Chapter:-123 I agree with Mr. Sanderburg

At the four shareholders had lost their fortunes and left, Keith shook off this thought and

smiled. I mean, Ms. Sampson, have the IT team release a notice on Mastodon, tell them

to say that they've invited the top scorer of the college entrance exams for an interview.

Let's set the time at seven o'clock, three days from now.

When these words came out, everyone was stunned and looked at Keith with admiration.

Under such a strategy, the traffic on Mastodon would probably explode in the next few

days and they would make a ton of money. Yvette chuckled and said, Don't worry, Mr.

Sanderburg, I'll make sure they get the message.

Good, Keith smiled and nodded. He looked at Julian and said, Make sure security keeps it

a secret, I cannot be exposed to the outside world for the time being. Julian said

respectfully, Got it, I'll arrange for it right away.

After the two of them left, everyone in the meeting stared at Keith, regardless of

whether they were willing or not. There was a trace of respect in their eyes. Keith had

shown he was able to grab a business opportunity and immediately make arrangements

to capitalize on it.

This alone was enough to show he was capable of being vice CEO. After Julian and Yvette

left, Keith smiled at Olivia who was beside him. Mr. Ross, let's continue the meeting.

Olivia came back to her senses and nodded with a smile. She said seriously, Okay,

everyone, as you all know, the top scorer of the college entrance exams is a talent that

every major company pursues. Furthermore, Mr. Sanderburg's perfect score was the

best in the country.

I think with Mr. Sanderburg's ability, he's more than capable of being the vice CEO of the

company. No one has any objections, right? Under the circumstances, Olivia and Keith

already had an overwhelming advantage. If anyone raised an objection now, they'd look

like an idiot.

You have shattered the wish of the board to stop you from being vice CEO. Attribute

point plus one. The room was silent.

Olivia saw this and smiled slightly, then said, The second topic is the direction of the

company's development. Everyone knows that Olive Industries planned to advance in

various fields a few years ago, but there hasn't been much progress. Currently, the few

big companies that have a competitive relationship with us have already started to act.

We can't stand still. I suggest that Mr. Sanderburg be the director of the Project Development Center. He will be in charge of the investment and construction of new

projects.

In the future, the focus of the group will gradually shift to different industries. Everyone

must prepare accordingly. Leo Tassimo sneered and said, Mr. Ross, Mr. Sanderburg can

be the vice CEO.

Whether it is his contacts or his exam results and whether he comes into the office or

not, we don't care. That's a matter for the CEO's office. But the director of the Project

Center will be directly responsible for our future strategy and operations.

As the business spreads into new industries, it will get very busy. Mr. Sanderburg still

intends to go to college, right? Wouldn't it be inappropriate for him to take up this job?

Leo's words were euphemistic, but in reality, they hit the nail on the head and pointed

out Keith's weakest point. After the summer vacation, he had to go to school.

When Leo said this, everyone finally reacted. This brat's main job was to be a student,

while being vice CEO and director were just part-time roles for him. If it wasn't for the

fact that the truth was right in front of them, they would never have believed that there

was such a thing in the world.

Well, Olivia also reacted. Her husband was a freshman who'd not even started his first

year yet. Seeing everyone looking at him strangely, Keith touched his nose and said, Do

you think that it makes any difference whether I go to class or not? Same thing, what

difference does it make if I come to work or not? The statement was full of confidence.

When he had said as much previously, everyone felt that he was posturing and bragging.

But now, they recalled the image of him from the viral exam videos. I think the exam's

very simple.

Oh, I finished the exam in half an hour. I was sleeping. At the time, they had laughed at

him.

But in the end, he'd scored full marks and taken first place in the country. His ability to

get results was something that no one could refute. The board choked on their own

words.

There was not a single objection. Olivia's eyes lit up with a gentle smile. She slapped the

table and said, Since no one objects, the matter's settled.

Harold Loxley wanted to stand up and say something, but he was stopped by Leo beside

him. Leo shook his head with a grim smile, indicating that Harold should keep his mouth

shut. And so the matter of Keith being the project director was decided.

Olivia said, Good. Then the third item today is the appointment of HQ management. You all know that the actions of Calvin Carter, our former vice CEO, had a huge impact on the

company.

Until now, his schemes were kept secret, and many of the managers were promoted and

appointed by him. I think most of them are not suitable for the positions they're in now.

Olivia's bright eyes swept across the crowd and said, Let's start with the general

administration office.

I suggest that the director, Richie Vine, be transferred to the National Store Preparation

Center as director. His current position will be taken by Yvette Sampson, the current

director of Human Resources. I've already emailed you all the basic personnel transfer

plans, but you can take a look at it yourself.

The shareholders turned on their phones and started looking through the list. After a

minute, Leo sneered, Mr. Ross, with such a large scale personnel transfer, I'm afraid our

headquarters will be in a state of paralysis. I think your method is very inappropriate.

The rest of the board members nodded and said, No, this is equivalent to severing one's

own arm off. The discussions after that was simply a tug of war, and the board refused to

give in, no matter what Olivia said. Keith didn't know the people on the list except for

Yvette and Julian, and he knew very well that once Olivia did this, the board's puppets in

middle management would be swept away.

She wanted to completely eradicate the cancer. No wonder the board resisted so

intensely. The obstacle now was that Olivia knew that these people were the cancer in

the company, but there was no evidence.

The situation had reached a stalemate. Keith frowned and thought for a while. He gently

pinched Olivia's hand, indicating that she didn't need to debate the matter with the

board, he said in a booming voice.

Since the board does not agree with the appointments on the list, the matter will be put

aside for now. However, other than Yvette and Julian being the directors of their

respective departments, I will transfer them to the Project Development Center to

become my deputies. This is our bottom line.

If you dare raise any more ridiculous objections, the CEO's office will forcefully carry out

the changes on the list. Don't say I didn't warn you. The shareholders immediately fell

silent.

Leo sneered and said, Mr. Sanderburg, let me remind you, not everyone is as greedy as

you, wanting to take on so many positions. Is it not worth considering your decision?

Keith replied calmly, I also want to remind you that not everyone is like you, Mr.

Tassimo, with nothing to do all day long. Leo snorted and said, Are you seriously

implying that I'm useless? That I'm trash? Keith laughed and said, No, no, no, you misunderstood.

I'm not saying you're trash. What I'm saying is, apart from Mr. Ross and me, everyone

here is trash. The board was stunned.

Harold suddenly stood up and shouted, What the hell do you mean by that? Keith said

with a cold smile, What do I mean? This board doesn't give a damn about the

development of the company. You only thought about fighting for power and profit. You

want to earn money from the company.

So you installed a group of trash managers in high positions. If that doesn't make you

trash, what does? You little... The shareholders erupted at Keith's comments. But Olivia

got up and said, I agree with Mr. Sanderburg.

Meeting adjourned. After saying that, she pulled Keith out of the room. The executive

department and the directors of the various departments were waiting outside the door.

They all greeted Keith and Olivia when they saw them walk out. Except for one person.

Olivia was disgusted with this group of people.

She walked forward without saying a word. Keith nodded kindly and said, Miss Sampson,

Mr. Rhodes, the two of you come with me. The two of them looked at each other and

quickly followed.

As the four of them walked side by side, Keith's eyes lit up. Julian and Yvette's loyally

scores had appeared in his mind. Julian's loyalty was 98 and Yvette's loyalty was 97.

They were almost full. This meant he had judged them correctly and could trust them

both with heavy responsibility. He laughed and said, I know that you guys would prefer

to be in the general administration office or become the boss of a subsidiary, but you've

seen the current situation.

HQ can't manage without you. We need you to focus on the development center. As for

the work of your departments, hand it over to someone you trust.

The two of them looked happy. They had upgraded from department managers to

deputy directors of the development center. Although they weren't directors, they had

taken a step forward.

The key thing was that Keith was ambitious. The development center might well end up

being the heart of the whole company. Yvette smiled and said, okay, we know what to

do.

Keith smiled, but Olivia asked curiously, Keith, I wanted to force through my list of

appointments just now. Why did you stop me? Keith smiled and said, if we forcefully

carry out our plan, it'll cause a strong backlash. Once someone leaks the information, the
