"Ten years ago, I would have just dug a hole and buried him and put an end to it. Why would I bother wasting time talking to him?"
The belt guy pulled his tie hard, no longer looking as gentle as before, and couldn't help shouting in the elevator, "If you don't give me face, I'll arrange for him to have a good time later."
Fake Medicine Stop was speechless, "If the business fails, it won't result in anyone's death. Besides, he didn't refuse, he just had doubts.
Take your time, we are not in a hurry, there is plenty of time to play with him.
Even if I didn’t get shares in Qingyun Holdings and Qingyun Investment this time, there will always be next time.
Besides, do you think these are the only resources we can mobilize?"
The conditions he proposed were favorable no matter where you put them. Not only did he offer policies, he also offered money, with a starting amount of 5 million yuan in funding.
The two parties jointly set up an Internet gambling company, Fake Medicine Stop, and Belt Brother jointly invested, while Qingyun injected resources, including website customer publicity and traffic, technical support, and daily operations.
With each holding 50% of the shares, Li Zehua can be the chairman of the board, but they have to appoint someone to the position of managing director, which was originally intended for Fang Guohui.
However, before they arrived, Fang Guohui failed to block the three axes and fell to his knees, causing the plan to deviate. It was a good idea to stop making fake drugs, but the specific matters had to be taken care of by himself.
Whether it is to cheat a big vote and share the profits internally, or to leave a big hidden danger in the future and drag Qingyun into it, he must take charge of the specific matters himself.
There is no need to worry about the Qingyun Group discovering his flaws midway. By then, Li Zehua will have no choice but to continue, because he is the legal representative, actual controller and chairman.
No matter what immoral and shameless things the people below him did behind his back, in the end all the blame would be put on Qingyun, and he was not afraid that he would want to jump out of the car or resist.
Because the people standing behind him have already come forward to coordinate a unified position. In the face of huge interests, even if someone wants to overestimate his own capabilities, he is doomed to fail.
Throwing dirty water on him and stigmatizing him is only the first move. The goal is to work hard on other businesses, continuously consume the strength of the Qingyun Group, force him to return to the negotiating table, and keep cutting losses to survive.
However, the plan is beautiful, but the reality is ironic.
Unable to resist the temptation from Li who came back from the afterlife and knew their background very well, they forced themselves to resist and at the last minute expressed their consideration.
"Pah, it's really a bargain for him."
After leaving the building, Brother Belt looked back angrily. In fact, he was more anxious than anyone else because Hengtai’s financial situation was far from as healthy as the outside world imagined.
This time, the supervisor behind the scenes asked him to work together with Lay's, perhaps with the intention of taking the opportunity to swallow up the Qingyun Group in one swoop. With so many high-quality assets, they could just split them up and use them as collateral for financing.
It only takes a few minutes to get tens of billions of risk-free funds through public offerings. Depending on the situation in the future, you can go public to cash out, merge operations, and exchange resources.
But Li Zehua was so cunning that he just wouldn't be fooled...
"Why, you're curious? Don't keep it to yourself. You should follow me to learn more, see more, and ask more questions. Otherwise, how can you make progress?"
After everyone left, Fang Guohui also found an excuse to slip away, leaving Wang Fei alone, looking like he was constipated, with a strange look as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
After getting permission, Wang Fei said, "Chairman, I don't understand. Internet gambling business resources are extremely scarce. The first license holder who enters the market first is destined to get a mountain of gold at his fingertips.
Even if they have ulterior motives, control remains firmly in the hands of the company.
I guess they can't come up with any other tricks in their business operations, so why not just agree to it?
Although Mr. Fang has selfish motives and wants to take advantage of the opportunity to seek personal gain, but according to his plan, if he implements it seriously, a net profit of tens of billions every year will be no problem.
This will greatly ease the company's current tight capital chain situation."
"Originally, that's what I was planning. There are risks in everything we do. As long as we control the degree, we may be able to open up a new business route. But it's too hasty to stop the counterfeiting of fake drugs."
Li Zehua patiently explained, "He shouldn't have revealed his cards too early. He wanted the shares of Tsing Yun Holdings. Even Temasek's current demands of one for four or one for five, I gritted my teeth and refused to agree.
Why does he want to send people to participate in the actual operation? He has a good calculation. "
Wang Fei still looked puzzled.
Then he said in a deep voice: "How do you think the group is developing now?"
Wang Fei smiled and said, "Under your wise leadership, the group's businesses are developing rapidly."
"Stop, tell the truth."
Li Zehua glared at him angrily, "Who do you think I am? Can I only listen to nice words and whitewash the situation?
The group's various businesses have expanded to the extreme, and behind the diversification are a large number of enemies with bad intentions on every front.
The amount of funds continues to be tight, so we have to use the franchise management fees of Qingyun Yijiale to fill the gap. "
Speaking of this, he felt a headache. "I didn't expect that the investment of agricultural companies would be a bottomless pit. The most critical thing is the financial market, including banks, to provide financial support for land contracting and transfer.
Alas, it can only be said that it is disappointing. Tens of millions of dollars were invested in a project, and when it was taken out separately for package financing, not even one-tenth of the loan could be obtained.
The key is that the payback period is extremely long. I sent General Manager Yang to the Northeast. Even with the support of Yida’s local connections, the application for special agricultural subsidies was not very smooth.
The promotion of grain-fed beef cattle breeding in the six provinces of Shandong, Henan, Anhui, Jiangxi, Hubei and Shaanxi has been delayed due to the problem of the allocation of imported soybeans and corn. "
Wang Fei usually deals with this information and has a deep memory of many key data. He couldn't help but say, "Chairman, Fengyi International is here to provide assistance.
Perhaps things will improve significantly in the future. After all, it has several edible oil brands under its umbrella. Can't the bean dregs and peanut residues left over from oil extraction be used as feed?"
“That’s the problem. I allowed Fengyi International to hold a 20% stake in Qingyun Agriculture because I wanted to obtain a stable source of grain through the sales channels of the four major international grain traders behind it.
As long as the group can gain a buffer period of two to three years, the difficulties faced by the group can be alleviated through planting with farmers in various places and contracted overseas land, and even impact their market in turn.
Including overseas, I sent people to Samba, Chile, and even in Africa to lease and purchase land to grow soybeans and corn.
If all goes well, it will be like having two pillars, supporting Qingyun Agricultural Service Company to continue to move forward and gradually establish an internal circulation economic system.
We produce and sell our own corn, soybeans, peanuts and other grain crops. In the early stage, we strive to become a supplier of edible oil brands under Fengyi International, and take the opportunity to gradually build our own grain and oil empire.
The remaining residues from production are sold to farmers who have signed contracts with the group for entrusted breeding through cooperation with feed manufacturers, thus realizing a closed production loop and making use of feed profits.
Multiple measures, such as calf trading at the source of investment, livestock pharmaceutical companies to prevent diseases and pests, and insurance business, have reduced the group's investment and operating costs in the livestock industry.
A production and operation network will be established across the country, covering over 500 million households, with a beef cattle inventory of over 5000 million heads and over 3000 million high-quality domestic pigs.
Completely gain pricing power over these two industries.”
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but frowned, "Fengyi International is quite cooperative. After all, by acquiring shares, it has gained initial influence and control.
If Qingyun Agriculture continues to develop according to normal business logic, it will sooner or later need to go through multiple rounds of financing. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be able to occupy more market share through advantageous channels and raw material supply.
This is also courting disaster, but the group already has a response plan, it just lacks a suitable opportunity. Controlling and influencing public opinion is the core of the plan.
As long as WeChat Technology and Douyin Interactive Entertainment can develop smoothly and gain a certain influence, they will be able to overthrow them in one fell swoop and gain complete control.”
Li Zehua had already thought about this. The safety of edible oil always comes first. As long as consumers see the storage and transportation links of the entire industrial chain, they will definitely vote with their feet.
After Fengyi International acquired a stake in Qingyun Agriculture, it has been trying to start financing negotiations with Fengniao Group and Yunyunbang, hoping to get these two companies involved in the transportation process to further reduce costs.
But Li Zehua would not agree. At least the group currently has no arrangements for any plan to intervene in the special vehicle transportation industry in order to prevent being dragged into it.
Not only that, from the moment he started cooperating with Fengyi International, he had already sent people to secretly form a team to conduct in-depth tracking and investigation, focusing on the grain and oil companies under Fengyi International.
Tracking and filming to collect evidence, one car might be able to make excuse of negligence, but what if a whole car keeps delivering goods for several years?
Can this be called management negligence?
Okay, even if it can be confused, then please explain what is going on with these hundreds and thousands of vehicles that have been supplying the company for a long time?
To be more shocking, mixed packaging is not a big deal. What is hidden under the fig leaf of capital's pursuit of maximum profits are all kinds of operations that are disgusting to the eyes and break the bottom line of humanity.
In pursuit of profit, they are willing to sell even their souls, let alone other things.
Qingyun Group can take advantage of the changing situation to throw out all the evidence, create a storm of public opinion, and deal a fatal blow. There is no need to say more about the past life, but in this life, with Qingyun's early intervention, it can be seamlessly connected, and even enter the market in advance to support the bottom.
The local government's concerns about maintaining tax scale, employment, etc. will no longer be an obstacle as long as Qingyun can bring them greater benefits.
This is the entire strategy targeting Fengyi International. By the way, it can also eliminate a large number of companies in the special transportation industry, allowing Fengniao and Yunyunbang to take the opportunity to enter the market and seize market share.
Unfortunately, the plan was good, but some deviations occurred during the implementation process, such as the investment scale was too large, the payback period was too long, the risks were uncontrollable, and the financial market was not optimistic.
Li Zehua was exhausted by all the difficulties. "I didn't expect that this plan would be restricted by the agricultural authorities and Sinograin, and the specific subsidies could not be negotiated for a while.
In the early stage, all the funds that Qingyun Agriculture borrowed from various companies were invested into this bottomless pit, but it was still not enough. The financial market did not cooperate and there was no source of follow-up funds.
Faced with this unfavorable situation, I could only use the Qingyun Yijiale Supermarket card, first building life supermarkets on a large scale, and then expanding convenience stores.
On the one hand, there is the franchise management fee of 6 yuan. Don't underestimate the supermarket item. If you do it well, it would not be too much to have tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of stores in the future.
Together with the purchase money for their first batch of goods to fill the shelves, it is another huge sum of money that can greatly alleviate the financial pressure on the agricultural company.
On the other hand, it is to find suitable sales channels for the food processing factory invested by Qingyun Agriculture.”
Wang Fei opened his mouth wide, and exclaimed in shock: "Chairman, you are really bold. You are always thinking ahead. No wonder you have achieved what you have today."
"Where is this?"
Li Zehua shook his head. "Agricultural planting and breeding contribute the most to the growth of logistics. Why can Yunyunbang and Fengniao be so successful in the logistics industry?
Isn't it because the group has a lot of transportation resources? This is called complementary advantages, which has helped to create a gap between us and our competitors since the beginning.
They are not competing on the same level, so no matter how much money they invest, they cannot gain an advantage in the industry.”
But everything has its pros and cons. Advantages do not come out of thin air. They are the result of the group's early investment and layout in other industries, and the hard work that goes into building them bit by bit.
This will inevitably lead to the group having to open up more fronts and invest more funds to maintain this advantage, even if Qingyun Agriculture continues to suffer losses and overall profitability is nowhere in sight.
The fundamental reason why he had to grit his teeth and keep going was that if he had no money, he would try every possible way to get money to fill the hole.
He saw it, and others also vaguely guessed it. After all, no one is a fool. It seems that this business will become the focus of competition among all parties in the future.
Wang Fei understood a little, "No wonder you want to transfer Director Fang away from the supermarket business."
"Transfer?"
He sneered, "It's too cheap for him."
Then he called Zhang Tao in from outside and asked, "I asked you to send someone to keep an eye on him. How's it going?"
"As you expected, I went to meet with the two of you privately."
Zhang Tao hated people who stabbed him in the back the most in his life. After he finished speaking, he subconsciously showed a vicious look, "Sir, do you want to get rid of him secretly?"
“No, Xiao Wang, call the Compliance Department back in Shanghai and ask Mr. Liu Zijie to collect all the evidence of suspected violations when Fang Guohui was in charge of financial business.
Then wait for my notification."
Wang Fei responded with a "yes", and said eagerly: "Should we consider directly convening a board meeting to remove him, and then hand him over to the judicial authorities for handling?"
"No, that would be too easy for him. Besides, the current environment does not allow this."
Li Zehua paced back and forth, hitting his forehead with his fist, and after a while he continued:
"Let Mr. Liu find a way to leak the news that Fang Guohui was suspected of making a second mortgage on the reserved account of Pinxixi e-commerce."
This matter has always been a thorn in his side, and it was also the biggest reason for dealing with Fang Guohui this time.
The cause of the incident was still related to a loophole left when cooperating with the home appliance company at that time.
The 30-60 day advance payment cycle has greatly reduced the financial pressure on Pinxixi's e-commerce. Thanks to the sales of thousands of Pinxixi front-end experience stores across the country, the daily operating income is an astronomical figure.
In theory, Pinxixi can use this money internally unlimitedly as long as the account balance is sufficient to pay before the deadline of the payment cycle.
Correspondingly, Qingyun Group will issue acceptance bills to manufacturers and unconditionally transfer funds from the account upon maturity. Banks are happy to do so as they can earn an extra low-risk commission.
Home appliance companies have no objection either. If their capital chain is tight, they will look for investors in the market to cash out at a discount and get the cash in advance after deducting a certain percentage.
Pinduoduo's good cash flow and continuously growing revenue scale make the bill discount fee it issues extremely low, usually 1-2 points, far lower than the market practice of 3-6 points.
Under normal circumstances, there is not much room for maneuver, but the people behind Fang Guohui are too greedy and want to take all the profits that can be squeezed out.
They not only took advantage of Fang Guohui's status as a director, but also used the shares of other companies held on his behalf to frequently interfere in the group's specific businesses.
For example, when the local life service company Pinxixi acquired a group buying website company, Fang Guohui personally came forward to make arrangements for the acquisition of the fake data website created by the person behind him.
Sales volume, market share, growth curve, and operating cash flow are all faked, just to sell at a high price when doing business with the group.
Normal people who do this usually have a backup plan, such as continuing to arrange fake orders within six months after the acquisition, but the frequency is not so high and gradually decreases.
In this case, the group would only think that there were problems with the business direction after the acquisition, but these people were too greedy. After receiving the acquisition money, they directly cut off the monthly sales of tens of millions.
The price plummeted to hundreds of thousands after the acquisition. Even a fool could see the trick.
Among them, not only Fang Guohui was involved, but other investors were also more or less involved, but they were not as arrogant as him.
Liu Zijie has mentioned several times that he wanted to deal with the matter, but due to the face of a number of investment institutions such as Magic Investment and Tomorrow, Li Zehua chose to remain silent for the time being and only gave a disguised warning.
Unexpectedly, Fang Guohui not only did not restrain himself, but also used his connections to lobby home appliance companies in the south, eyeing the profits from acceptance bills.
No one knows who is coordinating the whole thing, but many second- and third-tier manufacturers have joined in and jointly set up a sales agency, and continued to cooperate with Qingyun under the name of this company.
For manufacturers, it is profitable to have a sales agency separate the production and sales links. For example, the sales company can get preferential tax rebate policies and make extra money out of thin air.
It doesn't matter if the tax refund policy cannot be obtained. This company can be used to effectively reduce the factory's profits and avoid dividends that should have been distributed to other shareholders. With the people behind Fang Guohui stepping forward, no one dares to resist.
As the number of companies increases, the amount of acceptance bills to be issued each month becomes larger. When these bills are transferred to this company, its operating cash flow and valuation are indirectly raised.
These can all be taken to the bank as collateral for secondary lending, and the discount fee for the acceptance bill is its profit. Although it is a bit low, it is stable, large and sustainable.
Combined with the reasonable profits and tax rebates obtained from agent sales, they are transformed into company profits through accounting transfer.
It is no wonder that bank executives jokingly said that the account opened by this company is Pinxixi’s reserve account.
Over the past six months, Fang Guohui has accumulated hundreds of millions of loans and bonds through this company, all of which were used by people behind him to invest and manipulate the financial market to make money.
After Liu Zijie found out about this, Li Zehua wanted to send him to jail, but then he thought, wouldn't that be too easy for him?
This guy used the company's name to seek personal gain. Nothing went wrong. It was just that the company's resources backed him up, and all the profits went into his pocket and the pockets of those behind him.
If they suffer a loss, those second- and third-tier suppliers will probably jump off buildings collectively, because the main body supplying goods to Pinduoxi is the sales agency, and the transaction is considered completed once Pinduoxi pays the money.
Who can bear this?
Li Zehua snorted coldly, "These fools are greedy for a little tax refund and acceptance fee, but they don't know that they are making wedding clothes for others.
Fang Guohui was so bold that he even dared to go to Lin Wenhui to inquire about the details of the company's investment in gold in Lijiaopo.
I think he is tired of living. OK, isn’t it just the short position of gold? I will package it and send it to you. Let’s see if you dare to follow me! ”(End of this chapter)
