Yun Nan took over the Shi Corporation at lightning speed and temporarily took over the chairman position, heavy-handedly quelling all the shareholders. Every shareholder came out of the Shi Corporation’s conference room with a complicated expression that day, but their statements were surprisingly unanimous when faced with the reporters waiting outside for the breaking news.
“The entire Shi Corporation stands united. We believe in Shi Nian and Yun Nan and trust they’ll lead us through this crisis. We support them unconditionally!”
Although this news was explosive, it didn’t meet the expectations of the reporters and the mastermind behind them. Hence, they staked out the Shi Corporation’s headquarters building and waited for Yun Nan. Yun Nan didn’t come out of the Shi Corporation’s building until dusk, with the special assistant, Chang Yuan, and two secretaries following at her side.
Chang Yuan was reporting to Yun Nan with a serious expression as he walked, and Yun Nan nodded as she listened. Seeing them, the reporters in the lobby rushed over and surrounded the four. Chang Yuan and the two secretaries tried their best to protect Yun Nan from being swarmed, and they shouted for security when they found they couldn’t stop the reporters.
The reporters didn’t waste a minute and bombarded Yun Nan with questions. “Director Yun, do you know the Shi Corporation’s administrative rules? Isn’t it disrespectful to the Shi Corporation’s shareholders to come in out of nowhere and take over?”
“Director Yun, is the Shi family treating the Shi Corporation as a joke?”
“Is the Shi Corporation going to be privatized? Then who’ll guarantee the interests of the shareholders and retail investors?”
“Director Yun, may I ask when you started planning to take over the Shi family?
Marrying Shi Nian was the first step of your plan, right?”
“Director Yun, you managed to take down the Shi Corporation in such a short time. Please share your insights with us!”
The reporters scrambled to hand and point their various types of equipment at Yun Nan, squeezing and pushing against each other. Seeing this, Yun Nan snatched one of the microphones that was thrust at her face and shouted into it, “Call the police immediately. Someone’s causing trouble here! Everybody, calm down! If a trample incident occurs, then each and every one of you is culpable!”
Her stern voice echoed throughout the lobby. Everyone was stunned and froze. Chang Yuan saw the opportunity and swiftly shielded Yun Nan as he pushed her to the bar counter in the corner of the lobby and took the mic from her. He called the police on his phone, and the call connected before anyone else could react.
Chang Yuan looked at the surrounding reporters coldly and reported the address to the police operator. “There’s someone causing trouble here, attempting to stir up trouble by deliberately pushing and squeezing in a crowd!”
Chang Yuan’s glance swept through the crowd after he hung up the phone. “The Shi Corporation has maintained a good cooperative relationship with all media outlets that uphold the spirit of media and abide by professional ethics. However, we won’t tolerate heinous behavior such as inciting emotions, falsifying facts, or making up fictitious stories.”
He continued, “Think about it. If a trampling incident happened today because you guys were aggressively going after a story and resulted in casualties, then wouldn’t each and every one of you standing here right now be culpable?”
“I believe that some of you are indeed here for news, but you’ve been pulled into a trap without knowing it! Think about it: Did someone deliberately push you from behind during the commotion just now? Think back to the scene: Was the person who pushed you someone you know, or are they your rivals? What were their motives in doing so?”
As soon as Chang Yuan said this, the reporters, cameramen, and media staff immediately looked around, examining each other before they started blaming each other. Yun Nan inwardly smiled when she saw this scene, thinking, ‘ Chang Yuan is indeed brilliant. ICs no surprise that the Shi brothers trust him so much.’
The police arrived at the scene very quickly, and thanks to the media staff’s help in identification, they forcefully pulled out more than a dozen fake ‘media personnel’ who’d taken advantage of the chaos to cause trouble and took them away on the spot.
This turn of events caused an abrupt change in the lobby’s atmosphere. The crowd’s initial righteous indignation and fervor cooled. Only then did Yun Nan pick up the microphone again. She bowed to the media staff and stated, “First of all, thank you for your concern and love for the Shi family and the Shi Corporation.”
“Shi Nian had a sudden car accident, and although his condition has stabilized, he still needs to recuperate. His parents and grandfather aren’t in the best of health, so as a member of the Shi family, it’s my responsibility to shoulder this burden.”
“The Shi Corporation has long had its own mature operating system and method of operation. Although I’m temporarily taking over Shi Nian’s position, it won’t impact the Shi Corporation’s normal operations much. Friends and partners who work with the Shi Corporation, please rest assured on this point. The Shi Corporation’s sky hasn’t changed and will still be clear and bright when the dark clouds dissipate!”
The crowd burst into applause at her speech..
