Chapter 187: Chapter 187: Cleaning Up Pests

The final result was confirmed, Lin Wanqing, with 48.6% of the shares, emerged victorious, successfully retaining the Chairman position that rightfully belonged to the Lin Family.

Both Lin Wanqing and Wu Kun had joyful smiles spread across their faces.

Zhou Zheng too was smiling as he congratulated Lin Wanqing.

Through this affair, he had been unmistakably branded as part of Lin Wanqing’s faction.

In future board meetings, having the support of Zhou Zheng, the second-largest shareholder, Lin Wanqing’s influence would clearly increase significantly.

No longer would any shareholder dare to openly challenge Lin Wanqing.

Compared to the joy on Lin Wanqing’s side,

Qian Long and those shareholders who supported him looked as dejected as if they had lost their parents.

Especially Qian Long.

This loss cost him more than the Chairmanship of Lin’s Jewelry; his own Hua Tian Jewelry would also be taken by Zhao Min.

So now, Qian Long faced the crisis of bankruptcy.

Once Hua Tian Jewelry was lost, he would have nothing left.

In this way, his earlier statement had now come true.

He had just bet Chen Feng that if Chen possessed more than 1% of the shares, he would beg on the streets for food.

Now, this statement was about to become a reality.

Having lost everything, he really would be no different from begging on the streets.

Qian Long, looking like a soulless man with a deathly pale face, stood up from his chair and began to trudge out of the conference room.

Chen Feng glanced at the dispirited Qian Long, made no move to stop him from leaving, but gave Wu Kun a look and whispered,

"Uncle Wu, follow him in the car. After his loss, he will surely seek out the person behind this. Tail him and find out who that person really is; we must know who it is to take the initiative, otherwise, we will always be stuck defending passively!"

"Got it," Wu Kun nodded, then quietly followed behind Qian Long, also leaving the conference room.

Once the two of them had left, Chen Feng turned to Lin Wanqing with a smile and said, "Sister Qing, my congratulations!"

"Chen Feng, I really owe you for this one. Had it not been for you, defeat was certain!" Lin Wanqing said with a face full of gratitude.

"I’ve only done what was necessary, and besides, we’re all family here—no need to stand on ceremony!" Chen Feng said with a smile, waving his hand dismissively.

"Okay! Chen Feng, once I’ve dealt with the remaining company affairs, and when things settle down here, we’ll go home and have a proper talk!" Lin Wanqing nodded in agreement.

Although the Chairman position had been secured, the issue with the counterfeit goods had not yet been fully resolved.

And the question of how to deal with those shareholders who supported Qian Long was giving Lin Wanqing a headache.

After all, a significant portion of those shareholders were the company’s elder statesmen.

If the Lin Family moved against them directly, it would seem as though they were too callous, and such actions would have a terribly negative impact on the Lin Family’s reputation.

But if they didn’t take action, these shareholders, who had already shown disloyalty once, could not be trusted not to do so again.

Keeping them in the company was like keeping a time bomb; it was simply too unsafe.

This weighed heavily on Lin Wanqing.

Chen Feng of course noticed the trace of concern in Lin Wanqing’s beautiful eyes and said with a smile,

"Sister Qing, some people must be dealt with decisively when the time comes. Otherwise, if they stay, they will always be the company’s parasites. It’s better to cut them off early."

After saying this, Chen Feng turned his head and cast a cold glance at the shareholders who had supported Qian Long during the meeting.

Chen Feng’s icy gaze sent an involuntary shiver down their spines, and they felt as though they were being watched by an ancient, fierce beast.

The look in his eyes was so chilling that it made their skin crawl.

Fortunately, Chen Feng only glanced at them before looking away.

Otherwise, some of them would probably have been scared enough to wet their pants.

"En, I understand. This time, I definitely won’t go easy!" Lin Wanqing nodded with a determined face.

It was clear she had made up her mind to take action against the shareholders who supported Qian Long.

Even if they were corporate veterans, they needed to be cleansed from the company.

Spoiled flesh would only attract flies, so a swift and decisive cut was the most appropriate action.

Afterward, Chen Feng and Zhou Zheng left the company together.

Lin Wanqing stayed behind to carry out a thorough cleansing of the shareholders.

Chen Feng and Zhou Zheng exited the company and didn’t stop until they reached the parking lot outside of Fenglei Building.

"Mr. Chen, I owe you a big favor for helping me and my son this time. I’ll be sure to repay you handsomely in the future!" Zhou Zheng looked at Chen Feng with a face full of gratitude.

"Vice President Zhou, you and I both belong to Lin’s Jewelry Company, and by all rights, we are one family. There’s no need for a grand reward. I just hope that in the future, you can assist Sister Qing well in managing the company. That would be the best way to repay me," Chen Feng said with a light smile.

"Rest assured, Mr. Chen, I will definitely support the chairman properly!" Zhou Zheng promised.

"En, then I’m heading home. I’ve been running around all night; I am indeed quite tired now!" Chen Feng yawned and then turned to walk towards his Audi A6 parked not far away.

Watching Chen Feng leave, Zhou Zheng nodded and mumbled to himself, "Mr. Chen truly is a divine doctor... His indifference to fame and fortune is truly admirable."

...

Back in the Audi, Wang Hao was sound asleep in the passenger seat.

After all, like Chen Feng, from rescuing Zhou Hai last night in Donggang to seeing him safely home, he had not slept a wink.

It was only while Chen Feng had gone up to the company that he managed to snatch a few moments of sleep.

Chen Feng, looking at the sleeping Wang Hao, shook his head with a smile. He didn’t wake him but simply fastened his seatbelt, started the car, and drove towards Wang Hao’s home.

Wang Hao’s home was in a dilapidated neighborhood far from the city center.

The buildings here were many years old, and many had visible cracks, looking worn and dilapidated.

The environment in the neighborhood was filthy and disorderly.

There was no greenery at all, and the place was littered with trash that reeked, surrounded by buzzing flies.

Bicycles and electric scooters were haphazardly parked everywhere, some blocking pathways to the point that they were impassable.

Yet despite this, there was no property management to speak of.

The difference between this neighborhood and the upscale ones in the city center was like night and day, simply incomparable.

But there was no choice; in Coastal City, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, only those without money had to live here; any other place was simply out of the question.

Chen Feng’s Audi A6 immediately attracted attention the moment it appeared at the entrance of the neighborhood.

After all, in this neighborhood, those who could afford a car were in the minority, and even if there were a few wealthy people, they had long since moved away. The rest mostly only owned electric bicycles.

Therefore, Chen Feng’s Audi A6’s presence was quite the spectacle.

In their eyes, it was absolutely a luxury car.
