Chapter 179: An Awkward Choice (2)
Zhong Lin's heartbeat almost stopped, "Mr. Huo, I reported to you last time. The project was developed for urban planning reasons and was divided into five phases. The current situation is that there are changes in the plan, and we have invested too much in the early stage of this project, in order to avoid investment risks, we have calculated the expenses and decided to postpone the construction ......"
After a pause, he looked up.
"Why did you suddenly think to ask this? Did someone tell you something?"
Huo Zhongnan glanced at him, "Are you afraid of what others will say to me?"
Zhong Lin was stunned for a moment, and his face changed, "Mr. Huo, I have shown you all the information about Fucheng." It's a loss-making deal for our company, and I don't think we have any reason to do it. ”
Huo Zhongnan nodded and got up, "Got it." ”
Zhong Lin looked at his back, and still felt that it was a little strange for him to suddenly ask about Fucheng.
Sure enough, when I went to the company the next day, I saw Ding Yue enter the president's office.
In the past, Huo Zhongnan would let him accompany him for this kind of thing, because he lost his memory, and many things needed to be mentioned by Zhong Lin, except for Zhong Lin, he was not very willing to contact too many people. This caused Zhong Lin's performance in power.
But this time, he met Ding Yuejin alone.
What the two of them were talking about inside, Zhong Lin didn't know.
He had been waiting anxiously, and in about forty minutes, Ding Yuejin left, and Huo Zhongnan called him in.
"You're doing the right thing. ”
Zhong Lin finally fell in one breath and lowered his head.
"Mr. Huo, what are you referring to?"
Huo Zhongnan looked at him lightly, "Sheng Tian is not a charity. The life and death of other companies should not be the key factor for us to consider. In business, the kindness of women will not work. ”
He patted the information on the table and looked at Zhong Lin coldly.
"I've researched, this floating city, there is no value left. Cut through the mess quickly, calculate the cost, and get rid of it as soon as possible. ”
Zhong Lin's eyes lit up, and he was suddenly a little relieved.
"Yes. ”
The boss finally stopped messing around, had the judgment and thinking of a normal person, and finally managed the company like a normal person, instead of "people are stupid and have a lot of money", looking like he wanted the company to go bankrupt soon.
Zhong Lin was so moved that he almost cried, but when he walked out of the office, he suddenly stopped.
Life and death of other companies?
He's referring to Dayu, right?
It must have been Ding Yuejin who told him about it.
What do you want to do, old boy?
Zhong Lin was wary of Ding Yuejin. Ding Yuejin is different from Xu Yihai, he is not as meritorious as Xu Yihai, nor is Xu Yihai arrogant, relatively speaking, he is more calm.
He didn't move for a while, and suddenly asked Huo Zhongnan to say Fucheng?
Zhong Lin sat alone at the desk for more than half an hour, smoked a cigarette, thought for a long time, and finally dialed Yu Dazhuang's phone.
~
When he got off work, he went to the wood turkey.
I haven't been to this place for a long time, but Aunt Liu still knows him and warmly invites him in.
is still the old location, the simple rural courtyard, Aunt Liu's self-reserved land, and the place where the Yu family comes to gather every time.
In the past, every time Zhong Lin came, it was to accompany Huo Zhongnan. This is the first time he has walked into this courtyard alone, and it is also the first time he has met his family alone.
He thought that Yu Dazhuang asked him to be here, and there would not be too many people to attend. I didn't expect that the people were quite neat. In addition to Yu Dazhuang and Yu Xiuxiu's father and daughter, there are also Xie Mile, Wei Xiaolong, and Shi Xiaojian's apprentices, all of whom are familiar faces.
Zhong Lin was a little surprised, put down his briefcase, and smiled awkwardly.
"It's all here. ”
Yu Dazhuang snorted, his expression unchanged, "Come on, come on, sit here." Lao Liu, bring the wine. I remember Xiao Zhong loved to drink your soaking wine......"
Zhong Lin hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, Uncle Yu, I came by car." ”
Yu Dazhuang glared at him with tiger eyes, "What are you afraid of driving? Can't we leave food for the substitute driver?"
Zhong Lin: ......
This time, he wanted to find Yu Dazhuang several times, but he didn't dare. I don't dare to face them, and I am afraid that seeing them will make me change my decision, or I can't bear it. Because of the Yu family, there is really a kind of magic, it is easy for people to integrate into their collective, like a family.
Yu Dazhuang didn't see him, greeted the wine, and greeted the food.
Tonight, I ate Aunt Liu's signature dish firewood turkey, and Yu Xiuxiu didn't make hot pot again. She said very little, unusually little, and when she saw Zhong Lin, she just smiled, not even a sound.
Zhong Lin's heart tugged, and it hurt a little.
"What are you doing with Hugh?"
Yu Xiuxiu raised his mobile phone, "Play games." ”
Zhong Lin smiled: "Eat and play games?"
Yu Xiuxiu pursed his lips and just smiled.
Her attitude looks very polite, but after all, she is a person who was once so familiar, and even a look can see that she is clearly estranged. He was no longer in Hugh's friends.
Zhong Lin was silent.
"Xiao Zhong, you're welcome. It's all at this time, you can still think of Uncle Yu, a good young man. Yu Dazhuang gave Zhong Lin a thumbs up and grinned, "It's much better than that conscienceless little bastard." ”
Who the conscienceless little bastard refers to, everyone here knows.
Everyone didn't speak, and Zhong Lin was a little embarrassed.
He put down his chopsticks and looked a little hesitant, "Uncle Yu, in fact, I came to you today to talk about business." ”
"Yes, yes. You, you don't have anything to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Haha, but, no matter how big the business is, it's not as big as the belly thing. Yu Dazhuang poured him full of wine, "Come on, come on, eat first and then talk about business, we still have a long time." ”
Zhong Lin smiled and didn't speak again.
Yu Dazhuang is the oldest of these people.
He has some gangsterism, righteousness, and wisdom that a man of this age should have, as well as open-mindedness and calmness that others don't have. He doesn't point it out, he doesn't embarrass people, he is very honest.
Zhong Lin looked at him talking and laughing, and his eyes gradually deepened.
Could such a person be the culprit of the tragedy of Huo Zhongnan's family?
He had a hard time connecting the two.
However, Yu Dazhuang thirty years ago, not Yu Dazhuang now, "poor **, rich conscience", people will change.
Three rounds of drinking.
Zhong Lin gradually became a little drunk, and his mood was very bad.
"Uncle Yu, there is a deal, I want to talk to you. ”
Yu Dazhuang: "Let's talk first, is it you, or Sheng Tian?"
Zhong Lin pursed his lips: "Sheng Tian." ”
Yu Dazhuang waved his hand and laughed: "Then forget it, forget it, the company that will make people bankrupt without saying a word, you Uncle Yu can't afford to provoke it, you can't afford to provoke it." ”
Zhong Lin frowned, "With all due respect, Uncle Yu, there aren't many choices you can make now." Fucheng has been rotting there, it's just a small thing for Sheng Tian, and it's a big thing for you. What I'm telling you is the best I can think of for you right now to get you through this. ”
Yu Dazhuang put down his chopsticks, raised his eyebrows, and smiled with interest.
"Tell me about it. ”
Zhong Lin said: "Dayu's best way at present is to take down the floating city as a whole. ”
Yu Dazhuang sighed and asked with a smile: "Be a pick-up man?
Zhong Lin shook his head and said: "Dayu contracted the civil construction of Fucheng, and civil construction is the most important part of the whole project. For the rest, for uncle, there is no difficulty, right?"
Yu Dazhuang said: "It's difficult. I'm a bare-bones commander now. Can Sheng Tian allow me to pay in installments? Twenty years, thirty years, fifty years? Or will any bank lend me such a large sum of money?
Lack of funds is Dayu's biggest problem,
Zhong Lin thought for a while: "On the issue of price, I will try my best to mediate." ”
He said it very sincerely, and Yu Dazhuang looked at him for a moment and slowly raised his wine glass.
"Drinking. ”
If the floating city as a whole is taken over, it is indeed the best way to solve Dayu's burning extreme. Although there is also an element of gambling, it is the most profitable way to recover costs. If you can keep the selling price of Sheng Tian to the lowest, you will have to make money.
Moreover, Dayu's current situation is actually even more terrible than Zhong Lin predicted. The market has a ripple effect. Since the floating city was put on hold, a vicious circle has begun. Other projects are either yellow, delayed, or suffered from arrears, and the company is like being cursed, and nothing goes well, almost to the point of falling apart.
A lot of people are waiting to see the jokes of their families, and bankruptcy seems to be their only way out.
If it is an ordinary person, at this time, he will give up, take a sum of money and leave, and his life will not be too bad. But Yu Dazhuang refused to admit defeat. After he settles down his family, he has no worries, even if every day is like a year, he still grits his teeth and holds on, not believing in evil.
Dayu is his hard work and the embodiment of his life value. If he can't turn the tables against the wind, he is already this age, how can he have the next chance?
Zhong Lin threw it to Dayu today, it was an olive branch.
Yu Dazhuang knows, and everyone else knows.
When Zhong Lin was waiting for the substitute driver on the side of the road, he ran into Xie Mille.
She should have come directly from the company, wearing a very formal dress, long hair hanging down her shoulders, sharp eyes, a little sassy.
Seeing Zhong Lin, she walked over, "Can you give me a ride?"
Zhong Lin looked at the door of the firewood turkey behind her, "You specifically looked for me?"
Yu's family didn't leave, she came out at this time, how could it be a coincidence?
Xie Mile looked at him for a moment and smiled faintly: "Clever." ”
Zhong Lin was silent for a moment, "We don't seem to know each other very well. ”
"You've sent me home before. ”
Zhong Lin: "That's not familiar. ”
"It doesn't matter. Xie Mile took the strap of the bag, tilted his head, and smiled: "Contact it a few more times, and it will be cooked." ”
