Winner Takes It All, Resurrection 2009

Chapter 694: Unexpected but Reasonable

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Li Zehua was still holding a video conference, explaining to major investors and the core management of the group why he wanted to terminate the cooperation with Huaban and what specific measures he wanted to take.

What goals are to be achieved, how much real benefits can be gained, and how many potential risks can be avoided in the future? It also emphasized the extraordinary significance of the successful intelligent manufacturing strategy of Southeast University in the next fifteen years.

Only then did we basically convince the investors and gain the unanimous support of management.

Because Huaban is not a small company, the scale of cooperation between the two parties is too large and the impact is too profound. Even if he has absolute controlling rights in Qingyun Group, he must unite all available resources.

Only after all the worries were cleared away could he let go and exert all his strength; fortunately, he had a consistent precedent of success. After explaining the great positive significance of taking down the petals for the intelligent manufacturing strategy, everyone clearly expressed their support.

It is just an implicit and well-intentioned reminder against overly radical measures. After all, the other party is no pushover and has a huge number of supporters in the country. If things get out of control, it is likely to cause a head-on collision between the two huge groups.

Even if Qingyun wins by then, it will be a pyrrhic victory, and it may even leave an unacceptable negative impact on the upper echelons. If it is found to have abused its market dominance and is targeted, the losses will be huge.

Li Zehua said that he asked everyone to come forward to help with the work and control the impact within the business field as much as possible. At the same time, they should work together to put pressure on Huaban and force it to compromise as soon as possible.

“Everyone, we must understand one thing. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for the group. The reason why I played a showdown with Huaban from the beginning was to get ahead of all parties in reacting.

By launching a short assault, the petals will be forced to exceed the pressure limit they can withstand in a hurry and be crushed in an instant. Then the rest of the things will be easy to deal with.

The core demand is to use force to promote peace and force them to accept Qingyun's investment. Even if Huaban survives the first stage, there will be a lot of backup plans waiting for it.

Even if the worst happens, the group can reach a temporary reconciliation with Huaban by introducing upper-level forces to intervene. At worst, the two companies can jointly implement the smart manufacturing upgrade plan.

When faced with a competitor that you cannot fundamentally defeat, you can either bring it under control or limit it from the beginning.

Once the smart manufacturing plan is implemented, the competition between us and Huaban will inevitably be greater than cooperation. Whether we turn against each other one day earlier or later, the difference will not be that big..."

When doing anything, as long as you grasp the core contradiction, the rest will be relatively simple, starting from determining who the enemy is, how to restrict it, what goals to achieve, how to win, and how much benefit can be gained.

What to do in case of an accident and how to end the situation are all considered in advance. After evaluating the investment and returns and comprehensively considering the risks, the allies feel that it is profitable and has a great chance of success.

Even if the plan fails, the profits are still guaranteed, and the worst result is within an acceptable range. People will naturally understand and be willing to contribute manpower and money to the common cause and add bricks and tiles.

Li Zehua was very satisfied with the statements made by all parties. Just as he was about to strike while the iron was hot and take out his deadly trump card against Hua Hua, Liu Ziliang knocked on the door and came in, reporting in a low voice: "Sir, Mr. Zhang from Jinhai has arrived."

"Isn't Mr. Zhang in Yanjing? Why did he come back suddenly? And why did he come to visit in person so late at night?"

Li Zehua quickly pondered in his mind, and after a while, he said to everyone in the video: "President Gu will continue to preside over the meeting. Discuss an executable plan according to the agreed framework and hand it over to me. It must be quick."

Then he quickly got up and went downstairs. While walking a few steps, he took the time to send a quick text message to Ye Jingming, asking him to call him to help.

There is no other reason, because Mr. Zhang once stayed in eastern Guangdong for a long time, especially in Shenzhen. Huaban grew rapidly under his leadership at that time, and the two sides have a deep affection for each other.

It was so late, and at a critical moment when 15 tons of copper had not been processed. Mr. Zhang must have come to the door in person with great sincerity to reconcile, but Huaban was too important to Qingyun, and he could not let it go.

"The smart manufacturing strategy can basically be determined in the future. It will be led by General Manager Zhang and General Manager Wang, with General Manager Yu cooperating to solve problems. The big boss will be in charge and he will be in charge personally. The level of attention is unprecedented.

When Mr. Zhang contacted me by phone before, he also expressed his support for Qingyun as the specific executor. In addition to the relationship with the Ye family in Meizhuang, our interests should be tied together. But now because of the petals~
No, I can't go to see him right away. I must find a way to let the Ye family come forward to communicate first. The more critical the moment, the more I cannot easily express my opinion.

He came with great sincerity, and if he leaves without great gains, it will certainly offend him and inevitably affect the basis for continued cooperation in the future."

Thinking of this, Li Zehua stopped and walked towards his room resolutely. At the same time, he said to Liu Ziliang: "Think of a way to buy two minutes, go."

Liu Ziliang was stunned and stammered, "That person, me."

Liu Ziliang, who is Li Zehua's senior administrative assistant and also serves as the director of the Qingyun Group's chairman's office, follows Li Zehua around and is called "Xiao Liu Xiao Liu". If you don't know, you might think he is just a bag-carrying boy.

But in fact, as the personal butler of the head of the trillion-dollar capital group, who would dare to call him Xiao Liu after he walked out of that door?
Even ordinary billionaires or trillionaires have to praise him by calling him Director Liu.

The problem is that Mr. Zhang who is waiting in the living room is too important. Even if he is accompanied by a secretary carrying a bag, Liu Ziliang would not dare to be arrogant at all. How could he ask him to delay?

But the chairman ordered that we have to hold it up even if the sky falls.

Without caring about what his men did, Li Zehua quickly took off the clothes he was wearing for formal occasions, and at the same time dialed the numbers of Lin Qingyi and Wu Qingyu.

He had originally summoned the two girls to relax him after a busy day. But judging from the situation, tonight might be in trouble. If something goes wrong, it could lead to misunderstandings and things could get really bad.

"It's better to leave a joke of lusting after beauty than to have a direct conflict. Lao Ye, my future happy life depends on you, please don't let me down."

Having made up his mind, Mr. Li rushed into the room as quickly as possible, and then pounced on Lin Qingyi under her shocked gaze.
Mr. Zhang sat in the living room for a while, and then he heard the sound of a door opening on the second floor of the villa manor, followed by hurried footsteps. However, after waiting for a long time, no one came down.

He does not get angry or push.

Soon after, he heard the sound of a door opening, and some other sounds accidentally leaked out, but he did not ask any questions and kept smiling.

They didn't even care about Liu Ziliang's poor explanation, because when they reached the highest level, it was difficult to be moved by external things, and they always knew what they wanted in their hearts.

Li Zehua's reaction was also within his expectations. He was not in Yanjing today, but came to Jinhai to deal with the follow-up matters of 15 tons and was just about to rest in the evening.

Mr. Wang from Pengcheng and Mr. Ren from Guangdong East hurried to visit him and reported to him the emergency situation of Qingyun's sudden and ruthless turn against him. He did not express his opinion at that time.

As one of the very few people who knows all the inside information, Mr. Zhang is happy to see the Qingyun petals compete together from an emotional point of view and will not tolerate any luck.

Even if you fully support Qingyun, it may not necessarily lead to success. If you add an internal rival competing for resources, you will inevitably fall into internal friction and the chance of success will be even lower.

But he hadn't figured out how to coordinate the relationship between Qingyun and Huaban so that the two could work together, and the conflict broke out.

Qing Yun's methods were so fierce and merciless that they were beyond his expectations. However, the more so, the more optimistic he was about Qing Yun's strategy for private enterprises related to intelligent manufacturing.

Only by leaving no room for the enemy and fighting forward desperately can we fight for a way to survive. Any leniency and intention to coexist will only invite disaster and leave hidden dangers.

But although they are optimistic, Qingyun and Huaban should not get too angry and let outsiders take advantage of them. It is a good opportunity to exchange views on the occasion of coordinating the 15 tons of copper.

The most important thing at the moment is to try to come up with a proper solution and quickly calm the situation and disputes.

So he acted very tolerant. In front of Liu Ziliang, he even took the phone from his secretary before it rang and placed it in front of him, as if he was sure that someone would call him soon to test the waters.

Liu Ziliang didn't dare to make a sound the whole time, just waiting quietly until the expected phone call broke the silence.

Mr. Zhang waited for a while before answering the phone. He smiled and said, "Jingming, you can't sleep either?"

Ye Jingming almost cursed Li to death in his heart. What a joke! He left a big shot downstairs while he was enjoying himself upstairs. What a weird thing!

But there was no other way. Qingyun represented the core interests of Nandian Energy's future. He had to clean up the mess, and he was the only one qualified to mediate...

"You today~"

Lin Qingyi felt very strange. She looked at Wu Qingyu who was stunned and passively enduring it, and then looked at the corridor with the open door, although she knew that no one dared to try to peek.

But I still felt weird, as if something was wrong.

Although Li Zehua was working hard, he never forgot to lean close to her ear and whisper something.

In an instant, Lin Qingyi was shocked so much that her face turned pale. She fell on the pillow, stunned and said, "You, you." She couldn't even utter a single extra word.

Li Zehua continued to work hard and chuckled, "Don't worry, someone is helping me to mediate. It won't be too late to show up when the phone rings.

Alas, doing things is difficult, and being a human being is even more difficult. If I had a choice, would I be willing to cause such a ridiculous thing?
If we go straight down, what if something we say is wrong and causes a strategic misjudgment? By then, is the group really prepared to fight a protracted war?"

This is also the reason why the chairman of a large group lets his subordinates discuss the specific content after setting the framework, because it is easy for a king to disagree on the specific implementation details.

What should I do if I am forced to save face and affected by the prevailing environment and wind direction and find myself unable to back down?
At this time, there must be a middleman of sufficient weight to come forward, find out the true thoughts of both parties, and then work to reconcile common interests, abandon the controversial parts, and allow the two parties to reach an agreement in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

"But that person's identity~"

Lin Qingyi was shocked by his audacity and didn't know how to respond. Even when her body was suspended in the air, she still didn't react and could only passively bear everything.
Fortunately, the ringing of the phone quickly rescued her. Li Zehua tied his pajamas casually, took the phone and went out, and pinched her cheek, "You guys go to sleep first, just leave the door open for me."

At that moment, looking at his back, Lin Qingyi and Wu Qingyu were instantly stunned~
He put on his coat and didn't bother to fix his appearance. He answered the phone and asked, "Are you done?"

Ye Jingming said unhappily: “There is no big problem, you can handle the small problems yourself.”

"That's fine."

Li Zehua felt relieved, and quickly ran into the bathroom, washed himself quickly, then hurried downstairs in wet slippers.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm so sorry. I was just taking a shower and didn't know you were coming. I'm so sorry for not welcoming you. I'm sorry, it's my fault."

As soon as Li Zehua went up, he immediately held Mr. Zhang's hand tightly, with an expression of shame, guilt, and panic on his face, and he looked so sincere.

Mr. Zhang knew the nature of this thing and didn't care at all. After asking him to sit down, he said, "I came here without saying hello today, which has caused a lot of inconvenience to Mr. Li."

Feeling the smile in Mr. Zhang's eyes, Li Zehua felt relieved. After exchanging some polite words with him, he gradually turned the topic to recent events.

Mr. Zhang didn't waste any words and got straight to the point: "We have read the 4.0-year intelligent manufacturing plan and the original Hans Intelligent Industry plan you brought back, and we are shocked!

It is no exaggeration to say that if all the plans can be successfully implemented, by 2018, Tokyo will basically become the only economy in the world with the most complete and strongest comprehensive manufacturing industry.

By 2023, Dongda's manufacturing industry will have the super power to challenge all economies in the world.

By 2028, the whole world will succumb to the terrifying power of the University of Tokyo.

The real industrial background and detailed data of private enterprises submitted by Qingyun have enabled the upper echelons to have a clear mind and strong power in their hands, and the rudder of industrial upgrading is in their own hands.

If everyone works together, the potential that will be unleashed will surely astonish the whole world in the future..."

Because Qingyun suddenly appeared, it eliminated a large group of people who were originally dragging its feet, integrated industry resources to avoid internal friction, and opened up a vast external consumer market, bringing back more excess profits.

Therefore, the current industrial upgrading strategy of the University of Tokyo has basically achieved initial success. Although its comprehensive strength is not comparable to that of 17/18, it has at least caught up with the progress of two or three years.

This is the reason why Li Zehua dared to come up with the 15-year plan for intelligent manufacturing before Hans did. He rushed to make in-depth arrangements. If he is given another five years, Southeast Asia will be under his control.

The layout of South America, Africa and West Asia has been initially completed. The newly added consumer market will in turn stimulate the East University and further support the complete economic take-off. At that time, all industries and sectors will usher in prosperity.

In addition, the internal economic circulation circle that had not been perfected in the previous life was completed. He couldn't even imagine how powerful the East China University of Technology in the 2018 time and space would be.

As long as he persists in detonating the hidden mine between Hans and the big cat and ties the hands and feet of the big cat Ou Meng, then all markets except America, Chicken Bangzi and Hans Gaul will be under his control.

All of them let Dongda Capital run wild and have no rivals wherever it goes!
Even if America reacts completely by then, what can it do? The conflict between its traditional capital and Squid Capital is so huge that it is impossible for them to work together to deal with Dongda Capital?
A good blacksmith must have strong tools himself. As long as Tokyo University sticks to its plan, those who have weakened themselves and tried to deceive themselves will be exposed.

Even in the process of communicating with the upper echelons, Li Zehua made a shocking statement and revealed a secret that everyone in later generations knew, that is, America, the chicken with the feet basin, beautifies data on a large scale.

For example, he dared to guarantee that by sending a few weather balloons to an altitude of 22 meters over the United States, the lie about the ceiling of the F- would be exposed. There are many similar examples.

Everyone was infected by his confident words, but in the end no one sent the balloon over. The main reason was that they were afraid of alerting the enemy. What if the enemy learned from his mistakes and started to catch up?
It would be better to pretend not to know and verify it quietly under the premise of ensuring safety. If the key power it demonstrates is really vulnerable, it seems that a new era is about to come.

Everyone was deeply moved, full of confidence, and ready to roll up their sleeves and do a great job...

Mr. Zhang first highly praised Qingyun's contribution, but then changed the subject and did not directly mention the matter of Huaban asking for help.

Instead, he started talking about the 15 tons of copper. His words of apology were ignored by Li Zehua, who burst into tears of gratitude and said, "Mr. Zhang, thank you for taking care of Qingyun.

We have seen it with our own eyes and have kept it in our hearts. We have always wanted to have a chance to repay you and Jinhai. It just so happens that you have come to our house today, which has brought glory to our humble home. It is better to do it today than to wait for another day..."

As he spoke, he laid out the investments in Jinhai Chemical Energy, mid- and low-end semiconductor chips, and other investment packages that he had agreed with the big boss.

Mr. Zhang nodded with satisfaction to show his approval. Regardless of whether he was in Jinhai's position or not, economic development was an important achievement. There was no private transfer, and he took it openly.

So he threw out a heavyweight chip and said, "Let's follow the clues. In the process of searching for 15 tons of copper, we successfully uncovered several malicious hoardings, with a total of more than 27 tons..."

Facts have proved that as long as you are determined to investigate, such a big matter as 15 tons of copper will inevitably leave clues. From the time the talks were completed to now, in just a few days, not only have all the information been recovered.

In addition, there were 12 tons more. After all, those people tried their best to hoard copper, so it was impossible for them to only target Qingyun. The National Reserve Bureau, which has a huge reserve of finished copper, is also one of the targets.

The people below found a lot of traces while hunting rabbits in the grass, and seized them all in the name of investigating shady transactions in the bonded area. Now, General Manager Zhang has personally come forward to return them as a gift.

There was no reason for Li Zehua to refuse, but he was wondering in his heart how to respond to such an expensive gift.

Although copper has to be purchased at the market price, everyone knows the problem at the moment. Even if you have money you may not be able to buy it. The situation is almost a mess and I don't know how many people have died as a result.

However, European capital has deep roots in the local area and a complex network of relationships. Often, when a few core figures of an endorsement group they support are eliminated, there will be immediate replacements.

Although Qingyun has money and people, the problem is that its layout is not deep enough. It is no problem to hastily deal with a few short-sighted people, but if it wants to uproot it, it currently lacks the necessary means to deploy force.

Although Lu Wangda brought back two or three hundred core forces, the existing rumbling formation was of little use. A new formation needed to be formed from scratch, and it would be difficult to play a big role without two or three years.

Overseas expansion cannot be rushed and can only be done slowly.

Li Zehua pinched his nose and admitted it, then said: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Zhang, with this batch of key chips, plus the original layout, we can launch a general attack on the bulls as soon as the market opens tomorrow.

Although I am not talented, I will stick to my word. All the profits earned from copper futures will be invested in the construction of the Bohai Economic Zone as originally planned. This can be regarded as Qingyun's contribution to the overall economic development..."

If you don't take the money and don't take credit for it, you will owe fewer favors, and you will have the confidence to refuse to go easy on the petals later.

Mr. Zhang had anticipated this move, but he did not expect Mr. Li to be so straightforward. He just gave up the profits of hundreds of billions of dollars (it was not a loss, as investing in the manufacturing industry would pay back the money very slowly).

But the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, so he could only adjust his attitude and slowly bring up the topic of the misunderstanding between Qingyun and Huaban.

"Misunderstand?"

Li Zehua smiled and said, "Boss Zhang, I shouldn't allow others to snore beside my bed. It may not be appropriate for me to say this, but the total number of resources is limited.

Either Qingyun eats it, or Huaban eats it. There are many variables involved. If all the family eat together, they may not be full. If both families eat together, they will both become malnourished and will not be able to show their talents to the sea in the future. What should we do?"

Mr. Zhang was silent after hearing this, and was slow to speak...
