Rebirth of the 92 Business Tycoon

Vol 5 Chapter 323: collapse

"Haha, resign? Did you add any ingredients to the cigarette? Are you so crazy," Hastings couldn't help laughing as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

This is the company that founded it by oneself, took it with one hand to grow, with one hand with it to go public, with the other hand with it to today, has become a leading company in the field of online leasing, let yourself resign, why? Why?

"Didn't I tell you?" Randolph said, "I was very busy yesterday. Before three o'clock yesterday, I was very busy, very busy."

"The result of my busy schedule is that the 9 directors including me, yes, you heard that right, a total of 9 directors, unanimously agreed to accept your resignation as chairman of the board of directors and CEO of the company."

Looking at the serious Randolph, Hastings couldn't smile now, "Is this your idea?"

"How dare you? Why do you want to do this?" He looked a little hideous.

"Nine? Who else?" He thought of another question.

If there are 9 directors, it means that besides Randolph, another director who is an executive betrayed him.

"I think you know my reason, whether you believe it or not, I do it for our company, for you," Randolph said.

"For the company? For me?" Hastings walked around the office like a beast. "Why did you become like this?"

"I haven't changed Hastings, you have changed," Randolph said. "Become only concerned about yourself,"

"It is Mr. Feng who is said to be highly valued by their country leaders," Hastings sneered. "But the young Mr. Feng doesn't understand. Don't you understand? Propose The dismissal of me, the chairman of the board of directors, can only be approved by a general meeting of shareholders."

"Yes, it is because we all know it, so I prepared for such a long time. It is because we all know that, so I said, for your good, you should resign proactively. If you are removed at the shareholders meeting, it will inevitably affect you. Reputation,"

After Randolph finished this, he seemed relieved and relieved, "Hastins, there is not much time left for you. If you disagree, we will ask for an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders. I don’t want you to be in full view. Was removed by most people,"

Hastings originally wanted to ask, why can you be sure that most shareholders will agree to this proposal?

But when Randolph was so sure, he immediately understood that they had obtained the consent of the majority of shareholders. Otherwise, how could Randolph have the confidence now?

As for why those shareholders agree, their lobbying is naturally related, but the company's recent sluggish performance is probably also the reason for those shareholders' consent.

"You are right," Randolph nodded looking at him. "Yes, we have the approval of most shareholders."

"So Hastings, take the initiative to resign, although I really don't want to do this, but this is the best result for you and the company,"

"You don't want to?" Hastings caught fire, and a pile of papers on the desk was swept to the ground by him. "You don't want to?"

"You have arranged everything one by one, one by one, you want to dismiss all of my duties, don't you want to?"

"Hastings, look at the outside, you can see from the outside, this is not my choice, it is the choice of all the company's personnel,"

"The choice of all personnel?" Hastings slammed the curtains and saw that the staff outside, including his secretary, were really paying attention to this side. Seeing that he could see it, he quickly pretended to be A busy look.

However, in the distance, more people were whispering, looking at this direction of their office with complicated eyes.

Hastings still knows his employees very well. He understands the expectations of those employees. So they are also looking forward to being acquired by NEXTDOOR?

Why don't so many people understand me?

He didn't believe it was true.

He rubbed his face vigorously, not believing what he was facing now.

He made another call, but, as before, the situation was very unoptimistic. The phone kept ringing, but no one answered.

Finally, when he called for the third time, the phone was connected, "Exxon, it's me, listen to me, I have convinced Wal-Mart that they intend to...,"

"Mr. Hastings," said there.

Hearing that old Exxon actually called himself his husband, Hastings' heart suddenly cooled. Is this really irreparable?

"Why are you still looking for my old guy now? You can do what you want to do. Netflix is ​​your own company. You don't need to care about the opinions of our shareholders and directors."

"Exxon, listen to me," Hastings was a little anxious for the first time, and felt a little sorry for his behavior for the first time. Indeed, he shouldn't pay back after the board of directors has just rejected the proposal to contact Walmart. I turned a deaf ear to this and went to the Wal-Mart headquarters the next day.

"Although I have a very valid reason, I went to Wal-Mart. Although I was at Wal-Mart and did get the results I wanted, I apologize to you and the board of directors for my reckless behavior."

In times of crisis, people like him will also compromise.

In short, we must pass the current hurdle safely, and the rest can be considered in the long term.

To get through this hurdle, the support of the board of directors is of utmost importance-this is the sorrow of the founders of most high-tech companies in Silicon Valley. After a round of financing, their own shares are only a minority.

When the board of directors has 12 directors, 9 of them stand on the opposite side of their own. Regardless of whether the shareholders' meeting is held, the situation will not be optimistic.

"If everyone disagrees with the proposal to cooperate with Walmart, I respect everyone's opinions,"

"Hastings, it's all over, and now it's meaningless to say that, like Randolph, I am very reluctant to do it, but for the company, I fully support him, well, I have an appointment, goodbye,"

But before hanging up, Exxon yelled again, "Hastins,"

Hastings was overjoyed, "Hi, I'm here,"

Exxon paused, and said in a low voice, "You, alas, do it yourself,"

This time, the phone really hung up.

Hastings slumped in the chair.

"These two are prepared resignations," Randolph took out two pieces of paper from his bag and put them on the table.

"Hehe, it is really well prepared," Hastings grinned sorrowfully. "That Mr. Feng, it is indeed a no-brainer, no drips."

"Randolph, for an outsider, you,"

"He is not an outsider. He and his affiliated companies hold a large amount of Netflix shares." Randolph was completely unmoved at this time and took out a piece of paper. "This is a statement from the company. You can take a look."

What he meant by saying this was that Hastings only had room for signature and could not change a word.

"You are signed, let me know," Randolph turned around and said at the door of the office ~www.wuxiaspot.com~.

"Hey," the lamp was thrown to the ground.

Randolph closed the door and shut Hastings inside, "Don't let anyone in and disturb him," Randolph said to Hastings' secretary.

"Good Mr. Randolph," the little secretary stood up and said.

After passing his office, oh, when he was in the former office, he also stopped for a while, Wilson also walked out immediately, "Mr. Randolph, come in and sit down?"

"No, thank you," Randolph looked at the layout completely different from when he was there. "Sorry Wilson, I shouldn't hit your car that day to vent my anger,"

"Where," Wilson laughed, "Actually, I didn't figure out the situation first. I don't know that the parking space I got, my office, and my position are all from you. I fully understand your mood at the time. "

"Thank you for your understanding, then goodbye,"

"Wait Mr. Randolph," Wilson stopped. "Speaking of which, we have no chance to understand each other. I graduated from Stanford and have been working in Silicon Valley. I have held many senior management positions in technology companies. My strength is in customers. In terms of service, when Mr. Hastings hired me, he also valued my strength."

"I think this ability of mine can also serve the future Netflix,"

After thinking about it, he didn't want to seek another position so soon. Such an experience would definitely be a stain on his resume.

Besides, logically, Netflix should be better than it is now.

"We will definitely see this," Randolph said.

…………

In Seattle, Coinstar’s spokesperson Marcy informed Zheng Jiayi, “Jessica, get ready, tomorrow we will go to Silicon Valley.”

"Really?" Zheng Jiayi was overjoyed. (To be continued.)
