The people of the Zhou family became quiet, and the Zhou family's family tradition was quite strict, so no one dared to be so presumptuous in front of the old man, so everyone quieted down and returned to their original positions.
Zhou Wutian saw Lin Yu, he nodded slightly to Lin Yu, and then he was helped to sit in the middle of the conference room.
"I have something important to announce today." Zhou Wutian glanced around and said, "I'm very pleased that everyone can take the time to come here despite his busy schedule."
"Grandpa, this is what it should be." Zhou Xiangyang said: "You old man has something important to announce. Even if we are busy, we still have to rush back. Moreover, we are all a family. We haven't seen each other for such a long time, so we should take advantage of the opportunity."
This is an opportunity to get together."
Zhou Wutian nodded, stood up, sighed and said, "I'm old."
The entire conference room was silent. When Zhou Wutian said this sentence, "I am getting old," everyone felt shocked. Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Sure enough, this old man was going to announce his retirement.
Otherwise, his opening remarks would never have been that I am getting old.
"Grandpa, you are always going strong." Zhou Xiangyang said again.
"No, getting old is getting old. You have to admit this. Now I am really not able to do some things well." Zhou Wutian sighed and said, "So I am no longer suitable for this position.
It’s time to hand over the position to young people.”
"Old man, you are still in good health. Isn't it a little early to announce these things now?" The person who spoke was Friday, who was also Zhou Xiangyang's father.
In fact, he knew that it was ninety percent likely that the old man would be the one to step aside this time, and it was his son Zhou Xiangyang. What he said was nothing more than words of comfort.
Everyone knows that the old man does not want to step down from this position now, so sometimes, superficial work still needs to be done.
"And young people who are impatient may not be suitable for this position, so the old man still needs to teach for a few more years." Friday said with a smile, and he almost mentioned his son's name.
"Haha, Wu, I know better than you how my body is doing." Zhou Wutian smiled and said, "As I get older, my thinking is not flexible, and my ability to accept new things is not as good as before."
"Young people are different. They are energetic, bold, and dare to try. I think some of you here have already seen that the development of our Zhou family has encountered a bottleneck, so there must be a new leader to lead everyone.
Go on and keep fighting.”
"Old man, do you already have someone in mind?" Friday asked impatiently.
"Someone has been selected." Zhou Wutian nodded and said: "Now, please invite the new head of the Zhou family to say a few words to everyone, Yingying, come here, this position is yours."
The applause in the conference room just started, but it quickly stopped. The smiles of everyone present froze on their faces. They dug their ears hard, wondering if they heard wrongly.
"Zhou Ying? How could it be Zhou Ying? Am I dreaming?"
"Old man, you probably mispronounced the name."
But something happened that made their hearts sink. Zhou Ying stood up, walked to the center of the conference table, and sat down.
This sounded like a depth charge in everyone's ears, and everyone couldn't calm down anymore.
The one who was most severely bombed was Zhou Xiangyang. He had already stood up and was ready to speak to everyone with great ambition.
And he has already made plans for the future. He feels that he must make some achievements in the Zhou family and use thunderous means to shock some restless people in the Zhou family.
He was fully prepared, but unfortunately things were not as he expected, and today's result was beyond his expectation.
He watched Zhou Ying sit down calmly, and watched the old man give in. He had an unreal feeling that he was in a dream. He pinched himself hard, and then he felt a heartbreaking feeling.
Lung-like pain.
Yes, it hurts. This is enough to prove that he is not dreaming now, and everything in front of him is really happening.
"Zhou Ying, how could it be Zhou Ying?" Wu Wu stood up angrily and stared at Zhou Liang and his wife.
Zhou Liang and his wife were also confused, especially Zhou Liang. He never expected that this daughter, whom he had always looked down upon or even ignored, would be chosen by the old man as his next successor.
He really wanted to catch the old man and ask him carefully if he had made a mistake.
"That's right, it's Yingying." Zhou Wutian sat at the bottom of the conference table and said calmly: "From now on, Zhou Ying will take over all the operations of the Zhou family's industries, equity distribution, financial power, and personnel appointments and removals."
Mr. Zhou's words made everyone present feel a chill in their hearts. Only they knew how much they looked down on Zhou Ying in the past.
Now that the old man's words have been made clear, from now on, Zhou Ying will control all the power of the Zhou family. Thinking about what they did in the past, most people now lower their heads with guilty conscience.
"I don't agree." Zhou Xiangyang couldn't keep his calm anymore. He stood up and shouted: "I don't agree."
"I don't agree either."
"And I."
"Yes, why? She is a woman, and she is an illegitimate daughter. Why should she be the head of the Zhou family?"
After a moment of calm, there was a loud explosion in the room. Everyone was angry and resentful. They couldn't accept this fact. Why should Zhou Ying be the head of the family? She was just an illegitimate daughter.
How does she have the ability to be the head of the family? She has never even stayed in the Zhou family for a few days, so what qualifications does she have?
"If you disagree, stand up." Zhou Ying raised his head and glanced around: "Let me see who you are."
"I just stood up, what can you do to me?"
"Yes, and me."
"I'm not convinced either, you're just an illegitimate daughter."
In an instant, seven or eight unconvinced people in the room stood up, including Zhou Ying's contemporaries and her elders.
"Well, the Zhou family has now officially established the Zhou Group. Since you have stood up, you will not have any share in the shares after the reorganization. The meeting I am temporarily holding for you is for people within the Zhou Group.
It's open, you can go out." Zhou Ying waved his hand and removed the seven or eight people on the list.
"Thank you all for the share reorganization. Because of your withdrawal, those who stay will get more shares." Zhou Ying said calmly.
