Chapter 32 Corporate Crisis
With Pan Li's report, the atmosphere in He Ling's office also became solemn, because the things that had been guessed before were being verified one by one.
"There's another content that you should be interested in as well." Pan Li looked at You Huanchang.
"Would I be interested? Is it about the anti-corruption team? You Huanchang asked Pan Li nervously, how much he had already guessed.
"That's right, it's about the anti-corruption team, and it's about Zhong Xiaoxu, who is the same time as you." Pan Li's expression became very serious.
"What's wrong with him?" You Huanchang also guessed a little bit, but it was hard to say.
"According to my investigation, he contacted Zhao Qianqian that day, the two of them had dinner at Huanglongxuan, and after eating, they went directly to Zhao Qianqian's house, and the two of them stayed inside for more than five hours before Zhong Xiaoxu left, what did he do inside, we all adults should have guessed it somewhat, right!" Pan Li smiled and looked at You Huanchang.
"That doesn't necessarily mean anything." He Ling followed Pan Li's words.
"They are all adults, and you should know what kind of person this Zhao Qianqian is, they definitely can't just chat inside." Pan Li said confidently, she seemed to understand the whole story very well.
Pan Li's eyes looked at You Huanchang, as if she knew that You Huanchang knew these things.
Now that things have gradually become clear, the relationship between Zhao Qianqian and Liu Sheng is the biggest problem in this matter. What else did you find out about Liu Sheng? He Ling then asked.
"Liu Sheng has already taken a plane to the United States, before going to the United States, there are indeed people who have arranged to absorb Haotian's shares, if there is no accident, he now owns more than 13% of Haotian's shares, if he is allowed to unite one or two major shareholders, it is definitely not impossible to control Haotian." Pan Li looked at He Ling.
"Since Mr. Du became a shareholder, our He family owns only 20% of the shares of Haotian Group, and if Liu Sheng unites other shareholders, it is not impossible to be the chairman of the board of directors." He Ling looked at Pan Li helplessly.
"I believe that Liu Sheng's departure is to avoid our eyes and ears, and I don't want us to investigate him too thoroughly." You Huanchang looked at He Ling.
"No, there is another possibility, that is, he went to the United States to find Mr. Du, Mr. Du is the second largest shareholder of our Haotian, and his shares have always been entrusted to my father to take care of it, so we have so much decision-making power, if Mr. Du's shares are entrusted to him, then our situation will be completely reversed." He Ling said suddenly, she suddenly felt that this matter had become a little serious.
"I also learned that most of Liu Sheng's properties are in the United States, and he had a transaction with Mr. Du many years ago, so the two of them should have a good relationship." Pan Li added.
"Then this problem is serious, I will report to the chairman, this problem is urgent." He Ling got up from her position.
"You two are waiting for me here, I'll go and report to the chairman first." After He Ling finished speaking, he walked to He Tian's office.
He Tian was chatting with two people in his office, both of whom were members of the Xiangcheng Jockey Club, and they were also people with heads and faces in Xiangcheng, both of whom were some big chaebols.
He Ling walked to the office and saw these people, but did not directly say the news of the investigation center, but greeted the two with a smile.
"Uncle Ruan, Uncle Luo, hello, didn't disturb your conversation!" He Ling greeted them very politely.
"No, how can it bother us? Beautiful general manager, since the last press conference, it is the first time to see you, such a close meeting, it is really more beautiful and charming! "The speaker is Ruan Shaolong of the Digital Group, the Digital Group is a super enterprise comparable to Haotian, He Tian and Ruan Shaolong are old friends for decades.
"My daughter He Ling, she is very helpful, and I will rely on you to take care of her in the future. I'm sure you got to know her at the press conference. He Tian said with a smile.
"There is understanding, the future is terrifying, soon after taking office, it acquired AT&C, Zhiyuan Telecom is now the first in Xiangcheng, and it can squeeze into the top ten in the world, which is really not easy!" Ruan Shaolong said.
"It's all my father's guidance, so don't make fun of me." He Ling said politely.
"Oh old man! That's what you're not right, you don't say hello to such a big daughter, and we were all surprised at the press conference that day! Sitting next to Ruan Shaolong was Luo Tao, one of the most prestigious investors in Xiangcheng.
"I know that your son is amazing, I didn't expect you to have such a beautiful and powerful daughter, Lao He, you are really good at teaching your children, if my son grows up with half of your children, I will be satisfied." Ruan Shaolong continued.
"Alright! Let's withdraw first, you father and daughter have a good talk! Remember what we said, we are ready and waiting for you. Luo Tao got up from the sofa with a smile and prepared to leave.
"Okay, I'll think about it and get back to you as soon as possible." He Tian said with a smile.
After Luo Tao and Ruan Shaolong left, He Ling sat down, He Tian looked at her serious expression, and knew that there should be new progress in things.
You Huanchang and Pan Li were waiting for He Ling to come back in He Ling's office, and both of them were worried about the development of this matter.
"Do you think this Zhong Xiaoxu has a relationship with Zhao Qianqian?" Pan Li looked at You Huanchang, this was a questioning tone, she hoped to know about it from You Huanchang's mouth.
"Hello gossip! Why didn't you look into it by the way? You Huanchang looked at Pan Li.
"I'll investigate, of course I'll investigate, but even if I investigate, I can't know everything! Who knows what they did in there, only the two of them know, unless they are recorded, otherwise only he knows what happened that night. Pan Li walked to the window and looked at the scenery outside, looking a little helpless.
"You seem to be concerned about this! Why are you so interested in what happened to them? You Huanchang walked to the window and stood next to Pan Li.
"What do I have to be curious about, I'm just worried about this matter, if this Zhong Xiaoxu is handled by Zhao Qianqian, instead of him getting Zhao Qianqian, then the matter must be a completely different result." Pan Li went on to say that he was very worried about what happened to Zhong Xiaoxu's relationship with Zhao Qianqian.
"I can tell you with certainty that it was Zhao Qianqian who got Zhong Xiaoxu done, and this is definitely a bureau, just to deal with the anti-corruption team." You Huanchang looked at Pan Li very seriously.
"How can you be so sure? These are just your guesses, right? Pan Li looked at You Huanchang suspiciously.
"This is what Zhong Xiaoxu told me personally, and the two of them did have a relationship that night. What I'm worried about is that this matter will be used by Zhao Qianqian to make a fuss. Zhong Xiaoxu continued.
"Then this matter is tricky, why didn't you say it in front of Mr. He just now?" Pan Li said complainingly.
"I didn't have time to say it just now, Mr. He had already gone to the chairman." You Huanchang looked at Pan Li.
And He Ling, who was in He Tian's office, was reporting the situation to He Tian.
"Actually, I have noticed Liu Sheng's ambition for Haotian, but he just hasn't had a chance to let him do it, it seems that he can't bear it this time." He Tian's expression was not too serious, and it was obvious that he was not too worried about this matter.
"He's gone to the United States now, and I'm worried that he's going to find Mr. Du, and if he joins forces with Mr. Du, then Dad, you won't have control over the board." He Ling said worriedly.
"I've definitely considered this, don't worry! It is impossible for Mr. Du to hand over the shares to Liu Sheng, because I have already reached an agreement with Mr. Du that his shares will be handed over to me for the time of my tenure, unless I am seriously ill or die, otherwise he will definitely not succeed. He Tian smiled and looked at He Ling.
"So Dad, you've been prepared for a long time, so I'm still worried?" Hearing He Tian say that, He Ling was relieved.
"Although Mr. Du will not cooperate with him, the impact of this matter is also quite serious, and this Liu Sheng is constantly absorbing the company's shares, he must have the support of a consortium behind him, although his assets have increased a lot over the years, but they are not big enough to absorb such a large number of Haotian shares at this time." He Tian continued.
"Are you saying that he may not have gone to the United States to see Mr. Du this time, but to meet the consortium?" He Ling looked at He Tian in surprise.
"It's very likely, now that he has squeezed a lot of our shares on hand, and he is determined to gain control of Haotian, even if we pull up the stock price, he will continue to follow up. So now we have to fight him, the only possibility is to pull up the stock price, so that he doesn't have much money to continue to follow. He Tian looked at He Ling and was still very confident.
"But the share price has been falling since I took office, and now that we are still in the limelight, I am worried that the stock price will continue to fall if this financial incident ferments again." He Ling looked at He Tian worriedly, because she really didn't have much experience in this area.
"Don't worry! There will be no more things to break out in this matter, because the stocks that Liu Sheng bought before are also considered high-priced, and if they fall again, then his property will evaporate a lot, and these are not exactly his money, and his investors will not let him increase this risk. He Tian looked at He Ling calmly.
Regarding Liu Shenghetian, it seems that he is confident, and there are not too many things to worry about, the problems of the finance department are being amplified within the company, but there is only a rumor outside, which has pushed down the stock price a little. All this is within Liu Sheng's plan.
He Ling returned to the office, and Pan Li and You Huanchang hurriedly asked the chairman's opinion. He Ling told them the company's final decision and arranged for them to do some things, among which the handling of the incident in the finance department was the top priority.
After listening to He Ling's words, You Huanchang always felt as if something was wrong, if the company's stock price was raised at this time, it would certainly solve Liu Sheng's further control of Haotian Group, but in this way, even if he couldn't control the company, he could make a lot of money! Didn't these chairmen think about it?
Thinking that he can be considered by a newcomer in the workplace, why can't the chairman consider it, is this the chairman's strategy?
