Lu Yiwei only threw it away when the cigarette burned his hand. Returning to reality, Lu Yiwei pretended to be calm and smiled. "As long as all of you are doing well, I will be happy."
Lu Yiwei hid his true feelings, and Li Chunni felt that there was no point in continuing the conversation. "Tell me, why are you looking for me?"
Speaking of proper business, Lu Yiwei sat upright and still. He briefly explained the county's restructuring of Shuyang Coal Mine.
After listening to him, Li Chunni put on the posture of a shrewd businessman and said, "Yiwei, you also know that my company has just been established, and the current business dealings are all small, so I can't make any money. The acquisition of Shuyang Coal Mine is my company's strategic plan for this year and even in the future. As a businessman, I look forward to working with the government the most, and I'm most afraid of the government interfering. Since your county government has decided on restructuring, why don't you do it completely? Why do you still want to hold a 35% stake? This is neither a citizen nor a country. Oh, and you still need to seek the county government's approval to hold a board meeting? What's the point of restructuring then? "
Li Chunni's words did make sense, but Shuyang Coal Mine's current situation did not allow for privatization. He said, "Director Li, if I were in your shoes, I would agree with your point of view, and I will also buy it. But from Nanyang County's point of view, and from the people's point of view, I don't think it has reached the standard yet. Shuyang Coal Mine is the economic pillar of Nanyang County, and 40% of the county's income comes from this mine. If the income is suddenly cut off, how are we going to feed the 300,000 people in the county? It's true that after you take over Shuyang Coal Mine, there will be double the benefits, or even more. But the people and officials will not understand. If we put it more seriously, you are selling off Nanyang's assets, and some people with ulterior motives will definitely use this to accuse you of pocketing your own money and causing a serious loss of assets. They might even put a huge hat on County Zhang's head. At that time, your company will not have a good time either. "
Li Chunni listened to Lu Yiwei's analysis, but she was still unmoved. "Sincerity. I want the greatest sincerity. If that's the case, where is your sincerity? As for how to develop in the future, I won't think about it for now. I only look at the immediate benefits. As a businessman, what we pursue is to maximize profits. If you sell all the enterprises to me, I will pay you all the money you have to pay every year. We will even do something for the people with our utmost sincerity. But if you follow County Zhang's suggestion, I can't accept it. "
Lu Yiwei did not give up. He continued, "Manager Li, what do you think about this? The management of the company will be completely handed over to you. The county government will definitely not interfere with the management. The county government can convert the land and minerals into shares. In addition, the county can consider reducing your taxes for three years. "
"What about the debts? Who will pay them?"
"Whoever benefits will bear the consequences!"
"What about the two thousand employees?"
"You will bear the same responsibility."
Li Chunni suddenly sneered and said, "Is this your greatest sincerity? Are you kidding me? "
Lu Yiwei did not back down and said, "Manager Li, I know you can't accept it now. But the coal market will pick up in the next few years, and you will be able to earn back the losses in a few days. I think this investment is worth it."
Li Chunni suddenly stood up and walked to Lu Yiwei. She leaned over and asked, "Yiwei, you must tell me the truth. Why are you doing this? What benefits can you get from this? "
This question stumped Lu Yiwei. He was stunned and did not know how to answer.
Li Chunni saw Lu Yiwei did not speak, and she stood up. "Yiwei, I will also tell you the truth. The acquisition of Shu Yang Coal Mine was approved by one of the leaders in the province. If not, we will not invest in it. Do you understand what I am saying?"
Lu Yiwei understood immediately. Li Chunni was trying to say that this coal mine was also owned by one of the leaders. Lu Yiwei argued and said, "Manager Li, I know your company is cautious with every investment. I sincerely hope that you can consider it from the county government's point of view."
"Haha!" Li Chunni suddenly laughed and said, "Manager Li, you have been calling me Manager Li since the beginning. Are you here to represent Nanyang County today? Have you forgotten that we are classmates? You have not answered my question just now. "
Lu Yiwei was a little uncomfortable after being rebuked by Li Chunni. However, for the sake of this project, Lu Yiwei was ready to risk it all. He said, "Chun Ni, I'll be honest with you. Everything I've done today is for the sake of the citizens of Nanyang County, as well as for myself. I do not have Sanjue's courage, and I do not have your ability. I am destined to struggle in the government for the rest of my life. I do not know how the future will turn out, but I will not let go of any opportunity to fight for a glimmer of hope for tomorrow. "
Li Chunni held onto the table and looked out of the window. Her eyes were clearly much softer than before. She heard a man could put down his dignity and shout out the truth from the bottom of his heart. How much courage did that take? She turned around and said, "Yiwei, I know you haven't been doing well these past few years. As an old friend and a good brother, it's only natural for me to reach out and help you out. However, this is business, and we're spending real money. Do you understand?"
Hearing this, Lu Yiwei was shocked and asked, "How do you know that I have not been doing well?"
Li Chunni suddenly smiled and said, "Isn't it easy for me to know what I want to know?"
"Alright." Lu Yiwei felt greatly insulted and stood up, "Manager Li, sorry for disturbing your rest. I will take my leave first." After saying that, he rushed out of the door.
Li Chunni did not know that she had touched Lu Yiwei's sensitive nerve. He chased after her madly, but Lu Yiwei had already run far away, leaving behind an incomplete silhouette.
Li Chunni closed the door in disappointment. Her face slightly twitched as she leaned against the door and closed her eyes in deep thought. Slowly, she squatted on the ground, hugged her head, bit her lips, and cried bitterly. She knew exactly why she was crying.
After leaving the gate of Li Chunni's company, Lu Yiwei drove the car aimlessly on the street. Thinking of Li Chunni's contemptuous eyes and altruistic tone, he felt suffocated in his heart. Was this still the kind and gentle Li Chunni from before? She had completely changed. She had become pedantic and worldly. Her mind was full of money and she did not care about human feelings at all. Lu Yiwei had already made up his mind. This was the first and last time he would go to Li Chunni's door to beg. Even if the restructuring of Shuyang Coal Mine was unsuccessful, he would never beg her humbly.
Feeling unhappy, Lu Yiwei really wanted to find a channel to vent his anger. After thinking about it, he found three channels.
Sanjō was still busy and did not even notice that Lu Yiwei was in a bad mood. It was not until Lu Yiwei mentioned that he was leaving that Sanjō stopped what he was doing. Seeing the worried look on Lu Yiwei's face, he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Lu Yiwei held the roof of the car and looked into the distance. "Do you have time? If you have time, have a drink with me. If you don't, then forget it. "
His tone was also not right. Sanjō hurriedly said, "Okay, even if I have a big matter, I have to let it go. Let's go, get in the car!" After that, he turned his head and said a few words to the others before getting in his car.
Seeing that Lu Yiwei was about to drive, Sanjō hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't drive if you're in a bad mood. Get in my car."
Lu Yiwei hesitated again and again before jumping into Sanjō's car. On the way, Sanjō secretly glanced at Lu Yiwei's expression as he drove. He wanted to ask several times, but he swallowed his words.
When they arrived at the entrance of a restaurant, Sanjō stopped the car. After entering the private room, Sanjō tentatively asked, "Do you want to call Black Circle and the others?"
Lu Yiwei shook his head and said, "Tonight, no one will be invited. Just the two of us will have a heart-to-heart talk."
"Okay!" Sanjō said, "Then the two of us will drink until we're drunk. We'll relive the madness of college." After that, he said to the waiter, "Bring two beers."
Before the food was served, Lu Yiwei opened a bottle of beer and gulped it down.
Seeing this, Sanjō did not stop him. He also drank a bottle.
