I own 40% of the shares. Two partners hold 30% of the shares. What did I say? What are the rights and interests?

Generally speaking, investors will think that the more shares, the better, which will not only make a fortune at the shareholders' meeting, but also better control the company. However, the fact is not what we want. After several rounds of financing, the initial shareholders only account for a small part of the company's equity. They can't absolutely or effectively control the company, but they can still influence the company's major issues or safeguard their legitimate rights and interests within the scope of the company's articles of association or company law.

For example, (1/3): Article 44 of the Company Law: Unless otherwise provided for in this Law, the discussion methods and voting procedures of the shareholders' meeting shall be stipulated in the company's articles of association.

The shareholders' meeting shall make resolutions on amending the Articles of Association, increasing or decreasing the registered capital, and on the merger, division, dissolution or change of corporate form of the company, which must be approved by shareholders representing more than two thirds of the voting rights.

Yi Tian's explanation is that the key lies in this "more than two thirds". When converted into percentage, the shares must be equal to or greater than 66.7% in order to pass the above resolution. If the shares of one shareholder exceed 33.3 1%, the shares of other shareholders add up to less than 66.7%. Therefore, as long as this shareholder votes against it, it is decided that the resolution of the shareholders' meeting cannot be passed, which is equivalent to.

Then, what other provisions about the importance of equity ratio are there in the Company Law? Tianyi lawyer made the following form:
