Chapter 305: Successful Stratagem (2)
“I’m just trying to pick up something nice to listen to and think about something nice. Otherwise, I would have been shocked to death by the board meeting over and over again.” Lu Manman smiled innocently, but her words were extremely sarcastic, mocking Wei Guoqing’s disdain for her.
“Lu Manman!”
“Director Wei, everyone!” Lu Manman got up from her seat and said very seriously, “Three months is not long, and everyone can see if three months will have any effect. I’m a newcomer, and I know that you all doubt my capabilities, and I know that my occasional actions will make everyone worry. But please give the younger generation some time. It’s not that I’m unwilling to participate in the board meeting, or that I don’t want to listen to your opinions, but three months isn’t long. I hope that I can have less time to face your doubts and have more time to deal with my work matters instead. Three months later, I, Lu Manman, will do as I say!”
At this point, the other board members felt that they had been pushing Lu Manman a little too hard recently.
If it had been anyone else, they might have broken down long ago.
The board member, Sun Xiaohe, suddenly said, “Old Wei, that’s enough. Lu Manman is still young, and we’ve all grown up together since we were young. We’re just making things difficult for her. It’s only for three months anyway, so let’s do it in three months!”
Lu Manman was a little shocked that someone from the board of directors was suddenly speaking up for her.
Sun Xiaohe really could not stand seeing Wei Guoqing force her.
Wei Guoqing’s expression darkened. “How could you say that I’m making things difficult for her? I’m just taking responsibility for the company.”
“As the saying goes, each new generation excels the previous. If we don’t give the latter a chance, how are we going to let them beat us and start all over again? We’re already so old. Are we really not going to admit defeat?! Alright, since it’s three months, let’s do it then. I don’t want to keep making things difficult for a young lady!” another board member, Cheng Huiju, said.
All of a sudden, Wei Guoqing became a villain.
His expression darkened with anger, and he glared at her. He was about to say something when…
Lu Zishan cleared his throat and said, “I’m not protective of her, and I’m not asking her to do whatever she wants in the company just because she’s my daughter. Although Lu Manman hasn’t done anything so far, she’s at least progressing in the direction we want. The process was a little messy and unexpected, but there will be an outcome eventually. Hence, before the results are out, there’s no need for the board of directors to question her about what she’s doing and whether there’s something wrong with her way of doing things! Since we’ve agreed to give her three months, we have to abide by our promise. Hence, I hereby announce that from today onwards, the board of directors will no longer participate in all of Lu Manman’s marketing plans, decisions, and direction in Lu Firm for the next three months. We won’t hold a board meeting solely because of Lu Manman as that will inconvenience the board of directors as well. In three months, according to the outcome, the board of directors will make the final decision on her!”
His words were firm and irrefutable.
Wei Guoqing was still a little angry. There were always people on his side during the board meeting, but he was being isolated today. He even appeared petty for having made things difficult for a silly girl.
He was a little unhappy but could not say anything at this point. If he continued, he would be embarrassing himself.
He glared at her.
He really did not believe that this silly girl would be able to do anything!
“If there’s nothing else, the meeting is adjourned,” Lu Zishan announced.
Wei Guoqing was the first to leave the boardroom. It was evident that he was not in a good mood.
