Chapter 531 The dust has settled and the company has changed hands!
During this period, Zhang Yonghao, Vice President Wang, and the financial director actually had a very difficult time.
After all, anyone who suddenly loses more than 2 billion will be in a bad mood.
But when they finally made up their minds and parted ways with Chen Yan, they felt completely relieved.
For them, this was like a nightmare coming to an end.
Especially in the next few days, oil futures continued to rise, proving that there was nothing wrong with their vision. They were even happier after they realized that the problem was with Chen Yan.
After all, although it is painful to lose money, if the enemy loses more than you do, you will feel much better.
What's more, not only did they lose less than Chen Yan, but they also had a backup plan. It was very likely that they would swallow up Chen Yan's shares and kick Chen Yan out.
So, they are happier.
This also made them feel a little gloating when they talked about Chen Yan with others several times later, thinking that Chen Yan was completely defeated this time.
When the price of crude oil futures became very clear and it seemed that Chen Yan would indeed suffer huge losses, many people did agree with them.
They are described as people with great courage who decisively cut losses and throttled their own arms.
result……
When the white bear suddenly disappeared, when the world oil organization OPEC disappeared, and when oil prices began to plummet, all of this was reversed.
Looking at the curves that kept plummeting, looking at the news of crude oil futures price cuts that kept popping up online, and looking at the funds in Chen Yan's account that began to rise like a snowball...
Their faces turned green.
During these two days, the three of them held at least seven or eight small meetings and smoked at least a dozen packs of cigarettes.
Each of their hearts was filled with regret.
If there is anything more frustrating than losing money, it must be not persisting when you know you could succeed if you just persist for a few more days.
It was clearly a 100-step journey, but after taking 99 steps, he stopped at the last step and gave up.
This kind of regret is like a tide that can drown a person.
This sentiment reached its peak when someone in Hong Kong's financial circle broke the news that Chen Yan had earned 12-13 billion yuan from this futures operation.
The financial director's face turned pale and his body went cold. He looked at Zhang Yonghao with bloodshot eyes and asked, "Boss Zhang, is there any chance for us to find Chen Yan again?"
Zhang Yonghao's lips were also chapped and his eyes were dull. After hearing what the CFO said, he looked at the CFO and asked in a hoarse voice, "How do I find it?"
"What did you say to him?"
"Say he should give us some of the money?"
At this time, Vice President Wang was slumped on the sofa, already a little neurotic, and he kept muttering, "I made more than double. More than double."
"If we continue to follow Chen Yan, the 4 billion will become more than 10 billion."
"And now we only have a few billion left."
"In total... the difference is nearly ten times. The difference is more than eight billion!"
At this point, he couldn't control his emotions for a moment, "More than 8 billion! More than 8 billion in cash! How much money do the rich people on the domestic rich list have now!"
“You can all compete for the top 100!”
"And this is all cash! Cash!"
"How much money does our company have? 20 billion!"
"As a result, we actually lost half of the company in just a few days!"
After saying that, he slammed the sofa hard! It was obvious that he was extremely unwilling and regretful.
Seeing Vice President Wang's expression, the CFO licked his lips, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He looked at Zhang Yonghao expectantly again, "Mr. Zhang, do you think we really can't talk to Chen Yan?"
"He made 13 billion yuan, and we followed him in futures trading, but lost more than 2 billion yuan. Shouldn't he bear some responsibility?"
"We don't seek to earn back the 8 billion yuan."
"But can he give us some money to make back our investment?"
"For example, he could just give us the change, 200 million or 300 million. In this way, we would neither lose nor gain, and we could even make a small profit."
After hearing what the CFO said, Vice President Wang jumped up as if he had found a life-saving straw, "That makes sense!"
"He led us to trade futures. He made money, but we lost money. He must compensate us somehow."
"That makes sense, Mr. Zhang!"
After hearing what the two said, even though Zhang Yonghao felt that such an excuse was useless, he was the one who lost the most after all, so any amount he could get back was good.
So, he also thought that this was a good idea.
Moreover, he wanted more...
He said, "I think Chen Yan would definitely not agree if I just say that. But now he has won. In addition to making money, he also holds 60% of the company's shares and has become the company's major shareholder."
"I told him that we are all his die-hard fans and have always had good jobs."
"I have made many contributions to him and the company."
"It's just that now that I've lost all this money, I really don't have the heart to work."
"So, we want him to help us make up for the money we lost."
At this point, he paused and said, "As for how much to compensate, it depends on his intention."
"We can't blackmail him morally, can we?"
Hearing Zhang Yonghao's words, Vice President Wang and the Financial Director nodded quickly, "I think it's okay." "I think it's okay."...
…
Ever since Chen Yan reaped the entire Hong Kong financial circle and made more than 12 billion yuan in profit, no one has heard from him.
Those who can become rich and establish a family are all well-informed and able to adapt to the changing circumstances.
Before, Chen Yan and Zhang Yonghao were speculating in futures together, which caused a lot of noise and everyone was paying attention to these things.
And now, suddenly a black swan appears from the sky, turning the tide, and Chen Yan makes a fortune, so everyone got the news first.
Therefore, there are many people who come up to Chen Yan to get close to him, reminisce about the past, and want to get to know and cooperate with Chen Yan.
After finishing all the futures trading in his hands, Chen Yan’s landline and mobile phone have not been heard from since.
The whole process was the sound of "ding ding dong" and "ding ding dong" of the springs.
Chen Yan answered calls one after another, and then chatted casually with wealthy people he knew or didn't know.
Chen Yan felt that he had met almost all the wealthy people in Tiandu and Qindong in just one day.
However, after hanging up the phone, Chen Yan discovered that among the wealthy people in Tiandu and Qindong, there were two people who had not called him yet.
One is He Ruifeng, the other is Zhao Xuan...
It was as if they had no idea that Chen Yan had gotten through the difficult times and they didn't show any concern at all.
However, Chen Yan knew that given the amount of attention they paid to him, there was no way they didn't know.
In the past, Chen Yan would have felt that they didn't value him and didn't even call to congratulate him. But after what happened a few days ago, Chen Yan knew that maybe this was a real family...
Just as Chen Yan was thinking this, his cell phone suddenly rang again.
Chen Yan picked up the phone out of habit and answered it without even looking at the number.
Just when he was about to exchange pleasantries, Zhang Yonghao's voice rang out on the other end of the phone, "Hello, Mr. Chen?"
As Zhang Yonghao spoke, Chen Yan felt goose bumps all over his body.
Because this was the first time Chen Yan heard such a flattering voice.
He was obviously a grown man, but that kind of servility and that kind of sweet voice made Chen Yan feel creepy.
He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Yonghao coughed and said, "Nothing, I just wanted to congratulate you."
Chen Yan: …
To be honest, after fighting with Zhang Yonghao for so long, Chen Yan discovered for the first time that he didn't seem to be that annoying in normal times...
Next, Zhang Yonghao kept chatting with Chen Yan, finding all kinds of excuses like a piece of taffy. But when Chen Yan asked him what was going on, he kept talking about other things.
Chen Yan was so annoyed that if Qin Ming hadn't completed the process yet, he would have wanted to hang up Zhang Yonghao immediately.
I don’t know if he sensed Chen Yan’s impatience, but after going around in circles a few times, Zhang Yonghao finally stated his purpose.
And listening to Zhang Yonghao's shameless words,
"You led us to trade futures, and we lost money. Actually, you are also responsible."
"You've made so much money, it doesn't matter if you make a little more or a little less, otherwise you can give us the change from the 2 billion."
"We are all your most loyal subordinates, devoted and dedicated."
Chen Yan almost vomited!
Who gave Zhang Yonghao the courage to say so many shameless words?
Chen Yan led him to trade futures, and he lost money, so Chen Yan should be responsible? But don't forget that it was Zhang Yonghao who wanted to withdraw, and Chen Yan never persuaded him.
Moreover, Chen Yan made money, what does it have to do with him? He actually asked Chen Yan to give him money.
And...a fraction of 2 billion?
Who gave him the face to say such a thing? How much money did Zhang Yonghao have in total? More than 2 billion yuan was just a small amount.
What is even more regrettable is the "loyalty".
Chen Yan just learned from Zhao Xuan that Zhang Yonghao had just betrayed him. Including this time, Zhang Yonghao has defected to Chen Yan's enemies for the third time in a row!
Chen Yan felt that this guy really redefined what loyalty meant!
Only he could say such shameless words.
Therefore, Chen Yan rejected it directly and mercilessly, "Mr. Zhang, I think your considerations are a bit too idealistic."
"At the beginning, I gave you the opportunity to make money, but you didn't seize it. "
"It's not appropriate for me to make up for you now."
Chen Yan's answer obviously did not surprise Zhang Yonghao.
He was able to make the call because the three of them had already thought of the appropriate wording.
So he coughed and said, "Mr. Chen, we can understand your choice."
"However, the three of us lost money and we really have no intention of working."
"We didn't have much money to begin with, and now we've lost all our capital. How can we possibly bear it?"
"If we don't have the heart to work, the company's development will stagnate."
“As a company’s growth stagnates, its valuation will decrease.”
"You are now a major shareholder of the company."
"Tell me, after all this calculation, which kind of loss is greater?"
Chen Yan was stunned when he heard Zhang Yonghao's words, "Are you threatening me?"
Zhang Yonghao quickly denied it on the other end of the phone, "I didn't do that, Mr. Chen. I just stated a possible fact."
Chen Yan laughed when he heard Zhang Yonghao's words.
He said, "Zhang Yonghao, you are really...using all the despicable means now."
Zhang Yonghao coughed and said, "Boss Chen, I have no choice but to do this. We really don't want to work."
Just as Zhang Yonghao was speaking, Chen Yan's phone suddenly vibrated.
Chen Yan picked it up and saw that he had received a WeChat message from Qin Ming.
He clicked on it and saw Qin Ming sending him a message:
[Brother Chen, the notary office has already notarized it. The 5% of the shares are now yours! ]
Seeing this WeChat message, Chen Yan couldn't help but shake his head.
It is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.
Maybe, even God can't stand Zhang Yonghao, this traitor.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan cleared his throat and said to Zhang Yong, "Zhang Yonghao, since you have always said that you have no intention of working, I will not force you."
"Please take the initiative to resign from the position of general manager."
"I'll give you, Vice President Wang, and the Financial Director a vacation."
"Please put aside your work for now."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Zhang Yonghao smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I will not resign."
"After all, the company is my life's work. Even if I'm not doing well, I don't want to leave the company."
Chen Yan said, "Now it's not a question of whether you want to or not."
"If you are unwilling to resign voluntarily, then for the sake of the company's development, I can only request to convene a board meeting and remove you from your position as general manager."
Zhang Yonghao had obviously guessed what Chen Yan would say. He said nonchalantly, "Mr. Chen, changing the general manager of the company is a major matter. Although I am not a major shareholder now, our management holds more than 35% of the shares and has a veto power."
Chen Yan smiled and said, "Really? You are over 35%. How come I didn't know that?"
"I just calculated that I own more than 65% of the shares."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Zhang Yonghao burst out laughing, "Mr. Chen, what kind of joke are you talking about..."
After saying this, he was about to make a few sarcastic remarks.
As a result, at this moment, he froze as if he had suddenly guessed something.
After a moment, he lost his voice and asked, "How did you get that 5% stake?"
Chen Yan smiled and said, "Where else can it be from? Didn't you sell it to Zhao Qingtian?"
Zhang Yonghao was quiet again for a long, long time.
After a while, he seemed to have "guessed" everything and said in horror, "Are you and Zhao Qingtian actually in the same group?!"
"You set up this scheme just to take the company away from me?!"
"You are too cruel!"
Seeing Zhang Yonghao's misunderstanding, Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, but suddenly felt that this development seemed quite interesting.
This might cause some interesting troubles for Zhao Qingtian.
So he smiled and said, "So what if you guessed it, now all the shares are in our hands."
"Zhang Yonghao, you have to accept defeat. Stop whining like a defeated dog."
"The moment you betrayed me in the first place, you were doomed to this outcome."
After saying that, Chen Yan hung up the phone in a cool manner, no longer paying attention to Zhang Yonghao's greetings from Zuan on the other end of the phone...
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan was not idle either, but called Qin Ming directly.
When the call was connected, Chen Yan didn't say hello or chat, he just said one sentence, "Let's do it."
That afternoon, Qin Ming, who received the order, took his men directly to Toutiao Technology, and then took the power of attorney given by Chen Yan and forcibly convened an interim board meeting.
At the board meeting, Qin Ming wanted to remove Zhang Yonghao, but was strongly opposed by Zhang Yonghao and the directors who were close to him.
Therefore, Qin Ming directly used his absolute controlling stake of more than 65% to re-elect the board of directors.
Moreover, he ruthlessly kicked out all of Zhang Yonghao's die-hard supporters who had just been tested.
Afterwards, Chen Yan became the chairman of the company, and He Mengxue, Pang Wenbo and other people became directors of the company.
After the board of directors was elected, Qin Ming convened an interim board meeting again and again proposed to remove Zhang Yonghao, the company's former chairman and current general manager.
This time, because they were all his own people, he achieved his goal as he wished.
At this point, Zhang Yonghao was completely removed from Toutiao Technology.
Apart from the few Toutiao shares he still holds, he no longer has any relationship with Toutiao Technology.
As for this part of the shares, Chen Yan can completely dilute them all by any method he wants...
After kicking Zhang Yonghao out, Qin Ming became the general manager and CEO of Toutiao Technology as originally planned, and became the actual manager of Toutiao Technology.
At this time, the prestige he had established in the company and the connections he had won over the past few months had taken effect.
After the initial panic, the employees gradually calmed down.
After Zhang Yonghao's group of die-hard supporters were cleared out, Qin Ming also replaced all the people he had discovered and recruited, without affecting the operation of the company.
So, after a few days of running-in, Toutiao Technology was soon running smoothly again.
And when all the dust settled, the outcome of this internal company fight began to gradually become known.
No one expected that the two people who were originally "close" enough to trade futures together would suddenly reveal their true colors.
Moreover, no one expected that Zhang Yonghao, the founder of Toutiao Technology, would be kicked out without any resistance.
As more and more things were revealed, and as Chen Yan was shocked to make billions by speculating in oil futures, the impact of this incident gradually began to spread...
