Marvel's Umbrella

The time soon arrived in the afternoon.

Tony, wearing a straight suit and tie, slowly walked to the top floor of Stark Tower.

After opening the door, I saw that the conference room was already full of people.

These people are all shareholders and senior executives of Stark Enterprises, large and small.

"Mr. Stark, are you okay?"

"Hello Mr. Stark."

"Mr. Stark is finally back."

After a while of greetings, Tony took Pepper to the chairman's seat and sat down, while Pepper sat in the first seat to his left.

After looking around, Tony looked at the watch on his left hand and found that the time was already two o'clock.

"Isn't Obadiah here yet? It seems that he does not plan to attend this board meeting."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the conference room was pushed open again.

I saw the tall Obadiah walking in with a hearty smile.

"Everyone, I'm very sorry, I'm a little late."

Seeing the person who was once his dearest person appear, Tony didn't react much and just nodded lightly.

But soon, he noticed a beautiful blonde behind Obadiah.

"Luna?"

Seeing everyone looking at her, Luna smiled calmly.

"Hello everyone, my name is Luna."

Pepper stood up at this time and said with a gloomy face: "This is the board of directors of Stark Enterprises. Anyone who is not relevant please leave."

Without waiting for Luna to speak, Obadiah winked at the shareholders and then said: "Let me introduce to you Luna next to me. She is the CEO of Umbrella and is here to attend the board of directors on behalf of Umbrella. .

Let me remind you that Umbrella has obtained 5% of Stark Enterprises' shares. According to regulations, it does not need the approval of the chairman to obtain the right to participate in the board of directors. "

As he finished speaking, the shareholders present stood up, applauded and expressed their welcome.

"Pa bang bang..."

"Welcome Miss Luna to our big family."

"I didn't expect Umbrella to also invest in it."

"Yes, you must know that Stark Enterprises is in a very troubled state right now."

Just when Luna was about to take her seat, Pepper suddenly asked with a tablet: "Why didn't I see Umbrella's listing announcement? Didn't the stock exchange issue an announcement?"

After finishing speaking, she looked at the other party with confusion.

In response to Pepper's question, Luna still had a smile on her face and slowly sat down in the shareholder's seat.

"These equity transactions were concluded this morning, so the announcement hasn't come out yet. If Miss Pepper doesn't believe it, you can take a look at these documents."

After finishing speaking, she put down the briefcase in her hand and took out documents one by one.

Pepper looked at the documents of these equity transactions and still said in disbelief: "How is it possible? You can't receive 5% of the equity in such a short period of time!"

Although Stark Enterprises is currently not as exaggerated as one trillion in later generations, it still has a market value of 300 billion.

Even if the current stock price drops by two-thirds due to some things, it still has a market value of about 100 billion.

Five percent is five billion. Not to mention whether Umbrella has so much liquidity, just acquiring so much equity from others is not a simple matter.

When Luna heard this, her pretty eyebrows on the left raised slightly, with an expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

"I have Mr. Stark to thank for that."

Tony frowned slightly when he heard that it was suddenly mentioned to him.

"What does this have to do with me?"

"Of course it is related. If you hadn't closed down the weapons research department and terminated the transactions with the military, those fund companies, institutions and securities companies would not have transferred their shares to our Umbrella Group so readily.

And it is still 10% lower than the transaction price in the secondary trading market. "

In fact, if the reputation of Stark Enterprises was better, Li Feng would not be able to buy 5% of Stark's shares so quickly, and at a low price.

But who caused Stark Enterprises to have troubles one after another recently?

The weapons research and development department was closed, arms deals with the military were terminated, the Ark reactor has not been turned on, and robot riots occurred.

These things would be a fatal blow to other companies.

Although Stark Enterprises is huge, it cannot withstand such hardships.

So you can't blame Li Feng for moving so fast.

Tony and Pepper confirmed that Umbrella really had 5% of the shares, and their expressions suddenly turned ugly, and they had a bad feeling in their hearts.

However, they didn't take it too seriously and felt it wasn't a big problem.

After all, they hold 39% of the shares, while Obadiah only holds 12% of the shares. Even if Umbrella's 5% is added, it is only 17%. .

They still have a big advantage.

But the faces of other shareholders turned dark.

Because of these recent events, their assets have shrunk by two-thirds.

Stark's current market value is around 100 billion, and the shares they hold are not low. If they want to sell at this time, they can only sell below the market price like those fund companies, institutions and securities companies.

Isn't this equivalent to killing them?

When they thought of this, some small shareholders immediately looked at each other, and then nodded in tacit understanding.

After some minor twists and turns, the shareholders' meeting officially began.

Pepper was still the first to attack.

"The first thing to do when holding the shareholders' meeting this time is to fire Obadiah from the position of CEO, and he will not be allowed to attend any shareholders' meeting of Stark Enterprises in the future."

Hearing this, Obadiah still looked normal, but the small shareholders started to make a fuss.

"Why fire Obadiah? If the company doesn't have him, I don't know how much the performance will drop."

"What happened? Obadiah is the veteran of the company."

"Yes, the company can't do without him."

Although Obadiah is a villain to Tony, he is a very good CEO to ordinary shareholders.

After all, almost 50% of Stark Enterprises' revenue is handled by Obadiah, and the positions of managers and general managers of some key departments are also held by Obadiah's confidants.

If Obadiah is fired rashly, not to mention how much the stock price of Stark Enterprises will drop, it is estimated that half of the departments will be paralyzed.

In the face of the questioning of small shareholders, Pepper had no intention of explaining, but just said coldly: "Raise your hands and vote now!"

If she hadn't been careless last night and handed over the USB drive that copied Obadiah's crimes to the military, she wouldn't be so passive.

Now that the military is obviously biased towards Obadiah and didn't even arrest him, she knew that things were not going well, so she just voted directly.
