Chapter 86 Press Conference
At the same time, in response to the overwhelming amount of negative information about Jiang Shan that was leaked online and the surging public opinion that was triggered, all departments in Shanghai that were related to the incident in which Jiang Shan took over Pengkun Fund and Jiang Yuanpeng Assets issued official documents.
When it was learned that 4.5 billion yuan of state-owned funds from Pengkun Fund had disappeared for no reason and Jiang Yuanpeng and Du Shaokun had fled abroad, it was Jiang Shan who took over the hole and filled it, thus protecting thousands of households that had received the 4.5 billion yuan from losses. The voices on the Internet suddenly became much smaller.
But at the same time, some conspiracy theories have emerged.
They said with certainty that Jiang Shan colluded with certain people, embezzled 4.5 billion yuan of funds, and then put the blame on Jiang Yuanpeng and Du Shaokun.
At this time, a document from the capital was sent to the Magic City; immediately afterwards, Shengxuan Group was closed down for crimes such as tax evasion, bribery, and violations.
Shengxuan’s Tan Zongming was detained, and all the executives involved were arrested.
At this time, Jiang Shan was discussing the development of Red Star with the new president of Red Star Group.
The new president is named Zhang Song. He was formerly the general manager of a business unit of XCMG. He was recommended by Cui Wei and approved by Jiang Shan and hired as the president of Red Star Manufacturing Group.
Zhang Song is a technical person. He graduated from Harbin Institute of Technology with a bachelor's degree, and obtained a master's and doctoral degree from the National University of Defense Technology. He also obtained a correspondence master's degree in management from Tsinghua University. He is an extremely powerful person.
Zhang Song has an ordinary appearance and is relatively thin, but he is very energetic and speaks very loudly.
"Red Star Group has a strong foundation in car manufacturing, but has no foundation in aerospace."
When talking about Red Star Group's development in the aerospace direction, Zhang Song put forward his opinion.
"If we want to enter the aerospace industry, the most convenient way is to acquire a private aerospace company and set up an aerospace division."
He added: “And it requires you to make a large-scale investment over a long period of time.”
Jiang Shan nodded slightly: "I have considered these issues. I reached some consensus with Xinghuo Company a few years ago, and the boss of Xinghuo Company responded two days ago."
"Xinghuo Company?" Zhang Song's expression changed, and he said, "Mr. Jiang, do you want to acquire Xinghuo? Xinghuo is not bad, especially its research team. I have learned that Dr. Liu Xun in their team is a rising star in the aerospace field and has great potential."
"However, his research ran into a bottleneck due to too little investment, and some problems arose, which in turn led to the failure of Xinghuo's financing. Now many people are eyeing the Xinghuo team. If the boss wants to buy Xinghuo, he has to be quick, otherwise after Dr. Liu's team is poached, it will be useless to buy an empty shell."
Jiang Shan nodded: "I have given a definite answer to the boss of Xinghuo. The acquisition of Xinghuo will be left to you."
Zhang Song nodded: "I will get it done in the shortest time possible."
Then he said, "The press conference is ready. When does the boss plan to hold it?"
Jiang Shan looked at the sky outside the window and said, "Let's do it tomorrow."
On the second day of the second month, the dragon raises its head.
In a certain auditorium in Nantong, the Giant Capital-Red Star Group press conference is about to be held.
Reporters, whose noses are sharper than those of dogs, gathered outside the auditorium early, waiting for the door to open; some companies and groups in related industries with a keen sense of smell also sent people.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the door of the auditorium suddenly opened, and under the watchful eyes of armed police with guns, people entered the auditorium in an orderly manner.
At 9:30, the auditorium with a capacity of more than a thousand people was almost full, and there were rifles and sprints everywhere. Several large online media outlets were allowed to broadcast the event live.
As the door of the auditorium closed, Zhang Song walked up to the podium with brisk steps.
He stood on the stage, pressed the earphones in his ears, said hello a few times, and then said, "Please be quiet!"
After waiting for about ten seconds, the buzzing noise gradually died down, and Zhang Song said, "Hello everyone, I am Zhang Song, the new CEO of Red Star Group and the host of today's press conference."
At this time, several media outlets broadcasting live below were whispering into the camera to introduce Zhang Song's resume to the audience who were rapidly pouring into the live broadcast room.
"Zhang Song, former general manager of a business unit of XCMG, has a technical background, holds a bachelor's degree from Harbin Institute of Technology, a master's degree and a doctorate from the National University of Defense Technology, and a correspondence master's degree in management from Tsinghua University."
On the stage, Zhang Song continued, "The purpose of today's press conference is, first, to announce the future development direction of our Red Star Group and to show the society our epoch-making achievements, and second, to make some reasonable responses to the surging public opinion on the Internet."
After that, Hong Sheng said, "Now please invite the protagonist of today's press conference, Mr. Jiang Shan from Giant Capital, to the stage."
Jiang Shan, dressed in simple casual clothes, walked out from the backstage slowly and nodded to Zhang Song.
Zhang Song made a 'please' gesture and walked to the side.
In the auditorium, there were thousands of people, thousands of pairs of eyes, and tens of millions of viewers pouring into several live broadcast rooms, and countless eyes were on him.
The next moment, hundreds of reporters raised their hands.
Jiang Shan smiled and said, "I originally planned to answer reporters' questions after the new results were released; but since everyone is so enthusiastic, why not reverse the order."
He casually paused, and a reporter in the audience showed surprise and said, "Mr. Jiang, I'm a reporter from Tencent Media. Mr. Jiang, what do you think of the rumors circulating online about you conspiring with certain people to embezzle 4.5 billion yuan in funds, but putting the blame on Du Shaokun and Jiang Yuanpeng?"
Jiang Shan said: "I'll sit and watch."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Then he said, "Your question lacks level. If you don't know, you can search for relevant certificates issued by various official departments. They are all available online."
After saying that, he pointed casually.
Another reporter took the microphone and said, "Mr. Jiang, we understand that you were just a blue-collar worker half a year ago, but suddenly became a stock god who dominated the financial market. What's the secret behind this?"
Jiang Shan pointed to his head: "Genius, understand?"
Next.
"Mr. Jiang, there's been a lot of buzz online about you supporting nearly ten women. Mr. Jiang, why do you do this? Are you objectifying women? Won't your conscience condemn you?"
Jiang Shan heard this and laughed.
Then he pointed with his backhand, and photos of Fan Shengmei, Stella, Fang Sijin, Dai Xi, Shen Mo, Shen Man, Si Qing, Xing Lu, Ming Zhen and even Lin Qing appeared on the big screen behind him.
"Are you talking about them?"
"Of course," the reporter replied.
Jiang Shan nodded. On the big screen, the women's photos were divided into three sequences.
"Fan Shengmei and Fang Sijin are my personal assistants. I am the boss of Giant Capital, with a net worth of tens of billions. It is reasonable for me to hire two personal assistants, right?"
"Dai Xi, Shen Mo, Shen Man, Si Qing, they are my work assistants. As the boss of Giant Capital, I have a lot of things to do every day. It is reasonable to hire four work assistants, right?"
"Ming Zhen and Xing Lu are my private jet flight attendants. I'm the boss of Giant Capital, and I have a private jet. You can't let me drive it myself. This is reasonable, right?"
"Stella and Lin Qing are capable women. I hand over the company to Stella to manage and give investment to Lin Qing. It is essentially the same as my acquisition of Red Star Group now. This is also very reasonable."
The reporter was speechless for a moment.
A reporter nearby asked, "So, how does Mr. Jiang explain the unreasonable contract that was exposed?"
