Chapter 503 - 502: Trouble in the New Century
When a stranger suddenly burst into the meeting room, all the attendees froze, and they also heard Yusuf Zuck’s words. But who was this person, and who had authorized his resignation? Was he the company chairman?
"Mr. Marlon, this person... this person..." The receptionist was visibly nervous; she simply couldn’t stop him.
"It’s fine, you may leave now," Marlon Shepherd got up at this moment and, with a smile on his face, quickly took two steps forward, then shook Yusuf Zuck’s hand.
"Boss, when did you get back?" Marlon was overjoyed. Yusuf Zuck had actually returned, and to the company, no less—it was as if the sun had risen from the west, a good omen indeed.
"Boss?" Hearing Marlon’s words, everyone in the meeting room inhaled sharply, then simultaneously stood up.
Heavenly Investment had developed extremely rapidly and could now be counted as one of the largest investment firms in the country, all within a short span of half a year.
During this half-year, Heavenly Investment’s primary strategic task had been the forceful acquisition of Wilcox’s Enterprises.
Wilcox’s domestic hotel and a recently built shopping mall had already become part of Heavenly Investment, and more importantly, they now held a controlling stake in Wilcox Group overseas, becoming its largest shareholder. Wilcox’s had, in essence, changed hands.
One must realize, Wilcox’s Enterprises was huge, covering many business sectors, and under the aggressive pressure from Heavenly Investment, they had to sign a share transfer agreement one month prior. Wilcox’s was left with only around twenty percent of the shares, while Heavenly Investment controlled the remaining seventy-plus percent.
Thus, this dark horse, Heavenly Investment, had long entered the radar of international conglomerates, because Heavenly was simply too wealthy, having forcibly carved out its path.
