Chapter 190 Trump Card
Ever since Zhen Niang and Dr. Zhou agreed that Ge Fu should go out for a walk every day, she has not spent a single day staying at home.
She likes the clean air in the morning, the dogs playing in the park, the birds perching on the branches, the crowds of people on the streets, and the smiles she gets from strangers...
Without Goforth realizing it herself, more and more portraits appeared in her oil sketches.
"I guess this fashionably dressed girl has a happy family, but one of her parents must have a stronger personality. She seems to have just experienced a quarrel, so she is a little irritable and eager to get rid of this irritability." Ge Fu said to Lu Yao while coloring.
Lu Yao frowned, "Where did you get this information?"
"Don't be so serious." Ge Fu smiled and said, "I've already said it, it's just my guess."
"It means it's fake." Lu Yao raised his eyebrows.
Ge Fu shook his head and said, "I will be a little unhappy if you say that. Why do we still have physical oil paintings when we have cameras? What is real and what is fake? Even if it is a one-to-one replica of a photo, the picture and emotion it shows will be different from reality and higher than reality because of the different shooting techniques, lighting and angles. This is the charm of photography art, and the charm of painting art is even higher than this."
"Each of our works presents the unity of subjective emotion and objective image, the unity of expression and reproduction."
Lu Yao seemed to understand, but he didn't quite understand the situation. He said, "To put it bluntly, it's still fake."
"Of course not." Ge Fu smiled and said, "Artists can create everything. We are the masters of the works. The creations may be false, but we will give them real souls."
Lu Yao didn't quite understand, but he could see the pride and happiness in her eyes.
Ge Fu cannot sketch every day now. Doctor Zhou has set a limit for her. She can only sketch once every three days, and each time cannot exceed two hours. The person supervising her is naturally Lu Yao.
"It's time to go back in ten minutes." He reminded again.
Gofu did not argue with him. While slowly putting away his painting supplies, he suggested, "Let's go boating. I saw a place for boating over there."
"Now? In the middle of winter?" Lu Yao shook his head and said, "It's too cold to go boating now. I'll take you to the movies."
See a movie?
Ge Fu's eyes lit up. She hadn't watched a movie for half a year.
However, when he arrived at the screening room, Gofu wilted.
"Do you think we're suitable here?" She wasn't interested in cartoons at all.
Lu Yao reached out and touched her flat belly and said, "It suits him."
"But he's not born yet!" Gofus was crazy.
Lu Yao put his arm around her and said, "Don't you know there is such a thing as prenatal education?"
Gofu was speechless.
In the end, they didn't get to watch the movie because less than ten minutes after it started, Ge Fu received a call from Yao Niang.
"The Ge family's business in China has run into problems." Yao Niang said anxiously, "Our goods at the port were seized by the customs, and the hotel and restaurant were asked by the Health Commission to suspend operations for rectification. Other businesses have also encountered many problems, big or small."
As Ge Fu helped Lu Yao out of the screening room, he replied, "It's very obvious that Xiao Yuan is forcing me to go back."
"So, Princess, what are you planning to do...?" Yao Niang asked tentatively.
Ge Fu said simply: "You should contact the domestic media immediately and tell them that I am interested in selling some of the shares of the Xiao Group."
Yao Niang was dumbfounded. "How come you have shares of Xiao Group?"
At this time, Ge Fu had already walked out of the cinema. She originally planned to go directly to the garage and drive back, but Lu Yao stopped her and pointed to the booth nearby.
——That is for customers waiting for the movie to start and passing by to rest. Gofu just walked out a little fast, and now she is a little out of breath, so he hopes she can rest for a while.
Ge Fu sat down, and then answered Yao Niang: "You should know that the so-called Xiao Group was actually founded by my grandfather. Although the late emperor took over for more than ten years, but..." She sneered and said: "He obviously has no business ability. In more than ten years, let alone expansion, he couldn't even maintain the success. It was only after my father took over that the Gu family of the Xiao Group continued to rise and finally became the behemoth it is today. Even now, most of the management of the Xiao Group were promoted by my father."
Her investigation during this period was not without results.
"I know, but..." Yao Niang said with some pain, "But Your Highness was so upright and upright that he never took any shares of the Xiao Group. Even the shares that Emperor Yuan had originally belonged to were taken back by the late Emperor after his death."
“No recycling.”
"what?"
"Grandfather's shares were not taken back by grandmother." Ge Fu sighed and said, "Not only was grandfather's 20% of shares not taken back, but when grandmother passed away, she gave 30% of his shares to father. However, the will left by grandmother stated that these 50% of shares will only last until my children's generation. Unless my grandchildren become emperors, starting from my grandchildren, each generation must return 10% of the shares to the royal family until only grandfather's 20% of shares are left. In other words, I only have the right to dispose of those 20% of shares."
It was obvious that the grandmother did not completely trust Xiao Yuan and his daughter, and she made some arrangements for her beloved son before her death.
And this arrangement has now become Ge Fu's trump card.
Actually! ?
Yao Niang was shocked and said, "But, His Majesty seems to know nothing about this matter?" If not, how could she dare to suppress the Ge family's business so blatantly?
"She really doesn't know." Ge Fu said calmly, "She knows nothing about business. Even though she only holds 34% of the shares, she thinks this is normal for a joint-stock company. She thinks the other shares are in the hands of other shareholders, and that she, who has management rights, holds the most shares among all shareholders. Because my grandmother made relevant arrangements at the beginning, as long as we don't say it ourselves, no one will know that we have so many shares."
"So what you mean is... to publicize it like this this time?" Yao Niang was a little unwilling.
If she were to say, this trump card can still be hidden.
"If we don't publicize it now, there will be no need to publicize it in the future." In Ge Fu's view, there is no reason not to avoid avoidable losses.
The shares of Xiao Group can be her trump card, but they cannot be her killer weapon.
In this case, there is no need to hide it.
