Chapter 1561: Mo Xicheng Reinstated (34)
The situation in front of him was changing too rapidly and he was defenseless.
Not long ago, they had been discussing whether Mo Xicheng could remain as a CEO, since his reputation had been damaged. Yet now, they were talking about Mo Zhi’s stealing from the company to invest in shares and earn money for himself.
Comparing the two incidents, the latter was obviously worse.
The former didn’t have a choice when it came to his status, as he had been born with it, but as for the latter, Mo Zhi, everyone knew that he had been doing atrocious acts in the company for the past few years. But if it wasn’t due to something unbearable, who would be willing to allow an illegitimate son to manage the company?
Now that Mo Zhi had been behaving increasingly worse and had done such an unreasonable crime, he rendered everyone speechless for quite some time.
Gao Feng just stood up and pointed at Mo Zhi while reprimanding him, “You’re wrong! It was never just yours. All those funds belong to the company and not you as an individual! If you take the funds to use them for personal gain, it is violating the economic regulations of the country. If the company sues you, you will be put in jail!”
Mo Zhi was shocked by his words and his face turned pale. He gulped and spoke in disbelief, “This- this impossible.”
Gao Feng took a deep breath and frowned. Then he turned to his assistant and asked, “Why hasn’t Chairman Mo arrived? How can the board meeting of the company be held without Chairman Mo?! Does he even know what had happened in the company today?!”
The assistant spoke, “I have already called the chairman, he should be here soon.”
Gao Feng nodded and his glance swept across everyone present. He spoke in his sunken voice, “The current situation of the company is that we no longer have any funds! The company might owe a huge sum for the breach of contract if we don’t manage to send money to Director Wang by next month. And our reputation would also suffer a lot if our employees do not receive their wages in time and cause trouble.”
Then he pointed at Mo Xicheng again. “Everyone, look at him. Ever since he entered the company, you all know and have seen what he has done. And now, between him and Mo Zhi, who do you think is more suitable as the company’s CEO?!”
After he said so, everyone kept silent.
Honestly, everyone knew deep in their hearts that Mo Xicheng was more capable and Mo Zhi was just a blockhead.
They had all been tired of Mo Zhi for some time and now that someone had stepped up, they were obviously willing to follow.
Seeing the expressions on everyone’s faces, Mo Zhi was even more flustered. He glanced at his subordinate, who he had personally invited, and that person immediately stood up. “Ok, we should discuss first how to deal with the public opinion crisis! The media does not know about the problems with CEO Mo, Mo Zhi. Besides, the situation isn’t even as bad as Director Gao put it. At the end of the month, after selling the shares, won’t the company still have the money? CEO Mo is still young and his occasional mistakes were also to help the company earn money. The reason why he took the funds to buy shares must have been for the company and not for himself. Am I right, CEO Mo?”
After Mo Zhi heard his words, he instantly nodded and said, “Yes, yes, I’m doing this for the company. I would definitely give the company all the benefits from the stocks!”
