Chapter 1441 Jinggao is here
"Mr. Jing is here."
Yao Shengming stood in a suite at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel on the Bund in Shanghai, looking at the city lights around 8:30 in the evening, holding a glass of red wine and sighing softly.
The person standing next to him was not his wife, but his favorite woman and lover Jiang Jingxiang. Jiang Jingxiang was 28 years old at the time, 1.66 meters tall, with an oval face, delicate features, a very classical charm, and a cool temperament.
At this time, she was wearing a light apricot suspender skirt with a slightly open neckline. The snow-white valley had a special charm under the bright light. On her charming face, with a bright smile, she gently clinked the glass with Yao Shengming, "Are you relieved now?"
When he learned this morning that Jing Gao was called to watch a movie and was reprimanded and could not come to Shanghai, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Yao Shengming took a sip of red wine and sighed, "Shizuka, you don't understand the importance of Mr. Jing!"
As things developed to this point, the situation between the enemy and us was actually very clear. It was obvious that Zhou Mingyang wanted to use some means to keep Mr. Jing in Beijing and prevent him from coming to Shanghai, so as to buy time to deal with the financial crisis of Mingyuan Group.
However, Mr. Jing is said to have rejected Mr. Yu's negotiation proposal outright, and headed straight for the Magic City regardless of the fact that Phoenix Pictures was being shorted.
In fact, in the eyes of many people outside, Mr. Yu's shorting of Phoenix Film is simply courting death. Do you know the power of Jing Gao in the financial market?
But he knew very well that as long as Mr. Jing quickly mobilized a large amount of funds to enter the A-share market to fight back and eat up Mr. Yu's funds, then Mr. Yu would use his external forces to investigate Mr. Jing and invite him in for tea.
Don't talk about whether it's legal or not. If a top second-generation like Yu Da Shao wants to mess with you, there will be people to "argue" for him. The people under him will definitely be able to ensure that the well inspection is in accordance with procedures and laws and regulations.
Regardless of the losses incurred by Phoenix Film's short selling, Mr. Jing came straight to Shanghai to deal with Zhou Mingyang's affairs first. This shows his great determination and he has grasped the main contradiction, which is really admirable!
According to conventional logic, Mr. Jing could have stayed in Beijing and dispatched his subordinates to Shanghai to take charge of the overall situation and get rid of Zhou Mingyang's funding chain. For example, he could have sent his top man here.
But he was born into a powerful family in Hebei Province. If he came to Modu to suppress Zhou Mingyang, he might not be able to do so.
Now Zhou Mingyang is preparing to sell the well-run gaming company under Mingyuan Group because his ship was delayed in the Suez Canal and needs to pay 7 million US dollars in compensation. The sale is currently being conducted in secret.
The sale of a gaming company with hundreds of millions of assets could not be negotiated within half a month. No one is a fool. But he came to Shanghai to handle this matter. It was not difficult to mess up this business. He had been the president of Changqing Group for so long, he could do it.
But he couldn't expand this "advantage" and destroy Mingyuan Group. He didn't know Mr. Jing's plan yet, and he was also trying to figure out what Mr. Jing would do in the Magic City and where to open a gap.
Or maybe, Mr. Jing was so confident that he even disregarded the stability of the rear and was determined to come to the Magic City to deal with Zhou Mingyang. Could it be that he had some dirty information about Zhou Mingyang that he didn't know about?
Jiang Jingxiang giggled, her cold temperament thawed, her breasts trembled slightly under her light apricot suspender skirt, she turned around and looked at Yao Shengming who looked like a CEO, and said with a smile: "Yes, I don't understand!"
"Haha!" Yao Shengming smiled and shook his head, hugged his beloved woman, and looked at the dazzling night view of the Huangpu River outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
Shizuka really doesn't understand.
If he had not decisively surrendered to Mr. Jing at that time, and turned from an opponent into Mr. Jing's "head horse", helping Mr. Jing to deal with the four powerful local families of Feng, Zhong, Fang and Wei in Shanghai, he would not have been as successful as he is now.
There are various factions in the board of directors of Changqing Group. Even when his father is in charge of handling many matters of Changqing Group, they have to be discussed first.
In theory, it was his elder brother who took over his father's job, not him, the youngest son. Now he personally holds 5% of the shares of Changqing Group, firmly occupies the position of president of Changqing Group, and is responsible for all the affairs of the group.
All this was caused by Mr. Jing!
Moreover, Mr. Jing was very generous. If he could bring down Mingyuan Group this time, he would get the ocean shipping, real estate, and financial businesses under Mingyuan Group. With these three businesses, he could basically control Changqing Group and become the real number one and actual controller of Changqing Group!
Looking forward to what happens next!
If Mr. Jing hadn't asked him to go to the high-speed rail station to pick him up, saying that he wanted to come to the Magic City in a low-key manner, he should actually go to the Hongqiao High-speed Rail Station in the Magic City to wait for the boss' arrival.
...
…Zhou Mingyang was still on the 52nd floor of the Mingyuan Group’s headquarters building in Pudong, where the chairman’s office was located, late at night.
Secretary Shen You was waiting outside the office. He and Mingyuan Group's president Bo Xujie were sitting on the floor in the office having a drink.
"Old Bo, Jing Gao has come to Shanghai." Zhou Mingyang didn't care about his image at all. He took the peanuts in his hand and put them into his mouth. He took a sip of Feitian Moutai and sighed softly while looking at the night view of the Huangpu River outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
This winding Huangpu River carries the dreams and ambitions of so many people in Shenghai Beach, and it is also their home!
Bo Xujie didn't say anything, and there was a depressing atmosphere in the air.
A week ago, when Mr. Zhou mentioned this topic, they could all feel the pressure from Jing Gao. Unexpectedly, after all the hard work, this person still came to the Magic City on Thursday as scheduled, which made people feel terrified and accompanied by some ominous premonition.
This feeling has become increasingly obvious in my heart.
Bo Xujie is 57 years old this year, 10 years older than Zhou Mingyang. But he is not an old servant of Zhou. Instead, he was recruited to Mingyuan Group by Zhou Mingyang more than 20 years ago. At that time, Mingyuan Group was still a small canning company based in Sichuan Province.
Eventually, this small canning company grew step by step into a group with assets of more than 2 billion yuan, involved in real estate, ocean shipping, finance, games, chip design, battery research and development, investment and other businesses.
But such a powerful group and such an outstanding business leader actually felt inexplicably powerless when facing a young man like Jinggao.
The assets of Mingyuan Group are not the trillion-dollar assets of some real estate companies, Internet companies, and financial companies, but real assets that have been squeezed dry. They are among the top private enterprises in Shanghai, and Mr. Zhou is also a guest of honor of the city leaders. Isn't this powerful enough?
However, due to the bad relationship with Jinggao, the Phoenix Group was constantly squeezed by all its subsidiaries. All its businesses were shrinking and its capital chain was stretched very tight. This time, the ocean shipping business was suddenly at risk and it needed to pay the international insurance company 7 million US dollars in lost time fees, which was only 4-5 million yuan in total. As a result, the group was in a tight spot.
How could he, the executive director and president in charge of the daily operations of Mingyuan Group, feel embarrassed?
On the one hand, the crisis came too quickly and too suddenly. Who would have thought that the Suez Canal would be suddenly interrupted for nearly ten days because of a stranded cargo ship? On the other hand, Mr. Zhou's handling of the matter was indeed a bit hesitant, and he should have sold the gaming business earlier.
The capital chain is tight and we cannot come up with so much cash for the time being, so we have to sell high-quality assets quickly!
Of course, he was being too demanding. No matter how outstanding an entrepreneur is, he would not immediately decide to sell the group's high-quality assets after encountering a financial crisis. Who would be willing to sell the hen that laid the golden eggs? You have to weigh the pros and cons. It's only been less than a month, right?
Generally speaking, for such a large enterprise, the decision cycle is about two to three months. And Mr. Zhou has already tried his best to raise funds, and decided to sell the game business a week ago, but it was not going smoothly.
Zhou Mingyang and his deputy drank another glass of Maotai. The glass was one or two liang, savoring the taste of the wine. "Lao Bo, I have to rely on you to maintain the group's situation during this period. I want to work harder. It would be best if we can survive this crisis. If not..."
This is not the feudal era. If he cannot overcome the crisis, can he still ask Old Bo to continue to be loyal to the Zhou family?
Haven’t you seen that Ren Erge’s assistant Song Fa and group CEO Watson have both gone to work at Jinggao’s Phoenix Group?
Bo Xujie's voice was a little dry, perhaps because the liquor was a little spicy, "Boss Zhou, just go ahead and do it. As long as I'm here, Mingyuan Group will remain stable.
However, Mr. Zhou, should we sell our gaming business to Alibaba or Tencent at a 50% discount to get through this crisis? NetEase is unreliable, but they won’t hold back our payments, right?”
The details of the sale of the gaming business were not handled by him, but by the CEO of the gaming business, but he knew the progress. Mingyuan Group wanted to sell its gaming business, and the market would definitely lower the price. But no matter how much it lowered the price, it couldn't be reduced to 3% off, right?
It is said that NetEase's boss Ding Sanshi and Jing Gao have a good personal relationship, and they can eat and drink together. So there should be no problem between Alibaba and Tencent. Although Tencent is now repairing its relationship with Phoenix Group and cooperating in filming together, Pony Ma and CEO Zhou are not strangers, so they will not deliberately delay the payment.
Zhou Mingyang said softly: "I'm already doing it. I didn't expect him to come so soon."
Bo Xujie sighed, "Alas." Everything, the problem was that the "ally" from the capital, Young Master Yu, failed to hold Jing Gao back, and sent Jing Gao to the Magic City too quickly, leaving them with no time to react.
Jing Gao once sent someone to contact him, offering him $1 million to betray President Zhou. There was no need to talk about this matter at this moment. He would definitely do his job well and would not let President Zhou down.
