Chapter 1298: With Malicious Hearts, It's All Over
Sleepless all night, major shareholders are purely concerned about gains and losses.
He worried in his heart that all of this was just a dream of his own, and when he woke up, it was still the cruel reality. Therefore, in order to ensure that all this would not be a dream, he simply forced himself to drink two catties of coffee, so that he could not fall asleep all night because of his excitement.
At his age, staying up all night like this is really hurting. But after all, it is for the future, so such suffering is obviously worth it. In order to settle this matter as soon as possible, almost early in the morning, the major shareholder drove himself to the headquarters of General Electric.
He thought he was the first to come, but to his surprise, many people obviously came earlier than him. This made him a little surprised, but on the surface he still greeted everyone calmly.
"Morning, everyone. It seems that everyone is in good spirits. Have you found a solution to the problem?"
"Good morning, Mr. Chairman. We have been waiting for you. I wonder if you have received some help?"
Someone started to reply to him, but looking at the expression on the shareholder's face, the major shareholder didn't know why, but always felt a special malice in it. What is he going to do, what does he mean by this sentence. The major shareholders have already unconsciously calculated in their hearts. But just as he was making such calculations, more and more people started talking to him one after another.
"It seems that the future of the company really depends on you, Mr. Jones."
"That's right, that's right. We people are useless. Only people like you, Mr. Jones, can support a big company like General Motors."
"You are the backbone of GM. We seem to have to rely on you to see if we can get through this difficult time."
Sentence after sentence, each sentence reveals a strange meaning. This made the major shareholders more and more curious and wanted to know what happened to these guys. But just when he was about to ask a few people he knew well to clarify the matter, the receptionist in the company had already called in.
"Your Excellency, Mr. Harry Osborne's representatives and his lawyers are here. They said they have an appointment with you. Do you need to let them go up now?"
"Let them come straight up. I'll be right here waiting for them!"
Hearing the news of the presence of key figures, the major shareholders lost the mood to care about these insignificant matters. Although there is always a weirdness in things, as long as he signs the agreement,
Then everything has nothing to do with me.
At that time, no matter what kind of crazy idea this guy was playing, the person who would have a headache in the end would only be Osborn who took his order. He didn't need to pay for Osborn's problems, so naturally, he didn't need to explore their gods at this time.
The contract is at the top of the list right now. And just after he invited Osborne's people to come up, two people appeared in front of him one after another soon.
A man and a woman. The man looked mature and prudent, wearing a suit and leather shoes, and carrying a briefcase in his hand, he looked like an elite. There is a sense of reassurance at a glance. As for the woman, the major shareholder really doesn't know how to comment on her.
Jeans, a casual shirt, and a headset hanging around his neck. With a laid-back look of doing nothing, it is hard to believe that Osborn sent this person here to discuss business.
When discussing business in the business field, wearing formal clothes is a basic respect for the other party. Old Antique didn't believe that Osborn would be ignorant of this kind of thing, so of course, he interpreted this as contempt for himself. In this way, he was angry in his heart, but he couldn't bring it out to attack. So he could only hold his breath, and stretched out his hands to these two people with a constipated face.
"Welcome, both of you. I'm Bob Jones. I've already made an appointment with Mr. Osborne. Now I think we can sign the contract."
"Of course, gentlemen. That's what we're here for, isn't it?"
After casually placing it on the major shareholder's hand, the young woman said with a blunt expression.
"I am Daisy, Daisy Johnson. Mr. Osborne's spokesperson, this is Mark, our lawyer. The contract is here, you can take a look, if there is no problem, I think we can sign it now .”
Although Skye's attitude is annoying, but it is also helpless. So the major shareholder could only ignore her attitude, took the agreement from the lawyer named Mark without saying a word, and looked at it word by word with his head down.
There are always too many places for people to manipulate things like contracts. If you are not careful, you might be caught in some kind of trap. Generally speaking, this kind of matter should be judged by more professional talents, but the major shareholder is confident in his ability, and he is too eager. So at the moment, he began to review it on his own.
At this time, he thought he would be the only exception. Because in his opinion, he should be the only one who will make this deal with Osborn. However, he obviously forgot one thing. He ignored what the Osborne representative said just now. He forgot that she was talking about you and not you.
While the major shareholder was reviewing the contract, Skye had already met with several other shareholders and handed over the contract. Seeing such a situation, the major shareholder was taken aback for a moment, and then said in disbelief.
"Why, don't you also..."
"We, we didn't think of it." At this time, everyone's expressions were a little stiff. Because no one thought that the person they should insist on and oppose the most would actually make the same decision as them. This made them more sure of what they had done, and it also made them more embarrassed when facing major shareholders.
Presumptuously, they also said that before, but now it seems that there is no need for this at all. Because it is already obvious that the major shareholder has found a way out for himself, and it is impossible for him to go bankrupt along with General Electric as they thought. They used to face him with the mind of watching a joke, but now this kind of joke is impossible to happen, and it will make their previous eccentric words look a bit villainous. This is really unnecessary.
Shareholders are almost regretting that they used that method to provoke someone who was unnecessary. But it is obviously useless to regret now, and people who can be capitalists are somewhat thick-skinned. So everyone just chuckled and acted as if nothing happened before.
This appearance made the big shareholder so angry that he wanted to laugh. At this time, he finally understood why these people said such things to him before. They were watching their own jokes, they were obviously thinking that they were going to be in a miserable situation, and they could get out of it. In this comparison, they get an almost pathetic sense of superiority. And because of this sense of superiority, they would say such strange things to themselves.
How can people be so shameless. After understanding this point, the major shareholders wanted to point their noses and yell. But after thinking about it, he suppressed this thought again.
It's not a day or two for these bastards. It doesn't matter to them whether they scold them or not. Anyway, everything is going to come to an end today, so I just let them go, and forget about it after today.
With the idea of calming down the matter, the major shareholders hastily accelerated the speed of their own review. And just as he thought, Osborn didn't set any traps in this agreement. Firstly, it is estimated that they think it is not necessary, after all, it is already a matter of taking advantage of the fire, and if it is done too much, it is really unreasonable.
The second reason is that Osborne is a big company after all, and a big company has the credibility of a big company. To do such a lowly thing at such a time, it is somewhat ugly to say it. Even for the sake of the company's reputation, there is no need for them to suffer such a loss because of these small money.
They were Osborne after all. The major shareholder, who originally focused on competing with Osborn, is now inevitably feeling emotional. He knew that starting today, General Electric would be a complete loser in the competition with Osborne Enterprises. Since the owner of General Electric has changed its name to Osborne, it no longer has such qualifications.
This made him, who had some feelings for this company, feel a little melancholy, but under his command, he still signed his name on the agreement without hesitation. Feelings and interests, these two things have always been isolated in the capitalist world. So he obviously disliked the woman named Daisy, but he still forced a smile and stretched out his hand to her.
"There is no problem with the contract. I have already signed my name. Therefore, I hope that your company will transfer the funds in the contract earlier. This is what we agreed on before."
"Of course." With a slight smile, Skye held the major shareholder's hand and confidently stated to him. "Don't worry, sir. We have gathered more than 100 billion yuan of funds, which is enough to pay for the contract in your hands. In addition, Mr. Harry Osborne asked me to bring his greetings. He would like to invite you to Before you leave, give a speech to the GE employees. You know, it’s an eventful time, and it’s important to appease them, isn’t it?”
"Of course, this is what I should do." He responded with an uneasy face, but the major shareholder suddenly had doubts in his heart. "By the way, why didn't Mr. Osborne come here in person. He has already won most of the shares of General Electric. It is much more useful for him to speak for the employees in person than us old people. .”
"No way, he can't get away." Shrugging his shoulders, Skye laughed innocently. "He needs to be there in person at Exxon Mobil."
Upon hearing this, the major shareholder immediately took a breath.
