The office seemed a bit dull. Lu Feng and Zhu Lidong smoked in silence for a long time. After a long time, Lu Feng said: "Go and contact me and don't make this matter public, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."
trouble."
"Okay!" Zhu Lidong nodded and agreed.
In John's office at Schroeder Group, several senior executives were sitting across from each other. One of them, a white man in his fifties, said: "We just got the news that Wall Street may be taking action against Thailand."
"Do it?" John was startled and asked hurriedly: "What level? Next Vietnam?"
"No, it's about finance. This matter has something to do with Lu Feng." The other party said briefly, and John secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The current world situation is too tense, like a pile of dry weeds. If there are any sparks, war will break out, especially in Asia.
It's just the financial confrontation, they can still accept it.
"This Lu Feng has caused too many things, and now he has started to make threats. I never thought that such a fragile guy could do so many things." John said about Lu Feng's plan to sell his shares.
Read it again.
At the beginning, John thought that taking control of the Jiafeng Group was not a matter of holding hands with one hand. However, as things have developed today, Lu Feng's tenacity has far exceeded their expectations.
"Do you think he dares to sell it? In other words, is he willing to sell it?" John looked at several people.
This is nothing more than a bet. If Lu Feng dares to sell to a state-owned enterprise, the money he will get will be very small. If he negotiates with them easily, he can still get a lot of money and leave with dignity.
"If you want me to see it, you might as well give it a try."
Domestically, senior executives of Changhong Group were shocked when they received Zhu Lidong's call. At first they thought it was a harassing call from a boring person. It wasn't until Zhu Lidong flew to Sichuan in person to talk about it that the other party confirmed it was true.
In the meeting room of Changhong headquarters, seven or eight senior executives were sitting on the sofa. Mr. Ni was smoking a cigarette and looked at Zhu Lidong, and asked cautiously: "Isn't Jiafeng developing well? What happened?"
"Nothing happened. The market is currently stable. There will be new breakthroughs in the semiconductor field this year. It is expected that the headquarters building will be opened in September." Zhu Lidong replied.
"Is there something wrong with the billions of dollars of overseas financing?" another person asked.
"No, and the contract has been completed a long time ago, otherwise Jiafeng would not have developed so fast." Zhu Lidong could sense their doubts and said: "There is nothing wrong with the company, and what was sold was Mr. Lu's personal equity, mainly because
Some internal situations.”
The man at the end said subconsciously: "I have long heard that they are fighting fiercely among themselves."
Several people looked at the man one after another. The man immediately understood that he had told the truth and coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment. Jiafeng's 10% equity was worth a lot of money. Let's not talk about whether the one-dollar acquisition was true or false. Changhong was really
If you want to invest in Jiafeng, then it will definitely go sideways in the home appliance industry.
Mr. Ni smoked his cigarette in silence. After thinking for a moment, he almost understood in his mind that there was no way the pie would be lost in the world. Why was he looking for Changhong instead of other companies? There was only one possibility. He was interested in Changhong's status as a military industrial enterprise.
.
"Anyway, the two companies are old friends. If my friend has something to do, he must help." Mr. Ni threw the cigarette butt in the ashtray and said to Zhu Lidong: "Well, we can sign an agreement
However, this contract is not enforceable. It will pay us two million every month. If anything happens, we can cooperate with each other."
Zhu Lidong was happy when he heard this, and he still enjoyed chatting with smart people. The two companies were on the same level, and Zhu Lidong really couldn't say anything about wanting to borrow his identity as a military industrial company.
Now everyone understands what each other means. The only drawback is that two million is too much.
"You are a sensible person, but two million a month is too expensive, isn't it?" Zhu Lidong smiled awkwardly and said, "Because the equity is Mr. Lu's personal equity, this money cannot be paid by the company. This money
For Mr. Lu, it’s too high.”
Sign a contract with each other, two hundred a month?
Everyone present felt that it was too expensive, and it was ridiculously expensive. Let alone one month, even if it averaged over a year, it would cost more than hundreds of thousands, and no one could afford it.
Someone next to him thought this business was good and wanted to give some advice. Mr. Ni quickly waved his hand to stop him and said, "Mr. Zhu, you are in the market. You should understand the truth. There are two precious things in this world. One is less and the other is wealth."
It's urgent, it's small and it's urgent, but tons of gold can't buy it."
At this point, Zhu Lidong knew in his heart that he had already fallen into a passive position by coming to look for him in a hurry, and it was not a loss to receive this knife.
The two sides changed the subject, drank tea for a long time, and had lunch together, but they still refused to let go, so Zhu Lidong had no choice but to agree. In the past few days, the lawyers of both parties were contacted to work out an agreement as soon as possible.
In mid-July 1996, Tiger Fund and Quantum Fund signed a loan agreement with the Federal Reserve, using the two funds' hundreds of billions of dollars in capital as a base, leveraging hundreds of billions of dollars, and then began to sign loans internationally.
Thai Baht, borrowed US dollars as collateral.
In late July, in the hot summer, a piece of news spread like wildfire. Lu Feng, the founder of Jiafeng Group, signed an agreement with Changhong Group. Both parties intended to sell 10% of Jiafeng's equity for one yuan.
Domestic business circles were shocked when they heard the news. They didn't know what had happened. Privately, some people rumored that Jiafeng was too big and had foreign capital behind it, so the government put pressure on Jiafeng to nationalize it.
Various rumors in the business world have also spread to the top management. Lu Feng received several calls, hoping that he would stand up and explain that the current domestic economic situation is relatively fragile and not to cause capital panic to avoid problems such as the flight of foreign capital.
Lu Feng took space in many newspapers and media and explained in a few simple sentences: Extraordinary times require extraordinary perseverance to achieve extraordinary results. If you don't succeed, you would rather stay with your 'family' than with foreign invaders!
In just ten days, there were constant calls from all kinds of people, whether they were former opponents or friends, wanting to know what happened.
Lu Feng didn't say anything, he just told everyone to overcome the difficulties together and lay off as few people as possible in the next few years.
China's economy has been really difficult this year. There seems to be a dark cloud above everyone's head. Everyone feels very depressed. Domestic production has reached its peak, foreign trade cannot go out, and various voices from overseas are rampant, and even more talk of collapse.
Everlasting.
Jiafeng's development has also encountered bottlenecks. Domestic consumption power has peaked, and overseas markets cannot be opened. Some people in the management still have illusions about the annual target of 2 billion. Lu Feng knows that this is the best year in the next few years.
, it was not until that person came forward that he began to aggressively issue national bonds and start the development of the western region, and then a new economic cycle began.
Overseas newspapers reprinted the story of Lu Feng's equity transfer, and the evaluation was naturally not very good. Lu Feng didn't take it seriously after reading it. He was not waiting for anything now, just waiting for John to dare to gamble.
In the blink of an eye, it was August 1st. Feng Zhiyao couldn't wait any longer and called Lu Feng. During this period, Feng Zhicheng was frantically smearing him in the major media, describing him as a villain who killed his father to make money. He was helpless.
Endured it.
"Then don't wait. Since they don't respond, I will go there myself. Tomorrow I will announce to the media that I am going to Xiangjiang. I will go there the day after tomorrow." Lu Feng said solemnly.
The two discussed for a while and then hung up the phone. Jiang Xiaoyan sighed and said, "Do you have to go now? You have reached where you are today, and you should know one thing, that is, you need to know how to advance and retreat."
"I can hide, but Jiafeng can't. After so many years of hard work, I am not willing to be taken away. The most important thing is that there is only one private semiconductor company in the country." Lu Feng lit a cigarette and sighed.
He took a breath and said, "You can't be bullied like this!"
Seeing that he refused to give in, Jiang Xiaoyan said, "As the old saying goes, he who knows the current affairs is a hero..."
"What is current affairs? Are strong ships and cannons current affairs, or are bandit tactics called current affairs?" Lu Feng suddenly became very excited. He stood up and said: "I have worked hard for so many years, and the communication chips have finally caught up. Now they give me a sum of money."
Dismissed me?"
"What are you yelling about?" Jiang Xiaoyan saw that he was very emotional and didn't want to say anything. She stood up and walked upstairs. She walked up the stairs and turned around and said, "What if you let someone be detained in a small dark room and killed? Your life is at stake.
!”
Lu Feng sat there silently, so this situation was not impossible.
Early the next morning, Lu Feng contacted the newspaper and bought a few headlines to publish that he was going to Xiangjiang on August 3rd, mainly to visit his investor Mr. Feng.
Also on this day, Lu Feng's private plane brought over a dozen people from Thailand to serve as security for his trip tomorrow.
Lu Feng is coming, and he is coming with great fanfare.
This was a naked provocation to the UK. On that day, the British media published a report classifying Lu Feng as a criminal. As long as he entered Hong Kong, he would be arrested immediately.
On the morning of August 3rd, an official article was published. It was about Lu Feng. The wording was not strong. It just stated that as a citizen of China, if Lu Feng was arrested in Xiangjiang, he should produce strong enough evidence.
Rather than making something out of nothing.
This can be regarded as an official vaccination against Lu Feng's appearance.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Lu Feng and his group of 20 people boarded the cruise ship and headed to Xiangjiang. During half an hour on the ship, Lu Feng made a phone call to John, and the content was very simple.
"I don't know what will happen at the end of the year, but if something happens to me this time, then I guarantee you that there will be nothing at the end of the year." Lu Feng said solemnly into the phone.
