Chapter 1370 Negotiating Countermeasures
In Zhou's villa, following Zhou Mingyang's statement, the faces of Peng Jinghua, Zhou Shiqing, and Zhou Changle all turned ugly, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing for a while.
At this time, the alarm clock on Zhou Mingyang's beautiful secretary Shen You's mobile phone suddenly rang, breaking the dead silence in the large living room on the first floor of the luxurious and bright villa.
Wearing a white shirt and a black bag skirt, Shen You stood up with a tablet computer and reported emphatically: "Boss, you have to go back to the company. We have a small meeting with Mr. Bo and the other three presidents at the headquarters building."
The number two figure in Mingyuan Group is Bo Xujie, who serves as the executive director and president of Mingyuan Group. In addition, the two vice presidents of Mingyuan Group who are responsible for finance and financing are the boss's confidants. Such a big matter also needs to be ventilated and negotiated together.
"Let's go." Zhou Mingyang nodded to his wife and sister, stood up with his cell phone, and walked out with his secretary.
Peng Jinghua ordered: "Changle, follow your father and take good care of him."
"I can, Mom." Zhou Changle grabbed his coat and quickly caught up.
He also didn't expect that he would have to face such turbulent waves less than a year after returning to China. Fortunately, his father resisted, so that although he felt a little confused at this time, he would not be in chaos.
Listening to the distant sound of a car starting outside the villa gate, Peng Jinghua sat on the sofa, drank the champagne in the glass, stayed for a long time, and said bitterly: "I heard that the man in the capital likes to keep his enemies. Wife and daughter, should I consider getting a cosmetic surgery? At least I need to protect Xiao Yuer.”
As a native of Shengtan, she has lived in this international metropolis for many years and has seen too many ups and downs. When the stock market was experiencing great ups and downs, it was not as if no one jumped from tall buildings. Many families of good friends suddenly fell into decline due to the disappearance of their power. Some fled overseas, and some came to serve as iron rice bowls.
Her husband Zhou Mingyang has done such a big career, but he has to accept the price of not being able to live a stable life like ordinary people.
The world of business is not as cunning as the world of officialdom, but with the entanglement of interests, how can one be allowed to escape unscathed and become a commoner?
Zhou Shiqing paused for a moment, with a sad look on her face, and held her sister-in-law's hand comfortingly, "Sister-in-law..." Looking at the cute and lively little Yu'er calling them on the second floor, she made up her mind.
She was picked up by her second brother from a poor county in central Sichuan. Because the second brother was young at the time, it was impossible to go through the adoption procedures, so she was named in her parents' names. After so many years of good food and clothing, it was her turn to repay this kindness.
...
...
Zhou Mingyang and Shen You quickly arrived at the Mingyuan Group headquarters building in Pudong. After walking into the elevator, Zhou Mingyang looked at the delicate and bright female secretary beside him. She was dressed in black and white for the workplace, with first-class appearance, excellent figure, and a faint fragrance. It made people feel happy, and he said guiltily: "Xiao Shen, these years..., I'm sorry..."
Shen You smiled coquettishly and said, "Boss, what are you saying I'm sorry for? Next time you find a quiet place for vacation so you can show off your talents and ask me to enjoy it for a few days."
Zhou Mingyang smiled reluctantly. This smart girl should know that he was not talking about the relationship between the two. He failed to raise the flag to bring her happiness in the garage last night. I’ve been under too much pressure lately!
He is already 47 years old, and it has long been normal for him to be unable to do what he wants. Even that precious night that turned her into a woman three years ago took a lot of effort to break her open.
What he was talking about was that Xiao Shen might be implicated by him next. From being the secretary and assistant to the chairman of a multi-billion dollar company to an ordinary person working in the city, not everyone can bear this gap. And Xiao Shen was comforting him and encouraging him.
Why enjoy it? If you can give her a fulfilling experience for three minutes, you are considered to be in good condition. Physical decline is a natural law, not to mention that he comes from a wealthy family, is handsome and talented, and was romantically involved when he was young. He loved mature women and 18-year-old girls. Too much physical wear and tear will make up for the shortfall. It’s not okay to not accept old age now.
Zhou Mingyang nodded gently to his charming female secretary, said nothing, and immediately reached the 52nd floor where the chairman's office was located.
The Mingyuan Group Headquarters Building in Pudong has a total of 58 floors and is hundreds of meters high. It is also regarded as one of the landmark buildings along the Huangpu River. The entire 52nd floor is reserved for Zhou Mingyang alone, with office areas, conference areas, rest areas, etc.
After Shen You arrived on the 52nd floor, she skillfully placed her handbag on the office table outside. She worked here every day. She followed Zhou Mingyang to the chairman's office. She first made him a cup of tea, and then called outside to inform him. Bo Xujie, the executive director and president of Mingyuan Group, and the two vice presidents Zhou and Jiang, who were responsible for finance and financing respectively, came over quickly and sat down in Zhou Mingyang's office.
Zhou Mingyang took advantage of the opportunity of his mother-in-law's birthday today to make a report about the contact with his financial friends in Shengtan Beach. Borrowing money was definitely not done in a big way, and there were no secrets here in Shengtan Beach. Asked: "Lao Zhou, how is the situation of the group now?"
Vice President Zhou Mingyang, who is in charge of finance in his hometown in Sichuan Province, said: "The group's finances can still be sustained for a while. But it is best to have new funds come in at the end of this month. We have a US dollar bond due at the end of the month ”
"What about financing?" Zhou Mingyang looked at another confidant, a subordinate who had been with him for many years. He also served as a leader within the system back then.
Vice President Jiang shook his head silently.
A 100-billion-dollar group requires more than just professional financial personnel to sort it out. Someone is also needed to be responsible for financing and finding money in domestic and foreign markets. This is the role he plays in Mingyuan Group.
Since the conflict with Phoenix Group, Mingyuan Group has implemented a comprehensive contraction strategy. All kinds of financing are very cautious, but the ship is in trouble and the capital chain is a bit tight. Now there is a problem with the shipping business and compensation needs to be paid.
The capital chain is close to drying up.
Bo Xujie suggested: "Mr. Zhou, we can sell some businesses if we should, even if it's cheaper." Mingyuan Group's difficulties are temporary. Shipping was suddenly delayed, requiring compensation of approximately US$7 million. But this is just an emergency, just get through this period of time.
The question is how to spend it?
These days, you should be fine and have a lot of friends. If you want to borrow money, you have to talk carefully. More than 4 million yuan is not so easy to borrow.
And with Mingyuan Group's current tight capital chain, it suddenly has to spend about 7 million US dollars, which is extremely stressful!
Mingyuan Group has high-quality assets in its hands, but suddenly it cannot afford so much money and needs to move around.
Funds obtained through mortgages, guarantees, and financing are somewhat risky. Mingyuan Group has now used various methods such as real estate, equity mortgages, and bond issuance, and the cost of obtaining funds is very high. You can't drink poison to quench your thirst.
Sellers hurry now to raise funds to tide over the difficulties.
Zhou Mingyang nodded, "Sell the game business, Lao Jiang, you will be responsible."
Mingyuan Group has many businesses, but there are only a few core businesses. Among them, the game business is the mainstay and cash cow business. But now Mingyuan Group is encountering difficulties, and the outside world vaguely knows that if it wants to sell assets in Shengtan Beach, it can only buy high-quality assets.
"it is good."
The atmosphere in the conference room immediately relaxed. Zhou Mingyang dismissed the meeting, left Bo Xujie behind, and asked his secretary Shen You to bring a bottle of red wine. He looked at the night outside the floor-to-ceiling window and said solemnly: "
Lao Bo, it’s no shame to just sell the game business. You can buy it back later when you have money. I'm afraid that Jing Gao from the capital might smell it and come over to cause trouble. I asked my friend in Beijing and found out that his private jet had already scheduled an itinerary in advance and he would come to Shanghai next Thursday. "
"." Bo Xujie felt an invisible pressure rushing towards him.
