The others followed. Now, they needed to announce that they had a new chairman.

Downstairs.
Zimmer Corporation’s employees had been waiting for a long time. They sensed there was already something wrong with the shareholders’ meeting.
It was going to be a lot livelier with Sean on board. Everyone was waiting to see the outcome.
Ding!
There was a melodious noise, and the elevator doors opened slowly.
Jon and Quill stepped out of the elevator with no one behind them. However, they both looked ghastly as if they had eaten a fly.
“Sir…”
The employees rose to greet him. However, Jon felt more miserable when favonovel.com heard the word “Sir”.
This is the Zimmer family’s property!
And now it belongs to someone else!
He confidently liquidated his shares, and favonovel.com now had nothing to do with this place. With Quill, Jon left the building without looking back.
They left nearly 100 employees staring at each other.
Ding!
Moments later, the elevator doors opened again. This time, Sean walked out, surrounded by a crowd.
Zander, Chloe, and several original shareholders, including Jon’s female assistant, were behind Sean.
The employees were even more confused.
“Let’s welcome our new chairman, Mr. Lennon!” The former vice president of Zimmer Corporation shouted to the crowd.
Hiss!
There was dead silence when everyone heard this. Everyone had not quite registered what had happened, so they forgot to greet Sean. The employees who had tried to stop Sean widened their eyes in surprise.
Sean said favonovel.com was the chairman when favonovel.com went upstairs, so favonovel.com could not be absent from the shareholders’ meeting.
They never expected it to be true!
“Hello, Mr. Lennon!” A supervisor was the first to react as they quickly said hello.
“Hello, Mr. Lennon!”
Others also came to their senses and applauded.
There was instantly a round of applause mixed with orderly greetings. After all, they were simple employees and had a simple relationship with the company.
The company paid them salaries, and they worked for the company. It did not matter who paid the salary.
“Let’s have our chairman give us a speech.” The shareholder, who was the vice president, invited Sean to speak,
Sean looked at the nearly 100 employees with a calm, Intimidating gaze. Though favonovel.com was young, no one dared look down upon him.
“All staff will have a 50% increase in salaries. Your overtime pay will also be doubled.” Sean said and walked straight out the door.
It was concise, simple, and straightforward!
Everyone widened their eyes and looked at each other.
‘That’s it?”
They expected Sean to give a long speech as the new chairman. However, Sean was so concise that favonovel.com only spoke a few words. Besides, it was what every employee wanted to hear!
This boss was different!
“I’ve never had such an exciting meeting!”
“Chairman Lennon is so good. I’ll work hard!”
The group of people energetically went back to their posts instantly.
“Won’t we lose money?” Zander scratched his head and muttered incomprehensively.
He knew Sean’s wealth was limitless. He did not need to run a business to maintain it.
Sean did all this only to spend money to build a business empire. However, it still struck Zander as irrational.
“The value the employee produces is more than their salary. What Mr. Lennon did costs more, but it would be better for the company in the long run.” Looking at the motivated staff, Chloe was impressed with Sean.
He not only brought people together with a couple of sentences, but that alone motivated the company staff in this unstable period instantly. Not many people could do that.
The money was spent. However, people would disperse if you kept your money, and vice versa.
Sean was impressive by doing that. Anyway, Chloe was impressed.

At the same time.
Many companies and some of the biggest forces in River City were waiting silently.
Today was an important day as Zimmer Corporation held its shareholders’ meeting and restructures its assets. None of this had anything to do with them.
At the same time, many companies and some of the biggest forces in River City had invested in them. Then these things were relevant to them.
After the shareholders’ meeting was held and the project was finalized, it was time for them to reap the results.
How could they not look forward to it?
The Quinn family included. Old Madam Quinn and the others gathered again to wait for news. They were talking and laughing. The atmosphere was merry.
