Chapter 1176: The Final Say

However, Leng Qirui s.h.i.+fted his body on the wheelchair and leaned in a different direction. He said, “Well, that’s because I’m the chairman, and I have the final say in everything in this company. If I ask him to be the CEO, he has the right to be the CEO. From now on, everything he says comes from me, and whatever he wants to do will go through me first. Do you have any objections to that?”

“Chairman, I’m the vice president and general manager of Meimei Department Store. Like Green City Group, Meimei Department Store is also one of the listed companies under the Leng Group.

“Similar to Vice President Leng Yuyang of Green City Group, we both work for the old chairman. For us to achieve what we’ve achieved today, we can be considered the old chairman’s trusted aides. To be honest, you’ve never partic.i.p.ated in anything related to managing the company before, but you’ve suddenly become the company’s top decision-maker. Everyone in the upper and middle management in the company is having cold feet on your taking over.”

“However, you’re the old chairman’s only grandson and the successor of Leng Group. It is only a matter of time before you take over the old chairman’s position. Therefore, you must believe us when we say that we have no qualms for your takeover.”

The vice president of Meimei Department Store had been very tactful with his words. He first managed to attract Leng Qirui’s attention before saying what he really wanted to say.

“However, an accident happened to the old chairman so suddenly and you’re only 18 years old. You’ve never received any training in corporate knowledge, and you’ve never even experienced any commercial wars before. Therefore, it will definitely be difficult for you to manage such a large corporation. To achieve that, you’ll have to choose a loyal a.s.sistant who knows everything about the company to a.s.sist you.

“We’ve all read Luo Cheng’s information. He’s truly outstanding and is an internationally renowned CEO. However, no matter how impressive he is, he doesn’t understand Leng Group’s operations! In addition, you don’t know what’s going on in Leng Group either. This means that the person who gives the orders and the officer who’s supposed to execute said orders are clueless about the company’s situation. This situation is very concerning.

“Therefore, as a senior in this company, I sincerely suggest that you let Luo Cheng go from the position as the CEO.”

Everyone felt that there was not anyone who could say this better than Meimei Department Store’s vice president. They were rather convinced that Leng Qirui finally listened and that they would most likely succeed.

Leng Jinchen also smiled.

“Then, who do you think is the most suitable to be the CEO?” Leng Qirui asked.

“We think that Vice President Leng Jinchen is the best candidate for this position. When the old chairman was still around, he asked Vice President Leng Jinchen to help manage the company. After so many years, we’re sure that Vice President Leng has a very good understanding of the company’s operations…”

“Vice President Leng, may I know how much Meimei Department Store earned in revenue in the third quarter of last year? What is the difference compared to Tianheng Holdings’ revenue? How great is the difference and where is the difference from?”

Leng Jinchen did not expect to be summoned. She was stunned for a moment before saying, “How can I remember that? I’ll only know the general amount after I check the data!”

Leng Qirui continued, “Luo Cheng, you tell them.”

“Yes.”

However, as soon as Luo Cheng stood up, Leng Jinchen immediately objected.

“Chairman, aren’t you going too far? Leng Group has always majored in three sectors—real estate, department stores, and cosmetics—as our flags.h.i.+p. There are also countless hotels and resorts under Leng Group. You want me to remember the sector’s numbers from each quarter of the year along with the numbers from other corporations. That’s impossible, isn’t it?”
