On the eve of New Year¡¯s Day in 2001, someone joked with Zhang Ke that the Hurun Rich List was just about killing pigs. Otherwise, why would the Yan family of Hongxin be on the list as the top richest man and fall apart within two months of appearing in public?
Zhang Ke just laughed it off. He had always planned to go to Wenzhou for a walk, but he didn't expect it to be postponed until New Year's Eve in 2001.
Zhang Ke didn't like to fly. He started from Haizhou and took the road from Xinting to Wenzhou. It was only a five-hour drive. He and Xu Si sat in the car and talked without feeling bored for too long. . In addition to Liang Wenjun and Wang Cailing, who went to Wenzhou to visit Wang Cailing's elder brother Wang Zhi's family, Ma Li and Lin Bing, president of Dongda Chuangyu's e-commerce affairs department and CEO of Zhuoyu.com, were also accompanied by Du Fei, Meng Le and others.
Zhang Ke went to Wenzhou to fulfill the promise he and Xu Si made to Zhao Zi to go to Wenzhou to visit her; Du Fei, Meng Le, Ma Li, Lin Bing and others accompanied them, and in their own words they rushed to Wenzhou to share the stolen goods. go.
According to normal practice, Haisu Technology has to suspend trading indefinitely and not open trading until the case is clarified. However, this approach is fatal to Haisu Technology. It is unimaginable that Haisu Technology's business will have many problems during the trial of the case. If good maintenance is delayed for one or two years, I am afraid that the shell of a listed company will be left again. It will not only cause great harm to other small and medium-sized investors, but also harm the economy of Donghai Province. In addition, the Department of Science and Technology of Donghai Province, the Department of Health, and the Institute of Software of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are also major shareholders of Haisu Technology. They do not want Haisu Technology to collapse completely. At this time, they can only pin their hopes on Kumho.
As a creditor, Xintong Bank took over Horizon Investment and all other properties of the Yan family. It also took over all the assets and related industries of Jingdian Real Estate, which naturally included the equity assets of Horizon Investment and Jingdian Real Estate in Haisu Technology.
Whether Kumho can successfully take over Haisu Technology, the negotiation partner is not Yanjia or Jingjing Real Estate, but Xintong Bank, which is supervised by the people of East Zhejiang Province. Zhang Ke thinks that even if he wants to take over Haisu Technology, it should be Dongda Chuangyu took over, so Du Fei and Meng Le were put in charge. The most complex asset of Haisu Technology is the 8818 e-commerce business, so Ma Li and Lin Bing also accompanied him; Lin Bing was already Ma Li's girlfriend at this time, and the two had reached the point of discussing marriage.
The Ziyuan Villa managed by Zhao Zi is located on the bank of Yima Lake in the southern suburbs of Wenzhou.
After arriving in Wenzhou, Liang Wenjun and Wang Cailing stayed directly at Wang Zhi's home, while Du Fei, Meng Le, Ma Li, Lin Bing and others stayed at a hotel arranged by Xintong Bank in the city. Zhang Ke and Xu Si first stayed at Ziyuan Villa for one night, and then entered the city the next day, asking Xu Si to stay and chat with Zhao Zi for two more days. Besides, Xu Si was not willing to participate in Kumho's business activities.
At noon, Zhao Yang, deputy secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and acting governor of East Zhejiang Province, held a banquet at the Provincial Government Hotel to greet Zhang Ke. Zhang Ke specially brought Wang Cailing¡¯s brother Wang Zhi with him and formally introduced him to Zhao Yang and other people in East Zhejiang Province. The awareness of provincial and municipal leaders attending the event. Wang Zhi's wife's uncle, Hou Chaogui, was originally the deputy secretary-general of the Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee Office. Due to political factional competition, the former Municipal Party Committee Secretary Jin Liping was squeezed out of Wenzhou after Wenzhou came to power; after the new Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee Secretary took office, Hou Chaogui also At the same time, Wenzhou was transferred back to serve as the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee and entered the Standing Committee. Naturally, there was no need for Wang Zhi to transfer to the province in an unnecessary move.
"The father and son Yan Kuanhe and Yan Wenjie have a profound influence on the economy and politics of Wenzhou and even eastern Zhejiang. This mess will take a long time to sort out." After the meal, Zhao Yang invited Zhang Ke to drink tea alone and chat, " This is the right time for Kumho to enter eastern Zhejiang, so you should be calm."
"Xintong Bank, if I say I'm not greedy, I'm lying to you; Wenzhou Steel, if I say I'm not greedy, I'm lying to you; Horizon Construction, if I say I'm not greedy, that's also a lie. "Yours," Zhang Ke said with a smile, "Hongxin is poking such a big hole. People with the same stance as Jiang Minzhi will be the happiest. It would be best if it can trigger a national reflection on the development of non-public economies - I can do it at this time Are you reaching out to pick peaches? You can¡¯t do it even if you¡¯re itchy! Even if it¡¯s Haisu Technology, I still have to pretend to be chasing ducks to put it on the shelf, and I¡¯m very reluctant. In fact, you know how reluctant I am!¡±
Zhao Yang laughed. He also knew that Zhang Ke was not shirk. In order to establish a more stable development cornerstone for Kumho, he must have the courage to give up some interests and not reach out to Xintong Bank, Wenzhou Steel, or Horizon Construction. Indeed, It requires considerable willpower.
This is not to say that Kumho is not influential enough or does not receive enough political support. Since the founding of the People¡¯s Republic of China, the concepts of public and non-public have taken root in the minds of quite a few people. Thinking about Kumho¡¯s development over the years, it is precisely this Not being greedy allows it to develop rapidly while having a solid foundation.
Even if CITIC Bank, as a creditor, transferred approximately 71% of the equity of Haisu Technology on behalf of Jingdian Real Estate and Horizon Investment, Zhang Ke resolutely refused to accept it in full. Even at the cabbage price, he was only "willing" to take 35% of the equity. Other parts are composed ofJinding Technology, a subsidiary of the Hainan Provincial Department of Science and Technology, and the Institute of Software of the Chinese Academy of Sciences took over, and will jointly take over Haisu Technology with the Donghai Provincial Department of Science and Technology and the Institute of Software of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Zhao Yang waved his hand and said: "Kumho is willing to give up these things today, and he will definitely earn back several times in the future. It's just that it's hard for me to clean up these messes"
"It's hard work for those who can do it. Isn't it up to you to turn the tide?" Zhang Ke said with a smile.
In the evening, Hou Chaogui, Wang Zhi¡¯s wife¡¯s uncle and Secretary-General of the Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee, invited him to dinner. Zhang Ke left Zhao Yang before dinner and rushed to the hotel where Hou Chaogui was hosting a banquet.
Ma Li and Lin Bing also arrived at the hotel by car and insisted that Hou Chaogui not stand at the hotel door to greet them. Zhang Ke, Ma Wu and Lin Bing walked upstairs where the banquet was being held.
"71% of the equity of Haisu Technology has the same price, but the nature is completely different. The part of the equity that Dongda Chuangyu took over is precisely the lowest value untradable legal person stock, but the price paid is not a penny less than that of Jinding Technology and the Chinese Academy of Sciences. , many people have doubts" Ma Li walked beside Zhang Ke and softly discussed their afternoon negotiations.
"We are looking ahead. Why don't we want to part with the 120 million profit from Dongda Chuangyu at this time!" Zhang Ke explained to Ma Li with a smile, "We suffered a loss this time, but compared to Jinding Technology I suffered a loss with the Chinese Academy of Sciences. In fact, I took a lot of advantage, because Jinding Technology and the Chinese Academy of Sciences were in front of me, so I didn¡¯t make irresponsible remarks to others even if I took advantage. Just because I suffered a relative loss, in the company In terms of dominance, they will at least let us have some Because the part of the equity taken over by Jinding Technology and the Chinese Academy of Sciences can be sold directly in the securities market after the expiration date. If they see that the situation in the securities market is not going well and want to sell it for arbitrage, Dongfang Dachuangyu can absorb the bargains and hold the controlling stake of Haisu Technology in its hands, so that there is no need to worry about others making irresponsible remarks. For Haisu Technology, I want to truly build a software industrial park ¡¡±
Zhang Ke wanted to say something to Ma Li, but suddenly Lin Bing stopped and looked ahead. Zhang Ke felt strange and looked like he was seeing an acquaintance. He followed Lin Bing's gaze and turned to look over. Unexpectedly, he would meet an unexpected acquaintance here: Wei Dongqiang.
Wei Dongqiang is wearing a suit and leather shoes. Judging from his appearance, he goes to high-end hotels and has an extraordinary bearing. I guess he has been quite happy in the two years since he left Jianye. Zhang Ke didn't care and glanced at Lin Bing. For a long time, Lin Bing had been obsessed with Wei Dongqiang's leaving without saying goodbye. Wei Dongqiang's ruthlessness made her very hurt. It took Ma Ma unremitting pursuit for a long time and the emotional foundation of working together to let her give up her relationship with Wei Dongqiang. As for whether she gave up completely, others had no way of knowing. Lin Bing just stood there in panic. There was no movement there, as if a restraining spell had been cast on someone.
Wei Dongqiang also saw Zhang Ke and Lin Bing. The surprise on his face disappeared in an instant, and he put on a fake smile and walked towards them. If he cared about Lin Bing's feelings, Zhang Ke would have turned away and walked away.
"Hello, I didn't expect you to come to Wenzhou. Why didn't you contact me? At least let me do my best as a landlord." Wei Dongqiang smiled more naturally and said in a loud voice, as if he was meeting long-lost friends by chance.
Zhang Ke looked at Wei Dongqiang and thought, no one knew you were in Wenzhou! Seeing Lin Bing biting her lip and about to cry, Ma Li immediately wanted to understand who the young man in a suit was in front of him. He walked to Lin Bing's side and patted her shoulder gently, hoping that she would feel better.
Wei Dongqiang saw Ma Li's little moves, and a strange look flashed in Wei Dongqiang's eyes. In the blink of an eye, he laughed loudly and said, "This is your boyfriend, right? I've always been worried about you, and it seems I don't have to worry now¡ª ¡ªSince you are in Wenzhou, you must let me do my best as a landlord tonight, right here. You are really good at choosing a place. The Prince Hotel is the most exclusive restaurant in Wenzhou. I will treat you here. , which just reflects my sincerity" He walked over and took Lin Bing's arm to walk in, as if he wanted to treat them to a meal.
Zhang Ke really wanted to remind him that they showed up at the Prince Hotel because someone was treating them. Of course, he stood quietly together and let Wei Dongqiang perform to his heart's content. Maybe it was Lin Bing's relationship that made him so rude? When Lin Bing first met Wei Dongqiang in Wenzhou, she was completely panicked. She held Wei Dongqiang's arm and passively followed him inside. Ma Li couldn't laugh or cry, so he had to follow Lin Bing and walked in. Zhang Ke sighed softly and followed in, thinking of the grievances he had with Wei Dongqiang over the years that were not grudges, so what if he had a meal he invited? As for Hou Chaogui, just ask Fu Jun to say hello.
Wei Dongqiang pushed open the door of a box, and Zhang Ke looked around and saw four people sitting in the box. Wei Dongqiang asked Zhang Ke, Lin Bing, and Ma Li to follow him in, and said to the people who were already sitting in the box: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to meet some old friends from Jianye here. I invited themWould you mind if you come over and join us? "
"" There was a middle-aged fat man in the box. He glanced at Zhang Ke and the others with a frown, as if he was unhappy that Wei Dongqiang did this.
Wei Dongqiang pushed Zhang Ke out and interrupted: "Mr. Xie, this friend of mine's father is the mayor of a prefecture-level city in Donghai. I didn't expect to meet him here"
The middle-aged fat man might have thought: The mayor of Donghai Province has nothing to do with him, but he was also a tactful person, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, since you are a friend of Manager Wei, then sit down." Wei Dongqiang was relieved. He pulled up a chair and invited Zhang Ke and Lin Bing to sit down. In order to show his status, he ordered a young man in a jacket to go out to find service: "Go and ask the waiter to bring three sets of bowls and chopsticks!" The middle-aged fat man didn't even think about it. Deliberately trying to please Zhang Ke, he instead spoke eagerly to a young man in a suit next to him: "Xiao Wei is not sensible, will Mr. Chen mind? Yesterday Xiao Dong told me that Mr. Chen was willing to eat this meal as a favor. Yesterday I I'm really excited. After dinner, the next activities are arranged like this Are you satisfied with it, Mr. Chen?"
Zhang Ke looked at it and thought that this young man turned out to be the protagonist of this banquet.
The young man who was called "Gong Chen" by the middle-aged fat man did not hear the middle-aged fat man's words. He stared at Ma Li and Lin Bing for a long time to confirm that he had not seen the wrong person. His face turned red and he stood up respectfully: "Ma Li." General Manager, Manager Lin, I really didn¡¯t know you were friends with Manager Wei, and Manager Wei never mentioned to me that you were his friends"
Everyone at the table was dumbfounded. They stared at the young man named Chen twice, and then at Lin Bing and Ma Li. The middle-aged fat man reacted quickly. He stood up as if he was jumping and came over to shake his hand. Ma Li's hand: "Mr. Ma, it's a pleasure to meet you. Xiao Wei always tells me that Zhuo Yu's Ma Li is his most outstanding alumni of Dongda University. Of course, Xiao Chen is not bad either - this Xiao Wei, You actually made such a big joke on me! I know, he was complaining about the low salary I offered him. Indeed, Xiao Wei and Ma have always been friends. They are talents at the same level as Mr. Ma. As a general manager, I There are not enough seats for him. My surname is Gong, and Shenhui Logistics will rely more on Mr. Ma from now on" The middle-aged fat man took out his business card and stuffed it into Lin Bing's hand.
Ma Li and Lin Bing were both caught off guard. Who knew such a coincidence would happen. After the Hongxin department fell apart, Zhuoyu, which had never been able to enter the e-commerce market in eastern Zhejiang, finally got the opportunity to enter the eastern Zhejiang region. A young man named Chen is the head of Zhuoyu¡¯s marketing department in eastern Zhejiang and is responsible for selecting people in the Wenzhou area. Logistics partner, I didn't expect that Wei Dongqiang would be the manager of a logistics company in Wenzhou two years after leaving Jianye.
Wei Dongqiang was dumbfounded. Zhang Ke sat there calmly. Seeing the complicated look in Wei Dongqiang's eyes, he sighed softly in his heart. He didn't want to embarrass him any more, so he said to Ma Li: "We've all met before. , let Mr. Chen take care of other things." He stood up and walked out of the box.
At this time, the box door was opened from the outer door. Fu Jun and Wang Zhi led two middle-aged people over. The younger middle-aged man came over and held Zhang Ke's hand: "Hello, how are you?" Okay, I am Hou Chaogui. I have talked about Ke Shao to Wang Zhi many times, but I have never had a chance to meet This is our Wenzhou New Municipal Party Committee Secretary Qin Chaoyang. He also wants to have a chance to have a drink with Ke Shao. I I took the initiative and invited Secretary Qin to come over - since Mr. Ke meets his old friends in Jianye here, then Secretary Qin and I will come and propose a few glasses of wine to Mr. Ke¡¯s old friends and friends"
The middle-aged fat man stood up and wanted to save Ma Li and the others for dinner. When he saw the new municipal party committee secretary and the municipal party committee secretary-general coming in to propose a toast, he was left to see the wind and waves. His eyes were dumbfounded and his tongue was stiff. He wanted to say something for the occasion, but he spat out every word. Without coming out, I was thinking: How could Wei Dongqiang pretend to be a grandson in this shitty life?
Wei Dongqiang sat there with a sense of loss, looking at the well-dressed figures in front of him, he felt that his eyes were all phantoms
Zhang Ke didn't want to embarrass Wei Dongqiang anymore, so he made a gesture of invitation and walked out of the box with Qin Chaoyang, Hou Chaogui and others. Then he smiled and said to them: "Secretary Qin and Secretary-General Hou are really brave enough to trouble you to come down and toast me. I was still thinking of asking Secretary General Hou to introduce me to Secretary Qin. This meal has fulfilled two wishes" Walking up the stairs side by side, Ma Li and Lin Bing naturally did not stay.
At night, everyone else stayed in the hotel in the city. Zhang Ke naturally went out of the city to Ziyuan Villa to accompany Xu Si. In the early morning, the mobile phone on the bedside suddenly rang. Zhang Ke turned on the light and picked up the phone to read. He looked around and saw that it was Lin Bing's phone call. Looking at the green light outside the window, he wondered why Lin Bing was calling him at this time.
"Who is it?" Xu Si was also woken up by the vibrating sound of his cell phone. His arms as white as jade lay across the quilt, and he asked lazily.
"Lin Bing, why are you calling me now? What's the problem? Ma Li is not beside her pillow?" Zhang Ke said.?, Lin Bing and Ma Li are both adults talking about marriage, and they naturally sleep together when they go out. He muttered like this, pressed the call button, and joked: "Hey, what's the point of calling me at this time?" Something? Don¡¯t tell me to wake up at night to go to the toilet!"
Lin Bing¡¯s broken crying suddenly came from the other end of the phone.
Zhang Ke was startled. He had never heard Lin Bing cry like this. Even if Wei Dongqiang left heartlessly, Lin Bing had never cried like this. He asked with concern: "What's wrong? What happened? It's such a big thing. , I'll carry it for you." Xu Si also stood up with concern and listened to the voice coming from the other end of the phone.
Lin Bing kept crying and could not speak. After a while, Ma Li took the phone and told Zhang Ke the whole story: "Wei Dongqiang committed suicide by jumping off the building!"
"" Zhang Ke held the phone and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Wei Dongqiang is just a little person. Perhaps he couldn't bear the huge psychological gap and chose to jump off the building. Thinking about his previous life, he was just a struggling little person.
Zhang Ke held the phone in his hand for a long time, unable to say a word of comfort.
