Chapter 31 The Unpredictable Heart
() Su Qing was full of doubts before stepping into the CFO's office, and she didn't understand why Xiao Zhufang would prepare the materials for Xiao Wei.
But soon she knew the answer, because she met Xiao Wei in Director Xiao's office.
"Su Qing, come, sit. Drink. Xiao Zhufang is still as enthusiastic as ever.
Su Qing nodded at Xiao Wei, who also smiled and signaled.
"Su Qing, it's not me looking for you, it's Xiao Wei who mentioned that the company wants to sell the two businesses of trade and medical investment, and he said that you have already evaluated these two assets. So I'm just looking for you. Auntie, this is not considered overreach. Xiao Zhufang seemed to explain her actions unintentionally.
Hearing Xiao Zhufang's words, Su Qing was obviously stunned for a moment, she finally knew the purpose of Lu Kaiwen's investigation. This decision surprised her a little, but for some reason, she felt a faint uneasiness rise within her.
"What? Su Qing, you still don't know that the company is going to sell these two businesses? Xiao Zhufang caught the change between Su Qing's eyebrows, and she asked while exchanging a glance with Xiao Wei on the side.
"Director Xiao, I don't know about these things, maybe these things haven't been decided yet. I'm just a newcomer, and Mr. Lu probably doesn't want me to get involved in this kind of confidential thing. Su Qing explained vaguely, and her tone brought out complaints. She didn't notice such a tone herself, and the long-term confrontation with Mr. Lu made her develop this tone.
Xiao Zhufang and Xiao Wei exchanged glances again.
"Su Qing, what do you think about this matter?" Xiao Zhufang asked further, she had asked the latter a few minutes ago when she knew about it from Xiao Wei's mouth, but the latter had no answer.
"This ...... Director Xiao, I don't have an idea. This kind of corporate strategy is not something I can think about. Su Qing hesitated for a moment, but still gave the most direct answer.
Xiao Zhufang smiled, she was giving herself a step.
"Okay, Su Qing, tell Xiao Wei about the results of your asset appraisal of the two businesses, he is the main person in charge of the negotiation with the buyer. He needs your data as a basis for negotiation. Xiao Zhufang turned back into the corner of the middleman at this moment, she relaxed, at least until now she hadn't noticed anything abnormal. Xiao Wei's involvement in things allows her to participate indirectly.
Su Qing took a closer look at Xiao Wei, a chubby middle-aged man with a smile on his face, and a housekeeper who was privately sealed by the company's employees. Su Qing couldn't see this person's xìng character and temperament, because he looked harmless to humans and animals, and lost all his edge.
"Manager Xiao. I estimate both of these businesses according to the model of physical assets + expected profits + intangible assets. The Ministry of Trade is complex and has few physical assets, which is characteristic of trade. We have 5 garment processing factories and 2 plastic production factories with fixed contacts. These assets do not belong to us, but they are attached to our company. We can estimate by a certain asset, and I think it is reasonable to ask for 3 million. There are 5 million orders that have been signed and have not been completed, of which our profit plus export tax rebate is 1 million. The most important thing should be our business team. The focus of the estimation is on the 10 experienced employees of our trade department. According to their existing business potential, each person has at least 2 million potential orders a year, and if the whole is sold, at least 5 million can buy the entire business team. This is my opinion of the Ministry of Trade. Su Qing handed over the specific data of the Ministry of Trade's assessment of our production. Each employee's resume and performance capabilities are estimated individually.
Xiao Wei frowned and didn't glance at the thick form, he had a headache, and what he didn't like the most was dealing with numbers.
"Next up is the Healthcare Investment Department. The fixed assets are clear at a glance, and the value of the depreciated assets is less than 5 million, most of which are the results of investment in the past ten years. In terms of profits, since the share with the hospital is decreasing year by year, and we have mainly focused on real estate in recent years, so there is no good new investment. The profit is now guaranteed to be 2 million a year. Again, the focus is on our investment managers. Take Du Yi, the manager of our medical investment department, as an example, he is a well-known manager in the industry, and one person is worth 5 million. Then the overall assessment can be assessed at least 15 million. Of course, people are mobile. The entire business team can be churned during the sell-off phase, which is beyond the control of the assessment. Combining the two businesses, the data base I give is 20 million to 25 million. Su Qing tried her best to keep the report short. She wondered if such a debriefing would be useful.
Xiao Zhufang and Xiao Wei both listened carefully to Su Qing's narration, and until she was finished, the two were still pondering.
"Well, it's better to have data than nothing. Su Qing, do you think we have to sell these two businesses? Xiao Zhufang asked Su Qing again, she seemed to do it on purpose, and it seemed that she really couldn't make up her mind.
"I can't say this either, it's too big. In my personal opinion, it seems that there is still room for profit in these two areas. Su Qing pondered her words.
"Yes, these two businesses have always been the main business of our company in the past, how can we sell them now." Xiao Zhufang seems to have found her confidant.
Xiao Wei also nodded. He was the least willing to sell those businesses. It's always hard to give up feelings.
"However, selling assets has become commonplace in Western economies. Even some businessmen specialize in buying and selling assets, which is a lucrative industry. The economic system and values of the entire West are not the same as ours. Su Qing said again, with disdain in her tone.
Xiao Zhufang and Xiao Wei glanced at each other, and they thought of a person at the same time - Lu Kaiwen, who came back from the United States.
All this seems to be explainable, because Kevin Lu came back from the United States, and his way of thinking is different.
After Su Qing left, Xiao Zhufang set his eyes on Xiao Wei again.
"Xiao Wei, what do you think of Lu Kaiwen. Does he have any other purpose? Xiao Zhufang's tone carried the expectation of his brother.
"How do you say that? I've always thought so. But he pushed the matter to me and let me lead the negotiations, how can I judge his purpose. Ning Feiyang may support our judgment, but not now, he pushed me out and withdrew from this matter himself, Ning Feiyang will not think that he has other purposes no matter what. At least he won't get any benefit. Alas," Xiao Wei's last sigh revealed his confusion.
"But he is the one who leads the asset research and evaluation." Xiao Zhufang seems to be still looking for Lu Kaiwen's loopholes.
"My sister. Didn't you hear me clearly? It was a report made by Su Qing. Su Qing. You are a mouthful of Ning Yu's girlfriend and future daughter-in-law. Can this be bullstrapped to Kevin Lu's head? Xiao Wei shook his head, his face full of wry smiles.
"What do you mean...... Lu Kaiwen has arranged this a long time ago? Just to gag our mouths? No, he would have thought about it so thoroughly, even taking into account Su Qing's factor? Xiao Zhufang's tone was full of disbelief.
"I don't know, I hope not. If that's the case, it's terrible. Xiao Wei seemed to comfort himself.
Xiao Zhufang glanced at her younger brother deeply, and she had a trace of fear.
Su Qing returned to her office and sat in her seat for a while, but she still gritted her teeth and stood up and knocked on the door of the inner office.
"Mr. Lu, can you tell me the real purpose of letting me lead the assessment?" Su Qing, who was standing at the table, went straight in.
Kevin Lu raised his head, his face full of surprise.
"How do you remember to say that? What's the matter? Mr. Lu's flat tone had concern for his subordinates.
"You asked me to do the appraisal in order to sell the trade and medical investments. Is that so? Su Qing's eyes stared at each other, she wanted to see the truth behind those black ink-like eyes.
"Does this have anything to do with you? Do I need to explain it to you? Mr. Lu lowered his head, as if he didn't bother to discuss with his subordinates.
"It relates because it's the assessment I did. The focus of the assessment may vary depending on the purpose. Only if you tell me the real purpose can I do the work against xìng. Su Qing didn't back down, but her tone became more strategic.
"Well, for good reason. Yes, to sell them. There are no deviations in your report and can be used as a basis for negotiations. Mr. Ning also thinks so. You can rest assured. Mr. Lu raised his head with appreciation in his eyes.
"You...... How can you do that. You shouldn't hide it from me. You shouldn't have sold your business so arbitrarily. Su Qing was deflated all of a sudden, she didn't expect the other party to block her seizures with such an attitude. But she just wants to fight against the other party's disdain, even if the other party is right, she has to fight herself. What's more, she didn't know why she had a trace of worry deep in her heart.
"Well, you've done your best in your field. Others are not what you should consider. You are still young, learn to enjoy life and enjoy the joy that carefree brings you. Go to work, even if it's reading a novel, or talking on the phone about a relationship, I'm not an old-fashioned boss, you work very well and you should be rewarded. Mr. Lu was accustomed to lowering his head to read the information.
Looking at Mr. Lu's old-fashioned style, Su Qing was really a little crazy.
She seemed to be straining against the air, she wanted to vent, but only helplessly.
