In the face of such a powerful force, Chu Ning could only accept such an unfair arrangement and treatment.
This little farce didn’t affect the rest of the lessons. The teachers conducted lessons as usual, and the students attended classes as usual. There weren’t any obvious changes in Jingyuan High School.
At the same time, an emergency meeting was held in the school’s conference room.
As usual, there were only a dozen shareholders, the principal, and other leaders. The absent shareholders were either not in M City or had other more important matters to deal with. Ye Zhen was not present that day.
“The development and expansion of Jingyuan High School requires a large investment. I think everyone here agrees on this.” The person presiding over the meeting this time was not principal Cao Bo, but a board member called Lin Lang.
As soon as he finished speaking, many of the school directors agreed with him. They were also Jingyuan High School’s investors. As for the principal and the others, they could only listen and didn’t even have the right to express their opinions.
“If you want to become a shareholder of the school, the minimum investment is 20 million. Just yesterday, someone contacted me. He said that he has high hopes for the future of Jingyuan High School and is willing to invest in our school,” Lin Lang said indifferently.
“Director Lin, that’s a good thing. I’m guessing it’s because our school won the gold…” A shareholder was excited when he heard this and was about to say that people saw the potential of Jingyuan High School and were willing to invest in it because Chu Ning had won the gold medal in the national physics competition, but he swallowed his words.
He had not forgotten how Director Ma and the others had targeted Chu Ning.
“Let’s not talk about other matters first. This Manager Zhang can fork out 50 million in cash as an investment in one go, which is enough to show that he has strong financial resources. What’s your view on this matter? Anyway, I quite agree with it, ” Lin Lang said with a smile.
He was the second largest shareholder of the school. Among the dozen or so directors gathered here for a meeting, he had contributed the most, as much as 100 million yuan.
The biggest investor of Jingyuan High School wasn’t in M City at the moment. This investor was also the founder of Jingyuan High School. He had the highest authority because his investment share was 200 million yuan.
However, he rarely showed up in the school meetings. Director Lin was the one who usually made important decisions. His appearance meant that the school was at a critical moment.
Lin Lang’s meaning was very clear. He was very much in favor of this unfamiliar Manager Zhang’s investment in Jingyuan High School.
“Since Director Lin has spoken, I, Old Ma, will be the first to support you.” Director Ma, who had targeted Chu Ning first, was the first to respond.
“I support it.”
“I don’t have any objections.”
“Since Mr. Lin has spoken, I have to show my support. This is also a good thing for Jingyuan High School!”
“I agree!”
…
All the directors agreed with Lin Lang’s words and had no objections.
No one was willing to oppose Lin Lang. This was a good thing for them, not to mention that Lin Lang had personally spoken.
Principal Cao Bo looked at the scene in front of him and could not help but feel emotional.
He and the school leaders around him didn’t even have the right to speak.
In essence, they were just tools for the school board members to help them manage Jingyuan High School. They were salaried workers, and the shareholders were the ones who paid them.
This was the power of capital.
No matter how outstanding Chu Ning was, as long as she was still in school, she would have to accept Yang Feng’s sanctions.
“Principal and vice-principal, what do you think? Let us know. After all, the school is managed by you,” Lin Lang said generously.
“We have no objections either. We’ll just follow Mr. Lin’s arrangements,” Principal Cao Bo immediately responded.
“What’s the use of me not agreeing? Even these board members dare not go against you, let alone me,” Cao Bo complained helplessly inside.
“Alright, since no one has a differing opinion, does that mean that everyone has agreed? This makes me feel a little embarrassed. After all, I’m holding this meeting because I want you to express your opinions.” Lin Lang said modestly.
“If that’s the case, then we’ll do it here tomorrow morning. When Manager Zhang comes to sign the contract, every single one of you have to come. This way, we’ll show our sincerity, right? I’m saying this in advance, everyone has to come. If you don’t come, you’re not giving me, Lin Lang, respect! Alright, that’s all for this meeting!”
