Chapter 313 Are you unwilling?
Waiters were coming in and out of the private room. Yunhailou has a restaurant that serves Chinese and Western dinners from 5 to 8 o'clock. There are more than a dozen dishes on the table, authentic Shandong cuisine. The client that Mr. Huo invited is from Shandong, known as Boss Mo in the industry. After graduating from university, he went to New Zealand to develop his career and made a lot of money. In 2003, he returned to China to invest and opened an underground bank in southern Fujian.
It is of the same nature as Liang Chihui's underground money house in other provinces. The interest rate is not illegal and is not protected. If the customer defaults on the debt, he cannot sue, so the debt collection methods are relatively violent.
In clubs, bars, and various places, calling someone "boss" is a respectful title that makes one appear powerful; in companies and groups, calling someone "Mr. So-and-so" makes one appear elegant and respectable.
He Sang poured two cups of tea, keeping one for himself and giving one to Mrs. Huo. "How much do you want to borrow?"
"600 million."
"How much money does Boss Mo have in his bank?"
"There's 1.5 to 1.6 billion, but Boss Mo has other clients, so he can't lend it all to the Liang Group." Mrs. Huo was terrified. "Boss Liang has delegated the fundraising task to Old Huo. Old Huo gets sore all the time that his back teeth are swollen and his mouth is full of canker sores."
"Why don't you go to the bank?"
"What collateral?" Mrs. Huo asked. "Houses, luxury cars, watches, antiques? If word got out that Director Liang was selling off his assets to save the company, it would send shockwaves through Hebei's financial circles! His peers are eagerly awaiting the Liang Group's downfall. This is a golden opportunity. What if they all gang up on him? As for corporate loans, the Liang Group is deeply in debt. Banks might not approve a massive loan, and even if they did, wouldn't the group's integrity be exposed?"
He Sang's expression was solemn. "The Liang Group has been cooperating with President Zhao for many years, and everything has been peaceful. This year, Mrs. Zhao bribed the third brother, and was reported by Chi Hui. In the industry, the most taboo is to burn bridges after crossing the river. President Zhao is a lesson for Chi Hui. There is no way out for him."
Mr. Huo's phone call came in at this time. Mrs. Huo did not avoid He Sang and answered the call in person. "I'm arranging the meal."
"Boss Mo is in the garage. Go up to the second floor right away."
Mrs. Huo stood up and urged the waiter to set up the scene. "What about you?"
"I'm on my way, you can entertain me first."
She hung up the phone and said, "Ms. He, let's talk another day."
"I won't bother you anymore." He Sang also stood up, walked to the door, and paused. "Mrs. Huo, there is one thing I really don't understand."
"What's up?"
"Chi Hui isn't short of money. He hasn't purchased any property or sold any stores recently. At the charity dinner in April, they auctioned off an Australian white pearl necklace for me. They spent tens of millions without blinking an eye."
Mrs. Huo was so busy that she didn't have time to think carefully. She blurted out, "The company has no money, but the boss is not poor. Mr. Huang's company went bankrupt, and the family immigrated to France. The children go to aristocratic schools, and the wife attends high-end wine parties. They live a comfortable life!"
He Sang suddenly realized, "So the money in Liang Group's account is in Chi Hui's pocket."
"That's right." Mrs. Huo stepped on the sofa. "Manager! The lights are not on. Turn them up! The brighter the better!"
No wonder.
Yunhai Building is so luxurious, and the underground bank has a constant cash flow, which is fed by the blood of the Liang Group.
Liang Yanzhang successfully started his own business in the 1980s and 1990s. He was one of the first businessmen in China to take the plunge. He was bold and decisive, and extremely cunning and shrewd.
If he knew about it, then he and Liang Chihui colluded with each other and embezzled the company's public funds; if he did not know about it, Liang Chihui's scheming and courage were unfathomable.
They took every step carefully, deceived their superiors and concealed the truth from their subordinates, and forced a prominent family that had been prosperous for forty years into a dead end in full view of the public.
Liang Jing and Liang Jishen are not pushovers. Anyone who is "evil, bad, wicked, or greedy" will not escape their sharp eyes.
Only Liang Chihui was a playboy. Although he was capable, he was blindly loyal to Liang Yanzhang. He was even more respectful to the eldest and third houses. He was gentle and reserved, and they didn't pay any attention to him at all.
It was too late to realize his evil ambitions.
He Sang returned to the big private room where her colleagues were having their meal. Most of the food was Sichuan cuisine that was greasy and spicy, which she was not used to, so she only picked out fruits and snacks.
The waiter pushed a food cart into the room, which contained light and refreshing steamed dishes that suited He Sang's taste.
Ni Hong walked in front, wearing a pink shirt, A-line skirt, and wavy hair. She was not inferior to the beautiful women in Yunhai Building.
He Sang couldn't figure out why Liang Chihui wasn't interested in Ni Hong.
90% of experienced and mature men will have a smart and strong mature woman by their side. As a partner, they fight side by side. They are of similar age and have similar vision. They are like a gender-reversed version of themselves.
People of the same kind are often emotionally incompatible.
There is too little mystery, just like looking in the mirror every day, so boring.
Women will gradually fall in love with and become dependent on the men who fight alongside them, but men keep a clear distinction between their work and private lives.
The ending is basically that the woman becomes resentful and the two break up.
Suppose Ni Hong no longer loves Liang Chihui, but hates him...
She probably knows at least half of the secrets of Yunhai Tower.
I am not afraid of complete enemies, but I am afraid of confidants who turn against me halfway.
He Sang stared at the woman.
Ni Hong looked around the dining table. "All expenses in the private room tonight will be paid for by Chairman Liang of the Liang Group."
My colleagues cheered, "Can we take away the drinks and fruit plates?"
"It's not allowed in principle, but Miss He has a lot of face, so her friends can do it." Ni Hong was very disgusted, but had to put on a smile to please her on the surface.
"I want a bottle of Romanee-Conti!" The male colleague pulled out his phone to check the information. "There's '78, '85... '90's is expensive! Do you have any '90?"
The young woman who had worked her way up from a stand-in to the second female lead knew the big picture. He Sang had personally helped her get to the top, and she didn't want to embarrass him. "Can't Lafite shut you up?"
My male colleague glared at me, "I finally made it to Yunhailou to broaden my horizons, and I drink Lafite?"
"We sell 1996 Lafite, the most expensive on the market. Yunhailou only has three bottles. It's a treasure of calmness." Ni Hong maintained a respectable smile. "Would you like to open a bottle?"
"Open!" the male colleague was very excited.
Ni Hong instructed the staff in the wine room over the intercom, "96 Lafite, send it to the private room, Mr. Liang will sign the bill."
The employee asked, "What's your name?"
"Surname He."
"Is it Miss He?"
Ni Hong smiled, "She's the future boss lady."
He Sang leaned lazily on the sofa and ate a small piece of watermelon. "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Ni."
"It's my job to make Miss He happy." Ni Hong said hypocritically.
"You're not willing to accept this, are you?" He Sang stopped pretending and took the initiative to make it clear.
"I don't understand what you mean." She nodded. "Enjoy your meal."
"This large private room is reserved for the highest-ranking dignitaries. Liang Chihui has friends who aren't of the same rank, but he never makes exceptions. My colleagues have ordinary backgrounds and ordinary jobs, but you frequently interact with influential figures from all walks of life, so you've got one foot in the upper class. You think highly of yourself and look down on them, but Liang Chihui overturned the rules he set. You must be furious, right?"
Ni Hong turned her head, her smile instantly gone. "Are you proud?"
