forty-three

When Chen Mingli walked out of the Hongda Hotel, the sky was already hazy and dark. got into the car and was about to call Bai Yuanwei's mobile phone, but he heard a few short horn sounds. When I looked up, I found that Bai Yuanwei's car was parked not far in front of him.

The mobile phone was still called, and Chen Mingli was not angry when she opened her mouth, "Are you mentally ill?" What are you doing here? ”

Bai Yuanwei laughed and said, "Maybe I'm really a little nervous, I'm afraid that you eloped with Fang Zhenggang!" ”

Chen Mingli said: "You're really right, Mayor Fang is in my car, and I'm preparing to Kaiwen Mountain!" ”

Bai Yuanwei smiled, "Don't be funny, follow my car, let's have dinner!" With that, the phone hung up.

Chen Mingli was a little annoyed: This Bai Yuanwei, how did she know that she would definitely have dinner with him? I'm too confident! But she can't help but be, eighteen years have passed, and there is already a heart and soul between her and this partner. She had to ask Bai Yuanwei to help judge the taste of the cup of coffee she drank, and Bai Yuanwei must have wanted to know Wenshan's thoughts. Judging from Bai Yuanwei's eager attitude, on the premise of ensuring the interests of Weiye International, it is entirely possible for her to help Fang Zhenggang and Wenshan. He didn't care anymore, and ordered the driver to follow Dingbai Yuanwei's car all the way to the seaside avenue.

The dinner venue was set at a private clubhouse on the Gold Coast. The seafood here is well done, and the surrounding scenery is also beautiful, she and Bai Yuanwei used to come often, and the impression was very good. Of course, there was no Lin Xiaoya at that time.

Chen Mingli's topic started with Lin Xiaoya, and she said during the conversation: "Yuan Wei, are you really afraid that I will elope with Fang Zhenggang?" Want to get away with it, right? If I eloped with Fang Zhenggang, wouldn't it just be a fulfillment for you and Director Xiaolin! ”

Bai Yuanwei ate and drank, "Do you still remember this?" How is this possible? Mingli, you're so suspicious! ”

Chen Mingli didn't believe it at all, "Am I suspicious? Bai Yuanwei, who are you throwing away a thousand dollars for in Yinshan City? ”

Bai Yuanwei said kindly and patiently: "Who can it be for?" It's not for the benefit of the group! If it weren't for Zhang Guichun, a bastard, we would have earned more than 30 million yuan just by the difference in the land price of this land! ”

Chen Mingli snorted, "Don't fool me, if it weren't for Zhang Guichun blocking the way, the European town conceived by Lin Xiaoya would have been launched, she is the boss of the real estate company Yinshan, and we still have to invest hundreds of millions!" ”

Bai Yuanwei said: "Yes, it may cost hundreds of millions of dollars, but the house is sold for more than 100 million!" He waved his hand, "Forget it, don't talk about it, since you can't tolerate Lin Xiaoya, then dismiss her and ask her to leave here!" ”

Chen Mingli was surprised, "Hey, Yuan Wei, I'm also talking casually today, don't be rash!" ”

Bai Yuanwei put down his chopsticks, "I'm not acting rashly, in addition to your reasons, there are other factors." Lin Xiaoya is not very suitable for China's national conditions, many things that are commonplace for us are problems in her eyes, and if she doesn't do it, she will make mistakes. For example, arranging a young lady for a high-end customer and giving money to certain people, can you count on her? ”

This is true. Compared with Wang Qiu, the chief executive officer and chief of office who was ousted last year, Lin Xiaoya is simply derelict in this regard. Wang Qiu is also a real expert in this set, giving money and gifts quietly, arranging leisure activities for high-end customers with ease, and even has a few Russian ladies at hand. Chen Mingli couldn't stand it at the time, and always complained in front of Bai Yuanwei, but now she found that this is really one of Wang Qiuye's strengths, if this person didn't betray Old Man Tang, he could really consider asking him back. So he said, "Yuan Wei, you have a point! The social atmosphere is like this, we have to adapt, it seems that we really have to use a director like Wang Qiuye! ”

Bai Yuanwei said: "Since that's the case, then I'll talk to Lin Xiaoya as soon as possible, she seems to have an idea!" ”

Chen Mingli was in a better mood, "Yuan Wei, you can do it, she has the intention of going, it's better to let her leave early!" ”

Only then did Bai Yuanwei ask about Wenshan, "How did you drink coffee with Fang Zhenggang?" Is there a good show? ”

Chen Mingli was happy, touched the glass with Bai Yuanwei, drank all the residual wine in the cup, and said with a smile: "Of course there is a good show, there is a lot of good things in this cup of coffee!" After talking about the relevant situation and Fang Zhenggang's plan, he came to a conclusion first, "However, Yuan Wei, Fang Zhenggang's plan, I personally don't think it can be considered!" ”

Bai Yuanwei sipped his wine, looked at her quietly and asked, "Why?" Tell me your reasoning! ”

Chen Mingli said: "Obviously, this plan is not beneficial to both parties!" The other party is just saying that it is likely to be suspected of new violations, which is too dangerous; For us at Weiye International, there is also a lack of imagination and room for operation! ”

Bai Yuanwei smiled, "Mingli, you have a lot of feelings for the other party, I thought of his danger first!" ”

Chen Mingli also smiled, "Yuan Wei, don't say it, Mayor Fang Zhenggang really moved me today!" ”

Bai Yuanwei said disdainfully: "You'd better be less moved, you can't be emotional in the business field, you should know!" ”

Chen Mingli said: "I don't need you to remind me, I take into account this feeling from the perspective of Weiye International!" He got to the point again, "Yuan Wei, now it's time for you to eat the more than 16 billion deals you said at the beginning. Europa Far East International Investment Company has taken the first step and released the test balloon, but it was not negotiated, and their takeover plan was rejected by Fang Zhenggang and Wu Yaya, isn't this our opportunity? ”

Bai Yuanwei was a little surprised, "Europa Far East International Investment Company is involved?" Do you have a pick-up plan? ”

Chen Mingli nodded, "Yes, Europa Far East International Investment Company's plan is quite interesting: compress the seven million tons of steel in Wenshan Iron and Steel New Area to five million tons, cancel the subsidiary projects, and bear the losses by the Asian Iron and Steel Federation!" ”

Bai Yuanwei was thorough, "No wonder Fang Zhenggang and Wu Yaya didn't agree!" For Wenshan, the three projects are still unfinished, and there is a problem of wind-receiving. For Wu Yaya, the self-owned funds that have been invested have been wasted! ”

Chen Mingli said: "It's not just a matter of losing water, Wu Yaya will also owe nearly one billion!" So although I didn't say it, I thought in my heart that we could come up with a new plan based on Europa Far East International Investment Company's plan. Don't be so black, leave some symbolic shares for Wu Yaya's Asian Steel Federation, at least don't let Wu Yaya owe one billion. The two ancillary projects are not abandoned, but they are included in the continuation of the project and then built, which can achieve a win-win situation for all three parties. ”

Bai Yuanwei fell into the thought before making a decision, stood up and looked at the sea scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and was silent for a long time.

Chen Mingli was afraid that Bai Yuanwei didn't understand, and said excitedly: "The shares of Wu Yaya and the Asian Steel Federation can be demarcated in two subsidiary projects, and the risk is not on us, what we strive to protect is the four core projects!" ”

Bai Yuanwei turned around from the floor-to-ceiling window, "Mingli, this looks tempting, but it's very risky!" The six major projects in Wenshan are being investigated under the pressure of the central government, and the spin-off violations have surfaced, the name has not been resolved, and the concubine's identity is unknown, and it may be forcibly stopped! If this happens, isn't our investment also wasted?! ”

Chen Mingli argued: "I have thought about this question, and the possibility is not too great! It's one thing to investigate and deal with violations of rules and disciplines, it's another thing to minimize losses! Whether it is the central government or the province, they will not watch Wenshan Iron and Steel New Area lose more than 16 billion. The wealth of private enterprises is also the wealth of society, and the central and provincial governments will protect it! ”

Bai Yuanwei shook his head slowly, "But now the situation is not clear, and no one has given us this promise!" ”

Chen Mingli felt that Bai Yuanwei was a little strange, as if he had changed as a person, how could this smart adventurer not have any adventurous spirit at all? Then he said: "Yuan Wei, this is your way of thinking!" Without commitment, it is an opportunity, and we are likely to get the greatest risk and benefit! With commitment, there is no such risk-benefit anymore! ”

Bai Yuanwei still shook his head, "This idea is correct, but the specific situation must be analyzed in detail, and there must be a bottom line for taking risks!" Take the initiative to go to Yinshan to be deceived, the bottom line of the risk we take is that the 12 million land payment cannot be recovered temporarily, and Wenshan, the risk is unlimited, it is likely to become the biggest failure since we started our business! ”

Although this is not unreasonable, Chen Mingli is still unconvinced, "Yuan Wei, the infinite risk you said does exist, but it is not unpreventable!" At least the investment of funds is in phases and batches, and if something is wrong, stop the loss! Our biggest advantage at present is that we have just issued these two billion convertible bonds, and we have abundant funds! ”

Bai Yuanwei smiled bitterly, "Mingli, have you really been hooked by Fang Zhenggang and are you going to be desperate to be martyred for Wenshan?" Let me ask you another question: Do you really know about the black hole of Wenshan? Do you really think that these 200 million can save this pile of steel? These 200 million are the money of shareholders, and we have to be responsible! ”

Chen Mingli was very frustrated, and returned to Fang Zhenggang's plan, "Can Fang Zhenggang's plan be considered?" This is relatively safe, it will not affect our merger and acquisition of the second rolling mill, and we can also get a financing profit! ”

Bai Yuanwei waved his hand, and his voice raised an octave, "This can't be considered, even if it is financing, we can't give it to Wenshan at this time!" Mingli, you have a clear head, don't think about jumping into the fire pit in Wenshan! ”

Chen Mingli couldn't help but scream, "I'm sober!" But you, Yuan Wei, are you old? No more imagination and no more adventurous? We don't dare to take the plate that the little-known Europa Far East International dares to take? You've disappointed me so much! I want you to think again and see if my words make sense! ”

Bai Yuanwei said at this time: "Mingli, don't scream, just let Wenshan toss with the Europa Far East International Investment Company first, our best choice now is to stand still and wait for the final fall of Wenshan!" ”

Chen Mingli seemed to have an understanding, "What do you mean by forcing the Asian Steel Federation to stop work completely?" Create a possible desperate situation? ”

Bai Yuanwei corrected with a smile: "This desperate situation was not created by me, it was created by Wu Yaya's Asian Steel Federation and Fang Zhenggang themselves." I just don't want to give it a blood transfusion, so I can't save it! Then again, why do we have to be saved? Fang Zheng was still very heroic when he had dinner during the Spring Festival, and he didn't want to leave a way out for himself! ”

Chen Mingli was stunned, "Are you too narrow-minded?" Deliberately tidying up because of some kind of hatred or prejudice? ”

Bai Yuanwei returned to the table and sipped his wine, "No, when making decisions, I have neither hatred nor prejudice!" ”

Chen Mingli said: "Hatred may not be able to be talked about, but I know your prejudices about the other party." You also have to understand people, Fang Zhenggang said today, at that time, we really let us blow the bubble bigger, and it was us who suffered! ”

Bai Yuanwei didn't want to talk anymore, "Okay, Mingli, let's sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, come, eat lobster!" ”

Chen Mingli ate the lobster and said again, "We can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, waiting for the best opportunity to take over, but will we lose the opportunity?" What if Europa Far East International or which receiver negotiates with Wenshan? ”

Bai Yuanwei waved his hand and said in a chic manner: "Then forget it, there are many good investment opportunities in this world!" ”

At this moment, the mobile phone rang, and it turned out to be Fang Zhenggang's phone. Chen Mingli wanted to avoid Bai Yuanwei and pick him up outside the door, but she was afraid that Bai Yuanwei would be suspicious, so she took it in front of Bai Yuanwei, "Mayor Fang, do you think of me again?" ”

Fang Zhenggang joked: "That's it, my heart is empty as soon as you leave, and I don't even have the heart to eat dinner!" ”

Chen Mingli said: "Really? Who knows where you're spending your time? Is it poured or soaked now? ”

Fang Zhenggang shouted, "Mr. Chen, you have wronged me!" How can I still spend all my time drinking? I just ate something and pulled it out, no, I was already on the way back to Wenshan, two hundred and twenty kilometers away from Wenshan! ”

Chen Mingli thought about it, so she asked, "Hey, then why did you remember to call me again?" Is there something wrong? ”

Fang Zhenggang said: "Oh, I will inform you of the new situation: Wu Yaya and the senior management of the Asian Iron and Steel Federation hope that you and Bai Yuanwei can go to Wenshan in the next two days to have a look and have a field trip, and Secretary Shi and I are also very welcome to come!" ”

Chen Mingli immediately asked, "Mayor Fang, did you tell Wu Yaya everything about our meeting?" ”

Fang Zhenggang said frankly: "Having said that, Wu Yaya has a very good attitude and a strong desire to cooperate. Tell me that even if he accepts the alliance under the city, he is willing to accept your alliance under the city, and will not consider Europa Far East International! ”

Chen Mingli didn't know how to answer, looked at Bai Yuanwei, and hesitated: "Mayor Fang, don't be in such a hurry, right?" I haven't seen that Mr. Bai yet, and I don't know what his opinion is, I'll talk back in two days! ”

Fang Zhenggang said: "Mr. Chen, don't worry, Wu Yaya just said on the phone, now the debtor unit is crowding the door, the refractory supplier is not supplying, the molten iron project has been stopped today, and I am worried!" ”

Chen Mingli then said: "Okay, I'll discuss with Bai Yuanwei as soon as possible, and strive for the past two days!" ”

As soon as the mobile phone was closed, Bai Yuanwei was immediately unhappy, "Mingli, I want to go to you, I won't go to Wenshan!" ”

Chen Mingli said kindly: "Let's go and have a field trip first, it's no harm!" ”

Bai Yuanwei waved his hand, "NO, now Wu Yaya's Asian Steel Federation is still in the position, what are we going to see?" Boost their morale? Hinting at those creditors, there is still hope for creditors? We're going to collect their bodies! ”

Chen Mingli couldn't say any more, "Yes, yes, that's what you said, waiting for the final fall of Wenshan!" ”

Although this result was not expected in advance, it was also expected. Bai Yuanwei is Bai Yuanwei, and he is always so ruthless in the face of interests. As a result, Fang Zhenggang's expectations will be disappointed. The total fall of Wenshan is just around the corner. The molten iron project has been halted today, and perhaps in three or five days, steelmaking and rolling projects will also be suspended. The man she genuinely admired as mayor might go to the political altar without hesitation after this tragic duel in the end, and perhaps take risks in other ways to commit political suicide.

Chen Mingli couldn't help but feel a little sad, and tears unconsciously filled her eyes. turned his back on Bai Yuanwei and wiped it, and immediately scolded himself in his heart, Chen Mingli, what are you sad about? Who benefited the most from the fall of Wenshan? Isn't it your Weiye International Group? As the second largest shareholder in the group's senior management after Bai Yuanwei, after the occupation of the city, the assets under your name may increase by eight or even nine figures! Your tears are fucking crocodile tears! Because I was upset, I drank too much this night, and in the end, I don't know how I was sent back home by Bai Yuanwei......
