Chapter: 2335

"So, let's proceed with the next vote, which means selecting one person from among us 17 to be our new chairman. Each and every one of us has the right to cast a vote or receive votes, with each person limited to one vote. Whoever gets the most votes will become our new chairman!" he continued.

"That's because this position is extremely important for Song Family Group," he added, "so we'll be adopting a secret ballot system this time around to prevent any behind-the-scenes manipulation."

The expressions of those present changed slightly, looking at each other uneasily.

While the secret ballot system was fair within the boardroom, it would also bring about a significant hidden danger, that being settling scores later on.

If you voted for someone but they ended up getting this position, they would surely bear a grudge against you and even go out of their way to cause trouble for you.

If this person is extremely cautious, they might even plot revenge years down the line, going all out to exact retribution from you.

Anyone facing such a person would be helpless against them.

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately raised his hand and said, "Since you're going to vote, I'll make an example for everyone. I'm nominating Song Tianming, Mr. Song, as the new chairman of the Song family group, and I'll cast my one vote for him."

Song Tianming smiled slightly at this moment: "Since we're in a board meeting where anyone has the right to elect or be elected, I'll also cast my vote for myself! I believe I can lead the Song family group through tough times and bring about new glory."

Someone else immediately spoke up: "I'll also vote for Mr. Song Tianming!"

"Count me in!" someone else quickly added.

Song Rongui said calmly: "So, Mr. Song Tianming has already received four votes. Let's all hurry up and cast our votes now!"

The others murmured among themselves for a while, seeing that Song Tianming had already gained the upper hand and this was an open voting process with accountability afterwards, so they quickly followed suit and cast their own votes for Song Tianming.

In no time at all, Song Tianming's vote count reached nine, making him the newly elected chairman.

At this point, the remaining few people who hadn't voted yet realized that the outcome was already decided, regardless of whether they voted or didn't vote. He would still be elected as the new chairman.

But if they didn't vote for him or abstained, they would have to beware of him taking revenge in the future.

So everyone followed the trend and cast their votes for Song Tianming.

So, Song Tianming had obtained seventeen votes from seventeen people.

At this point, Song Ting opened his mouth and said, "Since it's like that, Mr. Song Tianming will be the new chairman of the Song Family Group, congratulations and applause!""

As he spoke, Song Ting led the others in applauding.

The others followed suit and joined in the applause as well.

Song Tianming smiled humbly and said, "I know myself, my abilities are not bad, but compared to the previous chairperson, Mrs. Song Wanying, I'm still a bit lacking. However, everyone can rest assured that since I've been elected by everyone to take on this position, I will resolutely fulfill my duties, maintain my position, and serve the future development of the Song Family Group with all my heart and soul, without any slack or irresponsible behavior."

The others applauded eagerly.

Song Tianming smiled slightly and said calmly, "Since we have already selected a new chairman, let's move on to the press conference hall!"

"I had invited some media representatives in advance and notified them that we would be selecting a new chairman today." JrNovels.com
