Chapter 302: Funding Gap
Lao Duan took the initiative to come to the door, Lao Li was quite surprised, when he learned that Lao Duan asked him to follow Guan Yuntian to discuss the funding gap for environmental protection rectification, Lao Li was very incomprehensible. On the one hand, fund raising is the responsibility of the board of directors, as the chairman of the board of supervisors, Lao Li believes that this matter has nothing to do with him, in addition, he feels that today's Changda Group has retreated to the status of a small shareholder of a listed company, can Guan Yuntian manage this matter?
"Mr. Duan, it is your board of directors' business to solve the funding gap, why do you have to climb up to me?" Lao Li said bluntly.
"I didn't want to trouble you, but I thought that you were more familiar with Guan Yuntian, and it was more casual to meet and talk, so I was different, I only met him twice, and I couldn't say a lot of words. Lao Duan told the truth.
"I did have some dealings with Mr. Guan, but Changda Group has not taken the listed company to heart now, and people are now small and medium-sized shareholders, and there is no obligation to solve the financial problem for Changda Holdings, but I am afraid that I will not play much role. ”
"What you say makes sense, but the situation we are facing now is very grim, environmental protection rectification must be completed on time, there is a gap in funds, and shareholders can't come up with money, I want to find Mr. Guan to try, on the one hand, Changda Group is still a shareholder after all, and the listed company has some relationship, in addition, it is said that Mr. Guan is sympathetic, as long as we explain the words, he can not see death without saving. Lao Duan even inquired about Guan Yuntian's personality and temper clearly.
Now, there is no other way, Lao Li has no choice but to try his luck with Lao Duan.
Guan Yuntian's office location is not fixed, sometimes in Changda Real Estate Company, sometimes in Changda Building, mainly depending on the needs of the work. After they entered the house, Guan Yuntian was surprised, thinking that something had happened to the two, "Welcome to the two rare guests, the chairman and the chairman of the board of supervisors of Changda Holdings come to the cold house at the same time, I don't know what you have to do?" After speaking, he got up and shook hands with the guests to give up their seats.
Seeing that Lao Duan and Lao Li were talking and laughing, Fang knew that there was no contradiction and confrontation, and Guan Yuntian was relieved. Some time ago, when the board of supervisors was first established, I heard that the chairman of the board of directors and the chairman of the board of supervisors of the listed company had a very unpleasant quarrel, to be honest, even as a bystander, Guan Yuntian did not want to see the conflict between the two executives, because he had paid a lot of effort for the Changda Holding Company, if it was really ruined, it would be really distressing.
The three of them sat down around the coffee table and chatted for a while, and Lao Duan finally got down to business, "Mr. Guan, we want to report some information to you on the matter of environmental protection rectification." ”
"Ouch, Mr. Duan, where is this? How can we talk about reporting to each other? What is the matter, please speak up, what's wrong with the environmental protection rectification?" Guan Yuntian said.
"The environmental protection rectification was carried out relatively smoothly in the early stage, and a large part of the required funds were raised in the secondary market, but according to the estimates of the design department, the final completion of the rectification may still be a third of the funds. ”
"Didn't the board of directors formulate a plan before? If there is not enough money in the secondary market, the shareholders will contribute capital according to the proportion of shareholdings, and this plan is very feasible in my opinion!" Guan Yuntian said.
"It's a good plan, but it's a bit difficult to implement right now. Lao Duan said a little embarrassed.
"Why, is it because the shareholders are reluctant to contribute, or is it something else?"
"Don't hide it from Mr. Guan, it's not that shareholders are unwilling to contribute, but that everyone can't come up with such a large amount of cash for the time being. Therefore, it now seems that there is a funding gap of about 100 million yuan for environmental protection rectification, which is a major problem faced by listed companies. Lao Duan said.
"Mr. Guan, there is indeed a certain funding gap in environmental protection rectification, not because shareholders are unwilling to contribute, but at present

Can't come up with the money. Since he came along, Lao Li also had to fulfill his responsibilities, so he interjected at the right time.
"But as far as I know, environmental rectification is a task that must be completed, not a little foolish, if the acceptance is not qualified, the enterprise will face the danger of shutting down, this is not child's play, please be sure to take it seriously. Guan Yuntian has long experienced environmental supervision, this environmental storm, more violent than ever before, if the requirements are not met on time, acceptance is not qualified, the enterprise will be difficult to pass.
"Mr. Guan, we also know the importance of environmental rectification, but this funding gap really makes our management helpless. Lao Duan looked very anxious.
Hearing this, Guan Yuntian seemed to have a premonition, "Say, the two of you are looking for me today, what's the matter?"
"We really can't solve the funding gap. Mr. Guan, you have a wide network of social contacts, and we want to ask you to help you think of a way to visit today. Old Duan pleaded.
"Let me help you figure out how to solve the funding gap?" Guan Yuntian felt that this was both expected and unexpected.
The two executives came to talk about the funding gap today, if it wasn't for Guan Yuntian to find a way, there would be no need to come to him. However, Changda Group has now abdicated to the small and medium-sized shareholders of listed companies, as Lao Li said, Guan Yuntian has never intersected with listed companies, and he has never served as an official and a half position in Changda Holdings, which is the reason why Lao Duan's request was unexpected by Guan Yuntian.
Seeing that Guan Yuntian was puzzled by his request, Lao Duan further explained: "Mr. Guan, because we can't raise this fund, but we can't delay the environmental protection rectification, if you can find a way to help us overcome the current difficulties in any way, we thank you on behalf of all shareholders!"
Guan Yuntian smiled, he had declined the honor given by the government many times, and he still cared about a few words of thanks?" Mr. Duan, don't be polite, speaking of which, Changda Group is still the third largest shareholder of Changda Holdings, and it is not objective to say that I have nothing to do with listed companies, because I still have a certain amount of equity in listed companies. When it comes to the funding gap for environmental remediation projects, as you might all guess, I can't sit idly by. That's right, I, Guan Yuntian, am not the kind of person who doesn't save me when I die, but how do you manage the law? Do you have a plan? It's also hundreds of millions of dollars, so you can't just write a note, right?"
The meaning is already very clear, Guan Yuntian promised to take care of this matter, but he just wanted to make the conditions clear, and Lao Duan's heart could finally be put down, "Mr. Guan, we came in a hurry, and the specific plan is not yet available, but whether it is borrowed or loaned, as long as the funds can be in place and the task of environmental protection rectification is successfully completed, it can be calculated in any way." ”
"Don't talk about borrowing money first, I mean, do you have a repayment plan before solving the funding gap? That is, how will you return the funds in the future? How long will it take to repay the loan?
"Well, this ----, main fear is that I won't get your support, so I didn't think that far. As for the repayment plan, the original plan wanted shareholders to withdraw the money from the year-end bonus,
Now it seems that it is better to allocate this fund from the gross profit of the listed company, at least to pay less tax. The repayment time is estimated to be about the same at the end of the year. "Lao Duan is actually very shrewd.
"If this is the case, in principle, I am willing to help listed companies solve the problem of funding for environmental protection rectification, and the next step is for you to come up with a written repayment plan and let the financial departments on both sides handle it. When I say this, I agree completely.
Lao Duan didn't expect Guan Yuntian to be so happy, and this trip gained a lot.

After sending off the two executives of the listed company, Guan Yuntian sat down to think about how to raise the funds, he believed that Changda Group did not have so much spare money to lend to the listed company, so he could only take out loans to solve the problem.
But through bank loans, the procedures are more troublesome, Changda Group has a Changda microfinance platform, the interest may be slightly higher than the bank, but when Guan Yuntian called the office of the platform manager Chang, the answer was that the loan business has been active recently, because there have been many businesses some time ago, and now the platform can't take out 100 million funds.
"Hehe! In order to help the listed company tide over the difficulties, I have to ask the bank for help!" put down the phone, Guan Yuntian muttered to himself.
But after thinking about it, it's not right! Why didn't Lao Duan go directly to a financial institution to apply for a loan? Isn't it redundant to run here to ask for help? So, Guan Yuntian dialed Lao Duan's mobile phone, "Mr. Duan, I forgot to remind you just now that there is a shortage of funds for environmental protection rectification, why don't you go directly to the bank to apply for a loan?"
Old Duan hesitated, "This ...... The listed company has never borrowed money from the bank because of the need for funds for operation, because the financing in the secondary market is enough to support the funds required for the daily operation of the listed company. ”
"Oh----," Guan Yuntian knew the reason, "However, listed companies also have financial directors, and general financial directors also maintain a good relationship with financial institutions, why didn't Lao Duan let his financial director come forward to seek loan support?"
Although he couldn't ask Lao Duan directly, after putting down the phone, Guan Yuntian still learned through other channels that the financial director of the listed company was a foreigner, because the company had no need for loans, and the director didn't seem to be sociable.
In order to solve the funding gap for environmental protection rectification, it is no wonder that Lao Duan wants to go around such a big circle and turn to Guan Yuntian for help.
On the surface, Lao Duan seems to be very good at making friends, but he has a characteristic, that is, only what can be used is handed over, and what is not needed is not handed over, however, because of the limitation of his low quality, he often can't see who he will use in the future, who he will not need, and there is no one who has no sense of foresight, which is why he became the chairman of a listed company, but did not deal with financial institutions.
Guan Yuntian shook his head, it was none of his business, but someone came to the door, if he was turned away, it was not Guan Yuntian's character.
Since he had agreed to Lao Duan's request, Guan Yuntian took the time to run to the county agricultural bank, and as soon as he entered the office, he was teased by President Liu, "Mr. Guan, remember which direction the door of my office opened?"
"What are you talking about? This time the interval is a little longer, and it seems that the leader is upset? Okay, I've invited you to drink today. Guan Yuntian said with a grin.
"Why do you have to ask for a drink as soon as we meet? Are you joking that our big Agricultural Bank has no money to entertain you? Besides, when it comes to drinking, none of us are your opponents. ”
When they met, Guan Yuntian and President Liu, two old friends, had to quarrel, and after getting back to business, Lao Liu knew that Guan Yuntian had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, "Say, what's the matter with coming here today?"
"Of course there is, but to be precise, it's not my business. ”
"Since it's not your business, why are you bothering about these idle things? Isn't it enough for you to take care of so many things of Changda Group and Changda Real Estate Company?"
