The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

"Recently, the Bao Group has been in the eye of a storm. The personal affairs of Mr. Bao and Mrs. Bao have escalated to the point of affecting the company's image and greatly damaging the company's interests. Fellow shareholders, I personally believe that Mr. Bao is no longer suitable to serve as the chairman of the Bao Group."

Bao Yifan said angrily, "This Bao Group was founded by you and my parents. How can you bear to kick us out of the Bao Group? Yes, our family matters have indeed affected the normal operation of the company. But why don't you think about how the Bao Group was just a small workshop back then? Under the leadership of my parents over the years, its market value has increased many times over, and how much profit has it brought to all the shareholders? How can you try to wipe us out just because of one mistake?"

"Yifan, you may have misunderstood..." Liu Zuohuang said coldly, "You and your father, the Bao family, have been in charge of the Bao Group. The company's market value has doubled, and your family fortune has doubled along with it, hasn't it? You haven't been solely serving the shareholders and sacrificing your personal interests. Moreover, the Bao Group's development to its current state is not solely due to your leadership, but belongs to all the employees of the Bao Group. The shareholders have invested real money in the Bao Group over the years; shouldn't they be entitled to a return? How come it sounds like a favor from you and your father in your mouth?"

Bao Yifan wanted to improve his image, but Liu Zuohuang, being a cunning old fox, wiped out the influence of Bao Yifan's words with just a few words.

At this moment, Bao Yifan's eyes gradually darkened. The enemy had come prepared and had already successfully launched a sneak attack, becoming the largest shareholder of the Bao Group and turning Liu Zuohuang to the side. He was not even as eloquent as Liu Zuohuang. What else could he do?

"The company belongs to everyone, to all shareholders, not to your Bao family as private property," Liu Zuohuang said calmly. "Shareholders, please vote."

The vote has been cast.

Without a doubt, Mr. Bao was directly removed from his position as chairman of the Bao Group.

Next, Liu Zuohuang proposed again to remove Bao Yifan from his position as president of the Bao Group.

Even if there were minority shareholders who favored the Bao family at the shareholders' meeting, they were insignificant in the face of the overall trend, and Bao Yifan lost his position as president.

In this way, after a shareholders' meeting, the Bao family's influence over the Bao Group was largely eliminated.

"Old Bao has been removed from his position as chairman, but a country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and a family cannot be without a head for a day. The Bao Group still needs someone to support its affairs, right?"

"Yes, yes, I propose that Miss Andy temporarily assume the position of Chairman."

Andy is now the largest shareholder of the Bao Group. She doesn't even need to say much; the people she's arranged start praising and flattering her.

Soon, the vote for Andy to become chairman was also announced.

There was absolutely no suspense.

Andy quickly became the chairman of a company with a market value of several billion.

The prosperity of the world is for profit; the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

When Andy can bring benefits to everyone, the grievances of the Bao family are automatically ignored.

These days, whoever can lead everyone to make money is the boss, and whoever makes everyone lose money is a mortal enemy.

The Bao Group is currently mired in trouble, and it's obvious to everyone that this is the work of Andy and the forces behind her. Their power and capabilities are not to be underestimated. At this point, if Andy can successfully take control of the Bao Group, the smoke of battle outside will likely dissipate quickly, and everyone's losses will naturally be recovered.

For many small and medium-sized shareholders, who serves as chairman is none of their business; they just want their money to be safe.

When the times abandon you, they won't even say goodbye.

Bao Yifan could only watch helplessly as Andy, sitting at the head of the table, effortlessly took over the Bao Group, which his family had worked so hard for their entire lives.

"Dad, say something!"

Bao Yifan said anxiously in a low voice to Old Master Bao.

"What else can I say?" Old Bao took off his glasses and wiped them, saying, "I'm not as skilled as them, what else is there to say? How can my empty words compare to the real money they promised?"

Old Bao saw it very clearly: Andy and the others had clearly made all the preparations before holding this shareholders' meeting. Most of the people here had been bought off, and apart from a very few, they were probably all hoping that the father and son would die soon.

"Forget it, if they want the company, let them have it."

Old Bao said nonchalantly:

"We'll take the money and withdraw, and that'll be enough to live comfortably for the rest of our lives."

Bao Yifan was speechless. You're not worried at all, because over the years, your power in the company has already been stripped away by me and Mom, and you've become an idle person. No matter how bad things get now, they can't get any worse.

But I'm different. At a young age, I've already experienced what it's like to be in charge. How could I be willing to hand over the reins of the company?

However, no matter how much Bao Yifan struggled, he couldn't change the agenda of the shareholders' meeting.

The people here are like a group of ruthless voting machines.

Every vote concerning Andy passed, while any attempt to cause trouble failed.

The meeting has ended.

Andy packed his things and headed out.

Bao Yifan strode forward, placing his hand in front of Andy's face, like a gambler who had lost all his chips, his gaze fierce as he stared at Andy:

"Andy, it's Tan Zongming who's been targeting our Bao family, isn't it? You were just being used by Tan Zongming, weren't you?"

Andy involuntarily frowned and took two steps back.

Bao Yifan was closing in.

"Could you please get lost?" Bai Ye stepped between Andy and Bao Yifan at the right moment, a faint smile on his face: "How many days has it been since you last showered? You stink, don't you know that?"

The Fairy Tree Romance

Bao Yifan completely ignored Bai Ye's meaning, reaching out to push Bai Ye away, and said, "Andy, tell me..."

However, instead of pushing Bai Ye, he was gently pushed by Bai Ye and crashed into the wall behind him, his body going numb.

"Mr. Bao, this is just normal business practice. The business world is like a battlefield. If you lose, you lose. You should face reality as soon as possible. It's better for everyone."

Andy said one last thing before turning and leaving.

Bai Ye protected Andy.

Bao Yifan could only watch helplessly as Andy walked away, unable to do anything, and was filled with an endless emptiness...

Andy officially became the chairman and president of the Bao Group. Upon taking office, he carried out sweeping reforms of the Bao Group. Most of the senior executives who were originally hired by the Bao family were dismissed by Andy and replaced with his own people.

The last vestige of influence the Bao family had over the Bao Group was gradually eradicated.

Over several days, countless arguments took place inside the Bao family mansion. Finally, with his parents reaching a compromise, Bao Yifan approached Andy and offered to sell the Bao family's shares.

"Five hundred million, I guess."

Inside the office, Andy sat in the CEO's chair, Bai Ye playing games beside her. Andy looked at Bao Yifan, who was seeking an acquisition, and said:

"I can use 500 million to acquire your shares."

"You...you're joking, right?" Bao Yifan's facial muscles twitched as he said, "The shares I hold are worth at least 15 billion, and you're offering a 30% discount right off the bat?"

“If your shares are really worth 15 billion, then you can go find someone else to buy them. Why come to me?” Andy took a sip of water and said calmly, “While you were arguing in the villa, my shareholding had already exceeded 51%, and I had taken control of the Bao Group. I’d like to see who dares to offer 15 billion to buy your shares.”

Bao Yifan fell silent for a long time before finally saying in a hoarse voice:

"You moved so quickly? You've already taken control of the Bao Group?"

“In these kinds of things, speed is everything. If you’re slow, you’ll be slow in every step,” Andy said. “Honestly, if you hadn’t had those parents, you might not have lost so badly. But there are no ifs. You lost. It’s all about the winner taking all.”

"Mr. Bao, the price I can offer you is five hundred million. If you agree, fine. If not, please leave. I have many things to do and don't have time to sit with you."

"it is good!"

Bao Yifan gritted his teeth and agreed:

"Five hundred million it is."

"OK!"

Andy immediately had his secretary bring the draft contract for Bao Yifan to sign.

Bao Yifan's hands were shaking when he signed, but there was nothing he could do; it's all about the winner taking all...

"Alright, the Bao Group is yours from now on."

Bao Yifan gave a nonchalant smile and said:

"Andy, we may never see each other again. Before we part, may I hug you?"

Andy glanced at Bai Ye, who was pretending not to hear anything, smiled, then turned to Bao Yifan and said:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Bao, I already have a boyfriend."

"understood."

Bao Yifan nodded heavily and walked out of the Bao Group building with heavy steps.

Then that afternoon.

Mr. Bao and Mrs. Bao divorced at the Civil Affairs Bureau, each receiving half of the money from the sale of Bao Group's shares. Mr. Bao then flew abroad that same day.

Meanwhile, Madam Bao was still temporarily residing in the Bao family mansion, and she didn't know where she could go.

“Bao Yifan’s father, he’s been in a cage for so long, and now he’s finally back to nature!” Bai Ye smiled and said, “On the day of the divorce, he took more than 200 million yuan and went to Australia. I guess he had already planned his escape route.”

“They should have divorced long ago. A marriage without love only torments and causes them endless pain.” Andy looked at Bai Ye and asked with a smile, “Bai Ye, if it weren’t for this operation, I wouldn’t have known you were so rich!”

Despite the swiftness of her acquisition of the Bao Group, Andy knew that she only deserved a small share of the credit. The biggest credit lay in Bai Ye's ability to quickly raise a massive amount of funds, which directly overwhelmed many people with money.

"Hey, it's just some loans. Actually, I don't have that much money," Bai Ye said. "Now that the Bao Group belongs to us, wouldn't it be inappropriate to keep calling it the Bao Group? How about we change the name? How about Lily Group?"

"lily?"

Andy raised an eyebrow and asked:

"Why this name... Oh, I see, it's a homonym for both of our names?"

“Yes,” Bai Ye said, “but calling it Baihe Group is too nonsensical. Using the homophone to form the name of a lily, it includes both of our names and makes the name sound fresh and elegant. What do you think?”

“I think the name is alright,” Andy said. “But you’re really handing over such a big group to me to manage directly? Originally, I was thinking that after acquiring the Bao Group, I would split it up and sell it off. Old Tan would be very happy to be the major buyer of most of the Bao Group’s assets, expanding the Xuan Group’s product line. That way, we could make a lot of money and easily cash out and leave.”

"Well... you can decide what you want to do," Bai Ye smiled and said. "If you think it's better to split up and sell the Bao Group, then sell it. But if you think it's better to keep the Bao Group running, then keep it running and you can be the chairman. After all, the Bao Group is a high-quality asset, and you shouldn't have to worry about the Bao Group's annual profits not being enough to pay off the loan interest."

After hearing this, Andy also began to hesitate.

If she hadn't met Bai Ye, she hadn't really decided whether to stay in China or return to Wall Street after helping Tan Zongming resolve the acquisition.

Now that he has met Bai Ye and found his younger brother, Andy feels that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he should stay in China permanently.

In China, if one could lead a large corporation...

That would be perfect.

“Let me discuss this with Lao Tan before making a decision!” Andy said. “After all, you contributed the majority of the funds raised to acquire the Bao Group, but Lao Tan also contributed a lot of money and connections. He has a say in how to deal with the Bao Group now.”

"OK."

Bai Ye shrugged and laughed:

"However, I think Tan Zongming won't refuse."
