The numerous shareholders below had not expected Su Yun to dare say such a thing.
While the former Su Yun was also domineering in her dealings, she would still consider the opinions of them, the shareholders. But now, it seemed she completely disregarded them.
Her slender fingers gently glided from her snow-white wrist. Looking at the shareholders below with expressions of disbelief and stiff faces, a subtle, almost imperceptible curve formed on Su Yun's lips.
After consuming the Golden Scale Yuan Breaking Pill, Su Yun's strength not only reached the Xiantian Grandmaster realm but also significantly improved her state of mind. Naturally, her approach to handling human affairs also changed.
Before they could respond, Su Yun continued, "You wanted me to give you an explanation, didn't you? I can give it to you now."
"Any shareholder who is dissatisfied with my decisions and believes that cooperating with me will only lead to losses will be given the opportunity to transfer their shares."
"Anyone who wishes to transfer their shares, I will acquire them at a premium!"
Su Yun's resolute attitude caused the expressions of the numerous shareholders below to change once more. Su Yun had given them an explanation, but did they dare to accept it?
For a moment, the atmosphere in the conference room became extremely delicate. Even Lin Xi, her secretary standing beside Su Yun, could clearly feel it, her heart also tightening.
Transferring shares?
If this were before Su Yun took over 'Hua Mao Real Estate,' and someone had proposed acquiring their shares at a premium, perhaps ninety percent of them would have agreed.
After all, Hua Mao's financial situation was extremely dire at the time. While it couldn't be said to be losing money every year, it was barely breaking even, merely holding on.
Although they found Su Yun's dominance disagreeable, they had to admit that after Su Yun took over Hua Mao, it had indeed brought about significant changes.
Furthermore, being a shareholder of Hua Mao Real Estate meant being a tycoon with a net worth of at least a billion, a top figure in Zhonghai. They had also heard about some of the events that occurred at the Su family's New Year's Eve banquet last year.
Although the specific details were unclear, one point they were extremely certain of was that the Su family had produced a Major General in the army, and that Major General was exceptionally young, only around twenty years old.
A Major General, while carrying some weight, was not yet at a level to draw the attention of the entire Zhonghai. What was shocking was his age.
Such a young Major General, even a fool would know that his future path was far from over. If he could advance further to Lieutenant General, then even the Xu family would have to treat him with respect.
As for a General, no one had even considered it. Every general who achieved that title was a founding elder. In this current peaceful era, even with immense contributions, it was almost impossible.
Perhaps, when that young Major General reached seventy or eighty, and fought one last battle, he might barely manage to obtain the title of General.
A powerful background was what allowed Hua Mao to maintain its foothold in the fiercely competitive real estate industry.
And now, Hua Mao had secured the highly coveted Tianxiu Lake land, which would undoubtedly elevate Hua Mao to a new level in the industry once completed.
Just as everyone's thoughts were adrift, they heard a chuckle from a middle-aged man in a blue suit, drawing everyone's attention.
This man, Yi Ziyuan, was the largest shareholder of Hua Mao apart from Su Yun, holding fifteen percent of Hua Mao's shares. Therefore, his words were generally given considerable importance.
After Su Yun proposed the premium acquisition of shares, the other shareholders' faces were solemn and their hearts tense. Only he appeared relaxed, even letting out a laugh.
After his chuckle attracted many gazes, he coughed lightly, loosened his tie, and looked at Su Yun, saying, "Chairman Su, the shares held by us shareholders are not many, adding up to just over forty percent. But do you know how much it would cost to acquire our shares at a premium?"
"Moreover, didn't it take you considerable effort to acquire that land at Tianxiu Lake?"
Yi Ziyuan stared at Su Yun with a half-smile, his words making the other shareholders suddenly realize something. Their previously solemn and stiff faces began to relax.
They had all been intimidated by Su Yun's resolute attitude and powerful aura just now. The more than forty percent of shares they held combined would require at least three billion to acquire at a premium. How could Su Yun possibly have that kind of money?
Let alone Su Yun, even the Su family behind her, would likely need to scramble and deplete their reserves to come up with over three billion in liquid funds at once. Even then, it was questionable if they could manage it.
Not to mention that Hua Mao had already spent a huge sum to acquire the land at Tianxiu Lake.
Even though Hua Mao Group was valued at over ten billion, how much actual liquid capital could it have? Even a few hundred million would be considered excellent financial health. As for acquiring their shares at a premium, after thinking it through, they found it laughable.
"No matter the cost, that is my business. As long as someone is willing to transfer their shares, I, Su Yun, will acquire them at a premium."
Su Yun extended her hand, and her secretary, Lin Xi, quickly handed her a contract.
Su Yun took the contract and casually tossed it. Six contracts landed precisely in front of six shareholders below.
This move surprised everyone, but soon their attention was drawn to the contracts before them, and they hurriedly opened them for a detailed look.
The content of the contracts was also simple: share transfer. As long as they signed their names, their shares would legally belong to Su Yun, and Su Yun would have to pay them the share transfer fee within a week. If she defaulted, Su Yun would be liable to pay double the market price of the shares as compensation.
The simple contracts truly stunned the numerous shareholders. They had initially thought that Su Yun's offer to acquire their shares at a premium was just for show. But now, it seemed it was not that simple.
"I'll sign." Yi Ziyuan signed his name on the contract without hesitation after reading it. This action surprised many of the shareholders.
After signing the contract, Yi Ziyuan looked at Su Yun and gave a cold smile. "Chairman Su truly has grand ambitions. It seems you were prepared long ago. Not only did you single-handedly secure the land at Tianxiu Lake, but you also had your eye on our shares?"
"However, do you think Hua Mao can peacefully enjoy such a large cake all by itself?"
After speaking, Yi Ziyuan's gaze swept over the other shareholders. Seeing that they had not yet started signing, he revealed a cold smile and said, "It seems you gentlemen still hold out hope for Hua Mao? In that case, I can only wish you good luck."
Yi Ziyuan stood up and, just as he took a step, paused and looked at Su Yun. "Chairman Su, Zhongtian Group's strength is indeed inferior to Hua Mao's, but please do not forget the Nan family of Ru Nan."
After speaking, Yi Ziyuan walked out of the conference room decisively, leaving the numerous shareholders looking at each other, unsure of what to do.
