As soon as the guest began to flood the Song Hua Garden, the atmosphere was lifted with talks and laughter. The Song Hua garden is the residence of the Han family.
Han family was not a prominent family in Jin city. They own the HY enterprise which is one of the biggest pharmaceutical and Bioengineering companies. They also set their foothold in the Tech industry and Retail Industry. For the past few years, they have set their eyes on Finance and Investment sector. There was also talk that they will launch their own entertainment business soon.
With such great achievements in their portfolio, They can be considered one of the richest families yet are well known for their moral grounds, simple, humble living, and social work.
Today marks the 60th Birthday of the current Chairman of HY enterprise, Han Tian Yu. The man started with nothing but his knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and build the current HY enterprise.
When almost all the guests have arrived, the Han family announced that the banquet began officially. Within a few minutes, Han Tian Yu joined. People gave their toast and gifts to him. After receiving the guests, Han Tian Yu stood up and cleared his throat. Soon, everyone stopped what they were doing and shifted their focus to him.
"I am happy and grateful towards all the guests who joined today's banquet. Taking this opportunity, I would like to make an announcement. Given my age, I am planning to retire from the post of the Chairman of HY enterprises. It's an unofficial announcement. An official announcement will be made shortly. I have already decided who will be taking on the position after me. I have chosen this person after a long consideration. I wish all my business partners, employees, the board of directors, and friends will give their support to my Grand-daughter Han Xin Long."
His sudden announcement caused an uproar in the banquet. It's well-known in the circle that the Old Master Han had a daughter and no other children. People always speculated that it will be either his son-in-law or one of his two grandsons who will inherit the company when his daughter died four years back. Since then, the three men have been working hard to gain the support of the board members and business partners openly and behind the doors. But Han Tian Yu's sudden announcement of making his granddaughter who is the youngest among his grandchildren shocked not only the people who gathered but also his family.
"Father, Xin Long is young and she doesn't have any experience in managing the company.", Chen Liu Qiang, Han Tian Yu's Son-in-law spoke.
"I said I am announcing and not asking for anyone's opinion.", Han Tian Yu's firm voice echoed leaving no more space for discussion.
With the banquet continued, some minds were also busy brewing schemes to snatch the position. After all, they worked and endured whatever they faced way too long only for this position. And they are not willing to let go of it.
