"There was a temporary accident with that fund......

Zhu Cong spoke very slowly and calmly.

"Huh? What did you say! ”

Like a thunderbolt striking the door in front of him, Li Ji cried out in a lost voice.

The telephone receiver in his hand "bang", fell on the desktop, jumped twice in a row, and rolled down.

Spiral-wound telephone cords hung and swung open, and the handset hung straight down, dangling from the edge of the table, rocking around.

"Hey, hey! Mr. Li! Zhu Cong's somewhat hurried voice came from the microphone, "Are you listening?" ”

Li Ji only felt that the strength in his body was dissipated, his legs were weak, and he almost collapsed.

He gasped, his lips trembling slightly, and he bent down with great effort and grabbed the earpiece in his hand again.

"I, I'm listening...... Listening to ...... Li Ji steady his mind, his voice trembled a little, "Mr. Zhu, you say, you say ......"

"Originally, I said that I would repay your loan first, but at the end of the month, the group had a batch of corporate bonds that needed to be redeemed when they matured, amounting to more than 230 million. Coming and going, there is still a gap of more than 100 million yuan, and it is difficult for the group to raise such a large amount of money in a short period of time, so it has to use this fund to advance ......"

After a pause, Zhu Cong said again: "You also know that the group's funds have been quite tight recently. We are a listed company, once there is a situation where we cannot pay, what will be the consequences, I don't need to say, you probably know ......"

"I, I know......" Li Ji held the corner of the table with one hand, feeling weak.

He can definitely understand the current situation of the Marriott Group, but who is in charge of his business?

If Marriott Group can't repay this loan at the end of the month, he Li Ji will have no choice but to roll up and leave.

For a while, Li Ji's face turned pale, and his heart sank little by little like a piece of lead.

He really wanted to call Wan Daming again. But he also knew that if it wasn't for the last resort, Wan Daming would not lose his words to himself.

Maybe Marriott Group has really reached a life-and-death juncture, but this time, he has really been forced into a dead end.

It is said that there is no endless road.

Grandma's, where is the road?

Is a dead end also a road?!

Li Ji remembered the advertising slogan: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and there must be a Toyota car when there is a road." ”

Blame yourself for not having a Toyota.

Li Ji knew that Wan Daming definitely didn't know his miserable situation. But in the current situation, Li Ji really can't open his mouth to Wan Daming anymore.

Li Ji believes that as long as he tells Wan Daming, no matter how difficult the group's funds are, Wan Daming will not hesitate to pay back this money first, and will not let himself lose his job.

Over the years, Wan Daming has indeed treated Li Ji as his own child.

Li Ji's father died early, consciously or unconsciously, and he also regarded Wan Daming as his father.

Wan Daming was very optimistic about Li Ji, and once wanted to marry his daughter Wan Min to him. Later, I heard that Li Ji had already had a girlfriend, so I gave up.

The old man had unspeakable regret in his heart. In front of Li Ji, he said it several times, and complained about Wancheng vigorously that he didn't give his sister Zhang Luo earlier.

At this time, Li Ji listened to Zhu Cong's words, and his heart was full of feelings.

"The people who buy bonds are ordinary people, and if they don't pay them, they won't turn the sky upside down? How much of an impact it will have on the company's share price! At this time, I don't dare to make any more trouble. Zhu Cong continued, "The money in your bank is public, in the end, it is better to say, don't you say, Mr. Li?" ”

"Yes, yes......" Li Ji mechanically agreed, but his head was buzzing.

His second uncle, the people's money is money, and it must be paid; The bank's loan is not money, you can repay it if you want to, and you can't repay it if you don't want to? Or is it okay?!

Li Ji had a bitter face, not knowing what to do.

"Wan Dong specially instructed me to call you to say it, I'm really sorry, Mr. Li." Zhu Cong paused, "Wan Dong said that he is also thinking of other ways to see if he can make up another 100 million ......."

"Got it......" Without waiting for Zhu Cong to say anything, Li Ji had already buckled the phone heavily on the chassis.

His heart was completely cold.

Another 100 million? Say it lightly. As far as Marriott's current financial situation is concerned, it is basically an empty word.

Finished.

Play it thoroughly.

Not to mention cucumber vegetables, even cucumber seedlings have been pulled.

Li Ji sat slumped in his chair, his heart ached, and he regretted the "righteous and awe-inspiring" words he said in Cui Hao's office before.

This loan, and then go to Wan Daming, is unlikely.

This money is important to oneself and is life-saving money; It is also life-saving money for Wan Daming and Marriott Group, and it may be even more important.

What he lost was a job, Wan Daming may have lost a group, and tens of thousands of employees in the group lost tens of thousands of jobs.

Even if it's to do something for the dead Wancheng.

You can't make it worse, or at least it shouldn't be worse.

I have suffered one, and I am happy.

Although it is not "tens of millions", it is also related to the livelihood of a group and tens of thousands of people.

It's worth it, it's worth it.

Li Ji thought like this, and his heart gradually became happy. For a moment, he felt so tall, so majestic, like a green pine standing proudly on the edge of a cliff, like the hero who rushed to the bridge with a bag of explosives.

But soon, Li Ji wilted.

A dark cloud passed over his heart, and his face sank, as if it was going to rain at any moment.

Marriott is fine, but what can I do?

Resign, get out, live on the streets?

Being ridiculed and ridiculed?

Since then, I can't eat enough food and clothing?

Become a blind stream?

One thought after another flashed in Li Ji's mind, and his body trembled involuntarily.

A chill hit, and Li Ji involuntarily shrank up, like a little hedgehog who was suddenly frightened.

Thinking of Liao Ying, thinking of her mother, and the married life she had been looking forward to, Li Ji suddenly felt afraid, and for a while, he was also uncontrollable and uneasy.

He felt out of breath.

In the room, it was obviously the bright sunlight, and it was as warm as a roast, but he still felt cold.

Li Ji held his head in his hands and racked his brains to think.

He muttered to himself from time to time. The face will be cloudy for a while, and sunny for a while; There is a moment of joy in the eyes, and a moment of frustration; His teeth clenched his lower lip and he sighed.

After going back and forth, back and forth, and tossing for most of the day, Li Ji finally made up his mind: go back again, apologize to Cui Hao seriously, and agree to his conditions.

If you don't know it, you don't know it.

In this world, who dares to say that he can get to the bottom of everything and figure it out.

As the saying goes, it's hard to get confused.

Those who achieve great things are not informal.

Right now, for Li Ji, the biggest thing is to keep his job first.

Jobs matter.

Back the pot, back the pot, the world's "back pot" is the greatest.

Anyway, it doesn't hurt or itch, and there won't really be a pot for you to carry. No one can see it except you know it in your own heart.

Take a step back and naturally open the sky.

However, thinking about Cui Hao's face, Li Ji was angry again.

Yue Fei, Yue Fei!

Somehow, Li Ji remembered the commentary "The Biography of Yue Fei" that Liu Lanfang had heard when he was a child.

In this world, where is there no ghost and wronged man? One more, it's not impossible.

Damn, it's too high.

Ants are compared to elephants.

, shameless.

It's ridiculous.

It's too far.

Besides, Yue Fei has a half-dime relationship with himself.

Cui Hao, he is not Qin Hui, could it be that President Tao is Song Gaozong?

Throughout the ages, those who were first stabbed were those with straight waists, stiff necks, and rushing to speak.

can bend and stretch her husband, and would rather bend than bend a silly boy.

has lived for almost thirty years, and at this moment, Li Ji actually figured it out and figured it out.

He straightened the expression on his face, although his smile was still stiff, but in his heart, his thoughts changed sharply, and his realm was opened.

Li Ji imagined the scene of himself standing in front of Cui Hao: "Mr. Cui, I was too reckless to speak just now. I beg your pardon for agreeing to your conditions......"

Halfway through speaking, Li Ji suddenly stopped. A smile on his face, I can't tell how ugly it is, how far-fetched.

He shook his head violently, jerked his right foot up, and stomped on his left foot.

Damn, did I, Li Ji, become such a person?!

Li Ji leaned back in his chair and lost his mind for a moment.

The phone rang.

Li Ji was startled, subconsciously grabbed his mobile phone, didn't look at it, fumbled and pressed the answer button, and put it in his ear: "Hey, which one?" ”

"It's me," the voice was soft and soft, like a breeze sweeping through the treetops, it was Liao Ying, "Why, I can't even read my phone, hehe." ”

"I, I heard it," Li Ji woke up like a dream, calmed down, and squeezed out a few smiles on his face, "I didn't look at my phone just now, hehe." ”

"Are you alright? What's weird? ”

"It's okay, it's okay," Li Ji grinned, "what can I do?" ”

"Then come over for dinner in the evening, I'll make braised fish."

"Okay, good," Li Ji agreed, licking his lips, "I haven't eaten the braised fish you made for a few days, I'm hungry!" ”

"Ha, then you should eat more at night."

"Well, okay, I'm going to drool."

"You, what's wrong with you today?" Liao Ying's voice was full of questions, "It feels a little weird, not like you." ”

"Why doesn't it look like me?" Li Ji asked rhetorically, "Who is not like me?" Like a pig! ”

"Hahaha!" Liao Ying couldn't help laughing, "Pig, are you really okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay," Li Ji said perfunctorily, "I'll see you in the evening, I'm still busy." ”

Liao Ying hung up the phone.

Li Ji was relieved, sighed gloomily, put his phone aside, and stared at the constantly flashing Windows system icon on the computer screen, his eyes glazed.

Jingle bells, jingle bells......

The phone rang again.

Why are there so many calls today?

Li Jizhi shook his head and didn't want to move.

He forgets that he used to have more phones when he was in the office. Sometimes, it's just one after the other. It's still talking, and the phone calls are coming in.

But since the call to the fifth floor, there have been a lot fewer calls, and it can almost be described as "the door is full of birds". In the meantime, a few customers also called and said a few words that didn't hurt.

Li Ji obviously felt it.

Presumably, customers have heard about their own affairs and are afraid to avoid it. Maybe someone is already saying everywhere that Li Ji is going to get out of the business.

Human affection is like the four seasons, cold and warm. It's just that Li Ji didn't expect that it would be winter so soon.

Jingle bells! Jingle bells! Jingle bells!

After waiting for a while, the bell still kept ringing, but it rang more vigorously; Like a rising tide, wave after wave, straight to the ear drum.

"Who?" Li Ji panicked in his heart, and picked up his mobile phone angrily. After only looking at it, he hurriedly picked it up: "Oh, it's Han Mei, is there something wrong?" ”

"Why, I can't call you if it's okay?"

Han Mei's tone was very affectionate, with some coquettish elements.

"No, I didn't say that."

Li Ji was very vigilant at this time, but he didn't want to have more to do with this Miss Han.

"Yesterday, my parents, and my aunt, were quite satisfied with you, haha."

Han Mei laughed, but Li Ji was flustered in his heart.

"Han Mei, let's talk about it a long time ago," Li Ji hurriedly responded, "I'm an impostor, a temporary cameo, I can't take it seriously." Don't let your parents and aunts misunderstand. ”

"Look at what scares you, cowardly as a pig!" Han Mei snorted, then laughed again, "I'm just saying that." ”

"Well, I know, I know," Li Ji calmed down a little, "If it's okay, then I'll hang up first." ”

"You don't want to talk to me like that......" Han Mei seemed a little angry.

"No, no! Absolutely nothing! Li Ji hurriedly explained, "I have something to do here, and I want to go to a meeting." ”

"Oh, then you get busy first." Han Mei paused, and her tone was light, "Now it's my turn to owe you a favor......

"Small, small, I'll talk about it later, I'll talk about it later......." Li Ji agreed repeatedly, "You're waiting for me, I'm sorry, I'll hang up first......"

After that, without waiting for Han Mei to speak, Li Ji hurriedly hung up the phone.

He shifted his chair back, frowning and his gaze wandering. Stop less, stretch your legs forward vigorously, and gently stretch your waist.

"Oops......" Li Ji shouted, stroking his waist with both hands, and couldn't stop inhaling. For a while, he forgot about the injuries on his body.

Li Ji twisted his body and slowly sat back, leaning his shoulders on the back of the chair.

Face? Face is worth a few bucks!

After thinking silently for a long time, Li Ji finally made up his mind.

In this world, face is the most valuable and the least valuable.

Even a big man like Han Xin had the humiliation of his crotch back then. A small person like himself, a character with a big fart, bows his head and says a few words of convincing, what's the big deal.

Haha, that's it.

People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and they are even more afraid of being thick-skinned.

Those with thick skin are invincible in the world.

Li Ji kept thinking of various reasons and tried to convince himself, and even he felt funny later.

The sunlight outside the window was quiet, like hiding countless mocking eyes.

Li Ji tugged at the hem of his shirt and finally stood up.

He straightened his hair, cleared his throat, and moved his mouth a few times, stretching the tense muscles on his face as much as he could.

The hallway was silent.

A spider crawled along the windowsill and up to the ceiling.

Li Ji walked out of the door, but his feet became heavier and heavier.
