Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 193 Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Each Showing Their Supernatural Powers (Two in One)

The top announcement of Guahao.com attracted investors to gather at Hang Lung 23, so the company's defense battle that came out was followed by reports on the portal website.

Unexpectedly, there are several reports that are vaguely inclined to Guahao.com and discuss Sina's affairs together.

In June, Wang Zhidong, who founded Sina and single-handedly pushed it to go public in the United States, was suddenly attacked. He was dismissed from all positions on the board of directors in a daze, and was kicked out.

This has caused a strong shock in the industry. Wang Zhidong is an Internet godfather who is collectively known as the "Three Musketeers of the Internet" together with Sohu Zhang Chaoyang and Netease Ding Lei. Even his end like this makes many company management feel sad.

The lingering sound lingers, and the words are still ringing in my ears. After only four months, such a scene reappears on Guahao.com, which has just fought a fierce subsidy war in the summer, and it has to make people feel sympathetic and even indignant.

Fang Zhuo in the investment circle is not a human being, but some executives in the corporate circle regard Fang Zhuo, who has successfully defended his management rights, as a hero.

For a while, many companies that have received investment are quietly examining their own equity structures, and some university teachers who are concerned about current affairs put these two cases of failure and failure in their professional classes for passionate discussions with students.

Which is right and wrong?

Why did Wang Zhidong and Fang Zhuo have different endings?

How do you view the role of investors in enterprise development?

At this point of time in the fourth quarter of 2001, the relationship between venture capital and enterprises, along with two turbulent battles, will surely make more ignorant company teams consider equity settings in the next few years, and it will also be domestic venture capital. A remarkable stroke in the history of development.

However, while the outside world was still trying to clarify the context of the battle between Guahao.com and the VCs, Fang Zhuo had to continue fighting with the VCs after just one night of rest.

Fortunately, he is fully prepared. The amount of the second round of financing is not small. Even if it is divided into eight companies, it is not something that can be passed lightly, and it cannot be eaten up so easily.

If the shareholders' meeting on the 8th was to confirm from a legal point of view whether Guhao.com's surname was "Fang" or "Feng", then the day of the 9th was to show Fang Zhuo the ability of venture capital from the whole work.

Only at 7 o'clock in the morning, when Fang Zhuo arrived at the company, he saw five senior financial officers sent by 3i Group who were already waiting.

And, they bring the stamped written audit request letter.

3i Group owns 2% of the shares of Guahao.com, and enjoys the rights stipulated in Article 30 of the "Company Law" that "shareholders have the right to consult and copy the company's articles of association, minutes of shareholders' meetings, resolutions of board meetings, resolutions of board of supervisors meetings, and financial accounting reports".

But shareholders can check accounts, but they can't check accounts anytime and anywhere.

Fang Zhuo directly rejected the aggressive five financial managers, and only quoted a sentence that "the company may refuse to provide inspection, and shall reply to the shareholders in writing and explain the reasons within 15 days from the date of the shareholder's written request", and asked them to wait for the registered website to respond within 3 days. Written reason for refusal issued by [-]i Group.

The five people looked at each other and left.

Mainly, they didn't expect to see a copy of "Company Law" in the office of the young president...

Books like "Laozi", "The Analects of Confucius", "The Complete Biography of Konosuke Matsushita", "Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, and Practice" are kept in the office of a general boss. Who is free to sit in the office and study the law...

The law is strict and cannot be violated.

3i Group has the right to audit the accounts, so it has to admit that the chairman has the right to refuse.

"Mr. Fang, don't you still have the "Criminal Law" in your office?"

Before leaving, a treasurer made a resentful sarcasm.

Fang Zhuo smiled without saying a word, and sent off 3i people politely.

However, it didn't take long for Guahao.com to welcome two guests from Economic Investigation. The two were not able to sit still, and people from the tax bureau also arrived.

Fang Zhuo was a little dumbfounded. The tax bureau couldn't refuse to check the accounts, but the name of his shareholder's report was quite self-deprecating.

"Our accounts are relatively simple, and you can check them as much as you want."

He said so to the tax.

As for the two members of the economic investigation, I don’t know which company’s venture capital relationship invited them, and their attitudes are relatively blunt, but they have to bring people back to assist in the investigation before they come up, but the words of “knowing the situation” also made all the employees of the company nervous Get restless.

This represents public rights.

Fortunately, after Fang Zhuo took out the trophy in the office, the other party was more polite.

After he called Wang Fengyi again, after 5 minutes, the two guests finished the call, and there was nothing extra to know, and they left the 23rd floor of Hang Lung.

After such tossing, he was able to eat two bites at noon, and by the way to appease the emotions of the employees, Fang Zhuo heard the report from the administrative assistant Yuan Zhen in a hurry.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, the company's car has been zoned out!"

"The front, back, left, and right sides are all scratched!"

"The wheels are locked too!"

Fang Zhuo sighed. Next time, if there is a next time, I will definitely choose a well-known venture capital institution like IDG. Look at Xiong Xiaoge, he will definitely not be able to do such a thing, he is too unmannered.

"Call the police and see what I do. It's fine. Anyway, the company only has that car, and I don't have the guts to put a bomb in it."

Yuan Zhen went down with a distressed face. She often drove the Audi to pick up and drop off the boss, and usually kept a towel to wipe the inside and outside clean. Now it seemed that she had scratched her own face instead of the car.

While eating, Fang Zhuo wondered which company's behavior style this is. The shareholder's audit is to show his identity from 3i Group. The tax bureau may still be 3i, or it may be Legend Investment. As for the economic investigation...

Maybe it's Shenzhen Venture Capital. This company also has an administrative background, so it's very convenient to find a relationship in Shanghai.

This rowing car, I really can't think of who it is, the Zhou Zisen from Dachen Venture Capital yesterday looks quite personable, so it shouldn't be like this.

Oh yes, Sequoia's Liao Yong was very angry with himself, maybe it was him.

Fang Zhuo thought in this way, silently waiting for the next move of his good shareholders.

However, after the economic investigation left, the afternoon suddenly calmed down. The employees were still anxious, but they were more worried about the company and their own future.

Even the mentally retarded employees consciously or unintentionally read the analysis of the incident on various portal websites and online media.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Zhuo was still alone in the president's office, when the cell phone on the table rang suddenly.

Fang Zhuo let out a "huh" and saw that it was Liu Yangyang from the Second Division of Lin'an Secret Service.

"Why did Sister Yang think of making a phone call? Could it be that Lin'an has started to take inventory of this year's advanced units again?"

Fang Zhuo called the other party like this, and he really felt that things were different from people. There was no one in Lin'an. Fortunately, the business of Guahao.com was not affected, and the hospital has been very stable.

"Mr. Fang." Liu Yangyang's voice was a little low, and he said something that surprised Fang Zhuo, "Is there any shortage of people on your registration network?"

"Sister Yang, uh, what's going on? Well, Guahao.com, Guahao.com, you must not have paid attention to our company's news recently." Fang Zhuo pondered, and immediately thought of Judy, who had lost power. Before, he was more used to using willow Do things in a hurry.

Liu Yangyang said calmly: "There's nothing wrong with it. I was slapped in the face in public. I don't want to hang around here and beg for food. I don't know if Mr. Fang has a suitable job here."

Fang Zhuo was even more surprised. Was the handling of the administrative struggle so rough?

Liu Yangyang added: "I've heard about the situation of Guahao.com, but I believe in Mr. Fang's ability."

Fang Zhuo's thoughts turned. Since this person knows about the situation of Guahao.com, then... oh, I see. Leaving the iron rice bowl may not be the idea today.

Now the registration network does not seem to be so hot, but it is embarrassing to call to find a way out.

"Sister Yang is coming, of course I welcome you. Guahao.com will definitely make you shine, but I did encounter some things recently." Fang Zhuo said in a deep voice, "I won't go on if it's someone else, but Yang Sister, I must say a few more words."

"Guahao.com is currently facing a downturn due to some policy factors. I'm not rejecting you, but I think you really want to think clearly."

"If you don't want to be in the second secret department, I also know good friends here in Shencheng, and I can help arrange work."

Fang Zhuo said sincerely.

"I read your announcement, and the policy hasn't come down yet, but Guahao.com must adjust its work because of the policy, right?" Liu Yangyang analyzed, "We must also take policy factors into consideration, right? There are so many hospitals and even places to deal with, so there is such a demand?"

She continued: "I think I have room to play in these matters, Mr. Fang, what do you think?"

Fang Zhuo was suddenly slapped by "you", and couldn't help laughing: "Then, on behalf of Guahao.com, I would like to welcome Ms. Liu Yangyang to join at any time. This is a timely gift."

"Thank you Mr. Fang, my heart is relieved." Liu Yangyang's tone was obviously lighter, "Then I will go to Shencheng to thank Mr. Fang face to face in the next two days, understand the company's situation, and face the next business adjustment together .”

"Okay, there is the company's address at the bottom of the website. Sister Yang will come here directly. There are always people here. If you can't find it, you can just call me."

call ended.

Fang Zhuo reflected on this matter, hesitantly felt that there was no need to say hello to Judy, this little brother who couldn't cover him before, speaking of it would only add to the troubles, and he would just mention it casually when he had the opportunity to visit Lin'an.

Liu Yangyang must be capable, especially, she knows how to deal with the administration, which is exactly what Guahao.com lacks, and it is considered suitable.

In the evening, just when Fang Zhuo thought that the day would end like this, another person broke into the CEO's office again, and a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes violently opened the door with a white plastic bucket.

"Boss Fang, I didn't stop you." The front desk ran several times today, and I got used to it.

"Well, go out and close the door." Fang Zhuo looked at the middle-aged man with an agitated expression calmly, waved his hand at the front desk, and then said, "Brother, don't get excited, just talk about it if you have something to say."

Seeing the door of the office being closed, the middle-aged man unscrewed the lid of the plastic bucket without saying a word and poured it on his head. The pungent gasoline smell quickly permeated the air.

Fang Zhuo didn't say a word during this process, just watching the man's movements.

The middle-aged man was startled when he saw this, it was completely different from what he expected!Shouldn't the other party panic immediately?

With a cruel heart, he gritted his teeth and said, "Return the money, withdraw the capital, Fang Zhuo, if you don't withdraw the capital today, we will die together!"

"Then you should also clarify which company you belong to? There are many people who want to withdraw their capital." Fang Zhuo said calmly. He smelled a hint of gasoline when this person came in, and he guessed the situation when he looked at the white plastic bucket. up.

However, there is a difference between a person who comes in with a bucket and pours oil, and a person who waits for the front desk to close before pouring oil.

We're all going to die together, is there still such a patient and polite one-on-one?
"I'm Kong Yu, the project manager of 3i!" The middle-aged man really became emotional, "I have guaranteed the project of your registration network in the company! Now if you don't withdraw the capital, the company will reassign me! "

"Mr. Fang, please, withdraw the capital! All my net worth just..."

Fang Zhuo interrupted: "The 3i Group is really not a joke, how can there be such a thing."

Kong Yu was interrupted for a moment, suffocated, and insisted on finishing: "Mr. Fang, I just bought a house with all my net worth, and I have to pay back the money every month! I finally came from the countryside to the city, please !"

"If you don't withdraw the capital this month, I won't be able to pay back the money in the bank next month. My whole family pooled their money to buy my house!!"

He thought about the house he just bought, the reprimand from the vice president, and the promise he had made to the national Internet innovation company at the company meeting, and he felt his heart bleed!

"You bought a house in Shencheng? You have a good eye, which district?" Fang Zhuo praised Kong Yu as he watched the gasoline dripping from Kong Yu's hair.

"I, I..." Kong Yu didn't know for a moment whether he should put on a grim expression, but he replied, "I bought it in Jing'an District."

Fang Zhuo was surprised and said: "Very good, Jing'an District is very good. I came back to Lin'an a while ago and recommended a friend to buy a house in Jing'an."

Kong Yu looked a little weird, and couldn't help raising the white plastic bucket in his hand, as if wanting to increase some deterrence.

"Manager Kong, right? You sit first." Fang Zhuo said peacefully, "I know your problem and your appeal. In fact, 3i has done a very unkind thing about this matter, but I believe that as long as the policy Tell it clearly, and it will understand the situation we all encounter."

Kong Yu sneered and began to fumble in his pocket. He wanted to use a lighter as a further deterrent, which was dropped by Vice President Lin on his desk.

"Since you can use all your wealth to buy a house in Jing'an District of Shanghai at this time, I believe you are a smart person. Your request is to let the company divest, but what does it have to do with you personally?" Fang Zhuo stated.

He said with a smile: "You can come to the office so unscrupulously, how about this..."

"If you change jobs and come to our registered website, the salary and benefits will remain the same, and all problems will be solved easily. You don't have to endure irregular companies that randomly transfer jobs. You can kill two birds with one stone."

Kong Yu's white plastic bucket fell to the ground in shock. No matter how he imagined it today, he would never have heard such a suggestion: "You, I... er, that, you, no, I..."

He suddenly felt that his bleeding heart had been tamed. Boss Fang is not so god-hate and ghost-hate.
