It must be admitted that Martin Davis challenged Charles bludorn's authority on the board of directors and had great skills in the struggle for corporate governance.

First of all, in the current tight situation, some shareholders of Gulf western industries are indeed dissatisfied with Charles bludorn's Dominican "feelings". Martin Davis proposed to sell it and cash out the income, part of which will enrich the group's cash flow and part of which will be given to shareholders. It can be called very likable and may be followed by wait-and-see directors.

Secondly, Martin Davis is not a casual matchmaker. His buyer, fanjul brothers, has considerable experience in the international sugar industry.

As the name suggests, the fanjul brothers company is a family business. The fanjul family, its owner, immigrated from Spain to Cuba at the end of the last century. By 1910, it had established a commercial kingdom including sugar cane factories, refineries and a large number of real estate. This brilliance continued until the "change of heaven" in Cuba at the end of the 1950s.

However, the wealth lost by the fanjul family was mainly fixed assets that could not be moved. They quickly rebuilt their sugar kingdom in Florida, the current fanjul brothers, and expanded their sugar cane planting business to Dominica with superior natural conditions.

Through the contacts of the Bush family, Gao Xian knows more or less about the fanjul brothers. For example, these two brothers are very interesting in Zhengzhi investment. They can be called a clear division of labor. One supports the drinking party and the other supports the Democratic bamboo party.

In short, it is easy for people on the scene to think that fanjul brothers, which is obviously more professional in the sugar industry, must have enough interest in the industry of Gulf western industries in Dominica and can afford a satisfactory price.

After looking around, Gao Xian noticed that someone showed his heart. If Martin Davis's proposal really won most of the votes, it would mean that Charles bludorn began to lose control of the board of directors of Gulf western industries, which would also harm Gao Xian's interests once the emperor and his courtiers.

At this time, it must be others who stand up to maintain Charles bludorn's leadership that are more convincing.

Gao Xian said, "Mr. Davis has a good personal relationship with the fanjul family. He is so keen to seek benefits for it. Does the fanjul brothers pay you a high salary like the Gulf western industry company?"

Martin Davis seemed to have been trampled on his tail and immediately blushed, his neck was thick and his eyes were anxious. "Sir Gao, pay attention to your words. I have always stood in the position of Gulf Western Industrial Company and considered the interests of all shareholders."

"Yes..." Gao Xian picked up his cup, took a sip of coffee, and then said calmly: "the investment of Gulf Western Industrial Company in Dominica originated from the acquisition of sugar companies in South Puerto Rico at a price of 54 million US dollars in 1967."

"Up to now, the international sugar price has risen twice. From 1972 to 1974, it increased by more than 17 times; from 1978 to last year, it increased by more than seven times, which fully shows how successful the Gulf western industrial company's investment in Dominica is and the stability of mutual support of diversified operations."

Martin Davis interrupted with a sneer: "you also said that the second rise in international sugar prices was from 1978 to last year. Now, the sugar market has obviously failed. If you don't seize the time to cash out, is it rotten in your hand?"

"Are you stupid or bad? According to your logic, the fanjul brothers simply closed down. Why do you have to match up the investment of Gulf western industries in Dominica?" Sir Gao looked contemptuous, "You know, the main business of Gulf Western Industrial Company is industry, not speculation. It is normal to go through the market cycle. As long as you accurately predict the trend, you can deal with it freely."

"It is true that there is a pressure that can not be ignored in the capital turnover of Gulf Western Industrial Company at the whole group level, but it has not reached the point of vomiting blood and losing money!"

Feeling the skeptical eyes from others, Martin Davis stood up and shouted angrily: "I protest! Everyone, you see, this meeting can't continue. David Gao has always attacked my professional ethics. If I slander like this, I can only call my lawyer."

Sir Gao randomly stirred the coffee spoon in the cup twice and said disapprovingly, "I'm just talking about things. I haven't finished yet. What's your hurry? Is it a guilty conscience?"

Martin Davis was so speechless that he could only turn his eyes to Charles bludorn, who was sitting in the chair, to ask the chairman of the board of directors to give an explanation.

Many people present couldn't help but show an amazing look. The recent open and covert struggle in the board of directors of Gulf Western Industrial Company is no secret, but no one thought that the new Gaochao drama was launched between the "opposition leader" Martin Davis and the low-key high jazz.

Under everyone's gaze, Charles bludorn, who has been expressionless, reacted very meaningfully. He waved to the Secretary and said faintly, "the coffee is cold. Change it."

The secretary was absolutely clever. First, he respectfully came to Sir Gao and carefully changed a cup of coffee.

In this gap, Jim juderson, President of Gulf western industries, rounded up the scene and said, "Martin, take it easy. It's inevitable that there will be differences of opinion in the meeting. Listen to Sir Gao's opinions."

"Yes, I haven't finished my words yet, and my train of thought was almost interrupted." Gao Xian took over the right to speak at the meeting and said: "I think it is necessary to explain to you that the investment of Gulf Western Industrial Company in Dominica is not only the traditional sugarcane planting and sugar making, but also extended to other fields including tourism, so that the Dominican media respected our president as the father of Dominican tourism."

"It is no exaggeration to say that the position of Gulf Western Industrial Company in Dominica is almost equivalent to half of the government, and the United States has absolute influence on Dominica. The stable return on investment contained in it does not need me to explain too much. I think you all understand very well."

"Therefore, I think there is no need to adjust the investment of Gulf western industrial companies in Dominica."

Martin Davis, who recovered his calm, closely followed the core of the problem and asked, "Sir Gao said so much. It's useful or useless. For the time being, how to alleviate the current capital turnover pressure of the group?"

Gao Xian replied calmly, "of course, we can't talk about this meeting. We must always come up with feasible solutions."

"The economic recession is really severe. Fortunately, this year is coming to an end, and Paramount's performance is OK. It can squeeze $40 million in cash from the fiscal surplus and feed back to the group to alleviate the pressure of capital turnover."

Martin Davis was speechless. He began to fully understand why Gao Xian suddenly attended the board of directors in person, and the number of seats was so much earlier.

Seeing that the scene was dull, Charles bludorn, the chairman of the board of directors, finally spoke, "at this stage, there is indeed pressure on the operation of the group, but diversification has this advantage and can help each other."

"In view of the steady operation of paramount, especially Sega entertainment, which it participates in the investment, its video game industry is well known to be prosperous. Paramount will play an important role in stabilizing the operation and financial stability of the group in the future."

"Therefore, I propose to add the post of vice chairman to the board of directors, to be held by Sir Gao, so as to coordinate work more effectively."

Charles bludorn asked Gao Xian to be the "second master" of the Gulf western industrial company. He really didn't discuss with Gao Xian in advance. Even Gao Xian felt an accident, let alone others.

However, the atmosphere in the conference room was more of those who wanted to seize power, or onlookers, who were unexpectedly and unfathomably afraid of Charles bludorn.

Just like this time, Charles bludorn suddenly moved out the high-profile Jazz who has always been low-key on the board of directors, which caught everyone by surprise.
