Is the general manager appointed by the shareholders' meeting or the board of directors?

Legal analysis: the board of directors produces the general manager. The directors are elected by the shareholders' meeting. The board of directors elects the chairman (with the consent of more than half of the directors), and the board of directors decides to appoint or dismiss the general manager of the company. In short, the general meeting of shareholders produces the chairman and the board of directors produces the general manager. The chairman is responsible for implementing the resolutions of the shareholders' meeting, and the general manager is responsible for implementing the resolutions of the board of directors.

Legal basis: Article 49 of the Company Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), a limited liability company may have a manager, and the appointment or dismissal shall be decided by the board of directors. The manager is responsible to the board of directors and exercises the following powers:

(1) To preside over the production, operation and management of the company and organize the implementation of the resolutions of the board of directors;

(2) Organizing the implementation of the company's annual business plan and investment plan;

(3) To formulate plans for the establishment of the company's internal management organization;

(4) To formulate the basic management system of the company;

(5) To formulate specific rules of the company;

(six) to propose the appointment or dismissal of the company's deputy manager and financial officer;

(7) To decide on the appointment or dismissal of management personnel other than those who should be decided by the board of directors;
