Chapter 108: High-Level Dialogue

“Hwaking-Sun,you-can-call-me-Hwaking.”

“Terrance-Liu,just-call-me-Terrance.”

Since they almost had the same background in education and work, Sun Jingui and Liu Xufeng began to introduce each other before waiting for Qin Ran to come. However, they all speak English, speak quickly, and talk to each other well.

Sun Jingui's name is a Chinese name he later came along, and he used "Hwaking" in Singapore and the United States

-Sun". Therefore, Sun Jingui prefers to be called "Hwaking" by others.

Graduated from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, known as the cradle of Wall Street, Sun Jingui naturally has his pride. Being able to study in the United States from Singapore with excellent grades was the most important challenge of his life and laid a solid foundation for him to start his career.

Although Qin Ran agreed to Sun Jingui's entry, as the company's chief human resources officer, Liu Xufeng had to meet him before he joined the company.

One is Yale University and the other is the University of Pennsylvania, both of which belong to the Ivy League; Before coming to Jiangnan Group, one worked at McKinsey & Company and the other at Goldman Sachs Investment Bank, both of which worked in top international multinational companies. Therefore, these two overseas compatriots from Taiwan and Singapore chatted very happily and had many common languages with each other.

"Terrance, I didn't expect to meet a professional with a background like yours at this company, and to be honest, I'm quite surprised."

Sun Jingui sighed slightly.

"Actually, I wouldn't have thought that I would switch to a newly established real estate company. Anyway, in the end, like you, I was fooled. ”

Liu Xufeng shrugged his shoulders and replied.

"In terms of human resources management and financial operations, Mr. Qin has recruited top talents like us. The two of us should be regarded as the top professionals in the mainland in the industry, and there are no outsiders, so we are allowed to be proud for a while. ”

boasting with humor, Sun Jingui said.

"It's true that people at the same level as us estimate that the number of hands is too much."

After taking a sip of coffee, Liu Xufeng agreed with the other party's point of view.

"In the company's core real estate business, it is basically dominated by high-level talents who have worked hard in the local area for many years. Mr. Zhou and Mr. Guo are both high-achieving students who graduated from the top 2 universities in China, and have been immersed in the industry for many years. As the company's CHO, how do you see such a talent allocation. ”

Sun Jingui, who also loves coffee, also asked after taking a small sip.

"Frankly, it's the one that I think has the most potential. You and I, although we are among the best in the industry, we have the advantage of having a wealth of overseas experience, but this is also our biggest disadvantage. In the mainland, many times the rules in many places are not like those in foreign countries, and I think you should also have a deep understanding when you go to the mainland. If you let a real estate talent from the United States or a European country come to the mainland, I can guarantee that he will not be able to move an inch. The real estate industry in the mainland involves a wide range of relationships, many doorways, and full of open and secret rules, so that an outsider who is not familiar with the mainland's national conditions needs to pay at least three years of tuition before he can become a teacher. I think you have also seen the dawn of the mainland real estate industry, on the same starting line, three years in the evening basically unexpectedly 'Out', immediately out! ”

Liu Xufeng took the coffee pot, added coffee for the two of them, and continued.

"Qin is always one of the most strategic people I have ever met, and his careful layout and allocation of resources has given me confidence in the company's future. Mr. Zhou and Mr. Guo are always classmates, both graduated from Huaqing University, and it is said that they both had the opportunity to study in the Ivy League that year. But they all gave up, and as soon as they graduated, they devoted themselves to the real estate industry in the mainland, and it has been almost 10 years. Mr. Song, a property management company, has a high status in Hong Kong's service industry, and Mr. Guan is not an ordinary person at first glance. can recruit so many high-level talents, at least, from the fact that he can fool to the two of us who are willing to come to Jiangzhou, we know how capable Mr. Qin is. ”

"Terrance, your words have made me a little more interested in this company. You know, I'm mainly here for the backdoor listing of Jiangnan Real Estate, and frankly it's just a transit point for me. ”

"Then you have to be careful, if you are not careful, it may end up at the terminal. At least that's what I intend to do, and I can retire from here if I have a qiēshun lì. ”

Leaning his head on the back of the sofa, Liu Xufeng said.

"You're younger than me, and you even think about retirement. Oh, and speaking of which, I feel that not only is this company young, but also that its management is also very young. You and I are old men. ”

Chatting and chatting, the two of them started talking, and the common mode of thinking allowed them to discuss with each other.

"Hwaking, isn't there a saying: as long as you are young, nothing is impossible. You see, that's one of the reasons I chose this place. ”

"I knew you two must have a lot in common, so I came a little late to let you two talk a little longer. Didn't say bad things behind my back, did you? ”

Pushing open the door, Qin Ran walked in.

"We just complimented you on your youth and promisingness."

Compared with Sun Jingui, Liu Xufeng is obviously more familiar with Qin Ran.

"It's true."

Seeing Qin Ran looking at him, Sun Jingui echoed.

"Then I won't accept your praise modestly, after all, if I am promising, then the company will definitely make a difference!"

Qin Ran sat down on the sofa opposite the two.

"Coffee?"

Sun Jingui wanted to add for Qin Ran.

"Hwaking, Mr. Qin likes to drink boiled water, if I remember it well, from the analysis of psychology I learned in college, this kind of person is generally a puritan with a pure heart and few desires."

Liu Xufeng interrupted Sun Jingui's move.

"Thanks, I do like to drink plain water."

First politely declined Sun Jingui, and then Qin Ran continued.

"The great Puritans created the hope of mankind - the United States of America. Therefore, I, the Puritans in your mouth, may also create an empire in the future. ”

"My-king, as you wish! From now on, I will have to rely on you for my pension. ”

Seeing the humorous and wise dialogue between Qin Ran and Liu Xufeng, Sun Jingui somewhat understood why Liu Xufeng said that this might be the end of his career.

"Before I came, I was recommended by a friend who found that there was a 'ST Tianding' shell listed on the A-share market in southern Jiangsu Province. The China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) has just introduced a new policy in the middle of the year, and listed companies that have lost money for two consecutive years will be listed as ST. Although there are many loss-making companies in A-shares, there are very few companies that can raise funds after backdoor listing, and 'ST Tianding' is one of them. ”

As a professional manager, Sun Jingui quickly devoted himself to the work ordered by Qin Ran as soon as he came.

"In the world of investing, you are an expert. Since I came to you, I basically entrusted you with carte blanche to deal with it. You can start building your team, and then it's time to act and act again, and get your hands on this shell resource. ”

A person's energy is limited, and it is impossible to be proficient in everything, so Qin Ran needs these top professionals to help him take care of related fields. There is no suspicion that the employer is not suspicious, and Qin Ran gave the other party the greatest authorization to deal with related business.

"Hmm...... I kind of get the feeling that Terrance is talking about. ”

Liu Xufeng's goal had been achieved, so he left first, he knew that Qin Ran still had something to discuss with Sun Jingui alone. Qin Ran's atmosphere made Sun Jingui feel trusted and then able to do a big job, as well as the intrigue when this young company was not at Goldman Sachs.

"I have specially prepared 100 million on a special account, and this money will be used as the upfront capital for your operation. I think it should be possible to absorb a certain number of shares in the secondary market. As the CFO, your subordinates will hand over the funds to you. ”

"According to what you said, I do need a team first, and I already have some candidates in mind, and I hope I can say that I can move them to come to Jiangzhou."

Since there is money, then the next thing is people, Sun Jingui replied after thinking for a while.

Soon, several young people who were budding in the financial industry received the opportunity to work in Jiangzhou, and Sun Jingui became famous in the industry because he led the Goldman Sachs team to undertake the successful listing of two large enterprises in Hong Kong. Just when everyone thought he would continue to go to the next level, the news came that he had resigned from Goldman Sachs. The recruitment of industry bigwigs, it is difficult for these young people who have just stepped into the financial circle to refuse. As a result, a team of 5 people under Sun Jingui was quickly established, and they were specifically responsible for the backdoor listing of Jiangnan Real Estate.

As the new regulations have just come out, Tianding Company has taken the title of ST, and the stock has been falling and falling in recent times. Since putting on ST, the stock has lost 30% of its market value. With the 100 million funds provided by Qin Ran, Sun Jingui quickly bought 3% of the shares. The action of backdoor absorption of stocks in the secondary market must be unaware, otherwise the shareholders know that you are going to reorganize through the backdoor, and there will definitely be a large amount of capital to speculate and raise profits, and the cost of backdoor will increase greatly. Therefore, Sun Jingui carefully stretched the battle line and exchanged time for space to slowly receive the goods. After obtaining a certain share of the shares in the secondary market, you have to negotiate the transfer with other institutional investors or enterprises that hold the shares. If you are not careful, you will lose all the games, and you can't help Sun Jingui step by step and make careful calculations.

The design drawings of "Gangnam Impression" have been approved by the city, with a total construction area of 100,000 square meters above and below ground, and a total of 199 commercial houses for sale, including split-storey apartments, duplex apartments, townhouses and single-family villas. Because it is a master work, in order to ensure the overall effect of the community, the floor area ratio has been slightly changed to 1.8, and the Jiangzhou municipal government has also agreed to do so. In this way, "Jiangnan Impression" has an additional 6,400 square meters of saleable construction area, and at the price of 15,000 yuan per square meter, there is almost 100 million more here. Therefore, as long as the relevant leaders put pen to paper, they can leak millions of dollars from it, which shows the importance of building a good relationship with the government from one side.

The demolition work in Ningbo City is progressing smoothly, and more than two-thirds of the total 709 households have been contracted in 20 days. In some areas where all the people have signed the contract, demolition teams have already entered the site to demolish the dilapidated bungalows. However, there were still 3 nail households, and no matter how the Ningbo City Demolition and Relocation Office did its work, they just did not agree to the demolition under reasonable conditions. Either asking for a sky-high price or asking for the whole family to work, these conditions are unacceptable to Jiangnan Real Estate and the Ningbo City Demolition and Relocation Office. Encirclement tactics, since they can't talk about it, then first mobilize the surrounding neighbors to relocate, and finally gnaw such hard bones.

Hearing Guo Huiming's report, Qin Ran was also very helpless, the conditions given by Jiangnan Real Estate are indeed very favorable, but it is true that you can't satisfy everyone. If you finally compromise with the nail household, then it will be unfair to the family who moved first. It is estimated that it may really be demolished in the end, and Qin Ran has already prepared in his heart.

There is bad news, but there is also good news.

Wang Yaxuan seems to have been busy with the work of the school's student union for a while, and she took the initiative to invite Qin Ran to sing together at KTV on the weekend, of course, not only the two of them, but also other classmates, which can be regarded as thanking everyone for their help to her during the campaign.
