Gu Chen's term as Shen Fei's interim director had a deadline, which Shen Xian only learned about during an impromptu board meeting.
Initially, due to a significant personnel change within Shen Fei, Gu Chen was appointed by the old master of the Gu family, which caused dissatisfaction among many of the long-standing shareholders.
To apply pressure, they demanded that within three years, Gu Chen must achieve a sixty percent increase in Shen Fei's assets.
If he failed to meet the target, the board would then fairly and justly select a new chairman, and Gu Chen must step down unconditionally.
At that time, the old master of the Gu family was furious with such arrogant, overbearing, and unrealistic demands and was unwilling to let his beloved grandson take on such unreasonable conditions.
