Rebirth of England

John Smith is dead.

Barron learned the news later.

According to information obtained by Ivanta from the police, Barron was informed that the car driven by John Smith himself was found under a bridge in the suburbs of Baltimore.

The autopsy results that came out later showed that John Smith had a very high alcohol content in his body. He was believed to have been driving drunk at the time. While avoiding an oncoming car, the car skidded at high speed and rushed off the bridge deck, falling to the ground below. shore……

According to Jenny, John had indeed been drinking and emotional when he was at home that night.

As for why he drove alone to the outskirts of the city so late...

The police retrieved John Smith's call records. Those who called him in the last period included Quentin Smith and Barbara Smith, John's brother and sister, as well as the Sinclair pilot from the Navigation Group. Shareholder representatives...

There was also a call from Barron, but it was not answered. According to the time, when Barron called John Smith, the car accident had already occurred...

Finally, the shareholder representative of Vanguard Group in Sinclair confirmed that John Smith had contacted him last night, hoping to discuss matters related to the subsequent shareholders' meeting.

It seems that a car accident occurred when John Smith was going to the villa where he lived - the road where the car accident occurred was on the only way from John Smith's home to the other party's home.

The final investigation revealed that this was an accidental car accident caused by drunk driving.

And this should be the fact. After all, the Navigation Group said it only used John Smith, but there was no reason to solve him at this time.

As for Barron - he knows very well that he does not need to physically eliminate it. Simply removing John Smith from the positions of chairman and CEO is enough to make him lose control of the Sinclair Group. .

And others don't have much necessary motivation...

So after John Smith's death, what needs to be resolved is who will serve as chairman of Sinclair Group?

…

"You want me to be the chairman?"

Because of the unexpected death of John Smith, Barron came to Baltimore, Maryland.

After meeting John Smith’s widow, Jenny, the other party shook her head and said after hearing Barron’s proposal for her to serve as the chairman of Sinclair Group:

"I have never been exposed to this kind of business, and now that I have a child, I will be ready to cultivate myself after a while..."

"I just want you to temporarily take on such a transitional position, and leave the company's management to the CEO. Your chairman's responsibilities are not too many. They are just signing signatures and attending some meetings. After all, currently For me, you are the most suitable..."

As Barron said, after John Smith's unexpected death, Jenny, as his widow, has become the most suitable candidate to serve as the chairman of Sinclair Group.

At least if she takes the role, all parties can accept it, and the turmoil caused by Sinclair Group in the short term can be avoided.

You know, although IC Capital has purchased the personal shares held by the three David Smith brothers, the Sinclair Family Trust is still the largest single shareholder of the Sinclair Group, holding 22.5% of the shares.

The current situation is that the shares held by the Sinclair Family Trust have a total of seven votes, namely three votes and three votes from David Smith’s widow, three votes and three votes from John Smith’s side, and one vote from John Smith’s In the hands of the birth mother.

So after all, Jenny Smith becomes the only person who can be accepted by these Sinclair family members and control the shares held by the Sinclair Trust.

In addition, because of his personal relationship with her, Barron would naturally be willing to accept Jenny as the transition candidate for the chairman of Sinclair Group, which would give him time to acquire more shares of Sinclair Group, so that he could quickly Identify the next candidate to replace her.

As for the Pilot Group...

Although their current shareholding is the smallest, under certain relatively balanced situations, it can also be a decisive force that can influence the situation. Similarly, Jenny, as the widow of John Smith, is also an acceptable candidate for them.

Even though Jenny and John Smith were slightly unhappy before, at least they had a relationship for many years. Therefore, when suddenly faced with the unexpected death of John Smith, Jenny still showed a state of grief.

This made Barron himself unable to help but scold himself as a pervert - Needless to say, Jenny was now wearing a long black dress and had a cold face. Under this situation, he was really ready to move...

After thinking about Jenny as the candidate for the chairmanship of Sinclair Group, Barron really felt that this was a very suitable arrangement.

Although as Jenny said, she had not been exposed to many business matters before, but from Barron’s previous conversation with her, it can still be seen that in terms of judging the situation, Jenny is at least better than The late John Smith was much more sober.

And as he said, this position does not need to be responsible for the specific matters of company operation. Those things can be left to professional managers. What she needs is to ensure that she (Barron) makes decisions in this position. Just implement it.

Under Barron's persuasion, and considering the need to appease the Sinclair family, and that she already has a child and needs to consider the child's future, Jenny finally accepted Barron's arrangement and would try to serve as the chairman of the Sinclair Group.

Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done after this, but Barron doesn't need to come forward.

Ivanta will represent IC Capital, and Talulah Riley will be Barron's representative. They will talk with members of the Sinclair family to communicate about the company's arrangements after John Smith's death.

Ashes to ashes, ashes to ashes...

Since John Smith has died unexpectedly, and Jenny is now pregnant with her own child, Barron does not need to pursue the Sinclair family too much for his "betrayal".

However, in addition to Jenny, other members of the Sinclair family will gradually be excluded from the decision-making level of the Sinclair family, which is also an inevitable result in the future.

At least Jenny's existence, as a representative of the Sinclair family - plus she is pregnant, in the eyes of others, she is John Smith's inheritance - can maintain the Sinclair family's presence in this group.
