1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 496 The Second Spoils Division Meeting (2)

Mengyin, Duozhuang Town, Ximenglianggu Village.

After listening to the staff's report, Tugou, who was evaluating the potential of the local chestnut industry chain, looked at Zhuomali beside him in surprise.

"Eh?"

"You mean, I can just go ahead and do it, and incubate a few more small industrial chains in the grassroots rural areas of Mengyin under the name of Momo Baishou Direct Supply and Direct Investment?"

Tugou looked incredulous: "But, Momo Baishou's expansion budget for next year is only 1800 million. After deducting the costs of rent, renovation, labor, logistics, warehouse, and procurement, there is not much money left. Where does the budget come from to incubate so many small industrial chains?"

Although thanks to a certain Peach, the rent, water, electricity and other expenses of the newly added outlets were given a very cost-effective price, but Momo Baishou has built a three-level distribution chain of county-township-village. The cost of cold chain transit and transportation alone is an extremely large and continuous expense.

Zhuo Mali patted the chestnut tree next to her that was thicker than her waist, and smiled meaningfully: "Sister Lu, you made a mistake. These small industrial chains are not incubated in the name of Momo Baishou, but in the name of Qingfeng Food."

As he spoke, he looked at the rows of snow-covered houses in the valley from afar and shrugged his shoulders: "Of course, you can also use the name of the Fifth Farm, or the Sixth Chicken Breeding Institute, or even the Xi Xiangfeng Cannery... As long as you are willing, you can choose any of Mr. Yang's peripheral enterprises;"

"Let alone a dozen small industrial chains, even if you want to incubate dozens, it won't be a problem as long as the funding budget is not too exaggerated."

Huh? ?
Tugou looked at the charming big sister in front of her in a naive way. If her breathing had not been normal, she would have almost thought that she had climbed the mountain too fast and her brain was deprived of oxygen.

Blinking her eyes, Lu Yingying remembered that the other party had helped her with a lot of equity design some time ago, so she asked tentatively: "Minister Zhuo, what do you mean by don't be too exaggerated in the budget?"

Zhuo Mali looked at her with a smile, a hint of jealousy or envy flashing in her eyes: "Don't be too exaggerated means... as long as it doesn't exceed 2.47 million, you can invest as much as you want... When the budget surplus of Qingfeng Food is used up, use the money from Xi Xiangfeng Cannery, and when the budget surplus of Xi Xiangfeng is used up, use the money from Laoliu Chicken Breeding Institute... Do you understand?"

hiss~!

Tugou sucked in a breath of cold air: "2.47 million!? Minister Zhuo, are you kidding me? Where will the budget for next year come from? Both Qingfeng Food and Laoliu Chicken Breeding Institute will enter a stage of rapid expansion next year. Their own funds are already tight. Where will they get so much spare money to waste on me?"

As Momo Baizha opened up to national investment, Qingfeng Food, Laoliu Chicken Breeding Institute, the 817 broiler farm with the Fifth Farm as the core, and various supporting special feeds, cold chain transportation companies, and decoration companies have all entered a period of rapid expansion... Momo Baizha adopts the supply chain model of "unified standards, local breeding, local processing, and local distribution". The products and services of these upstream and downstream companies will flourish all over the country with the influx of new franchisees.

To be honest, if Yang Mo hadn't said that these companies would not be allowed to set up subsidiaries through this project to increase capital and expand shares, Liu Xianfu and Diao Sigui, who were unable to sleep well due to the huge expenditures, would have wanted to absorb a large amount of social capital long ago.

Even the expansion work of core projects such as Momo Baizha and 817 broiler breeding has been extremely tight in budget. Where do you get so much money to invest and spend?
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Mali laughed and said, "If we only look at the year-end report, then it is impossible for us to have so much money to give you, the eldest sister of the Lu family, to incubate a small industrial chain at the grassroots level in the countryside."

"But..."

"The accounts are the accounts, the reality is the reality;"

"What if Qingfeng Food suddenly expands its corporate development capital pool by the end of this year on the pretext of national expansion to ensure the company's strategic intentions for next year?"

“What if these companies keep 80% of the funds that should have been set aside for dividends in the fund pool?”

“What if nearly 30% of the funds in these fund pools are redundant funds?”

Before he could finish his words, Tugou screamed, "This is impossible! I don't know the situation of the Laoliu Chicken Breeding Center and the Fifth Farm, but I have seen Qingfeng Food's business plan and budget for next year. How could there be so much redundant funds?"

Zhuomali sighed and shook her head: "Why is it impossible?"

"Don't you realize that Qingfeng Food, Laoliu Chicken Breeding Institute, the Fifth Farm, and the dozen or so units incorporated into the 817 broiler breeding project, and even the Xixiangfeng Canning Factory, have in fact formed the entire industry chain of 817 broiler chickens?"

"In other words, these units are essentially all related business units!"

Tugou opened his mouth wide: "Minister Zhuo, what do you mean...?"

Zhuo Mali nodded: "That's right. For a closed-loop business model like this, as long as Mr. Yang is willing, he can immediately reduce the actual production and operation costs by a large margin through tangible or intangible internal collaboration models."

"So, even though the budget plans made by various units are well-reasoned and even the most professional accountants cannot find any fault with them, in fact, we only need to adopt the form of cross-holding of project companies + material replacement + re-merger of new project shares + re-provision of accounts receivable, and these redundant funds can be moved out openly when needed!"

hiss~
There was another cold gasp, and Tugou, who had once again witnessed the dangers of society, swallowed hard: "Is it so easy... to free up 2.47 million?"

After saying that, he looked at Zhuo Mali with an unacceptable expression: "Could there be something fishy about the profits of our Qingfeng Food in previous years?"

Zhuo Mali naturally knew what she meant and laughed, "How could there be so many tricks? Besides, the financial statements of Qingfeng Foods have to be submitted to General Manager Yang for review every year. General Manager Liu and his team are so bold as to tamper with this!"

As he spoke, he sighed with emotion: "In fact, if you say that there is no trick in the profit surplus of Qingfeng Food in previous years, that is not entirely true... At least your profit surplus last year should have obviously exceeded the number in the account book, but this part of the surplus was transferred to the accounts receivable of other upstream and downstream brother companies by Mr. Yang in a way of "hiding wealth for the people", so you can't say that you are cooking the books."

After a pause, Zhuo Mali tilted her head and looked at Tugou who was standing still. "Of course, even if Mr. Yang adopts the method of hiding wealth among the closed-loop enterprises in the entire industrial chain, there won't be that much redundant funds available next year... But if there are some year-end dividends that should have been raised by the drilling company, as well as additional share capital, it won't be difficult to raise 2.47 million."

Tugou was completely dumbfounded: "Additional share capital? Minister Zhuo, are you kidding me?"

Zhuo Mali shrugged: "How can I joke with you, a girl from the Lu family!"

"Take the business plan submitted by Qingfeng Foods for example... Didn't you notice that it mentioned that in April next year, in new markets such as Wuhan, Chengdu, Chongqing, and Xiangtan, we would establish a website-based cold chain storage cluster by attracting social capital to ensure that the loss rate of chicken raw materials for chicken chops is effectively reduced?"

Tugou nodded: "I remember there was such a plan. Both the cold chain truck and the cold storage are too expensive. Qingfeng Foods alone cannot afford so much cost. Therefore, attracting and utilizing social capital is an inevitable means."

Zhuo Mali laughed: "Right, this is a very reasonable proposal, and it is also a legitimate demand that no one can avoid. Even your old Mr. Wang can't find any reason to reject this plan."

Tugou nodded: "Yeah."

Seeing this, Zhuo Mali's expression became a little strange: "If you want to attract social capital, then increasing capital and expanding shares is obviously a normal method... Qingfeng Food is not a state-owned enterprise. Increasing capital and expanding shares only requires approval from the shareholders' meeting, and does not require approval from the state-owned assets department."

Tugou thought about it and nodded again: "Although the drilling company has a veto power, the department that Qingfeng Food is affiliated with is Mo Mo Bai Tou, and the financing needs are reasonable. Director Zhang should not block it at the shareholders' meeting."

Zhuo Mali hummed softly: "Logically speaking, with the current scale of Momo Baizha, the biggest beneficiary of such a capital increase and share expansion should be the drilling company with the priority subscription right. But unfortunately, the drilling company is also very short of funds now, and it is absolutely unable to invest so much money;"

“So, a dilemma was placed before them;”

"Either, we can not participate in the second round of capital increase and give all this fat meat to other shareholders and new social capital, but this is likely to cause the drilling company's shares to fall below 34%... You have to know that building so many cold storages in so many cities requires a huge amount of funds. Even if the equity valuation of the Momo Baizha project can be set very high, a considerable portion of the shares must be diluted to raise enough funds;"

"Either, I can keep most of the dividends I originally received in the enterprise development fund pool to seek to quietly reduce the intensity of capital increase and stock expansion; at the same time, I can grit my teeth and take out a new share capital to ensure that my shares will not be less than 34% in the capital increase and stock expansion next year."

"You have to know that once the shareholding is less than 34%, the drilling company will lose its veto power, and its control over Qingfeng Food will immediately drop to a very dangerous level. Momo Baizha is a well-known golden hen, and Momo Baichao is of extraordinary significance to the drilling company. You, the drilling company, will never give up."

At this point, Zhuo Mali's expression was quite amusing: "So...what do you think the drilling company will choose?"

Tugou didn't hesitate at all: "Of course I have to tighten my belt. I can't let the shareholding fall below 34%!"

Zhuo Mali laughed: "That's right, anyone with a brain would choose this... It's because Silent Hundred Bombs and Silent Hundred Stir-Fries are too important to your drilling company!"

"So, now you know why you can free up so much money next year, right?"

Zhuo Mali's tone was full of admiration and awe: "In fact, it's not just Qingfeng Food. All the participating and affiliated companies in the entire 817 broiler industry chain have been set up in a similar way by Mr. Yang... This has forced your drilling company to not only take a large portion of the dividends less, but also to take out % of the dividends it received and reinvest them."

"That is to say, originally, relying on these star projects of the 817 broiler industry chain and the Sino-Japanese joint venture projects, your drilling company could have received at least 3 million in dividends this year. However, with Mr. Yang's plan, your company can only get 1 million in dividends at most."

"However, the most terrifying thing is that as long as President Yang gives an order and allows these units covering the entire industry chain to reach an internal cooperation model through cross-holding, then the cost will be greatly reduced, and all plans for capital increase and share expansion will become unnecessary... Don't forget that your Qingfeng Food and Xi Xiangfeng Cannery have invested in several refrigeration equipment factories in Texas through satellite companies. In other words, even if it is the most troublesome cold chain cluster, you can handle it at a very low cost price."

At this point, Zhuo Mali patted Lv Yingying on the shoulder and said, "817% of the original huge enterprise development fund pool has suddenly become redundant funds. It is only natural to convert it into operating expenses... At that time, the projects you invested in will be nominally dispersed and merged into the expansion business of various units. Believe me, I will help you with project equity design and business connection. Even the head of the financial department of your drilling company can't find any faults... Humph, there are so many state-owned enterprises in the entire industrial chain of broilers. It is normal to have full-scenario business needs. Even if the project you incubate, the eldest sister of the Lu family, is weird, you can always find a reason to merge it in!"

There was one more thing she didn't say. No matter what Lu Yingying thought, the small industrial projects that she invested in and incubated, no matter under what name, would definitely leave some shares for her personally... It was useless for Tugou to object. When the shares of the new project were reallocated, Zhuo Mali would naturally help her with the operation.

Therefore, after this set of operations, the biggest beneficiary is actually Tugou herself. Not only does she have up to 2.74 million yuan in funds to squander and invest, but after the merger of the projects, she will also own a series of not-so-small personal shares in important projects in the entire 817 broiler industry chain... Especially for Qingfeng Food, she originally obtained 2% of Qingfeng Food’s shares through the incentive rule. After this operation, her shareholding will at least reach 4%.

Although Zhuo Mali did not say it explicitly, Tugou had learned some knowledge about equity structure from Yang Mo. Although he was not proficient in it, he was aware of this problem.

At the moment, he looked at the peach in front of him stupidly and couldn't help asking: "Sheep shit...Boss Yang, why do you do this?"

She herself didn't know what she was referring to, nor why she suddenly asked such a question, but she asked it anyway.

Zhuo Mali looked at this silly girl with a complicated expression. She was obviously inferior to Miss Mu in every aspect. She moved her mouth twice, but finally sighed: "I don't know either. Mr. Yang's thoughts are too hard to guess."

"Perhaps, in addition to not having a good impression of our Dongying group, he also doesn't like the people from the drilling company very much, and doesn't want to spend his money in vain and let them take advantage of him;"

"Or maybe he thinks you have a stronger sense of social responsibility and are more down-to-earth than us, so he wants to hand the money over to you so that it can play its due value... You also know that Mr. Yang is not only the general manager of Dahua Company, but also the person in charge of Dezhou Urban Property Fund, and he has corresponding responsibilities and obligations."

Of course, it is more likely that someone is just thinking for you, wanting to give some silly girl a worry-free life for the rest of her life. Zhuo Mali thought so, but she didn't dare to say it out loud even if she had ten times the courage.

Tugou naturally had no idea what the older sister was thinking. He just stared blankly at the pile of snow under the chestnut tree, then subconsciously stretched out his foot and kicked it.

original……

Is that the case?

………………

Meanwhile, drilling companies.

"Section Chief Zhang, what you mean is... unless we can bear to lose the initiative and the right to speak on Momo Baizhai, Momo Baichao, and the 817 broiler breeding project, then the total dividend that Momo Baitou can accrue for these existing projects (817 broiler project + GAP medicinal materials) this year is only 1.6 million at most?"

It was hard to tell whether Mr. Wang's tone expressed any joy or sadness, but his tightly furrowed brows showed that he was not satisfied with the number.

Although 1.6 million in dividends was already a very scary number, Yang Mo had promised him that he would allocate a little more to the company when the dividends were distributed at the end of the year;
Although he did not ask for specific figures for the sake of dignity, he thought that with Yang Mo's identity and status, this "a little more" should be at least 2 million... He was very clear about how profitable the projects that Yang Mo had manipulated were.

but……

When he thought about the nationwide investment promotion activity that Yang Mo Bai Zha had organized before the end of the year and attracted countless people's attention, he was not sure whether Yang Mo was fooling him.

Momobaizha's nationwide investment plan was finalized at the beginning of the year, and the plan to expand the entire 817 broiler industry chain was also finalized early on;

These plans, which involved astonishingly large investments, were all finalized before he talked to Yang Mo.

perhaps……

In fact, Yang Mo did not fool himself. Under the premise of not damaging the foundation, it was already within his ability to squeeze out 1.6 million in dividends from these projects?

There was a hint of hesitation in Mr. Wang's eyes.

The benefits of the step-by-step expansion of the entire 817 broiler industry chain are obvious. As long as the shareholding ratio remains unchanged, by next year, the dividends from this part alone will be at least 5 million yuan.

Therefore, for the sake of next year's profits, it doesn't matter if you tighten your belt this year.

Ok……

1.6 million from existing projects + 7600 million from incremental projects + 4400 million from Dahua Company's dividends + 2.63 million from the company's main business income.

That means the total revenue this year is 5.43 million.

This figure appears to be much higher than the company's earnings last year, even nearly half more.

But the problem is that the company had only 1.2 people last year, but this year it has swelled to more than 2!

This does not include the family members brought by the new employees.

Taking into account the level of price increases, this year's actual financial situation has not improved significantly due to the huge profits created by Mo Mo Bai Tou, but has declined instead.

but……

If the price and wage increases do not increase significantly next year, 5.43 million will just be enough to cover the company's normal operating expenses next year, and a small portion will be used to support the construction of the southwest base.

As for the gas station plan to provide great support to myself, it is unlikely.

Thinking of this, Mr. Wang felt annoyed.

His intuition told him that the dividend amount suggested by Momobaitou was carefully designed by Yang Mo, with the purpose of keeping the company in a state where it could neither eat enough nor starve to death, so that it would have to continue to rely on him.

But he was unwilling to think deeply about it. Momo Baitou was now managed by Zhang Wenshun, and Yang Mo also gave Zhang Wenshun great authority. If this number was really carefully designed, then...

Taking a deep breath, Wang Xingmin suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind and slowly said, "As a member of Southwest Enterprises and the most profitable unit in Southwest Drilling Company, our company always remembers our mission. If we make money, we should support the construction of our hometown."

"It was like this before, it will be like this later, and it is like this now!"

"Of course, everyone knows the company's current situation. Although the company's revenue this year is nearly 2 million more than last year, our number of employees has also doubled. If we add the families of these employees, there will be more places to spend money... We are all in the same unit. It is impossible to watch the families of the original employees of the company enjoy a good life while the new families are starving, right?"

"Therefore, the company's basic operating expenses next year must take the families of these new employees into consideration!"

At this point, Mr. Wang looked around at some people whose faces had slightly changed, and waved his hand: "Before the meeting, I have asked Chief Li of the Finance Department to calculate again and again. Considering that the wages of employees will increase by 5% next year as usual, and the bonus ratio of front-line drilling workers will remain unchanged, in order to maintain the normal operation of the entire company, to ensure that all employees and their families have a house to live in, water to use, heating to warm up when cold, medicine to take when sick, pensions for injuries, schools for children, cars to ride in the city, and labor insurance every month, the cost is about 5.2 million;"

"That is to say, the maximum amount of money the company can take out to support our hometown this year is only 2300 million!"

At this point, Mr. Wang's eyes flashed with determination: "This 2300 million,"

“It not only includes the loss-covering expenditures of all previous aid projects;”

"At the same time, everyone should remember that the current Company 1 is no longer the same as before. As long as we are still a member of the drilling company, no matter how many new employees there are, we must treat them equally!"

"Therefore, in addition to the reserved aid investment areas such as Mianyang, Tongren, Zunyi, Chishui, and Qujing that we have supported every year, starting from this year, we will also start supporting 11 counties and cities including Luliang, Zhaotong, Weining, Luxian, and Wanyuan!"

Wow~!

As Mr. Wang's voice fell, a slight clamor suddenly sounded in the conference room.

2300 million,
There are nearly thirty counties and cities;

Moreover, the distribution was made to so many regions, counties and cities, while including the guarantee for the previous projects;

Are you sure this isn't a joke?

Even though the mountain-opening monster's bloodline had great suppressive power, many people couldn't help but start looking at him with a subtle look in their eyes.
Seeing the changes in these people's expressions, Mr. Wang's eyes flashed with a strange light, but his face was as resolute as ever:
"Of course, the 2300 million yuan is divided among so many regions, and it is still divided among so many regions while ensuring that the previous aid investment projects can continue to operate. The amount that each district, county and city can get is really limited, and it is difficult to play a role in supporting the construction of my hometown;"

"so……"

President Wang waved his hand and said, "So, although our company can only take out a negligible 2300 million to support the construction of everyone's hometown, I will ask the head office to apply to the ministry and apply for some supporting projects to the ministry, and strive to achieve two uses of one money. In addition to using the funding from the ministry to improve the basic supporting facilities of some industries, we can also let everyone have a decent explanation for their hometown!"

Apply for funding from the department through the head office?
Two uses for one dollar?
Is there a decent explanation?
Everyone who understood the underlying meaning of Mr. Wang's words felt as happy as if they were on a roller coaster.

Can you actually eat the rich?
Mr. Wang is indeed worthy of being Mr. Wang, he is just right!

In the past, I was always the target of being fleeced in the company, so how could I dare to ask for money from the department!
After all, it's just a second-level unit. Every general manager in history has always been calculating how to save money on clothes and food. Who has the courage and confidence to put their ideas into the department?

Thinking of this, many people looked at Mr. Wang with awe again, and their faces were filled with fiery anticipation.

If the department can raise a hand, I'm sure the money will be there, right?

I just don't know how much my hometown can get with so many wolf cubs surrounding it.

However, unlike those people whose faces were full of expectations, although Zhang Wenshun's face was full of admiration, there was a hint of anxiety between his brows.

As a person who has worked in more than half of the companies under the Southwest Petroleum Bureau in the past ten years, he knows very well that it is not so easy to ask for money from the ministry. It is impossible for the ministry to give you so much budget as a favor. It would be a waste!
If this were really that easy, Southwest Drilling Company No. 2 and No. 3 would not have had such a hard time in the past two years, and they might even have to rely on transferring employees to Company No. 1 to relieve their pressure.

He dared to bet that once this application was submitted, the department would most likely kick it out and then ask other companies to see if anyone had the spare capacity and was willing to lend a hand to their own sister units.

It stands to reason that after such an operation, this kind of payment application will most likely fall on deaf ears and become one of countless waste documents.

But Lao Wang is not someone who would easily speak out in public, and his tone just now was surprisingly firm;
That is to say...

Zhang Wenshun sighed silently, looked towards a certain direction in the south, and a slight sense of loss welled up in his heart...
