Turning thirty is an awkward age. Some people shine brightly and achieve glory at this age, while others find their lives a messy struggle.
Undoubtedly, Chen Pingsheng belonged to the latter....
Gao Hu was indeed in trouble. He had negotiated a life-saving 500 million yuan financing before the New Year, but because of this incident, his relationship was completely cut short with just one sentence.
Chef Gao originally planned to use this money to pay salaries and stabilize the current situation.
Now it seems that he is completely bankrupt. Not only that, people not only want to bankrupt him but also make him bear more than ten billion in debt.
If this were to happen, his life would basically be ruined.
There will never be any chance of turning things around.
After Chen Pingsheng understood the situation a little, he completely ignored it. If he put himself in their shoes, he would imagine that if his relatives and friends encountered such a bad thing.
If his wife has slept with someone else, he will only do something more extreme.
This is the reverse scale that every man cannot touch. Not to mention the rich and powerful, even those who have nothing will take a knife and chop you down several streets.
Gao Hu obviously crossed someone else's bottom line this time.
After get off work, Chen Pingsheng didn't go anywhere, but went to help Comrade Lao Chen decorate his own Red Star Hotel.
This restaurant has an investment of 50 million yuan and an area of over 3,000 square meters, making it the largest hotel of its kind.
The days passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was mid-March.
In just ten days, Chef Gao declared bankruptcy and Gao Hu disappeared from the world.
No one knew where he went, not even Chang Fu could contact him.
Many people in the capital market were collecting debts from him, and court summonses were delivered to his parents one after another.
The once-powerful CEO Feiyangyang ended up like this in less than three years.
Those who knew him also sighed.
Chang Fu even brought Yang Qian to visit again, his purpose was naturally to ask for a way out for Gao Hu.
Gao Hu has nothing now. If no one speaks to the capital market or even the old man he offended on his behalf, he is afraid that he will not be able to stay in the whole of China.
I lost so much money and signed a liability agreement. It’s not that easy to just run away now.
Chen Pingsheng was sitting on the balcony drinking tea while a light drizzle was falling outside.
March is already a rainy month, and April is even rainier.
After he put down the teacup, Chang Fu said, "Gao Hu really can't hold on any longer. His parents are almost kneeling down to beg me."
Yang Qian snorted, "It's all his fault. He loves playing with women outside, and now that something goes wrong, he expects others to clean up his mess. How could that be possible?"
Yang Qian said this, but since she was here, she also showed her actual attitude.
No matter what, Gao Hu and I grew up together.
If it didn't involve life and death, it would be fine, but now it involves life and death.
Do you really think that so many people in the capital market are kind-hearted?
Chen Pingsheng said, "You two don't need to play double game here. I will send him a notice later. I can't guarantee more, I can only guarantee that he is still alive."
There is a height limit for Gaohu for sure.
Fortunately, Xiao Chunchu divorced him early, otherwise no one could escape.
It is impossible for Chen Pingsheng to take on any debts for him, and he will basically never have a chance to turn his life around in this life. He can only find a place to live a dull life.
That would be the best outcome.
Chang Fu has the best relationship with him, and the three of them are actually similar.
But Chen Pingsheng had no choice. This matter was difficult to handle and he didn't know how to deal with it.
When they went back together, Yang Qian was driving her latest Bentley Continental GT sports car, and she kept glaring at Chang Fu.
"The luckiest thing in your life is meeting a brother like Lao Chen. Otherwise, with your character, you wouldn't be much better than Gao Hu even if you became rich."
"You can't compare me with Lao Chen."
Chang Fu smiled bitterly and said, "I've never seen anyone who can be as self-disciplined as him after becoming rich."
"Do you think it's easy to be the head of such a big family?"
Yang Qian also manages Lujiao Coffee herself, and she knows very well that it is very difficult to maintain a business for a long time.
"Regarding Gao Hu's previous incident, you said that Lao Chen was too ruthless. You didn't consider that so many people were watching. If he didn't expel Gao Hu, how would he lead the team in the future?
You too, Gao Hu was murdered for having an affair with someone else's wife, and you immediately ran to Lao Chen to beg him. If he agreed to your request, wouldn't all the people who were fired because of his influence in the past have died unjustly? If he didn't agree to your request, wouldn't you say he disregarded their previous friendship?
Chang Fu was once again speechless.
"You came with me this time because you knew that Lao Chen would definitely agree to help Gao Hu this time?"
"Of course I know."
After all, Yang Qian had worked in a municipal unit for a long time, so she obviously saw many things more thoroughly than Chang Fu.
"Old Chen can allow others to bankrupt Gao Hu, or even make him unable to recover in his lifetime, but he will never allow others to use despicable means to kill Gao Hu. This is also his bottom line. When others don't know this situation, they dare not kill him.
"If Gao Hu hadn't had a childhood relationship with Lao Chen, do you really think he could have gotten away under the noses of so many people? Are you dreaming?"
"Has Lao Chen's influence become so terrifying?"
Chang Fu was quite surprised when he thought about it. Just a childhood friend's reputation could save Gao Hu's life, especially when he had offended so many people.
This is really scary.
Yang Qian sighed and said, "How capable do you really think you are in managing Tengying Entertainment, which has so many beautiful women and a market value of over 100 billion?
"I can tell you with certainty that with all your radical tactics, if it weren't for Old Chen backing you up, any other female celebrity could easily embarrass you by bringing up her godfather."
Chang Fu really believed this, but after a long time, he couldn't help but become a little arrogant, especially when he was running Xinteng Live and Tengying Entertainment.
In fact, Yang Qian knew very well that neither Tengying Entertainment nor Xinteng Live could be controlled by Chang Fu.
At the most typical time, Xin Teng Live would receive at least several thousand reports from netizens every day.
All kinds of internet celebrities are in trouble, either this one or that one is in trouble.
Such a large listed company has so many complaints.
If he didn't have some extraordinary abilities, he would have been defeated long ago. Chang Fu just stayed in the position of president and didn't need him to take care of anything.
As early as when he was in Hong Kong, Chen Pingsheng brought together the founders of Kuaishou to invest in Xinteng Live.
It also brought in a large number of top bosses from the capital market to join in.
A good person plans things out, and there are some things that Chang Fu simply does not understand.
The simplest thing is that Lujiao Coffee’s overseas development has also been smooth.
That’s because Lao Chen has a great reputation internationally, and many people have to give him some face.
He really thought that his 10 billion investment in Leicester City and the fund investment company on Wall Street were all in vain.
Without these things from Lao Chen, they wouldn't be as relaxed as they are now.
Yang Qian also repeatedly reminded Chang Fu not to take himself too seriously.
Things must be done well, but we must never mention the brotherhood of the past.
Lao Chen is not only his brother, but also the big boss of 700,000 people.
This responsibility is much greater than brotherhood.
Without the excellent reputation he has accumulated over the years, how could the people above him give them face?
Even though they are returning to their hometown now, even the county head and the city level will come out to receive them.
That's just because of the reputation of Tengying Group.
Sometimes word of mouth seems useless on the surface, but when you really need it, you will know what millions of workers are saying and how much it means.
This is also the most valuable invisible asset of the entire Tengying Group.
Of course, these things will also place particularly high demands on Chen Pingsheng.
Only he can conscientiously maintain the market reputation accumulated over the years.
It is absolutely impossible to change someone else.
