While Jing Gao and Wang Hanjun were concentrating on enjoying their world, there was already a storm and noise outside.
HNA sold the assets of its Hong Kong Island Airlines and Fortune Wings Airlines to Phoenix Group for US$2.08 billion. Phoenix Group will pay all in cash. This is a great support for HNA.
Moreover, the news that Bank of East Asia CEO Erwin is about to visit Qiongdao to visit HNA quickly spread throughout the domestic business community. It is reported that Bank of East Asia will provide a credit line of US$1 billion to HNA.
For the elites in the domestic business community, they can basically conclude after seeing this news: HNA has landed.
In modern society, communication methods are developed. Unlike in previous years, information was transmitted by text messages, and making phone calls was troublesome. Now, just post it in the WeChat group and basically everyone will know.
In the WeChat group of the China Entrepreneurs Club, a group of big guys are chatting about this topic. The name of this club looks big, but in fact there are not many members. There are only more than 60 directors in total. Of course, every one of them has He is a well-known figure in the domestic business community.
In 2016, Ma Yun succeeded Lenovo's President Liu as the chairman of the club. There are Midea, Ctrip, Huayi, Lianjia, Ning Gaoning, Feng Lun, Liu Yonghao, Guo Guangchang, Xu Jiayin, Zhou Mingyang, Longhu, Suning, Haidilao, Lei Jun, Yun Yu Feng, co-founder of Feng Fund, etc.
Of course, there are also some well-known business figures who are not in this club. For example, the upstarts of the Internet. And some old entrepreneurs, such as Fuyao, Geely, Wanxiang, Pacific Construction, Wanda, etc.
"@ Mr. An, is your boss Jing so optimistic about HNA? Do you have any inside information? I will follow Mr. Jing and vote for one." Wang Zhongjun, the boss of Huayi Brothers, who bowed his head to Jing Gao and admitted his mistake, and made a toast, teased in the group.
An Zhiwen is also in this group. In fact, most high-level migrant workers are not eligible to join this club. Fang is always the son-in-law of Midea's founder, Mr. He. However, An Zhiwen's status is quite special.
Everyone in China's business community knows that he is Jing Gao's right-hand man. And with the size of Taichu and Phoenix Group, he is qualified enough to be on an equal footing with the bosses here. The resources and decision-making authority he can mobilize are even far away. Much higher than some bosses in the group.
Therefore, it is normal for An Zhiwen to be invited to join this club when he has no personal grudge against anyone in the club. The person who has a grudge against Jack Ma is Jing Gao himself.
Moreover, a very important point is that An Zhiwen graduated from the Guanghua School of Management of Yantai University. He is an outstanding alumnus of Yantai University. He is one of the consultants of the Chinese Entrepreneurs Club.
Guo Guangchang was on a business trip in Germany and was jet-lagged. He asked his assistant to send him a text message and joked in the group: "Oh, Mr. An, having fun alone is not as good as having fun together. What do you think of Phoenix Group?"
A big boss like him is usually so busy that he would like to break every minute into two minutes. Today is just the right time.
In fact, when HNA has problems, many people in the business community are paying attention. Not only domestic, but also various international investment companies and funds. HNA actually has many high-quality assets. They are all waiting for HNA to be sold at a low price!
Unexpectedly, Jing Gao suddenly took action and pulled HNA ashore. Who wouldn't be curious about this?
An Zhiwen was in a meeting and did not respond to the news in time. However, Mr. Liang from Ctrip said in the group: "It is said that Mr. Jing spent a lot of money to get the beauty. He has contacts with the youngest daughter of Mr. Wang of HNA Group. It's a rumor, so I'll leave it at that."
Once it’s said, please just listen to it like this.”
Xiangcheng Food Delivery, a subsidiary of Taichu Group, competes with Meituan. After merging the online travel department of Xia Shang Culture and Tourism, it is competing fiercely with Ctrip in the travel market. Ctrip is still very angry with Xiangcheng.
Therefore, Mr. Liang told the news he heard. He said it was hearsay, but in fact it was breaking news. By the way, he also blackmailed Jing Gao.
Boss Xu from Evergrande likes to have meetings at night. It was around eight or nine in the morning. He was preparing to go to sleep. He heard his assistant talk about this. He picked up his phone and looked at it. He called the assistant back: This is a good talk!
He has a very good personal relationship with Mr. Jing. The two of them recently collaborated on Uber’s listing on Hong Kong Island. They gave Jing Gao a word of help.
Following Boss Xu's statement, some other members in the group followed up: "+1 for beautiful talk"
"Boss Jing is so generous!"
Liang Jianzhang from Ctrip looked at this scene and snorted in displeasure. He could tell that few people in the domestic business community wanted to offend Jing Gao. Unless they were bosses like him who had fierce competition with Jing Gao and it was a matter of life and death.
After Uber went public and stepped down from Li Jiacheng, Jing Gao's prestige in the business world grew day by day.
…
…
Hong Kong Island.
At a golf course in Kowloon, Yao Shengming was wearing autumn clothes and was playing golf with Li Guobao and Li Minqiao, the former CEOs of Bank of East Asia. At this time, his assistant brought the mobile phone over. He said to the Lis and his son: "Sorry, I
Answer the phone."
Li Guobao smiled and made a gesture, "Mr. Yao, we are waiting for you in front." He hit the golf ball far away with one stroke, leaving the space on the golf course for Yao Shengming.
Yao Shengming was the former president of Evergreen Group, who was forced out of office by Jing Gao. He did not stay in the capital all day. He came to Hong Kong Island to meet with the Li family and his son, who were expelled from the Bank of East Asia by Jing Gao, in order to find potential potential.
alliance.
The Lis and his sons were quite unjust. They helped Li Jiacheng pass a message in front of Jing Gao. As a result, after Jing Gao won, he immediately turned his back and began to liquidate. The promise he made to the Lis and his sons when they acquired Bank of East Asia was given to them.
Throw it into the sky.
"Sister Feng, why are you calling me when you have time?" Yao Shengming said with a smile. He was kicked out, and the same unlucky person was Feng Xuehua from the "Shuyun" club in Shanghai.
Feng Xuehua smiled and said: "Why, I can't call you when I'm not free? You know the big things that happened in Qiongdao recently, right?"
Yao Shengming smiled slightly, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, and said, "Of course I know this. Sister Feng, the rumors are true."
Feng Xuehua sneered, and there seemed to be a hint of jealousy in his voice, "The boy named Jing is quite romantic. This matter has also spread in the Magic City, and it seems that many of them have positive comments. Hmph!"
Yao Shengming smiled and said nothing. He knew that Feng Xuehua's heart was as high as the sky. He would probably be unhappy if he said that this world is a man's world after all.
Feng Xuehua said: "Mr. Yao, how are you doing on Hong Kong Island? When Jing Gao went to the south, he offended a lot of people, right? I heard that Wei Chenjun, the girl of the Wei family, is now the one he relies on most.
One of the financial executives.”
Yao Shengming knew the inside story of some things much better than Feng Xuehua, and said: "Sister Feng, you should discuss this matter with your family. In my personal opinion, it cannot be used. I am still busy here.
I will go back to the capital to see you later and have a detailed chat with you."
With that said, he hung up the phone.
Yao Shengming held Gao Erfu's cue and pondered slightly. Not to mention, Feng Xuehua, a thirty-year-old beautiful woman with great ambition and talent, refused to settle down, but one sentence was quite right: Jing Gao offended Hong Kong Island.
There are a lot of people! At least Li Jiacheng has a very bad relationship with him. He still has something he can take advantage of.
