Chapter 280 Their Thoughts Were too Naive
The bustling conference center suddenly fell silent. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the two new leaders who walked in.
Ludwig Mavis was the newly appointed president of the Tangerine Group. The staff had already known him. But as the elegant and noble lady stepped onto the stage, the staff presented all felt surprised and curious.
She was Cecelia Linsey!
She was the daughter of former chairman Gary Linsey. But she personally overthrew Gary's leadership in the Linsey Group and joined forces with the Middlebox Group to get rid of Gary and his team. Now, she alone was the ultimate leader of the Tangerine Group.
Such a woman, with an iron fist, single-handedly accomplished a revolution in leadership of this group. It could be imagined how terrifying she was.
Amidst the shock, people were curious about how the Tangerine Group would develop from now on. Similarly, they were curious about what Cecelia's next move would be.
'Will she target us?' These executives wondered.
Just as everyone was speculating, Ludwig presided over and said, "Dear colleagues, greetings to everyone. I am Ludwig Mavis, the Executive President of the Tangerine Group. I am honored to host this middle and senior management meeting today.
"As everyone knows, the Linsey Group has now become the Tangerine Group. So I would like to introduce our new chairman, Cecelia Linsey!"
At that moment, everyone looked towards Cecelia. Even if they hadn't interacted with Cecelia personally, they knew who she was.
Many of the senior employees present were relatives or in-laws of the Linsey family. Seeing Cecelia become the chairman, these former loyalists of Gary looked down upon her.
"Cecelia, you are Mr. Linsey's daughter. But your actions are truly confusing. You overthrown your father's position. Was it necessary for you to do this?"
"A few years ago, when I first saw you, you were just a little girl. And now you have actually ousted your own father. This is a great betrayal!"
The two people accusing Cecelia were David Linsey, the head of the sales department and Gary Linsey's cousin, and Stephen Copper, the head of the production department and a distant in-law of Gary Linsey.
"You are so young. What achievements can you make? Even if your father made a mistake, we, the experienced veterans, are still in the company, right? It's not very empathetic of you to be so ruthless!"
"That's right! The Linsey Group is a huge company. It won't go bankrupt so soon! I think we should make decisions after Mr. Linsey comes back!"
David Linsey and Stephen Copper both opposed Cecelia taking over the company. Everyone had serious doubts about her abilities, considering she was too young.
They still supported Gary in their hearts and wanted to have Gary to return and take control of the company.
Cecelia had already figured out what they were thinking about.
Although Gary made so many mistakes, he had a vested interest in these executives.
As long as Gary was in power, he could provide them with the greatest benefits. Once Gary was overthrown, their interests would also be affected. This was the main reason they were opposing Cecelia.
Because Cecelia's intervention disrupted their original interest net. That was why they couldn't stand her.
Cecelia coldly slapped the table, which made a crisp slapping sound. She scanned the crowd and said in an extremely dominant tone, "David, Stephen, and other executives present, I guess that you are still in dreams, are you? The Linsey Group you mentioned no longer exists. Now, this is the Tangerine Group, and I have the highest authority in the Tangerine Group!
"If anyone is dissatisfied or doesn't agree with the new company rules, you can go to the finance department to get your last salary!"
David immediately stood up, with a stern expression, and questioned Cecelia, "Cecelia, at the very least, I am your elder. You should address me as Uncle. Are you trying to drive us away? What do you want to do?"
