Chapter 767: Chapter 0768: Li Fei’s Classmate [3rd Update]
Ye Qiu wanted to resolve the internal troubles of the Eiffel Chain Hotel, then he must first address the issues brought by those five shareholders.
In his eyes, the instability of these five shareholders was the greatest.
Secretary Su hadn’t expected that Ye Qiu would now want to meet those five shareholders.
All she could say was, "I’ll contact them for you, but whether those five shareholders will meet with you, I don’t know?"
"Just say President Li wants to see them."
Ye Qiu said directly.
After Secretary Su had called the five shareholders individually, Ye Qiu, Xia Lan, and Luo Fei did not leave, staying right in the CEO’s office.
And just now, Vice Director of the HR Department Wang Chengcai, had only just learned that something might have happened to President Li, whether it was alive or dead, he couldn’t confirm it yet.
However, he knew that the company’s affairs in the future would definitely be related to Mrs. Li and that young man who just left.
After Wang Chengcai told Ye Qiu the HR database login website and password, he also told Mrs. Li and left.
Ye Qiu, Xia Lan, and Luo Fei waited there, and about an hour and a half later, the first shareholder arrived.
This shareholder, Feng Zhiqiang, was Li Fei’s university classmate. At the beginning of Li Fei’s business ventures, Feng Zhiqiang invested two million.
However, his shares in the hotel were less than three percent, and since he also had his own company, he only occasionally came to check on the hotel.
He hadn’t expected that Li Fei, only middle-aged, would be in trouble!
A week ago, he suddenly received a call from Secretary Su and was somewhat in disbelief, but he couldn’t fully confirm if something really had happened to Li Fei.
When he received the call just now saying that Li Fei wanted to see him, Feng Zhiqiang drove over, thinking it might really be Li Fei himself who wanted to meet him.
However, upon entering the CEO’s office just now, he only saw Li Fei’s bodyguard Luo Fei, Li Fei’s wife Xia Lan, Secretary Su, and a plainly dressed young man.
Feng Zhiqiang naturally recognized Xia Lan, and they often met because Feng Zhiqiang frequently visited their home for meals with Li Fei.
Upon entering, Feng Zhiqiang did not see Li Fei, but upon seeing these people, he greeted them first, "Sister-in-law, you’re here?"
Li Fei was a year or two older than Feng Zhiqiang, so according to seniority, he indeed should call Xia Lan ’sister-in-law’.
That’s how he usually addressed her.
"Where is Old Li?"
After Feng Zhiqiang sat down, he asked again.
Xia Lan said, "Li Fei is in trouble, and from now on, I’ll be responsible for the company."
"Sister-in-law, what happened to Old Li?"
Feng Zhiqiang asked.
A week ago, Secretary Su had only called him, saying that President Li might be in trouble, but he still wasn’t clear about what exactly had happened.
If Li Fei was just injured or sick, that would be one thing; the hotel management would definitely not have a problem. However, if Li Fei was no more, and now the company fell into Xia Lan’s hands, then that was a big issue.
Back then, Xia Lan was Li Fei’s secretary, but later, after Xia Lan became pregnant, she stopped coming to the company. So, in Feng Zhiqiang’s view, Xia Lan had no management ability at all, not even any management experience.
But, as a shareholder of the Eiffel Chain Hotel, seeing the hotel developing better and better, he certainly harbored some ideas.
However, over the years, he had always wanted to increase his shares in the hotel, but Li Fei never agreed again.
Of course, given the current development and turnover of the hotel, if it really went public, he would earn back hundreds of times his investment.
Seeing that Xia Lan remained silent and looked quite upset, Feng Zhiqiang guessed a bit of it.
While Feng Zhiqiang was talking to Xia Lan, Ye Qiu had been observing this shareholder. The man appeared to be about the same age as Li Fei but did not possess Li Fei’s seasoned demeanor. Moreover, there was an air of a wealthy second generation about him, even though he was already over forty. His entire outfit was branded, all of which even Ye Qiu had seen in shopping centers in Paris. The gold-wire glasses he wore, the clothes he dressed in, the Swiss gold watch he sported, and even the men’s cologne he used—all indicated a certain rich second-generation vibe about him.
Moreover, just before Feng Zhiqiang had come over, Xia Lan had already briefly introduced him to the identities of those five shareholders.
If he was not mistaken, this somewhat portly middle-aged man in front of him was Feng Zhiqiang.
"If I’m not mistaken, you are one of the company’s shareholders, Feng Zhiqiang, and also Li Fei’s college classmate,"
Ye Qiu said.
"You are?"
Feng Zhiqiang asked curiously.
He indeed was Li Fei’s college classmate, but ten years ago, his family was already very well-off. His maternal grandparents had government backgrounds, and his parents were business people in the south who had made a substantial amount of money.
However, more than ten years ago, he managed to invest two million to help Li Fei, which was indeed not simple.
But why did his investment of two million end up with less than three percent of the shares? That was because he initially had around thirty percent of the shares, which were gradually bought back by Li Fei. Moreover, since the hotel had not been developing well back then, he agreed when Li Fei redeemed them.
Unexpectedly, in recent years the hotel had developed very rapidly, which made Feng Zhiqiang deeply regret that he should have trusted Li Fei’s judgment and just hadn’t held on.
"This is Mr. Ye."
Xia Lan said.
Mr. Ye?
Feng Zhiqiang did not know him, nor was he aware of Ye Qiu’s relationship with Li Fei, or even with Xia Lan.
"He owns five percent of the hotel’s shares!"
Five percent?
This truly surprised Feng Zhiqiang!
Could it be that Li Fei had sold so many shares to this young man at some point, and he had been unaware, but looking at this young man’s attire seemed unlikely?
At first, he really thought Ye Qiu was a junk collector; he didn’t take Ye Qiu seriously at all. To his surprise, Ye Qiu owned more shares in the Eiffel Chain Hotel than he did.
This made Feng Zhiqiang astonished!
Just as Feng Zhiqiang was about to say something, there was a knock on the door, and the person who pushed open the door and came in was Li Fei’s other college classmate, as well as Feng Zhiqiang’s classmate, Gao Xiangyang.
Gao Xiangyang was also a college classmate of Li Fei and Feng Zhiqiang. Initially, when Li Fei was starting his business, Gao Xiangyang had joined him and had initially owned fifteen percent of the hotel shares. However, since the hotel business was poor at first, even losing money and nearly closing down, Gao Xiangyang sold most of his shares to Li Fei and then took that money to start his own business.
It was only in these recent years as Li Fei’s hotel business had been improving that Gao Xiangyang came to regret that he should not have doubted Li Fei’s capabilities, while his own company, funded by the sold shares, was still mediocre in performance.
Just a week ago, he was shocked to hear from Secretary Su that President Li might have encountered a mishap and had been in an accident.
Unexpectedly, just a while ago, Secretary Su had called him again saying that President Li had asked him to come over, so Gao Xiangyang took care of his matters and hurried over by car.
As soon as he pushed open the door and entered, he asked anxiously, "Li, I heard from Secretary Su that you had an accident? Why did you suddenly call for me?"
