Over the mountain is the sea

Chapter 81 Crisis ([-])

Liang Zhongming closed the cover of his mobile phone and rested his chin on his chin for a long time to meditate quietly, without any expression on his face. After a long time, he turned around, walked through the long and lonely corridor, and walked towards the conference room.

In the conference room, Zhiyuan sat in the middle of the short arc of the oval conference table, beside him was Rhodes with an inscrutable expression. Ren Zhiyuan waved his fists and shouted angrily: "Impossible! I absolutely don't believe it, the hotel's The operation has always been very good, how could the turnover be not working? There must be something wrong with your data, take it back to me immediately and recalculate!"

Zhao Chao, the vice president of finance of the hotel group, fiddled with the thick document in his hand in embarrassment, and felt aggrieved by Zhiyuan's questioning, but he didn't dare to refute it directly, so he stood there for a moment and paused for a while. He opened his mouth and explained euphemistically: "Xu Dong, from the report, the first three quarters did run smoothly, but you also know that our investment has always been greater than the return for more than a year. If the stock price rises steadily, naturally there will be no financing. Question. But this sudden bidding scandal has been taken advantage of by people with ulterior motives to make a big fuss. In addition, several construction units that cooperated with us in the early stage did not know who listened to the instigation. Well, if the stock price drops like this again, our market value has evaporated by more than [-] million! Now even the banks are alarmed, and I received several calls this morning, if they also..."

Zhiyuan didn't want to listen any longer, and waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, okay! I don't want to hear this, so you just tell me how to solve it."

Zhao Chao looked at Rhodes who sat next to Zhiyuan and kept silent for help.Rhodes understood, shrugged his shoulders, leaned slightly towards Zhiyuan and said, "Paul, you should understand that although we haven't paid a penny for these hotels, we still have a considerable share. Besides, the hotel The group is playing the name of intercommunication, so, in fact, we are already in the same boat.”

The door opened with a sound, and several pairs of eyes turned to Liang Zhongming who walked in at the same time. Rhodes looked at him with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes, but then turned his eyes away.

Feng Yi, who was sitting at the bottom, immediately looked at Liang Zhongming's expression alertly - he seemed to be in a daze when he received the call just now.However, Liang Zhongming didn't see any abnormalities on his face at this time. He went back to his seat and gestured to Rhodes who was speaking, signaling him to continue.

Rhodes nodded, and continued, "The accident of this bidding was not a big deal, but it happened too suddenly, without any warning, so everyone was caught off guard. The most urgent thing is to get Tan Jianxiao's matter back Dispose of it as quickly as possible, hold a media meeting at the same time, quickly clarify the matter, and minimize the impact as much as possible.”

Feng Yi's face has always been stiff. Tan Jianxiao is his subordinate, so he naturally has an unshirkable responsibility. What he can't figure out is that he has participated in the review of all aspects of the bidding. He didn't find any problems, but he didn't expect At the last moment, someone will throw out a jaw-dropping hole card.

At this time, no matter how many doubts he had in his heart, he still had to be firm on the surface, "Don't worry about this, I will start an investigation immediately when I get back."

Rhodes glanced at him, and said slowly: "This matter has already involved the reputation of the intercom, so people from our legal department went to Yunxi early yesterday morning, and I believe there will be a result within two days."

Feng Yi's face turned pale immediately, and he felt very uncomfortable. He quickly glanced at Liang Zhongming, who was always looking at the information in his hand thoughtfully, and had no desire to express his opinion.

Zhiyuan also frowned and muttered: "Why didn't we say hello to us beforehand! Think we are something."

Rhodes smiled and said: "You also know the group of people in the legal department. They always do things like this, no different from police detectives. Even I just learned about it before I came here today."

Zhiyuan shook his head helplessly at Feng Yi, and then said to Rhodes: "Let's get down to business, handling the bribery case can't fundamentally solve the crisis, what else can we do?"

His light attitude made Feng Yi deeply suspicious of his ignorance, but at this moment, he was unable to express this doubt.

Rhodes changed into a comfortable posture, nodded and said: "Of course, our troubles are not the matter itself, but the consequences of it. Paul, to be honest, I don't want to criticize the various measures you have taken after acquiring the hotel. Ms. Xu asked Intercom not to intervene too much in terms of business operations. We have kept our promise and have been playing the role of consultants. All analysis reports are also taken from the books provided by the Finance Department. Information. I have read Vice President Zhao’s report. The financial situation is indeed not optimistic. Everyone must know the details by now. In fact, it is not difficult to solve it, or increase investment, or introduce new partners, or— — get rid of one or two of the most troublesome hotels."

"Brother, what's your opinion?" Zhiyuan called in Liang Zhongming's direction.

Liang Zhongming raised his head, and everyone's eyes fell on his face. He is the second shareholder of the hotel and the senior manager of Yuanda. In fact, he has the most right to speak.However, his words blocked all the expectations of everyone, "Zhiyuan, you and Feng Yi have been running the hotel all along. What kind of idea should be taken is up to you to decide."

He spoke in a very light tone, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

Zhiyuan was taken aback for a moment, and didn't dare to refute. The hotel project was indeed his own idea, and even the agreement with Liang Zhongming was signed with his brother after begging his mother.

At the beginning, his mother's request was very straightforward. Within five years, he had to personally pick the leader in the hotel and make achievements. Her intention was obvious, to give him a place to display his skills, and Yuanda's stall was too big, and he didn't have the ability to manage it at that time.

He had been worried that his mother's condition would annoy his elder brother, but Liang Zhongming agreed without much hesitation, and even patted his shoulder to express his confidence in him.

Seeing the deep friendship between the two brothers, Xu Xinyi said with a half-smile on the sidelines: "Brother believes in you so much, you should work harder, don't hand him a pile of scrap metal five years later."

Hearing this, his face immediately changed slightly, and he almost didn't get angry on the spot.

However, at this moment, he discovered that running a hotel is not an easy task, and too many uncontrollable factors will happen every moment under unpredictable circumstances.

Feng Yi has been listening carefully and patiently. Although Zhiyuan is the chairman, Feng Yi has the most affection for the hotel. The entire hotel project has been built from scratch, and he has built a deep relationship with him. Liang Zhongming even promised that after the hotel is completely separated from the Xu family in the future, he will be allowed to hold a considerable share and become one of the shareholders of the hotel group. Otherwise, why would he want to swallow his anger and return to the shade of the Xu family? .

When Zhiyuan cast his eyes on him, Feng Yi immediately said: "At present, the five hotels under our umbrella are of equal strength, and it is not appropriate to sell any of them. Invite more negative public opinion."

Zhiyuan nodded and said: "I think so too. And the introduction of new partners, it is also far from being able to quench the thirst of the near."

Rhodes spread his hands, "Then, the only thing left is the additional investment."

Zhiyuan pondered and asked, "How much more do I need?"

Zhao Chao immediately said: "The exact amount has not been accurately estimated, and it should not be less than [-] million."

Zhiyuan blinked, "Proportionally Xu's contribution is [-]%, there should be no problem. Brother, how about you?"

Liang Zhongming's face turned serious, and he said slowly, "I don't have that much cash on hand."

Feng Yi suddenly became nervous. In fact, when he heard about the additional investment just now, he already had some ominous premonitions. Although he couldn't grasp Liang Zhongming's background accurately, he could guess a general idea. If he couldn't get the money at this time Come on, it is very likely that he will give up his shareholding in the hotel, so he himself... Wouldn't it be a waste of work? !

But Feng Yi's nervousness only lasted for a few seconds, and Liang Zhongming's calm expression suddenly reminded himself that behind him was a fund bank for backup——the Yan family.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his expression slowed down.

Zhiyuan hurriedly said: "Brother, don't worry, I'll borrow some from my mother to bear it first."

Rhodes raised his eyebrows, glanced at Zhiyuan and Liang Zhongming each, with ridicule in his eyes.

Liang Zhongming frowned uncomfortably and said, "Investment is not a child's play, I will find a way to solve my own problems."

Zhiyuan's fair face turned purple, and he shut his mouth embarrassingly.

Liang Zhongming just ignored, frowned and thought for a while: "In my opinion, the construction of several hotels can't be stopped. For those suppliers who come to demand payment, you can arrange to pay what should be paid according to the agreement, Yunxi The matter should be handled as low-key as possible, so as not to affect the overall situation. Some people wanted to read a joke and created this rare public opinion. We just took this opportunity to make positive advertisements for several hotels. Why not do it! He smiled relaxedly at Feng Yi, "Aren't you planning to promote the hotel's new image? Now is a good opportunity."

What he said made everyone laugh.

Rhodes said: "Mr. Liang is right. We are also very optimistic about the prospects of the hotel industry. Since everyone is willing to invest more, it is best. Vice President Zhao, you can prepare the specific plan first, and wait for the funds to be in place. With the pull of all aspects, I believe our stocks will not let everyone down!"

The meeting room was a little more excited, Feng Yi took a sneak peek at Liang Zhongming, and found that his complexion was gloomy compared to before, and his heart suddenly became uneasy.
