Chapter 1744 - The Father and Son of the Xiao Corporation (1/2)
It was 9:30 P.M. when the signing ceremony officially started.
Leading Lanxin Company, Wen Xinya, accompanied by Yan Shaoqing and Zheng Yifan, walked with the representatives of Xiasi Group for the signing ceremony to the adjacent hall, which was designated for the occasion.
Representatives from both companies got seated on the main stage.
The reporters pointed their cameras and video recorders towards the scene which would cause a huge stir in the world.
Following that, witnessed by the media reporters as well as the reputable characters in the business world, the cooperating parties penned their signatures on the shareholding contract.
After exchanging the contracts with each other, the signing ceremony officially ended with mutual handshakes.
The entire process was extraordinarily smooth.
A thunderous wave of applause echoed through the hall.
Lanxin Company had completed another historical step after getting listed. This moment made everyone cheer for Lanxin Company and China’s health supplements market.
The banquet hall was filled with people dressed to the nines who gradually stepped onto the dance floor.
There were also many men who came forward to ask Wen Xinya for a dance but were all politely rejected by her. What a joke—not far away stood a petty, evil, domineering, and extremely possessive man who was staring hard at her—regardless of how bold she was, she daren’t dance with other men.
Wen Xinya found an opportunity and was about to look for Si Yiyan to talk to him.
Just then, Xiao Zhiyuan walked over with Xiao Chengyu.
Xiao Zhiyuan was holding a glass of red wine. Being almost fifty-years-old, trails of weathered storms were engraved on his face. “Miss Bella, congratulations on the smooth listing of Lanxin Company, as well as Xiasi Group joining Lanxin Company as a shareholder.”
In recent years, the Xiao Family had been following T-K Corporation and Lanxin Company’s acquisition war closely.
For the Xiao Family which had been through the home electronics acquisition crisis, they knew how arduous the acquisition felt more so than anyone else. Thus, the Xiao Family was also a supporter of Lanxin Company’s resistance towards acquisitions.
The Xiao Family was in awe of Bella’s victory in this acquisition war.
Wen Xinya stopped in her tracks and said with a smile, “Chairman Xiao is too kind. It’s Lanxin Company’s honor to have your presence at our celebratory banquet today. Please forgive us if we haven’t been great hosts.”
Previously, the Xiao Family had been attacked by the Wen Corporation. In the third year following the exposure of Xiao Zhiyuan’s scandal, he had finally divorced his wife after trying his best to hold onto the marriage, causing a stir in the shareholding structure of the Xiao Corporation.
Finally, it wasn’t until Lin Yuechan came forward and transferred her shares to her son, Xiao Chengyu, that the storm ceased gradually.
Following that, Xiao Chengyu entered Xiao Corporation, started out from the very bottom, and successfully clinched the role of the CEO of Xiao Corporation recently.
Currently, Xiao Corporation had been weakened as a whole and was slightly weaker than the Wen Family.
Putting Xiao Corporation and Wen Corporation’s grudges aside, on account of the Xiao Family resisting acquisitions and supporting Lanxin Company, she ought to receive Xiao Zhiyuan’s greetings politely.
Xiao Zhiyuan laughed out loud. “Miss Bella is really too polite. The young replace the old—it’s just a matter of time that this business world becomes the stage of you young people.” Following that, he changed the topic smoothly and started introducing his son. “This is my son, Xiao Chengyu. He has always admired Miss Bella and hopes to befriend you.”
Mentioning this son made Xiao Zhiyuan swollen with pride.
