After returning from the crew to Ranfeng Building, before returning to his office, he met Ah Sen of the security department, who was once Jiang Ran's personal bodyguard and is now the head of the security department of Ranfeng Group.

"Mr. Jiang, you didn't participate in military training today?" Ah Sen looked at Jiang Ran, a hint of ridicule flashed in his eyes, and he asked curiously.

Jiang Ran's face was a little embarrassed, because his new movie needs to involve the use of a lot of weapons and some military tactical actions, so during the preparation of the movie, Jiang Ran arranged for veterans from the security department to conduct regular military training for relevant personnel.

Jiang Ran, as the general director of the film and the leading actor, naturally also needs to receive relevant military training. However, it is obvious that Jiang Ran has too many things in his hands, so he, the initiator, has become the one who has the most absences and the worst training effect in the entire military training.

Because of this, Zhong Chuhong, who was extremely enthusiastic and participated in the whole process, often blamed and complained about this matter, so that during this period of time, Jiang Ran was often deflated in front of Zhong Chuhong because of this incident, and was ridiculed by some people in the group.

Jiang Ran was very helpless about this, and the plan he proposed was the first to fail to comply with it, and he was blamed and complained by Zhong Chuhong, Jiang Ran had no choice at all.

Of course, Jiang Ran also saw that Zhong Chuhong had picked his own thorns in front of the group's employees during this period of time, and he was not affected by emotional problems, so he used the topic to play.

Because of this, he didn't blame Zhong Chuhong, even if he was a little embarrassed and embarrassed, Jiang Ran endured it all.

glared at Ah Sen fiercely, and then said viciously: "Which pot of your kid can't be opened, right?" Saying that, Jiang Ran turned his head and looked around carefully, and asked, "Ah Hong is participating in military training today, and you said me again?"

Ah Sen stifled a smile, nodded, and said, "Well, Miss Zhong is now participating in military training, and I asked you about it just now! Mr. Jiang is over now?"

Jiang Ran shook his head with a little helplessness and said, "I still have a little thing to do now, and I won't go to the military training over there in the future." You'd better arrange training for me separately. Otherwise, it will affect other people's training programs. ”

"I see, Mr. Jiang. Regarding Jiang Ran's request, Ah Sen has no opinion at all. After all, there are many veterans in the security department, and the tasks are not full every day, so it is not difficult to draw one person out and organize Jiang Ran's training alone.

After separating from Asen, Jiang Ran did not go to the training point again, but returned directly to his office, when he was in the crew just now, Ran Dong's phone found him, so that Jiang Ran had to give up his plan to have dinner with Jackie Chan and others.

"Mr. Jiang, just now Mr. Ran from Bluestar Investment came to you a few times and wanted to report to you about the bank's investment. As soon as Jiang Ran returned to the ninth floor, the newly appointed assistant Li Dongxian reported to Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran nodded and ordered, "You call him and ask him to come over immediately, and I will wait for him in the office." ”

"Yes, Mr. Jiang. Li Dongxian nodded in agreement.

Jiang Ran nodded, then turned around and pushed away the people in the office, and then instructed the secretary, "Liu Yue, make me a cup of tea." ”

Jiang Ran didn't wait long in the office, and Ran Dong hurried to Jiang Ran's face.

Glancing up at Ran Dong, who was rushing over, Jiang Ran waved his hand to sit down, and then asked, "Is there something wrong with the bank's acquisition?" Why is it so urgent. ”

Jiang Ran's plan to enter the banking industry was put forward and determined at the beginning of this year, and by the beginning of May, after a comprehensive investigation and Jiang Ran's approval, Ran Dong began to negotiate for the acquisition in a real sense.

Unexpectedly, in less than a month, Ran Dong rushed to find himself again, and it was obvious that in the process of acquisition, he encountered variables.

"Mr. Jiang, there are indeed some problems now. Ran Dong said with some eagerness, "Our acquisition plan, now there are opponents. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Ran straightened up suddenly, frowned and asked, "Which bank's acquisition is the competitor?"

After the results of Ran Dong's comprehensive investigation came out, Jiang Ran and others identified a total of three banks as key acquisition targets. But Jiang Ran's favorite bank is Sun Hung Kai Bank, and the other two, whether they are Yongan Bank or Kangnian Bank, are just alternative choices in Jiang Ran's mind.

As the manager of the entire acquisition plan, Ran Dong naturally understood his boss's thoughts, so after hearing this, his face was a little ugly and said: "Sun Hung Kai Bank! Now Sun Hung Kai Bank is negotiating with Arab banks in the Middle East, and Arab banks want to acquire Sun Hung Kai Bank. ”

"On top of that, now that the takeover talks between the two banks are coming to an end, it's too late for us to step in. At the end, Ran Dong's voice was already a little dry.

Jiang Ran's face was not very good-looking when he heard this, and he stared at Ran Dong and asked loudly: "Didn't you find any signs in the preliminary investigation of such a big matter as the acquisition of Sun Hung Kai by the Middle East Bank? And what have you been doing in the nearly one month since we determined the target? Why have you waited until now to find out about this situation?"

Facing Jiang Ran's questioning, Ran Dong explained with a bitter face: "Mr. Jiang, this is indeed a mistake in my work. The acquisition of the Arab banks was very secretive, and they had direct contact with Belida and Merrill Lynch from the beginning, and did not contact the banks in Hong Kong. ”

"Because the banks here in Hong Kong don't know about this, when I investigated, I only focused on the bank's business situation and ignored potential competitors, which was my mistake. ”

Jiang Ran himself knows that Ran Dong can't be completely blamed for this, as an outsider, if someone else's acquisition plan is completed and wants to keep it secret, it is really difficult for outsiders to detect.

Calming down the anger in his heart slightly, Jiang Ran asked in a deep voice: "Where is the progress of the Middle Easterners now? Do we still have a chance to intervene?"

"Now that Arab banks have largely completed takeover negotiations with Bailida and Merrill Lynch, Sun Hung Kai Bank in Hong Kong can get the news. ”

"As for our involvement in this acquisition, there is no contract between the two sides yet, so theoretically, we can still intervene, but only theoretically. ”

Jiang Ran stopped speaking when he heard this, leaned back in the chair quietly, closed his eyes and thought about it carefully, and only opened his eyes again and asked, "How are you investigating Yongan Bank and Kangnian Bank, have you been in contact with them?"

"Both banks have already investigated. Ran Dong nodded and replied, "Among them, Yongan Bank's current business situation is not ideal, and there should be reasons for the internal strife of the Guo family." ”

Guo Zhiquan, who is now the head of the Yongan Guo family, but his younger brother, Guo Zhikuang, who used to control Yongan Bank, resigned last year for embezzlement. ”

"Now Yongan Bank is in the hands of another branch of the Guo family, and Guo Zhiquan, the head of the family, is competing for control of Yongan. As a result, the management of Yongan Bank is now very chaotic, and the executives and directors have won a large number of loans through various illegal operations. ”

"Therefore, I think that Yongan Bank is not suitable to enter now, because the management of the whole bank is now in chaos, and all kinds of power abuse for personal gain are very serious, which will bring huge risks to the management of the bank after we take over. ”

"And I think there's a very good chance that the loans they're bringing to executives and directors in violation of the law now will become dead debts. Ran Dong said this, looked at Jiang Ran, and finally suggested:

"Therefore, I suggest that we temporarily exclude Yongan Bank from this acquisition plan, and wait until Yongan Bank has its own internal problems, and then we will intervene, and the cost will be much smaller. ”

Jiang Ran nodded slightly, and then said, "After you go down, make me a detailed report of Yongan Bank first, and then I will think about it." ”

"Okay, Mr. Jiang. ”

"What about Kangnian Bank?" Jiang Ran then asked.

"Kangnian Bank is doing quite well now, and their conservative business strategy has made them one of the few small and medium-sized banks that have not been greatly affected by the real estate and banking fluctuations. ”

"However, it is precisely because of this that after I tentatively proposed to buy, they simply refused, and they were not even interested in negotiating with me. ”

"Therefore, I think the Li family should not have any intention of selling the bank now, they are not a listed bank, so if their owners are determined not to sell, it will be very difficult for us to acquire them. ”

Jiang Ran didn't answer immediately, and after thinking about it for a while, he said: "In other words, the three investment targets we originally selected are now very difficult to acquire?"

"Yes, Mr. Jiang. Under Jiang Ran's slightly gloomy gaze, Ran Dong said stubbornly.
