”

After all, the second half is the key!

In the selection of new shareholders, seven out of ten passed.

Besides Bai Xiaosheng and another person, the remaining five had to choose three, which included the Mr. Liu brought by Luo Zitian.

The five of them, just like in a bidding, bid on site, proceeding with non-return investments.

Ultimately, Luo Zitian’s person naturally entered the new shareholders list without any suspense.

The first half of the meeting lasted two and a half hours, and under the host’s announcement, finally entered the intermission.

After all, everyone needed a breather, and some time to visit the restroom.

“Going to see your friend?” Dong Tianlu said with a smile to Dong Tianxiu beside her, and as she spoke, her charming eyes glanced in Bai Xiaosheng’s direction, “I’ll go over together with you, to get a fresh look at him!”
