Chapter 169 Establishing Authority, the Domineering Ningning!
Chapter 169 Establishing Authority, the Domineering Ningning!
Su Hanzhou is 26 years old this year.
She is 23 years old.
She and Su Hanzhou are only three years apart in age.
A three-year age gap between a man and a woman is considered the most compatible.
But Jiang Ning is only 20 years old.
It is clear.
Madam Shi is biased.
She never had a thought for her granddaughter.
She will only ever see Jiang Ning!
Whether in the past or now.
Tang An felt increasingly distressed, wishing that Old Madam Shi would die immediately.
Shi Nanyue narrowed her eyes. "Your maternal grandmother has been biased for a long time. But so what if she arranged a marriage between Su Hanzhou and Jiang Ning? How could a big shot like Su Hanzhou from the United States possibly be interested in a divorced country girl like Jiang Ning?"
"An'an, don't worry. You're so outstanding. As long as you perform well tomorrow, Su Hanzhou will be yours for the taking!"
Her daughter.
Even with a limp, he's still a million times better than Jiang Ning.
A smug look flashed in Tang An's eyes. "Mom, don't worry, I'll definitely do my best tomorrow and won't let you down."
Shi Nanyue nodded, her face full of pride.
Ding dong.
Just then, Shi Nanyue received a text message on her phone.
She opened her phone, and after seeing the text message, she frowned slightly.
Seeing that his mother's expression was not good, Tang An asked curiously, "Mom, what's wrong? What did the text message say?"
"It's nothing," Shi Nanyue said, turning off her phone. "Just spam."
Although Shi Nanyue's expression seemed a little unnatural, Tang An didn't think much of it.
Soon, we arrived at the hospital entrance.
The mother and daughter had just arrived at the hospital entrance when Tang Gaoyi had already driven up and parked the car.
Upon seeing the two approaching, Tang Gaoyi immediately got out of the car and opened the door.
Got in the car.
Tang An then remembered something and asked, "Mom, where's Grandma? Why didn't she come?"
It was one thing for the old lady not to visit him while he was hospitalized.
She's about to be discharged from the hospital, but there's still no sign of Madam Shi.
How could anyone be so biased?
A sinister glint flashed in Shi Nanyue's eyes. "Your maternal grandmother took Jiang Ning to the Shi Group. How could she possibly remember you, her granddaughter?"
Tang An's eyes widened, her face filled with a sense of crisis. "Is she going to announce to the board that Jiang Ning is the heir to the Shi Group?! What do I do, Mom?! Jiang Ning is about to take away what belongs to me!"
She can only be the heir to the Shi Group!
Who does Jiang Ning even belong to?
Shi Nanyue smiled slightly and patted Tang An's hand. "Don't worry, An'an, no one can take your things away. I've already spoken to the board of directors. It won't be so easy for Jiang Ning to become the heir to the Shi Group!"
Even without considering the large number of people on the board of directors, Zhang Liyan alone is enough to give Jiang Ning a hard time.
--
Shi Group.
Standing at the head of the table, Madam Shi said, "Good morning, shareholders. As we all know, our Shi family has found its sole heir. This morning, I would like to formally introduce to you the future heir of the Shi Group, my granddaughter Shi Sheng. Starting today, she will officially join the Shi Group and will gradually take over my work."
After saying that, Madam Shi turned to look at the doorway and said, "Shengbao, come in."
Jiang Ning stepped inside.
Almost as soon as she entered, sarcastic remarks rang out from the audience.
"This young girl with yellow hair can take over Chairman Shi's job?"
"That's it!"
"This is far too hasty!"
"..."
Jiang Ning seemed oblivious to the discussions, walking step by step to the head of the conference table. She leaned slightly forward, adjusted the microphone, and spoke with a casual yet powerful aura. "Hello everyone, I am Shi Sheng. I hope that in the future, we can advance and retreat together with all of you elders."
Standing together through thick and thin?
Upon hearing Jiang Ning's words, one of the shareholders sitting closest to the head of the table burst out laughing, his mockery almost undisguised.
He looked at Madam Shi and then said, "Chairman Shi, I understand your feelings, but the matter of succession is no small matter; it concerns the future survival of our Shi Group! It's not that I look down on Miss Shi, but although she is your granddaughter, she is still young and has no management experience whatsoever. I'm afraid she is not up to the task!"
This person is Zhang Liyan, who is not only the largest shareholder of Shi's Group, but also a veteran shareholder.
Upon hearing Zhang Liyan's words, the previously silent shareholders began to speak up in agreement.
Over the years, Madam Shi has rarely appeared at the Shi Group, and the shareholders mostly follow Zhang Liyan's lead.
"Chairman Zhang is right, Chairman Shi. Choosing a successor is no small matter; we need to consider it carefully!"
“I also think Chairman Zhang is right. Miss Shi is too young and probably not suitable to be the heir of the Shi Group!”
"Yes, yes, although Miss Shi is your granddaughter, she was just an ordinary village girl before she was found by the Shi family. What does she know about business management?"
"..."
Faced with the crowd's doubts, Jiang Ning remained completely calm and composed, speaking in a clear and crisp tone, "Young? Do you all believe that age and ability are equal?"
"Isn't that right?" Zhang Liyan looked at Jiang Ning, his eyes full of disdain.
A divorced village girl from the countryside also wants to become the successor of the Shi Group?
wishful thinking!
Jiang Ning's lips curled slightly. "Chairman Zhang, is it? You and the other shareholders are quite old, so why has the He Group stagnated all these years? It seems glorious, but in reality, it's a mess of unsavory debts!"
It was a very simple and light sentence, yet it resonated deeply.
At this point, Jiang Ning seemed to remember something and chuckled, "Oh, no, although you all haven't contributed much to the Shi Group, when it comes to falsifying accounts, if you want to claim first place, who dares to claim second?!"
Upon hearing this, the older shareholders in the audience exchanged glances, their expressions changed, and a hint of guilt flashed in their eyes.
I heard that yesterday, Madam Shi had Annie take the financial statements back to Jiang Ning to see.
Did Jiang Ning glean something from the financial statements?
But isn't she just a country girl from the countryside?
Was this young girl trying to scare them?
Correct.
That's for sure!
Zhang Liyan narrowed his eyes, a fierce glint flashing in them, and looked at Jiang Ning, "What nonsense are you spouting?!"
Zhang Liyan is a cunning old fox who has been in the business world for many years. His eyes are like knives, and he exudes a strong sense of authority. Anyone else would definitely be intimidated by his aura.
But it's a real shame.
The person standing in front of him today is Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning had seen plenty of people like Zhang Liyan.
"Nonsense?" Jiang Ning's face turned cold in an instant, as if she had become a different person. A powerful aura burst forth from her, making people dare not look directly at her. Even an old fox like Zhang Liyan was stunned for a moment. "Annie, bring over the financial statements of the Shi Group for the last quarter."
"Yes, Miss Shi."
After she finished speaking, Annie very respectfully handed over the financial statements.
Jiang Ning took the financial statements and threw them away heavily.
Snapped!
The reports were thrown directly onto the conference table, scattered around, and some even flew directly into the faces of the shareholders.
“I have marked all the problematic parts of the report,” Jiang Ning said, emphasizing each word. “I would appreciate a reasonable explanation from you all!”
Zhang Liyan immediately picked up the report.
Other shareholders also picked up the financial statements.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh--
For a moment, only the sound of flipping through reports filled the office.
Zhang Liyan stared wide-eyed in disbelief, cold sweat dripping from his forehead onto the black and white paper.
How could this be?
They made the reports look very good; not only would laymen not understand them, but even professional accountants wouldn't be able to spot any clues!
How did Jiang Ning figure that out? And why did she label the question so professionally?
The other shareholders also looked very grim; no one had expected Jiang Ning to have such abilities!
Jiang Ning stood there, her back straight, like a sturdy bamboo after the rain. She didn't look like a naive young girl, but rather like a seasoned leader who had weathered many storms. Every word she spoke was full of authority: "My grandmother is old, and she has been so busy with my parents' affairs these past few years that she is exhausted and has no heart to manage the affairs of the Shi Group. But my grandmother's advanced age does not mean that our Shi family is without people!"
"I am the rightful heir to the Shi Group, so you all have no choice but to submit today!"
