Chapter Ninety-Five: Into a Predicament

I already knew her terms last night, and I came here today to talk about it in order to get her to make concessions.

"I know, that's why I came to talk to you. I said.

"Agree to get involved?" she asked.

"Agree to get involved in part. I took out a document and handed it to her and said, "This is the condition on our side, don't worry, I can call the shots." ”

I gave her a very generous condition, she gave up part of the management rights, and I increased the dividend ratio to them.

Liu Mingyue wanted to refuse directly, but after she saw the conditions, she frowned and said with a smile: "I can't be the master of this, I need to ask my father." ”

"No problem, but be quick, I'm short on time. I said.

Now I don't have to look for allies, because I have found new allies some time ago, but they are still in the run-in period, and I need to make more preparations.

The negotiations went smoothly and were completed within half an hour.

I went back to the company and arranged for the domestic PR team to get ready and nip all the bad news for KB in the bud.

In the past two or three days, I have been busy day and night.

My phone is a good way to circumvent the wall, so whenever I have free time, I immediately turn on the news from the US side.

What I didn't expect was that Si Jianlian made a move. He released the paternity test report, and at the same time stated that he had severed his relationship with Sheng Qingjin.

I slammed the steering wheel, and in public relations, Si Jianlian will always be that pig teammate, helping each other at critical times every time.

I think of the psychology courses I took when we were in college, and there were some very classic testers at that time, and I did them for Si Jianlian. As a result, he is 100 percent fit for research.

Now it seems that although after several years of polishing in the mall, the things in the bones have not changed.

We only have offices in the United States, and the people in the PR team are not there. Therefore, public opinion at home is almost controlled, but abroad it is like herding sheep.

Gandhi is our majority shareholder, but they have invested in hundreds of projects, and KB is doing well, but it is not the largest project in Gandhi's hands, so shareholders are not obligated to help you solve these kinds of problems.

It's just that Jim's phone calls came many times like a talisman.

Finally, he said, "Tao Ran, I'm sorry to inform you of one thing. ”

My heart tightened.

I have been following the stock price of KB NASDAQ for the past two days, and now KB has depreciated by 30% because of the collapse of Si Jianlian's beloved wife.

This is the bottom line of Gandhi's investment.

"If within a week, KB has not controlled its share price, Gandhi Investments will decide to withdraw its capital. We had an agreement at the beginning of the partnership that if we decide to divest our capital, you need to have the funds ready within three months to complete the share buyback. Jim said.

This is exactly what I expected.

Once again, I fell victim to Murphy's Law.

I sighed, and the big rock hanging over my head slammed down.

"I'll try to control as much as possible, and if there is any new movement during this week, please inform me for the sake of personal relations. I said.

"This is no problem, you can ask Si Jianlian to come over and try it, maybe you really remarry, or come to the United States to register your marriage, and the two of you come forward at the same time to develop a conference to clarify this issue. Actually, it's not a difficult problem to solve. At today's meeting, some people at the meeting were saying that they didn't understand where you were and why you refused to get back together for the sake of money. Jim said helplessly.

"You know my situation, what would you do if you and I were in another position?" I asked him.

At the moment, I'm a little lost.

"Men and women have different brain structures, and there is no way to assume that. But......" he hesitated for a moment, then laughed, "if the board heard my suggestion, it would probably kick me to death." ”

He laughed twice more and said, "I, like you, would rather not have money than forgive a person who betrayed him." ”

"Thank you for being so positive. I said.

But he said, "By the way, if we want to withdraw in a week, I will be the representative who will go to China." When the time comes, drink with me. Besides......" he paused and said, "is your friend named Ji'an too busy lately and keeps calling her, but she doesn't answer." ”

The Yankees' directness is really hateful. I haven't even reached the day when I need to buy back the share capital, and he is ready to assume that day.

"She's busy, and she's about to register her marriage. I said.

"Oh, she's not married!" Jim exclaimed on the phone, and immediately said, "I'll fly over tomorrow." ”

"What are you doing here?" I asked as I heard his eager tone.

"Propose to her, I'm in love with her, and if I don't get her, I'll die. "Jim is exaggerating.

"She won't love you. I analyzed calmly, "If you come, you will be even more disappointed to go, but it is better to keep the good in your heart." ”

Just now he threw cold water on me, and now it's time for revenge.

"As long as she's not married, I'll have a chance, so I'm not going to give up this opportunity. Jim finished and hung up.

I kept calling Si Jianlian for a second.

As soon as the phone was connected, I scolded unceremoniously: "Si Jianlian, are you in the water in your brain?

This is the first time since the divorce that I have not said anything to him. I thought he would be angry, after all, he has nothing to do with me now. Unexpectedly, he actually laughed, and there was a smile hidden in his voice.

"If you are willing to scold me, it means that you are still willing to help me, so I am a little happy. Si Jianlian said unabashedly.

"I'm not helping you, I'm helping myself. If I could have thought of taking over KB and taking over such a big mess, I absolutely only want money, and I don't want to have anything to do with you. "I'm categorical.

"Gu Yixiao came to the United States, I saw him yesterday. And coincidentally, he was with Sheng Qingjin. Si Jianlian asked, "Don't you think it's strange? What is the intersection between the two of them? Have you thought about it, when did Gu Yixiao's initiative with you start?"

He poured a basin of ice water over my face.

"He went to know that the other case had nothing to do with it. Don't bother with it. "I just had a little bad thought about Gu Yixiao, and my chest felt stuffy, and I didn't want to lose my temper in front of Si Jianlian, so I got it back from my words.

Si Jianlian sneered twice and said, "Okay, then you wait for me to find out and show you." Tao Ran, although you have been in the mall for so many years, you are a woman in your bones, and the kindness of a woman can never be changed. ”

"Yes, if I could change it, I wouldn't show you any mercy. I scolded him.

The conversation on the phone broke up unhappily, and he and I really wore out all our feelings.

While KB's stock price has been falling continuously, the 5G project has made a new breakthrough. I received a call from the lab over there, and I felt a beam of light shining through the Heavenly Spirit Cover. This time it was a real sigh of relief. Putting down the phone, I didn't have time to catch my breath and immediately recruited someone from the PR team to the conference room. At the same time, the relevant materials transmitted from the United States were directed to the people of the translation team, so that they could quickly produce a Chinese material.

Looking at the employees who have worked overtime for many days in a row, I feel very distressed. Each person sent out a copy of the information, talked about the key points of the propaganda, and asked them to complete the propaganda within an hour. I asked to see this news on the front page early tomorrow morning.

As soon as the focus was said and the video conference was completed, we had a joint meeting with the PR team that had just been sent to the United States to decide on the propaganda strategy.

This time, it was finally able to stop the fall.

This is the latest 5G technology, technically speaking, better than a certain company in the United States, at least more than 30% optimized.

An hour later, the long-term member of the PR team came to my office. I looked up and saw that something was wrong with his face, so I hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Has the plan come out? Have the major media said hello? Can you make the front page headlines in all the newspapers tomorrow morning?"

"The plan has been decided, and all major media have also been notified. It's just that the time has to be scheduled until the day after tomorrow. Yang Shiqing, the leader of the public relations team, said.

"No, it has to be tomorrow. I said.

"Tomorrow's front page is now set, and it's hard to change. Yang Shiqing's voice was a little small.

I asked him to go out first, called the personnel person to come over, and gave me a copy of Yang Shiqing's resume. I saw that he was recommended by Yang Suqi, and it seemed that he was Yang Suqi's nephew.

It seems that in recent years, the company has not entered a lot of related households.

How does a person who can't even make a temporary headline become the head of the public relations team?

I weighed it in my heart, called Yang Suqi, briefly explained the situation, and then asked: "Mr. Yang, are you going to settle this matter?" Or should I find someone to settle it?"

Yang Suqi knew that I was deliberately giving him face, and said with a smile: "I'll come, I'll come, this kid doesn't know what's going on recently, and none of his work has been done well." In the future, if something happens to him again, it will be counted on my head. ”

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news. "I hung up.

Since someone is willing to take responsibility for him, I will give him another chance.

KB is headquartered in Beijing, and its PR is much easier than in the United States. The headlines here were settled, and the calls from the United States came in again.

There was a problem with the media, not to mention the headlines of the second day, not even the third and fourth days.

Our forces there are too weak.

I thought about it, thought of Jim, called him on his phone, and it was always off. I thought about it for a moment, and he was probably on a plane to China.

Besides, who can I find?

Schoolmate.

I pulled all my classmates from beginning to end, and none of them worked in the media.

"Use all your connections to solve this problem, whether it is money, people or things, as long as you ask for it, the head office will support it immediately. Get a headline and get a prize of 100,000. You can take responsibility for people. I said.

Now the situation can only be like this.

In the evening, I watched as KB's stock price fell by six points, thirteen points above Gandhi's investment warning line.

Tomorrow, if the decline does not stop, I will receive a formal request to buy back the day after tomorrow.

It was almost dawn that I was a little dazed.

When I arrived at the office at eight o'clock in the morning, the first thing I saw was Jim.
