Chapter 879: Early Retirement
Twelve hours later, the plane finally landed at Maputo International Airport, also at 9 a.m. due to the time difference.
South Philippines has changed a lot over the years, and in addition to economic leaps and bounds, there has also been a major event, which is the relocation of the capital from Cape Town to Maputo.
That's why Maputo has an international airport.
As for the relocation of the capital, there are two reasons:
On the one hand, Cape Town's location is too far south, which is not conducive to communication between the north and the south.
Moreover, it is close to the South Philippine Plateau, and the coastal areas are generally steep terraces, and the coastal lowlands are small in area, and the development potential is very limited.
In comparison, Maputo is located in the Great Plains of the East Philippines, and the terrain conditions are much better, and at the same time, it can also promote the development of the island of Madagascar.
On the other hand, because of the coincidence of Xudong that year, Maputo became a hot spot for investment and led to the development of the surrounding urban agglomeration.
Nowadays, the "East Philippine Coastal Economic Belt" centered on Maputo and the "Mediterranean Economic Circle" in the north, one south and one north, together constitute the two major economic centers of the Philippines.
Relocation is inevitable!
As soon as the group left the airport, Captain Zhou immediately pointed to a large group of people in front of him and introduced:
"Dong Xu, Mr. Ye, they came to pick up the airport, and Manager Xu seems to be among them."
Manager Xu in Zhou Yinsheng's mouth refers to Dabao, eight years have passed, and Dabao has now steadily become the leader of the marketing department and a proper senior management of the group.
Xu Dong immediately led the group over.
Ye Hui hasn't changed much over the years, except for a few more wrinkles on her forehead, the whole person still looks shrewd and capable.
"Dong Xu, you have worked hard!"
Xu Dong waved his hand: "It's all said, you don't need to move the people, as long as you can do your job well, it is the greatest support and respect for me." ”
"Dong Xu, if it were normal times, we would definitely not engage in such a big formation. This time is different, no one knows if there will be a next time, the big guys all come over spontaneously. ”
Ye Hui hurriedly explained.
The retirement of the chairman is not a secret, it has long been privately spread among the senior management of the group, this pick-up, on the one hand, everyone wants to express their respect, and on the other hand, they also want to take the opportunity to find out the inside information.
At such a critical moment of the replacement of the old and the new, there will definitely be a big change in personnel, and for everyone, it is both a crisis and an opportunity.
Xu Dong smiled, didn't say anything more, and then shook hands with everyone at the scene one by one.
When it was Dabao's turn, as an old father, looking at his eldest son's mature and steady face, he couldn't help but pat the other party's shoulder.
Dabao straightened his chest slightly, smiled back, and everything was silent.
……
After the pick-up, Xu Dong did not return to the company, but directly sent everyone away.
Then I got into my eldest son's car, and the company was not in a hurry, so I went to my eldest son's house to rest for two days, and then took a look at the small seaweed by the way.
Speaking of which, the grandfather and grandson haven't seen each other for more than two years.
Certainly not to save money on road tolls.
The main reason is that in the past two years, there have been floods everywhere, inconvenient transportation, and the outbreak of super flu in the Philippines, so for safety reasons, I can only choose to spend the New Year in place.
On the way home, the father and son chatted about family life.
After some greetings, Dabao went straight to the point:
"Dad, are you really going to retire early?"
Xu Dong nodded, and couldn't help but quip: "What, are you afraid?" ”
"Ahem, I'm not afraid, the main thing is that I don't know the bottom of my heart..."
"Afraid of what? The chairman's job is much easier than that of your department manager, you have done a good job over the years, you are absolutely competent, and you can put your heart in your stomach. ”
"I originally planned to go back to Sydney this year and study hard for another two years with you."
Dabao replied.
"Don't be so troublesome, call directly if you have something, even if your dad is retired, he can still teach you."
Xu Dong waved his hand.
Dabao breathed a sigh of relief, and then changed the conversation:
"Dad, do you think the board of directors can agree to my succession?"
Three years ago, in order to go public, the subsidiary of Nanfei has been reorganized into Nanfei Hi-Tech Group, and their family is currently the largest individual shareholder, holding 15.21% of the shares.
Theoretically, his father's position as chairman is not very secure.
"Don't worry." Xu Dong hurriedly reassured, "Our family's shares, plus those of the South Philippine Chamber of Commerce, plus the Nisang Chamber of Commerce, are already halfway through." ”
"Dad, President Liu, they must be on our side, the Nisang Chamber of Commerce maybe, they have been so prosperous over the years, I'm afraid they will secretly interfere."
Xu Dong frowned: "Did you hear any rumors?" ”
"I do hear that the Nissan Chamber of Commerce has been very close to the Babylonians in recent years, and if they join forces, they will attract some major shareholders......"
"Impossible." Xu Dong immediately interrupted, "Even if they are united, the shares are far from enough, and the group is not allowed to fall into the hands of outsiders." ”
"Dad, it's not that I'm alarmist, this matter really can't be guarded against, after all, ......"
"After all, what? Don't sell it. ”
"I've also heard that the Nisang Chamber of Commerce seems to have a lot of grievances against our family."
"Why?" Xu Dong asked.
"Dad, you forgot, in the first phase of the project, the Nisang Chamber of Commerce lent you hundreds of billions of start-up funds.
As a result, not only did they not get any shares, but they also did not receive even a dime of interest.
If you look at the current market value of the group, if it were you, would you be willing? ”
Dabao hurriedly reminded.
Since its listing, the stock price of ST Group has risen all the way by taking advantage of the shareholder wind of foreign trade, and now, the market value has directly exceeded 3 trillion yuan.
Even with his father's net worth, he also broke through the 500 billion mark in one fell swoop, and if you count the donated share dividends, it is estimated that it will already break 600 billion.
Xu Dong patted his thigh: "You're wrong, they didn't lend me money, they lent it to Xinke Seaweed, otherwise I wouldn't have only had such a few shares."
Besides, in order to develop the industrial zone, they begged me for a loan, but now the industrial zone has developed, which is obviously a win-win situation. ”
"Dad, don't be fooled by the Nisan people, I have dealt with them a lot over the years, these people seem to be gentle and elegant on the surface, but in fact, they are very small-minded, and they love to hold grudges."
"Oh? How so? ”
Dabao replied in a low voice: "I found that there is a phenomenon of labor abuse in the factories of the Nisan people, and there are many deaths. ”
"Labor abuse? Aren't they afraid of being investigated? ”
Xu Dong was taken aback.
"They are abusing foreign workers, most of them are laborers from Europa, and you know from the European Union, the poor are scumbags, and a life can be wiped out at most 100,000 yuan."
Dabao couldn't help but sigh.
After so many years of development, although the European Union has made a lot of achievements, it has not improved much because of the predicament of poverty and whiteness in China.
It's a little stronger than Tianzhu people.
"They're fine, why do they want to abuse labor?"
"Because the Nisan people have a bad reputation in the Philippines, in order to save costs, they like to squeeze laborers, and often deduct workers' wages, which has caused a lot of criticism.
Although those foreign workers did not dare to resign, their mouths were indispensable, and they arranged various Nisan people in private, and the two sides accumulated a lot of contradictions. ”
Dabao replied patiently.
Xu Dong nodded clearly, this is indeed very in line with the character of the Nisang people.
With the marginal status of the Nisan people today, they can only quickly become bigger and stronger in order to occupy one acre and three points of land in the growing system of Yahu.
Time waits for no one!
