Chapter 163: Be cautious, legend, dismount
It is not yet concluded how Hongxin Group handles the crisis of its largest subsidiary this time. Things have just begun and are far from settled. Xu Han came to greet Liu Baofeng early, as if he foreseeing the development of the future situation.
Everyone in the industry knows that the shareholders seem to be in a rebellion this time. If Hongxin Group does not compromise, it will only be apart. The money tree of Fengbao Group will definitely not collapse. It is easy to enjoy the cool under the big tree. Xu Han’s purpose is to take the opportunity to board the big ship to Kingsoft.
He and Liu Baofeng sat on the sofa after breakfast and whispered for a while, and then he said goodbye.
Liu Baofeng went out to see him off. After watching Xu Han drive away, he walked back to the house and looked at the time. It was only 8:30. The shareholders' meeting of Fengbao Group was scheduled at 10:00 in the morning.
"Who is that person's origin?"
Zeng Xiaolong was surprised by Liu Baofeng and the man's attitude, so he asked three questions that were curious about by the young people.
They are curious when they meet anyone.
Liu Baofeng raised his head and said softly: "A man who looks like an enemy but not a friend."
On the surface, he seemed to have a close relationship with Xu Han, but in fact they just maintained their appearance of favor. In secret, both of them were smiling.
At that time, Fengbao Group wanted to go public in North America, and the intermediary agency entrusted and the person who promoted this plan was Xu Han.
The two of them are in a cooperative relationship, but Liu Baofeng was cheated by Xu Han by 500 million US dollars, which was not considered a cheat. It was just because the situation was forced. His ability was limited at that time. When it was time to bow his head and ask for others, it was useless to bow down and give him enough face. He had to give the other party real benefits. However, he didn't expect that Xu Han asked for 500 million US dollars at that time. Liu Baofeng gritted his teeth and agreed for the long-term development, which greatly reduced the capital of the 2 billion US dollars he raised in North America.
But sometimes the worldly style is so helpless. Liu Baofeng gave the other party good things. In the end, he still owed the other party a favor in terms of face, and seemed to have received great favors from the other party. Now he meets again many years later. He also has to greet him with a smile.
"Who are the rich people he said representing?"
Qiao Zhengmao is more interested in this. If Fengbao Group has new partners, it must be aware of the new arrival.
Liu Baofeng slowly walked upstairs and whispered: "I don't know. You guys stay here for a while, I'll go call."
The situation of Fengbao Group is still unclear, and Xu Han just proposed a plan, which Hongxin may not accept. Even if it is necessary to consider it, it must be discussed after the conclusion of Fengbao Group's matter is found, so Liu Baofeng did not ask.
But he was very puzzled why Xu Han suddenly appeared.
Many years ago, he only knew that Xu Han was responsible for overseas affairs, especially in various countries in Ome. He heard that he had great energy, but he was all overseas. Fengbao Group was listed in China and Hong Kong City, and Liu Baofeng was responsible for it himself. It was not difficult, but he had to go public in North America and had many obstacles. Therefore, after Chen Luo introduced him, he contacted Xu Han and heard that this person had a wide range of connections overseas. As expected, as soon as Xu Han came forward, Fengbao Group successfully listed in North America in a short period of time.
Why did a person like him who only works hard in Omi come back to China? In recent years, there have been many major events such as industry giants, corporate restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, and never heard of Xu Han. Why did he suddenly return to China?
Liu Baofeng came to the study and took out the phone and called Chen Luo.
Chen Luo, who was already sitting in the office at work, looked at the front pages of financial newspapers, and was obviously reporting on the possible earthquake magnitude changes caused by Fengbao Group.
"Baofeng, what is your group doing? Why did you expose all the housework? Or are there people who are interested in fanning the flames? I am afraid that the world will not be in chaos."
"This matter is quite sudden. I guess someone is really insane. I called you to ask another thing. Do you still remember Xu Han?"
"I have some impression. I haven't seen him for many years. Haha, his human being like the dragon who sees his head but not his tail. Once it appears, it will inevitably sign that something big will happen. Why? You suddenly ask him, is it?"
"He just left my house five minutes ago. He cared about Fengbao Group. He guessed at least half of it. One of our Hongxin's principles is that both inside and outside the business competition, and never bowed. So, he might think that Hongxin Group will break with these troubled shareholders, and then he wanted to replace it. Perhaps as he said, he is a middleman and help others become our partners."
"This is very strange, you should be careful."
"Of course I will be cautious, but what I'm even more curious is whether you know that Xu Han is one of those people we occasionally hear in the capital?"
"I used to think this was an exaggeration, and I thought it was a legend. Someone was catching up on the wind and shadow and just laughed at it. If you ask me, I don't know, but I think if those people exist, Xu Han should at least be qualified to be one of them."
"Okay, I get it."
Liu Baofeng hung up the phone and sat alone in the office chair and fell into deep thought.
Living in the capital, I used to be with my family, and the circle I met was naturally middle- and upper-class people.
The Chinese Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and the Capital City is also a place where legends are not lacking.
There is a legend circulating in the circle he once mingled with.
Unlike the kind of people who sometimes worship the young people, who pick up a few hooligans and ruin many girls, Liu Baofeng heard that there was a group of people in the capital. They were the ones among the people, and they had a firm position. They fought for the country and the nation, explored the path of the future, and tried to open up new paths of success in the social management model and capital operation direction. The resources and power they could use were extraordinary.
This was amazing when I heard it back then. Liu Baofeng felt that it was a person from the two worlds with different ideals. He was too noble and too merciless. He just thought about his wife and children, so he felt a little ashamed.
But many years later, he never saw any of them, and he felt that this was a false legend.
But today, Xu Han's accidental appearance reminded him of this legend. For some reason, he felt that the purpose of Xu Han's visit was not as simple as he said.
After staying in the study for nearly an hour, Liu Baofeng went downstairs at 9:30, the three young men immediately stood up, and the four of them went out together and took a bus to Fengbao Group.
The other three people didn't recognize the way. So Liu Baofeng drove and no one chatted on the road, and Liu Baofeng was also thinking about his thoughts.
The Fengbao Group he built, which he had worked hard to find. From the day he was established, he occupied 70% of the shares, and the other 30% were shareholders he needed to attract entrepreneurial funds. Most of them were financial institutions, and there were also many wealthy people with amazing financial resources in Beijing at that time.
Subsequently, Fengbao Group continued to grow in its land grab. For more capital, listing financing was the only way to go. It was listed in domestic A-shares, in Hongcheng, and in North America, including Liu Baofeng later cashed out his shares. When he joined Hongxin Group, he only had 58% of Fengbao Group's shares. The other shareholders combined was about 20%. Now, among the top ten shareholders of Fengbao Group, Fengya Group also swept away about 2% of the stocks before Fengbao Group made a splash. Overall, the largest shareholder of Fengbao Group is not Liu Baofeng. Instead, Hongxin Group, as the corporate legal person, is the controlling 60% of the shares.
The office building of Fengbao Group was in a state of bleakness, and the office staff were panicked, as if a haze was shrouded on everyone's heads.
The big guys in the group are going to meet today. If there is a stuttering, the future is really uncertain.
When Liu Baofeng parked his car outside the main entrance of the office building, he pushed the door and got out of the car, threw the car keys to the receptionist next to the door. The other three young men got out together and followed Liu Baofeng to the elevator and headed to the conference room with a familiar journey.
"Mr. Liu, the other shareholders have arrived and are waiting for you."
On the floor where the conference room was located, the elevator door had just opened, and a gentle man looked forward to it at the door, and when he saw Liu Baofeng, he opened the right way.
He is Liu Baofeng's assistant and man, which is what Liu Baofeng means to reassure his wife.
Liu Baofeng nodded calmly and led the three young men to open the door to the conference room.
The room was filled with smoke, and more than a dozen men were smoking on both sides of the long table. There was still a voice before, but after Liu Baofeng appeared, the room became silent. More than a dozen eyes glanced at the outsiders at the door and then withdrew their gazes one after another, and no one greeted Liu Baofeng.
As for Tang Xiao, Zeng Xiaolong, and Qiao Zhengmao, no one went to see them.
The youngest men sitting here are over thirty years old, and the older ones are probably in their early sixties.
They are all shareholders of Fengbao Group. Although they do not participate in the management, shareholders still have the right to speak after all. They naturally know that Tang Xiao, the acting chairman, is going to inspect Fengbao Group during the National Day holiday. It seems that it is just a coincidence that he gave him a big gift, which can also be called a warning.
Several seats near the main seat were empty, and that was always Liu Baofeng's location.
Liu Baofeng walked over, and unexpectedly sat in the first position on the right hand of the main seat, waiting for others to take their seats.
Qiao Zhengmao and Zeng Xiaolong sat automatically opposite Liu Baofeng, with the only one left Tang Xiao. He stood beside Liu Baofeng and looked at the main position. At this moment, other shareholders also narrowed their eyes and stared at Tang Xiao.
Seeing that Liu Baofeng sat down without saying anything, Tang Xiao didn't even give him a look of sight. He hesitated for a second, then took a deep breath, and sat firmly in the main seat.
When he bent down and pulled the chair forward, he looked up again, Tang Xiaoshen solemnly looked around the audience and said softly: "My name is Tang Xiao, and I am the acting chairman of Hongxin Group. This time, I will first solve the protests expressed by Fengbao Group on the newly launched plan,"
"Liu Baofeng, think back then, if it weren't for your father and grandfather's sake, we would lend you money? We would invest in you? Now that you have a strong wing and have Hongxin Group as your backer, why? Don't be a human being, Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves the suffering? One trillion-dollar housing plan, oh, what a big deal, the price is so low, is it necessary for workers to pay for it? Wouldn't it be better for you to give it away for free?"
A man in his fifty-year-old sitting in the middle of the left in the conference room interrupted Tang Xiao's words, and didn't even take him seriously. He stared at Liu Baofeng with his eyes coldly and said sarcastically.
It seemed that these words were recognized by the other shareholders present, and they all nodded.
Hongxin Group wants to launch this plan, and employees agree with it, while shareholders are cursing in private and angry.
Building a house at a cost price can also allow employees to exchange for their service experience, which is obviously a loss-making transaction.
Especially the twenty-year plan.
As housing prices rise, it is not the price of the house itself, or even the value of the house itself is getting lower and lower, because the quality of the house will decline over time.
The real price increase is land, but because the authority to use housing land for 70 years, how many 70 years does a person have? Therefore, the population is getting more and more, but the available land is getting smaller and smaller, so the price will naturally rise, which leads to an increase in housing prices.
With the twenty-year plan, the land price will definitely rise in this process. The cost price they sell to employees will be, and the benefits of this loss will become greater and greater!
