This guy felt smug as he watched her speak. Su Ruyu was really clueless, didn't she know better than to cut off her own arm? She had just wiped out her greatest advantage.
Hu Guobin slapped the table and stood up.
"Li Hu, what do you mean? Do you still want to compete with President Su for the position of chairman?"
Li Hu remained unmoved: “Mr. Hu, please calm down. The president is highly respected in our group. I'm just here to go through the motions. Ultimately, President Su will be confirmed as chairman.”
"Alright, Director Hu, running for Chairman is the right of every director. Let's do it as Mr. Li said, and now we begin voting."
Hu Guobin was about to say something more, but Su Ru Yue stopped him.
She could see clearly that among all these people, only Hu Guobin was truly capable of supporting her.
<...But he only has 1% of the shares and doesn't have much influence over the big picture....>
Hu Guobin snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Just as Su Ruyu said, although Li Hu's actions are despicable, they do not violate the regulations of the group board of directors.
Next, the voting will proceed according to the predetermined procedures. The candidates are Su Ru Yue and Li Hu.
This vote is a real-name vote. Each director announces the candidate they support at the scene, and the final vote count is multiplied by the shares they hold.
Whoever ends up with the most shares held by directors wins this election.
“I nominate President Su to serve as Chairman of the Board.”
The first to step forward was Hu Guobin, and a staff member next to him began recording on the big screen.
"I choose Li Hu, the Vice Chairman…"
“I choose Li Hu, the vice chairman…”
"I choose Li Hu, the Vice Chairman..."
Following Hu Guobin, the subsequent board members successively cast their votes for Li Hu.
As the voting proceeded, Su Ruyu's heart slowly sank.
I really don't know how Li Hu managed to do it, he actually got so many directors to stand up and support him.
The final vote is concluded. 45% of the shares support Li Hu, while only 42% support Su Ru Yue.
"Oh my goodness, I didn't expect so many people to support me. I'm truly surprised."
Li Hu said so, but he couldn't hide the smugness on his face.
Su Ruyu's face turned extremely ugly. She didn't expect that after her father's death, only two directors would support her.
Although she had some mental preparation beforehand, she still found it hard to accept the reality of her failure.
Ye Bufan patted her hand, signaling her not to take it too personally. He hadn't taken any action before today's vote on purpose. His goal was for Su Ruyue to see through these board members and figure out how many of them were trustworthy.
As for Li Hu, though he had reached the position of chairman, it wouldn't be easy to deal with him. He even had a complete plan in mind already.
"Thank you all, since everyone supports me so much, from now on I am the chairman of the Su Group."
After Li Hu finished speaking, he shifted his buttocks directly and sat proudly in the position of the chairman beside him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, since I have been elected now, there are some matters within the group that need to be addressed first. "
Running for the chairman's position this time has actually put a lot of pressure on me.
Just last night, Su Ru Yue and her boyfriend tried to threaten me with my son Li Hai, to get me to withdraw from this election.
"However, I am a very principled person and refused. In the end, they beat my son severely, leaving him seriously injured."
When he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the room.
Su Ru Yue was furious. This was truly a case of the wicked making accusations first, she slammed her hand on the table with a loud bang.
"Nonsense, you know how your son got hurt."
"This kind of thing can't be fake, and it can't be real. You hurt my son, and I've already called the police. I believe the law will give us a fair judgment."

As soon as Li Hu finished speaking, the door of the meeting room was pushed open, and seven or eight uniformed security officers walked in from outside.

"Director Du, have you just seen my son?"
When Du Hongpeng walked in, Li Hu immediately stood up, a smile returning to his face.
"Understood, I've already conducted a harm assessment and it constitutes serious injury."
Du Hongpeng's face was serious, and he put on an air of official detachment.
"Who beat up Young Master Li? Come out now, or I'll have to do it myself."
Su Ruyu was just about to defend herself when Ye Bufan reached out and stopped her.
"It's me, Director Du. Are you here to arrest me?"
Ye Bufan laughed at the end of his words. He felt that he and this guy were really destined, always running into each other every time.
The others all looked bewildered, not understanding what was going on with this young man. Even at this time, he could still smile.
"Ye, you murderer, you still dare to smile!"
"Chief Du, it was this guy who beat up my son. Su Ru Yue is his accomplice."
According to Li Hu's plan, he wanted to send Su Ru Yue and Ye Bufan to prison together so that he could completely control the entire Su Group.
Just thinking about the entire group's assets, worth hundreds of billions, going into my own pocket makes me tremble with excitement.
And Du Hongpeng was trembling too. Just now, because of the angle, he had only seen that there was another person sitting beside Su RuYue, but he hadn't been able to make out their features.
Unexpectedly, I ran into Ye Bufan, that unlucky star, here again. I almost turned and left, but I felt nervous and said in a shaky voice: "Ye...Mr. Ye, what are you doing here?"
"I am a board member of the Su Group, just holding a board meeting here."
Yè Búfán glanced at him, "Bureau Chief Dù, what's the situation with the case? Have you figured it out?"
"No, not yet, still investigating."
At this moment, Du Hongpeng hated Li Hu with all his being. This guy was clearly trying to set him up. He was a ruthless person even the Special Operations Bureau wouldn't dare to provoke. He wouldn't dare to arrest anyone even if he had a hundred guts.
Two people asked and answered each other, and the onlookers were dumbfounded again. What was going on?
Just now, Du Hongpeng still had a fierce look, as if he was about to arrest someone immediately. How come he backed down so quickly now?
"If you're going to investigate, then I'll tell you."
"Ye Bufan said, "Last night his son brought people into a civilian's house at night, attempting to force my girlfriend. I beat him up. Do you think this situation is illegal?"
"It's not illegal, it's absolutely not illegal."
Du Hongpeng immediately patted his chest and said, "Mr. Ye, to put it mildly, this is self-defense. To put it bluntly, you are doing good for the people."
"Um..."
Li Hu was watching beside him, looking inexplicably baffled and nearly choked by Du Hongpeng's words.

If I wanted to find him to help me catch someone, how did it suddenly become about "eliminating harm"?

"Director Du..."
"Shut up."
Li Huguang was about to say something, but Du Hongpeng directly retorted him.
Although the two people are on good terms, this man in front of them is definitely someone to be avoided.
"Don't you know what your own son did? I must investigate this thoroughly, regardless of whether anyone was injured. Legal responsibility will be pursued."
Du Hongpeng's words were spoken with conviction. Turning back to Ye Bufan, he said, "Mr. Ye, I won't disturb you any further."
After saying that, he turned to leave, but Li Hu came back to his senses and called out, "Director Du, don't go!"
"Everything is clear. Mr. Ye acted in self-defense, so there's no need to go anywhere."
Du Hongpeng glared at him fiercely, and was about to leave with his people.
At this time, Ye Bufan said faintly, "Director Du, you still can't leave."
