Chapter 24: Thunder rumbles
On Monday morning, I arrived at the office at 8:30 a.m.
After 10 o'clock at 9 o'clock, Zhang Qiang and Lao Dong knocked on the door and came in.
They came back from last night's flight, they didn't seem to be resting well, their faces were tired, they came in and sat on the sofa, and they were silent.
I asked Min to make three cups of coffee and bring them in.
"Great work! Shenlu's thing is a bit difficult, what countermeasures do you have? ”
I asked in as relaxed a tone as I could.
"Mr. Dong and I also discussed for a long time on the way back, but it was really difficult to do, and there was no good countermeasure."
Zhang Qiang replied.
"Then we can't sit still, can we? Lao Dong, what do you think? Just wait for them to go to court and sue us? ”
"Taking the legal route is actually not the best way for them, because the litigation cycle will be relatively long, they have to get the money, it is impossible not to have half a year, and we can still appeal."
"You say they're just threatening us? Put pressure on us to the limit? ”
"Not necessarily, it mainly depends on how bad their financial situation is now, how much pressure the P2P platform has to pay years ago, and it cannot be ruled out that they will jump over the wall in a hurry."
Zhang Qiang analyzed.
"Well, so how do we deal with it now?"
I pressed them back.
"Mr. Zeng, can you use the 1 billion you lent to the company to buy back some of it first?"
Lao Dong said tentatively: "Even if we repurchase 500 million first, show our sincerity, and try to delay the Spring Festival?" ”
"That's a solution!" Zhang Qiang echoed: "Let's show sincerity, and I can negotiate with Mr. Li and them again." ”
"This ......"
I think this may be the solution, and maybe it can also relieve the pressure on both sides.
But at this time, I remembered Liu Hongjun's expectant eyes, so I said to Mr. Dong: "This may be a solution, but I have a request, which cannot affect the equipment purchase payment of the automobile company." If you want to pick from other places, the supplier should try to negotiate, or can the year-end bonus be postponed? ”
Lao Dong and Zhang Qiang stopped talking.
This not only affects their vital interests, but also undoubtedly affects employee morale.
"I'll do the math first!"
Finally, Lao Dong said.
"Okay, you calculate the amount, we'll discuss it again, and then go and negotiate with Shenlu as soon as possible."
I said, "I have one more thing to discuss with you today. ”
They looked up at me, a little confused.
"Someone reported to me that there was a problem with the procurement of overseas event content from a sports company, what do you think?"
I asked them tentatively.
"It's hard to say!"
Zhang Qiang first said: "I have also heard some rumors, but all the procurement of sports companies is according to the process!" ”
Lao Dong did not speak.
"Have you all reviewed it? Is the content purchased in line with the market? Is the price inflated? ”
I asked again.
"This is all reviewed according to the process, there is market analysis, there are also price comparison and bidding records, and Wei is always an expert in the sports industry, he must know better than us!"
Lao Dong said a little dissatisfied, he probably had an unspoken sentence: "Didn't you personally go to the United States to dig him up?" ”
"Hey, I sometimes look away!"
I couldn't help but sigh.
The two were taken aback.
"I talked to him on Saturday and he confessed."
I decided not to play hide and seek with them anymore and told them:
"I ask him to hand over the review report and resignation report to me today for processing."
"Ah, what the hell is going on?"
Zhang Qiang's eyes widened and asked, "Why did you suddenly ......?" ”
"We'll discuss the details later."
I waved my hand and said:
"Now first of all, let's discuss: who will take over the sports company?"
Zhang Qiang and Lao Dong both thought about it.
"How is Yang Tingna, the vice president of the sports company?"
Zhang Qiang thought for a while and said, "She is an old man who is Yewang Sports, she was transferred from a film and television company when the sports company was established, and she is more familiar with the sports company, and now she is the vice president in charge of marketing and sales, which can ensure a smooth transition and the business will not be affected." ”
Yang Tingna's ability is okay, she is familiar with sports companies as a whole, the only drawback is that she just gave birth to her second child last year, and now her energy is a little scattered.
"I also thought of a personal choice, that is, Lin Jun of the group's strategy department, he also participated in the preparation of the sports company, and his comprehensive ability is relatively strong, he has a global view, and he also has the ability to raise foreign financing, he is the boss of Yewang Sports, do you think it will be more suitable than Yang Tingna?"
I thought about it for a long time last night, and I felt that Lin Jun was young, broad-minded, and strong in execution, and he might be more suitable than Tao Hai and Zhu Qingyang to be at the helm of Yewang Sports.
Lao Dong nodded and said, "I think Lin Jun's ability is good, and he should be competent." ”
Seeing this, Zhang Qiang also agreed: "Of course Lin Jun is better, yes, I suggest that Yang Tingna can be promoted to executive vice president to assist Lin Jun to ensure that the transition is foolproof." “
"Yes, that's it."
I said, "When Wei Hong submits his resignation report in the morning, you can talk to the two of them immediately, and then convene a meeting of the management of the sports company to arrange the handover as soon as possible." ”
Zhang Qiang nodded.
"However, there is another situation that we need to be prepared for,"
I said worriedly: "What if Wei Hong doesn't cooperate and doesn't take the initiative to resign and hand over?" ”
"Will that happen?"
Lao Dong asked in surprise: "Didn't you talk to him on Saturday?" It's rare that he will change his hexagram? ”
"Hey, I'm just worried,"
I sighed, "I'm afraid he takes money too seriously and won't be able to turn around." ”
"How much money did Mr. Wei take? What are you going to do with him? ”
Zhang Qiang asked, staring into my eyes.
"If he has a good attitude, returns the stolen money, and cooperates with the handover, I will consider not dealing with it publicly. After all, at this time, negative news can have a big impact on stock prices. "I didn't have the heart to discuss the details of Wei Hong's corruption with them," but if he was lucky, refused to cooperate, or passively resisted the investigation, I could only punish him severely!" ”
"Hey, what a bad time!"
Lao Dong sighed.
"Anyway, let's wait for a long time to see what he does, and then we'll discuss. However, Lao Dong, all financial payments of the sports company must be suspended immediately. In addition, the group's audit department was immediately prepared to enter the sports company to conduct an internal audit of the accounts in the past two years, and to produce an audit report before the Spring Festival. ”
"Good! I'll arrange it right away. ”
Lao Dong and Zhang Qiang went back to their office worriedly, and I looked at my watch, and it was 10:25.
"Why hasn't Wei Hong come yet? Will he not come? ”
My heart was pounding.
I sat back in my office chair, picked up the phone in the office, and dialed the internal phone number of Xiao Min outside the door:
"Xiao Min, call Mr. Wei and ask him what time will he arrive in the morning? Said I was waiting for him. ”
"Okay, Mr. Zeng.".
Ten minutes later, Min knocked on the door and came in, and said to me in a little confused:
"Mr. Zeng, Mr. Wei's mobile phone is turned off, and the WeChat voice is not answered."
