Chapter 1602 Is It All a Joke?
Thanks to DGcyc for the 1600 rewards, a5s5 for the 200 rewards, and YYren for the 100 rewards.

"Here, I would like to announce the authorization to withdraw the voting rights of Li's shares." Mary wanted to see everyone's shocked expressions.
In fact, she did get her wish, and the directors were discussing in whispers.
This satisfied Mary, and she would announce her second decision: "Make necessary adjustments to the high-level structure of Fuguo."
"The company's development is changing with each passing day, and we must also keep pace with the times in terms of management. It's time to make some changes instead of being complacent and waiting to be eliminated."
Mary's reasoning sounded unassailable, which is exactly what she wanted.
"I agree with Madam Chairman." Davis' representative was the first to agree.
This surprised Juliana, she didn't expect the other party to make such a quick decision.
It's like the other party already knows what's going to happen before the meeting and makes a decision in advance.
Dick's representative didn't hesitate, and said immediately afterwards; "I agree."
Two votes out of four, plus Mary's own vote, allowed her proposal to pass.
"Regarding the adjustment of new personnel appointments, I hope that the personnel department can provide a list as soon as possible for the board of directors to discuss and decide." Davis' representative seems to be jumping to the next topic.
However, Mary didn't want to expose it so easily.
"I have looked at the performance of the loan department in the past two years. In my opinion, it is too conservative. Therefore, I think we should start with it."
This was already an undisguised target, and Mary looked directly at Juliana, sending out a bad signal.
Yes, she was telling the other person clearly, 'I'm coming, whether you're ready or not. '
Juliana was caught off guard. She really didn't expect Mary's reaction to be so strong and excessive.
But she's never been one to take it easy. "I think Ms. Mary should turn a few more pages so she can see more data."
"For example, the stable growth rate of annual revenue, the continuously reduced bad debt ratio, the increase in our credit and the number of major customers..."
To wipe out her contribution to the company in general, Juliana will not allow this to happen.
"Yes, but we have been unable to keep up with the planned development plan, and your actions are too slow." Mary did not rush to refute, but lightly pointed out her mistake.
Although, this wasn't really her problem, or even a mistake.
But when it is raised at this time, the timing becomes extremely delicate.
"Flaws can't hide their strengths. No one can be 100% perfect. Besides, I don't think it's a mistake!" Juliana said with a smile.
"So?" Mary made a gesture of invitation, gesturing for her to continue.
"Actually, I have always been puzzled by the company's plan. Now is the time when we need to be steady and steady. Why is there such an urgency?"
"Looking at Wall Street, and even the world, we are all huge financial giants." Juliana said with a smile and spread her hands; "Maybe I should add... one of them humbly?"
"No, I don't think there is any need to be humble at this time." The directors smiled and shook their heads. Now is not the time to express humility.
"So... Now that we have achieved this step, we should proceed steadily. Why rush to develop? No one can predict the risks involved."
"Let alone assume it. Once something goes wrong, I don't think anyone will be able to take responsibility for it."
Both are exercising restraint so that the conflict does not escalate into an unmanageable situation.
It's just that things have gone out of control from the very beginning.
"We agree with Mary's suggestion." The speeches of the two representatives made Juliana pale, and she found that things were getting out of control again.
This is aimed at, they have already prepared, it is a trap specially aimed at themselves.
Juliana became so passive that she seemed to be the ostracized outsider in the Supreme Council.
But soon things turned around. After being inexplicably 'removed' from the position of loan manager, a new appointment fell on her head.
"Julianna will be the Minister of Strategic Development." Dick's representative first proposed.
"Agreed." Davis' representative followed suit.
Naturally, Juliana would not let go of this opportunity. With two votes of support plus her own vote, the post of 'Minister of Strategic Development' became a certainty.
The Strategic Development Department is the latest new department established by the group, and it has greater power than before.
Because the strategic development department is responsible for the strategic development direction of the entire group, it can put forward opinions on all departments of the group and even intervene in specific affairs.
But to their discomfort, the boardroom had gotten out of control.
The matter completely exceeded their expectations. Dick and Davis, who were not present, seemed to be the key figures behind the board's every move.
Every proposal and every decision they made seemed to be within their expectations.
To make matters worse, the candidate for the new manager of the loan department was proposed by Davis' representative and Dick agreed.
Juliana and Mary froze, unsure whether to disagree or approve.
The crux of the problem lies in the meaning behind 'approval' or 'rejection'.
"I agree." Juliana agreed, beckoning to them before Mary did.
Because she needs to pay for the previous favor.
Whatever Davis and Dick were scheming, their backing got Juliana the head of strategic development.
That was the most important thing, and Juliana couldn't forget that.
The most helpless person on the scene was the Minister of Personnel. All their rights were completely deprived by the Supreme Council.
So, should the Ministry of Personnel continue to nominate, or just listen to the orders of the Supreme Committee.
Today's meeting was very weird, as if a pair of big hands that no one could see were manipulating everything in the dark.
It didn't occur to Mary and Juliana at first, what the hell was going on?
But soon they had an answer in their hearts. Who else could manipulate all this behind the scenes and reach an agreement with Davis and Dick, except for that man?
Therefore, he had already planned everything, and today's board meeting was all in his expectation.
Mary's face became unhappy, and Juliana also frowned and remained silent.
Because there were no winners in today's meeting, all they did was to weaken Li's voice within the group.
Davis took the opportunity to intervene in the specific affairs of the group and obtained the real power of the most important loan department.
What Dick wants in the end is still unknown.
But it is conceivable that he would never trade at a loss, and there must be some kind of agreement between them.
So, everything that happened today was just a joke in the eyes of outsiders?
