Chapter 904: Still Too Young
Hugo Holden and Morgan Monroe both looked grim.
They truly didn’t expect that not only had Summer Monroe graduated from university, but she also held dual degrees from Britton University.
Just moments ago, they claimed that Summer Monroe’s educational background was completely unqualified for the chairman’s position, only to find out she graduated from Britton University.
What a slap in the face, quick and painful.
Especially Hugo Holden, regretting not considering this possibility earlier, how could he have agreed with Summer so easily?
Morgan Monroe shot a fierce glare at Hugo Holden, then turned to Summer and said, "Indeed, your education qualifies you for the chairman position, but—your experience is lacking."
Summer scoffed, "So, Uncle, are you going back on your word?"
She gave a look to Attorney Chambers, who immediately stepped forward and said, "If you have doubts about Miss Monroe assuming the chairman position, we can go through legal proceedings. I believe that within a week, the court will give a reasonable verdict."
The mention of legal proceedings made Morgan Monroe’s expression freeze.
Everyone knows the Knight Group’s legal team has a perfect win record.
If it goes to court, Stanton Group, already infamous because of Henry Stanton’s affair, would only attract more criticism and ridicule.
Clenching his teeth subtly, Morgan Monroe said, "Alright. But you must prove to us that you can lead our company back to its former glory."
Hugo Holden suddenly had an idea after hearing this.
He spoke, "Summer, if you can, within a month, increase the AI Technology Department’s profits by fifty percent, and also make the other loss-making subsidiaries return to profitability, we will willingly accept you as chairman. Otherwise... even if you get the position, we board members can still vote you out."
Once the board starts voting to remove Summer from the chairman position, having the most shares would be futile.
Summer knew this well, and without hesitation, she nodded, "Alright."
Hugo Holden chuckled contemptuously, thinking Summer was still too young.
The AI Technology Department is currently developing a new product, which takes at least three months from design to release.
Furthermore, many of the company’s subsidiaries are severely losing money, and some can’t even secure any orders, making it impossible for Summer to turn this situation around in the short term.
What about dual degrees from Britton University?
Still too young!
Suppressing his laughter, Hugo Holden said, "Since you’ve agreed, let’s sign an agreement. If you can’t meet the conditions I mentioned in a month, then please step down from the chairman position yourself."
Summer turned to Attorney Chambers, "Please draft the contract."
Attorney Chambers hesitated, glanced at Summer, and seeing her determined look, he nodded, "Yes, Miss Monroe."
With Attorney Chambers, the contract was quickly prepared.
Summer carefully glanced over the contract and said, "I want to add one more clause. If I meet your conditions, then both of you will resign from your director positions."
Hugo Holden’s face changed slightly, "Why?"
But Morgan Monroe immediately agreed, "Sure! No problem!"
After all, this young girl couldn’t possibly achieve it.
Realizing this as well, Hugo Holden hesitated for two seconds before nodding in agreement.
"Add it then!"
After all, it makes no difference.
This month is a good time for him to rally other directors and prepare for the next chairman election.
Thinking this way, the arrival of this young girl was very timely indeed.
