Chapter 151

At this moment, the Hezi executives who were waiting for Lin Wei in the store also came out. The new manager, Hu Xiwen, the store manager, Jin Xin and others gathered around Lin Wei, like forming a line of defense.

The scene was quiet for a few seconds, and the crowd began to raise their hands.

Wu Ming glanced at it and clicked on a male reporter in the front row.

"Is what the newspaper said true? Did you persecute your love rival?"

"No." Lin Wei said directly.

The other party immediately retorted: "How to prove it?"

Lin Wei looked at the man's indignant expression and said calmly: "I can only prove what I have done. I don't need to prove what I haven't done. You can't have someone's upper lip and lower lip." If someone accuses me of killing someone, I have to prove it myself. How can I prove it? Shouldn’t it be someone else’s evidence, or the person’s personal accusation?”

“My mother has come forward and said it was you who pestered the professor, but I personally Interviewer, do you still want to quibble and deny?" Suddenly someone in the crowd refuted loudly.

Lin Wei took a deep breath and said, "Here two years ago, I..."

"Because the professor's mother was lying!" Suddenly a refuting voice came from the crowd.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

I found that the person speaking was a well-mannered young man wearing silver-rimmed glasses. He was wearing a black trench coat, he had a handsome and elegant appearance, and his temperament was also very outstanding.

"Why do you say that someone is lying?"

"Because I am the person involved, and I am her son." Shi Jingchen looked at the person who asked the question and slowly said, "She deliberately chose to say this in order to elevate her son's identity. Before, we There was a quarrel between the two families, and she would not let go of this opportunity. She would step on the woman who had disgraced her..."

Shi Jingchen looked at the crowd and said, "Because two years ago, it was the same. Here, she publicly spread rumors that Lin Wei was having an affair with an old man who had a wife and children, but Lin Wei refuted it. Many people knew about this, but few knew that that person was my mother. "

Wow - -

The crowd roared.

What direction is this going?

"Are you really that professor from the University of Hong Kong?" someone asked.

Shi Jingchen showed his ID.

His temperament, good looks, and certificates greatly enhance his credibility.

Journalists will definitely not be reconciled to such a result. What, what other explosive points are there?

They asked: "But you have refused to be interviewed before and have not come forward to explain. Why did you come forward this time? Could it be that you were threatened?"

Shi Jingchen stopped for a moment. Under the eyes of everyone, he breathed out and said: " I was selfish, I was..."

"I didn't let him say it," Lin Wei interrupted him, "Two years ago, I told the ladies present here not to fall into the trap of self-evidence. To slander you, you have to ask that person to provide evidence, otherwise it will be a rumor. To know how to fight back, I must set a good example. I want to prove to them that they can escape unscathed without proving themselves."

She stared at the crowd: "But I didn't say, what should you do if the whole world slanders you?"

"Are you saying that everyone here has slandered you? It's because you don't stand up to clarify, and you still blame others for scolding you? Besides, who knows if this professor was forced by you?" Some people were dissatisfied with her remarks.

Lin Wei smiled and said: "One person's mistake is a mistake, but when it rises to a group, the mistake will become correct. Self-verification or non-self-verification, and the truth will become unimportant, just like your current attitude , Even if it turns out that I am being spread, people will always believe what they want to believe. "

"You still want to blame everyone, and we have no enmity with you. You might as well reflect on yourself, because flies don't bite seamless eggs. "Why wouldn't something like this happen to others?"

Lin Wei let out a breath and said slowly: "I also want to know who should I blame at this time? Should I blame you?"

She looked at everyone and shook her head slowly: "I shouldn't blame you. What I should blame is myself. It's because I don't stand high enough that you focus on my marriage and love issues. It's because my grades aren't good enough that you can't see that besides my gender, I Other things I’ve done.”

There was silence.

Hu Xiwen lowered his head and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers.

"It's just..." Lin Wei stood on the steps and laughed at herself, then looked at everyone again, "If even people like me are experiencing gender bullying, what about ordinary people? What kind of life do ordinary women live? , I still have a chance to stand up and speak out, what about them? How can they speak for themselves and tell the world about their grievances?”

“Two years later, I didn’t expect that I would still be standing here to clarify myself, but what I want to say today? Yes, the slander I suffered personally is not important. What I hope is that people here today can see something and feel something... I have heard a saying that the darkness we see is not really darkness. The real darkness will never see the light, we can't see it, we ignore it, we think it's a common little thing..."

Hu Xiwen lowered her head and sobbed softly. She had just finished arguing with her parents before she came, and after hearing these words of Lin Wei, She is very empathetic and her emotions cannot be calmed down no matter what.

Those humiliating insults and shackles made her breathless.

It had been almost a year since her divorce, and she thought she had come out, but when she came back, everything was brought back to its original state.

Wu Ming looked at Lin Wei. He knew that she had been prepared, but he didn't expect that what she said was so true and sincere. Was it a counterattack or what she felt in her heart.

"Hezi knows it. I would like to quote Pericles's words. To be free, you can have happiness; to be brave, you can be free. I hope every woman has the courage to fight in the face of difficulties. Don't lose it... We need to fight for power ourselves. This process will definitely not be smooth. We have a long way to go, but I will accompany everyone, and Hezi will also accompany everyone..."

Lin Wei's eyes Looking at everyone calmly, he said very solemnly: "From now on, 5% of Hezi's annual profits will be used to protect women's rights and protect women's health, poor sick women, underage girls, single mothers, and those suffering from family problems. Women who are victims of violence or sexual assault... will all be targeted by us. We will provide material and legal assistance. It may only reach the Xiangjiang area at first, but I believe that in the future, all women in the world will benefit from this. We will We will set up a foundation and use special funds to contribute what we can. "

The scene was very quiet.

A strange emotion spreads around.

Sun Muyin stood below, and she found that her sister would always shine like this. She knew a long time ago that she would chase this beam of light and walk the same path as her.

All she can do now is raise her hands and applaud Sister A again.

With Sun Muyin taking the lead, everyone followed and began to applaud.

It was the same scene as two years ago.

"Well done!" Someone shouted.

"Come on!"

Lin Wei turned her head and smiled. After a while, when the applause stopped, she looked at the crowd again and said: "In the past, everyone said that Hezi's consumers were rich ladies who did not engage in production, but I want to say that in the future, they will become important members of the foundation, and their consumption will also help other women. Hezi knows that women will help women because they know the plight of women.”

“Finally, thank you all for your support to me . Concerned about my relationship status, before I reunite with my parents, I will not consider marriage issues for the time being. I will focus on my career. Compared with men, Hezi’s future development is what I care more about. Thank you all, thank you all After the opening ceremony, everyone can visit the store. There is a media area with tea and snacks prepared. You can rest and have a cup of tea here. Thank you." Lin Wei bowed.

Lin Wei finished.

Shi Jingchen was suddenly surrounded by reporters.

He stood in the crowd and watched Lin Wei turn around and walk into the store surrounded by everyone.

He seemed to see an invisible chasm lying in front of them, and he understood that Lin Wei did not need his help at all. With or without him, she would give everyone the most powerful response.

Compared with those who scolded her, she was really doing something, using actions to change and fight.

On the contrary, throughout the whole incident, he behaved like a clown.

Looking at the reporters gathered around him, Shi Jingchen knew that if he hid this time, he might never be able to leave again in this life, just like when he abandoned his grandfather and fled the mainland alone.

On the opening day of Hezi, Lin Wei invited some dignitaries to support the occasion, but most of them were senior members of Hezi. On the opening day, the popularity must be guaranteed no matter what.

"Paris Fashion Week is coming soon. Our show is scheduled for November 18th. If Madam is free, she can come to France to watch the show. We will provide air tickets, food and accommodation, and there will be a brand reception in the evening. We have invited local people Stars come to perform."

Lin Wei personally delivered the gifts and invitations to them.

The ladies who were invited were very happy: "I have spent money on you, but this time it will be at your winery?"

"This year will be a little different. The show will be the same as other brands, and it will be at the main show venue of Fashion Week, but in the evening The brand wine party was held at our Aimeng Winery. "

Last time, everyone had a deep memory of the Hezi show.

They usually hang out in the wealthy circles of the port city. When they go abroad, they just buy some things and see the scenery. They have no contact with the upper class circles in Europe. This experience can be regarded as seeing the outside world. These European nobles are really shocking. Eye-opening.

In addition to buying clothes, Lin Wei and the others were responsible for the entire cost, as well as accompanying assistants and exclusive catering. It can be said that the whole process was very enjoyable. This is called high-standard treatment.

This experience is also a bragging rights for them. After returning, some people exaggerate the whole experience and make other ladies envious.

Some wives who did not get the invitation letters began to frequent Hezi and were upgraded to high-level VIPs. This time they received the invitation letters as expected and can go back and show off.

When the reception was almost over, Lin Wei returned to the lounge, and the assistant brought her slippers.

Lin Wei kicked off her high heels and sat down to drink water and rest. She took a deep breath. No matter how strong she was, she couldn't stand standing in high heels for several hours. Her toes were already cramping.

"You have to go to Kowloon for a meeting at two o'clock in the afternoon. There are two secretary candidates who need you to interview. You will meet with the senior staff of the Bank of East Asia at four o'clock. At seven o'clock in the evening, you will attend Hezi's thank-you dinner. This is a brief meeting process. Take a look at it. "Wu Ming explained to her the next itinerary.

Lin Wei took the meeting materials and read them carefully while biting the straw.

"Do you feel tired?" Wu Ming looked at her shaking her neck from side to side, and suddenly said, "If you feel tired, I will help you reschedule your interview and bank appointment. Tomorrow will be free, and there are only important things Hang Seng's board of directors. "

Her workload has been a bit too much recently.

Lin Wei raised her head, looked at him and said, "Wu Ming, please go and do something for me."

...

Lin Wei was busy, and Fusheng's Mrs. Eaton was even busier.

After spending 500 million yuan, what she got in the end was endless ridicule. Shareholders, directors, HSBC, and even public opinion all questioned her ability. They regarded this as a war between two women.

Now Lin Wei has relied on her excellent public relations skills to resolve a public opinion crisis. In this land, diligence and frugality are virtues, and luxury goods have always been criticized. However, Lin Wei this time made Hezi wear a charity The coat makes it impossible for attackers to attack.

Women helping women.

Mrs. Eaton snorted coldly. These people actually believed her nonsense. Classes, regardless of gender, were all about oppression at the bottom. This was just her method as a businessman.

She didn't understand why Lin Wei could always make precise use of the external environment and turn crises into opportunities to climb up again and again.

But now, HSBC's pressure makes her breathless.

The loan conditions signed by Fusheng and HSBC at that time were that 15% of Fusheng's equity was used as collateral. Fusheng must ensure that the counter-takeover was successful, otherwise the loan would be repaid immediately, and if the money was not paid, they would handle the shares of Fusheng themselves. .

This is not so much a contract as a bet.

HSBC does not allow itself to suffer any losses. As Lin Wei said, the so-called guaranteed harvest due to drought and floods, the success or failure of others has nothing to do with them. The condition for their entry is to ensure their own interests.

Before the crisis, the value of 15% of the equity was around 1.5 billion, but now it is only worth 500 million. If this really allows HSBC to succeed, then she, the talker, must take the blame and resign.

The earlier 500 million bond, and now HSBC's 500 million arrears, plus the losses suffered by Fusheng after the crisis, have always been to demolish the east wall to pay for the west wall.

The money has been spent. If they want to raise more money, they have to deal with the Kowloon stocks in their hands. They bought them at an average price of more than 30 yuan, but they can't sell them at this price.

They released a little to the secondary market at 30 yuan per share, but did not dare to release more. Now that the takeover war has come to an end, once more is released, the price will drop rapidly. There is nothing rational about the stock market. People who buy now are all based on their trust in Lin Wei, but in the depressed Xiangjiang market , there are not many such people.

Fu Sheng must find the right person to take over these stocks.

It wouldn't be difficult in normal times, but now, who can have so much money?

Mrs. Eaton closed her eyes, thinking, what would Lin Wei do if she encountered this situation?

Why can she break the game every time?

"Madam...Mr. Kuman would like to make an appointment with you." The assistant relayed the content of the phone call to Mrs. Eaton.

Cuman?

Mrs. Eaton couldn't help but frown.

Putting down the cup with exquisite retro patterns, Kuman said with a smile: "Madam, she looks a little tired."

Mrs. Eaton glanced at him, and the bright red Danko swirled gently on the wall of the cup: "If I were Mr. Kuman, I would directly Explaining the purpose of the visit, some British people's way of greeting is always unpleasant."

Kuman didn't know what he was thinking of, and suddenly smiled: "I probably know what Lin Wei was feeling when he came here. "Yes."

Mrs. Eaton looked at him and asked, "What?"

Kuman didn't explain, but said, "Trust me, I'm here to help you."

"Help?" Mrs. Eaton said coldly.

Without the person in front of him, Fu Sheng would not be in the quagmire now. Sometimes success or failure is just a little bit different.

"What I said is true. Although the previous things were not pleasant, there is no enmity between us, right? I just want to buy the shares of Kowloon Aviation in your hands."

Mrs. Eaton was stunned, and then asked: "How much do you want to buy?"

"All of them." Kuman said.

Mrs. Eaton did not show any happy expression on her face. She looked at Kuman and asked, "What about the price?"

This is the key. Whether the other party is helping or taking advantage of the situation will be reflected in the price.

"The price before the storm was 10 Hong Kong dollars per share."

Mrs. Eaton looked at him without saying a word, with no expression on her face.

Compared with the acquisition price, this price is definitely low, but according to the current stock market situation, it is extremely reasonable.

After all, the stock price halved after the storm.

The current stock market cannot bear the more than 20 million shares held by Fu Sheng.

If the other party can really take it, it can indeed alleviate their tight financial situation. Fu Sheng can borrow some of the remaining money and sell some assets, which will give HSBC almost 500 million.

But this is really depressing. She spent 500 million to buy 16 million shares, and then sold more than 25 million shares for 250 million. This will eventually become her shame.

"Where did you get the money?" Mrs. Eaton asked. "You wouldn't use all your assets to buy the shares of Kowloon Aviation. Do you want to acquire them?"

"Of course not," Kuman said with a smile. " I forgot to introduce you, I am now the manager of Kowloon Aviation."

...

"Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Kuman, who will be the executive director of our company."

Lin Wei introduced Kuman to the board of directors . Directors present.

The executive director who concurrently serves as the general manager is normally selected by shareholders, but now it is Lin Wei, a major shareholder, who has the final say. Naturally, whoever she chooses will be chosen.

Kuman will personally subscribe for a part of the shares of Kowloon Airlines held by Fu Sheng, about 5%, so if successful, he will still be a shareholder of Kowloon Airlines.

On the one hand, Lin Wei wants to retain the remaining stocks as equity incentives to allow important employees to hold shares. On the other hand, she wants to prevent the stock price from falling and stabilize the price, otherwise Mrs. Eaton will cause chaos in the secondary market. Kowloon Aviation The stock may crash, although this possibility is very low.

These stocks cannot be sold all at once, otherwise the tragedy of Cha Lian will happen again. You must choose the time to release them little by little, borrow money from the bank to buy back the stocks, and release some when you are short of money or when you need to pay interest.

Lin Wei still has confidence in Kowloon Aviation Industry, and she will not let the stock price drop significantly.

When the time is right, she will also choose other investors to join.

These two decisions of Lin Wei surprised the directors, but they did not encounter any objection from them.

First of all, repurchasing stocks is beneficial to the company. Secondly, Kuman is British and has no problem with his personal ability, which makes them feel a little better.

Lin Wei brought Kuman here because she thought he was capable, and on the other hand, she wanted to free up her hands to do other things.

Hezi and the shipyard were waiting for her, and she couldn't let this good opportunity pass.

Her schedule is too full. If the Kowloon aviation industry is not divided a little bit, then she will be really nailed here.

As the saying goes, if you don’t know how to lead a team, you will have to work until death by yourself.

We still need to learn to delegate power appropriately. Even if we are not completely free for the time being, it will be much easier.

"Mr. Kuman has a half-year inspection period. If he has neglected his duties in any way, I hope everyone will actively report it to me."

Lin Wei felt happy at the thought that the burden on her body would be lighter.

Kuman looked at her helplessly: "I have long heard that you are very good at putting pressure on others. Now I finally see it. I thought you only did it when you were drunk..."

Lin Wei suddenly raised his hand. , began to applaud: "Let us welcome Mr. Kuman to join us with warm applause."

Kuman was forced to interrupt the topic and turned his head to greet the directors who applauded him.

It has to be said that Kuman is also the big winner in this acquisition. He has paid nothing for this out and in. He still owns 5% of the equity and got the seat of executive director of Kowloon Airlines, and he got nearly 1 Billion, this person is indeed very business minded.

But there is another person just like him.

...

"This is a check from Hang Seng Bank for 100 million yuan." Wu Ming placed the check in front of Song Ye.

Song Ye leaned on the seat, looked at the check in front of him, smiled lightly, but said nothing.

Li Ping knocked on the door and came in. He brought the prepared meal to Song Ye, but when he saw Wu Ming, his face immediately turned cold.

It's this bad boy again, and his ghost is still there.

Song Ye asked Wu Ming: "Have you eaten?"

"Have you eaten?" Wu Ming didn't eat. He just felt it was troublesome and wanted to go back after finishing the work. "If you don't take this money, it's a cheap bank, Lin Wei The interest payment has already started."

Song Ye looked at him: "Why do you think I won't accept it?"

"No..."

Wu Ming wanted to say it was not him, but Lin Wei asked him to say that, fearing that Song Ye would not accept it.

He didn't think that Song Ye wouldn't accept it. Last time he took the initiative to steal the donation contract, Song Ye also accepted it happily. This person seemed to not refuse.

Wu Ming paused, looked at his lunch box, and said: "It's a bit late to eat at this time. You should pay more attention to eating on time, pay attention to balanced nutrition, and eat less sugar..."

Wu Ming was halfway through, He couldn't help but sigh. This was too strange. Why did he remind Song Ye of this?

Nasty.

As expected, Lin Wei didn't give him any good jobs.

When he looked at Song Ye again, the other party had already opened the lunch box, which was full of color and flavor, including vegetables, chicken drumsticks, prawns...

Wu Ming was silent.

What does Lin Wei think? Is this someone who can treat her badly?

Song Ye looked towards him and said, "Go on."

Wu Ming shook his head, then stood up and said, "I won't delay your meal, I'll leave first."

Song Ye said nothing and nodded.

After everyone left, he put down the chopsticks in his hands and covered the lunch box back.

His long white fingers picked up the check.
