Chapter 184 Board of Directors
Lin Fan's life continued as usual; he would pick up Su Ruowei from work and take her home on time.
Gao Xuan also announced the sect's new rules.
The moment the new regulations were announced, the sects of Shancheng City were filled with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.
Large sects received more financial support, while fake sects were immediately banned.
Meanwhile, undercurrents were also swirling within the Shancheng Group.
The group's board members suffered direct losses amounting to billions overnight.
Chairman Lin Tianhu convened a meeting of board members overnight to discuss countermeasures.
Lin Tianhu is Lin Tiancheng's younger brother and Lin Fan's second grandfather.
Although he was a collateral branch of the Lin family in the mountain city, his position was extremely important.
When Lin Tiancheng wiped out his wife's entire family, Lin Tianhu offered advice and contributed tremendous resources.
Lin Tianhu is only 80 years old, but he is still in good spirits and vigorous.
More than 10 members of Lin Tianhu's lineage across three generations are all board members of the Shancheng Group.
In other words, the board of directors of Shancheng Group is Lin Tianhu's faction.
The existence of the board of directors is the best proof of the close relationship between the two brothers, Lin Tiancheng and Lin Tianhu.
But now the president of Shancheng Group is named Lin Fan, and the era of the older generation will come to an end in just a few days.

Longshou Mountain Villa District is the private residence of the Shancheng Group, where Lin Tianhu's lineage lives.
At 2 a.m., the lights were still on in one of the villas.
Inside the villa's conference room, three generations of people—old, middle-aged, and young—were plotting something.
Lin Tianhu sat upright in his high position, his hands crossed, holding a golden cane with a skull carved on the top.
The skull cane was a gift from Lin Tiancheng, symbolizing his status as the second-in-command of the Shancheng Group.
Lin Tiancheng instructed Lin Tianhu that if any of his descendants disrespected him, he could take out his cane and whip them at will.
Lin Tiancheng also said that regardless of their status, whether they are prominent officials or successors to the presidency, they should kneel down upon seeing the cane as if they were seeing Lin Tiancheng.
The discussion was in full swing, and it was ultimately decided to suspend the Southern Business District project and use part of the funds invested in the Southern Business District to compensate the board members for the losses incurred in the sect's transformation.
Meanwhile, Lin Tianhu also decided to personally lead the board members to the southern business district tomorrow to oversee operations.
The next day, August 3th.
Su Ruowei Company will hold a monthly meeting to discuss whether the company should transform.
After breakfast, Lin Fan and Su Ruowei got into the car.
While organizing documents in the passenger seat, Su Ruowei said to Lin Fan:
"Honey, come with me to the company meeting. We're discussing the company's transformation today. Help me make some decisions."
Su Ruowei has recently learned a lot from Gu Xinyan, one of which is about how to address someone.
You can't call me by my full name anymore; you have to call me "husband."
Su Ruowei thought she would be shy, but she didn't expect to call out so naturally.
This is not surprising. A series of recent events have made her and Lin Fan's relationship closer. They are inseparable every day on their way to and from get off work, and they have become accustomed to each other without realizing it.
"Yes, Mr. Su—"
Lin Fan noticed the difference in address and was a little puzzled, but there were too many things about Su Ruowei that he couldn't figure out lately.
"Um--"
Su Ruowei pouted; Lin Fan's address of her as "President Su" annoyed her.
After arriving at the company, Lin Fan and his wife went to the conference room to prepare materials for the upcoming meeting.
Before the meeting, Lin Fan answered a phone call from Gao Xuan.
Lin Fan was fully aware of Lin Tianhu's actions.
At 10 a.m., all the collateral relatives of the Su family were in place, and the meeting officially began.
Looking at the documents, Su Ruowei began the meeting: "Today, I've gathered everyone to discuss the company's transformation. As we all know—"
"I disagree!"
Before Su Ruowei could finish speaking, Su Caijun interrupted her directly:
"The Su family has been in the construction business for generations, so why is it that you, Su Ruowei, are switching to this business?"
“Our Su family has accumulated decades of experience and resources, which you, Su Ruowei, cannot simply change.”
Other members of the collateral relatives echoed this sentiment:
“Caijun is right. Our Su family has always been doing this. The risk of transformation is too great, and we cannot guarantee profitability.”
Su Ruowei took a deep breath:
"I have completed all the necessary qualifications for the company's transformation a few days ago, and I have also contacted loan providers and partners."
"You don't need to worry about the profits. You just need to do your jobs. We will distribute profits to everyone in due course."
Su Ruowei had already taken care of everything; the purpose of this meeting was simply to gain everyone's support.
Lin Fan sat to the side, somewhat shocked. When did Su Ruowei become so assertive?
It's true what they say, "A scholar should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation."
"Su Ruowei, you can transform the company, but you have to hand over the project in the southern business district!"
Seeing that the transformation was inevitable, Su Caijun could only try to gain some benefits from it.
The other members of the collateral relatives understood what was meant and followed suit:
"Yes, after the company's transformation, it's going into a different industry. Why not separate the project in the southern business district and let Caijun take charge of it?"
Hearing this, Su Ruowei frowned slightly: "Okay, no problem!"
Transforming the company into an investment company was Su Ruowei's own dream. Everyone has their own ambitions, and she didn't force the Su family to support her.
Giving up the project in the southern business district can be considered a form of compensation to the Su family who raised them.
Su Caijun was somewhat puzzled by Su Ruowei's quick agreement:
"Are you sure? You want me to handle the project in the southern business district?"
Su Ruowei nodded: "I'm sure. From now on, Su Caijun will be in charge of the Southern Business District project."
“Those who are willing to follow him, please speak up now. The rest of you will follow me to start a new company.”
Su Caijun's eyes lit up, and he raised his arms and shouted, "Who wants to come with me!"
Su Ruowei was able to support this project from her small office in the suburbs, which shows that the project's requirements were not high.
Su Caijun was naturally aware of all this, and the collateral relatives were also well aware of it.
Su Caijun thought to himself that after breaking away from Su Ruowei, all the profits could be his own, and there was no need to shout slogans like "strengthening the Su family." He could make money comfortably.
“I’ll go with Caijun.”
"And I!"
"..."
At Su Caijun's call, all the collateral branches of the Su family responded without exception.
Seeing that Su Caijun received such a great deal of support, Su Ruowei smiled helplessly.
She was mentally prepared, but she still felt somewhat disappointed when she actually saw that she was not popular.
The Su family never took Su Ruowei seriously, and even after she became the head of the family, she still couldn't gain their approval.
Oh well, everyone has their own ambitions, and we can't force them.
"A verbal agreement isn't enough; you need to sign an agreement with me."
“After you assign me the projects in the southern business district, I will set up a separate company with them.”
With the support of a group of collateral relatives, Su Caijun became even more unscrupulous.
