Chapter 367: Confrontation
After receiving the news, the media gathered around the Fu Corporation’s building. Fu Zhongtian hid in his room and did not go out. The media blocked all around that day, and the company’s employees were affected.
The stock market of the Fu Corporation continued to fall, falling to an all-time low. The shareholders found it hard to understand. They informed Fu Zhongtian to hold a shareholders’ meeting to resolve this matter and stabilize the Fu Corporation’s stock market.
The shareholders’ meeting made Fu Zhongtian a little flustered. He had already sent money to the female receptionist to ask her to remove the relevant posts.
However, this woman refused and insisted on a formal apology. How could Fu Zhongtian personally apologize to an ordinary employee? Therefore, the matter was not settled.
Even if he spent money to remove the trending topic, public opinion had already been created. Removing the trending topic would be of no use.
When Fu Zhongtian arrived at the shareholders’ meeting, he discovered that Zhuo Yihang was also there!
When he saw Zhuo Yihang, Fu Zhongtian could not help but frown.
“Why are you here? Didn’t I fire you?”
“I am an assistant personally recruited by President Fu. Only when President Fu gives the order can I truly resign!” Zhuo Yihang calmly replied.
“Now I am the president of the Fu Corporation. My orders are absolute! This is not the place where you can come over. Get out!”
One of the shareholders could not stand it any longer and helped to settle the matter,
“Let Assistant Zhuo stay here. He is also one of the shareholders.”
“What?!”
Fu Zhongtian’s eyes widened. How could he not know when Zhuo Yihang had received the Fu Corporation’s stock dividends?
“In the past, Assistant Zhuo came to the meeting as President Fu’s assistant and took notes. He was also one of the shareholders, but because of his outstanding abilities, President Fu asked him to be his assistant.”
That shareholder explained that Zhuo Yihang’s position here was higher than other shareholders, and he was close to Fu Jiuxiao. He knew some things that other shareholders did not know.
Zhuo Yihang was one of the founders of the Fu Corporation, so everyone respected him.
Few people knew that Zhuo Yihang was a shareholder of the Fu Corporation, and only a few founders knew.
However, why did Zhuo Yihang become a shareholder of the Fu Corporation at such a young age? It was because Zhuo Yihang’s father was also the founder of the Fu Corporation’s shareholders. After his death, he transferred all his shares to his only son, Zhuo Yihang.
Fu Zhongtian was not in the country at that time, so he naturally did not know about this matter.
Some other shareholders also just found out about it, but after thinking about it, they did not feel that it was too surprising. After all, Zhuo Yihang’s abilities were not bad. Moreover, Zhuo Yihang was good at socializing and handling the relationship with the shareholders very well.
Since the shareholders had no objections, Fu Zhongtian naturally did not dare to have any.
By the time the shareholders’meeting started, Fu Zhongtian had already felt the pressure.
“Zhongtian, what’s going on? Didn’t you say that you could improve the Fu Corporation’s stock market? Why did it fall even more severely!”
“What’s with that rumor? You have people like that around you, and you haven’t noticed it all these years?”
“This time, I want to ask you, how do you plan to solve this problem?”
One question after another landed on Fu Zhongtian, causing him to panic. However, in order to stabilize the shareholders, Fu Zhongtian had no choice but to bite the bullet.
“I’ve already fired the secretary. His matter is my fault for not recognizing him clearly, which affected the company. After a period of time, the netizens will forget about this matter. The Fu Corporation has a solid foundation, and it’s impossible for it to be destroyed because of this matter.”
Fu Zhongtian added, “I’ve also given the corresponding compensation and apology to that female employee. The company can’t possibly owe any employees, so we will definitely with them a worthy compensation.”
Fu Zhongtian’s words were quite pertinent. Many shareholders nodded. They were more concerned about the employees’ views of the company and the company’s reputation.
However, Zhuo Yihang suddenly interrupted.
“This matter has already happened. The female employee did not give a direct response, so this matter isn’t over. Moreover, this matter has already stained the Fu Corporation’s reputation!”
Fu Zhongtian’s expression was somewhat ugly. He knew that Zhuo Yihang’s arrival was not a good thing.
“Moreover, we don’t need you to explain so much right now. I just want to know how Acting President Fu plans to handle this matter. If this matter drags on for a day, the Fu Corporation will suffer a loss of tens of millions!”
Zhuo Yihang’s words hit the nail on the head, and most of the shareholders agreed with him.
There were also some shareholders who argued that this matter could not be resolved so easily. They were making things difficult for Fu Zhongtian.
It was obvious that there were some people in the Fu Corporation who were on Fu Zhongtian’s side. It seemed that he had bought a lot of connections. Zhuo Yihang remembered this and planned to explain it to Fu Jiuxiao when the time came.
