It seemed that Long Jufang was aware of her current difficulties. "If you’re interested, I could negotiate with those shareholders for you. Although the amount of shares I own is considered negligible compared to theirs, they still hold a certain degree of respect for me because of our acquaintance throughout the decades. If I make a tempting offer to purchase their shares, I have a higher chance of succeeding than if you did it on your own because they would give me face as an elder of the Long clan and also as a long-time fellow shareholder."
Iris tilted her head to the side as she considered his logic. He had a point.
He continued, "As for you, it’s very unlikely that you’ll be able to persuade them to sell their shares to you. First of all, your bad reputation in the past before the car accident is deeply ingrained not only in our clan but also in the entire company. Even if you changed a lot for the better right now, most of the old fellows still don’t believe in you.
"Secondly, you’ve never shown any interest in working for the company before...until now, that is. Being the brand ambassador isn’t really considered as officially working for the company. At most, it’s just an honourary position. It holds no administrative power, even though you’re the one who solved the stock price crash caused by your brother and the reason why we’re having this party tonight. Compared to you, I know that those shareholders will be more willing to sell their shares to your brother Hui because he’s the Deputy CFO, a position of legitimate power in the company. What’s more, he has always been known as your father’s successor before you were even born. Also, don’t underestimate your brother’s maternal family. The Zhengs are on par with us Longs. They’ll do everything in their power to assist your brother Hui so that he could succeed your father as the next head.
"And lastly, people won’t trust that you’ll be able to successfully manage a big company like ours while at the same time continuing your work as a celebrity. Unless you quit showbiz and focus on being a full-time businesswoman, you’ll find it very hard to gain the trust of the old fellows in the company. They’ll only start believing in you if you can guarantee that you’ll put in a large amount of time and energy into the company. So listen to me, Xiulan. As your elder, I suggest that you stop playing around, quit showbiz, and start working on a serious career from now on. I’m only saying this for your own good."
Iris’ hands balled into tight fists as she fought the urge to punch something, or in this case, someone.
Stop playing around?
Quit showbiz?
Start working on a serious career?
Hah!
What did this old coot mean? That being a critically acclaimed and multi-award-winning musician who composes her own music at a young age was just playing around? That it wasn’t a serious career?
The insult!!!
