<h4>Chapter 292: Lin Fan is the CEO of Estée Lauder. Counterattack!</h4>
When he walked into the office, Lin Fan looked at the many shareholders present.
Most of the shareholders were standing.
Some other shareholders had already sat down.
The first thing he saw was familiar faces.
The information given by Su Muqing had photos of the shareholders of thispany.
Wang Qing, the secondrgest shareholder, and ren, the thirdrgest shareholder.
ren approached Lin Fan warmly. He bowed respectfully and smiled. “Wee to Estée Lauder, Boss Lin.”
As a foreigner, ren was very warm to Lin Fan.
There were also some foreign shareholders who came up to Lin Fan and shook his hand.
“Hello, Boss Lin. I’m a shareholder of thepany. My name is Smith.”
“Good afternoon, Boss Lin. I’m a shareholder in thepany. My name is Tom. I really like the television series you filmed, The Legend of Sword and Fairy.”
“Boss Lin, my name is Jerry. You’re my idol. I thought I would never see you in person. I didn’t expect you to be the big boss of thepany today.”
After many shareholders shook hands with Lin Fan with a smile, thepany’s secondrgest shareholder, Wang Qing, also walked up to Lin Fan.
......
“Hello, Boss Lin.” Wang Qing smiled.
“Hello, Boss Wang. I don’t know much about thepany yet. I hope we can help each other in the future.” Lin Fan smiled and said a few pleasantries.
There was no emotion in the eyes of the shareholders in front of Lin Fan.
Whether it was the secondrgest shareholder, Wang Qing, or the thirdrgest shareholder, ren, they all acted as if nothing had happened and shook hands with Lin Fan.
However, to Lin Fan’s surprise,
After Lin Fan finished speaking, Wang Qing smiled and said, “Since Boss Lin doesn’t understand thepany’s affairs, won’t you lead thepany astray if you be the boss?”
“That’s right, Boss Lin. We admire your ability. We don’t know why the former CEO transferred his shares to you, but do you really have the ability to be the CEO of apany?”
“Boss Lin, it’s said that you’re an actor. You have to film dramas while taking care of thepany. I’m afraid you’ll be too busy to do that, right?”
“Why don’t you sell your shares? It’s too stressful at work. I’m afraid you won’t be able to take on this position.”
Many shareholders took the opportunity to speak.
Lin Fan’s eyes narrowed.
What he had said to Wang Qing was just to purposely expose a weakness to make Wang Qing deliberately target him.
It was just a simple probe, but it immediately exposed Wang Qing’s attitude.
Unexpectedly, Wang Qing also decisively targeted Lin Fan.
And these shareholders were all Chinese.
These people who were targeting Lin Fan were all on Wang Qing’s side.
The shareholders who had greeted Lin Fan earlier stood on the other side.
Lin Fan sat down, his face calm.
If he could deliberately expose his ws, he could solve this problem.
Lin Fan’s initial probing also revealed many things.
Lin Fan sat down and waved his hand. The room fell silent.
“I’m now thergest shareholder of Estée Lauder, which means that I’m now the boss of thepany. There’s a very clear share transfer document here to prove that I can be thergest shareholder of thepany. Do you need to take a look?” Lin Fan took out the share transfer document and looked at everyone present.
There was silence.
Because everyone knew that the original big boss of thepany had transferred the shares of Estee Lauder’srgest shareholder to Lin Fan.
It was an undeniable fact.
“Everyone has doubts. I can understand that. After all, it’s all about the development of thepany.”
“But from a business standpoint, I don’t think it’s up to you to tell me if I’m suitable for this position,” Lin Fan said, looking at everyone.
“As the CEO of apany, if I can be scolded in front of some ordinary employees, what’s the point of me being the CEO?”
“Did you take down the list of people who pointed at my nose and said that I’m not qualified for this position?” Lin Fan looked at the girl beside him, Su Muqing.
“Yes. Huang Hao, Wang Yuntian, and Wang Zilong.” Su Muqing nodded.
“If I remember correctly, you’re not shareholders of thepany. Inform the human resources department that you’ve been fired.” Lin Fan looked up at the three people behind Wang Qing.
When Lin Fan said that he wanted to fire these three people, Huang Hao, Wang Yuntian, and Wang Zilong’s eyes revealed disbelief.
Lin Fan actually dared to fire them in front of all the shareholders?
“Don’t you dare!”
“The three of them are my subordinates,” Wang Qing said, his eyes turning cold.
“Your subordinates are also from thepany. I’m the CEO of thepany. Boss Wang, know your ce. When did it be your turn to speak to me like this?” The teacup in Lin Fan’s handnded on the table with a clear sound.
“Fire these three people!”
“Muqing, as a CEO, don’t I have at least this bit of authority?” Lin Fan asked.
“Boss Lin, what you did was reasonable.” Su Muqing nodded.
“Lin Fan, is that reasonable? You’ll be subject tobor arbitration if you fire employees and use your authority recklessly.” Wang Qing looked at Lin Fan. He really couldn’t stop Lin Fan’s authority. There were so many employees in thepany. As the boss, Lin Fan could fire anyone he wanted, except for a major shareholder like Wang Qing.
“Labor arbitration?” Lin Fan smiled.
At that moment, Su Muqing walked out, holding a recording pen and ying the voices of the three people who had been talking to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan smiled and spread his hands. “You’re always wee to usebor arbitration against me.”
With this recording, even thebor arbitration would not support these people.
Lin Fan was not weak when he came to thispany.
From the first moment he entered, Lin Fan had been very domineering.
Lin Fan was already certain that even if the person who wanted to kill him was not Wang Qing, he would still kick Wang Qing out of thispanypletely.
He had epted the position of Estée Lauder CEO to help thepany make money.
Not to y these games and office politics.
However, since someone wanted to y, Lin Fan would still y along.
“I’m new to thepany. There’s a lot I don’t understand.”
“Now, I will announce thepany’s strategy. We will follow our original strategy for the time being,” Lin Fan said. “One more thing. Anyone in this room who wants to oppose me can bring it up.”
As expected, Wang Qing started to speak again.
As a member of the Wang family, Wang Qing was not a simple person.
Wang Qing looked at Lin Fan and said, “Boss Lin, you’re right about one thing. Whether one can lead thepany depends on their individual ability.”
“Now, thepany needs a sum of money to finance it. It will probably cost about a billion yuan. I wonder if you can gather this billion yuan in three days. If you can, then we won’t doubt your ability.”
Wang Qing’s words made Lin Fan smile. It reminded him of how Zhou Yu had used 100,000 arrows to force Zhuge Liang to borrow arrows with thatched boats.
But now, Lin Fan was not Zhuge Liang.
Although he could notpare to Zhuge Liang’s achievements, ordinary people could notpare to Lin Fan’s resources and tforms.
Wang Qing was making things difficult for Lin Fan.
Even a hundred-billion-yuan corporation like Estee Lauder would need time and find it difficult to raise a billion yuan at once.
He had only heard ofpanies financing Ofo. Where would apany finance Estee Lauder?
Even if one invested a billion yuan in cash into Estee Lauder, they wouldn’t hold many shares.
For example, did a bigpany like Alibaba or Tencent, need otherpanies to raise hundreds of millions of yuan to finance it?
Therefore, it was much more difficult to raise funds.
Wang Qing felt that Lin Fan would not be able toplete this mission at all.
Coming here and targeting Lin Fan was only the first step.
The second step of the n was to give Lin Fan a difficult mission so and force him to ept it. When Lin Fan failed the mission, he would leave a bad impression on the shareholders.
In that case, he wouldn’t be far from controlling thepany.
“Boss Wang, your mission is too difficult.”
“Boss Lin has just taken over ourpany and isn’t even familiar with thepany’s business. Yet you’re asking him to raise a billion yuan.”
“You’re making things difficult for Boss Lin. We can’t ept that condition.”
ren spoke, wanting to reject Wang’s suggestion harshly.
As far as they were concerned, it was an impossible task.
When Wang Qing heard this, he was even more amused. “In order to prove Boss Lin’s ability, of course we have toe up with a slightly more difficult mission. If Boss Lin can manage ourpany worth hundreds of billions, he won’t reject it, right?”
To their surprise, Lin Fan drank a cup of tea and took out his phone to send a message. “I ept,” he said with a smile.
Hearing Lin Fan ept it, the smile on Wang Qing’s face became even more obvious.
He thought Lin Fan would back down, but he didn’t expect him to ept.
Wasn’t this asking for trouble?
He had epted this mission in front of so many shareholders. If he could notplete it, it would be embarrassing.
Even Su Muqing was shocked.
She admired Lin Fan a lot.
The former CEO of thepany also felt that Lin Fan was not bad.
Therefore, when the former CEO transferred the shares to Lin Fan, he specially got the second daughter of the Su family to be Lin Fan’s assistant.
When Su Muqing heard the news, she came directly.
She was the second daughter of the Su family and a very smart girl.
As soon as she analyzed thepany’s information, she immediately sensed that something was wrong.
To Su Muqing, Lin Fan was a very rational person. Why would he agree to such a request?
Even her Su family could not take out a billion yuan in cash.
“Boss Lin…” Su Muqing wanted to persuade Lin Fan.
Looking at Su Muqing’s eyes, Lin Fan smiled. It seemed that the girl in front of him had nothing to do with wanting to kill him.
Eyes don’t lie.
Sometimes, a look could gain half of Lin Fan’s trust.
“Is Boss Lin going back on his word?”
“If Boss Lin goes back on his word in front of so many people, it would really be disappointing.” Wang Qingughed and looked at Lin Fan.
“Wait a moment. Wait three seconds.”
“Three…”
“Two…”
“One…”
“That’ll do,” Lin Fan said casually.
Everyone was confused.
At that moment, the manager of the finance department received a message.
“Oh my God, how is this possible? How is this possible…”
“Boss Lin is too amazing!”
“In just three seconds, ourpany actually raised a billion yuan!!” The finance manager said, looking at Lin Fan with admiration.
A billion yuan was not a lot for Estee Lauder, but it was very difficult to raise a billion yuan in three days.
But Lin Fan had only used three seconds toplete an impossible mission!
Everyone’s eyes turned deathly still at this moment!
