Chapter 149 Shareholders' Responsibilities

Qin Ran will save the important number on his mobile phone, and when he saw that it was the provincial government office phone, he quickly answered it.

It turned out that Governor Li Zhiguo was going to hold a New Year's group meeting for entrepreneurs, and Qin Ran, president of Jiangnan Group, was specially invited to attend. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qin Ran inquired a few more words, this group meeting was basically dominated by entrepreneurs from the last symposium, and Li Zhiguo's determination to do a good job in the economy of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province can be seen.

The time was set for three days later, and it seems that the provincial government office also had experience, and set aside three days for these business leaders to arrange their time. Otherwise, time is tight, and many people may still be in the field or even abroad, and they will not be able to come back for a while. As the country's future political star, Governor Li Zhiguo's face must be given to everyone, although there may not be direct benefits in actual contact, but maintaining a good relationship with him is definitely a win-win situation.

Notified directly, Qin Ran definitely agreed to go.

The staff of the provincial government who was responsible for the notice also wondered that the other entrepreneurs were basically secretaries who answered the phone, but the president of the Jiangnan Group personally answered. Qin Ran is now in a semi-invisible state, so he basically decentralizes the power to the vice presidents, and they are responsible for handling daily work. Because this operation is not bad, there is no need for Qin Ran to have a secretary. If there are really trivial matters, he will usually tell Li Desheng to get it done.

Before attending the governor's group meeting, Qin Ran still had many things to deal with.

The plan for the company's annual meeting has been placed on his desk, and the company's generosity at the annual meeting last year made many employees look forward to this year's annual meeting. This year's benefits are good, and the treatment of the annual meeting must be improved. In just one year, the number of people in the company has increased by 3 times, which shows the speed of its expansion. The annual meeting is an important weapon to unite the morale of the company's employees, so Qin Ran readily approved the budget project. Half a month ago, Qin Ran had already informed all departments within the company that they needed to prepare program performances this year, and there would be additional rewards for the winning departmental programs.

As a shareholder of the Audi 4S store, Qin Ran also had to find time to attend the shareholders' meeting. The launch of the Audi A6L is selling well as everyone expected, and orders are now scheduled for half a year. In particular, orders from government agencies, enterprises and institutions are pouring in, and the leaders are disgusted with the old mounts being too outdated, and they are ready to choose A6L to upgrade. The title of A6L official car has disappeared, which has also led many business owners to follow suit. Calm, low-key and safe, it is still a lengthened version tailored specifically for the Chinese market, taking care of the VIPs who are used to sitting in the back seat, so the hot sale of the A6L shows Audi's accurate market positioning in China. From the opening to the present, about four months, Mu Ping smiled and announced that half of all investments have been recovered, and according to this growth momentum, all the investment can be repaid after six months.

Except for Qin Ran, all shareholders could not believe that they could achieve such good results. Unexpectedly, the Chinese market has such great potential, and they are all glad that they chose to invest in the project at the beginning. What the strategy should be for the coming year is the focus of discussion among shareholders. Under Qin Ran's suggestion, everyone finally agreed to continue to expand in the province and strive for the long-term goal of having 4S stores in every prefecture-level city in the province. This will also be in line with FAW Audi's wishes, after all, most of the outlets are also popular with their headquarters. However, the expansion could not be done without brains, and according to the income of residents and the economic development process, the shareholders unanimously decided to build sites in the remaining five prefecture-level cities in the coming year. The rolling development of free funds alone may be slower, and Mu Ping proposed an additional investment of 50 million yuan, which was subscribed by shareholders according to the original shares. Now the shape is very good, so everyone agreed to subscribe to the new investment amount.

Investment is considered investment, but the return still needs to be expressed, after all, the New Year is approaching, and everyone also hopes to have a good omen for dividends. In the end, it was decided to take 1 million in cash, and Qin Ran got 240,000 yuan in cash as a dividend red envelope for 24% of the shares.

After discussing this, Mu Ping threw another bombshell.

The 4S store model entered China and quickly adapted to the needs of localization, which was greatly welcomed. Therefore, automobile manufacturers continue to accelerate the layout in China, and cooperate to establish 4S stores in various places. Mu Ping revealed that Shanghai Volkswagen is recruiting new partners in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces to speed up the layout of 4S stores. However, unlike Audi becoming the only provincial agent, Shanghai Volkswagen is only one of the new dealers this time. Shanghai Volkswagen divides Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces into three regions, and intends to recruit three agents to develop together, so as to achieve the goal of distributing as many locations as possible.

Mu Ping was interested in participating in the competition, so he took the opportunity to ask if anyone else could work together again to try it out. Shanghai Volkswagen has a dominant position in the Yangtze River Delta, and Santana has always been the standard on the road. The opportunity is good, but investment requires money, and Shanghai Volkswagen's Passat may not be suitable for the Chinese market. Audi has already invested a lot of money, and many shareholders are unable to scrape together the excess funds for a while. As a result, less than one-third of the shareholders responded to Mu Ping's proposal, and Qin Ran was one of them. At this time, Qin Ran felt the benefits of not being bad for money, and when he saw an excellent investment opportunity, he could seize it if he had money.

Shanghai Volkswagen's 4S store Mu Ping's budget is 60 million investment, Qin Ran invested 20 million to subscribe for 1/3 of the equity, and let Mu Ping handle the rest. Mu Ping actually has no money, and his net worth is basically invested in the investment of Audi 4S stores. But he has been prepared, with the Audi 4S store he has been connected with a lot of people on the line, he is ready to pledge the equity in the Audi 4S store and borrow 15 million cash shares. Tao Xin didn't participate this time, his new real estate squeezed a lot of funds, and he was not as arrogant as Qin Ran. However, the boss of the entertainment city among the original shareholders once again invested 8 million. The business of the entertainment city is fast, but some of it is not necessarily light, and Boss Zeng is ready to launder the shore, so he followed the shares again. As for the remaining 17 million, it must not be difficult to let Mu Ping find a way to solve it by himself. Of course, this is just a plan, whether or not you can get the agency qualification of Shanghai Volkswagen depends on Mu Ping's public relations level.

Originally, he planned to fly to Diga to inspect the local development work in the past two days, but Qin Ran would not forget that his other identity was that of Diga, and he had an island being developed over there. If the construction schedule is carried out, the hotel facilities on the island are almost completed, and as the owner, of course, he will have to take a good look at it. But the provincial phone interrupted his trip, so he had to change the booking and postpone it for two days, Diga is close to the equator, there are no seasons in China, and the time of the year is about 30 degrees, which is suitable for running to vacation in winter. Qin Ran missed his big golden turtle a little, as well as the tranquil blue sea and blue sky. If it is a qiē shun lì, Jingui Island can start business during the May Day period of the next year, Qin Ran will also prepare to set up a tourism company this time, and has implemented hotel staff recruitment and training.

On the side of Skynet, Qin Ran, as a shareholder, of course, also has to participate in the company's year-end summary meeting. After running-in, and under Qin Ran's somewhat cheating guidance, the Skynet team ushered in a period of rapid growth. However, in the face of Xinhai, Sowolf and other large websites with more professional teams and strong venture capital, they soon faced a bottleneck in development. Ideas on the Internet are the most valuable, but they are also the easiest to copy. Skynet's idea of grabbing traffic was quickly learned by other domestic websites and became unpopular. The company's team couldn't get the right venture capital, and they actually had the idea of selling the company. Qin Ran felt that he was quite accurate at the beginning, these people were suitable for technology, but they were really not suitable for company operations. As the son of Huang Weiguo, Huang Haoming has matured a lot in just two months, and he knows how unrealistic his original entrepreneurial ideals are. If it weren't for the support funds obtained by virtue of the relationship, Skynet would have burned out of money and gone bankrupt soon.

Qin Ran will definitely not take a step back to participate in the operation of Skynet, although the Internet industry is also a big gold mine, but Qin Ran's major is real estate, and he is not sure that he will fight on two fronts. If he finds a good project like a 4S store, he is more willing to be an investor.

The 3 million support funds have been almost spent by them, and Qin Ran has no interest in increasing investment, after all, he was not optimistic about this project from the beginning. Returning to China to start a business, relying on an Internet idea, and then a few people brought in venture capital, and then went public on the NASDAQ, the original good idea now seems to have quickly failed, and the Skynet team is a little frustrated.

"You're a good technical team, but you're really lacking in the company's operations. If you think it's appropriate, I don't have much of a problem with selling the company. However, it is also a good way to merge with other companies. What you're missing most is an outstanding leader, and I'm sorry I'm not that person! ”

Regarding the Skynet team, Qin Ran frankly expressed his opinion.

The pace of the backdoor listing went smoothly, and Sun Jingui privately reached an acquisition agreement with other institutions, and now the shares of Jiangnan Group controlling "ST Tianding" have reached 38%. For this reason, Qin Ran has already sprinkled out 150 million funds. Now there is a 20% stake in the hands of the Economic and Trade Commission of Southern Jiangsu, and if the 20% stake is obtained through negotiation, then the backdoor listing of Jiangnan Real Estate will be just around the corner. By virtue of the relationship, Sun Jingui has already connected with the Southern Jiangsu Economic and Trade Commission, and the two sides have conducted simple negotiations on equity transfer. There is no leaky wall in the world, although Sun Jingui has been very careful, the previous 38% of the shares are scattered under the cover of many accounts, but for some reason as soon as he contacted southern Jiangsu, the news of the reorganization of "ST Tianding" or someone backdoor spread out. There has been a lot of volatility in the stock market, and it has been up and down for several days. Fortunately, Sun Jingui has already laid out in advance, so it actually has little impact on Jiangnan Group. The only thing is to buy shares from the public secondary market, the cost has risen a lot, and Jiangnan Real Estate has to pin the success of the backdoor on 20% of the equity of the Southern Jiangsu Economic and Trade Commission.

Under the premise of "national retreat and democratic advancement", southern Jiangsu Province also welcomes Jiangnan real estate cooperation, after all, "ST Tianding" is not well managed, and it is likely to be delisted if it loses money. How many listed joint-stock companies in the province is also a major political achievement, so southern Jiangsu Province does not want to see the delisting of "ST Tianding", not to mention that Qin Ran promised to continue to keep the joint-stock company in southern Jiangsu Province if the backdoor listing is successful. On the whole, the initial negotiations between the two sides are still very good.

Three days passed quickly, and Qin Ran was about to prepare to participate in the group meeting held by the provincial government.
