Chapter 741: A Man Who Gets Used to Walking a Tightrope
After appeasing Jin Ling'er, Xu Haoran, Xu Haonan, Xu Meng, and only took a personal brother to Dalang Chuanyun Villa.
When he arrived at the villa, Xu Haoran did not delay for a moment, and went directly to the arranged business hall.
Walking into the business hall, Xu Haoran saw Lu Mingxin from afar, Lu Mingxin has changed a lot in the past two years, because of the decline of the Lu Group, there are obviously more wrinkles, and he is not as cheerful as before.
When Lu Mingxin saw Xu Haoran, he quickly stood up and greeted with a smile: "Brother Ran, long time no see." ”
In the past, Lu Mingxin was superior in front of Xu Haoran, but now, he had to change his name and call him Brother Ran.
And the tone is also very different, obviously with a more respectful component.
Xu Haoran said with a smile: "Mr. Lu doesn't have to be restrained, please take a seat." ”
Lu Mingxin smiled: "Thank you, Brother Ran." He sat down immediately.
Xu Haoran took out a box of cigarettes, the Son of Heaven, a box of 100 yuan, his current economic strength, he can afford to smoke cigars casually, but he only likes cigarettes, especially the brand of the Son of Heaven.
The reason is that when he was still very poor, he could only smoke cheap cigarettes for five yuan, and he was very envious when he saw others smoking the Son of Heaven, this mentality lasted for a long time, and it also caused him to have a special feeling for the Son of Heaven.
Xu Haoran shook out two and handed one to Lu Mingxin, Lu Mingxin frowned slightly, in terms of his value, smoking this brand of cigarettes has been slightly downgraded, but Xu Haoran sent it, he couldn't help but take it, he took the cigarette with a smile, lit it and smoked it, and said with a smile: "Brother Ran's preferences haven't changed, and I still like to smoke this brand of cigarettes." ”
Xu Haoran said with a smile: "I'm used to smoking, and I'm not used to other things." Mr. Lu, let's get down to business, this time I asked Mr. Lu to meet, in fact, I wanted to talk about the shares in Mr. Lu's hands. ”
Lu Mingxin smiled: "What are the shares in my hand? To be honest, I don't really want to sell them." ”
Xu Haoran said: "Why? I heard that the Lu Group suffered a loss in the first half of the year, and now it is no longer profitable. ”
Lu Mingxin said: "This is only temporary, I believe that after the adjustment, we will be able to get on the right track and achieve profitability again." Moreover, Lu's Group was founded by our three brothers, which has special significance for us. ”
Xu Haoran knows Lu Mingxin's personality, and any feelings are to him, this guy was mercenary back then, and he saw the wind and steered the rudder, and now he doesn't have any ethics, the reason why he said this is mostly because he wants to sell it for a good price.
Xu Haoran's heart was bright, but he didn't break it, and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, but it's difficult to do." Now the Lu Group is at the helm of Lu Wenyuan, I know a little about him, he has no ability, but he is so happy, as long as the Lu Group is still in charge, with all due respect, it is difficult to reverse the current decline. ”
Lu Mingxin said with a smile: "Brother Ran's words are the same as I thought, so we are already thinking about changing the chairman and reorganizing." ”
Xu Haoran said: "Lu Wenyuan will agree?"
Lu Mingxin smiled: "I can't help but disagree." ”
Xu Haoran said: "Even if Lu Wenyuan is removed, then who will be at the helm? Are you still your second brother Mr. Lu Minghan Lu?"
Lu Mingxin was stunned, what Xu Haoran said was exactly the doubt in his heart, even if Lu Wenyuan was removed, there was still Lu Minghan in charge of the Lu Group, and it would not be his turn.
Lu Mingxin smiled and said, "No matter who it is, it will be better than now?"
Xu Haoran said with a smile: "Forgive me for telling the truth, that's not necessarily, I have seen many well-known large enterprises in Daliang, some of them are growing very fast, and they are extremely beautiful at their peak, but once there is a problem, it is difficult to reverse the decline, and even collapse, until finally they are burdened with huge debts and declare bankruptcy." ”
Lu Mingxin said with a smile: "Lu's Group shouldn't be like this, our Lu's Group franchises hotels, even now, in the hotel industry is still in a leading position in the country." ”
Xu Haoran said: "I know that I don't believe Mr. Lu, but Mr. Lu can go back and refer to a large number of large group companies that are famous in our history, and study the history of their rise and demise, and understand that I am by no means alarmist." After a pause, he continued: "According to an authoritative research report, few companies in Daliang have survived for more than five years, and even if they have survived for more than five years, they are very few. ”
Lu Mingxin smiled: "Really, I really want to take a good look when I go back." ”
Xu Haoran knew that if he wanted to buy Lu Mingxin's shares, it would not be possible to do it overnight, so he couldn't be in a hurry, so he was in a hurry, and said: "Mr. Lu can think about it, it's rare to come today, why don't you play in the villa?"
Lu Mingxin smiled: "Okay, I haven't relaxed for a long time recently." ”
Then Xu Haoran and Lu Mingxin went to the gambling hall, although Xu Haoran's gambling hall has not obtained a legal license, but it is gradually moving towards regularization, there are many advanced equipment to prevent thousands of dollars, and the lending business is also transparent and open, and the interest rate is much lower than before, but if you meet some people who want to repay the debt, violent collection can not be avoided.
Lu Mingxin played in it for a while, and praised it in a slightly sycophantic tone, saying that Lu Mingtao's eyes were like torches, and the current villa was indeed better than he imagined, and the cooperation between Lu Mingtao and Xu Haoran was a wise decision, but unfortunately Lu Mingtao passed away, which also led to the interruption of cooperation with Xu Haoran.
Xu Haoran said with a smile that he also missed the days of cooperation with the Lu Group, but what happened later made him unexpected.
Lu Mingxin counted Lu Wenyuan and Mrs. Lu on the spot, saying that without the two of them, now the Lu Group and Xu Haoran should be the closest cooperative relationship.
After staying with Lu Mingxin for a few hours and sending Lu Mingxin away, Xu Haonan asked Xu Haoran: "Brother, do you think he will sell the shares of the Lu Group in the end?"
Xu Haoran smiled slightly and said with great certainty: "He will definitely sell, there is no doubt about it." The Lu Group has already suffered losses, if the losses cannot be reversed in a short period of time, then the losses will only get bigger and bigger, and the debts will get bigger and bigger, falling into a vicious circle, until they can't bear it and declare bankruptcy, then Lu Mingxin will have nothing to lose, with his character, where will he really die with the Lu Group? Of course, it is better to go ashore early. ”
Xu Meng said: "But he just said that he didn't want to sell it." ”
Xu Haoran said with a smile: "This is his strategy, if you want to sell it at a good price, you must not easily show a posture of being in a hurry to get rid of it." Think about it, if he really opposes the sale of shares, how can he meet with me?"
Xu Haonan and Xu Meng understood, and they both smiled: "It's still my brother's eyes like a torch." ”
It is by no means easy to win such a large company as Lu's Group, so Xu Haoran is not in a hurry, the first meeting with Lu Mingxin is just a temptation, and it takes a certain amount of patience to get Lu Mingxin's shares.
Lu Mingxin has little hope of competing for the head of the Lu Group, so it is relatively easy to win, but Lu Minghan has a good chance to become the new head of the Lu Group, and the difficulty is not much more.
Xu Haoran immediately instructed Xu Haonan to continue to contact Lu Minghan and collect information about the Lu Group.
When she returned home at night, after Jin Linger coaxed the child to sleep, she asked how the progress was today.
Xu Haoran told Jin Linger that Lu Mingxin still didn't agree for the time being, but he had great hopes.
Jin Ling'er said: "If it's too difficult, it's better to give up." ”
Xu Haoran smiled: "You know, once I make up my mind, I must reach my goal." ”
Jin Ling'er said: "Okay, but you also have to consider the problem of funds, to win the Lu Group, we may not make enough money in Haoran International." ”
Xu Haoran said: "Don't worry about this, now I have shares in Daxia Group, and everything is going well in Daxia Group, it is not difficult to go to the bank for a loan with shares as collateral." ”
Jin Ling'er smiled: "You, you never know satisfaction, your appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and every time you earn money, all of it is quickly invested in new projects, have you ever thought about what to do if you fail one day?"
Xu Haoran smiled: "I have a sense of proportion, there will be no day, don't worry." ”
Jin Linger knew Xu Haoran's character, and she couldn't persuade her, so she immediately said, "Okay then." ”
After talking to Jin Ling'er, Xu Haoran lay on the bed, thinking about his own thoughts.
Now the Daxia Plaza has been completed, but there is no harvest yet, so the funds are still seriously insufficient.
