Chapter 710 The Board Meeting 4
Davidson forced himself to stay calm and shouted, Listen up! I am the second master of the Austin Family. My status is far beyond what you could ever hope to reach in your entire life. So think twice before crossing me completely, or you will have only yourself to blame for the consequences!Alan did not grow angry. He let out a hearty laugh and said, Don’t flatter yourself so much. At the very least, you ought to figure out who I really am first.Figure out who you are?Though he feared Alan’s strength, Davidson looked utterly disdainful upon hearing this. He stared at Alan and sneered, I’ve long dug up everything about you. You’re just a nobody, a live-in son-in-law of the Mill Family in Plus City. A trivial clan from a small town—what right do you have to act arrogant in front of us?Exactly!Orwell chimed in coldly right away. Get this straight. Even if you gathered all the major families in Plus City and combined their power and wealth, they still wouldn’t amount to half of the A
Chapter 711 Equity Transfer Part 1
Even to this day, the mere mention of John’s name still stirs heartfelt regret among middle-aged members of Neon City’s prominent clans.For these powerful families, accumulated wealth pales in comparison to an outstanding heir capable of steering the family through stormy business battles.The corporate arena is no different from a battlefield; the slightest misstep can spell total ruin and irreversible downfall. That explains why countless families rise and fall amid cutthroat competition, with many vanishing entirely from the pages of history.For a family to thrive perpetually, the amount of cash or land it owns matters little. What truly counts is whether its descendants can consistently produce exceptional, top-tier talents.The Smith Family’s present-day prosperity is inseparable from the solid groundwork laid by John two decades ago, which is why people hold him in high regard like a luminous full moon hanging in the night sky.Alan had never anticipated that Davidson and Orwe
Chapter 712 Equity Transfer Part 2
Alan’s words made him realize this was tantamount to having his power stripped for his eldest brother’s benefit.Within a corporation, the number of employees or departments under one’s control matters far less than the voting clout one wields inside the firm. The voting rights attached to shares are the core leverage for internal power struggles.Handing over all his voting rights now meant laying down every last weapon and forfeiting any chance of mounting future resistance. Truth be told, he loathed the prospect of being placed entirely at another’s mercy.Still, after weighing his options, he saw no viable way out. Could he refuse? Even if he did, nothing would change. Omba had fully recovered his health and had the young heir of the Smith Family backing him; Davidson stood no chance against the pair.Alan was handling this openly and fairly, granting him amnesty in exchange for yielding his voting power. Should he reject the deal, the opposition would shift to underhanded plots,
Chapter 713 The Press Conference 1
Davidson had originally planned for the journalists to cover his landslide victory at the board meeting. He’d expected the media to announce by noon that the chairmanship of Austin Group had changed hands and that he would take over as the new chairman.But never had he imagined all his scheming would end up benefiting his eldest brother instead.He could already picture the scene: once Omba stepped out looking hale and hearty at the press conference, every reporter who’d been convinced the chairman was on his deathbed would be thrown into an uproar.And the journalists would surely be utterly stunned when Omba announced he now held over fifty-one percent of the group’s voting rights.Lost in swirling thoughts, he let out a quiet sigh. Perhaps this was simply his fate.He had always lagged behind his elder brother in competence and political savvy and had tried to seize power amid Omba’s illness. Yet his plot had crumbled with the unexpected arrival of the young heir to the Smith Fami
Chapter 714 The Press Conference 2
A down limit means a stock is barred from falling further once its price drops by 10 percent; massive sell orders pile up at the lowest allowed price, trapping the share price and preventing any upward movement.In fact, the down limit can be lifted if an investor buys out all pending sell orders stacked at that floor price.Brokerages and institutional investors boast the sharpest market instincts in the stock market.The moment they saw Omba looking perfectly healthy and sound, they instantly concluded the morning news about his critical illness was entirely fabricated.Consequently, they were fully convinced Austin Group’s stock would surge without delay.By snapping up all sell orders at the down-limit price right then, these institutions could buy shares at the absolute bottom.Should the stock reverse course, climbing all the way from the down limit to the up limit in a single trading day, bargain-hunting institutions would pocket a full 20 percent gain within hours.For example
Chapter 715 Paying Respects to His Parents Part 1
He had fully secured absolute sole decision-making authority. From this moment onward, his command over Austin Group climbed to an unprecedented level.This further bolstered market and investor confidence in Omba. Faith in the man naturally translated to faith in the conglomerate. With solid trust in the company established, shareholders grew confident in holding its stocks. As a result, share prices skyrocketed.Omba avoided drawn-out exchanges with the assembled reporters. After addressing all planned key points, he spoke: Moving forward, Austin Group will redouble our efforts to repay the trust placed in us by all investors and shareholders. Rest assured, we will deliver outstanding results worthy of your confidence.With that, he added, That concludes today’s press conference. Thank you all for coming.One journalist hastily stood up and called out, Chairman Omba, would you spare some time for a brief interview?Omba waved a hand to decline. No further interviews needed. I have s
Chapter 716 Paying Respects to His Parents Part 2
As they neared the foot of Ridge Hill, Omba turned to Alan. Alan, tell the driver to pull over. You take the wheel.Alan hoped to keep his identity hidden from any members of the Smith Family for the time being, so he and Omba had agreed the previous day that he would pose as Omba’s driver and personal assistant for the tomb visit.He nodded. Very well, Uncle Omba. I’ll drive.The chauffeur pulled the car to the roadside, handed a pair of sunglasses to Alan and said, Mr. Alan, these are for you.Alan put on the sunglasses, pulled a disposable face mask from his pocket, then climbed into the driver’s seat. The original driver did not remain in the vehicle and instead boarded one of the following escort cars.Alan steered the sedan onward. Upon reaching the base of Ridge Hill, a stately white marble archway came into view, with an automatic gate shut tight beneath it and several security guards standing sentinel on either side.The lead car halted before the gate, and the rest of the mo
Chapter 717 Paying Respects to His Parents Part 3
Even as the chairman of Austin Group, Omba edged his tone into something close to entreaty as he spoke to the guard. Young fellow, my body is still far from fully healed. Out of respect for my long-standing close bond with the Smith Family, could you bend the rules just this once? Surely you wouldn’t want to watch me lose my footing and tumble down these stone steps?The guard bowed deeply in response. Mr. Omba, I truly cannot make an exception. To do so would cost me my job.A flicker of irritation crossed Omba’s face, and he pressed sharply. These regulations are far too cold and inhumane! Our two families have been close allies for generations, yet I’m being treated like a complete stranger!The guard shifted awkwardly and replied, Truth be told, Mr. Omba, these rules were set by an elderly master geomancer. The clan head holds his counsel as inviolable law and has ordered us to abide by every stipulation without deviation. I beg your forgiveness.Frustration made Omba’s temper fla
Chapter 718 Ten Years of Lifespan Part 1
Having finished speaking, he bent low and knocked his head nine times solemnly before the headstone.As the old saying goes, men kneel to heaven above, earth below, and parents in between. But in Alan’s eyes, neither heaven nor earth deserved his obeisance; his mother and father alone in all creation were worthy of his kowtow.Omba stepped forward then, dropping to one knee by the grave. Eldest brother, sister-in-law, I made a promise eighteen years ago, and I’ve kept my word at last — I’ve brought Alan home to you. Look at him now, a fine, outstanding young man, every inch the extraordinary talent you once were!He wiped away his tears and went on, The last time I visited your resting place, I thought I’d join you soon, yet Alan pulled me back from death’s door. I’m afraid you’ll have to wait a while longer before I come to your side…Tears choked off Omba’s words as he broke down weeping.Nancy stepped up and knelt on one knee beside him, her voice quivering with sorrow. Eldest brot
Chapter 719 Ten Extra Years of Life Part 2
It took him four years to locate Ridge Hill, construct the intricate feng shui formation across the mountain, and lift the Dragon Trapped in Shallows curse. Thanks to his efforts, the Smith Family pulled through their calamity, and Alan himself reaped tremendous benefits.All along, the elderly geomancer had waited patiently for Alan’s arrival, for the young man was the fated lifeline marked in the elder’s divination.With this realization, Alan bowed slightly toward the old sage. Venerable sir, I am deeply grateful for everything you’ve done; your labors have changed my fate entirely. Please accept my respectful obeisance.The elder hurried forward to stop him, speaking with profound humility. I possess neither the merit nor standing to receive such a grand gesture from you.Alan insisted firmly. You deserve it. Without your intervention, I would still be trapped bound to the shallow shallows to this day.The old man shook his head. Among all life destinies, the Dragon fate ranks sup
