"Mr. Chen, this is the Board of Directors, please be serious!" a middle-aged man said solemnly.
His name was He Ming, the vice chairman of Hanjiang Group. He was the one who initiated this Board meeting.
He wanted to challenge Chen Han's position.
Zhao Yan was wearing earphones and couldn't hear He Ming's words at all, he could only see his mouth moving.
Although he didn't know what he was saying, he could guess with his butt that they were definitely not nice words.
So...Zhao Yan chose to insult him.
Leaning forward with one hand on his ear: "What did you say? Speak up, I can't see!"
"Pfft~" Xu Xue laughed out loud. Chairman Chen's meaning was that he didn't take He Ming seriously at all.
He Ming glared coldly at her.
Xu Xue quickly suppressed her smile: "Chairman He, don't get me wrong, I just thought of something happy."
Explaining it was worse than not explaining at all.
He Ming's face was livid as he scolded sharply: "Chairman Chen, this is the Board of Directors. I hope you can be more serious and show respect to all the directors!"
"Bite me, come on bite me!" Zhao Yan took off his earphones, and made a very cheap Michael Jackson move that would get him called a rogue if an ordinary person did it but would make tens of thousands of fans scream when Michael Jackson did it.
After all, this was Chen Han's body.
So he could mess around freely, it was Chen Han who would lose face, what does it have to do with him, Zhao Yan?
All the directors were dumbfounded. Since when did Chen Han become so...so cheap?
They also didn't know what Chen Han would feel when he discovered that he had lost all social credibility after the body swap period ended.
The corner of He Ming's mouth twitched as he was almost angered to madness. He slapped the table and pointed at Zhao Yan, cursing loudly: "Chen Han! You are simply vulgar!"
"I can't help it, I'm a vulgar man, of course I'm vulgar. I really admire you, a delicate little golden mushroom man. This is probably the kind of small detail that women like, isn't it?" Zhao Yan sighed helplessly.
Everyone tried not to laugh when they heard this. Watching two gods fight, no one dared to intervene.
Especially when both sides were men.
He Ming turned in circles on the spot in anger. He took off his glasses and pointed at Zhao Yan: "I won't argue with you. You have caused such a great loss to the company. I think you are no longer suitable to serve as Chairman of Hanjiang Group."
"Tsk, when bonuses were handed out, you were so happy like the inbred child of your parents' incestuous marriage. But when there's losses, you blame me. Why don't you go die?" Zhao Yan asked him happily.
Hanjiang Group and Binhai Capital had initially reached an important cooperation agreement. But when Chen Han went to negotiate the details, he suddenly had diarrhea and ran to the bathroom several times, leaving Binhai Capital's representatives waiting in their original spot.
In anger, Binhai Capital's representatives left. Shortly after, another company called Changhong Trading obtained Binhai Capital's contract with a bid just 5% higher than Hanjiang Group.
No one believed there wasn't an insider making trouble. The one who was happiest is most likely to be the insider.
He Ming is the prime suspect.
It's just that Zhao Yan has no evidence.
"I'm too lazy to engage in meaningless arguments with you." He Ming said with a cold laugh. He looked around and said, "Everyone, let's just start voting now. I propose to remove Chen Han from his position as Chairman of Hanjiang Group."
After that, half of the people raised their hands. Seeing this, the rest hesitated and raised their hands as well.
"Go ahead and sit in that chairman's seat for a while longer, Chen Han. You won't get to sit there anymore in the future." He Ming revealed a smug smile on his face when he saw this.
How could I lose this fight when I got the upper hand?
His smile grew wider and wider.
Zhao Yan chuckled and placed both hands on the conference table scanning everyone: "Does everyone want to reconsider? Let me put it this way, if I am no longer the Chairman, then I will sell my shares to enjoy life instead. I believe many companies will be interested to hear about this."
The conference room exploded instantly.
"Chairman Chen, you can't be so unkind! Selling shares at this time will cause the stock price to fall!"
"That's right, Hanjiang Group is booming, it's your life's work, you can't sell it!"
"He Ming is simply making trouble out of nothing. Hanjiang was founded by Chairman Chen with his own hands. I support Chairman Chen."
The directors put down their hands one after another. The wind turned to fully support Chen Han in an instant, condemning He Ming.
Chen Han is the majority shareholder, and he treats everyone well too. If he sells his shares, will the new boss still let them be so prosperous? They would definitely try to squeeze them out of the company.
Compared to the threat of Hanjiang changing hands, the little bit of benefits He Ming promised them meant nothing.
Zhao Yan revealed a gratified smile and gestured for them to quiet down: "That's more like it, Directors, you have to be sensible! If you guys don't make sense, how can you still be members of the Board of Directors?"
He didn't understand power struggles.
But he knew how to play dirty!
"Chairman Chen is so considerate, thinking so much for the elderly in the company. I strongly support this!"
"This is very touching, I support it too."
"Chairman He should rest well."
Seeing his allies defect one by one, He Ming trembled with anger: "You guys... Very good, I'm not sick! I'm very healthy, hale and strong!"
He absolutely could not be removed from his position. Otherwise, he would only get dividends and have no more control over the company.
"Chairman He, I know you're saying this because you still want to contribute to the company, but your illness really can't be delayed any longer." Zhao Yan earnestly advised.
He Ming's eyes were bloodshot: "I'm not sick!"
"Alright, so what if you're not? The Board of Directors has already sensibly approved the proposal to remove all your duties." Zhao Yan shrugged with a smile.
He Ming looked around at the directors who were all raising their hands. His vision went dark and he almost fell down.
Zhao Yan pointed at him exaggeratedly: "Look, he can't even stand steadily and still says he's not sick. Hurry up and call security to escort Chairman He back for some good rest!"
Soon, two security guards came in and forcibly dragged He Ming out at Zhao Yan's order.
"Let me go! I'm not sick! Not sick!"
He Ming screamed and struggled constantly.
Zhao Yan took a deep breath and pretended to wipe away imaginary tears, his voice choking: "See that? Chairman He still wants to stick to his post despite his illness, and doesn't even want to admit he's sick just for the sake of the company, how touching. But I can't let him be so stubborn, I have to take responsibility for his health and make him rest."
"Chairman Chen is so kind, it's Chairman He's blessing to have met a superior like you."
"That's right, for an official to die for his duties, it's understandable that Chairman He still wants to hold on to his post despite his illness, given a wise leader like Chairman Chen."
"Chairman Chen really is a good man..."
All the directors sighed in succession. In their mouths, Zhao Yan had become a saint.
Meanwhile, He Ming, who had just been dragged out of the conference room, spit out a mouthful of blood when he heard these words.
"Oh my god, everyone look quick, Vice Chairman He is bleeding for the company!" Zhao Yan exclaimed loudly.
Everyone: "......"
Damn sacrificing and bleeding for the company my ass!

So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement?
