Among the hundred-plus shareholders present, other than Justin, who occupied 46%—the second branch occupied 5%, and the third branch only occupied 1%. This was because the third branch had transferred their shares to Justin previously. This was also Grandpa Hunt's wish. He did not want the shares to be divided, so when they separated back then, they had taken fewer shares and more cash.
Over the years, Justin had privately given them the dividends for the other four percent of the shares.
Other than them taking the majority, the rest of the shares were concentrated on a few shareholders.
One of these was Justin's subordinate, Sean. Sean held 5% of the shares. Philip had spent a lot of money to buy 5%, and the six uncertain shareholders accounted for 5%.
Actually, it was not the entire board of directors. Only the six of them were uncertain. It was mainly because the other shareholders occupied too few shares. Some people could even be ignored.
There were a few dozen people, but they only accounted for 1%.
Herman had spent a lot of money in private to purchase 20% of the shares, almost spending all his savings over the years.
Coupled with the 5% Justin had given him, Philip's 5% was also managed by him. Therefore, he had a total of 30% of the shares.
Herman found a few other shareholders and forced them to lean toward him. Therefore, he did not care that four-fifths of the dozens of shareholders did not support him.
This was because their shares added up to only 1%.
In addition, Mrs. Hunt still had 5% of Hunt Corporation's shares. The other shareholders had agreed to his request and even received benefits from him... After some calculations, Herman felt that victory was within his grasp!
He stood up and said, "Alright, Justin. I'm already the president of the company. I'll have to arrange your next job. Are you going to stay in the company or what? However, I don't think any other company will dare to take you in, right?"
Justin raised his eyebrows.
Raymond added insult to injury. "Herman, I object to Justin staying! Unless he apologizes to all of us for his arrogance in the past!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open. The little girl in the pantry brought the tea cart in and served everyone coffee.
When Raymond saw this, he waved his hand. "Go out."
Then, he looked at Justin. "Justin, do it instead. You've been unreasonable in the company all these years. How many people have you reprimanded? Apologize to everyone now. We're not that petty. If your apology is sincere enough, we'll agree to let you stay in the company!"
Spencer frowned. "Raymond, you're going overboard!"
With that said, Raymond sneered. "Spencer, don't say such stupid things here. After all, you've been eating for free all these years, right? You haven't done anything and haven't been scolded either. How can you understand our heartache of being scolded by a junior? Heh!"
Raymond felt like he had turned over a new leaf. He pointed at the coffee cart and said, "Justin, let's start with Raymond. I want two spoons of sugar, not milk."
Justin:
He remained sitting there steadily and did not move at all.
Raymond frowned and looked at him. "Aren't you going to move? Why? Will you only apologize if the president says so himself?"
