She quickly came back to her senses.
Joziah Austin’s status at home is no longer good, but also the son of the president of the Austin Group, and there are young girls who will jump on the bandwagon.
The only thing that surprised her was that Chambers seemed to know nothing about Joziah Austin, except that he was the deputy director of advertising for the Austin Group.
“No, as far as I know, he’s single now.”
“Really.”
“Well, really.”
Seeing Chambers looking so happy, Amelia Bright hesitated for a moment, but cautioned, “But he’s been around a lot of women, and you’re still young …”
Her words were only half spoken, and she saw Chambers Pan’s face darken.
This look is really quite simple.
The questions that should be asked are also asked, she does not need to stay more, simply chatted two sentences, then check out to leave.
When she left the cafe, the sound of footsteps came from behind her.
“Miss Bright, wait a minute.”
Turning back to see Chambers Pan, she was slightly stunned, “What’s wrong?”
Chambers Pan bit her lip and turned red, “Miss Bright, if you can see Director Austin, can you give this to him for me?”
She spread her hand to reveal a pink heart-shaped sticky note with a string of cell phone numbers and her own name in a very elegant handwriting.
“I’ve met him twice before, both times on Director Austin’s treats. I’m very grateful to him for signing me as a spokesperson, so I’d like to take him to dinner, but I don’t have Director Austin’s contact information, can you ask him for me?”
Amelia Bright hesitated for a moment, originally not wanting to be nosy, but somehow, seeing the expectant look in Chambers’ eyes, she nodded her head and agreed.
“Yes.”
The way Chambers Pan blushed and asked for her help, inexplicably reminded her of herself when she was a teenager.
It is also this kind of youthful ignorance, like a person will not see his shortcomings, full of his eyes are good.
The car was driving smoothly through the city streets of Hounslow.
Bick glanced at the passenger side, saw Amelia Bright looking at the note pad she was holding, and asked in passing, “What did you find out? Is there a problem with this woman?”
“Nothing.”
Amelia Bright put away the sticky note, leaned back in her chair and let out a long breath.
“I guess I was overthinking it.”
The news media had been misinformed, so why had she suddenly lost her composure and become alarmed after Emily Guan?
A month later –
the Austin Group held a shareholders’ meeting.
“This quarter’s results are up by points compared to last month as you can see from the slide, I promised a five point increase and now it’s up by seven points.”
Amelia Bright was dressed in a professional suit, with her long hair tied behind her head, and even with light makeup, she was still in full swing.
After explaining this quarter’s report, she straightforwardly brought up the betting agreement at the shareholders’ meeting two months ago.
“Directors should remember, two months ago, you said, as long as I make this quarter’s results can meet your requirements, then agree to me to start the Chambers family group acquisition case, I think I have done it now, the acquisition case, I do not know if you have thought about it?”
When the words fell, the room was full of discussion.
Only Steven Austin slowly sipped his tea, as if it was not a matter of concern, but than two months ago when Amelia Bright mentioned this matter to him a lot more calmly, seems to have accepted.
After a few discussions at the table, the crowd is still divided into two factions, some supporters and some opponents.
Those who supported it believed in Amelia Bright’s ability, while those who opposed it insisted that the acquisition of the Chambers family group was too risky and required too much liquidity, which would cause a fundamental blow to the group if the capital chain broke.
The final vote was twelve to seven, and the acquisition was officially passed.
“How is that possible?”
The moment the votes were announced, Joziah Austin directly questioned, “How could there be so many people supporting you?”
Amelia Bright glanced at him.
“It’s not support for me, it’s support for the launch of the takeover.”
“All said and done it’s all one thing,”
Joziah Austin blushed and immediately looked at Steven Austin and said.
“Dad, there must be something wrong with this vote.”
Steven Austin is the public and private separation of people, heard the first displeased look at him, slowly said.
“The vote is you say open it is open? This is a board meeting, Austin, deputy director, watch your language.”
“Mr. Austin,” Joziah Austin froze for a moment and changed his tone, “I would like to make this vote public.”
The room looked at each other in disbelief.
“Since the acquisition is a major issue for the group, I think it would be fairer to make the vote public so that if something happens in the future, we will know which directors made the decision.”
“Deputy Director Austin, watch your language,” Amelia Bright’s eyebrows sank a little.
“Public Olson wants to expand its market, if it has the strength, acquisition is a normal business move, you say this means to threaten who?”
“Bright total seems to have misunderstood, I said that in the future out of the matter, it may not be a bad thing, maybe it is a good thing? That must not know which directors agreed to the acquisition, so that we can easily know in the future?”
Joziah Austin, who is also an important member of the board, dissented from the vote and indeed had the right to ask for a public vote, only Steven Austin’s face looked a little ugly.
“I agree to an open vote.”
Amelia Bright shrugged her shoulders indifferently.
” Mr. Austin, since, Deputy Director Austin is so insistent, let’s have another public vote.”
Steven Austin frowned and gave Joziah Austin a displeased look before announcing a new public vote with a show of hands.
” Mr. Austin, it’s still twelve to seven.”
Steven Austin’s secretary announced the final result of the second vote after counting the number of people.
Joziah Austin’s face looked as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a hundred flies.
He probably didn’t expect that even Steven Austin had voted in favor.
But this result was expected by Amelia Bright.
She didn’t believe that the old men in the board would agree to the acquisition just because she had achieved the performance target, so on the one hand, she created her own steps, and in the past month or so, she also let Candy contact these directors privately.
As for Steven Austin, she believed that in the past two months, he had gradually gained a deeper understanding of the acquisition case and would not be unmoved.
Steven Austin’s face was almost sunk to the ground, coldly glanced at Joziah Austin and stood up.
“Since this is the case, then I announce that the Chambers family group’s acquisition case officially launched, the main person in charge of Amelia Bright, Bright vice president, the directors are also quite busy, if there is nothing, then today, the meeting is adjourned.”
The meeting room crowd Gellar continued to leave.
“Joziah, you come to my office.”
Amelia Bright was leaving, but she heard this sentence, and secretly sighed for Joziah Austin.
Why do you have to go against people?
—
After the acquisition was approved, she had her hands full.
“Visiting classes? I can’t go. I have to go to Mrs. Song’s dinner party tonight. She has a new wine brand and the evening is a wine tasting banquet.”
