Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints

Chapter 546 - 236: Like a Rat Crossing the Street (Part 2)

Hultas James asked, "Can we speed this up a bit? I urgently need a surefire project to report back to the head office, or else I can’t explain the double rental costs for the office space. Alternatively, can we confirm in advance that our audit will definitely be approved, so I have something to report back to the head office?"

Li Junhao replied with a smile, "We are a state-owned company, and we must submit our report for review. However, I can assure you that as long as the information you provided is accurate, it will definitely pass the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission review. We’ll follow up with a shareholders’ meeting for approval; as long as our commission agrees, other shareholders will surely agree too. Oh, by the way, there is one shareholder who might be uncertain. Our second-largest shareholder is quite a unique thinker, and he holds a significant proportion of shares; his opinion is extremely important. If he disagrees, even if our commission agrees, the vote might not pass. Let me make a call to discuss with him first. Once he agrees, it’s in the bag."

Hultas James nodded enthusiastically and said, "Alright! Mr. Li, please call the second-largest shareholder right away."

Li Junhao nodded with a smile and called Yang Chen.

The call was quickly answered.

Li Junhao: "Mr. Yang, how have you been lately?"

Yang Chen: "Long time no see, Chairman Li. I’ve missed you greatly; how could I be well? I’ve come to Eastern Airlines specifically to see you."

Li Junhao: "Ah? Really? Where are you now?"

Yang Chen: "We are almost at Eastern Airlines, just minutes away. Yiren is coming to hold a meeting with the flight attendants, and I’m dropping her off."

Li Junhao: "Haha... Great! I’ll head to the gate to welcome you."

Before Yang Chen could refuse, Li Junhao hung up the phone.

Li Junhao, while getting dressed, said to James, "Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives. Mr. James, please follow me. We’ll go to welcome our second-largest shareholder now. You should say some nice things to him face-to-face. Once he agrees, your Huasheng allocation is as good as done."

Hultas James was delighted and excitedly said, "Let’s go, let’s go; we’ll go greet him now."

This excited Hultas James to no end, pulling Li Junhao along to greet Eastern Airlines’ second-largest shareholder.

The two of them waited at the gate.

Li Junhao was quite composed, but Hultas James was extremely excited, looking around anxiously.

Despite his daily pretense, he was actually quite anxious inside.

His first task in Dragon Country had gone awry; renting office space at triple the price without landing a project, and his work report was due soon. He had no idea how to explain it to the head office.

If he managed to quickly secure the Eastern Airlines allocation, he could send a report to the head office.

Li Junhao noticed James’ tension and smiled, reassuring him, "Mr. James, no need to be so nervous. As I said earlier, Mr. Yang is a very approachable person. As long as you treat him with sufficient respect, he will do the same for you. Our commission agreed to Huasheng joining, and he will also agree."

James awkwardly smiled and said, "I understand, I understand..."

Minutes later, Yang Chen arrived in the BMW Z4 gifted to Lin Yiren.

Li Junhao waved with a smile at Yang Chen and then remarked to the already stunned James, "Mr. James, this is our second-largest shareholder, Mr. Yang. Let’s go and say hello."

With that, Li Junhao welcomed them himself, but James stood frozen in place.

Li Junhao stepped forward to greet Yang Chen and Lin Yiren and said, "Mr. Yang, this is Huasheng..."

Yang Chen interrupted, "I know them. Yiren, park the car inside; I’ll go greet my old friend."

Lin Yiren nodded, Yang Chen got out of the car, and she drove into the company.

Li Junhao asked happily, "Mr. Yang, you know him?"

Yang Chen took out his phone and opened TikTok, quickly finding the video of Hultas James insulting Dragon Country people at Tang Pavilion.

The more Li Junhao watched, the wider his eyes grew; the commission leaders would certainly not agree to such a company participating in Eastern Airlines’ allocation!

Hultas James asked helplessly, "Why do you seem to be everywhere? How many enterprises do you actually have?"

Yang Chen replied with a smile, "Not too many, I can still manage. Why, are you interested in investing in Eastern Airlines? Are you trying to secure the last allocation slot?"

Hultas James, feeling guilty, nodded and said, "Yes. Will you... agree?"

Yang Chen laughed heartily, "What do you think? Don’t..."

Before Yang Chen could finish, several passersby walked up, pointing fingers at Hultas James, interrupting him.

"Isn’t this the foreigner who cursed?"

"Let me see; yep, it’s him. Look, the position of the bandage on his face matches."

"Are you the foreigner who insulted us? Are you with East Dragon Airlines?"

"How could East Dragon Airlines hire such a person? I won’t fly Eastern Airlines anymore; as long as any Dragon Country person with feelings must blacklist Eastern Airlines!"

...

Li Junhao was terrified and quickly explained, "Please don’t misunderstand; this person has nothing to do with us or Eastern Airlines. He wants to invest in our company but was severely rejected and kicked out by me. Eastern Airlines belongs to Dragon Country people; we firmly resist such trash that insults Dragon Country people! As long as I am still the Chairman of Eastern Airlines, I will never agree to U.S. Huasheng investing in us!"
