February 19, 1997 was a day of great sorrow for the Chinese people. A big-hearted, strong-willed, world-changing old man, a 93-year-old politician has come to the end of his life.

His death has left China unable to completely shake off its grief throughout the first half of the year. A cloud of sadness has been hanging over 1997, from beginning to end!

.........................................................

In this year, the world's hottest movie is "Titanic" filmed in Hollywood, the United States, a world's largest luxury passenger ship in the early 20th century, known as "unsinkable", sank to the bottom of the North Atlantic Ocean with elegant musical accompaniment and terrifying screams one after another, and sank together, as well as the "love" between the young wandering painter Jack Dawson and the aristocratic lady Rose.

As audiences walk out of the theater with mixed feelings, tragedy is about to unfold in the commercial world, and grief is the same.

A series of sudden events in the corporate world of Asia and China have shattered countless dreams like a bubble.

The most significant, malign* event was the financial turmoil that swept through Asian countries.

An American investor named George Soros has been regarded by Asian politicians for many years to come as a financial giant with mysterious and evil overtones.

Also in February, Soros's Quantum Fund aimed at Thailand, where the economy was overheated and there was a deficit crisis, and began to sell the Thai baht aggressively, causing the Thai baht to fluctuate sharply against the US dollar, and the Thai government used $5 billion in foreign exchange reserves and $20 billion in loans to intervene in the foreign exchange market, but it still could not stop the Thai baht from falling all the way.

By July 2, the Thai government was forced to announce that the exchange rate would float freely, and within a day, the baht had plummeted by 20%. After sniping at the Thai baht, Soros turned to Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, South Korea, and Hong Kong, China, and the countries and regions attacked suffered huge financial damage.

Even Asia's most developed countries are not immune. In South Korea, the attacked won has depreciated by 50% in just over two months, and the country's economy is almost on the verge of collapse.

In Japan, the yen was not directly attacked, but the deflationary effects of the turmoil spread rapidly to all industries.

The Asian financial turmoil broke out one by one in China's neighboring countries, and the tragedy of the scene made people tremble. Financial capitalism and globalization have shown their ferocious and powerful destructive side. This will naturally affect China's industrial economy and people's mentality.

Amid the global stock market downturn, China's stock market, which was quite active in the past, has also fallen into a downturn, and the consumer market is even more depressed.

After several years of macroeconomic control, the pressure of inflation has been gradually released, and the inflation rate has dropped to almost zero, but the scene of overcooling consumption has appeared at the same time.

In such a harsh environment, those well-known enterprises that are speeding up and have no warning of risks have had a terrible avalanche for various reasons, making 97 years a "year of collapse" in the history of enterprises.

"How much to borrow?" Qin Fan didn't believe his ears a little.

"10 million, do you have it there?" Chen Guo only felt that his heart was much shorter, this was really no money, and his waist was weak.

"Is 10 million enough?" Qin Fan's casual voice on the phone made Chen Guo stunned.

"Enough, 10 million is enough, if you are willing to borrow, what conditions are there I will convey to Mr. Shi on your behalf, or I will ask Mr. Shi to call you. Chen Guo has some words.

"No conditions, just let him give me an IOU. Qin Fan didn't care, he knew that the 10 million now would not be a problem at all, even five 10 million would not be able to save him, but this product belonged to "Xiaoqiang". It's rare to be knocked down and still be able to get up.

"What do you say?" Shi Yuzhu looked at Chen Guo's strange face and asked urgently.

"10 million he borrowed. ”

"Are there any conditions?"

"No, just an IOU. ”

"Just let me make an IOU? No conditions? Did you hear me right?" Shi Yuzhu looked at Chen Guo suspiciously.

Chen Guo nodded slowly, then shook his head.

..................................................................

Quiet courtyard.

"Who rushed to the doctor?" asked Xuemei curiously.

"A customer. Qin Fan thought about it, for lending money to Lao Shi, he was not afraid that he would not pay it back, mainly how to mention this matter to Dong Min.

"What's the matter?" asked Xue Mei casually while feeding Ruo Qian.

"When you encounter difficulties, borrow money to tide over difficulties. Qin Fan glanced at her and said.

"Don't look at me, I don't have any money. Xuemei didn't ask how much money people borrowed, and replied resolutely.

Ruoxin, who was playing with the Beijing Lion in the yard, seemed to hear something, ran to Qin Fan upside down, and said in a milky voice: "Dad, I have money." As he spoke, he took out a stack of 20 yuan of new tickets from the small bag he was wearing crossbody----- which was the New Year's money given by relatives and elders during the Chinese New Year.

Qin Fan smiled and hugged her: "Ruoxin, you are really my good baby." ”

Ruoxin smiled and kissed him on the cheek and said, "Dad, you are also my good baby." ”

Xuemei knocked the small soup spoon in her hand on the rice bowl and shouted to the two: "You two want to go with meat!"

......

"Who do you lend it to? Shi Yuzhu? Just the tall and thin man who came to the company that time, don't borrow it!" Dong Min, who had a very bad impression of Shi Yuzhu, refused.

"It's borrowing my money, and it has nothing to do with you, just asking you to tell the finances. Qin Fan couldn't cry or laugh, these two women asked them for money as if they were fatal.

"Your money is also my money, I said not to borrow. I don't know who Dong Min on the other end of the phone is angry with, and the words he said are stiff.

Qin Fan closed his phone and shook his head.

......

"Why are you doing that, borrowing it out, you won't be able to get it back for a few years, maybe after a long time, it's hard to say whether he misses you or not. Tang Yue learned about this from Xuemei and came to persuade her.

"Do you women only have money in your eyes?" Qin Fan chuckled.

"I only have you in my eyes!" Tang Yue muttered, her eyes misting again, hugging him sideways, snorting the smell of his body.

The sky was blue, with the occasional light cloud. Not far away, Ruoxin was running with a little kite with a fat butterfly, trying to make it fly, and the Beijing lion followed behind and screamed excitedly.

After running back and forth a few times, Ruoxin was a little discouraged, looking for her father and Aunt Tang Yue, and after a while, she saw that on the dry grass in the middle of the slope, Aunt Tang Yue was holding her father!

The warm sunlight sprinkled on the two lying down, the lazy Qin Fan felt the movement around him, opened his eyes, and saw Ruoxin's angry little eyes, Jing Shi standing at her feet, also tilting his head to look at him and Tang Yue.

"What's wrong? Qin Fan sat up and stretched out his hands to her. Ruoxin twisted her little body and said loudly to Tang Yue: "Dad is mine." ”

Tang Yue also sat up and asked with a smile, "Ruoxin, do you like Dad very much?"

"Hmm. Ruoxin nodded thoughtlessly.

"Then I like your dad very much, too. Tang Yue continued.

"I don't want you to like it. Ruoxin shouted, although she didn't know anything, she felt extremely uncomfortable when she saw Aunt Tang Yue hugging her father.

"Ruoxin, let me ask you, do you want you to like others too, or do you like what others don't like?" Tang Yue said with tongue-twisting likes and dislikes.

Ruoxin tilted her head, frowned and thought for a long time: "Of course, what I like also hopes others will like." ”

"Isn't that right, you like your father, I like your father too, do you want me to hate your father?" Tang Yue couldn't help but laugh and amused Ruoxin.

Ruoxin was a little confused and spit out a "no" word.

Tang Yue looked at the lovely Ruoxin in front of her who was outlined by the sunlight with a golden outline, and suddenly felt in a trance how good it would be if this was her own daughter. Stretched out his hand and hugged Ruoxin tightly in his arms: "Ruoxin, let me be your mother, okay?"

"But I have a mother. Ruoxin was puzzled.

"Wouldn't it be nice to have an extra mother?"

"Call godmother. Qin Fan suddenly interjected. recalled that Tang Yue seemed to have no children for life.

On the grass, Qin Fan finally put the fat butterfly's kite up, Ruoxin opened her mouth happily, and Tang Yue also held her little hand in a good mood, unwilling to let go......

.........................................................

Chen Guo took the transfer check and thanked him repeatedly.

"I'm very strange, you giants have a lot of money from all over the world, how can you ......pay it back," Qin Fan put down the IOU written by Lao Shi and asked strangely.

Chen Guo smiled bitterly and told him: Giant Company's marketing is still running all over the country, and it is estimated that the sellers owe about 300 million yuan to Giant Group, and Mr. Shi himself estimates that there are at least 120 million yuan of benign creditor's rights. But the money just can't be recovered.

“...... If we take it back, we won't stop at the bottom of the money. Chen Guo said bitterly.

Qin Fan thought about the current situation of Giant, from less than half a year, the subsidiaries of Giant Group have grown from 38 to a record 228, the number of personnel has increased sharply from 200 to 2,000, and at its peak, the number of factories processing and supporting for Giant Group has reached 150, and the number of financial personnel who have worked overtime to handle the delivery procedures for customers in various companies alone has exceeded 200.

This has led to the "vampire" phenomenon in various enterprises, and countless disloyal sales, marketing and other personnel are trying every means to make money from the enterprise. Densely packed with miserable bloodsucking insects!

When Qin Fan mentioned this phenomenon during the chat, Chen Guo told him: In fact, Mr. Shi discovered this last year that if the mercenaries who lack a sense of loyalty to the giants smell the breath of crisis, there will be vicious incidents of frequent embezzlement of the interests of private groups in the local market, and many people regard the "Battle of Giant Fat Battle" as the "Last Supper". Even the "Giant Daily" within the group also exclaimed: There are so many shocking violations of laws and regulations within our Giant Group, and tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of assets have been lost in places where the sun does not shine.

"Is there no way to remedy it?"

"What's the solution. Chen Guo said hatefully. He was embarrassed to say: The extremely angry Shi Zong organized the manager of the national head office and the middle-level and above cadres of the headquarters to visit the prison for felons in Gaoming City, Guangdong Province, to show vigilance!

"In the second half of last year, there was 10 million dollars in a month in the Qingdao market in Shandong alone, but now it is ......" Chen Guo, who was depressed, couldn't go on.

Qin Fan patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Everything will get better." He had a very good impression of Chen Guo, who never gave up when he left the sad land of Zhuhai in a panic and wandered around the north and south of the river.

Maybe it was because of the worry about the Giant Group, or because of his good impression of Qin Fan, Chen Guo chatted with him for a long time.

................................................................

"What's the matter, you're still angry?" Qin Fan, who returned to his residence, saw that Dong Min was still gloomy, so he asked with a smile.

"Hmph!" Dong Min snorted heavily to show dissatisfaction.

Qin Fan picked up his son, teasing the child who was about to cry, and explained to Dong Min why he wanted to borrow money.

Dong Min silently cleaned up the room, ignoring him, and his face never turned clear.

"What's going on?" Qin Fan handed over the crying child to Sister Zhuang, who came to hear the sound, and asked Dong Min with a suppressed heart.

Dong Min bit her lip and finally said, "Jingyin has been here." ”
