I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 763: Veto Power

"What do you mean by 'will not happen'? Ye Chen, let me tell you, this matter has already been publicized, and soon, relevant departments will intervene and initiate an investigation against you. Thus, you will definitely carry the burden of this lawsuit, and our company absolutely will not keep someone with such a stain. So, my idea is very simple, we need to fire him immediately, even terminate all his contracts with the company."

"Yes, I agree."

"Indeed, I share the same thought. Only by kicking such people out of the company can we present a reasonable outcome to the media and the public, ensuring their continued trust and support for our company."

Ye Chen could only helplessly shake his head, feeling that these people were gradually dragging him into a vast conspiracy and trap.

They probably did this because he had somehow infringed upon someone's interests.

He was unclear about whose interests he might have infringed. He hadn't even secured his position yet when such a big issue erupted, which the company was likely unable to tolerate.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do not forget, during my grandfather's time, there was such a rule that the chairman has a veto right at the shareholders' meeting. No matter how much you support this matter, I can still veto your decision with my vote."

Suddenly, Hongyu spoke with an imposing tone, and at that moment, everyone's gaze turned towards him.

"Hongyu, you are the one we watched grow up. Let me tell you, this veto right, even your grandfather in his time, had never used it. Are you sure you want to use your veto right for such a young man?"

"That's right, I will use my veto right if you insist on doing this."

"Do you know how great a loss it would be to you once the veto right is invoked? Are you really willing to make such a sacrifice for one person?"

"Let me tell you, if it weren't for Mr. Ye, our company's ghostly issues would still persist. Isn't it resolved very well now? He is a rare talent; we shouldn't erase his previous merits over this one matter."

"I really can't understand, is such a trivial issue really worth causing such a big fuss? In my view, it's you young people believing too much in superstitions. Maybe the phenomenon wasn't even caused by what we think, and perhaps it would dissipate over time."

"Yes, I've said before, we shouldn't bother with it. Over time, everything will naturally disappear, and it won't cause any other trouble. So, you are just making a mountain out of a molehill."

"Anyway, no matter what, I have decided to use my veto right, provided that you really insist on doing this."

"Hongyu, are you really determined to make such a sacrifice for such a person? Don't forget, the sacrifices your grandfather made to put you in your position today. Moreover, this action of yours is very detrimental to your current position, do you understand?"

"No matter what, I have decided to use my veto right."

"Mr. Guo, you don't need to."

At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly stood up.

Though he did not understand what harm the veto right could bring him, he guessed from the reactions of others that it must be significantly damaging.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't overdo it, and since the matter is not yet clear, I hope you can keep a stable mindset. Since the relevant departments have not yet initiated an investigation against me or even given a final reason, you baselessly make this verdict, do you think that is appropriate?"

"What is appropriate or not? The incident has already happened, and even if you want to argue, I'm afraid no one will give you the chance, so I advise you to save your energy."

"Alright, if you really insist on doing this, then I accept your decision this time. Starting now, I will voluntarily leave the company and will not interfere in any company matters anymore. Mr. Guo, you don't need to worry about me." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Ye Chen knew that continuing to stay under these circumstances would only make it increasingly difficult for Hongyu in the company.

If he truly wanted to help Hongyu, he could find other ways without continuing in the company under such circumstances.

"No, I've already said that here, the president has a veto right, so what I say goes."

"Alright, alright, let's not argue anymore. Please listen to a fair statement from me."

At this moment, a person sitting in the corner, who had been silent, finally slowly stood up.

No one else stood beside him, except for two assistants.

As he stood up, the two quickly approached and helped him over.

"Everyone, can I ask for a favor?"

"Sure, go ahead, Elder Li."

Upon seeing him, Hongyu seemed to show great respect.

However, calling him Elder Li indicated that he might be from the same generation as Guo Tao, possibly even holding a higher status.

"Young people make mistakes, and we should give them a chance to correct them. However, this young man's mistake is also very grave. Thus, we will not make any decisions today. If in the future he is found to have a criminal record, or if this matter is thoroughly investigated and is significantly related to him, then, sorry, but he must leave the company, including you, Hongyu, you also cannot use your veto right. This isn't something to be taken lightly, understand?"

"But we should give him a chance, right? Are we not to allow him to make mistakes?"
