Chapter 1583: New President



"What do you mean by this, Lu Lijun?" Mister Fu challenged. "Are you implying Mister Zhi is not loyal?"

Without a hint of hesitation, Lu Lijun replied, "That is precisely what I am saying. Not only mister Zhi but I dare to question loyalties of many of you present here." His confident and unwavering demeanour showed he was well aware of what he was doing.

Mister Fu slammed his hands on the table. "Lu Lijun, you should not question our loyalty to Lu Corporation. We have been board members since before you were even born. Our loyalty has always been to the corporation."

"I only mentioned Mister Zhi, yet it seems Mister Fu feels a strong bond with him to take those words personally," Lu Lijun observed.

Mister Fu turned to Lu Jinhai. "Chairman Lu, won't you say something? We have been with you for so long. How can he accuse us like this?"

"We have agreed to give them a chance to prove their worth, haven't we?" Lu Jinhai responded calmly. "If Lu Lijun is wrong, then Mister Zhi should have no problem proving it."

Mister Fu turned to the man beside him, who nodded and stood up. "Mister Lu Lijun, I'm not sure how you came to this conclusion, but everyone here has been loyal to Lu Corporation and..."

"Things can change," Lu Lijun interjected. "Human nature is often filled with greed, and so loyalties and priorities can shift."

This realization led to an inevitable question: Then, what was the purpose of this meeting?

Everyone grasped the situation loud and clear: under the pretense of a meeting to appoint a new president, it was actually a trap to gather everyone together and expose any betrayers of Lu Corporation. The images and information displayed on the screen revealed that Lu Lijun had been preparing for this moment since he first joined the company. He had embarked on a mission from the very beginning, orchestrating everything independently.

The depth and duration of Lu Lijun's planning were beyond anyone's comprehension. "Chairman Lu, things are not as they appear," Mister Zhi began, his voice betraying his panic. "I swear, our loyalty has always been to Lu Corporation."

"I can see that," Lu Lijun replied calmly, his thoughts inscrutable. Lu Jinhai, observing silently, felt a sense of pride. The unwanted elements he had long sought to purge from his company were now exposed, thanks to his son.

"I will leave the remaining decisions to Chairman Lu, President Lu, and the other board members who remain loyal to Lu Corporation," Lu Lijun declared. "However, I advise you to understand what it means to appoint me as president. I won't be lenient. Given the current situation of the company and the crucial projects under my control, you have no choice but to accept me as your president."

His statement was a direct threat, delivered with unmistakable confidence. It was as if he had already declared himself president, leaving no room for dissent. This was unprecedented in corporate settings, but Lu Lijun, the chairman's second son, was clearly a force to be reckoned with. He wasn't seeking anyone's permission or approval for the presidency; he had decided for himself, underscoring that he didn't require anyone's permission to get what belonged to him rightfully.

Xiao Min took the charge of the meeting again, "If anyone still oppose the appointment of mister Lu Lijun as the new president, kindly raise your hand."

There was a silence in the room, not a single person raised their hand. Xiao Min waited for a moment and then Noah passed the file across the meeting table where everyone signed on it. "So hereby, I declare mister Lu Lijun the next president of the corporation. He will assume his position once the current president hand over her resignation," Xiao Min declared.

With that the meeting successfully came to an end, with Lu Lijun becoming the president of Lu Corporations.
