135. Infighting

It wasn't early, and Xu Xin didn't immediately call to disturb others.

It wasn't until the next morning that he dialed Zhou Shuqing's phone.

According to the habits of these big bosses, leaving a phone for others is basically a secretary's phone.

However, after the previous football game, Zhou Shuqing knew Xu Xin's specific identity, and seemed to appreciate Xu Xin, a young man, and left Xu Xin's phone number.

There weren't many calls that went directly to his mobile phone.

The phone was connected, and Zhou Shuqing said bluntly: "Xu Xin, I heard Secretary He say that you met yesterday." ”

"Yes, I chatted with Secretary He for a while yesterday."

"I'm inspecting the football club, do you have time to visit the club?"

"Okay," Xu Xin was thinking about meeting and talking to Zhou Shuqing, but he didn't expect the other party to be so understanding, and took the initiative to invite him, "When are you free?" ”

"Come over now, come here from Happiness City, it will only take more than an hour, and I will be here today."

"See you or leave!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xin told his father about the car, and drove directly to the provincial capital.

Hongchen Football Club does not have its own competition venues at present, and the Chinese Super League matches in the past few years have been rented stadiums in provincial capitals.

The club's headquarters are located on the outskirts of the northern part of the provincial capital, where there are excellent training facilities.

Xu Xin drove into the club smoothly, and under the leadership of a special person, he came to the gym next to the training ground and met Zhou Shuqing.

Zhou Shuqing was ironing, sweating like rain.

No wonder he is forty or fifty years old, has a strong muscle, and is inseparable from his hobby of fitness.

"I'm sorry to have you come so far to see me."

Zhou Shuqing took the towel handed over by others, wiped the sweat on his face, and smiled apologetically at Xu Xin.

"Why don't you meet at your group headquarters?" Xu Xin seemed to ask recklessly, but in fact, it was deliberate.

Is this questioning his position within the group?

Zhou Shuqing threw the towel aside and said without hesitation: "At the group headquarters, I am a thorn in the side of many people. ”

Sit down in the lounge area, and the green training ground is outside the window.

It's the end of November, the games have entered the off-season, the players have been on vacation, and the training ground is empty.

After Zhou Shuqing added a little water, he went straight to the topic and said, "What is the relationship between Zhao Sheng and you?" ”

"He's my uncle." Xu Xin withdrew his gaze from the window.

"You came over today to solve the problem for Zhao Sheng?"

"I don't have that much energy." Xu Xin's mind is very clear.

Zhou Shuqing wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and groaned: "Zhao Sheng found Secretary He through Hu Jixing, an engineer of our group, and Secretary He found me here.

Equipment leasing is indeed part of the work that our group is studying.

My opinion is to agree with Zhao Sheng's company to cooperate with our group, and also to greet the group's management. ”

"Here, I have to say thank you for my uncle." Xu Xin said sincerely.

"If it doesn't work out, there's no need to say thanks."

Zhou Shuqing seemed to open up the matter and said, "Hu Jixing used to be the director of the technical department of our group, but he has been taken off in recent years, because many people think that Hu Jixing is my person."

By the way, within our group, there is often the same statement, there are two factions, one faction is headed by me, and the other faction is headed by my eldest brother Zhou Shushan. ”

"My uncle's equipment leasing was ultimately vetoed by Zhou Shushan?"

"Yes."

Zhou Shuqing crossed his fingers and said slowly: "This matter is not simply a matter of cooperation, but involves some struggles of the group's management.

Zhou Shushan did this, not against Zhao Sheng, but at me.

He wanted me to resign as chairman as soon as possible. ”

It's a family affair within someone else's group.

Xu Xin's shoulders shrugged and did not speak.

"I also hope that Zhou Shushan will leave the group as soon as possible."

Zhou Shuqing looked at Xu Xin and asked, "Do you know which company finally signed the equipment lease with the group?" ”

"Huh?" Xu Xin waited for the other party to take the next words.

"Wangcai Equipment Company, the legal person is an old man in a remote mountain village, and the actual controller is Zhou Shushan's wife. In fact, the so-called Wangcai Equipment Company is just a leather bag company, and the final provider of equipment may be Zhao Sheng, or it may be other second-pack companies. ”

"Hmm." Xu Xin didn't know why the other party said this matter in such detail.

"Not only the equipment leasing part, but also the projects outsourced every year, as well as the various enterprises that cooperate with the group, are basically inextricably linked with Zhou Shushan's family.

Let's just say that a piece of business you are familiar with, mineral exploration technology, and the annual investment in mercury mining technology are tens of millions! ”

When Zhou Shuqing talked about the struggle within the group, he did not spit impassionedly like an angry youth, he was very calm, as if he was talking about someone else's story.

Just yesterday, Xu Xin just learned about one thing, Zhou Shushan's son Zhou Runyu is the deputy general manager of Hongchen Group.

If Zhou Shuqing's words just now were not adulterated, then it can be said that Zhou Shushan's family went into battle to gather wool for Hongchen Group.

Presumably Zhou Shuqing has not yet reached the age of napping and gossiping by the fire, and he must have something to mean when he said such a tirade.

Seeing Xu Xin's thoughtful eyes, Zhou Shuqing did not hide his final thoughts, "I want to take back control of the group." ”

"You think highly of me, I can't help with this matter at all." Xu Xin even felt that he was still a layman in business management, not to mention these deceitful struggles.

"I need an explanation, or a fuse, to be able to identify the contradictions and positions of both sides, and then quickly resolve this matter head-on."

Zhou Shuqing obviously has a plan, and in his plan, he arranged a role similar to cannon fodder for Xu Xin, "Our Hongchen Group's business is mainly mercury mines, and mineral resources are consumables, and with the passage of time, the resources will become less and less, and they will be exhausted one day."

In recent years, under the leadership of Zhou Shushan, the group has intensified its efforts to exploit mercury resources, but its profits have been declining year by year.

It's not just me who has an opinion, but other shareholders are already complaining.

On the board, I think I'm on the side of the people. ”

Xu Xin was thinking about the other party's words.

Many things were beyond his comprehension, and it was even difficult to discern the truth of each sentence in it.

He doesn't think that Zhou Shuqing must be standing on the high ground of morality or justice.

Contradictions arise when interests are different.

Everyone stands in their own perspective and is the one who holds the truth.

Seeing that Xu Xin was silent, Zhou Shuqing picked up the water bottle and took a sip of water, was silent for a long time, and then slowly spoke: "I used to be the general manager of the group, responsible for the operation of the group, and then ...... Do you know why I'm in power? ”

Xu Xin was actually not very interested in the other party's deeds.

Zhou Shuqing turned his head to look at the surrounding scenery, his movements and expressions already spoke for themselves.

"I bought this football club for 500 million yuan and hollowed out the group's cash flow. Originally, it was planned to use this as an opportunity to vigorously develop the mountain spring water business. My idea is that we have laid sales channels around the mountain spring water, as long as we rely on the hot topic of football, we will be able to completely open up the national market and raise a cash cow! ”

Zhou Shuqing said, showing a wry smile to Xu Xin, "Increasing publicity, upgrading production lines, opening up channels, etc., each step requires a lot of money."

The board of directors thought that I was using the group's funds to satisfy my hobby, so it vetoed the next investment and cut off my plan.

Football clubs, really just football clubs, really became my hobby. ”

Having said so much, Xu Xin still didn't quite understand what the other party wanted to do.

These words will not be spoken to him for no reason.

"I can understand your situation."

Xu Xin raised his eyes, "I came here today, in fact, I just want to consult with you about my uncle's equipment leasing, is there still the possibility of cooperating with your group?" ”

"What I just told you is talking to you about Zhao Sheng."

"Huh?" Xu Xin's mind was full of question marks.

"I need to have a voice before I can actually make decisions."

Zhou Shuqing saw Xu Xin's eyes full of confusion, and directly picked out the words, "I have found many well-known exploration and technical units in the province, and they seem to be unwilling to cooperate with our group, and in some aspects, our group's reputation has not become very good." ”

Many exploration technology companies already know that it is not easy to get the balance payment when cooperating with Hongchen Group.

The reason for this can be guessed by people outside.

"You want us to help you with the survey?" Xu Xin understood.

A few days ago, at the headquarters of Fu Phosphorus Group, the other party talked about this topic positively.

"I know what you have done on the Yantugou bauxite project, and you have been able to thoroughly understand the situation of the ore layer by summarizing the old data, and come up with a good deposit map, which is enough to guide the mining operations.

Hu Jixing specially contacted Qian's Mining, and after reading the information you made yourself, he was full of praise for you!

To say that you not only refute the huge erroneous view of large deposits, but also find out the true situation of the lenticular ore body, your skill level cannot be compared with that of ordinary geologists. ”

Zhou Shuqing brought the topic back to Hongchen Group, "Our Hongchen Group's annual investment in exploration is very huge, and all kinds of information are very complete!"

But it is impossible to understand the situation of the underground mine. ”

"Mercury ore is special, and the grade of the ore layer is often variable." Xu Xin's understanding of mercury mining is only taken from his father's words.

"So I need you to come over and do my work!"

Zhou Shuqing's long speech is actually to pave the way for this sentence, "Like the Yantugou bauxite project, I will give you 30 million and hire you as the technical consultant of our group!" ”

Xu Xin is short of money, but today is not here to make money, "My uncle Zhao Sheng's side ......"

"After you finish the exploration work, I will give you a packing ticket here, and I can even sign an agreement with you, and Zhao Sheng's equipment will be able to enter the mine immediately!"

And I don't say anything else, in terms of equipment rental costs, it is definitely higher than the market price! ”

Zhou Shuqing waved his hand, his language was uplifting, and it was very inspiring.

He has fully revealed his attitude, and he also sincerely wants to cooperate.

Moreover, he was so sure that Xu Xin was the key to unlocking the shackles.

Xu Xin sighed secretly.

This matter is not simply to provide exploration technical services, but to be involved in the contradictions and disputes within the Hongchen Group.

If you don't do it well, you will offend a large number of people.

"I'll give you an answer to this matter tomorrow, do you think it's appropriate?"

"No problem, I'll wait for your call."

Zhou Shuqing laughed and beckoned into the distance.

Secretary He walked briskly, nodded at Xu Xin, and then bent slightly towards Zhou Shuqing, "Dong Zhou." ”

"You inform the key personnel of the group's management to hold a high-level meeting the day after tomorrow."

"What's on the agenda?"

"The Fu Phosphorus Group has asked us to stabilize the output of mercury ore and increase the supply in the future, which requires the mobilization of the entire group."

"Okay."

"Wait, you go and inform the management here first, and open the doors of the locker room, honor room, and store."

"Okay." Secretary He walked away quickly.

Zhou Shuqing stood up and beckoned to Xu Xin, "The players are on vacation, so I can't give you the player's signed jersey, next time I have time to come over and make up for you."

Let's go, I'll take you on a tour of our Hongchen Football Club! ”

Xu Xin, accompanied by Zhou Shuqing, visited the entire Hongchen Football Club.

After dinner together in the evening, he went straight home.
