Charlie, who was sitting beside Yule, could not help but feel a lot of admiration and respect for him when h e heard his words.
Yule's remarks might seem to be a demonstration of his weakness, but it was, in truth, a demonstration of his power in front of the board of directors. 3
He had deliberately talked about how he had led the company to continue advancing by leaps and bounds over the past twenty years. On the surface, it seemed a s though he wanted everyone to reminisce about the past and their old feelings, but in essence, he was simply reminding this group of people that he was the one who had led the company to push forward by leaps and bounds over the past twenty years. Moreover, he would also be the one to help this company to continue growing and developing rapidly for the next twenty years. 4
If this group of people wanted to exclude him and remove him from his position, they would have to consider the actual development of the company over the past two decades so that they could think of who could actually do things better compared to Yule.
They came to a realization in an instant. 4
They were originally planning to give their support to help the second son of the Golding family, Adrian, to b e elected as the chairman.
However, after Yule’s reminder, they could not help but rethink their plan. 5
If they thought about Adrian's performance in the company over the past two decades, they would realize that he had not truly made any outstanding achievements in the company, and his performance was truly subpar and mediocre. 6
Therefore, his overall strength was far worse off as compared to his brother.
If that was the case, why should they get rid of the current chairman of the board and replace him with Adrian, who was obviously not good enough? 4
When Adrian had tried to convince everyone to support him, he had told them that the chairman was already on his dying bed.
However, the chairman looked as though he was in excellent health and condition now. He did not look like someone who was about to die soon. 5
As he thought about this, he suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Chairman, although I am your younger brother, out of responsibility for the whole group, I still have to ask you, how is your current condition and health now?" 3
At this time, Rogan, who was sitting aside, also chimed in, "Yes, chairman. As you know, the Golding Group is a super large corporation with a comprehensive market value of more than one trillion dollars. There are also many listed companies under this group, most of which have a market value of more than ten billion dollars or one hundred billion dollars. We have to be responsible for all the shareholders and investors! What will the group do if you suddenly pass away one day? What should we do, then? What about all of our investors?!’’ 6
A faint smile appeared across Yule's face as he replied calmly, "That is a good question. I was just about to solemnly report my current physical health and condition to everyone present here today." 4
As he spoke, Yule cleared his throat and smiled as he said, "Yes, I did suffer from pancreatic cancer before this. There are relevant medical records of my condition both in the domestic hospital and hospitals abroad. This definitely cannot be faked." 3
Immediately after that, he sighed and continued speaking, "Initially, I thought that I was already running out of time. However, sometimes life is just full of twists and turns. The tumor in my body has disappeared miraculously. Hence, I have already regained my full health now. Everyone should be able t o see that my current physical health and condition are, in fact, way better compared to before. So, don't worry about it. I will definitely lead the Golding Group t o its next level of splendor and glory!"
