666 [Being a Domineering President for a Time](1/2)
Song Weiyang stayed in the capital for several days, visited several leaders around, and then convened a meeting of Ark Technology.
This meeting is not clear about the nature of it.
It is a bit like a shareholders' meeting and a bit like a board of directors, but no matter what kind of meeting it is, it is not Song Weiyang's turn to initiate it, and other shareholders need to be notified 15 days in advance in a formal manner.
After hearing the news, Li Delei was completely confused. He and his younger brother Li Dejing, one is the chairman and the other is the largest shareholder. The two of them actually got the news in the end. They came to the company early in the morning and were suddenly accused of attending the meeting. When they entered the conference room, they found something was wrong.
Song Weiyang sat in the position of the chairman with a swagger. On the left was the chairman of Zhongwei Industrial who came from Shenzhen City, on the right was the general manager of Zhongguancun Software Park Development Company, and then there were representatives of several major shareholders who were stationed in Ark Technology.
There is also Li Delei's relative Li Hongze, who was once the second largest shareholder of the predecessor of Ark Technology. In cooperation with Li Delei and Li Dejing brothers, he forced the other two shareholders to leave and is now a non-executive director of Ark Technology. Li Delei's wife, brother-in-law and sister-in-law are both executives or directors of Ark Technology.
These people were fooled to come to the meeting, especially Li Hongze, who usually doesn't work at all and only takes the position of director to get a salary. He was having fun outside when he suddenly received a call saying that he was asking him to come to the company to meet and receive the bonus immediately.
In addition, there were some listeners in the conference room: representatives sent by ministries and commissions, representatives sent by relevant banks, as well as Academician Ni, and the secretary of the city leaders.
Three trials?
Seeing that the situation was a little agitated, Li Delei immediately cheered himself up: I am the chairman, my brother is the major shareholder, and the company is registered overseas. What's so scary?
"Mr. Song, what are you doing?" Li Delei took the lead in attacking and questioned with Zhang Chou's face.
Song Weiyang immediately stood up, shook hands with Li Delei with a smile, and pushed the other party into his seat: "Chairman Li is here, please sit down and preside over the meeting, this should be your seat."
All shareholders, leaders of ministries and banks sent representatives. Li Delei did not dare to turn around directly. He sat down nervously and asked, "What was the meeting today? Why didn't I get notice in advance?"
Song Weiyang casually found a seat to sit down and said with a smile: "That's right. Ark Technology owes ICBC and CCB tens of millions. The two banks believe that Ark is unable to repay, so they notified the shareholders to discuss it together."
"This does not comply with the procedures, right? How can the bank bypass the chairman and directly seek shareholders?" Li Delei was still holding an air and insisting on himself.
The representative sent by the Ministry of Science and Technology suddenly spoke: "The Ministry believes that the funding of more than 15 million yuan for the Ark 3 project is suspected of being misappropriated by the Ark. The investigation team officially entered the Ark today. The Ark's funds were temporarily frozen, and all financial information must be handed over for review."
"You are not qualified to freeze the funds of the Ark!" Li Delei suddenly had signs of an outbreak.
The representative of ICBC smiled and said, "Sorry, we are qualified. According to national laws, the company has financial disputes with banks. The bank can apply for freezing to the court. The court approved it yesterday. In addition, the company is suspected of committing a crime, and the government or judicial authorities have the right to freeze its accounts. Ark is suspected of misappropriating project funds. The Ministry of Science and Technology can propose to freeze the accounts."
Liu Bing, chairman of Zhongwei Industrial, said: "Boss Li, given that under your leadership, Ark Technology has serious business problems, our shareholders hope that you can immediately step down as chairman."
Li Delei was already furious and stared at Liu Bing and said, "If the chairman is removed, a shareholders' meeting must be held to vote!"
"Isn't it running now?" Song Weiyang smiled.
Li Delei said quite a bachelor: "Then let's start a vote. I hold 14.9% of the shares, Dejing holds 43.79% of the shares, and our brothers' shares combined are close to 60%. I don't believe that my position as chairman will be removed!"
"Ok," Song Weiyang showed up directly, "Since you are unwilling to cooperate, let's talk about equity transfer."
"What equity transfer?" Li Delei asked.
Song Weiyang said: "I plan to buy shares of Zhongwei Industrial and Zhongsoft Institute Development Company at a premium. The two shareholders have agreed. In other words, in the future, the only shareholders of Ark will be you and me, and your brothers. The Ministry of Science and Technology wants to recover the project funds, and the bank will force you to repay the loan, and the company's account has been frozen. Can Ark survive? I don't care. I have money, no matter it is tens of millions or hundreds of millions, I can afford it. But you two brothers will probably be busy for a few years and have no choice except to apply for bankruptcy."
"The surname is Song," Li Dejing, who had not spoken, suddenly slapped the table and stood up, "What the hell do you want to do! What are the benefits of doing this?"
Song Weiyang spread his hands and smiled with a beating expression, "It's not good. But I have money. I like to buy stocks of other shareholders and use these stocks to waste. Who are you? Do you have any control? Oh, the fun of rich people is so simple and boring."
Li Delei also stood up and said to his brother, sister-in-law, and wife and uncle: "Let's go. Today's meeting does not comply with the procedures, so there is no need to continue!"
Song Weiyang smiled and said, "If you dare to step out of the conference room, it is equivalent to not eating a toast and waiting for the company to go bankrupt. The company's account and your personal account are frozen, and you don't want to take a penny away."
Li Delei stopped and turned around and asked, "Who has the right to freeze my personal account?"
Song Weiyang said: "We can call the police. It is reasonable for you to be suspected of misappropriating state funds and freezing your personal accounts. Not only do you have to freeze the account, but you also have to be arrested for investigation. You have to be investigated for half a month."
Li Delei was already a bad temper, but at this time he finally couldn't hold back and roared: "I'm a Canadian, not a Chinese, who dares to arrest me!"
"Are you a ignorant?" Song Weiyang was amused.
"!"
The representative sent by the Ministry of Science and Technology slammed the table and said a humorous sentence in an angry tone: "Don't say you are a Canadian, even if you are a Martian, you will have to be punished for committing crimes in China!"
Li Dejing was so guilty that he had no immigrants. He quickly pulled his brother's sleeve and said, "How about it, have another meeting?"
"Talk about it, don't lose your temper." Li Delei's sister-in-law and his wife's uncle hurriedly dissuaded them, and they did not immigrate.
Song Weiyang pointed at Li Dejing and said, "5 million, I will acquire all the shares in your hands. As long as you sell the shares to me, you will be financially free from now on and spend whatever you want."
"Really?" Li Dejing was immediately delighted.
Song Weiyang said: "I care about your money? You are not qualified to let me lie."
Li Dejing smiled and said, "That's right."
"Shut up!" Li Delei shouted angrily.
Although Li Dejing is the largest shareholder with a 43.79% stake, he is actually a puppet. His shares are unknown and there are other agreements behind his back. In fact, they are all held by his brother Li Delei. Ark Technology has not made any money in recent years. Li Dejing has not received a penny of dividends, so he only gets a considerable salary every month.
Now that Song Weiyang is willing to spend 5 million to buy his shares, how could Li Dejing not be tempted? Anyway, Ark Technology is about to die, and it was on the verge of bankruptcy last year. Now it has been jointly punished by multiple parties. No matter how much equity it holds, it is useless.
Li Dejing ignored his brother's reprimand and hurriedly smiled: "Boss Song, can you sign a stock transfer agreement today?"
Song Weiyang smiled and said, "It's OK now, I'll have someone draft the contract right away."
"You dare, that's my stock!" Li Delei was furious.
Li Dejing just got up with his brother on the spot and threatened: "What's your stock? I'm the largest shareholder in black and white."
"I..." Li Delei was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Song Weiyang added: "Do you have any private agreements? That thing cannot be put on the table, and maybe you will go to jail illegally."
Li Dejing advised: "Brother, just give in. Who is Mr. Song? China's richest man, the seventh richest man in the world. Can you still fight with him?"
Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Then let's continue to hold a shareholders' meeting and talk about the removal of the chairman first."
Li Dejing immediately stood beside Song Weiyang: "My 43.79% voting rights unconditionally support Mr. Song. Mr. Song said that he would dismiss anyone he wanted to dismiss, I would resolutely dismiss whom! Whoever went to find the people from the Ministry of Justice and asked them to draft the equity transfer contract quickly."
"Hahahahaha!"
Li Dejing's clown performance made a burst of laughter burst out in the conference room.
Representatives of Zhongguancun Software Park Development Company were stunned. You should know that at the end of last year, they invested 50 million yuan and only obtained 5% of the shares of Ark Technology. Now Song Weiyang spent 5 million to buy 43.79% of the shares, and the other party rushed to agree, fearing that Song Weiyang would go back on his word.
It's so nonsense!
Song Weiyang said to Li Delei: "Mr. Li, do you still need to hold a shareholders' meeting and raise your hands to vote to remove the chairman? Your younger brother Mr. Li Dejing supports the proposal for removal."
Faced with the joint efforts of multiple parties to force the palace, Li Delei was able to hold on, but behind his own brother... Well, stabbing him in front of him instantly made him lose his fighting spirit. He asked in a silence: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
Song Weiyang said: "5 million, transfer your equity to me. Ark Technology has nothing to do with you from now on."
Li Delei was so depressed that he bargained: "Brother Song, I invested more than 2 million yuan. Over the past few years, I have worked hard without credit. 5 million is too little, right?"
Song Weiyang said: "It's OK, at least the interest rate is higher than depositing the bank."
"My fuck..." Li Delei took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "I'll sell it to you for 5 million! You're ruthless!"
Song Weiyang then smiled and said, "Okay, you can leave now, there is nothing you have to do here. Remember, go back to the company to sign the equity transfer contract within three days."
Li Delei glanced at the people in the conference room and said unwillingly: "I admit defeat. Boss Song, you are amazing. We will have a date later!"
"No," said Song Weiyang.
When Li Delei left the conference room, his relatives were also bombarded. Of course, Li Dejing stayed. He is still a major shareholder now, and he is considered his own person when he turns against him in the last battle.
Song Weiyang pointed to the chairman's seat and asked the three shareholders present: "Can I do where now?"
"That should be for Boss Song to sit down." The shareholders agreed.
Song Weiyang sat in the chairperson with a steady stern and smiled: "Mr. Liu, should Zhongwei Industrial continue to hold shares or transfer the shares to me? I accept any method. If you choose to transfer the shares, then discuss the price in a formal negotiation manner."
Liu Bing laughed: "A fool sells his stocks. If you can do business with Boss Song, no one is worried that you won't find any opportunity."
"Okay," Song Weiyang faced the representative of Zhongsoft Park Development Company. "Zhongguancun sold the land to Ark Technology. I plan to build a 66-story building to build it into a landmark building in Zhongguancun, and I will personally invite Mr. I.M. Pei to design it. Is this plan OK?"
"That would be great!" said the representative of Zhongsoft Garden happily.
Liu Bing asked: "Where does the building construction fund come from?"
Song Weiyang said: "The funds for building construction are provided by Shenzhou Technology, and the money is considered to be a shareholding. Of course, it will definitely seriously dilute Mr. Liu's shares."
"I don't care." Liu Bing smiled.
Only fools objected. I.M. Pei would also be responsible for the design of a 66-story landmark building in Zhongguancun. In the future, the building will definitely be a hen that lays golden eggs.
Li Dejing suddenly asked weakly: "Mr. Song, can you leave me 5% of the shares? I will sell the remaining shares to you for 3 million. I will not hold a position in the company in the future, nor will I interfere in the company's management."
"You think beautifully," Song Weiyang couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I can leave you 1%, and 5 million won't be missing."
"Thank you, Mr. Song!" Li Dejing nodded and said. Even after the investment in Shenzhou Technology, his 1% was diluted to about nothing, and he would not have to worry about the rest of his life.
Song Weiyang continued: "We will solve everything together. Let's talk about Ark chips next. Please avoid it, several friends from the bank."
Representatives of the two banks immediately stood up and shook hands and said goodbye to Song Weiyang with a smile.
After Song Weiyang waited for them to leave, he continued: "Facts have proved that there is no market for NC machines in China, and it is difficult to sustain NC chips. Director Liu, Ark Technology refunded the funds of more than 15 million yuan and also withdrew from the 863 plan. Is it OK?"
"It can be gradually faded, but it should not withdraw immediately. After all, you should pay attention to the influence of public opinion." Director Liu said.
Song Weiyang nodded and said, "I understand."
Academician Ni suddenly interrupted: "Xiao Song, you have the funds and strength, why don't you continue to do it?"
Song Weiyang said: "I chose to make embedded chips for NC machines in order to bypass the barriers of the Winter Alliance. In recent years, Academician Ni has also seen that people directly use the server, making our NC machines unable to be used normally. The original intention of Ark chips is to be safe and autonomous. Can they be independent if they continue to do it? Can they be safe? After making chips, they need to make supporting systems, systems, and software, and custom machines. These problems can be overcome, but do you have to make servers by yourself in the future?"
"It's not impossible." Academician Ni's tone was a little disappointed.
To be continued...
