Yao Shengming stood in the suite of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel on the Shanghai Bund, looking at the city lights around 8:30 at night, holding red wine and sighing softly.
The person standing next to him was not his wife, but his favorite woman, his lover Jiang Jingxiang. Jiang Jingxiang was twenty-eight years old at the time, with a height of 1.66 meters, an oval face, delicate facial features, and a classic charm.
It has a cool temperament.
At this time, she was wearing a light apricot-colored suspender skirt with a slightly open neckline. The snow-white valley had a different kind of charm under the bright light. There was a bright smile on her charming face, and she touched Yao Shengming gently.
Putting down the wine glass, "Are you relieved now?"
This morning, when he learned that Jing Gao was called to watch a movie and told that he could not come to Shanghai, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Yao Shengming took a sip of red wine and sighed: "Jingxiang, you don't understand Mr. Jing's portion!"
As things have developed now, the situation between the enemy and ourselves has become clear. It is obvious that Zhou Mingyang wants to use some means to involve Mr. Jing in the capital and prevent him from coming to the capital, so as to gain time to deal with the Mingyuan Group's funds.
crisis.
However, Mr. Jing is said to have rejected Mr. Yu’s negotiation proposal, and went straight to the Magic City regardless of the fact that Phoenix Films was being shorted.
In fact, in the eyes of many outsiders, Mr. Yu’s short selling of Phoenix Films is simply seeking death. Do you know the power of Jing Gao in the financial market?
But he knew very well that as long as Mr. Jing quickly mobilized a large amount of funds to enter the A-share counterattack and eat up Young Master Yu's funds, then Young Master Yu would use the power of off-market recruitment to check Mr. Jing and invite him in for a drink.
Tea.
Don't talk about the law or not. If a top-notch second-generation man like Mr. Yu wants to mess with you, he will have someone to "defend the law" for him. The people under him will definitely be able to ensure that well inspections always comply with procedures and laws and regulations.
Mr. Jing didn't care about the losses caused by Phoenix Films being shorted, and went straight to Magic City to deal with Zhou Mingyang's matter first. It can be said that he was very determined, and he clearly grasped the main contradiction, which is admirable!
According to conventional logic, Mr. Jing could sit in the capital, send his subordinates to the capital to take charge of the overall situation, and get rid of Zhou Mingyang's capital chain. For example, send him, the leader.
But he was a powerful man from Ji Province, and he might not be able to suppress Zhou Mingyang even if he came to Modu.
Now Zhou Mingyang needs to pay US$70 million in compensation because his shipping vessel was delayed in the Suez Canal. Therefore, he is preparing to sell the well-run gaming company under Mingyuan Group, which is currently being sold secretly.
It is impossible to negotiate the sale of a game company with hundreds of millions of assets in half a month. No one is a fool. But he came to Shanghai to do this. It is not difficult to mess up the business. He is the director of Evergreen Group.
The president has been able to do it for so long.
But if he wants to expand this "advantage" and take advantage of the situation to kill Mingyuan Group, he really can't do it. He still doesn't know Mr. Jing's plan, and he is also trying to figure out what Mr. Jing will do when he arrives in the magic city, and where to open the gap.
.
Or maybe Mr. Jing is so confident that he must go to the Magic City to deal with Zhou Mingyang regardless of the stability of the home front. Could it be that he has some dark information about Zhou Mingyang that he doesn't know about?
Jiang Jingxiang giggled, her cold temperament thawed, and her two towering balls trembled slightly under her light apricot suspender skirt. She turned to look at the CEO Yao Shengming, who was full of style, and said with a smile: "Yes, I don't understand!"
"Haha!" Yao Shengming shook his head with a smile, hugging his beloved woman and looking at the bright night view of the Huangpu River outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
Shizuka really doesn’t understand.
If he hadn't decisively surrendered to Mr. Jing at that time, turned from an opponent into the "top horse" of Mr. Jing's command, and helped Mr. Jing take down the powerful Feng, Zhong, Fang, and Wei families in the Magic City, he would not be as prosperous as he is now.
There are various factions on the board of directors of Evergreen Group. Even when his father handles many matters of Evergreen Group, he does so through consultation.
In theory, it was his brother who came to take over from his father, not his younger son. Now he personally holds 5% of the shares of Evergreen Group, firmly occupying the position of president of Evergreen Group, and is responsible for all the affairs of the group.
All this was brought about by Mr. Jing!
Moreover, Mr. Jing is very generous. If he overthrows the Mingyuan Group this time, he will get the ocean shipping, real estate, and financial businesses of the Mingyuan Group. With these three businesses, he can basically control the Evergreen Group.
, to become the real first brother and actual controller of Evergreen Group!
Looking forward to what happens next!
If Mr. Jing hadn't asked him to pick him up at the high-speed rail station and said he wanted to come to Shanghai in a low-key manner, he should actually go to Hongqiao High-speed Railway Station in Shanghai to wait for the arrival of the boss.
…
…
Late at night, Zhou Mingyang was still on the 52nd floor of the Mingyuan Group headquarters building in Pudong, where the chairman's office is located.
Secretary Shen You was waiting outside the office. He and Bo Xujie, the president of Mingyuan Group, were sitting on the floor in the office having a drink.
??????????.??????
"Boss, Jing Gao has come to the Magic City." Zhou Mingyang didn't care about his image. He took the peanuts with his hands and threw them into his mouth. He took another sip of Feitian Maotai and sighed softly while looking at the night view of the Huangpu River outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
This winding Huangpu River carries the dreams and passions of many people in Shengtan Beach, and it is also the place of destination!
Bo Xujie said nothing, and there was a depressing atmosphere in the air.
A week ago, Mr. Zhou talked about this topic, and they all felt the pressure brought by Jing Gao. Unexpectedly, despite all the hard work, this person still came to the Magic City as scheduled on Thursday, which was frightening.
, and accompanied by some unknown premonition.
This feeling has become more and more obvious in my heart.
Bo Xujie is fifty-seven years old this year, ten years older than Zhou Mingyang. But he is not a veteran of the Zhou family, but was personally recruited to Mingyuan Group by Zhou Mingyang more than 20 years ago. At that time, Mingyuan Group was still a family-based company.
A small canning company in Sichuan Province.
In the end, this small canned company gradually grew into a group with assets of more than 200 billion today, involved in real estate, ocean transportation, finance, games, chip design, battery research and development, investment and other businesses.
But such a powerful group and such an outstanding corporate leader would feel inexplicably weak when faced with a young man like Jing Gao.
The assets of Mingyuan Group are not the trillions of assets of some real estate companies, Internet, and financial companies, but real assets that squeeze out all the water. They are ranked among the private companies in Shanghai.
Mr. Zhou is also a guest of the city leaders. Isn’t this powerful enough?
However, because of the bad relationship with Jinggao, they were faced with constant squeeze from various enterprises under the Phoenix Group. All businesses were shrinking across the board, and the capital chain was stretched very tight. This time, the ocean shipping business was suddenly at risk, and it was necessary to compensate International
The insurance company's delay expenses of US$70 million were only 400-500 million yuan in total. As a result, the group was left in dire straits.
How embarrassing is it to call him the executive director and president who is responsible for the daily business of Mingyuan Group?
On the one hand, the crisis came too quickly and too suddenly. Who would have expected that the Suez Canal would suddenly be interrupted for nearly ten days due to the grounding of a cargo ship? On the other hand, Mr. Zhou’s handling was indeed a bit hesitant and he should have sold the goods earlier.
Get rid of the game business.
The capital chain is tight and we can't come up with so much cash for the time being, so we must sell high-quality assets as soon as possible!
Of course, this is because he is too demanding. No matter how outstanding an entrepreneur is, it is impossible to make an immediate decision to sell the group's high-quality assets after encountering a financial crisis. Who is willing to sell the hen that dropped the golden eggs? There must always be a balance.
, hasn’t it been less than a month?
Generally speaking, for such a large company, the decision-making cycle will be about two to three months. Moreover, Mr. Zhou has tried his best to raise funds. He also decided to sell the game business a week ago, but it didn't go well.
Zhou Mingyang and his deputy drank another glass of Moutai, one or two glasses of wine, and drank the taste of the wine. "Boss, I have to rely on you to maintain the group's situation during this period. I want to work harder. I can get through it.
It is best not to survive this crisis..."
Now is not the era of feudalism, and if the crisis cannot be overcome, can he still ask Lao Bo to continue to be loyal to the Zhou family?
Didn’t I see that Song Fa, the assistant of Brother Ren, and Watson, the CEO of the group, both joined Jing Gao’s Phoenix Group?
Bo Xujie's voice was a little dry, maybe because the liquor was a bit hot, "Mr. Zhou, just go ahead and do it. I'm here and Mingyuan Group will remain stable."
However, Mr. Zhou, do you want to sell the game business to Alibaba or Tencent at a 50% discount before we get through this crisis? NetEase is unreliable, and they will not suppress our repayment, right?"
He is not in charge of the specific matters regarding the sale of the game business, it is the CEO of the game business who is in charge of negotiating, but he knows the progress. Mingyuan Group wants to sell the game business, and under the current situation, the market price will definitely be lowered. But no matter how hard the price is lowered, it cannot be suppressed.
Is it 30% off?
It is said that NetEase's boss Ding Sanshi and Jing Gao have a good personal relationship, and they are the kind where they can eat and drink. Then Alibaba and Tencent will always be fine. Don't look at the fact that Tencent is repairing its relationship with Phoenix Group and cooperating in filming movies together, but pony
It’s not like Mr. Ma and Mr. Zhou didn’t know each other, so they wouldn’t have deliberately held back on paying dues.
Zhou Mingyang said softly: "I'm already doing it. I didn't expect him to come so quickly."
Bo Xujie sighed, "Alas." The problem with everything is that Young Master Yu, the "ally" in the capital, did not hold back Jing Gao and asked Jing Gao to come to the Magic City too quickly, leaving them unable to react in time.
Jing Gao once sent someone to contact him and offered him US$100 million to betray Mr. Zhou. There is no need to talk about it at this moment. He will definitely do his job well and will not let Mr. Zhou down.
