Love Me Harder, Mr. Fu Chapter 48
Advertisement
The company is all set for the awaiting meeting. Although some workers may have guessed about Shi Lian being the Chairman's daughter and the future Chairman still they dare not gossip about it. Ruxi gathered them in the morning and asked them to prepare the settings.
Shi Lian is with her father in the Chairman's office. He explains the things she needs to focus and she listens to him intently. She didn't prepare any speech and now she thinks she is in trouble. "Did you called all the press company to broadcast it?" she asks, trying to keep her mind off from the speech for a while.
"That's the job of our PR department. I told Ruxi to make sure the announcement should reach every people" he says, looking at her. "Don't be nervous. I will be there."
"I know. It's just…it's my first time doing this and on top of that I-"
"It's will be fine. I was nervous as well when my father told me that I will be the next Chairman. I was scared but slowly, I got the pace and I am working" he smiles reminiscing the past.
Shi Lian's grandfather died due to bone marrow cancer when she was seventeen years old. They tried searching every place for compatible bone marrow but unfortunately, they couldn't find one. Mo Zheng Yuan was the Vice Chairman at that time and when his father and the Chairman passed away, he had to be the one to control everything. His father already wrote in the documents that his elder son will take the position if something happens to him. It wasn't easy, not at all. His brothers were all jealous of him, trying their utmost to plot against him and snatch the position, they still are and now from Shi Lian.
"Your uncles will be coming as well," he says with a sigh like he doesn't want them here.
"I see" she mumbles but she knows on what purpose they will be here.
They do a little more talking about the meeting. A knock on the door and they know it's time. Zhang enters with a tablet in his hand; it's always there.
"Chairman, it's time" he informs entering inside. He smiles at Shi Lian and asks them to lead the way.
**
People, crowds of people. Cameras and microphones in their hands as they eagerly wait for what is going to happen here. They didn't get the whole information about the meeting. They were just told the meeting is meeting and they may get juicy news. Shi Lian, her father, and Zhang enter the room. The room gets noisy as the press started talking, whispering what's going to happen.

For today's special occasion Shi Lian thought to wear a red jumpsuit matching with black high heels and small studded diamond earrings. She didn't do much for the makeup as she thought she may look pasty and attention seeker. She doesn't need makeup, her skin is so clean and tight that she looks beautiful even without makeup.
The male reporters blush when they see Shi Lian entering. They never saw such a beautiful girl whose aura is radiantly powerful. Ruxi is already waiting for them on the podium. Everyone stands up as they make their way to the podium and take their seats.
"Everyone, please have a seat!" Zhang announces, his voice is loud from the microphone. All the shareholders, executives, workers of every department are present.
Shi Lian has never encountered this amount of people in her life. She also sees her two cousins sitting in the second row. Cai Li giving her bitchy attitude and gritting her teeth. Yin Zhen looks at her smiling like a puppy begging for her attention, which disgusts her.
"Zhang glances at Mo Zheng Yuan in an order to tell that he needs to proceed from here. Zheng Yuan nods and gets up from his seat. He heads to where the microphone is placed and readies himself for his speech.
"I, Mo Zheng Yuan, current Chairman of Mo Corps, is here to make an important decision. Before that…you all are already aware that our company is going down day by day and many of you must be thinking what is the Chairman doing? Does he even care? Well, it's reasonable for you to think like that. I am doing nothing, but watching my blood going down and down." He pauses as he becomes a little emotional but he steadies himself.
"Chairman! Are you implying that you are retiring from your position?" the media asks, curious and straightforward as ever.
"Something like that. To say, there will be a new Chairman now" he declares and there are roars and shrieks of all the people present there except the ones who already know.
"I present my daughter, Shi Lian, the next Chairman of Mo Corp!" he declares and everyone is either shocked and surprised. The people cannot help but whisper and mumble about it which can be heard by them.
"Mr. Mo, why do you take such a decision? Is your daughter has something to do with the decision?"

"Answer us, Mr. Mo!"
"Why your daughter? Why not someone else? Do you not trust your brothers?" The reporters ask hundreds of questions, some of which are ridiculous and personal.
Sucking in the air, she gets up and walks to her father. She is nervous but she cannot back down now, not now when she is in the middle of becoming the Chairman. Her father pats her shoulder lightly to encourage to which she smiles in return.
"Hello. I am Shi Lian. I am the Chairman now. I'll try to answer all your questions." She speaks calmly without any hesitation. She is getting in.
"Miss Shi, you are so young to be a Chairman! Do you think you are capable of it?"
"We never knew about your existence and now you just pop up from nowhere. What is your plan?" "What are your plans for the company?"
"Do you have the confidence to run it? Do you think you save it from going bankrupt?"
"A moment please. I'll answer every question" she states with seriousness. "First, I know I am very young to be a Chairman of such a big company. Honestly, I don't think I am capable enough to run the company like how my father or the ex-chairman di but I'll give my very best to make sure, Mo corp will be on the top. I have a little understanding about running a company as I never did it before. If you talk about capability, I don't think it's up to you or me who knows how much or what more I can do. You only need to wait and watch." She doesn't stop. She is not nervous now, she has got the momentum and now is ready to face all the hurdles that are going to be thrown at her today.
"What profit would it do if you knew about my identity? I didn't live there and there's something called privacy and security for their child, that's what my father did. If you are implying that I am not his daughter or something, then I don't think I need to answer because I am his one and only daughter. The heiress of Mo" her sharp answers makes everyone stunned and impressed.
"Miss Shi, you seem to be arrogant and confident that you will save the company. what if you failed?" a woman in her twenties with a big mole on her chin asks, gathering some courage. Shi Lian gives her a steely look that made her shiver but she didn't back down.
"You had to have to be arrogant when you are managing such a big company. you can't be a coward and a follower, following others' orders. Secondly, failing shouldn't be in your options. I prefer to win rather than lose."
"A you said that you didn't live here, where were you then? Can you answer Miss Shi?"
"Does it matter? Are you that interested in my private life?" she asks haughtily to the man who asked the question. The man in a blue shirt is speechless and sweating profusely. He glances to his side, realizing that the other reporters beside him are mockingly laughing at him.
"Miss Shi Lian, what are your plans for the company?"
"If I tell my plans, wouldn't it be disclosing my secrets? Three months, within three months, the company will be in a stable condition and I guarantee that" she states without even thinking twice. Her father, Ruxi, everyone is stunned by her words. Making a company stable in just three months is not an easy job and it's more difficult when your company is degrading more and more.
"According to the sources, you were present at the conference that was held two days ago in the Da Silva Hotel. Recently the Fu's and Mo's have joined hands and signed a business partnership. Is it just a business collaboration or there's more to that?" a reporter who was also present in that meeting asks, adjusting his spectacles.
"True, we are now business partners. I don't have an actual answer for that. Why don't you ask Mr. Fu by yourself? He will surely answer your question." She asserts nonchalantly. She is savage today. She had enough of the nonsense with these reporters. She always wanted to teach these reporters a lesson, and today is just perfect. Her image may look bad but she doesn't care about that. She is having fun mocking them.
