At the same time.
Longhua Group.
The retired Xu Jianghua came to the company with the help of Xu Rulong.
Xu Jianghua ignored the secretary's greeting and pushed open the door of the chairman's office.
In the office, Hsu Shengzhe was talking with the general manager of Longhua. He looked up when the door was pushed open.
Hsu Shengzhe's face changed when he saw his father and brother. He stood up and smiled, "Dad, why are you here?"
"Shouldn't I be here?"
Xu Jianghua's tone was not very good. He didn't lose his temper because there were outsiders around. He turned to the general manager and said, "Old Zhang, you go out for a while."
The general manager of Longhua lowered his head and didn't dare to look at them. He hurried out of the office.
Hsu Shengzhe waited for him to go out. He smiled and said, "Dad, brother, sit down and talk. It's cold outside. You can just call me if you need anything …"
"Humph!"
Xu Jianghua snorted, "Call? You are so great now. Do you dare to trouble you? Why didn't I agree to the cooperation with Yurun? I'm a major shareholder of Longhua. Shouldn't you inform me about this? I didn't know about it until you announced it. Do you still treat me as your father? "
Hsu Shengzhe glanced at Xu Rulong, who was silent. He smiled and explained, "Dad, it's my fault. But before cooperating with Yurun, the company had already held a board meeting and a shareholders' meeting … "
"Why didn't I know about it?"
Xu Shengzhe suppressed his anger and continued to smile, "Didn't you accompany Big Brother on a blind date in the past few days? When you came back that night, I told you once, and you said that I can make my own decisions. Plus, Yurun was in a hurry. I was afraid that I would miss this opportunity, so I didn't report to you. "
"You told me?"
Xu Jianghua thought about it. Hsu Shengzhe seemed to have mentioned it to him once.
However, he didn't care too much about it at that time. His eldest son wasn't young anymore. This time, when he came back from the holidays, he wholeheartedly wanted to settle his eldest son's marriage.
In addition, Hsu Shengzhe's words were not too formal at that time, so Xu Jianghua casually dismissed him.
But today, he didn't know that the cooperation between the two sides was so big.
Since her son had said so, and she had also said that she would let him make the decision, it was indeed not good to get angry.
The anger in his heart subsided a little, but Xu Jianghua was still a little dissatisfied. "Then you should have reported to me before signing the agreement. The scale of cooperation between the two parties has reached 5.6 billion, which is almost equivalent to a small group. The company's cash flow has been emptied, and the real estate industry hasn't been doing too well recently … "
"Dad, we have a chance because the economy is not doing well.
Otherwise, do you think we have a chance to take over Yurun's property?
If Zhu Yicai hadn't been tricked by Li Dong in the first half of the year, they wouldn't have taken advantage of us.
They had invested a lot in Jiang Bei in the past few years. Just the tourism real estate project in Xin 'an alone was worth more than 4 billion.
It's also because of the turmoil in the real estate industry that we can take over Yurun's property at a low price.
Overall, the value of Yurun's property in Jiangbei is definitely more than 6 billion. I think it's quite worth it. "
Xu Jianghua was deep in thought, but he didn't deny it.
Before he came, he had looked at the information and knew that his son was telling the truth.
The value of Yurun's property was indeed not low. As for whether it was worth 6 billion, it was hard to say. Anyway, Xu Jianghua didn't think it was a loss.
Just when he was deep in thought, Xu Rulong laughed and said, "Second Brother, I'm not here to say that you did not do well. The point is, everyone knows that the real estate industry is not doing well. Even Zhu Yicai had let go of it, and it's too dangerous for you to take over at this time. Zhu Yicai isn't the Child of Fortune. If he could really make money, would he be willing to let go? He has been operating in Jiangbei for so many years, and now almost all of them have retreated. If it wasn't for the fact that there's no hope, would he be so kind? "
After Xu Rulong finished speaking, Xu Jianghua also came to a realization. He immediately frowned and said, "Shengzhe, what do you think about this? At this time, everyone is in danger, and some of the prime land in the market has been sold. It's too risky for you to take over Yurun at this time! "
Hsu Shengzhe nodded and said, "It's a little risky. I know that."
"You know that, but you still did it? Did the board of directors just let you do it? "
Hsu Shengzhe smiled and said, "Dad, although it's a little risky, I'm still confident. If not, the board of directors and shareholders wouldn't have agreed to it. "
Xu Jianghua frowned and said, "Confident? How confident are you? "
"Because Li Dong is also taking over Yurun!"
Xu Jianghua was stunned. When Xu Rulong heard Li Dong's name, he immediately became angry and said, "Second Brother, you're going to do whatever he does? If he doesn't want to live anymore, do you want to die too? Longhua doesn't belong to you alone. It's something that Dad has worked hard for decades to get. Now, you're just going to do whatever Li Dong does. Have you considered Dad's feelings? "
Hsu Shengzhe swept a glance at him, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
However, the coldness soon dissipated. Hsu Shengzhe smiled and said, "Big Brother, although this matter is a little arbitrary, we have to admit that.
Li Dong has sharp eyes!
All these years, have you seen him suffer losses?
No!
From 2004 until now, he went from penniless to becoming one of the top ten richest men in the country, and the richest man in Jiangbei. He didn't rely on swindling people.
Although I don't want to admit it, he has his own unique way of doing business.
I'm sure Dad can understand this. Li Dong grew up right under our noses. "
Xu Rulong wanted to say more, but Xu Jianghua said, "That's true. Although I don't get along with Li Dong, he's still capable. Since Li Dong is also taking advantage of him, Yurun's deal is worth it. "
"Dad!"
Xu Rulong frowned slightly and called out unhappily.
Xu Jianghua coughed and thought for a while before saying, "Then let's leave it at that for now. However, Sage, sometimes you can't be too arbitrary. Just like this time, it involves such a large investment. You should explain it to me in detail. It won't be too late to cooperate after I've made my decision. You're still too young. "
Hsu Shengzhe quickly said, "I was too impatient. Don't worry, I'll discuss it with Dad if there's such a thing again."
"I'm old, and my brain can't work anymore." Xu Jianghua shook his head, looking like a hero in his old age.
Xu Jianghua sighed. After a while, he continued, "By the way, Shengzhe, your brother has nothing to do at home. Let him come to the company to help out. If you two work together, you'll definitely be able to do a better job at Longhua."
Hsu Shengzhe was stunned. After a while, he said reluctantly, "Dad, isn't Big Brother going to the army?"
"He's not going anymore. I've asked someone to help him with the paperwork. He's already in his thirties. When will it be the end for him to stay in the army? Besides, your brother isn't young anymore. He'll have to start a family eventually. How long will it take for him to get married in the army? Let him work in the company for a while first. "
Hsu Shengzhe's eyelids twitched, but he quickly smiled and said, "Alright, I'll arrange it for Big Brother later."
"Okay, do as you see fit. I heard that Liu Jian retired last month. Is there anyone who's going to replace him? Let your brother give it a try and get some practice. It's good for him to suffer a little when he's young. "
Hsu Shengzhe narrowed his eyes. What the old man said sounded like it was true.
Suffer?
Who was Liu Jian? He was the previous head of the Project Development Department.
According to Longhua Group's distribution of functions, such as land auctions, real estate development, project approval … these functions were all handled by the Project Development Department.
How could Xu Rulong take on this position?
Even Hsu Shengzhe was only the director of the marketing department before he became the chairman.
He had spent more than three years slowly climbing his way up.
When he first came to the company, he was only the deputy director of a department under the marketing center.
But Xu Rulong, this useless piece of trash, was appointed as the director of the Project Development Department!
Suppressing his anger, Hsu Shengzhe smiled and said, "Dad, this can only be decided after the board of directors has a meeting …"
Xu Jianghua was instantly displeased. He frowned and said, "Will the board of directors refute? Besides, Rulong entered the company on my behalf. I didn't let him join the board of directors because I'm afraid he'll mess things up. Let him train for a few years first. You can also help your brother. It's said that when brothers are united, their sharpness can cut through metal. I only have two children. You two brothers should be of one mind and take care of each other in the future. Blood is thicker than water. To beat a tiger, we need brothers. Isn't that right, Shengzhe? "
Hsu Shengzhe stopped struggling. The smile on his face became more amiable. He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll listen to dad. Brother, when can you come to the company? "
Xu Rulong saw that his son agreed and smiled. But he complained, "I said I don't want to come, but dad insisted on me coming. Isn't it enough for the company to have Second Brother? What can I do? But then again, outsiders are not trustworthy. It's better for us brothers to work together to make Longhua better. How about this, I'll come to the company in two days. If Second Brother needs anything, I'll do it. "
Hsu Shengzhe smiled and said, "Of course, you're my brother."
The two brothers chatted intimately. Xu Jianghua stared at Hsu Shengzhe for a while. Seeing that he didn't seem to care, he nodded and smiled, "That's it. Rulong, let's go back first. Don't disturb Shengzhe's business."
"Okay, Second Brother, I'll go first."
"I'll send you off."
…
Hsu Shengzhe let out a long sigh of relief until the father and son got into the car.
After standing in the same place for a while, Hsu Shengzhe's face suddenly flashed with a hint of ferocity.
You forced me to do this!
This old man is already 70 years old. Isn't it better to enjoy the rest of his life?
Yue Qin is about to give birth, and the Xu family is about to welcome the third generation. My career is successful, and my family is happy. How can I not be compared to a playboy?
What does Xu Rulong know?
Other than stirring up trouble and being jealous, he knew nothing else!
Longhua has doubled in size in a year. Isn't that enough for the old man to make up his mind?
Since when is the tradition for the eldest son to inherit the family business?
The old man is getting more and more muddled!
If that's the case, then I don't have to hesitate anymore. I'm going to be a father soon. I have to think about my wife and children.
He worked hard and diligently, not to make a wedding dress for Xu Rulong.
…
January 3rd.
The weather is getting colder. In the morning, when Li Dong went out, he almost fell.
There was ice on the road, and many cars were skidding.
When he reached the company, Li Dong summoned the logistics assistant manager to his office. He was greeted with a round of scolding!
"Didn't I remind you?
Be careful, and keep the logistics smooth!
What did you reply to me? You patted your chest and told me that it's no problem, even if it's snowing!
Now, it's not snowing yet, but the temperature has dropped a little. It's only been a few days, how many logistics problems have there been?
Our One Day Achievement project has received 125 complaints in three days. That's more than the number of complaints in the past month!
That's not all. There were 4 car accidents in three days. Is this your guarantee that there will be no problems?
If not for your professionalism in the past year, I would have asked you to get lost! "
The assistant manager's face turned pale and stammered. "Chairman, I … … This … … the roads are icy. It's the peak time for accidents. The other logistics companies are also … …"
"I don't need excuses!"
Li Dong's face was cold. "I don't care about the other companies. So far away, how much have you invested in logistics?
To develop logistics, I even delayed the development of supermarkets.
But now?
Is this the answer you are giving me?
So what if the roads are icy? Is that the reason for the problems?
It's just winter, and you all are so unreliable. How can I rest assured?
The following month will be the peak sales season. It's nearing the end of the year, and the shopping malls and supermarkets are busy. How can I rest assured? "
Li Dong was furious. After a while, he said dejectedly. "Forget it. I know I can't blame you all."
"The logistics company was established not long ago. Our goal in 2007 was to expand, and we neglected some other aspects. In addition to our One Day Achievement project, we have invested too much energy, manpower, and resources. You all can't take care of everything. We still have to expand in 2008. It's not easy to take care of the shopping malls while expanding. In another two years, the team will stabilize. It should be better. "
The assistant manager was overjoyed. "Chairman, that's true. We have invested too much energy in the One Day Achievement project. Moreover, it's so cold now … …"
"Alright. Don't find excuses. I can't be bothered to listen. How about this? For the next period, you all will be in charge of the One Day Achievement project and the distribution point expansion. As for the other express delivery, outsource them. "
"Ah?"
The assistant manager was in disbelief. Outsource?
Distance had invested so much energy in logistics, but in the end, they had outsourced their business. If word of this got out, they would be laughed at to death.
Li Dong was disappointed. "That's all we can do for now. Go talk to one or two of the Three Links and Express or SF Express. Ask them to take over our business. We have to be fast. It's almost the end of the year. We'll talk about it in the future after this year. "
The assistant manager trembled. "Chairman, do you mean, emergency?"
"Something like that. But you can take longer to negotiate. It doesn't matter if the price is higher. In short, when we don't have enough fighting power, we can only rely on external help to ensure the smooth flow of our logistics. Also, remember to sign the exclusivity agreement. I don't want to ship with Taobao. Otherwise, it will ruin our Far Away Mall's reputation. "
The assistant manager was sweating profusely. His mind was in a mess.
Although logistics was a little difficult, it was not to the point of asking for external help.
If he asked for external help now, others would laugh at him. CEO Qin would kill him when he came back.
But the chairman had already said so. Could he refute?
His expression changed for a while. Finally, the assistant manager said helplessly, "Chairman, should we ask CEO Qin about this?"
"I'll talk to CEO Qin. You do what you need to do. I don't want to see dozens of complaints every day. I don't want to hear about transport accidents! We can stabilize things here. This is also an incentive for you. If you can do well in the future, the external help will be withdrawn sooner or later. But if you can't do well, I'll have to think about whether or not to continue investing in logistics. "
The assistant manager's expression tightened. He quickly said, "Understood. Chairman, don't worry. We'll do our best!"
"Go."
Li Dong waved his hand and sent him away.
