Chapter 914 Tao Wuji: The most worrying thing has happened
Tao Wuji walked down the stairs on his way home in a daze. He stumbled and almost fell. After returning to the rental house in a mess, Tao Wuji lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, and the scene at the wine table kept replaying in his mind.
He rejected Lao Ma's request, and the two ended up parting on bad terms.
But Tao Wuji knew in his heart that there were a few moments when his heart was moved.
From Lao Ma, he seemed to see himself thirty years later. He was obviously capable, but because he had no background, he could only live a life of idleness and wait for death, with no place to display his talents.
He was not convinced. Why could Qin Hao rise to the top while he could only be an ordinary person who did nothing?
"Should I remind Lao Qin?"
"No, if that happens, Manager Ma won't even be able to retire normally, which is unfair to him."
As he was struggling between his conscience and desire, sleepiness came over him, and soon Tao Wuji fell asleep. But he had many dreams that night.
At the same time, Qin Hao and Su Jianren had also arrived at Wu Xianlong's villa.
In the tea room, Wu Xianlong, as the host, warmly invited Qin Hao and the others to sit down.
As soon as the tea was served, Zhao Hui arrived.
"Uncle Zhao, you are finally here. Please take a seat." Wu Xiaofei was like a hardworking little bee, busy in front of and behind people. At this moment, Qin Hao and the other two were like the God of Wealth in his eyes.
When Su Jianren saw Zhao Hui, he snorted in dissatisfaction, but Zhao Hui sat opposite him calmly.
Wu Xianlong saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, it's a rare opportunity to invite you to my small teahouse today. It's a great honor for me. Let's have some tea first. When the food is ready, we can have a few drinks at the table."
"Su Xing, the chef of Mr. Wu's family is really good. We are in for a treat." Qin Hao winked at Su Jianren.
Although somewhat reluctant, Su Jianren still expressed his opinion: "Thank you very much, Mr. Wu, for your hospitality."
Upon hearing this, Wu Xianlong's smile widened and he personally poured tea for the three people.
"No outsiders can sit here today. I'm the youngest here, so let me say some words." After Qin Hao finished speaking, he glanced at Su Jianren and Zhao Hui, and seeing that the two had no intention of speaking, he continued.
"Xie Zhiyuan is a greedy man who will do anything to achieve his goals. He has no bottom line. Once you get caught up with him, the consequences will be disastrous. I suggest that the three of us work together to keep him where he belongs."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Jianren gritted his teeth and said, "I have no objection. As long as Xie Zhiyuan, the bastard, gets the punishment he deserves, I will fully cooperate."
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Zhao Hui.
Zhao Hui hesitated for a moment and then said, "I have no objection either."
Wu Xianlong and Wu Xiaofei looked at each other, with uncontrollable surprise in their eyes. At the same time, they looked at Qin Hao more seriously. They knew very well that Qin Hao's role here was far more than just a go-between.
"That's great. To be honest, when I first met Xie Zhiyuan, I felt that he was unruly. It's not bad to make money, but you can't cross the line. If you do whatever it takes to achieve your goal, what does that make you? A hooligan."
Wu Xianlong's words immediately resonated with Su Jianren: "Mr. Wu is absolutely right. Xie Zhiyuan is a gangster and a scoundrel. He was like this when he was in college."
Seeing that Su Jianren had digressed, Qin Hao tugged at his sleeve and said sternly, "Since we have reached a consensus on the goal, let's discuss how to implement it."
Zhao Hui frowned: "Xie Zhiyuan is very cunning. It's not that easy to catch him."
Su Jianren was about to retort, but Qin Hao stopped him in advance: "Zhao Xing, don't worry about this. Xie Zhiyuan will do anything to make money. As long as we figure out how he makes money, it won't be difficult to find out his fox tail."
"In fact, the Long Beach project gives us some idea of how Xie Zhiyuan makes money. Although the Long Beach project is promoted by Yuanzhou Trust, in order to get the bank to approve it as soon as possible, a guarantee company called Qingyuan Guarantee is involved. Once the Long Beach project goes bankrupt, Qingyuan Guarantee will pay the compensation."
"Although I don't know how much Yuanzhou Trust will pay Qingyuan Guarantee for such a 2 billion project, it must be worth a lot. If I'm not mistaken, Xie Zhiyuan must be related to this guarantee company."
Zhao Hui's eyes lit up when he heard that, and he looked at Qin Hao with admiration.
Su Jianren slapped his thigh and said, "Yeah, why didn't I think in this direction? As long as we can prove the relationship between Xie Zhiyuan and Qingyuan Guarantee, he will be charged with embezzlement, and Yuanzhou Trust will definitely not let him go."
Wu Xianlong gave Qin Hao a thumbs up when he heard this: "Haha, now I finally understand why Su Xing trusts you so much. You are resourceful and thoughtful. You are really a talent."
With one sentence, he praised two people explicitly and implicitly, showing that he is indeed a veteran in the business world.
Zhao Hui pointed out: "This is just your speculation. It is difficult to bring down Xie Zhiyuan with this without real evidence."
"So, we need to find conclusive evidence first." Qin Hao said calmly.
Wu Xianlong smiled and filled Qin Hao's cup of tea: "It seems that our little Zhuge has made some progress?"
"Yes, Xiao Qin, don't keep us in suspense." Su Jianren now wished that Xie Zhiyuan could go to jail immediately.
"I have a friend who used to work at Yuanzhou Trust. Her distant cousin happens to be Xie Zhiyuan's wife, Shen Jing. She once told me that the person Xie Zhiyuan trusts most is his secretary Amy. There are some things that Xie Zhiyuan is not convenient to show up for, and he cannot let outsiders know. What will he do?"
As soon as Qin Hao opened his mouth, Wu Xiaofei knew that the person he was talking about was Tian Xiaohui.
Wu Xianlong clapped his hands and exclaimed: "It seems that if we can capture this Amy, Xie Zhiyuan will have no way out."
Su Jianren frowned and said, "But, Xie Zhiyuan trusts this woman so much, I'm afraid she won't betray Xie Zhiyuan easily, right?"
"Su Xing, I have experience in dealing with women, so let me take care of this matter." Wu Xiaofei volunteered.
Wu Xianlong warned his son, "Then I'll leave this Amy to you. Remember to do it well. I'll give you three days. Is that enough?"
"Three days is enough."
Wu Xianlong nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Su Jianren and Zhao Hui and said, "Although my son doesn't look very serious at ordinary times, he is quite capable when he works hard. There will be good news in three days."
Just at this time the nanny came over to remind them that the food was ready, and Wu Xianlong immediately and enthusiastically invited Qin Hao and others to the table.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Wu Xianlong saw Qin Hao's face flushed and thought he was drunk, so he took the opportunity to ask: "Xiao Qin, let's kick Xie Zhiyuan out and talk about Junlong Real Estate's financing."
"This is easy. Our bank has more than one trust company that cooperates with it. We can find a trustworthy one and tailor a plan for Junlong Real Estate. Then Zhao Xing and Su Xing will sign and the funds will be in place soon." Qin Hao said while pretending to be drunk.
Seeing that Xie Zhiyuan was going to jail, Su Jianren was in high spirits and drank a lot of wine. He staggered behind Qin Hao and patted his shoulder to support him: "That's right, when the time comes, you guys prepare the information and go directly to Xiao Qin, and I will sign it."
Wu Xianlong was overjoyed when he heard this. He toasted Qin Hao and Su Jianren with three glasses of wine, and then looked at Zhao Hui with anticipation.
Zhao Hui nodded slightly at him, as a sign of agreement.
Now Wu Xianlong and his son finally felt relieved.
The meal was enjoyed by both hosts and guests alike. Finally, Wu Xianlong arranged for people to send Qin Hao and his party away separately.
Perhaps because he drank too much last night, Su Jianren took a day off and did not come to work, so Qin Hao was very busy the whole day. Now the entire Binjiang Branch knows that if they want to get Su Jianren's signature, they have to go through Qin Hao first.
Tao Wuji sat bored at his workstation, watching Qin Hao busying around, with a struggle in his heart.
Old Ma pretended to be calm as he walked up to Tao Wuji and whispered, "See, this is the benefit of having a background. Having ability alone is useless. If you are not careful, you will end up being worse than me."
"People with different ideals cannot work together, but don't worry, I won't tell Lao Qin about your affairs." The balance in Tao Wuji's heart finally leaned towards neutrality.
Lao Ma sneered: "It's up to you, there is no evidence anyway."
After Lao Ma left, Tao Wuji was in a daze when he suddenly received a call from Austin, the financial director of Henghui Technology, asking if he could approve another loan for them, and his tone was very urgent.
Tao Wuji's heart tightened, and after repeated questioning, Austin finally told the truth. It turned out that the contract between Henghui Technology and Huali Group had fallen through. According to Dr. Xia, as long as they could hold on for three months, Huali Group would definitely sign a contract with them.
However, as of now, Henghui Technology has no money in its account. In addition, some private lenders have been unable to pay the interest, and some people have already gone to Henghui Technology's office to move equipment to pay off their debts.
Tao Wuji almost fell down with his eyes black. Things were developing in the worst direction he had expected. He was very clear about the situation of Henghui Technology. Without a large amount of capital injection, it could not even last half a month, let alone three months.
After hanging up the phone, Tao Wuji hesitated for a long time, and finally found Qin Hao during lunch.
"Lao Qin, can you approve another loan for Henghui Technology?"
Qin Hao's heart moved, and he asked, "Has the contract between Henghui Technology and Huali fallen through?"
"No, it's just because of the price that we haven't reached an agreement yet. Dr. Xia is confident that he can get the order from Huali within three months." Tao Wuji tried to make his words sound calmer.
Qin Hao pointed out mercilessly: "Do you think Henghui Technology can survive for three months with its current financial situation?"
"Listen to me, Lao Qin. High-tech companies like Henghui Technology do have a weaker ability to resist risks. But once they survive this difficult start-up period, they may be able to drive the development of the entire industry."
"That has to happen if it can survive." Qin Hao interrupted impatiently: "Do you know how many technology companies of this type go bankrupt every year?"
"Moreover, even if it succeeds, what good will it bring to our Binjiang branch? You have to understand that we are a bank and our relationship with enterprises is a loan, not a venture capital. We are taking such a big risk to continue to lend more money, and in the end we only get a tiny amount of interest."
"Have you ever thought that once Henghui Technology can no longer sustain itself and goes bankrupt, these loans will become bad debts, and whose money will be lost in the end?"
Tao Wuji was silent for a moment. In fact, he understood all these principles, but if Henghui Technology went bankrupt, the 5 million he had loaned out before would become a bad debt. This was his first business after joining the corporate department. If it was recorded in the file...
Just when Tao Wuji was in despair, a business card appeared in front of him.
"What Henghui Technology needs now is not a bank loan, but venture capital. Give this business card to Dr. Xia. He knows what to do."
After saying that, Qin Hao put down the business card and turned to leave. Tao Wuji held the business card in his hand, feeling mixed emotions.
That afternoon, Qin Hao received a call from his professional manager.
"Boss Qin, Dr. Xia from Henghui Technology has just contacted me. I told him your request. He said other conditions are negotiable, but can we not lay off the financial director Austin? After all, he has been working for Henghui Technology since its inception."
Qin Hao interrupted firmly: "No, all conditions must be met, especially this financial director must be fired."
In Qin Hao's opinion, Austin, the financial director, bears a great responsibility for the current situation of Henghui Technology.
For a technology company, the CFO may not know other things, but must be able to find a reliable source of funds for the company, because technology companies are generally not profitable in the early stages. Under fierce market competition, what is tested is often not whose product strength is better, but who has enough money to burn.
Let’s take a look at how Austin got money for Henghui Technology. It was either private loan sharks, credit companies, or bank loans. None of them is a source of funds that can support Henghui Technology’s long-term burning of money.
With only this one financial director, why not fire him and keep him around for the New Year?
"Okay, then I'll ask Dr. Xia to come to the company and discuss it in detail."
"Well, don't be impatient, talk slowly, and remember that you are not allowed to give in on any of my conditions."
That night, Tao Wuji received a call from Austin. The man in his thirties was crying with tears and snot streaming down his face.
After asking carefully, Tao Wuji found out that Austin had been fired.
"Tao Wuji, you said that I have worked hard for Henghui Technology and devoted myself to it, right? But in the end, I was kicked out."
After Tao Wuji comforted him with a few words, he finally asked the question that concerned him most.
"Nahenghui Technology"
"It's signed. Old Xia used 35% of Henghui Technology's equity to obtain a capital injection of million US dollars. The first installment of funds will be received once the new financial director takes office."
