"Chairman Zhou Ming is not good, something big has happened!"

In the afternoon, when Zhou Ming returned to the office of the headquarters building of the National Telecommunications Company after finishing his lunch, he heard Carlos running to report to him in a panic. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Carlos's words were also unexpected by Zhou Ming, because Zhou Ming never thought that Limous would sit still, especially when he was so obvious in the morning meeting, Limus should understand that he had thought of a countermeasure no matter how stupid he was, so with his strength to stop it desperately at the meeting, how could he not think of a way after the meeting? As for the unexpected, Zhou Ming did not expect his action to be so fast.

"It's not the end of the world, there's no need to be so panicked, you can tell me what's going on first. Zhou Ming said to Carlos.

Seeing Zhou Ming, Carlos slowly calmed down, and he told Zhou Ming: "The chairman is like this, just now Bankman Bank called and said that Vice President Marco would come to our side in the afternoon for the loan, and they said that the loan we owe them has formed a default and needs us to return it immediately, otherwise they will sue us." ”

Zhou Ming nodded at this: "I know, you can inform Vice Chairman Antonio of this kind of thing, I believe he will know what to do." ”

Zhou Ming's idea is right, the Mexican National Telecommunications Company defaulted on the bank loan and could not repay it for a day or two, not that Zhou Ming felt that there were too many lice and did not itch, but since there had been no accident in the past, it meant that this was not a big deal, so let Antonio, the only high-level old man left in the company, come forward, and naturally solve it as in the past. What Zhou Ming didn't expect was Carlos's next words.

"But this time it doesn't seem to be that simple. Carlos told Zhou, "Because after Bankman, ten banks, including Sanchester Bank, Banco Norte de MΓ©xico and Bank of Baja California, have also said they will also come to the National Telecom Building." ”

Kindness?

Zhou Ming frowned, he felt that things were unusual, because it was easy to understand if only one bank came to ask for debts, but ten banks came to ask for debts at the same time, which was very strange.

So Zhou Ming thought for a while, and then came directly to Vice Chairman Antonio's office.

Zhou Ming didn't ask politely when he arrived here: "I want to ask if there has been a situation where the heads of ten banks have come to the company to ask for debts before?"

In the face of Zhou Ming's question, Rao is Antonio did not dare to slack off, he thought about it and replied: "In the past, there have been cases where several banks have jointly forced debts, but that is only urging on the phone, and only five of them are united, because at that time, the national telecommunications company was controlled by the central government, so they mainly put pressure on the government, and there has never been a company building here." ”

"I see, so that means that even Vice Chairman Antonio, you don't know what to do?" Zhou Ming asked.

"If it's just one or two banks, I can choose to take them to play golf or tennis or all the sports they like, but with 10 banks, it's a real headache. ”

Antonio thought about it for a while at the end and reminded Zhou Ming: "Chairman, I think there are other reasons behind this?"

Zhou Ming glanced at Antonio, obviously he said this to remind himself that these ten banks suddenly jointly forced debts to the national telecom, and they were arranged by someone or force behind the scenes.

But in fact, Antonio's reminder is redundant, because even if he doesn't say Zhou Ming, he can guess, after all, Zhou Ming still clearly remembers that Jefferson is the largest shareholder of Bankman Bank, and now if he wants to say that it is none of his business, I am afraid that even a three-year-old child will not believe it.

"Thanks to the vice chairman for the reminder, I think I remembered. Zhou Ming then said, "But no matter what the cause of the incident is this time, but the heads of the ten banks are about to come to the company, and we still have to make some preparations." You know I'm from the United States, and I don't know the habits here, and Vice Chairman Antonio, you're the veteran of the company, so I need your help. ”

"I am very grateful to the chairman for his trust in me, I am also a member of the national telecommunications company, and of course I will not be indifferent to such a thing. ”

Through this sentence, Antonio agreed to Zhou Ming's work arrangement, and then the vice chairman found the logistics to pack up a very grand reception room first, and took out the very famous Jamaican coffee, and found the most beautiful front desk of the building to greet at the door.

Zhou Ming was a little helpless because he thought that the Mexicans would have some new routines, and in the end, their feelings were similar to those in China! And from the logistics department, these things can be taken out at any time, as well as the special reception room and the welcome desk at the door, it can be imagined that the national telecommunications company did not do these things in the past.

However, when Antonio commanded the general affairs and logistics departments, he finally prepared everything in half an hour, and then waited for two hours without seeing anyone from the bank.

Antonio was very puzzled by this, he looked at Zhou Ming from time to time, although he didn't say it, but Zhou Ming also understood his thoughts.

So Zhou Ming first said: "Vice chairman, has there been such a situation before? Obviously, the bank has called to inform you, but no one has come over for a long time. ”

"Sometimes it may be that the person in charge of the bank has something to deal with temporarily, so it will be delayed for a while, but it is usually within an hour, and now it has been two and a half hours......

Antonio's words were not finished, but his meaning could not be clearer, and the situation was clearly problematic.

Zhou Ming waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, since they haven't arrived yet, we might as well wait a little longer, anyway, before the new project starts, we are not so busy, and besides, it is better for us to use these things ourselves than to cheapen outsiders." ”

So they waited in the reception room for another hour, and it was not until they were about to leave work in the afternoon that they finally received a call from the reception room at the door, saying that Vice President Marco of Bankman Bank and the vice presidents of nine other banks had arrived.

Zhou Ming did not hesitate to invite them up, and a few minutes later, Marco and the others were finally taken to the reception room.

Marco is a Spanish man with white hair who wears rimless glasses and walks the front, appearing to be the deputy governor of Bankman, who is also the central figure of the ten.

"You're very welcome!" Zhou Ming and Antonio stood up and greeted with a smile.

Marco and the others ignored it, walked straight up to Zhou Ming and asked very unceremoniously: "You are Zhou Ming, the new chairman of the State Telecom Company?" Then please repay the company's loan of 100 million US dollars owed immediately, otherwise we will not rule out that we will get our money back through litigation." ”

Antonio was stunned, because he didn't expect Marco to come up and get to the point so unceremoniously, and after Marco, the heads of other banks also questioned him in the same way.

"And we Sanchester Bank, we need to carry out your repayment procedure now, otherwise we will apply to the court to enforce it in order to auction off your mortgaged assets, we are Banco Norte de Mexico, I think my tolerance for you has reached the limit, we will not give you any more excuses and reasons for delay, we must get the repayment ......"

In the face of their words, Antonio stepped forward and explained: "I understand your intentions, and we have been preparing for this, so you might as well sit down and have a cup of coffee, this is a famous ...... from Jamaica."

It can be seen from Antonio's skillful movements that this is not the first time he has done such a thing, but this time the other party did not buy it, Marco waved his hand directly and said: "There is no need to say these hypocritical invitations! If I can get the national telecom company to repay the loan in full by drinking coffee, then I can assure you that there will be no more coffee beans in the entire telecom building after today!"

After Marco, the other bank officials followed suit: "That's right, we're here to get back your debts, not your coffee beans!"

Antonio said: "Of course I understand, but we are all elites, and our conversation should naturally be conducted in an elegant environment, drinking the best coffee from Jamaica, otherwise it is just a random room, and everyone is talking with inferior tea, which at least has to wait until we lose our jobs, and it is still too ugly, isn't it?"

I have to say that Antonio, as an old bureaucrat of the national telecommunications company, is still very good at what he says and does, at least as far as his rhetoric is concerned, it is not obvious and there is no flaw at all.

For this statement, you must have convinced them in normal times, but today, Marco said: "It is true that we, as the elite in the industry, should be decent, but the prerequisite for decency should be our mutual respect, but Vice Chairman Antonio, are you trying to use coffee as a weapon to persuade us?

Originally, everyone else wanted to accept Antonio's proposal for the sake of face, but as Marco's words came out, they immediately changed their minds: "That's right, vice chairman, your approach is really unstandard! We are here to ask for debts today, not to ask for coffee......

Faced with the aggressiveness of these bank leaders, Antonio panicked all of a sudden, because he had never experienced such a scene, shouldn't these people be very talkative?

For this reason, Antonio had to ask Zhou Ming for help.

Zhou Ming only stood up at this time, he looked at the ten bank leaders in front of him and asked, "So the purpose of your coming today is to insist on asking for debts, right?"

"That's right, National Telecom has owed the bank for too long, and we must get an explanation today, or we have the right to sue you!" Marko said, and other bank officials chimed in.

Zhou Ming nodded: "I see, then do you have anything else to do?"
