My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 616 Never Been A Slave

Silence descended upon the meeting room again as they fell into a stalemate. “Why aren’t you talking?” Nan Zhengde scanned everyone. However, no one spoke a word.

“You’re still young, so you still have time to waste. On the other hand, I’m old, and I need to rest. If you aren’t talking, I’m going to leave now. You can figure out who to choose as the new CEO.” Nan Zhengde stood up. “Don’t leave, Mr. Nan!” Some members of the board of directors panicked.

“What’s there left to discuss? Even though you disagreed with my suggestion, you refused to offer another candidate when I asked you to. How can we continue discussing this?” rebuked Nan Zhengde.

“We’ve already reached an agreement for one part. However, you need to compromise too. At the very least, you should stay in the company as a consultant, right? Considering Mr. Xing’s current capabilities, he cannot become the CEO of the company. You know that very well,” said another director.

“It’s not like I won’t intervene at all.” Nan Zhengde was still reluctant to concede.

At that moment, a director stood up. “What about this? We can put him on probation for three months. If he does a good job after three months, we’ll just accept fate. If he doesn’t, we’ll discuss this again. What do you think?”

The director who made that suggestion was the first person whom Nan Zhengde visited with his own calligraphy.

“In that case, he’ll only be the surrogate CEO who’ll manage the work on behalf of Mr. Chen temporarily. Any important decisions will need to go through the board of directors first,” agreed another director.

This director was also one of those who received Nan Zhengde’s calligraphy.

It was obvious that although these words were spoken by others, they were representative of Nan Zhengde’s opinion.

“I disagree. If he’s merely the surrogate CEO, there are a lot of things that he can’t do,” objected Nan Zhengde.

If it was Nan Zhengde’s own opinion, there should be no reason for him to object.

However, he believed that if Ouyang Duo wanted to conquer Nanshi Corporation, Ouyang Duo would definitely need an internal spy.

In other words, he wants to appoint Nan Xing as the CEO directly. Yet, a director said that Nan Xing is still not capable enough. He can only be put on probation for three months.
