``` The four of them chatted and laughed for a while until suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted them. "Mr. Fang, according to your orders, the company's leadership is here. Shall I let them in now?" the chairman's assistant asked cautiously from outside. Just a few days ago, they had received the news of the chairman's replacement, and from the leadership down to the employees, everyone was on edge, fearing the new boss would make drastic changes, which might cost them their jobs. They wondered how the company's structure might change. Moreover, they had heard that the new directors were a group of young university students, whose characters would be much more challenging to grasp. "What's going on?" the three looked at Fang Jueyu. "Oh, I gathered the company's management. Since I've taken over this company, it's got to be run properly, or else it'd be a waste of money. Let's at least meet them first," Fang Jueyu said as he opened the door to the meeting room. These leaders of the company used to be influential figures, but now they bowed their heads in silence in front of this group of students, quietly lining up to enter, fearing they might accidentally upset them. They couldn't fathom how four university students, not yet graduated, managed to acquire nearly all the company's shares, causing the board of directors to collapse overnight, leaving the company in the hands of four kids. In their minds, they had already deemed these young people to be heirs of some powerful business conglomerate, most likely honing their skills. But spending vast amounts of money like this was utterly astounding. "Please, everyone, take a seat. No need to be so formal," Fang Jueyu spoke first. "Many of you are founding members of this company. Today, I've gathered everyone here just to meet. Most of the structure will remain the same, so rest assured!" With Fang Jueyu's assurance, everyone's expressions slightly relaxed. Fang Jueyu naturally sat in the chairman's seat, with Cheng Kai and the other two sitting beside him. "Let me introduce myself first. I'm Fang Jueyu, a soon-to-be senior at Jiangnan University and the current chairman of this company. I own over 65% of the shares, so to put it simply, this company is now mine!" "These three are my friends, and each holds a 10% share of the company. Now, the board of directors consists of just the four of us." Fang Jueyu's direct words stunned all the senior executives. The company originally had over a dozen directors, and now nearly all the shares were in the hands of these four young people, with the combined shares of the veteran employees being less than 5%. Hence, there was no issue in saying the company was theirs. "I know you're curious about our background. I can tell you directly that I'm not interested in this company. It was just because my three roommates wanted to make some achievements in the gaming industry that I bought it. I won't be involved in the company's operations, only in some decision-making matters. Hence, when I'm not around, these three are the owners of this company!" "He just wants to be a hands-off boss!" the three thought to themselves. All the senior executives stared in shock at Fang Jueyu. From his words, it was easy to deduce that this new chairman acquired all the company's shares just to help a few roommates. Is this how kids from wealthy families play nowadays? Why didn't they meet roommates like this when they were young? "But rest assured, we're not messing around. My three roommates don't have much management experience, so I hope you'll assist them in getting familiar with and taking charge of the company quickly." "Rest assured, Chairman! Many of us are employees from the company's founding days. We will definitely assist the three directors in accomplishing everything!" an old employee immediately declared. "Hmm!" Fang Jueyu nodded with satisfaction. "Since the company has gone through a regime change, as chairman, I can't be stingy. Starting next month, all employees from the grassroots to the senior executives will have their salaries increased by 20%!" Immediately, the executives' eyes lit up. This was no small increase. Any grumbling employees had dissolved their resentment instantly. Such an opportunity was rare, and these senior executives could see their annual salaries increase by tens or even hundreds of thousands, enough to make them smile in their dreams. "Moreover, I will continue to add investments to the company. As long as you have good plans, good products, or good ideas that benefit the company's growth, you're welcome to suggest them. Bonuses will be doubled for those, without worrying about funds. No matter the amount, I can afford it!" Fang Jueyu now realized that investing was the fastest way to spend money. Apart from donations and charity, all expenses could count towards the mission! His past lifestyle limited his imagination and vision. When this door opened, a whole new world appeared before him! But of course, Fang Jueyu wouldn't spend money recklessly. Even for investments, he had to make sure they had potential, though the ultimate success or failure was not his current concern! seaʀᴄh thё ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The meeting lasted for a full two hours. Each senior executive introduced themselves and their roles, providing an overview of the company's business and products. Ding Minghui and the other two were extra attentive. They didn't want to ruin the enterprise Fang Jueyu entrusted to them, which would be unfair to him. It was close to five when they finally returned downstairs. Meng Xiaoyang had left quietly at some point, while Fu Zi and her parents were still waiting for them. The moment they saw Ding Minghui, their eyes lit up. During the past few hours, they had learned about the company's profitability and inquired about Ding Minghui's position and income. The answers they received left them almost speechless. Ding Minghui was indeed the president of this company and owned 10% of its shares. As for his annual income, it had to be measured in tens of millions, at least! Knowing this, Fu Zi's parents became flustered, worrying if their earlier behavior had upset Ding Minghui. If things soured between him and Fu Zi, where would they find another such affluent son-in-law? Therefore, the moment Ding Minghui appeared, they rushed up to him with smiles. "Little Ding, you must be tired after the meeting?" "That's right, Little Ding, have a seat and rest. Let's chat about you and our Xiao Zi." "Yes, yes, and please don't think we're too pragmatic. You know our Fu Zi is our only child, and as parents, we don't want her to suffer. Now that we believe you can give her happiness, we can rest assured entrusting her to you!" ... Wang Yan and Fu Changhong's sudden warmth left him a bit at a loss. He exchanged a glance with Fu Zi, and the deep affection in both their eyes was unmistakable. They then cast a grateful look toward Fang Jueyu. Fang Jueyu returned a smile. He had done what he could; the rest was up to them. At that moment, Fang Jueyu received a text message, causing his face to abruptly change. "I have some urgent business. I'll be off now. The company's in your hands!" Fang Jueyu quickly excused himself and left in a hurry. The text was from Guo Xinyu, informing him that her father's condition had worsened! ```
