Chapter 53: The Father-Son Dispute

Pan's Group is a well-known private enterprise in Mingnan, the founder of the enterprise Pan Zhong was originally an ordinary coal miner, and later when the state encouraged collectives and individuals to run mines, Pan Zhong was infected by policy propaganda, unwilling to be mediocre, he persuaded his family, brought money from the bank, pulled a group of apprentices to start the world, and set up his own small coal kiln.

Mingnan was originally a region with a large number of high-quality shallow coal layers, and a shovel could see this large amount of black gold, coupled with the fact that there were few people as bold as Pan Zhong at that time, and with the support of national policies, Pan Zhong was lucky to become the first batch of people in Mingnan to get rich.

After earning money, Pan Zhong expanded production, bought large-scale equipment, and annexed many small coal kilns around, so that the small coal kilns were opened into large coal mines, and then coal washing plants, coking plants, and quarries were opened, and became a well-known coal enterprise in southern Mingnan.

After becoming bigger, Pan Zhong began to invest in real estate, department stores, chemicals, as long as he saw a business that could make money outside, Pan Zhong would find a way to introduce Mingnan and introduce his own company.

Gradually, Pan Zhong's small coal kiln became a large group with multi-industry development, and Pan Zhong also became the leading entrepreneur in Mingnan. Of course, the group's most profitable projects are still related to coal.

Since the company became bigger, Pan Zhong has not stayed in the company every day to take command as before, let alone run the business in disgrace. He handed over the company to his son Pan Lun and those old subordinates to take care of, and only came forward in person for some big projects.

In addition, Pan Zhong will only spend some time when maintaining the relationship with some big customers and big leaders. So his personal time has increased significantly.

Poon Chung began to enjoy life and enjoy the happy time of his successful people. The wife of the chaff had been disliked by him, and he began to look for those young and beautiful women, and blatantly brought those women home, making them Pan Lun's little mothers, and he had too many mistresses to raise outside the house.

It is said that he is full of warmth and lust, and Pan Zhong is a loyal practitioner of this remark. Later, Pan Zhong also liked gambling, and he had to go to Jindao every other day, and Pan Lun's love of playing cards was also influenced by his father. Of course, in the years when the coal industry was prosperous, Pan Zhong's small hobbies were irrelevant to the overall situation, not only did not hinder the development of the company, but his company became bigger and bigger, and there was the later Pan Group.

Pan Lun is the eldest son of Pan Chung, born to Pan Chung when he was a coal miner. At that time, Pan Zhong had no education, and he was busy solving the problem of food rations at home all day long, so he didn't care much about Pan Zhong's cultural level. Just after finishing junior high school, Pan Lun stopped going to school and began to follow his father to run business and engage in coal.

At that time, it was the initial period of Pan Zhong, Pan Lun naturally did not get any good treatment, digging coal, transporting materials, entrusting relationships, finding a way, all kinds of dirty work Pan Lun had done all kinds of dirty work, and he also suffered a lot, and helped his father a lot.

Later, the business became bigger, and Pan Lun naturally became the successor of the company and the second leader of the group.

Pan Lun was fortunate and unlucky. When he was a child, the family conditions were poor, Pan Zhong couldn't take care of him, and he had to help his father work, and he was disgraced every day. When Pan Zhong's business was on the right track, Pan Lun added younger brothers and sisters, and had a second mother and a third mother, his father's love naturally dispersed, and there was not much left on his head.

In addition, the family conditions were good at that time, Pan Zhong also began to pay attention to the education of his children, and his younger brothers and sisters studied more than Pan Lun, and even had the opportunity to go abroad for further study. If he hadn't followed his father from the beginning, doing his best and working hard, it is estimated that the status of the second leader would have been abolished by his father long ago.

Pan Lun also wanted to read more books, but he hadn't learned much since he was a child, and now he was busy with business, so he had a big head when he saw books, so he had to give up this choice. Therefore, although he is the eldest in the family, Pan Lun and his younger siblings do not have a common language.

In addition, he was extremely dissatisfied with Pan Zhong's snubbing of his mother and his mother's infidelity, so he had a bad relationship with his father's later women, so Pan Lun rarely went home, and he bought another property, except for the New Year's holidays, or to visit his mother, Pan Lun rarely appeared at home. Occasionally, in his free time, he drinks and plays cards with his friends, and does not socialize with his family.

As time goes by, Pan Zhong's feelings for Pan Lun are getting weaker and weaker, coupled with his new pillow style, he has no good impression of Pan Lun of the lower riba people, and when he fought the world, Pan Zhong always declared that Pan Lun was his successor, but then he no longer mentioned this matter, but often praised Pan Lun's younger brothers and sisters in front of his old subordinates.

It's just that the children were still young at that time, and the old people in the group could be regarded as comrades-in-arms who had eaten in the same pot as Pan Lun, so they were more supportive of Pan Lun, which was one of the reasons why Pan Zhong had never touched Pan Lun's second position.

But gradually, Pan Lun's younger brothers and sisters grew up, and Pan Zhong also began to pave the way for these descendants. He began to weaken Pan Lun's power in the group.

Although Pan Lun is still the general manager of the group, Pan Zhong asked the managers of several subsidiaries to bypass Pan Lun and report directly to him, and the financial side was also handed over to Pan Lun's younger brother. Pan Zhong explained to the outside world that "Pan Lun's younger brother is a financial major, and letting him manage the group's finances is more conducive to the development of the group than letting Pan Lun manage it", but Pan Lun knew that Pan Zhong was limiting his power.

The subsidiary no longer has to report to himself, and the group's finances have been handed over, and Pan Lun's position as general manager is already in jeopardy, but Pan Zhong still did not stop, and he stipulated through the board of directors that the work of the coal business must be carried out by the resolution of the board of directors, and also let Pan Lun's younger brothers and sisters and those little mothers meddle in the business of coal washing plants and coking plants, so that Pan Lun, the general manager, does not have a general manager's functional power except for the plaque in the manager's room.

Pan Lun originally thought that as long as he proved his ability, his father would believe in himself and reuse himself. He tried to pull the relationship, find a way, and wanted to make the group bigger and stronger in order to gain his father's trust. But as his plan was rejected by Pan Zhong again and again, and the old people of the group who supported him were excluded one by one, Pan Lun knew that his father would no longer trust him.

Pan Lun did not give up on himself, although his cultural level is not high, but after all, he has followed his father to the north and south since he was a child, and worked hard step by step. In his opinion, since his father is unwilling to hand over the group to himself, it is better to start his own business. And the ideal new career that Pan Lun thought of was Bo Cai, that is, gambling Bo.

As a businessman, Pan Lun often plays cards with friends, are family and property people, play naturally not small, a night hundreds of thousands of wins and losses are common, Pan Lun's card skills can not be said to be very smart, but after so many years, naturally not bad, because of the love of playing cards, Pan Lun also made a lot of friends who are dedicated to this way.

After Pan Lun was seized power by his father, he started his big plan to play the lottery industry without telling his family, he knew that only Jindao allowed the existence of the lottery industry in China, and there was something he could not touch, so Pan Lun found another way and opened his own casino in Manthorna.

Pan Lun does have a business mind, and with the help of his friends, the casino's business can be regarded as a sesame blossom, and Pan Lun has also made a lot of profits.

After plumping up his wings, Pan Lun does not plan to hand over the group he has worked so hard to give away, although his cronies have been suppressed, but after all, he is still the general manager of the group, and those old people in the group are also more willing to deal with Pan Lun than his younger brothers and sisters, so Pan Lun did not lose this competition, he just needed a chance.

Pan Zhong didn't know anything about all this, and he was still dreaming of spring and autumn. The group is making money day by day, the harem is full of beautiful and glamorous, Pan Lun, who he doesn't like, has also withdrawn from the circle of power, everything seems to be under his control, Pan Zhong has nothing more than to enjoy life.

It's a pity that flowers are not red for a hundred days, and people are not good for a thousand days, and Pan Zhong's happy life still ushered in a crisis. Pan Zhong's family career has been bumper, and he no longer has the passion to struggle, and the only thing that can arouse his desire is naturally gambling.

Pan Zhong is playing bigger and bigger, originally a person who earned the first pot of gold by being bolder than others, and he was even more bold in gambling, and he would fly to Jindao to play for a few days every three or five days.

The hospitality of the Golden Island did fascinate Pan Chung for a while, but then Pan Chung changed the place to play. Because he found a better place - Manthorn Jia, the casino was recommended by a young brother who is familiar with gambling in Pan Zhong, saying that it is more fun than Jindao, not only the gambling game is bigger, there are more gambling methods, but also there are well-known stars to accompany him.

Pan Zhong, a small star of all colors, has seen a lot and played a lot, but he has not tried a well-known star, and he immediately became interested. Transferred to the casino in Manthorn.

After the change, Pan Zhong found that what his little brother said was true, the casino is indeed unique, and the emperor-like enjoyment here made Pan Zhong happy, Pan Zhong lost 500 million in just one week, of course, as long as he is happy, in his opinion, as long as his cash cow does not fall, this money is a drop in the bucket for him.

But at this time, the coal industry began to cool down, environmental protection requirements also tended to be stricter, the group's revenue plummeted, and the high growth of the real estate industry also stopped, and the business of Pan's Group began to face a crisis.

At that time, Pan Zhong didn't know anything about all this, and all he thought about was the casino in Manjinga, and it was less than three months after returning to Mingnan from Manjinga that he embarked on a journey to Manjinga. And the cost of this trip is as high as a billion.

Pan Zhong lost half of the group when he lost, although it is a family business, the board of directors is just a virtual reality, but after all, everyone has to rely on this group to eat, Pan Zhong is so nonsense, everyone finally can't sit still, and they have expressed their hope that Pan Zhong will retire and stop meddling in the affairs of the group.

Pan Zhong also sold a lot of the real estate he had purchased before to fill the hole this time. Seeing that the group's revenue was declining seriously and he had lost so much money, Pan Zhong finally came to his senses, he knew that he had no face to point fingers in the group anymore, so he decided to retire, and at this time, the old people in the group also took the opportunity to ask for Pan Lun to take the position.

This series of blows crushed Pan Zhong's ambition, he did not oppose it again, not to mention that Pan Lun is also his son, although he is not as handsome as Pan Lun's younger brothers and sisters, and he reads poetry and books, but after all, blood is thicker than water, and at this time Pan Zhong knew that only Pan Lun could save the entire group in danger, so Pan Zhong did not pay attention to the opposition of several little wives and handed over the power back to Pan Lun.

What Pan Chung didn't know was that the casino full of thorns was actually Pan Lun's, and the money he lost also went into Pan Lun's pocket, and all of this was just a game for Pan Lun.

Pan Lun finally got the power of the group and became the de facto controller. However, Pan Lun's controller is not easy to be, because he did not calculate that the coal industry will decline so much, in the past, those customers in order to get coal are all nodding and bowing, low three or four, the group's coal mines, coking plants These businesses are all in the market, and the carts pulling goods are more than ten miles in line.

But by the time Pan Lun took over, these industries were deserted, and the number of trucks that came to pull goods was only twenty or thirty a day. Pan Lun thought that those little mothers didn't know how to do business, offended customers, and ruined the good family business. But after in-depth understanding, Pan Lun found that his mother and younger siblings did not understand the market and offended some customers, but the more critical reason was that the coal economy was already in a downward trend. In other words, the family business that Pan Lun had only managed to obtain was now a mess.

Pan Lun naturally knows that the coal industry is a cyclical industry, and there are highs and lows, but if the trough at this time cannot be survived, there will be no climax, so the most important thing for Pan Lun at the moment is to stabilize the morale of the army, stabilize the enterprise, find the way of transformation, and not die in the trough.

At this time, Pan Lun was very helpless, he had worked hard for so long to take over such a big mess, he would inevitably fall if he was content with the status quo, he wanted to transform but couldn't find the direction, and there were still so many mouths waiting to open his mouth to eat every day, but at this time, the group was in decline because of Pan Zhong's previous actions, and even some businesses suffered losses.

Pan Lun also thought about stopping some of the group's businesses and laying off some employees, but he also knew that once he showed fatigue, the bank would definitely be the first to know and would immediately stop the group's loans, so that the group would only die faster.

More importantly, Pan Lun knows that many of the businesses of the Pan Group are not so formal, and they are all obtained by pulling connections and finding ways to win by tricks.

Once the group's backers are gone, if someone makes a big fuss and touches the government, his whole family may be imprisoned after a strict investigation, which is unacceptable to Pan Lun, so Pan Lun can't and doesn't dare to let the group show the slightest fatigue.

Pan Lun also thought about expanding the casino business to make up for the group's losses, but because of the capital control, he could not transfer a large number of funds out of the country to develop his own gambling business, nor could he transfer the funds back to fill the group's deficit, at this time Pan Lun was in a dilemma, there was no good way to solve the problem.

On the one hand, he could only conceal the true situation of the group, let his partners believe that the Pan Group was still strong, and the changes in the general environment had not affected the operation of the group, and on the other hand, he tried to find an industry that could be transformed or a way for his business to freely pass through domestic and foreign funds.

Pan Lun believes that there is no endless way, he feels that he has paid too much for the Pan Group, and he is unwilling to admit defeat so easily after working hard for so many years to get the Pan Group.

Pan Lun's idea was right, and soon he found a perfect path, and at this time, Lady Luck was still on Pan Lun's side.
