Two days later, Su Lei and others completed an independent investigation of Shunfa Aluminum's loan project.

The results of this investigation are not ideal, which is also expected by Su Lei, Tianma Group's overall external debt is nearly 10 billion, and in the past few years, under the intervention of the government, it has helped several other large enterprises to bear debts and acquire a large number of non-performing assets, but the operation of these non-performing enterprises has not been improved, resulting in the continuous deterioration of Tianma Group's operation in the past few years.

However, Su Lei is not Wang Chong, he does not have the courage of Wang Chong to confront the world, especially this loan is instructed by the higher authorities, Wang Chong said that all the problems will be exposed, Su Lei also followed the principle of due diligence and exemption when writing the investigation report, and objectively responded to the problem.

That night, Qi Zhongyuan and his son set up a banquet to entertain the project team in a private club, Su Lei originally felt strange, what kind of identity Qi Zhongyuan was, how could he entertain a branch department head, when everyone was seated, Su Lei found that there were still three empty seats on the entire round table, and there were obviously other guests.

After a while, I heard someone outside the door saying, "Chairman Qi, I'm sorry, we're late." ”

Su Lei and others looked at it, it was Vice President Li Youtian and Liu Jianguo, and the entire project team saw the arrival of the senior executives of Donghua Bank, and quickly stood up and said: "Hello President Li, Hello President Liu." ”

Qi Zhongyuan said: "The two presidents are busy people, and being able to come to me as a guest really makes our house shine." ”

Liu Jianguo said with a smile, "If Chairman Qi is all Pengshu here, then wouldn't our entire Donghua City live in a pigsty?"

The crowd laughed.

In the whole banquet, Qi Zhongyuan was the main escort, Qi Beiwang was the deputy escort, and Zhao Xiaocheng was the third escort.

Qi Zhongyuan guided the two to sit in the position of deputy guest and third guest, Li Youtian was ranked higher than Liu Jianguo in Donghua Bank, and Liu Jianguo was in a longer grade, the two resigned to each other for a long time, and finally Liu Jianguo sat in the deputy guest position on the left side of Qi Zhongyuan, "Then I'm not welcome, brother." ”

Su Lei glanced at the empty seat of the guest of honor, thinking that there would definitely be important guests arriving in a while, but he didn't know which leader it was, it wouldn't be President Lin.

Qi Zhongyuan did not wait for the guest of honor to be in place, and directly started the banquet.

The dishes are relatively simple, the portions are not large, but they are very delicately cooked. Twelve people served a total of six meat, eight vegetarian dishes and 14 dishes. At the age of Qi Zhongyuan and Liu Jianguo, they rarely pursue that kind of expensive and unreal things, and pay more attention to the quality of ingredients.

Qi Zhongyuan said: "This chicken soup mushroom pot uses wild mountain mushrooms from the deep mountains and old forests of Changbai Mountain, with ginseng, cordyceps, plus twelve kinds of precious medicinal materials, with pheasants hunted in Donghua Mountain, boiled for five hours, everyone comes to taste how it tastes." ”

Liu Jianguo said: "If you want to talk about food, I'm afraid that the entire Donghua City can't find an expert like Old Man Qi." “

Qi Zhongyuan said, "I remember that in the fifth or ninth year, I was only seven years old, I remember that the whole village could not eat, the wild vegetables in the village were dug up, and even the bark of the elm tree was gnawed to the ground. Ha ha. ”

Zhang Feifei asked, "Can you eat elm bark?"

Qi Zhongyuan said, "People are hungry to the extreme, there is nothing that cannot be eaten, you are your age, you have caught up with a good time, you have not experienced that kind of era, now look at yourself, you are old." ”

Zhao Xiaocheng said, "The chairman is old and strong." ”

Qi Zhongyuan feigned anger and said, "If you people do everything with snacks, I should be holding my grandson for a long time at my age!"

Zhao Xiaocheng said, "Then it's up to the president." ”

Qi Zhongyuan's family was poor when he was young, and he couldn't marry a daughter-in-law, and he didn't marry the daughter of a butcher in a neighboring village until he was in his thirties.

Li Youtian said: "Qi Gongzi is young and promising, and he has taken care of the Tianma Group in an orderly manner at a young age, and he is also a dragon and phoenix among people." ”

Although Qi Zhongyuan knew what his son was, when he heard the praise from outsiders, he was still proud in his heart, and he picked up his wine glass and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this guy." On behalf of Tianma Group, I would like to thank President Jianguo, President Youtian, and the brothers of the entire project team, who have worked hard and worked hard for our Tianma Group during this time. ”

Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.

"This second wine is please wine. Our Shunfa Aluminum project may have some minor flaws in the business, and we have to ask the two presidents and the managers here to bear with us. ”

Liu Jianguo said to Su Lei and others: "Banks, what they operate is risk, where is there a perfect enterprise in the world, and who guarantees that the loans issued are 100% risk-free? The key is to control risks, discover risks in time, and take effective measures to avoid risks, which is what the account manager should do." ”

At this time, I heard someone outside the door: "What is so forgiving?"

Before the words fell, a middle-aged man walked out of the door, and everyone present looked at it and stood up one after another, "Hello Mayor Li!"

The person who came was Li Yongjun, the deputy mayor in charge of economy and finance in Donghua City, Li Yongjun waved his hand, motioned for everyone to sit down, and said to Qi Zhongyuan, "Old Qi, I'm really sorry, I'm late to report to the secretary today." Forgive me!"

Qi Zhongyuan said with a smile, "Mayor Li can come to appreciate the light, it is already to give me face, where can I blame you?"

Li Yongjun glanced at everyone, frowned, and said, "Why didn't Lin Tianhua come?"

Liu Jianguo and Li Youtian did not expect that Qi Zhongyuan invited the deputy mayor to invite him tonight, although they are the vice presidents of Donghua Bank, but they are a big difference with Li Yongjun in terms of rank, according to the principle of equal rank, this banquet today, at least the chairman and President Lin are in line with each other's identities.

Qi Zhongyuan said: "President Lin has something at home, and he can't come, so he asked me to ask Mayor Li for leave." Mayor Li, please take your seat. ”

Li Yongjun sighed and said, "Don't be busy, I'll have a meeting later, I'm late, bring a drink, please feel free." As he spoke, he picked up his glass and took a sip.

Where did everyone dare to slack off, they filled the cup with wine and drank it all.

Li Yongjun Qi Zhongyuan said, "I still have something to do, so I won't stay long." ”

Qi Zhongyuan nodded again and again, and Li Yongjun said to Donghua Bank, "I am entrusted by the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to thank your bank for supporting Tianma Group and supporting the development of the real economy of Donghua City. Remember, the economic situation is not very good now, the financial sector requires stability, and the society also requires stability, Secretary Tian has stressed more than once that under the severe situation, the financial sector should be in close contact with enterprises to help them tide over difficulties. After a pause, he added: "This is a political task. ”

Liu Jianguo hurriedly said: "Please rest assured Mayor Li, we will definitely live up to the leader's entrustment." ”

Qi Zhongyuan invited Mayor Li to stand for him today, although he only made a simple appearance, although he did not say it explicitly, but the signal released was already obvious, that is, this loan must be approved. Even Su Lei couldn't help but wonder if he should go back and revise the investigation report.

Li Yongjun said: "Okay, you continue, I'll leave first." Everyone got up to send each other, Li Yongjun waved his hand, Qi Zhongyuan personally went out to send people away, and after a while, Qi Zhongyuan came back and said, "Okay, my body can't bear it, you young people drink more, don't be restrained." He also left the banquet.

As soon as the two left, Qi Beiwang sat in the main escort seat, Zhao Xiaocheng changed to the deputy escort, and the waiter changed to new tableware. Qi Beiwang said, "There are so many seats, they can't all be empty, Xiaocheng will arrange it." ”

Zhao Xiaocheng went out to make a phone call, and a few minutes later, three or four beauties came to the financing department and joined the wine table, Zhang Feifei recognized that one of them was named Liu Xiao, who also went to the Chengdong branch with Zhao Xiaocheng last time.

Without the restraint of Qi Zhongyuan, everyone drank happily until more than nine o'clock. Liu Jianguo, Li Youtian, Qi Beiwang and others said goodbye first, and Zhao Xiaocheng took the project team to KTV to sing until more than one o'clock in the morning.

The next day, the investigation report that had been polished by Su Lei was reported. On the same day, Wang Chong put forward three conditions for this loan, and the matter of Chairman Qi Zhongyuan assuming unlimited joint and several guarantee liability was not over.

However, in two or three days, he successively passed the loan review meeting of the branch and the loan review meeting of the head office, and sent it to Lin Tianhua's desk. According to the rules of procedure of the loan review meeting, the president has a veto power, and whether the loan is released or not depends on whether Lin Tianhua exercises the veto power.

This made Lin Tianhua a headache, originally asked Wang Chong to do this business, with Wang Chong's temperament, this loan could not be reported so quickly, but Wang Chong was suspended for investigation, so all the pressure was concentrated on him, Tianma Group has entrusted several groups of people to come to Lin Tianhua to talk about the item, which makes Lin Tianhua very embarrassed. On the one hand, he also knows that Tianma Group is not doing well now, and it may cause bad results if it is released. On the other hand, the leaders of the city government pressed him with the hat of stressing politics, party spirit, and taking the overall situation into account, which made him upset.

He took a cursory look at the loan application materials and the resolution of the loan review committee, and asked, "Secretary Li, have the results of Wang Chong's investigation come out?"

Secretary Li said: "I asked in the morning, and the discipline inspection office is still working on it, saying that it wants to verify some details." ”

Lin Tianhua said angrily: "What are you eating, such a thing, it's been a week, and it hasn't been done yet?"

Secretary Li had no choice but to say, "I'll go and urge it." ”

Lin Tianhua dialed Wang Chong's phone, and Wang Chong said on the other side of the phone: "President Lin!"

"What are you doing?"

Wang Chong replied, "I'm shopping with my friends." ”

"What do you do during work hours?"

"President, I'm suspended now. ”

Wang Chong said angrily: "Stop what's the bird job, hurry up and roll over for me." Thirty minutes to you. ”

Wang Chong said: "Lin Xing, I'm in the eastern district of the city." ”

Lin Tianhua said: "Fifteen minutes! Otherwise, don't come to work." ”
