Knock knock knock. Someone knocked on the office door. Xiao Sun, Deputy Mayor Xu's secretary, raised his head and saw Feng Yu. He lowered his head to look at his watch, and his eyelids twitched. It was already 2 am!
Even though he had called Feng Yu to meet him, the appointment was in the afternoon. Normally, when a deputy mayor asked to meet him, he would be punctual or even early.
However, Feng Yu arrived on time, but he did not enter Deputy Mayor Xu's office. Instead, he turned into Deputy Mayor Zhang's office. Xiao Sun thought that Feng Yu was there to ask for help, but Deputy Mayor Zhang did not come. Deputy Mayor Zhang's secretary did not come either. There was not even a phone call from him.
Xiao Sun knew that regardless of whether Feng Yu's request for help failed or not, he was definitely going to be in trouble today. His superior would definitely ask him why he could not even manage the time to meet someone.
"Why are you so late?" Xiao Sun shouted unhappily.
Feng Yu raised his eyebrows. "Why? Has Deputy Mayor Xu left already? Then I will come back another day. "
Xiao Sun was shocked. He quickly pulled Feng Yu aside. "Deputy Mayor Xu is waiting for you inside. Come with me."
Damn, this Feng Yu is not playing by the rules. Even if the superior has left, shouldn't you be waiting here? Just turn around and leave? What is going on?
Feng Yu swaggered into the office. Deputy Mayor Xu and Li Mingde, who heard the noise, were both reading the newspaper. They did not seem to notice someone had entered.
"Deputy Mayor Xu, Feng Yu is here."
Deputy Mayor Xu did not say anything, and Li Mingde also pretended not to see Feng Yu. Feng Yu did not care that Deputy Mayor Xu did not ask him to come in. He walked in and sat next to Li Mingde.
This time, Li Mingde could no longer pretend not to see him. He put down the newspaper and glared at Feng Yu angrily. "Why do you have no manners at all? Did I say you can come in?"
Feng Yu leaned back and found a comfortable position. He crossed his legs and said to Little Sun, "Secretary Sun, why isn't there even a cup of tea?"
Deputy Mayor Xu could not hold it in any longer. This Feng Yu was too arrogant. This was his office, Bing City's Deputy Mayor's office. Feng Yu acted like he was in his own house and even ordered Xiao Sun to pour tea!
"Ahem, Xiao Sun, you can leave now. Push back the 3 o 'clock meeting."
Deputy Mayor Xu thought that when he put down the newspaper, Feng Yu would stand up and greet him. However, Feng Yu didn't say a word. It seemed like he was resting with his eyes closed.
Originally, he and Li Mingde wanted to give Feng Yu the cold shoulder. This was also his usual "show of strength". He could suppress the other party with his aura and make the other party panic. This would make it easier for him to pressure Feng Yu later and force Feng Yu to give up his shares. But today, Feng Yu's action of resting with his eyes closed had broken his plan!
"Xiao Feng, do you know why I asked you to come here today?" Deputy Mayor Xu wanted to take back the initiative. He didn't say anything and let the other party guess.
Feng Yu opened his eyes and said: "Deputy Mayor Xu, are you talking to me? I didn't hear you clearly just now. I had just gone to Songjiang Motorcycles' sales in Bing City this afternoon. I am too busy. "
Deputy Mayor Xu was furious. Firstly, he was unhappy with the way Feng Yu addressed him. Other than in front of the Mayor, everyone would address him as Mayor Xu. But Feng Yu had to call him Deputy Mayor Xu. Secondly, Feng Yu had pretended to be confused with him. How can you be busier than me?
This young man thinks that with some connections and money, he can be arrogant?
"Xiao Feng, you don't need to pretend. You know the reason why I asked you to come here today! No matter what deal you had with the Aviation Factory, the Aviation Factory's shares in the Machinery Company must be sold back to the City! The Machinery Company is a state-owned enterprise and a collective enterprise. This will not change! "Li Mingde shouted.
Feng Yu had a surprised expression: "Manager Li, what are you talking about? The Machinery Company had always been a collective enterprise. Even after the restructuring, it is still a collective enterprise. Do you think that the Machinery Company belongs to someone now? "Feng Yu said and stared at Li Mingde.
Li Mingde was furious. Feng Yu dared to insinuate that he had the final say in the Machinery Company!
"Xiao Feng, don't try to dodge the question. I only want to ask you one question. Are you going to return the 14% shares?" Li Mingde asked angrily.
"Return? What do you mean? I had bought those shares with real money. Why are you making it sound like I had stolen those shares? Manager Li, you must be responsible for your words. "
Deputy Mayor Xu stared at Li Mingde. He was already so old, and he was still arguing with a young man. What made him speechless was that he had lost!
I've lived all these years like a dog!
Deputy Mayor Xu did not want to let Li Mingde speak again. Li Mingde could not be compared to this Feng Yu when it came to making jokes.
"Feng Yu, don't be so emotional. I called you over today is to discuss with you. The Machinery Company is the most successful restructured company in the City. It is the model of the City. You must have the controlling stake in the company. You don't need a lot of shares. You just need to sell 11% shares to the City. What do you think? "
Damn, I had used a lot of brain cells to come up with this idea to increase the shareholding in the Machinery Company. You want me to sell the shares to the City just like that?
Previously, I had helped the Machinery Company to get the Soviet Union's agriculture machinery and motorcycle production line. Do you really think that all these were for the City?
Feng Yu had thought about this for a long time. Now, these state-owned enterprises' workers were still doing well. But after 1995, there will be no job distribution, and there will be a large number of workers' children who are not skilled and irresponsible. They will drag down the whole factory.
Feng Yu had already gotten 44% of the company's shares, and he was still not satisfied. His target was to get more than 67% of the company's shares and become the controlling shareholder. He wanted the company to go according to his plans.
He was still thinking of ways to get more than 67% of the Machinery Company's shares. Now, he was asking him to give up his shares?
Dream on!
"Deputy Mayor Xu, the reason why the Machinery Company could be so profitable now is because of the Soviet Union's machinery and technologies that I had bought at low prices. Let's not talk about this. Just look at the old factories in the City. Their products are very competitive in the Chinese market. What is the reason? Now, just because the City wants to control the Machinery Company, you want me to sell my shares? I want to ask, on what basis? "
Deputy Mayor Xu almost choked to death when he heard Feng Yu's words. He knew that he had tried to persuade Feng Yu with "kind words". Li Mingde was the one who was overbearing. Today, he was playing the role of the good guy. He thought that with Li Mingde's cooperation, even if Feng Yu did not agree, he would still relent. But he did not expect Feng Yu to be so firm!
He knew why the City's industries had changed so much. It was because the Soviet Union's advanced machinery and technologies were imported at low prices. The old factories were sold off. Although the City had given some money, most of it was loans from the banks. Actually, the City had not invested much.
But now, the City's industries had started to recover. It was the glory of the past few years.
All of these had a lot to do with Feng Yu. It was not an exaggeration to say that Feng Yu had contributed a lot to Bing City!
Now, Feng Yu had asked him a question, and he did not know how to answer. But in his heart, he firmly believed that this was for the good of the City and the people of Bing City. He must continue to fight!
