43 Confrontation (2/2)
However, the shareholders and company executives were on the scene and Cao Dequan couldn't exactly confess that he had swallowed Zhang Xiaohua's shareholder dividends even if he wanted to.
Cao Dequan strived to maintain a friendly att.i.tude and appease Zhang Xiaohua, ”I think you have misunderstood Uncle. ”Let the accountant send you the rest, how much did you not receive?”
Since this old b***** wanted to play, then he would play with him, anyway he had plenty of time.
He leaned back and slid comfortably against the conference chair. He tilted his head high and said leisurely, ”You gave me thirty thousand dollars out of 1 million. Everyone knows that my dad gave you everything. Yet now that my dad is gone, you have finally showed your ungrateful side.”
”Zhang Xiaohua, you...” Cao Feifei was suffocated with a snotty, sloppy eye, and she wanted to beat Zhang Xiaohua up. Zhang Xiaohua's calm and shameless appearance was so infuriating!
”What are you doing here? You don't have to accompany me, you know... oh yeah, why aren't you with that Ling Fang?”
Seeing Cao Feifei become triggered, Zhang Xiaohua didn't forget to add some extra salt to her wounds. Cao Feifei was blindsided with anger, her vision became crimson red, so much that the two peaks on her chest heaved up and down. Zhang Xiaohua was enjoying the view very much, he really wanted to reach out and grab one!
After seeing Cao Feifei becoming mad, an executive was stunned. In order to please Cao Feifei, he scolded Zhang Xiaohua: ”Zhang Xiaohua, don't think that just because you're the son of the former boss, you can come here and say whatever you want. You said just now that you want to file a lawsuit, right? We can also play that game, as a shareholder of New Century, you actually went and opened a private company outside. Did you know that we can sue you for this?”
”Sue me?” Zhang Xiaohua smiled. ”If I remember correctly, according to 'Corporate Law', all shareholders have the right to open their own businesses, of course, unless they have an official position in the company and as far as I'm aware I'm neither the chairman nor the general manager of the company. I'm just a small shareholder. So I'm interested in how you plan to sue me.”
The executive immediately blushed like a peach and quietly lowered his head. He wanted to drill legal loopholes to scare Zhang Xiaohua. He also wanted to use the opportunity to impress the Cao father and daughter, but he was wrecked by Zhang Xiaohua.
Cao Dequan and Cao Feifei couldn't help but scrutinise Zhang Xiaohua. They couldn't believe how this former wastrel could become so shrewd and not only open a company but also write songs.
At this moment all the company's senior executives were speechless.
”Come on, stop diverting the topic.” Zhang Xiaohua reverted his attention back to Cao Dequan, and said: ”No one here is a child. Some things are needless to say. I don't want anymore c.r.a.p. Give me my money and I will leave immediately. I don't want to stay any longer in this snake nest.”
Cao Dequan felt pure hatred in his heart, he had never been so humiliated, but he maintained a smile on the surface, saying with a gentle tone: ”Xiaohua, I'll have the accountant send the correct amount to your account. Because last month the company's profit was limited, so only thirty thousand was sent instead. If you don't believe me, then I'll let the accountant get the company's bill of last month.”
Here, Cao Dequan winked at the accountant. The accountant was obviously a smart person. After he gave Cao Dequan a certain look, he made his way out of the conference room.
Twenty minutes later, the accountant returned to the conference room and placed the book in his hands in front of Zhang Xiaohua. He immediately cast a look on Cao Dequan and indicated that his task was completed.
When Zhang Xiaohua picked up the accounting book and opened it, he could not help but be dazzled. The dense numbers were like a sky full of stars. Everything could be added, subtracted, multiplied.
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua's face full of fog and confusion, the accountant smiled happily. Not to mention this young man, even some of the professionals from the Bureau of Industry and Commerce may not be able to distinguish between true and false from the numbers.
”The company's turnover last month was a total of 1.5 million yuan. You are owed 4% of the company's share. So, after deducting taxes, you should get 30,000 yuan. So I can prove that you had the correct amount from the shareholders dividends last month. In the past few minutes and in accordance with the chairman's instructions, I have already sent all of the company's account details to your email.”
After he listened to the accountant's remarks, Zhang Xiaohua immediately understood that it would be impossible for him to understand this account. Even if he could understand it, he would still be fooled by it.
No wonder the numbers just went on for so long, this turned out to be a fake accounting book. However, the speed of this accountant was surely amazing if he was able to make a falsified account statement in only 20 minutes. It showed Cao Dequan's requirements from his employees and what they were used for, it seemed that this Cao family was even shadier than he thought.
Although everyone on the scene knew that this was a false account report, under Cao Dequan's power no one spoke up. What's more, Cao Dequan was just targeting Zhang Xiaohua. It had nothing to do with them, as long as their own interests were not compromised they were fine with it. But some of the shareholders reminded themselves to keep an eye on that accountant and recheck their books later just in case.
Looking at the indifferent expressions in front of him, Zhang Xiaohua sneaked a sly grin and threw the books on the table. At the same time, he felt that he had played around enough, he took out the tax records from the tax bureau from his pocket.
Bang!
Throwing them on the table and not missing a beat, he questioned: ”I wonder if anyone in this room can explain this to me: How did the company pay over 17 million taxes last month, according to the tax rate, when the turnover was only 1.5 million RMB? Cause according to my calculations, you would need around 70 million in turnover before the due tax totals up to 17 million. Since I hold 4% of the shares, according to the ratio of total income, I should get at least 1 million in dividends, so why did I only receive 30,000 yuan?”.
