Chapter 194


    Gentry was taken aback, "I need to analyze the asset structure of the acquiredpany in detail


    before I can give you a clear answer."


    "So, what do you think the ratio of cash flow to stock payments will be this year? Considering the


    current pace of development, what kind of dividend distribution n should thepany adopt to


    maximize the interests of shareholders and thepany?"


    Gentry seemed a bit ill at ease, "I need to study these issues in detail before I can give you an


    answer."


    "You im to have a deep understanding of thepany''s financial situation, but I''ve asked you


    several questions in a row and you can''t give me an immediate answer, is this your so-called deep


    understanding?" Izzy retorted, her tone growing stern.


    With Izzy''s question, the other directors and senior managers of thepany all turned their gaze


    toward him, with some doubting him and some disappointed and distrusting him.


    Gentry''s face becameplicated, he was unable to control his emotions, "Izzy, you''re deliberately


    making things difficult for me. All this data can''t be obtained immediately, it needs time to be


    calcted carefully." This is something Izzy certainly knows, it''s the nature of finance work. Unlike


    sales and purchasing, where familiar situations can be talked about fluently, finance is both rigorous


    andplex, and any miscalction could potentially affect thepany''s development strategy,


    causing an incalcble loss.


    Any experienced finance personnel wouldn''t dare speak carelessly, all they could offer was a


    development idea.


    "You said it takes time, so what''s the problem if I need some time to understand thepany''s


    situation? Why do you assume that I can''t handle this job?"


    "Izzy, you''re muddying the waters, we''re not discussing the same issue." Gentry firmly retorted.


    Izzy scoffed, her tone firm, "Whether it''s muddying the waters or not, you know it yourself. I am


    giving you two days to organize thepany''s financial reports for the past three years and the


    quarterly report for the first quarter of this year. I want to see them the day after tomorrow."


    "Two days is too short." Gentry said.


    "I''m already being lenient by not asking you to have those reports on my desk by tomorrow


    morning. It''s almost June now, the reports for the past three years should have beenpleted


    long ago, and the quarterly report for the first quarter should also be out. If you can''t get them out in


    two days, what kind of work efficiency is that? Or are there some signs on the reports that you''ve


    tampered with? Do you think the time I gave you is too short and not enough for you to cover up?"


    Izzy''s words left Gentry speechless. If he dodged any further, he might be suspected of tampering


    with the reports. This young woman was really sharp.


    Gentry''s face turned sour, he clearly knew that Izzy was deliberately making things difficult for him,


    but he couldn''t refute her.


    "Ms. Galeana, please don''t nder me without evidence."


    "This is just a reasonable assumption; it''s your attitude that aroused my suspicion."


    Gentry gritted his teeth and epted the task Izzy had set for him, "I understand, I will hand in the


    report on time in two days."


    Ss was pleased with Izzy''s performance, thinking that Mr. Galeana''s judgment was indeed correct


    and that Izzy really possessed the ability to manage thepany. Although she was not talkative,


    once she spoke, she could leave people speechless, even picky Gentry couldn''t stand against her.Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    "Does anyone have any other questions? If so, please raise them all at once." Izzy asked the crowd


    again.


    After Gentry''s lesson, the directors of the other departments, although dissatisfied, didn''t dare


    speak out at the moment, they simply replied, "No, we will follow the chairman''s arrangements."


    Izzy nodded, "Then you should do the same, directors of each department. Write a detailed report


    on the situation of each department over the past three years and submit it to me within a week."


    All the directors nodded one after another, feeling that a week was much more rxed than two


    days. Fortunately, they didn''t speak out just now, otherwise, they might be the ones crying now.


    Gentry felt oppressed, he didn''t expect to meet such a talkative person. He couldn''t help but look up


    at Izzy, only to find that Izzy was also looking at him. She gave a slight smile, "Mr. Gentry, I forgot to


    tell you. I''ve been a practicing CPA for five years, so you''d better be meticulous in your financial


    work, don''t think you can pull one over on me."


    Gentry stiffened, feeling like he had really bad luck. He had rashly asked questions before looking


    into her background, only to encounter an expert. Looking at the expression on Gentry''s face,


    someone next to him couldn''t help butugh.


    Izzy also gave a slight smile, "I know I might look young, but I''m actually almost thirty and have


    been struggling in society for several years, I''m only a few years younger than you."


    Izzy''s self-praise made everyone present burst intoughter, even Ssughed and looked at Izzy


    with a few more appreciative nces.


    After the meeting, a man in his fifties stayed behind, walked over to Izzy, and looked at her carefully


    with a friendly smile on his face, "I didn''t expect the little girl from back then to be so capable.


    Not only does she look like her mother, but her way of doing things is also simr." Izzy didn''t


    remember the man in front of her, so she looked at Ss, who exined with a smile, "Ms. Izzy, this


    is Mr. Clifton; he''s always been in charge of logistics. You used to love messing around in his


    department when you were little, always making a mess of the whole logistics department."


    Hearing Ss say this, Izzy gave a slight smile, "I''m sorry, Mr. Clifton, I had some idents in the


    past few years and my memory was somewhat damaged, so I don''t remember some things."


    Cliftonughed and waved his hand, "It''s okay, I''m relieved to see you doing well now. I''m sure the


    company will get through this difficult time with you here."


    Izzy nodded, and after Clifton left, Ss exined, "He''s an old employee who co-founded the


    company with Mr. Galeana; he''s very loyal to thepany and a trustworthy person."


    "Ss, could you do me a solid and sort out a list of thepany staff, you know, like who''s a


    hundred percent and who''s maybe got bad vibes for thepany? Just so I know what''s what."


    Ss nodded, "Sure thing."


    "Alright, let''s get outta here then."


    "Ms. Galeana, there''s something I want to get off my chest. Even though you''ve had some beef with


    the chairman, I''ve watched you grow up, you know, and I''d like it if you could still call me Ss like


    before."


    Izzy was taken aback for a moment before nodding and saying, "Gotcha." Ss''s face broke into a


    satisfied grin.
