After breakfast, Yang Chen and Yu Shishi drove away from home respectively.
Yang Chen went to Longlian Supermarket Group to inspect the work, and Yu Shishi went to the bank to find out how much money Haishang Financial Building could mortgage.
Soon, Yang Chen came to Longlian Supermarket Group and met Chairman Pu Chunhua.
The eldest son of Pu Zhengguo, the founder of Puchun Hualonglian Supermarket, currently holds 4% of the shares.
Longlian Supermarket Co., Ltd. was established in May 1991. It is the first supermarket company in Haicheng characterized by chain sales and has a high reputation in Longguo.
In 2002, it was renamed Longlian Supermarket Group and listed on the A-share main board in June 2003. In 2013, Lianbai Group acquired 51% of the shares.
At present, the group has more than 1,500 chain stores nationwide, with at least one in basically every city.
The company's total share capital is 1.5 billion shares, but the stock price is only a pitiful 2.3 yuan/share.
The reason is that the performance is not good. It makes a profit every year and loses a year. Last year, the loss was as high as 3 billion. It lost all the profits since its listing.
This is also the reason why Lianbai Group sold its shares. They really don’t want to be dragged down by the poor performance of Longlian Supermarket.
However, Yang Chen doesn't care, the company's loss does not affect his distribution of money.
For example, Hengda Group's loss of 2 trillion yuan does not affect Boss Xu and others from becoming regulars on the rich list.
If Yang Chen has the ability to reverse the decline, it will not be difficult to rise tenfold in the future if the stock price is so low.
If we have to say what advantage it has, it is its thirty-year history and strong business reputation.
If you can continue playing, just play. If you can't, sell your stocks and leave. It's too easy for listed companies to cash out.
Pu Chunhua introduced the current general situation of the company to Yang Chen, and then asked: "Mr. Yang, is he going to be the chairman himself, or is he going to ask someone else to take charge?"
Yang Chen said with a smile: "For now, let Mr. Pu continue to do it. As long as Mr. Pu does well, he can keep doing it."
Pu Chunhua quickly replied: "Thank you Mr. Yang for your trust. I will definitely do my best."
"Oh, by the way, let me show you someone." Yang Chen said, took out his mobile phone, opened the video and showed it to Pu Chunhua.
Pu Chunhua recognized the woman in the video at a glance and said quickly: "This is our financial director Li Xiaoying. It's so presumptuous for her to talk to Mr. Yang like this."
"This kind of person affects our company's image too much. Fortunately, she met me. If she met another driver, it would definitely be a public relations accident. Fire her immediately without any room for negotiation! No compensation should be given to her.
Just let her go away." Yang Chen said firmly.
Pu Chunhua nodded and immediately called the head of the human resources department to fire Li Xiaoying according to normal procedures.
Soon, Li Xiaoying received the news of being fired.
As the financial director, Li Xiaoying was suddenly fired. Of course she was not convinced and immediately came to the chairman's office.
"Please come in!" Pu Chunhua shouted.
Li Xiaoying walked in together with the head of the human resources department.
"Director Pu, why did you suddenly fire me for no reason? I am the director of the finance department after all, should you give me an explanation?" Li Xiaoying said angrily.
At this time, Yang Chen turned around.
"It's you! You...why are you here?" Li Xiaoying was shocked.
Pu Chunhua immediately said: "This is the new major shareholder of our group, Yang Chen, Mr. Yang. I have watched the video of your performance in his car last night. Mr. Yang and I agree that your behavior seriously damaged
The image of our Longlian Group. Fortunately, it was Mr. Yang who pulled you last night. If it was another driver who uploaded the video to the Internet, it would have a bad impact on Longlian Group. Don’t you know?
?Not long ago, an employee of an aerospace research company caused a strong online public opinion by threatening the driver, which caused great trouble to the company. We don’t want to encounter such a thing. I decided to fire you and got Mr. Yang’s permission.
.You go to the market to hand over the work and go through the resignation procedures, and we will give you the severance compensation you deserve. But if you don't cooperate, then we will hold you responsible for affecting the company's image. The severance compensation will definitely be gone, and you may also be
Hold accountable.”
Li Xiaoying was so shocked that she was speechless.
Yesterday, she threatened to file a complaint against Yang Chen so that he would not be able to continue.
Today Yang Chen acquired the group's equity and fired her directly.
Is the revenge mentality of men today so serious?
In order to fight for a while, he even spent more than one billion to buy the group's equity, just to fire her!
"Aren't you an online ride-hailing driver? How can you have the money to acquire the equity of Longlian Group? Just to retaliate against me, you spend more than a billion to fire me?" Li Xiaoying asked in confusion.
"There are some things you don't need to know, and I don't want to talk to you. You can just follow the company's decision." Yang Chen said ruthlessly.
Li Xiaoying still harbored fantasies and said, "Can't we really just be more generous?"
Yang Chen shook his head.
"Haha... OK, I understand. The group has been losing money, and now it is controlled by an online ride-hailing driver. It is not far from being delisted. It's good to go now. When you save money, you won't even get your salary!" Li Xiaoying deliberately
Sarcastically.
Pu Chunhua pointed at her and shouted: "Get out immediately!"
The head of the human resources department quickly pulled Li Xiaoying away.
Pu Chunhua quickly apologized to Yang Chen, and Yang Chen waved his hand and said: "It has nothing to do with you. However, a financial director mocked our group for delisting, doesn't Mr. Pu feel ashamed? Your father founded Longlian Supermarket back then, is it possible that he
Is it going to go bankrupt in your hands without even reaching the third generation?"
"Sigh...Mr. Yang is right. I am very ashamed. It's just that after we lost the right to speak, many policies were vetoed by Lianbai Group. I am helpless." Pu Chunhua said helplessly.
Yang Chen nodded and asked: "Then tell me what policies you have."
Pu Chunhua quickly expressed his thoughts.
At present, there are many supermarket chains in China, and their brands are louder and have more stores than Longlian.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Relying solely on domestic business, Longlian Supermarket may never be able to counterattack.
Therefore, Pu Chunhua came up with the idea of a "domestic and overseas supply chain".
Longlian Group acquired a sizable overseas shopping chain store and a supplier with import and export capabilities and distribution capabilities. This way it can keep the price of imported goods to the lowest and gain the ability to compete with other supermarkets.
Now that national income has increased a lot, many people want to try foreign products.
But in everyone’s perception, foreign products are expensive.
But foreign goods are actually very cheap in foreign countries. Based on income and purchasing power, foreign goods are much cheaper than domestic goods.
Therefore, if the prices of imported goods can be brought down, Longlian Supermarket can rely on this business to achieve counterattack, and drive the development of domestic goods business.
This is probably what I mean, we need to find another way to counterattack by relying on imported goods.
Yang Chen smiled and nodded, saying: "Mr. Pu's idea is very good, I think you can give it a try. Do you have any acquisition targets?"
Pu Chunhua nodded and said: "I screened many companies and selected two of them. Higo No. 1 Haodian Group and Binhai Import and Export Trading Company. Both companies are of considerable scale. Higo No. 1 Haodian Group
The valuation is 1.5 billion, and Binhai Import and Export Trading Company is valued at 1 billion. We can issue additional shares to finance the acquisition of these two companies."
"The idea is very good, so why doesn't Lianbai Group agree?" Yang Chen asked.
Pu Chunhua sighed and said: "They have lost confidence in Longlian Group. They don't want to bother anymore and just want to make a move. But I don't have that much money to buy back their equity, so I can only watch opportunities come and go.
Missed."
Yang Chen nodded and said: "I support you, just follow this method. You should talk to those two companies immediately."
Pu Chunhua nodded and said: "I understand. Thank you Mr. Yang for your support. No matter whether this method can save the company or not, I will do my best without regrets or let Mr. Yang down."
Yang Chen is still the hands-off shopkeeper as always, just leave it to Pu Chunhua.
……
At noon, Li Lianxiong called Yang Chen.
"At seven o'clock in the evening, go to the Peninsula Hotel No. 1 Banquet Hall for a party. I will arrange a blind date for you, so you behave well."
"No problem!"
After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen immediately sent a message to Zhou Bin.
"I will go to a party in the Peninsula Hotel's No. 1 Ballroom in the evening, and I will bring a girl to pretend to be on a blind date. I will fulfill my promise, and the rest is up to you."
"No problem!"
……
Yang Chen suddenly felt like an intermediary, tinkering in the middle and making money from both ends.
After a while, Yu Shishi sent a message to Yang Chen.
"Sir, I asked the four major banks. The highest they gave was 2.5 billion, and the lowest was 2 billion. The valuation of Haishang Financial Building they gave was 3-3.5 billion, which is basically a 30% discount. If you are sure to mortgage, start from
It takes about one and a half months from signing the contract to disbursing the loan. The interest rate is 4.5% for a loan period of less than one year, 4.8% for more than one year and less than five years, and 5.2% for more than five years. The four companies offer the same rate."
"Okay, I get it!"
……
At seven o'clock in the evening, Yang Chen arrived at the Banquet Hall No. 1 of the Peninsula Hotel on time.
Li Lianxiong sent the photo of his blind date.
Yang Chen was looking around when the girl walked up to him.
"Hello, I am sent by Director Li. My name is Zhang Jing. Follow me."
Yang Chen nodded and followed Zhang Jing to an empty table and sat down.
After a while, Li Lianxiong came with Li Yanyun and others, and they happened to sit next to each other at the next table.
Li Yanyun recognized Yang Chen at a glance and quickly ran over to say hello.
"Yang Chen, you are here too!" Li Yanyun said with a smile.
Yang Chen quickly stood up, pretending to be scared, and said to Zhang Jing: "I'm a passenger, it's so annoying to pester me."
Zhang Jing stood up and said with a smile: "Hello, I am Yang Chen's fiancée. If you need a car, you are welcome to find him. But if you have other ideas, I hope you can stop immediately and not affect the relationship between us.
."
The smile on Li Yanyun's face disappeared, and then she forced a smile again and said: "I understand, I understand! Then... you continue, I won't disturb you."
After saying that, Li Yanyun hurried back to her father, picked up the wine on the table and started drinking.
Li Lianxiong did not stop her and let her drink it.
Zhou Bin, who was not far away, was very satisfied after seeing it and thought to himself: "This guy is quite particular and he does what he says."
Yang Chen sent messages to both Li Lianxiong and Zhou Bin.
"I've already taken care of the matter, and what happens next has nothing to do with me."
Li Lianxiong: "Well, I guess you know the truth. You can leave now."
Zhou Bin: "You are quite particular, and the 300,000 yuan was not spent in vain. I am not a bully, you can leave now."
Yang Chen and Zhang Jing got up and left.
Zhang Jing really left, but Yang Chen didn't leave. He turned around and returned to the banquet site and came to Pu Chunhua's table.
Pu Chunhua whispered: "Mr. Yang, do you know the daughter of Li Lianxiong, the chairman of Higo No. 1 store?"
Yang Chen nodded and said: "We know each other, maybe. She has been in my car."
"Oh, that's it. That is Zhou Hai, the boss of Binhai Import and Export Trading Company, and the one next to him is his son Zhou Bin." Pu Chunhua continued.
Holy shit, isn’t this a coincidence?
Higo No. 1 is owned by Li Lianxiong’s family, and Binhai Import and Export Trading Company is owned by Zhou Bin’s family, and these two companies are acquisition targets of Pu Chunhua’s transformation and counterattack plan.
I didn’t want to show off at first, but now it seems I can’t do it anymore. After all, Yang Chen has the final say in the Longlian Supermarket Group, and he will definitely need his nod to acquire these two companies.
At this time, Zhou Bin left the scene.
Tonight's banquet is hosted by Zhang Huiming, the son of Lianbai Group, and Zhou Bin is Zhang Huiming's younger brother.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Zhou Bin has already told Zhang Huiming in advance that he will propose to Li Yanyun at his banquet tonight.
Li Lianxiong has also said hello. Regardless of whether Li Yanyun agrees or not, Li Lianxiong will definitely agree.
So now Zhou Bin is going out to prepare.
After a while, Li Yanyun, who had drunk too much, got up and went to the toilet, and happened to pass by Yang Chen.
She sat down next to Yang Chen and asked: "Where is your fiancée?"
"Let's go!" Yang Chen replied.
"Leave? She left, why did you stay?" Li Yanyun asked.
"Stay and join in the fun." Yang Chen said nonsense.
"Why do you suddenly have a fiancée? I think you are very good, and I want to try developing a relationship with you." Li Yanyun asked.
"Ms. Li must have had too much to drink. We have only met a few times, and you want to try developing a relationship with me?" Yang Chen replied.
Li Yanyun drank a little too much, her face turned red, she looked at Yang Chen from bottom to top, her forehead was almost touching Yang Chen's nose, and said: "I told you, except for being poor, everything else is good for you.
I want to have a relationship with you without getting married. Have you forgotten?"
Pu Chunhua next to him raised his eyebrows and thought: "He is poor? If he is poor, he can still spend more than one billion to acquire Longlian Group. So what does it mean to be rich? Silly girl, have you been deceived by him pretending to be poor?"
Yang Chen quickly replied: "I have no interest in falling in love with you. You should go back quickly. If people see you like this, they will misunderstand us."
Li Yanyun put her arms on Yang Chen's shoulders and said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of a girl, so what are you, a grown man, afraid of?"
At this time, Zhou Bin took the stage with a group of younger brothers.
The younger brothers unfurled a banner with the words "Li Yanyun, marry me" written on it.
The guests at the scene were all ready to watch the excitement.
Zhou Bin took the microphone and said loudly: "Everyone, I'm sorry to take up a little of your time. I have already agreed with Mr. Zhang to take this opportunity to let all distinguished guests help me bear witness. Li Yanyun, I love you, marry me."
!"
After saying that, Zhou Bin knelt down on one knee, took out the engagement ring, and waited for Li Yanyun's response.
However, only then did he realize that Li Yanyun was not in his seat.
Li Lianxiong stood up with a smile and replied loudly: "Thank you Mr. Zhou for your love for my Yanyun. It's convenient for her to go to the bathroom. Just wait a moment and she will be back soon."
Just then, someone shouted "Miss Li is here".
Everyone followed the sound and looked over, and the scene immediately became awkward.
Li Yanyun was lying in Yang Chen's arms and saying something, and Yang Chen kept trying to push her out, but she just wanted to lie in his arms.
What's going on?
Zhou Bin proposed to Li Yanyun, but Li Yanyun was lying in the arms of another man. Should the plot be so exciting?
All the guests showed a cheerful smile.
Zhou Bin, a fool, didn't even understand what the girl was thinking, so he proposed directly. This must be embarrassing and embarrassing.
Pu Chunhua lowered his head in embarrassment and whispered: "Mr. Yang, everyone is looking at you."
Yang Chen glanced at Pu Chunhua helplessly and thought: "Haha... Thank you for reminding me, I can see it myself."
