1. Dangers lurk
In the huge office of the CEO of Qingcheng Jianji Group, Guo Zilin held his chin with his hand, staring at the enlarged version of the photo of the wedding scene in front of the computer screen for a long time, the newlyweds under the high-powered SLR camera, the man was handsome, with a rare smile on his face, he was dressed in black and the luxury wedding dress that came from Enzoaniblue at first glance when he was dressed in a black suit and the newlywed, complemented each other, and made people unable to take their eyes off.
But Guo Zilin's eyes were full of pain. That kind of beauty is destined not to belong to you. She once thought that the handsome and desirable groom she should have, but now she doesn't take it for granted.
Ding zero zero, ding zero zero, the phone rang, Guo Zilin came to her senses after a while, closed the web page in front of her, and quickly adjusted her emotions to a state of struggle.
The call was from the secretary Leona, and she asked carefully: "Mr. Guo, Mr. Li, the director of the finance department, is outside to see you." ”
"Invite him in."
Guo Zilin hung up the phone, tapping on the desktop with the pen, while thinking about the company's current situation. Mr. Li came to the bank for the two billion yuan that the group borrowed from the bank a while ago to expand its routes is about to expire, and the company's cash flow now does not have so much money.
She took over Jianji and knew that managing a large group required all aspects to coordinate so many things, and she didn't have the life of being the shopkeeper, and the two billion was the basket she had poked out of the original special assistant Uncle Qin. Guo Zilin doesn't understand the shipping logistics at all, and asks her what clothing elements are the most popular this season, she can be like a few treasures with you, and she is like a stream, but you have to ask her which route is the most profitable, which route will have a business impact on the whole big trade environment next season, and what adjustments need to be made, she is completely confused.
Uncle Qin can be regarded as a special assistant who has followed Guo Jianguo for several years, and Guo Zilin trusts him as much as he trusts his father. So when he proposed to increase European routes, increase ships, increase personnel, and contact new terminals, Guo Zilin gave him full authority to deal with it.
This is already a year ago, according to the bank loan contract at that time, now need to return 50% of the principal, that is, one billion, the European route has been repeatedly difficult to deliver, so far has not been put into operation, to be precise, this is simply a multi-line setting, the newly purchased ships are in place, but there is no cargo pull, only one-third of the capacity is running, the rest are eating money every day, and other routes are saturated, there is no way to make reasonable use of resources. This hot potato, Guo Zilin can only hold it by herself.
Mr. Li knocked on the door, heard Guo Zilin's voice and came in.
"Uncle Li, what's new now?"
Most of the company's senior executives are Guo Zilin's elders, and Guo Zilin calls them like this with their seniority, which makes people feel close. But managing the company is not something that can be done by getting close. The closer you are, the easier it is to get into trouble.
Mr. Li, the chief financial officer, spread out the documents in his hand and put them on the table in front of Guo Zilin, shook his head and said: "The situation is not very ideal, this is the audit report of the new European routes that we asked the accounting firm, excluding the various points in the early stage of this project and the cargo ship moored at our wharf now, the remaining three ships are leased to a shipping company in Qingdao, and the lease contract has been signed for five years, that is, it has cost us nearly one billion yuan in the past five years." Among them, the cat is greasy, and naturally the money goes into the pockets of individuals. ”
"What? Which ships are not ours? Didn't the company have a previous censorship? ”
Guo Zilin heard cold sweat coming out. Originally, I thought that although this route was an investment failure, at least the ship was still there, and there was really no way for her to sublease or resell, and she could cash out a part of the cash flow, which was enough to deal with the bank's problems. But what is she going to do to alleviate this crisis now?
"It's a lease contract. Of course, the company's review system is very complete, but Uncle Qin is the veteran of Jianji, he knows where there are loopholes to drill, this time it is to play a word game on the declaration of the project, when you approved the project funds are two billion, and signed the project purchase list provided by Uncle Qin, but did not particularly emphasize whether to buy or lease ships, just wrote: for the use of ships, dock construction and personnel needed for the route. ”
Guo Zilin felt a heartache, and she was to blame that she didn't understand how deep the water was. But why did Uncle Qin do this? He is also the patriarch of Jianji, and the assets in his account are enough for him and his son to spend in their lifetimes.
"I heard that Uncle Qin's son lost a lot of money in Macau, and he borrowed loan sharks again, so he didn't dare to tell his family that he owed a big hole, and Uncle Qin didn't have enough to fill in his old book, so he moved the idea of the project."
Mr. Li said to Guo Zilin.
"So what do we do now?"
Guo Zilin is really out of line.
"Do you want to report the crime?"
Mr. Li suggested, and then said: "Sue Uncle Qin for fraud, all this evidence is there, he will definitely not be able to escape." But once the case is filed, then our new European line will be completely out of play. Affected by the financial downturn in Europe, this year's foreign trade business volume has shrunk by 80% year-on-year. Why do people give their business to us, a company that has no guarantee by leasing other people's ships? ”
"But I won't allow such a thing to happen in the company again, if I don't conduct a thorough investigation of Uncle Qin's matter this time, it will be a kind of connivance."
Guo Zilin said indignantly.
"Uncle Qin is such a shrewd person, I haven't seen him for the past few days, and it is very likely that he already felt it when we asked the accounting firm to start auditing this project. By this time, he was probably in a country that we couldn't find. ”
"Too much deception!"
Guo Zilin was really about to explode, she pressed the phone of her secretary Leona and said neatly: "Ask Uncle Qin to come to my office immediately." ”
There was silence in the office, Mr. Li and Guo Zilin were waiting for Leona's reply, waiting for the office door to be knocked, but after a while, Leona's report came: "Uncle Qin had left the country three days ago, and his secretary said that he had gone to Europe to contact the new route." ”
Guo Zilin sat weakly on the leather chair and waved her hand to let Leona out. What she is sad about is not the two billion, but a kind of fear, she doesn't know how many two hundred million crises are hidden in this huge Jianji Group that she can't be aware of, and she is afraid that her father's hard work will be defeated in her hands.
After all, Mr. Li is the veteran of Jianji, and he has experienced such storms and waves over the years, so he seems much calmer. He looked at the female boss in front of him who was still immature and wanted to do a good job but was powerless and said: "This billion, although the company is about the same, but it can't make up all the working capital for this matter, which will bring a greater crisis." If you don't see if any of your acquaintances can help borrow it, the next step is for our strong man to break his wrist, cut off this line, and put some cash back to pay it back. On the other hand, let's go to Uncle Qin and let him spit out as much as he can. ”
