Du Shaojie worked until 9 o'clock, and all the dishes were sold out.
Afterwards, he, Liu Zijian and Sun Zhenguo returned to the courtyard first, and Zou Xiaohe was left to clean up the mess.
"Mr. Liu, Mr. Sun, why did you come early?"
There was ice beer at home, and Du Shaojie sat in the yard with the two of them, drinking and chatting.
"As a sponsor of the Olympics, we have several events to participate in before the opening ceremony, so we came a little early. Mr. Du, the company's performance has grown rapidly this year, especially the mobile phone business has grown the most."
Liu Zijian explained, with a strong sense of showing off in his words.
Since the fourth quarter of last year, the performance of [Huanyu Communications] has soared sharply.
This is first of all due to the rapid development of the company's mobile phone business. It is estimated that this year's revenue and profits will both double.
Secondly, the walkie-talkies produced by the company have performed well in the international market, bringing considerable profits to the company.
"Boss Liu, although our Su has achieved some success, we still need to be modest. Look at Boss Du, as a leader in the domestic catering industry, he is very low-key, but now he has come out to set up a stall?"
Sun Zhenguo followed up with a sentence, and Du Shaojie almost spit out the beer he had just drunk.
Liu Zijian then laughed out loud, and the two guys sang in unison, which was quite joyful.
"You guys! How is the company's stock price trend recently?"
Du Shaojie was amused by this guy, and changed the subject and asked about the stock price of [Huanyu Communications].
He usually doesn't care about these specific matters, but he happened to meet the two people today, so he asked casually.
"I was just about to tell you that the company's stock price has been rising wildly recently, rising 57% in just one month, which makes us a little confused."
In the eyes of Liu Zijian and Sun Zhenguo, the company's stock price changes are both important and unimportant.
Neither of them has the need to cash out, and the temporary rise and fall of the stock price is meaningless.
Du Shaojie nodded, but didn't delve into it. The market during this period is still okay, and there are so many stocks that have risen, so there is nothing to worry about.
The three chatted until midnight, when Liu Zijian and Sun Zhenguo got up to say goodbye.
Du Shaojie asked Wei Qi to take the two to the hotel. He had several exclusive cars in Beijing, but the other party did not.
The next day.
Du Shaojie got up in the morning to deal with some official business, and Luo Qin walked into the study to report something to him.
"Boss, the increase in MD Electric Appliances in recent months is not normal. There is a big fund stirring up trouble. According to monitoring, this part of the funds is likely to be related to [Hongsheng Investment]."
This news has not been effectively confirmed, but the subordinates know that the boss attaches great importance to [Hongsheng Investment], so they still reported the matter.
Du Shaojie thought about it and made a decision.
"Assistant Luo, call General Manager Yu and ask her if she has time to come to Beijing recently."
He planned to sell MD Electric Appliances' stocks. His subordinates would not make random guesses. He estimated that the authenticity of this news was about 80%.
Even if the judgment was wrong, it didn't matter. At this stage, there was only benefit and no harm in recovering more cash.
In the past few months, both [Dingxin International] and [Huaxin Investment] have basically stopped foreign investment, and their operations are mainly based on withdrawing cash.
In view of the growing subprime mortgage crisis on the other side of the ocean, he also adheres to the concept of "cash is king".
It's just that the MD Electric shares held by Du Shaojie are a bit special. I think he and Yu Mo got this part of the shares together. Later, after the distribution of shares, there are quite a few shares in hand.
If he wants to sell, he must reach an agreement with Yu Mo.
It's not convenient to talk about this kind of thing on the phone. It's best for the two of them to meet. If Yu Mo can come, it would be the best. If the other party can't come, he will take time to go to Shenzhen.
"Okay, boss."
Luo Qin then called Yu Mo according to Du Shaoji's instructions. The other party said that she happened to be free these two days and she would choose an opportunity to come to Beijing.
In the afternoon.
Du Shaojie went to the food street as usual.
During this period, he simply didn't want to make a breakthrough. Anyway, he just tried his best to make every dish well and make customers eat comfortably. These days he has found the feeling he had at the beginning. The compliments from customers every day bring him great joy.
After all, he prefers this simple life to business matters.
In the evening.
There was a long line in front of Du Shaojie's stall again, and there were many foreigners among them.
His stall is now famous in the food street, attracting not only a large number of Chinese but also a large number of foreigners.
However, he has an unwritten rule, that is, taking pictures is not allowed, and other exchanges are easy to talk about.
"Sir, your cooking skills are great! The dishes you cook are the best Chinese food I have ever eaten."
At this moment, Du Shaojie was busy. A white man and a translator came up and started chatting with Du Shaojie.
Du Shaojie smiled and shook his head, indicating that he was cooking and asked the other party to wait a moment.
After about half an hour, he completed today's task and walked aside to rest.
The white man followed him and first praised the Chinese food, then asked: "Have you ever thought about developing in North America? Really, with your skills, you will definitely make a lot of money there."
"Thank you! I'm not interested in making a lot of money, and I don't plan to leave my motherland. Sorry."
Du Shaojie refused with a smile. With his current wealth, of course he can say "I'm not interested in money" with confidence.
Although it's a bit hateful, it's true, otherwise why would he set up a stall here?
"That's a pity!"
The white man just said this casually, and then Du Shaojie talked to the other party about Sichuan cuisine, and the man said goodbye and left with a tactful look.
"Boss, your cooking skills have conquered foreigners, don't you feel a sense of accomplishment?"
Luo Qin was standing aside just now. The other party had an interpreter, so she acted as the boss's interpreter.
It's not that Du Shaojie didn't understand at all. In fact, he also mastered simple conversations, but he was too lazy to communicate with the other party in English.
"Of course, there's nothing wrong with letting these foreigners see our food culture. As for conquering foreigners, I haven't really thought about it."
Du Shaojie shook his head, as if he didn't want to continue this topic.
Chinese people are warm and hospitable. Even if the mainland is not rich now, they are willing to show their best side.
But not every foreigner who comes to China has good intentions, and he won't take some things too seriously. Again, this is just a window to show Chinese food, and there is no other attribute besides this.
After listening, Luo Qin seemed to understand.
Half past eight.
All the food for today was sold out. Du Shaojie and others packed up and returned to the courtyard.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Qi Yan coming out of the house.
She had nothing to do today, so she thought of coming over to accompany Du Shaojie, but she didn't expect that he would come back quite early.
"Hubby, you really still like this simple life. I brought some stewed food here, and we can have a couple of drinks later."
When Qi Yan was talking, Du Shaojie noticed that she was still wearing an apron.
She was cutting stewed food just now, and she came out to take a look when she heard the noise.
Later.
A small square table was set up in the yard, and it was filled with all kinds of stewed food.
Zou Xiaohe brought out a box of beer from the house. Except for Wei Qi and Yang Hao, everyone else sat down to drink and chat. Wei Qi, as a driver, needed to be on call at any time, and Yang Hao needed to be alert.
Du Shaojie and Qi Yan were very nice to everyone around them. If there were no outsiders present, everyone would often sit together for dinner.
At this time, his private phone rang, and Li Yimei answered it immediately, and then said, "Boss, General Manager Yu has arrived in Beijing."
"Is she here now? Ask her where she is, and I'll ask Xiao Wei to pick her up right away."
Du Shaojie had just contacted Yu Mo in the morning, and the other party said that he would come over in the next two days, but he didn't expect that he would arrive in Beijing in the evening.
Li Yimei asked quickly, and Yu Mo said that she and several partners had just finished dinner, so she could come over by herself without sending anyone to pick her up.
40 minutes later.
Yu Mo walked into the yard.
"You two are quite elegant, sitting here drinking beer late at night."
Yu Mo was no stranger to Qi Yan, and sat down at the small table after coming in.
Zou Xiaohe and others had already dispersed, and Luo Qin made a pot of tea and sent it over.
Yu Mo shook her head and glanced at Du Shaojie, who understood immediately and handed her a can of beer.
"You guys chat, I'll make two calls."
Qi Yan drank a can of beer with Yu Mo, and then found an excuse to leave the yard. She knew that the two must have something to talk about, so she quickly made room for them.
Yu Mo quietly gave Du Shaojie a thumbs up, meaning that he had found a good wife.
"Mo Mo, I plan to sell the shares of MD Electric Appliances, what do you think?"
Du Shaojie didn't say anything, and then got to the point.
"Why? We have held MD's stock for many years, you have to give me a clear reason."
Yu Mo didn't care whether to sell the stock or not, she was just curious about what the other party was thinking.
"I suspect that [Hongsheng Investment] has quietly intervened in MD's stock. You are very clear about the grudge between me and the other party. I will definitely not be soft-handed if I get the chance. In addition, I am not optimistic about the economic situation in the next two years."
Du Shaojie said very directly. The subprime mortgage crisis in North America will usher in a big outbreak this year, and the outlook for the stock market is not very good.
The key is that he can't let [Hongsheng Investment] succeed. He has no temper if he can't find any clues of the other party, but once he has doubts, he would rather kill the wrong person than let him go.
"Okay, you decide."
After holding MD Electric's stock for so many years, the original investment has increased many times. Yu Mo thinks it's okay to sell it at any time.
She is not a professional investor, but a real entrepreneur, and she doesn't care too much about this matter.
Du Shaojie nodded and said no more.
Yu Mo sat for a while, made an appointment with the other party to have lunch together tomorrow at noon, and then got up to say goodbye. She will stay in Beijing for a few more days. There are several big clients here who have been cooperating with her and need to discuss some things.
Du Shaojie went to wash up and was about to go to bed when he suddenly received a call from Feng Qingsong.
He still thought it was quite strange. The other party rarely took the initiative to call him, not to mention that it was so late.
Feng Qingsong didn't say anything on the phone, just asked him to go to his place after work tomorrow morning.
Du Shaojie didn't ask, but he knew in his heart that something must have happened, and it was a big thing.
The next day.
Du Shaojie came to Feng Qingsong's office as promised.
Although Feng Qingsong has retired from the front line now, he still serves as the chairman of the committee, and the working environment is not bad.
"Shaojie, you have been fighting with Yin Qiang for these years. Do you have any evidence of the other party's illegal crimes?"
Feng Qingsong still adhered to his previous style and got straight to the point when they met.
When Du Shaojie heard him say this, he immediately had a guess in his heart. Could it be that Yin Qiang, the bastard, is going to be in trouble?
To be honest, Yin Qiang is not a big threat to him now, after all, the power behind him is not as strong as before. But if there is a chance to add insult to injury, he is still willing to do so.
"Yes! Including Yin Qiang's import and export of goods through secret channels, large amounts of funds flowing out of the mainland privately, illegal operation of karaoke bars, etc."
Du Shaojie and Feng Qingsong did not need to hide anything. He got a lot of black material about Yin Qiang through Wang Yongli, Chen Ji and Peng Yongjun, so he told the other party on the spot.
"Okay! The relevant departments are now investigating Yin Qiang's karaoke bar. There is evidence that the problems there are shocking. By the way, you also invested in KTV karaoke bars before. You didn't do anything illegal, right?"
Feng Qingsong patted the armrest of the chair lightly. After revealing a piece of news to Du Shaojie, he asked a special question.
Du Shaojie understood it immediately. The other party meant that Yin Qiang should not be able to jump around for a few days, and the net is closing in.
In addition, it is also a hint to Du Shaojie that any evidence of illegal activities should not fall into Yin Qiang's hands.
"The karaoke bar was sold to Yin Qiang a long time ago. We operated the business in accordance with the law at that time and never got involved in anything that we shouldn't have. So, leader, I will sort out the relevant evidence after I go back and send it back."
Du Shaojie explained, and then immediately expressed his opinion.
Feng Qingsong finally smiled and said, "Okay, then hand it over to me as soon as possible."
He has helped Du Shaojie many times, not only him, but also Lin Zhiyuan, Jiang Cheng, etc. Most of them have offended the forces behind Yin Qiang because of Du Shaojie.
Now is the time to beat the fallen dog, and no one will be soft-hearted.
"No problem!"
Du Shaojie then said goodbye and left. He had lunch with Yu Mo at noon, and when he got home, he found all the evidence he had collected.
In the afternoon.
He was still preparing to set up the stall in the evening as usual, while Zou Xiaohe quietly handed the sealed document bag to Feng Qingsong.
Just three days later, a joint operation was carried out in various places, and all KTV karaoke halls of Yin Qiang in the mainland were closed down in one fell swoop.
At the same time, the police also destroyed several secret warehouses of Yin Qiang in the south and seized a large number of contraband items. The famous "Yin Shao" was arrested, and the corporate empire built by the other party collapsed.
Some of the people who once surrounded Yin Qiang fled, and some went in to accompany Yin Qiang.
"It's a pity that [Hongsheng Investment] escaped."
Du Shaojie felt a little regretful. [Hongsheng Investment] moved to Hong Kong a few years ago, and there were several layers of vests.
It can be imagined that a considerable part of Yin Qiang's funds quietly flowed abroad through the channels of [Hongsheng Investment]. Although the enemy has come back to kill us, they are professionals and there is no trace of them on the surface. (End of this chapter)
