Chapter 478, Cotton Victims’ Counterattack

"Stop, do you think that if you want a child, you can just reach out and take it just because whose child is cute?

Do you understand that it is illegal?

I advise you not to overestimate your own strength~"

The room is a battlefield, what a mess!

Relying on the skills he had accumulated from twenty-one years of hard work as a single man, Li Zehua finally won the singles match and put his competitor into a temporary coma.

A reserve of strange postures, successfully unlocked a few moves, not to mention, except for a little bit of waist strain, everything else is good~
It was another refreshing day. When they woke up in the morning, for the first time ever, they were not awakened by their biological clocks. After all, playing poker all night took up a lot of their energy.

He even forgot about the agreement on the location of the local government office in Chengdu.

"Are you all here? Oh, I forgot to turn off the fire when I was making soup this morning, and it burned so badly that now all the soup is gone. Are you guys coming over?

No, no, I'll pack up and come in a moment, you accompany the leaders to look first, anyway, we are choosing a site for your factory, the Chaoxu factory is right next door, you can start construction as soon as you find a suitable site."

The urgent ringing of the phone woke Li Zehua from his sleep. He saw that it was already half past eight. He hung up the phone and couldn't help yawning. He glanced at Fu Yujie who was holding his left hand tightly beside him.

I couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh, "Well, I only sleep for three hours. It's such a hard life!"

He slowly pulled his hand out without waking her up from her sleep. When he got dressed and went downstairs, Wang Fei was already waiting in the lobby of the villa.

"Pick out something unimportant from today's schedule, prepare the car and breakfast, and eat in the car."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Wang Fei immediately arranged for people to prepare.

The villa is not big, and usually only a special housekeeper is arranged to be responsible for cleaning and maintenance. He owns so many houses like this that it is almost impossible to count them all. As long as he can buy them with money, he will pick them all.

On the way, he ate breakfast and reminded Wang Fei, "When President Wang comes this time, you should follow him and learn how to manage a new energy vehicle company and respect a senior who has achieved success in the industry.

I don’t need to teach you how to do it.”

"Okay, I will get familiar with BYD in the shortest possible time."

Wang Fei was reluctant to leave his side because the boss only had one senior administrative assistant, but there were more than 20 presidents of subsidiaries at the next level, and it was hard to say which one was more important.

However, the group has been established for less than two years, and most of the new generation that can be used are still in the middle-level stage. There is not even a director level corresponding to M5, let alone the president level of M8 first-level company.

Perhaps in another two or three years, there will be many top students from prestigious universities trained internally, and by then the group’s middle and senior management positions will also usher in a new round of internal blood transfusion.

Guo Xinyi and Wang Fei both came at the right time. They were discovered from the position of senior administrative assistants and directly promoted to presidents of large companies. After a few more years, they had their academic qualifications, background and connections.

If you don't have incredible luck to join the company, even if you work hard for twenty years, you won't be able to achieve success overnight.

"Forget about the words of thanks. I've been receiving flattery everywhere I go lately. If it continues like this, I'm going to wonder if I'll never hear any other words in my life."

Li Zehua waved his hand, looked at the daily newspaper information, and took out his mobile phone to check several major portals to learn about the latest news of the day.

If you see something that interests you or that fits your rebirth memories, mark it down.

"I don't know which lucky person will take over my position in the future?"

Wang Fei opened his mouth but said nothing. He didn't dare to violate the taboo of employing his own people. Besides, even if he said it, it would not pass the approval of the CEO.

Yu Li doesn't care who he is. If she offends that old lady, not only Li Zehua himself will be punished, but everyone else will be in trouble.

Don’t you see that other companies have a few eye-catching secretaries in their offices? Not only do they serve tea and water and ask about your well-being, but they also do a good job of nourishing your eyes and cultivating your sentiments.

But when it comes to Li Zehua, several women had finally joined the chairman's office, but they were all transferred away under various pretexts, leaving only a bunch of rough men who are scary to look at.

Li Zehua didn't care about these things. He didn't care who stayed in this position, as long as they had no ulterior motives and no special purpose...

“With your sufficient financial support, the progress of improving the range-extending technology is smoother than originally planned, and the engine is more inclined to generate electricity rather than provide driving force.

The technological exploration results of motors becoming the main driving force are exciting, but there are still some shortcomings in materials and power output conversion..."

Wang Chuanfu was not very interested in the site selection of the electronics factory. He came to Chengdu mainly to meet with Li Zehua and discuss the difficulties faced by new energy vehicles.

“This is not difficult to solve. Foreign hybrid vehicle technology developed earlier. From the end of the last century to today, there are certain technical reserves, but it is constrained by market prospects and the overall environment.

After comprehensive consideration, we did not choose it as the core breakthrough point. Now is the right time to promote the carbon neutrality policy and there is a real and urgent need. I believe that my peers will pay attention to it.

For example, Daimler and Toyota have successively invested in Tesla, hoping that the latter will make breakthroughs in the field of new energy electric vehicles and thus establish a sufficiently strong technical patent barrier.

Due to some special reasons, when I invested in Tesla, Daimler Group withdrew its investment from Tesla. I could take this opportunity to proactively approach them and seek cooperation. "

Li Zehua thought for a while and then came up with a solution. "I will mediate on the Tesla side. It won't be a big problem. It can be a three-party deal between Qingyun Power Technology, BYD Group and Tesla.

Jointly establish a technical alliance, work together on key technology research and development, and authorize each other.

As for the materials, drive, energy consumption output power patents, and engine patents in the hands of German car companies, they can slowly develop by purchasing the previous generation of obsolete technology.”

The situation in China is different from that in other countries. The transfer of many core key technologies is very troublesome. After all, in the global economic cooperation and division of labor, Tokyo is defined by the West as the world's foundry.

They are not allowed to develop high-tech, and the sensitive automobile industry is under strict guard to prevent any possibility of technology leakage.

Wang Chuanfu knew this very well and was envious of the resources Li Zehua had. "Thank you, Mr. Li, for your help."

The reason why he accepted Qingyun to replace Buffett's fund and become the largest shareholder of BYD Group was because he was attracted by Qingyun's connections in the United States, especially its investment in Tesla.

It can be called a stroke of genius.

Just as Li Zehua said, Tesla initially stood on the shoulders of the world's top automakers and used relatively mature technology to develop new energy vehicles.

Don't underestimate the technological background of those century-old foreign car companies. Whether it is hybrid or electric, lithium battery or other batteries, fuel or gas, these companies have technical reserves.

Tesla's madness lies in its indomitable momentum. When fuel-powered cars were at their peak, it insisted on going down the pure electric road and forged a smooth path to success.

Under such circumstances, Qingyun still obtained Tesla shares, which shows the strong network of relationships behind it in the United States.

"Family members don't talk behind each other's backs."

Li Zehua smiled and said: "Technically, I am a complete layman, and I just have a little face and some dirty money.

Mr. Wang, please rest assured that I have already started to arrange the establishment of a new energy industry fund, which will specifically invest funds to acquire the technology licenses and industry-related companies required for development.

Whether it is domestic peers or large foreign companies, as long as they are willing to sell, even if they suffer a slight loss in price, it does not matter, just as a payment for the lessons learned in these years of development. "

The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention seeking cooperation with several major domestic car companies. It was not worth it, and they also deeply despised it from the bottom of their hearts...

"Fuck Qingyun."

When Li Zehua, Wang Chuanfu and others were inspecting the site selection for the electronic OEM business and the future strategic layout of electric new energy vehicles in Chengdu.

In Shanghai, Mr. Xiao Lu, the actual controller behind Dingguo Insurance, smashed a vase to the ground.

"Okay, okay, there's no share for me in the Minsheng Department, right? You want to eat all by yourself, right? You don't let me get involved in any of the insurance, securities, and financial auctions, and you want me to repay the previous loans in advance?!

Fuck you, you are just a little jerk from the mainland, who has achieved some success by chance, and you have forgotten your last name?!"

The reason why President Xiao Lu was so furious was that the investigation team stationed in the Minsheng Department was recently conducting a thorough investigation into the group's related loan business.

The more than 300 billion shareholder-related loans made by Lu Zhiqiang, Shi Tiezhu and others have become de facto bad debts following the collapse of cotton futures investments.

You don’t know until you check. Once you check, you will be shocked. The assets used by shareholders as collateral for loans appear to be flawless on the surface, but in fact, they are full of loopholes. Most of the so-called high-quality assets are carefully packaged.

For example, the investment capital of several core industries owned by Lu Zhiqiang was obtained through mutual borrowing, taking advantage of his position as vice chairman of the Minsheng Group.

They can easily bypass the bank's back-end risk control supervision, use loans to repay investment principal, and then package the resources in a dazzling way, create virtual value-added out of thin air, and then continue to borrow at a higher valuation.

Financial operations make money quickly, but once you taste the sweetness, it is difficult to return to the basic business operations. How can you change a few numbers when you earn hard money? Is it easy to cash out from the financial market?
Therefore, the industries under the names of these people who went bankrupt, without exception, are all seriously insolvent. It is considered a small amount if 99 yuan of the principal is withdrawn for one yuan. Even one yuan of principal is borrowed.

Such a huge hidden danger involves thousands of companies controlled by them, and many listed groups are involved. The interests involved are too deep, so the special working group dare not continue the investigation.

However, the people's livelihood system is related to following the overseas expansion of micropayments, and behind it is the core strategy of the globalization of the RMB. The six-month rectification period is the longest period that the higher-ups can accept.

No one would dare to take the responsibility for failing to complete the task and delaying the national strategy. After many rounds of consultations, the special working group had to bite the bullet and wade into deep waters.

That is, no matter who is involved, no tigers or flies will be let off. The core is one thing: all related loans will be recovered in advance, and no leniency will be shown no matter who is involved behind the scenes.

As long as there is money and sufficient cash flow to support Qingyun to smoothly enter the market and take over, the rest will be handled by Qingyun through market means.

Under such circumstances, Mr. Xiao Lu's Dingguo Insurance was asked to pay back the loan in advance, with a total of 71 loans totaling more than 30 billion yuan. Before, he gritted his teeth and took out the money to fill the hole.

The key point is that Mr. Xiao Lu suffered more than a little loss in cotton futures. Through the names of other people, he lost hundreds of millions of dollars in financial investments in the Minsheng Department alone.

At Pufa Bank and Qiantang Bank, there are also holes of hundreds of millions of dollars that cannot be filled. If it were Dingguo, with total assets of nearly one trillion yuan in 13/14, it would be a small problem that could be easily solved by sprinkling some water.

Now?

Even if Dingguo Insurance were put together, it would not be able to accumulate 10 billion in net assets, let alone the so-called healthy cash flow, even though it is already the eighth largest comprehensive insurance group in the country.

But the essence is still to make money through financial operations. The actual business income is not enough to repay the loan, let alone maintain the most basic personal connections.

So many key figures serve as directors and independent directors of Dingguo Insurance, using their own personal connections to support Dingguo. What they are pursuing is not just a few billion yuan.

Even if this number increases ten or a hundred times, it may not be able to meet the needs of everyone.

"Boss Xiao Lu, the higher-ups are pressing us very hard, especially Qiantang Bank. After learning about our situation, they almost made 80 calls a day to demand payment.

I am worried that if we continue to delay, bigger problems will arise later. Don’t forget the huge pit of tens of billions when we acquired Ruifude and stripped out the bad assets and repackaged them.”

As the apparent persons in charge of Dingguo Insurance, Hu Maosheng and Wu Xiaohui were both anxious. Behind Dingguo's series of aggressive mergers and acquisitions to grow were countless god-level operations that had stunned outsiders.

It’s not about how clever the means are, but that the various forces involved are like high and mighty gods in the eyes of ordinary people, no matter which one you pick out.

His ancestors and fathers are all famous super figures in textbooks.

Otherwise, where would so much money come from to be poured in without any charge?

Mr. Xiao Lu cursed fiercely, "What else can I do? I'm not a god, how can I get 10 billion to fill the hole?"

At this point, he couldn't help but look at Wu Xiaohui, "Xiao Wu, it seems that all these difficulties now can only be solved by you coming forward.

As long as we can convince that person and get him to come out and greet Qingyun, it would be best if we can get another 30 to 50 billion from that guy to tide over the difficulties."

Wu Xiaohui knew what he was planning and shook his head wildly, "Forget it, I've already tried to ask that person, hoping that he can help me because I worked with my uncle in Kang~.

But he said that this matter must be personally addressed by my uncle. As you know, my uncle has difficulty walking and it is inconvenient for him to come out, and I did this without telling my family.

She didn't know anything about it. If she knew that Dingguo had lost more than a billion dollars in the United States, I might not even be able to keep my current position!"

"Don't look at me. If you two can't solve this big problem, I can't do anything about it either."

Seeing that the two of them glanced at him from time to time while chatting, Hu Maosheng simply spread his hands and took over the conversation, "With the connections I accumulated at SAIC before, it's not bad to raise 10 billion or 800 million in a short period of time.

Hundreds of billions of funds, you two still think too highly of me. If I had this ability, I wouldn’t have had to beg my grandparents to raise funds in the early years.”

Mr. Xiao Lu didn't have high expectations for him in the first place. It would be better if he could solve the problem of 1 billion or 8 billion, than having his capital chain broken and becoming a laughing stock in the circle.

"No matter what, the Minsheng Department cannot withdraw the loan. Unfortunately, they were thrown into disarray before. In order to fill the gap of a few hundred million US dollars, they loosened their control in advance, allowing that guy to take advantage of the situation and get the admission ticket.

They have proposed a strategy to expand overseas, which is like setting up a makeshift team. The higher-ups are very interested, but now there are too many people watching them, so they have no room to maneuver. "

Mr. Xiao Lu sighed, "Is there any way to solve the problem now? At this point, we are all in the same boat. We all prosper together and suffer together. Let's stop hiding things.

Say whatever you want to say! "

Unfortunately, they suffered huge losses and the hole they dug was too big. This time, there was no chairman of Zhongxin Group to help settle the matter, and they had no bargaining chips to continue to impress Qingyun Group.

In order to smoothly take over the Minsheng Group, Li Zehua agreed to make a deal with Zhongxin and spent nearly US$7 million to fill certain holes that could not be exposed. Now the situation is set.

There is no point in making further concessions. The people behind him have opened their mouths, waiting to get their share of the meat. How can they allow outsiders to continue snatching food?

It was impossible for Li Zehua to use his share to compensate, otherwise outsiders would think he was too weak and would be the first to get his share if something happened in the future.

After much discussion, they still couldn't come up with a definite solution. Hu Maosheng gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and said grimly, "Let's just go for it and bring in the funds from the Energy Department directly."

Wu Xiaohui's heart was pounding, and he almost roared, "Are you crazy?"

Xiao Lu always closed his eyes and said nothing.

Hu Maosheng also risked his life, "Boss Xiao Lu, Boss Wu, don't blame me for suggesting this, we have discussed the matter in depth enough, even if I don't get in the car, you dare to guarantee it.

Won’t we be implicated in future accidents?

What's more, the problems the group is facing now are far from being solved by tens of billions of funds. In the long run, it will cost more than hundreds of billions. As the saying goes, if you don't work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth, and you won't be helped by your superiors.

If we are left to our own devices, then we will just survive from death."

When Mr. Xiao Lu thought about the outcome after failure, he couldn't help but shudder, "How can I live like this?"

If things don't work out, losing face is a small matter. From now on, you will be confined behind high walls and say goodbye to the colorful world completely.

"The Energy Department promised that if we enter the market, they will be able to increase their total assets to more than 55 billion within a year.

As long as funds from various sources can pass through here and then go back in the name of insurance industry investment, they are willing to provide a return of no less than 15 points.

The most important thing is that the amount of funds involved is very large. Even if it only stays in the account for a period of time, it is enough for us to take it to the financial market for mortgage loans.

In less than half a year, the existing holes will be filled.”

Faced with Hu Maosheng's sincere persuasion, Xiao Lu and Wu Xiaohui finally did not refuse. The reality did not allow them to continue considering it.

Everyone knows that this time the higher-ups are serious. Once Dingguo's related businesses in Minsheng collapse and other banks come together to demand repayment, the tens of billions of dollars in debt will collapse in an instant.

By then, no one on this line will let these instigators go.

In order to survive, they have no choice but to keep going, even though they know that this road is bound to be full of risks in the future.

We can only keep going.

"Humph, I suffered such a big loss, that kid won't have an easy life either. Isn't your brother the president of China Unicom? Let him come out and ruin the cooperation with WeChat and Qingyun Electronics."

Xiao Lu always has revenge to take. "Revenge will not be taken overnight. Say hello first and we can play slowly later." (End of this chapter)
