Zhang Wen's name

Chapter 213 New Year's Day Fireworks Show 7

Zhang Wen had arranged all the tasks for the New Year's Day fireworks show. He wanted to invite some people over, since they had also contributed to breaking the 9000 billion mark.

Thinking about this, Zhang Wen felt he needed to communicate with Sha Ruijin and the others, otherwise it would be too awkward.

When Sha Ruijin saw Zhang Wen walk in, he looked on with curiosity. Was this guy trying to pin the blame on me again? Although he wasn't really keen on seeing him, he maintained a polite demeanor on the surface.

"Comrade Zhang Wen, what brings you here?"

"That's right, our provincial government has decided to hold a fireworks show."

Sha Ruijin was completely bewildered. What fireworks show? Where did this fireworks show come from?

"Comrade Zhang Wen, I don't quite understand what you mean. Do you mean to prepare for the New Year's fireworks show?"

Zhang Wen was speechless. Didn't anyone tell him? Seeing this, Zhang Wen suddenly felt a little sorry for Sha Ruijin; he was truly a lone commander.

"Secretary Sha, our provincial government has decided to hold a city-themed fireworks show on New Year's Day."

Sha Ruijin understood now; this was to inform him of his participation, and New Year's Day was just a week away. Although he was a little frustrated, he was still satisfied that Zhang Wen had come to tell him.

"I understand, Governor Zhang. I will definitely attend on time."

"Secretary Sha, I've mainly come to discuss with you whether or not we should invite those entrepreneurs. After all, they've made contributions to Handong."

After thinking it over, Sha Ruijin decided to extend the invitation.

"Then let's use the same list as the last trade fair to invite people."

"Alright, let's go with that list then, Secretary Sha. I'll head back now."

Looking at Zhang Wen's back, Sha Ruijin admired him a little; no matter what he did, so many people cooperated with him.

...................................................

Office of the Governor of Handong Province.

Zhang Wen first called his good friend Wang Feng.

"Wang Feng, we have a fireworks show for New Year's Day, do you have time to come?"

Wang Feng is currently worried about where to hide.

"Governor Zhang, I need to have time. I'm being driven crazy by that Li Xiaodong, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission of Hanjiang Province."

Zhang Wen was very interested after hearing this. He knew Li Xiaodong, who was known for spoiling his son.

"Wang Feng, what's wrong with him lately? He's making you avoid him."

"It's all his son's fault. His son, Li Xiaobo, is currently pursuing my daughter relentlessly, and my daughter is hiding at home right now."

Zhang Wen was speechless. Was this how someone pursued someone? Had they no shame at all? This was outrageous! What kind of love was this? He was just after Wang Feng's fortune.

"Wang Feng, why didn't you call me?"

"Governor Zhang, this isn't a personal matter of mine, how could I trouble you? Besides, Li Xiaodong didn't make things difficult for me."

It seems Wang Feng hasn't realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Wang Feng, is it possible that someone wants to take over your family's property?"

Wang Feng was taken aback. "Impossible! Didn't he know there were people behind me?"

"It can't be that bad. Besides, I have you backing me up. He wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me."

"You certainly won't get away with it while you're alive, but what if you're gone by then? Can your daughter fight them?"

Wang Feng fell silent. Last time he wanted to ask his daughter to start working at the company earlier, but that brat actually said she didn't want to go.

"Governor Zhang, I've also considered this issue. I asked my daughter for her opinion, and she said she doesn't want to take over the business; she just wants enough money to live on. I'm at a loss now, since I don't have a son."

Zhang Wen suddenly felt that Wang Feng was also having a tough time, as such a large company didn't have a single successor.

"Wang Feng, what are you going to do then? Sell it or hand it over to a professional manager? There's one thing you need to understand: no matter what, your company can't go bankrupt. Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of employees will lose their jobs, and the consequences will be too great."

Wang Feng thought for a minute before speaking.

"Governor Zhang, I don't know what to do either. I don't trust anyone to take over. It's alright when I'm here, I can treat the employees well, but if I'm gone one day, I feel this company will definitely change drastically."

"Wang Feng, your considerations are very reasonable. I have a suggestion for you to consider."

Wang Feng was beaming with excitement. Zhang Wen was the person he trusted most in the world; without him, there would be no Yida today.

"Governor Zhang, please tell me your solution quickly."

"You know Warwick Company, right? You can have employees hold shares like they do."

"Governor Zhang, do you think the other shareholders agree? That's their money."

"I remember you still have 60% of the shares, right? If you're willing to give 40% to employees for stock ownership and dividends, they will only have the right to receive dividends, not the right to trade. Also, you can give your daughter 10% of the shares now, and give her another 10% later. With the support of those employees, your daughter can control the company without even having to go there."

"Governor Zhang, your idea is good, but what if those employees are eventually bribed?"

"What you're saying is possible. Why don't you add another clause: their votes can only support your daughter; otherwise, their shares will be automatically reclaimed."

"Governor Zhang, although what you said makes sense, my daughter doesn't want to manage the company. She says that as long as she has enough money to spend, she's fine, and she doesn't have any ambitions."

Zhang Wen was a little helpless. What's the point of playing with yarn when you encounter someone like this?

"Wang Feng, there's one last way, which I think is the safest: no one can take away the shares from your daughter."

"Governor Zhang, please speak. I will definitely listen to what you say."

"Here's the thing, you can give your daughter 5% of the shares, and when you can no longer work, you can sell them to the government for about 30% less than the market price. The government will definitely take care of your daughter since they've gotten such a great deal."

Wang Feng didn't think much of it when he heard this. What would he need so much money if the person was already gone?

"Governor Zhang, who do you think we should sell it to? I think we can offer around 60%. Anyway, my silly daughter can't spend it all. I gave her 1 million last year, and she didn't even spend all the interest. It makes me so angry."

Zhang Wen was speechless. So what if you're rich?

"Wang Feng, you decide what to do. Anyway, your company is still quite valuable, with plenty of cash flow, and your Yida Plaza is also a high-quality asset. As for who you want to sell it to, I think it should be the Hanjiang government, which you deal with the most."

"It seems I need to make a will first. When I sell the shares, I'll have my daughter donate half of the money. I'm afraid something might happen to her, a woman, if I leave her so much money."

"Wang Feng, don't let anyone know you're making a will. It's best to find a lawyer who is completely devoted to you to handle it for you."

Wang Feng was also startled upon hearing this, as he knew the consequences of others finding out.

"Thank you, Governor Zhang. How about you introduce a potential partner to my daughter? Preferably someone with good character. An average family background is fine too."

Zhang Wen was speechless. How did I become a matchmaker?
