622 Only by suffering through hardships can one have a backbone
After thinking clearly about these core issues, Shi Wangyue had a backbone.
And his rationality also made Yun Zewu feel that he could temporarily stand up and do something.
After a long moment of silence, he reached out and patted Shi Wangyue on the shoulder, "You have to endure hardships to gain backbone."
——"Let's go."
Then, he pulled Shi Wangyue into the financial room.
"If you want to keep the green hills, you have to keep the business that is most worth keeping."
When he pushed open the door of the finance room, Yun Zewu looked at Shi Wangyue with eyes as bright as a torch.
…
In the next three days, Shi Wangyue, Yun Zewu and the company's entire financial department gathered in the finance room, deducing the company's accounting transactions on the computer over and over again.
As time went on, every financial staff member at Starlight broke out in cold sweat.
The financial director even turned pale.
Yun Zewu's mood became heavier and heavier, and in the end his calm face could no longer maintain its composure.
Only sometimes when I look at the moon, the expression on my face is as cold and calm as usual.
It's as calm as the green mountains in the distance outside the Starlight Office Building.
The accounting is coming to an end.
Shi Wangyue asked the financial director in a low voice, his face pale and his eyes red.
"How many?"
"Fifty-one billion." The financial director's voice was many times softer than usual.
But it's still enough for everyone in the current finance room to hear clearly.
"How long?" Shi Wangyue asked again.
"Three months." The financial director closed his eyes and dryly revealed his estimated time.
All the employees present were shocked.
But what Shi Wangyue said next brought their dizzy minds back to the right path——
"From now on, our goal becomes clear and simple, 5.1 billion in three months."
In the past two months, every decision he and Yun Zewu made was finally implemented into specific figures, which were clearly visible in every expenditure, no matter how big or small.
The whole finance room fell silent instantly.
This number is larger than anyone imagined, and the urgency that needs to be filled is beyond anyone’s imagination.
Yun Zewu immediately looked at Shi Wangyue and said, "Let's go out for a while."
…
The two came out of the finance room, and Shi Wangyue followed Yun Zewu to his office.
As soon as he entered the office, Yun Zewu quickly locked the door.
Then, he brought Shi Wangyue to the large floor-to-ceiling windows of his office, and the two of them looked at the skyline of the capital together.
The sky is pink and blue, as clear and soft as a gouache painting.
The city buildings below are lined up in rows, like a three-dimensional image spread across the feet of the two people.
Through a transparent glass window, everything outside the window looks like everyday, quiet and stable.
But not inside the window. What Yun Zewu was experiencing inside the window was no less than a raging storm.
"Aren't you afraid that our hard work for so long will all come to nothing, just like a dream?"
Since starting the company with Shi Wangyue, Yun Zewu has always felt that the two of them work well together, so the company can maintain healthy development.
No matter whether MM earns more or less in the early years or now, at least financially speaking, the cash flow has always been healthy.
Never before has the fiscal situation been negative like it is now.
Cash flow is the source of water for every company to survive. The drying up of water sources is something that any business owner will be deeply afraid of.
Yunzewu is now facing the deepest fear of all founders.
Just, he really couldn't continue to be stupid and bold, he still wanted to drag Shi Wangyue with him and continue to have sex.
"I'm almost forty years old."
He circled Shi Wangyue, "If I die at the age of eighty and my life is over, we have traveled from abroad to China for more than ten years and spent the best time of each other's lives. It's hard to think that just because we are like this, the future will be bleak? What can we get?
Return everything and let fate laugh at us mercilessly?"
He felt that he really didn't have the tolerance to accept it all at once, "I can't accept such a failure."
"What we are doing now is not for failure." Shi Wangyue looked up at the blue sky outside the window, and a calm and indifferent voice floated into Yun Zewu's ears, "It is to regain the initiative in the second half of life."
It was difficult for Yun Zewu to understand Shi Wangyue's calmness, "Are you really not afraid?"
Shi Wangyue withdrew her gaze from the window and returned it to Yun Zewu's face, "As long as we can survive this time, we won't be afraid of any natural or man-made disasters in the future."
…
Finance Office.
Seeing Shi Wangyue and Yun Zewu go out briefly and then come back, the financial director came over and said, "Mr. Yun, Mr. Shi."
The entire finance room was as quiet as when the two of them went out.
Obviously, everyone is nervously waiting for the next arrangements of the two bosses.
Yun Zewu didn't waste any time after entering. He immediately announced the decision he and Shi Wangyue had made together - "We must immediately implement the second step of protecting the company and find a way to close these loopholes."
It is very urgent and important right now.
Because if this money is not made up, MM may not be able to keep up with the next investment plan.
Good projects don’t come around very often, so if you have one, you must grab it.
But to grab it, you must have the money ready.
After identifying this number, Yun Zewu and Shi Wangyue took action together.
Three months, 6.2 billion yuan.
In the third step, Shi Wangyue and Yun Zewu each led the company's financial staff to calculate their own properties.
The first thing after the calculation was completed, Yun Zewu lent 1.3 billion to the company in his own name, and Shi Wangyue lent 1.5 billion.
In the fourth step, the company is still short of 3.4 billion.
In the past, it was not difficult for MM to raise these funds until Shi Wangyue's credibility was intact.
But now, this 3.4 billion is indeed a huge hole for MM.
There are still two and a half months left.
How can we fix this huge hole that is hanging over the heads of everyone in MM?
…
In Shi Wangyue's office.
Shi Wangyue sat opposite Yun Zewu and said to him, "I'll go get the mortgage."
I don’t know if it’s because I have been alert to financial crises since I was a child.
Shi Wangyue has one of the few major hobbies in her life. In addition to making money and then investing the money, she also likes to use the money she earns to buy a house.
To be more precise, Shi Wangyue likes to buy luxury houses with good locations and good prices all over the world.
Therefore, Yun Zewu has been witnessing Shi Wangyue buying from domestic to overseas and vice versa since he and Shi Wangyue started a company together for more than ten years.
Over the years, the only places he has bought luxury homes with Shi Wangyue include Australia, Hong Kong City, Los Angeles, and London...
