Upon hearing the news, Liu Ming felt as if thunder and lightning flashed through his mind.
A P2P company actually ran away?
How is this possible?
When he first heard the news, Liu Ming refused.
Because he himself invests in P2P platforms.
But the overwhelming news on Weibo, countless posts from people claiming to be victims of rogue P2P companies, and photos of the rogue company's scene, all made Liu Ming look pretty from head to toe.
I saw the photos of those holding banners at the scene, and the banners that said "unscrupulous profiteers" and "repay me my hard-earned money" and so on.
Liu Ming hurriedly opened the Weibo accounts of several P2P platforms he invested in to see if they had anything to say.
Sure enough, under the Weibo posts of these platforms, many people were replying to posts asking when they would be able to cash out, and how long it would take before the money on the platform could be withdrawn.
Liu Ming also posted a post to ask, but before he posted, he saw Weibo refreshed. The platform's Weibo directly updated a post from their CEO.
In this post, the CEO admitted that he was aware of the collapse of several foreign platforms. The platforms are currently in a difficult situation and the market environment is harsh.
But he also said that their P2P platform does not have any risks. The current difficulties in cashing out are due to panic among some investors and panic runs.
Therefore, the CEO hopes that investors can stay calm and help tide over the difficulties together!
After seeing this Weibo post, Liu Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, several other P2P platforms he invested in also issued similar announcements.
In the end, the big boss behind these P2P platforms, Guanghui Group, also made an announcement.
The announcement stated that they have investigated the risks of each of their P2P platforms and confirmed that there are no risks on the platform. Investors are asked to remain calm and do not follow others' opinions.
Guanghui Group will also strengthen the management and supervision of these P2P platforms in the future to ensure the safety of investors’ property.
These announcements have completely appeased the hearts of many investors like Liu Ming.
However, what he didn't expect was that a few days later, just when Liu Ming wanted to contact his P2P investment consultant to confirm whether the recent payment could be made, he suddenly found that his consultant's phone number was down!
Liu Ming's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
…
Zhang Yufeng is an investment consultant at Huihuang Financial Management.
This morning, he came to the company as usual.
However, the atmosphere in the company is somewhat depressing.
Zhang Yufeng is not surprised. In the past few days, P2P companies in other places have closed down one after another. The bosses of the companies seem to have turned into runners, one running faster than the other.
Many people have begun to claim that this turmoil may turn into a wave of P2P companies running away.
Therefore, many people in the company began to worry about their own fate, wondering if something like this would happen to their company?
Fortunately, a few days ago, Mr. Yu, CEO of Guanghui Lili, sent an open letter to ease everyone's emotions. Later, the parent company Guanghui Group also spoke out on their behalf, which calmed down everyone's emotions.
There should be nothing wrong with their company, right?
Zhang Yufeng thinks so, after all, unlike those companies that run away, their company has shares in Guanghui Group.
The Guanghui Group has a big business, so how could it watch an accident happen on the platform?
10 a.m. is the company’s fixed regular meeting time.
Zhang Yufeng followed everyone into the conference room and waited for a long time, but the regular meeting did not start.
Because the CEO, Mr. Yu, who originally attended the regular meeting every day, did not show up.
After a while, Mr. Yu's assistant came in and said that Mr. Yu was sick and asked them to drive by themselves.
No one paid attention, but Zhang Yufeng raised his hand and asked, "I'm sorry, where is Manager Gu of the Finance Department?"
Zhang Yufeng's superior glared at him and said, "Xiao Zhang! Why do you ask this?"
"No...leader, I just feel a little strange. Doesn't Manager Gu attend regular meetings every day?"
As soon as Zhang Yufeng finished speaking, someone suddenly said: "Is there something wrong with the company?"
Immediately, a senior executive glared at this person, and then said: "Don't say such things in the future! How could something happen to our company? Guanghui Group just held a risk prevention meeting for us the day before yesterday. There will be no problem!"
Zhang Yufeng's doubts were put to rest.
However, near noon, a piece of gossip began to spread within the company.
Some people say that Mr. Yu and Manager Gu of the Finance Department may have run away. Because someone heard that their leader received a call from Manager Gu, asking if they wanted to run away together?
Not long after the news came out, Zhang Yufeng saw the company's senior executives suddenly convened and held an emergency meeting. Several heads came and went, all very nervous, and their faces were darker than Bao Gong's.
Zhang Yufeng suddenly felt that something might be wrong.
A young colleague's workstation was very close to the conference room, so everyone encouraged him, saying that the atmosphere was not right and that he should go and listen to what was going on in the conference room.
The man was about to go to listen later, but saw the company's human resources director also entering the meeting.
Before they could figure out what was going on, they saw an employee from the human resources department hurried over and told everyone the bad news.
The work phones of all employees of the company have been suspended due to arrears!
"What? What should I do if my client calls me?" Zhang Yufeng asked immediately.
But after he said the words, he realized that now was not the time to ask this question. Instead of caring about this, shouldn't he be more concerned about why their phone was in arrears?
The employees in the human resources department were also confused and said: "I don't know. We just called the telecommunications company after we found out about this, and they said that our money this month was not sent."
"How is it possible? Isn't this money transferred from the finance department every month?" someone asked.
Just when everyone was having different opinions, the senior management meeting ended, and a senior executive came out with a pale face and called all the employees.
"I'm sorry everyone, we just confirmed something. Mr. Yu and Manager Gu from the Finance Department have donated money and escaped! All the money in the company's account has been transferred out. Now we will immediately notify Guanghui Group and call the police. Others can go back first.
Waiting for the news."
"What?"
"what is going on?"
"Why did Mr. Yu run away?"
It was only then that everyone knew that the company's situation had been very bad recently. Although most of the money the company had received from investors was not invested in the stock market like those P2P companies that had run away, but
I lent it to other companies for projects.
But those companies that borrowed money and said they were going to work on projects were actually using the money to speculate in stocks.
Now that the stocks are losing money, these companies will naturally not be able to pay back their money.
If these companies do not repay the money, Huihuang Investment will naturally be unable to pay those investors.
