No matter what Zhu Yicai guessed, the negotiations between Greenland and Pengfei Real Estate continued as usual.
Both parties' negotiations progressed quickly because they both pursued a quick conclusion. When the conditions were about right, both parties would quickly move on to the next one.
In just one day, both parties had passed more than 80% of the resolutions.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Wang Pengfei was still prepared to fight through the night. At this moment, Liu Meng's secretary came in and whispered a few words to Liu Meng.
Liu Meng's face changed and he immediately stood up. "CEO Wang, it's getting late. Let's continue tomorrow."
Wang Pengfei's face twitched. He had a bad premonition in his heart and asked, "CEO Liu, what's wrong? Didn't we agree to finish today? "
Liu Meng looked at him and took a deep breath. "ICBC's President Chen is here!"
"President Chen?"
Wang Pengfei's face changed. "Why is he here at this time?"
"I'm not sure, but I'm afraid it's not good. It's most likely …"
Liu Meng sighed. "In any case, it shouldn't be good news. Also, Hsu Shengzhe is here as well."
"Longhua is up to no good again!"
Wang Pengfei frowned and stood up. "Then, I'll go with you."
Liu Meng didn't stop him. He nodded and brought Wang Pengfei out of the conference room.
…
Liu Meng's office.
Seeing Wang Pengfei and Liu Meng enter together, Xu Shengzhe, who was talking to President Chen, squinted his eyes. Then, he stood up and smiled. "President Liu, President Wang, I hope I'm not disturbing you?"
Liu Meng smiled and didn't say anything. However, Wang Pengfei snorted. "CEO Xu, a straightforward person doesn't beat around the bush! Greenland and Pengfei Real Estate have already reached an agreement. It's a done deal. It's useless no matter how you cause trouble. "
"You misunderstood me, Chief Wang," said Xu Shengzhe with a faint smile. "I just came to visit Chief Liu on the way. As for causing trouble, it's not that bad. "
At this moment, Liu Meng interrupted, "Please calm down. President Chen, why are you here?"
President Chen awkwardly said, "CEO Liu, I'm here to inform you of the decision."
"What decision?"
"Yesterday, Greenland submitted a transfer agreement notice to ICBC. After the bank's review, this agreement was rejected."
Liu Meng didn't fly into a rage. He just frowned and said, "So fast? Why? "
For this kind of application, even if it was fast, it would take at least a week. Now that ICBC had rejected it so quickly, Liu Meng immediately understood that Longhua had interfered again.
"Because it involves a change in the credit subject, the bank must verify the qualifications of the new credit subject. According to our investigation, Pengfei Real Estate Co., Ltd. does not have the ability to assume the debt transfer. "
Wang Pengfei, who was at the side, was immediately very displeased. "President Chen, what do you mean by that?"
"CEO Wang, this isn't my personal decision, but the opinion of the bank's evaluation agency. Pengfei Real Estate's debt ratio was too high, and they were short of cash flow. Their credit rating in ICBC was only BB, and they were deemed to be a poor enterprise with insufficient repayment ability. Under these circumstances, ICBC will not agree to Pengfei Real Estate's acquisition of Greenland in order to prevent risks. "
Wang Pengfei immediately said angrily, "Nonsense! What BB grade? Our Pengfei Real Estate's reputation has always been good, and we have no problems with our repayment ability!
Last year, we were even recognized as an AA grade enterprise by the Bank of China. Now, I, Wang Pengfei, am just short of bankruptcy, right?
President Chen, don't listen to other people's provocation!
If you casually label a large enterprise as a poor enterprise, you will have to bear the responsibility.
If these words were to be spread out, do you know how big of an impact it would have on our Pengfei?
Just based on these words, do you believe that I will sue you until you go bankrupt? "
President Chen immediately smiled. "CEO Wang, these words weren't said by me, but by our bank's evaluation. And this evaluation report isn't made up by us. Pengfei Real Estate's debt in Sichuan is indeed too high. Although Pengfei Real Estate still has the ability to repay in the short term, Pengfei Real Estate's profits for the past two years can't meet the bank's expectations. According to our evaluation, Pengfei Real Estate does indeed have some risks. "
Wang Pengfei was panting, but he couldn't refute.
This was because Pengfei Real Estate's profits for the past two years couldn't meet the expectations. On one hand, it was because of Sichuan's geographical restrictions, and on the other hand, it was because Wang Pengfei transferred some of his funds to Jiangbei to expand.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Pengfei asked, "President Chen, if you have something to say, just say it. You're saying that if Greenland doesn't repay this loan, our Pengfei Real Estate can't proceed with the merger, right? "
"According to the contract …"
"Fine, I know what you're saying! Isn't it because other than Longhua, the other enterprises don't have the ability to repay the loan?
President Chen, you're the president of a large state-owned bank. Don't think of yourself as someone else's dog! If there's a day that I'm not happy, I'll definitely torture you!
So what if you're a president?
It's not like I'm begging you. Just based on what you said today, I, Wang Pengfei, will never have any dealings with your ICBC Bank!
Isn't it just 600 million? I have plenty of money. You want to use this to stop our merger? Dream on!
President Liu, I'll take matters into my own hands today. It's not a problem to ask these two to scram, right? "
Wang Pengfei cursed for a while before remembering that he wasn't the owner of this place. He turned around and asked Liu Meng.
He wasn't a refined person to begin with. If he was, he wouldn't have brought his bodyguards to Pingchuan. He even had a conflict with Li Dong the moment he arrived in Pingchuan.
He was so low profile in Pingchuan because he didn't have any background in Jiangbei.
But now, even a branch president dared to cause trouble for him. Naturally, Wang Pengfei was furious.
In Sichuan, even the provincial branch president had to give him some face. Chen Xingzi was only the president of a city bank. He had never suffered such a loss before.
Another point was that ICBC's credit rating of Pengfei Real Estate had angered Wang Pengfei.
These credit ratings didn't seem to have much effect on normal times. But once the news of Pengfei Real Estate being recognized as a BB grade enterprise got out, it would be troublesome.
What happened to Greenland, Men Shen, and a few other companies would soon happen to him.
At this time, if Wang Pengfei just silently agreed, he might suffer a huge setback.
Wang Pengfei's anger was out of President Chen and Hsu Shengzhe's expectations. The two of them were stunned and didn't come back to their senses.
Liu Meng reacted quickly. At this moment, Liu Meng didn't feel that Wang Pengfei had overstepped his boundaries. Instead, he felt that Wang Pengfei had helped him vent his anger.
It could be said that the Green Forest had been forced to this step by the two people in front of them.
One used the banking system to cause trouble for Greenland, and the other used other channels to cause trouble for Greenland.
If it wasn't for them, Greenland would still be Greenland. How could it be sold?
Now that it had reached this stage, these two still wanted to trick him. Longhua wanted to acquire Greenland and become the biggest company in Jiangbei? Dream on!
Despite his thoughts, Liu Meng still maintained the smile on his face. He chuckled and said, "Gentlemen, I'm really sorry. President Wang's temper is like this. I apologize on his behalf. How about this, I don't think we can continue discussing this matter today. Let's talk tomorrow. President Chen, don't worry. Since the bank doesn't agree, Greenland will definitely not sell it. As for Greenland's loan, we will definitely repay it. After all, Greenland still has a lot of properties mortgaged to the bank. However, I feel that President Wang's words are right. There isn't only one bank in the world, and there isn't only one company. President Chen is making a ruckus, so I think we should be more careful in the future. I heard that President Yao has prepared a lot of materials. I think I should also prepare some and send it to the CBRC. "
In the cold weather, President Chen subconsciously wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Hsu Shengzhe, who was beside him, slightly frowned. After a while, he softly said, "President Liu, why do you have to do this? Longhua's conditions aren't any worse than others. They might even be better. You and I are both local companies in Jiangbei. If Longhua becomes bigger, we won't be the only ones benefiting.
I even promised that Greenland can hold shares in Longhua.
We can get rich together and earn money together, so why not?
Even if President Wang is here today, I still have some things to say. Pengfei Real Estate is not bad, but in Jiangbei, Pengfei Real Estate can't even compare to a medium-sized real estate company.
If Pengfei Real Estate starts from scratch, how far can it go with Greenland?
With a capital expenditure of one or two billion, Pengfei Real Estate's parent company might be in a cash flow crisis. What capital does it have to lead Greenland to develop?
Greenland is your blood, sweat, and tears for many years. If Longhua buys it, then the Greenland brand will still exist.
But if the company goes bankrupt, Greenland will become history and will be quickly forgotten by others. Is President Liu really willing? "
Liu Meng slightly muttered to himself and didn't rush to speak.
Wang Pengfei, who was beside him, couldn't sit still and quickly said, "President Xu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! You are overestimating yourself. Do you think Longhua will be the final winner? Far away, there are still Men Shen and a few others. Yurun and China Resources Real Estate that are preparing to enter the Jiangbei real estate market, which one of them isn't a giant in the industry? Once they start a large-scale invasion, small and medium-sized enterprises like us will still have space to survive. But your Longhua will be the first to bear the brunt! In my opinion, Greenland is in my hands. After all, I have spent a lot of money, so I will definitely be cautious and not rash. But President Xu is so young and arrogant. I doubt that President Xu has the ability to resist the other real estate companies. "
Hsu Shengzhe frowned and looked at him. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes before he said, "President Wang, I think this acquisition of Greenland isn't your idea alone, right?"
Wang Pengfei snorted, "You don't have to worry about that!"
Hsu Shengzhe saw that Liu Meng didn't speak and Wang Pengfei took the initiative. He knew that Liu Meng had already made up his mind. His face was slightly gloomy as he said, "Then I will look forward to President Wang's performance! After returning 600 million to the Industrial and Commercial Bank, CCB still has 200 million! Spending 800 million before the acquisition. I want to see who can be forced out in the end! President Wang is also a smart person. Don't be used by others! If you want to develop in Jiangbei's real estate industry, President Wang is a little too high profile now! "
"Thank you for your advice, President Xu. But I, Wang Pengfei, am not one to be scared."
"Since President Wang insists on doing things your own way, then pretend that I didn't say anything today. I hope to see President Wang being this high profile again in the future."
After Xu Shengzhe said this, he got up and walked out the door. President Chen, who was at the side, saw this and hurriedly followed, afraid that he would be implicated.
After the two of them left, Liu Meng let out a long sigh and said, "Damn it. This brat is getting more and more insolent! I am actually praying that Li Dong will recover soon. Without Li Dong, there are very few people in Jiangbei who can suppress him. If Longhua really unifies Jiangbei's real estate industry, who knows what kind of tough days our old friends will have in the future. "
Wang Pengfei smiled and said, "That's true. It's just a pity for General Manager Li. Sigh."
Liu Meng glanced at him. He was not an idiot.
At this time, he also had some doubts. If Wang Pengfei was not working with Zhu Yicai, then he was working with Li Dong.
As for who it was, he did not care too much. He would find out sooner or later.
He could even guess that if it was really the guy who pretended to be dead in the hospital, that person would most likely show up on the day of the contract signing.
Liu Meng did not expose him. He continued, "President Wang, now the bank has shed all pretenses of cordiality. Our application to postpone the repayment was rejected. This means that ICBC will definitely repay the 600 million. In addition to the amount we agreed on, your side … "
Wang Pengfei quickly smiled and said, "No problem. Absolutely no problem. Don't worry."
Although he said that, Wang Pengfei was still a little uneasy.
Originally, Wang Pengfei wanted to postpone the repayment period of the loan to reduce the capital expenditure.
In that case, they would only need to spend half of the purchase price, which was 800 million yuan, to acquire the green land.
But now, if CCB joined in, that meant that before the acquisition was completed, Li Dong would have to fork out 1.6 billion in cash.
And after three months, the remaining 800 million would also have to be paid in.
2.4 billion in three months was an astronomical figure. Anyway, Wang Pengfei knew that he did not have the ability to do so.
As for Li Dong, he had already invested 500 million with him.
In addition, he had also acquired Kelong and was about to start the supermarket expansion. Far away's original debt, if he were to spend 2.4 billion, would Far Away, which had only been established for two years, be able to handle it?
Wang Pengfei did a simple calculation. This would require Li Dong to fork out more than 5 billion in three months to fill this huge hole and satisfy Far Away's development.
5 billion was more than the total output of Pengfei Real Estate.
Even if this guy really had the golden touch, he might not be able to fork it out, right?
Although Wang Pengfei felt that Li Dong might not be able to do it, he still agreed readily and told Liu Meng that the money would be paid in soon.
Pengfei and Green Land's merger would not be interrupted by anyone.
Liu Meng also laughed and agreed. Anyway, Wang Pengfei could not fork out the money and the following negotiations could not continue. It was good to test the waters now.
Otherwise, he would not be at ease with Wang Pengfei's previous promise of cash.
