Six hundred million

This was something I couldn't even think about before. But now, I'm going to have to raise that money in one night. When I graduated last year, I had an after-tax salary of 8,000 a month at IU, and it would take me 6,250 years to earn that money if I didn't eat or drink. And now, I'm going to raise so much in one night. I'm sitting in the office. It was difficult, but I wasn't flustered. Because Bailu Financial is not my own company, it has 25 shareholders and investors, and more than 400 employees. So. I was always convinced that I would be able to raise so much money before dawn. Because, I'm not fighting alone.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, the company was brightly lit and the phone calls were endless, and almost everyone attached great importance to the problem of breaking the capital chain. At this time, in the conference room, a shareholders' meeting was being held. This shareholders' meeting was the most attended by Bailu Financial in its history, and almost all the representatives and shareholders of the capital were present.

The atmosphere of the meeting was very heavy, and everyone kept their heads down and thought thoughtfully. As the representative of Chen Bailu's shares, I sat at the end of the conference table. The company's head of operations is standing and talking to all the shareholders present, and in his words, the company has now reached the edge of the cliff, with light and future on the other side, and darkness and abyss at its feet. After he finished speaking. The shareholders present expressed their opinions. Some of the representatives of the management immediately said that they would immediately stop the user bounty action, and after filling the financial loopholes, they would sell the company's shares or sell the company to other organizations for liquidation and settlement. Listening to the meaning of his words, they thought that Bailu Finance was at the end of the road and there was no hope, and they were ready to liquidate and run away

In the face of this very angry representative of the management side, no one present spoke. He himself is a conservative in the company, and it was he who stopped Qin Hongling from posthumously giving users bounties in the first place. This gave Ruoxiong Capital half a month's development gap, otherwise Ruoxiong Capital would have todayAfter he finished speaking, I immediately stood up and said: "I unilaterally agree with your decision." Later, when the company comes to a better time, it will liquidate the shares for you. With that, I turned my head to look at Minister Xiao of the Ministry of Justice and asked him to draft a share cession contract. The management representative signed the contract and left. How much money he paid to buy the shares, the company recovered the original price.

I was very calm and plain, and I couldn't see any flaws on the surface, and the face of this management representative was not good-looking. Minister Xiao drafted a simple contract of intent, we signed the contract on the spot, and then the man left in a huff. After the man left, I looked around the room again with a grim gaze. This time, no one said stop user bounties anymore, but instead looked at me with hope in their eyes, as if I already had a way to raise funds. But as a result, I still couldn't do anything. The most important reason why I let the representative of the management side leave was to stabilize the morale of the military. At any time, there are always frustrated people in the team, and these people often do not play a role but create unnecessary panic, and there is no need to show any mercy when facing such people. This is what Chen Bailu told me, and at that time I felt that all this was far away from me, but I didn't expect that it was only a few months before I applied it to reality.

In the end, the meeting came out with only one outcome. That is, if there is no money to transfer to the user at six o'clock the next morning, then honestly tell the user that the company's capital chain is in short supply, but as long as the company raises money, it will immediately deal with all transaction records. This is the next step in the next policy, and it must not be used until the last resort, but this is also the only way back for ourselves.

At the end of the meeting, Qin Hongling followed me back to my office. She was indignant for me, saying that the management representative was really saying that kind of frustrating thing at this time.

I smiled softly and didn't go on the subject. Instead, he picked up the phone on the table and contacted the financial bigwigs on the directory again. Even though it was already twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, many of them had already fallen asleep, and it was not good to contact them at this time. But I have no choice but to do this, and if I can't reach them, I'll text them. When the crazy girl saw that I was busy, she stuck out her tongue and walked away.

It was busy until two o'clock in the middle of the night, and I had almost contacted the people on the list. It's almost impossible to reach anyone after 12 o'clock, and the texters will definitely not be back until tomorrow morning, so we're going to have a credit crisis tomorrow morning. I breathe a sigh of relief at the thought of this. Take out a pen and paper and prepare to draft an apology letter and implement the next steps discussed at the meeting.

No sooner had the apology letter been drafted than the crazy barged in again. She held a bowl of chicken soup and rice noodles, and said with a smile on her face: "You haven't eaten much this day, I bought it for you nearby." ”

I looked at her and smiled.

Eating the hot rice noodles she brought me, I was still thinking about how to write an apology letter. This girl found this beginning drafted on my desk, picked it up and looked at it and asked me with some disappointment, is there really no way I ate rice noodles and nodded. She was a little embarrassed on her face, and after hesitating for a moment, she said, no matter how this apology letter is written, as long as it is released, it will prove that we have completely lost to Ruoxiong Capital, you have to think about it

I drank the soup and said vaguely that a total of 10 million funds had been raised in the past two days, and the gap was too big to raise this night, so let's do it. It's not that hard to make a comeback, I forcibly comforted myself with a bitter smile on my face.

The expression on this girl's face was stiff, and she froze in place and did not speak. After a while, the girl said to me, "Then I'll draft it for you." As she spoke, she took the pen and lay down on the table to write. I looked at her in a daze, and then ignored her and continued to eat rice noodles. After eating, I sat next to her and watched her write an apology letter.

"You can't write like this, you have to be honest, you can't say that there is a problem with our funds, but that the capital chain is broken. ”

"It's the broken capital chain, not the shortage of funds. ”

"Our company still has users, and the valuation is two or three billion, but there is no money in the account, which does not mean that the company is worthless. ”

"Eh, what are you writing this? ”

"If you force it again, I'll stab you to death with a pen" I was in a hurry, this girl said to me viciously.

But within five minutes, I coughed lightly and hesitated, "Can you not use the word heavy, we are not bankrupt yet, not heavy"

Click, and the ballpoint pen poked at me. I screamed, and all my drowsiness was gone

In this way, the letter of apology was written until more than four o'clock in the morning, and both of us were satisfied. In order to show the high level, we also translated this letter into English, in Chinese and English in duplicate.

After the translation was over, it was just after five o'clock. It was bright outside, and the girl yawned and said to me Go out and have some food, I nodded, thinking that when this apology letter was released in the morning, I would face a storm, and now that the rain has not yet come, I would enjoy this moment of silence.

I drove the girl to a crab roe xiaolongbao shop for breakfast, and it was just half past five after breakfast.

When she came out of the shop, the girl looked at the gray sky and said to me, let's go for a walk, don't go back yet.

I nodded, and walked with her through the streets of Shanghai in early summer.

Walking in silence, neither of us paid attention to the other.

After a while, she suddenly said to me, "You go home."

I looked at her in a daze and asked her, "Then how are you going back to the company?"

She flattened her mouth and said, "Mr. Chen definitely wants to see you now." ”

"How do you know"

"Stinky stupid, the old lady is HR, naturally knows everything"

"Fuck you, uncle. ”

"Yo, you dare to fight back, you want to eat."

"Feed me"

"It's disgusting. ”

I don't know why, the two of us tend to spit dirty words without saying a word, scolding without scruples and even a little disgusting. After scolding each other for a while, this girl told me the reason, and she said to me seriously: "In the days when you were lost, Mr. Chen told me that she could do without anything in her life, but she just couldn't live without you." I asked her in surprise, you have only known each other for half a year, are the feelings so heavy Mr. Chen said that you don't understand, I said I don't understand something, Mr. Chen smiled and didn't speak. ”

Saying that, this girl gave me a punch and said: "You must be good to Mr. Chen"

I didn't know why, but the girl urged me to go home, so I had to drive back. I didn't know that after I drove away, the girl let out a sigh of relief and smiled at herself, very bitter. She clearly remembered that Chen Bailu said to her at that time, I thought that my life would be ruined at the wedding with Chen Ruoxiong, and in the days before the wedding, I felt that there was no hope in life, and every day was like a year. On the day of the wedding, I looked at all the guests, and I wished that someone would come and take me away from this great shackle, and take me out of this irritable world, and at this time, the moment he came, I knew that she was the most important person in my life

Qin Hongling squatted on the ground, watching the sun slowly rise, the bitterness on her face gradually turned into a smile, only she and I knew that without her encouragement and companionship, it would have been impossible for me to go to Beijing in the first place, let alone get Chen Bailu's sincerity

I arrived home at six o'clock in the morning, Chen Bailu had not slept when I got home, and she didn't ask anything when she saw me come back, but looked at me Yingying. I sat at the head of the bed and spent half an hour with her, during which I talked to her about the future of my children, and half an hour later I left home to go to work. Before leaving, Chen Bailu, who was lying on the bed, called me, I turned my head to look at her, and she said to me, "Come on"

I smiled at her and gave her a cheerful smile.

This smile on my face, all the way to the stiffness.

At 6:48 in the morning, sitting in the office and watching the clock move slowly, it will be the cut-off point of the final honest payment in ten minutes, and the final terminal in another three hours, and then six hours later, when the apology letter is released, Bailu Finance will leap from the most awesome P2P financial software to the scum garbage that everyone dislikes, and become the target of all people's criticism.

All of this will be turned upside down.

And we will be the biggest losers in this money-burning war.

As a loser, all our efforts will be in vain.

I know that in the half hour at home in the morning, Chen Bailu wanted to comfort me, but she knew that companionship was the greatest comfort. Perhaps, I lost a mess in the company, but at least I still have a home to return to, with her and my parents at home

The smile on my face is no longer stiff, but truly refreshing. Remember to be in a daze.

There is no joy in life, and there is no pain in death.

Failure is always an adjective.
