"Try your best to win, but if you really can't win, then forget it. We will look for other partners." Meng Chunting suddenly waved her hand, putting an end to this sterile argument between Xu Jianguo and Zhao Chunlin.
"Zhou Nan, you and Chairman Lan Ruo of Lanli Energy are college classmates. You can think of a way to see if you can maintain the cooperation. If you can ensure that the cooperation is completed according to our expected goals, then you will be the leader of the company.
Meritorious person—the company’s party committee will serve you a celebratory drink!”
In fact, Meng Chunting's real words have not been spoken yet. Her real intention is to pave the way for Zhou Nan to avoid the backlash of some leaders when she hands over the management of the new company to Zhou Nan in the future.
Having said that, the project was promoted by Zhou Nan. It is natural for Zhou Nan to serve as the general manager of the new joint-stock company on behalf of the company and manage the company. Ability is not a problem, but Zhou Nan's "weakness" is that he is too young and has very little qualifications, so
Meng Chunting had to take action in advance to "clear the obstacles" for him.
Zhou Nan immediately stood up and said loudly, "Mr. Meng and other leaders, please rest assured that I will try my best to fight for it!"
Xu Jianguo smiled and said, "Okay, Xiao Zhou, we are waiting for your good news!"
Zhao Chunlin also glanced at Zhou Nan, nodded slightly to him, and squeezed out a smile on his originally stiff face.
…
While Zhou Nan was having a meeting, Liu Jie and Lin Xueer from Lanli Energy had already arrived at Xinghai Company and were talking in the reception room accompanied by Dong Qiliang and Ma Xiaojing.
Lin Xueer thought that Zhou Nan was hiding behind closed doors. After waiting for a long time to see Zhou Nan, she still didn't show up, so she frowned and said, "Manager Dong, your Mr. Zhou is really arrogant! No matter what, we are still partners, let's do it
It’s been so long and he hasn’t even come out to see me!”
Liu Jie chuckled, "Xue'er, don't be anxious, Mr. Zhou must be busy with something, don't be anxious, let's wait a little longer!"
Ma Xiaojing glanced at the two of them and saw that they were obviously one of the popular ones and the other of the bad ones. She sneered in her heart, but smiled attentively on her face and said, "Minister Liu, Miss Lin, I'm really sorry. Mr. Zhou is going to the general manager."
The company is having a meeting and he hasn’t come back yet. The office will notify him as soon as he comes back! Please have tea, please!"
While the four people were talking in the reception room, Zhou Nan had already returned to his office. Liang Lili, a general office clerk, knocked on the door with a smile and walked in and said, "Mr. Zhou, Minister Liu and Miss Lin from Lan's Enterprise are here.
Waiting in the room...you are..."
Liu Jie and Lin Xueer's unsolicited visit had long been expected by Zhou Nan. He didn't call Lan Ruo at all. He expected that Lan's Enterprise would not let go of the great opportunity of backdoor listing.
Zhou Nan smiled lightly, "I have something to do, so let them wait for a while."
Liang Lili was startled, but she didn't dare to ask anything.
…
Zhou Nan slowly opened the door to the reception room and smiled loudly, "I'm sorry, Director Liu and Miss Lin, for keeping you waiting. I'm going to the head office for a meeting. It's an unlucky time for you two to come!"
"Haha, Mr. Zhou is busy with business. We came here rashly and disturbed you." Liu Jie's typical old fox-like smile appeared on his face again, which made Zhou Nan couldn't help but feel a little wary.
Businessmen in Hong Kong are very shrewd, especially elites like Liu Jie who have been in the business for nearly 20 years. If Zhou Nan was not a reborn person, he might not be able to "play" with him.
Lin Xueer obviously didn't like this kind of hypocritical greetings. After Zhou Nan sat down, she directly stated her purpose, "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhang, who is here with us, does not represent the attitude of the group company. Last night, I
I reported to Director Lan, who immediately ordered Mr. Zhang to fly back to Hong Kong early this morning, and Minister Liu and I will be fully responsible for this cooperation with your company."
"Dr. Lan agrees with the plan proposed by your company. She believes that this can ensure the best interests of both you and us... Therefore, we are willing to have further discussions with your company on this plan to finalize the specific details, and then, as soon as possible,
Sign a formal cooperation agreement and let this project enter the substantive operation stage as soon as possible!"
"Early operation will see early results, which is a good thing for both you and me!" Liu Jie added with a smile, "We also ask Mr. Zhou to invite Mr. Meng on our behalf. We would like to hold a small banquet at noon today.
Apologize to Mr. Meng for yesterday’s misunderstanding!”
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Zhou Nan's mouth.
From being aloof and bossing around at the beginning, to now bowing down and asking for customers to apologize, Lanli Energy's attitude has made a 180° turn. As the saying goes, you can't afford to be early without profit, if you don't see "profit",
Even if John Zhang, the second generation ancestor, had not caused such a commotion, Liu Jie, Lin Xueer and others would definitely not lower their profile like this.
But have you taken all the good things? Zhou Nan sneered in his heart.
When he thought of this, he suddenly smiled and said, "Haha, to be honest with you two, our meeting just now was to discuss the issue of cooperation with you. Your sudden change of heart made us very passive... After the company party committee
After conducting research and discussions, we have initially decided to give up cooperation with you and look for another partner!”
"To be honest, you have gone back on your word, which makes us feel that you have no sincerity in cooperation. The so-called coercion is not sweet, and reluctant cooperation does not make much sense."
Zhou Nan shrugged.
Liu Jie frowned and his eyes flickered.
As a veteran in the shopping mall, he certainly wouldn't believe everything Zhou Nan said, but he was a little surprised that Zhou Nan's attitude had become so tough.
Lin Xueer was taken aback, slowly stood up and said, "If we didn't have the sincerity to cooperate, how could we fly here from Hong Kong? Mr. Zhou, please forgive me, our Lanli Energy Investment has the financial strength and energy equipment manufacturing technology advantages.
It is unique. I think if you give up cooperation with us, it will be difficult for you to find a large group like us..."
"Haha, I admit this. You are the most suitable and capable partner, but -" Zhou Nan said with a smile and changed the subject, "We might as well clarify with you two that our company is currently
We are considering how to restructure the assets of Hai Minyuan, so this project can be put on hold for the time being."
The topic finally came to the most critical and important point.
Liu Jie's eyes lit up and he laughed and said, "Mr. Zhou, in fact, it is precisely because of this matter that our cooperation has broader prospects."
Zhou Nan pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh? Minister Liu, how do you say this?"
"Mr. Zhou, you see, this is it." Liu Jie took out a piece of information from his bag, "We are also paying close attention to the situation of Hai Minyuan. As far as we know, this company is already insolvent...
If your company wants to realize the asset reorganization of Hai Minyuan, in addition to straightening out the relationship in the system and mechanism, it also needs a large amount of capital injection. The so-called asset reorganization process is, to put it bluntly, a process of spending money to launder money.
."
"Judging from the current situation, to complete the asset restructuring of Hai Minyuan, at least more than 100 million yuan will be needed. This is only an upfront investment - if I am not wrong, your company wants to spend such a large sum of money.
It must be very difficult to get some working capital."
"If your company wants to succeed in business, it must obtain a loan from a bank. However, such a heavy operating loan has resulted in huge liabilities, which will sharply increase your company's financial burden..."
Zhou Nan chuckled, "Minister Liu knows the situation very well. Haha, please continue, I'm all ears!"
"Mr. Zhou, I don't think it's better than this - our group company has financial strength and you have resource advantages. How about we cooperate to complete the asset restructuring of Hai Minyuan? Our Lanshi Enterprise has an internal bank, and the internal funds of the group can
Self-financing, and with the strong injection of large capital from our Lanshi Enterprise, this asset restructuring will be very simple."
Zhou Nan laughed secretly in his heart, but said calmly, "What the city means is that this shell resource should stay in Haidu. You are a Hong Kong-funded enterprise. If you want to get involved, I'm afraid the city will not agree."
Liu Jie gave a slight kiss at the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, we can use this cooperation as an opportunity to establish a joint-stock company for you and me to cooperate as soon as possible, and then have a joint-stock company participate in the asset reorganization of Haiminyuan Company?"
! In this way, the joint-stock companies we cooperate with can be listed through asset replacement in a short time, and have broad market prospects..."
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Liu Jie's tone became eager and eager when he persuaded Zhou Nan.
The smile on Zhou Nan's lips became more obvious - the other party had taken the bait and could now reel in the line and pull the net.
"Oh! Minister Liu's suggestion makes sense. However, Minister Liu and Miss Lin, you also know that I can't make the decision on this matter. I need to report to the party committee of the head office and President Meng!"
Liu Jie and Lin Xueer smiled at each other, stood up and said with a smile, "Then, we will wait for Mr. Zhou's good news. At noon, we will have a banquet at Haidu Hotel, and Mr. Meng and Mr. Zhou will also be invited to honor us!"
…
Meng Chunting did not agree to attend the noon banquet. After listening to Zhou Nan's "report", Meng Chunting had to admire Zhou Nan's "foresight". This comet-like talented young man was using his business acumen and intelligence that surpassed the world,
Strive for maximum benefit chips for the company.
Keen judgment, unique vision, ability to adapt to changes, and ease in the negotiation field... These performances and qualities should not be achieved by a freshly graduated college student. However, Zhou Nan did it,
Bringing surprises to Meng Chunting again and again.
He is a genius, a monster-like genius.
Meng Chunting looked at the tall figure of Zhou Nan heading out confidently and sighed secretly.
For the noon banquet, Zhou Nan went with his two assistants, Dong Qiliang and Ma Xiaojing.
Seeing that Meng Chunting did not come, Liu Jie and Lin Xueer were very disappointed. In their opinion, Zhou Nan, an assistant to the general manager, could not make the decision on such an important matter. Does the fact that the top leader Meng Chunting did not show up mean that they denied the decision?
Your own suggestions?
Little did he know that Meng Chunting had given Zhou Nan the greatest authority. She even promised Zhou Nan that if it was too late to ask for instructions, he could make the decision for her.
After three rounds of drinking, when Liu Jie and Lin Xueer got the other's intention to continue cooperation from Zhou Nan, they suddenly became extremely excited. However, Zhou Nan's next words made the two of them feel more excited.
It's half cold.
"Minister Liu and Miss Lin, after you two left in the morning, I immediately reported to Mr. Meng. Mr. Meng immediately convened the company's party committee to conduct research. We decided to tentatively agree to establish a joint-stock company with your company as a joint venture.
While cooperating in the manufacturing of new energy equipment, we are also embarking on the asset restructuring of Haiminyuan Company."
"However, Mr. Meng proposed that in order to ensure the maintenance and appreciation of state-owned assets and in accordance with the policy requirements of the municipal party committee and government, we must hold a controlling stake in the new joint-stock company!"
Liu Jie immediately frowned, his mind flashed, and he began to think about countermeasures.
But Lin Xueer obviously didn't think about it that much. Instead, she looked at Zhou Nandao with dissatisfaction, "Mr. Zhou, you proposed the plan, and we agreed to it. Our group has a relatively controlling share of the plan. How can you overthrow your own plan?"
Where’s the plan?”
Zhou Nan chuckled and said, "One moment and another moment. Our cooperation at first was purely business cooperation, and now it has added the content of asset restructuring of Haiminyuan. Of course, the plan needs to be changed. Moreover, if it is not state-owned
The city will not agree to asset holdings, and this kind of thing will not be allowed by policy!"
"Of course, considering the interests of your company, we can make the biggest concession - in terms of equity setting, we hold 51% and you hold 49%. This ratio is considered good."
Lin Xueer smiled coldly and turned away.
Liu Jie hesitated for a moment, "Mr. Zhou, you are so insincere in this way. In the plan you proposed, we have a relatively controlling share, and you also have an employee stock ownership association to participate in the shares. In fact, it is you who take advantage. But in this way
You are not satisfied yet, you still want to..."
"We have invested such a large amount of capital but cannot hold a controlling stake. I am worried that it will be difficult for the group company's board of directors to approve such an investment intention."
"Haha, it doesn't matter if it doesn't pass. This is just an investment intention. It can be successful or not!" Zhou Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "You can report to Director Lan first and see what Director Lan means!"
…
Lin Xueer went out to make a phone call, and not long after, Lan Ruo's call came to Zhou Nan's eldest brother.
Hearing the voice of his goddess again, Zhou Nan felt happy and excited, but he did not compromise on major matters involving the company's interests. Personal feelings belong to personal feelings, and business matters belong to official matters. He has always made a clear distinction between personal feelings and business affairs.
It is impossible for him to be "slippery" in official matters just because he likes Lan Ruo.
Lan Ruo chatted patiently with Zhou Nan for a long time on the phone. Seeing that he was not accommodating at all, she couldn't help but get a little angry and said, "You are so impersonal. We are also old classmates after all. Even for the sake of old classmates,
Come on, give us some points!"
In front of everyone, Zhou Nan smiled softly and said, "Lan Ruo, would you sell out the interests of Lan's enterprise just because we are college classmates? I think you won't. One code is the same, public and private are separated, this is
My principles of life and work."
"Think about it. On the surface, you suffered a bit of a loss, but in fact, you got more after going public through a backdoor transaction..." Zhou Nan tried his best to soften his voice, "Mr. Meng gave me the biggest
The authority is——"
Zhou Nan paused, "Our final bottom line is that although we have a weak controlling stake, you can occupy two more seats on the board of directors. At the same time, the vice chairman and financial director can be dispatched by you, but the chairman and general manager can be dispatched by you."
, it must be done by our people.”
Lan Ruo pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "Zhou Nan, if I guess correctly, you must be the general manager... Haha, please wait for me for a few minutes, and I will give you an accurate answer in at least half an hour.
!”
Zhou Nan knew that Lan wanted to think about it carefully, so he hung up the phone with a smile.
Seeing Zhou Nan and Lan Ruo talking and laughing, Lin Xueer's charming face suddenly showed a strange color. Lan Ruo was a high-ranking princess in Lan's company, and she was also a high-ranking princess in Hong Kong's upper class society.
The goddess of climbing, but the young man in front of me can bargain with Lan Ruo like this, and it sounds like the attitude is somewhat intimate... Could it be?
Lin Xueer immediately shook her head and smiled bitterly, and immediately gave up the idea, thinking how could this be possible! Although the young man in front of her was good and outstanding enough, compared with Lan Ruo, the gap was still too big.
…
Half an hour later, Lan Ruo called on time, every detail.
"Zhou Nan, I agree. But I have a condition. I hope you can seriously consider it and don't rush to answer me." Lan Ruo's voice was solemn and serious.
Zhou Nan nodded and said in a deep voice, "You say."
"The registered capital of the joint-stock company we jointly established cannot be too large. But after the asset restructuring of Hai Minyuan, we want to inject some of Lanli Energy's excellent assets and industries through asset replacement and increase in share capital.
Company... of course, you can also cooperate in this way to balance the equity ratio." Lan Ruo said in a low voice, "I think, in this way, after the backdoor listing, both of us will benefit!"
Before Zhou Nan could reply, Lan Ruo smiled softly again, "The bigger this company is, the better it is for you as the general manager. You have to think clearly..."
Zhou Nan pondered for a moment, "It's a very important matter, I need to report to the leader, you..."
Before Zhou Nan finished speaking, Lan Ruo laughed softly and said, "You can go and report. I will fly to Haidu right away. Let's meet and talk."
Zhou Nan was surprised and said, "You want to come?"
As if she heard something strange in Zhou Nan's voice, Lan Ruo was silent for a moment before laughing and said, "Why, I'm not welcome to visit Haidu? Haha, for such a big investment matter, of course I, the chairman, have to personally
Let’s make a trip so that you don’t say we are not sincere!”
