Legal analysis: First of all, we should know what supervisors and directors are. A limited liability company shall have a board of supervisors with no less than three members. A limited liability company with fewer shareholders or smaller scale may have one or two supervisors instead of a board of supervisors. The supervisors are elected by the shareholders' meeting or the shareholders' meeting, and the board of supervisors has a chairman (also called supervisor) who is elected by more than half of all supervisors. Directors and senior managers shall not concurrently serve as supervisors. Directors are democratically elected by the shareholders' (general) meeting or employees, and may be held by shareholders or non-shareholders. The directors and the board of directors shall conduct overall management of the company under the leadership of the shareholders' (general) meeting in accordance with the Company Law and the articles of association. The board of directors shall have a chairman and may have a vice-chairman. The method for the formation of the chairman and vice chairman shall be stipulated in the articles of association. Therefore, the relationship between the supervisor and the chairman is mainly a supervisory relationship, which is mainly manifested in the following aspects: the supervisor has the right to supervise the chairman's performance of the company's duties and put forward suggestions for the dismissal of the chairman who violates laws, administrative regulations, the company's articles of association or the resolutions of the shareholders' meeting; When the chairman's behavior harms the interests of the company, he has the right to ask the chairman to correct it; If the chairman of the board of directors violates laws, administrative regulations or the company's articles of association when performing the duties of the company, and causes losses to the company, he shall be liable for compensation. After receiving a written request from the shareholders of a limited liability company or the shareholders of a joint stock limited company who have held shares of the company 1% or more for more than 180 consecutive days, the board of supervisors may bring a lawsuit to the people's court.
