Double evil in the business district

The moment Xiao Yue stepped into the conference room, the air seemed to freeze.

The heavy wooden door closed behind her, making a dull echo, like the verdict of fate.

On both sides of the long conference table sat the shareholders of Xiao Group. Their faces were gloomy and their eyes were sharp, like a group of cheetahs waiting for an opportunity, firmly locking onto the prey that had entered their territory.

Shareholder Zhang sat at the head of the table. His usual false smile had long since vanished, replaced by undisguised hostility.

His shrewd eyes were flashing with cold light at this moment, staring at Xiao Yue like a poisonous snake.

"Xiao Yue," shareholder Zhang spoke slowly, his voice low and hoarse, each word like a cold stone, hitting Xiao Yue's heart, "I heard that you have attracted some investment recently?" He paused deliberately, with a sarcastic arc at the corner of his mouth, "Young man, it's a good thing to be motivated, but you must also do what you can..." He dragged out the last word, his eyes scanning back and forth over Xiao Yue, as if he was examining a commodity waiting to be sold.

Several other conservative shareholders also echoed their opinions, talking one after another like a group of buzzing flies, disturbing Xiao Yue.

"Yes, Xiao Yue, you are too young and don't understand the rules of the business world." "Transformation is no joke. If it fails, can you bear the responsibility?" "We, the Xiao family, have built a foundation of several decades, and we can't let it be destroyed in your hands!"

Xiao Yue took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.

She knew that this was a Hongmen Banquet, and if she was not careful, she would lose everything.

She gracefully placed the documents on the table, glanced at the shareholders present, and said calmly and firmly, "Dear shareholders, I know you have some concerns about the transformation plan, but..."

"Concerns?" Shareholder Zhang slammed the table, interrupting Xiao Yue. "We're not concerned, we're opposed! You have no right to..."

Before he could finish his words, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open.

Shen Ting's tall figure appeared at the door. He was wearing a black suit and had a strong aura, as if he had his own light, which instantly attracted everyone's attention.

He walked straight to Xiao Yue and gently placed his hand on her shoulder, giving her silent support.

This action instantly eased the tense atmosphere.

Xiao Yue gave Shen Ting a grateful look, then calmly opened the folder in his hand, took out the market research report and profit forecast after the transformation that had been prepared long ago, and refuted the conservative shareholders' questions one by one with clear charts and data.

"Everyone, this transformation isn't a spur-of-the-moment decision; it's a strategic adjustment based on market changes and the company's future development." She pointed to the data on the projection screen and said firmly, "Our profit forecast after the transformation is conservatively estimated to increase by 30%. This is crucial to Xiao's long-term development." She paused, her gaze sweeping across the shareholders present, her tone carrying a hint of unquestionable authority. "I believe everyone here is thinking about Xiao's future. I hope you can view this transformation from a developmental perspective."

Some rational shareholders began to seriously consider Xiao Yue's proposal. They were originally instigated by shareholder Zhang and did not have a deep understanding of the transformation plan. Now seeing these data, they couldn't help but begin to waver.

Xiao Yue struck while the iron was hot and proposed a dividend adjustment plan that was beneficial to conservative shareholders, promising to increase their dividend ratio after the transformation was successful.

This move completely loosened the attitudes of some conservative shareholders, and they all expressed their willingness to reconsider.

Seeing the alliance he'd painstakingly built was about to crumble, shareholder Zhang was instantly enraged. His face livid, he abruptly stood up, pointed at Xiao Yue's nose, and roared, "You're bribing! You're buying people's hearts!" He glanced around, his tone threatening, "Don't forget who owns the Xiao family! Anyone who dares to support her is going against me!"

The atmosphere in the conference room became tense again, and some wavering shareholders began to hesitate again.

At this moment, there were two knocks on the door of the conference room...

Secretary Zhao pushed open the door and entered, holding a document. She walked over to Xiao Yue and whispered, "Mr. Xiao, this is the information you requested." Xiao Yue took the document, smiled slightly, and said to Shareholder Zhang, "Shareholder Zhang, you just accused me of bribing shareholders and buying their hearts. Do you have any evidence?" She unfolded the document and showed it to everyone. "Here are the company's financial statements for the past five years, as well as the dividend records for each shareholder. Shareholder Zhang, who did I bribe? Who did I buy? Please provide evidence!"

Shareholder Zhang's face flushed. He didn't expect that Xiao Yue was already prepared.

He stammered and was unable to speak, and could only point at Xiao Yue angrily and curse: "You...you..."

During the break of the meeting, Shen Ting walked into Xiao Yue's office carrying a box of exquisite snacks.

Inside the box was her favorite matcha red bean cake, which exuded a light fragrance.

He looked at Xiao Yue's tired face with heartache, gently placed the snacks on the table, then held her hand and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work." Xiao Yue held his hand in return, drawing strength from his warm palm. The tiredness was swept away, and the fighting spirit was rekindled in her eyes.

After returning to the conference room, Xiao Yue's momentum became even more fierce.

She pointed to the company's articles of association and said, "According to company regulations, the transformation plan can be passed as long as it obtains the consent of more than two-thirds of shareholders. Now, the number of shareholders who support the transformation plan has exceeded two-thirds, so the transformation plan is officially launched!" Shareholder Zhang wanted to continue arguing, but was interrupted by other shareholders, who all expressed their support for Xiao Yue's transformation plan.

Shareholder Zhang was isolated and helpless and could only watch Xiao Yue win.

However, Xiao Yue understood that this was only the first step.

The transformation of Xiao's enterprise still needs to be approved by the market supervision department, and there may be variables in the approval process.

She looked out the window. Night fell and the lights came on, but she could not feel the hustle and bustle of the city at all. A sense of unease welled up in her heart.

Her phone suddenly vibrated, and a text message popped up: "Mr. Xiao, tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock, the market supervision department will send someone to the company for an audit..."
