Chapter 362: The Last Snow of 2002
Chapter 362: The Last Snow of 2002
In the last days of the year, Populus euphratica has been living on the horse farm.
During the day, he occasionally goes to Huijia Holdings (Xijiang) Company for a while, but most of the time he spends most of his time at home with his parents and teasing his niece Xiaoxi.
On the 30th, Chen Jialin and Gao Mingkang flew to Xijiang, and among the people who came on this day, there were also Lu Dacheng and Hu Yang's secretary Mi Qi.
On the 31st, Meng Rusong, Mu Shaoqing, Yan Hanzhang, Xia Bing, Xu Younian, Wan Qingshan, Huang Tao, Sa Hongli, Yang Chenglin, Ye Chong, Fei Zhijun, Wang Qingquan and others also arrived in Xijiang one after another.
The purpose of their arrival in Xijiang was not to attend any important meeting, but purely to welcome the New Year with everyone.
The racecourse stopped all services from the 30th, and Dong Qi asked the staff to renovate the rooms in the three villas and the complex, and the restaurant also prepared various ingredients.
"Ladies and gentlemen, all the executives of Walkers Holdings and Walkers International Investment, as well as the senior management of the 'Walkers family', have gathered together to welcome the New Year, and this is the first time. ”
On the evening of the 31st, Hu Yang held a welcome dinner at the member restaurant of the racecourse.
In addition to the above-mentioned familiar faces, the banquet was attended by senior executives of Huijia Holdings (Xijiang) Company, Xueling Food and Agricultural Technology Company, and even Huijia Ventures (North America) Company and Ruipo Company, which also sent two representatives back to China.
"I propose that everyone drink this cup and celebrate the New Year together. ”
Today's poplar looks in high spirits, and this is the first time he has officially put forward the concept of "Huijia system" in front of all the company's management.
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
Everyone, who could drink or not, drank this wine.
Next, Hu Yang announced the official start of the dinner, and he did not ramble at length, but handed over the time to everyone here today.
The menu was undoubtedly rich, and many of the delicacies were brought in these two days. In addition to Moutai and Elite Qu, there are also French red wines, so you can drink as much as you want.
"Brother Hu, are you trying to use this to build morale? I think this is a good idea, it is really difficult for these people to get together all year round. ”
Chen Jialin sat next to Populus Hu, and he was very happy that Bothstone Technology was also clearly incorporated into the Huijia system by Populus euphratica.
Gao Mingkang also had the same idea, but it was a pity that Lu Yali was abroad and couldn't rush back.
Some of these people are familiar with each other, while others are strangers. For example, the management team of Xueling Food, which has been in remote areas, and the senior management of agricultural technology companies, have seen the true face of the "Huijia system" for the first time.
The area of the member restaurant is not small, and Dong Qi also deliberately built a small stage. When Populus euphratica spoke before, he stood on it.
After the dinner began, in order to set off the atmosphere, Dong Qi specially arranged a singing and dancing performance. The performers were students from Xijiang University of the Arts, and the program was quite joyful.
Hu Yang didn't pay much attention to the performance on stage, and shortly after the dinner began, someone came over to toast him. These people can be said to be the backbone of his "Huijia system", of course he can't refuse, and he drank seven or eight cups without much effort.
"Mr. Hu, you can't drink like this. I don't think it's better to rest for a while and see if anyone wants to go up and sing a song?"
After a little bit of alcohol, the atmosphere at the scene became more enthusiastic. Chen Jialin is also kind, suggesting that everyone should not patronize and drink, and those who have the ability to show their talents on stage.
"Great idea!"
At this time, the performance on stage came to an end, Hu Yang walked on the stage and picked up the microphone, and shouted: "Mr. Chen of Stubborn Stone Technology proposes that everyone also come on stage to have fun, which of you comes up to perform a show? First of all, the person who has performed the show has the right not to drink tonight." ”
As soon as his words fell, Xia Bing stepped onto the stage generously.
Hu Yang said with a smile: "It's still our Huijia International Investment's Xia always has the courage, and the women don't let the eyebrows go." Mr. Xia, what show are you going to perform?"
Xia Bing also drank a lot of wine, and at this time, two red clouds flew on his cheeks. Hearing Hu Yang ask herself, she said she wanted to sing a song.
There was an internal party in the company, and there was no band prepared on site. However, among the students from the Academy of Arts, there are people who play the guitar well, and after communicating with Xia Bing, they use guitar accompaniment.
Xia Bing sang Wen Lan's "Blue Rain", which is a popular song at this point in time. Her voice is good, and her tone is relatively accurate, and she received bursts of applause from the audience after singing the song.
"Mr. Xia sang so well, let's give her another round of applause. Who's down there?"
As soon as Hu Yang's words fell, a man in his thirties came up. This person Hu Yang has a bit of an impression that he is a vice president of Xueling Company.
The vice president of Qi sang a song of Xu Wei's "Blue Lotus", which was also above the level, and after he finished singing, the atmosphere of the scene was basically ignited.
At this time, the people in the audience began to coax, muttering that Mr. Hu would come to a song.
Hu Yang smiled, not to disappoint everyone's enthusiasm, so he walked over and borrowed a guitar and came back. His guitar playing level is not bad, mainly playing and singing by himself to master the rhythm.
With the microphone set up, he stood up and began to play the prelude. After going back and forth several times, I suddenly found the feeling, so I started singing:
The first snow of 2002
Coming a little later than ever
A No. 2 bus parked on the eighth floor
Took away the last falling yellow leaves
.......
This is a famous song by Daolang, which is a bit appropriate at this moment. It's just that this album won't be officially released until a year later, so there are almost no people who know this song.
After poplar singing, the scene was quiet for a full ten seconds, and then burst into long-lasting applause.
"Assistant Lin, it turns out that the boss's singing is so good. But do you know what this song is called? I haven't heard it before......
The secretary Mi Qi has been here for a short time and doesn't know Hu Yang very well. Her face flushed with excitement at this time, and she asked Lin Yan vigorously.
Lin Yan smiled and shook her head, saying that she had never heard this song before. However, this song is really good.
Chen Jialin, Gao Mingkang and others were not surprised, Hu Yang had also sung in front of them before, and knew that he had talent in this area.
At this time, Hu Yang had quietly walked off the stage and handed the microphone to Dong Qi. Now everyone can continue to be happy, he can rest.
The dinner lasted until 11:55 p.m., and then everyone walked out of the dining room and into a snow-covered clearing outside.
At 12 o'clock, the New Year's bell rang, and 2003 arrived as scheduled. Fireworks bloom in the night sky, and everyone hopes that both the company and themselves will get better and better year by year.
Following.
That is, on New Year's Day, Dong Qi organized everyone to go to the mountains to ski for half a day of snow, and people began to return one after another on the afternoon of the first day.
By the second day of January, all the people who came to participate in the event had basically left.
On this day, the New Year's special issue of the financial magazine was officially released, and a storm was quietly brewing, which caught many people off guard.
In this issue of Financial Weekly, a reporter's investigative article was published, the title was not thrilling, and the content was not very eye-catching, telling about the reporter's friend's concerns about Xijiang Wanlong Trust products.
By the end of 2002, Xijiang Bandung had actually been very tight on funds, whether it was Pang Qianli's industrial integration plan or its operation mode of controlling the market and sitting in the bank, it had consumed too much money......
In this red situation, a trust company controlled by Xijiang Wanlong launched a trust product with a very high interest rate, so it successfully attracted many customers to buy.
The gathered funds have solved Pang Qianli's urgent need, but they have also buried huge hidden dangers.
After New Year's Day, a large number of customers suddenly came to the business department of the trust company, proposing to redeem the trust products in their hands in advance, even if they lost a little interest.
Of course, the trust company will not do it, and before the time expires, let everyone come back in three months.
If this is a normal situation, this matter is just a matter of getting your money back three months later?
But now the situation is different, there are rumors that the capital chain of Xijiang Bandung is broken, and the redemption of trust products will be very difficult, and their money can be taken back one day earlier, and they will be relieved one day earlier.
People often have the heart of conformity, and when they came to buy trust products with high interest rates, they also came in a swarm. Now to redeem and cash out, it is still a swarm of bees.
There's a terrible term in the financial industry called "runs," and it's going for the worst.
This matter, of course, alarmed Pang Qianli.
But he now has no large amount of money to mobilize, and he can either stop industrial integration or withdraw from the three stocks he controls. But either way, there are unpredictable consequences.
"What's the matter with this reporter? Why is it always difficult to get along with us in Xijiang Bandung?"
Pang Qianli knew that even if he took back and destroyed all the financial magazines in this issue, it would be too late.
He felt that it was better to use the old method, on the one hand, to quickly clarify, and on the other hand, to send a lawyer's letter to the magazine and reporters, preparing to sue them for defamation.
It's a pity that this time it didn't work, the problem of trust products was picked up, suspected of multiple violations, and it was useless to say anything if it was not paid to customers in time.
Pang Qianli and his Xijiang Bandung were in a predicament for a while.
Hu Yang didn't care much about this, after New Year's Day, he went to Xueling Food and Agricultural Technology Company to inspect a circle, and when he returned, he received a call from Wu Di.
Wu Di said that he had something to talk to him about, so he took the time to go to Wu Di's office and meet with the other party.
"Yang Yang, do you know about the illegal high-interest issuance of Xijiang Wanlong Trust products? Do you think Pang Qianli can pass this time?"
This time, Wu Di also doubted whether someone was behind it.
However, even the reporter who wrote the article couldn't tell who gave the information, and others couldn't figure it out.
