After hanging up the phone, Lu Feng looked exhausted. He had always been quite lenient with senior management. They had a lot of decision-making power over projects, and as long as the general direction was correct, Lu Feng generally wouldn't interfere.
However, the internal faction is clearly dominated by the three veterans: Zhu Lidong, Liu Cheng, and Wei Yandan. Originally, Lu Feng handed over the mobile phone business to Du Guoying in the hope of balancing things out and accumulating some experience for the future.
I didn't expect him to still be so young and impatient, so eager to make money and get ahead. But thinking about it, I can understand. Going to work is also for making money. Lu Feng does have some idealism, but you can't expect everyone to have that kind of spirit.
Lu Feng knew that after returning to the mainland to rebuild the factory, the rotating president system would still be implemented, as it was the best way to prevent internal factions from forming and abusing power.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Lu Feng really couldn't hold on any longer and went back to his bedroom to fall asleep immediately. He hadn't experienced any insomnia during this period.
The matter of Lu Feng wanting to obtain another five billion US dollars in foreign exchange has been reported, and everyone is discussing it intensely. Some people believe that it must not be touched, because if this matter is leaked, it will be a crisis for the country.
Some people believe that the move should be made if necessary, as there is no problem with domestic grain reserves, and that delaying the matter will only cause more serious problems.
The two sides argued endlessly, with some expressing dissatisfaction with Lu Feng, believing that it was inappropriate to entrust this matter to a businessman like him, especially since Lu Feng had also invested his own funds, which could easily lead to the loss of state-owned assets.
Lu Feng had some understanding of some domestic experts, so before investing his own funds, he wrote a statement about the use of funds and submitted it.
Lu Feng never profits a single penny from his own funds. All interest generated from external loans and bridge loans is paid by him personally. Every transaction in Hong Kong dollars is recorded, all surveillance videos from the exchanges are kept on file, and all daily phone calls are recorded for easy access at any time.
Even so, people still keep talking about how Lu Feng insisted on going home to rest every day to avoid being monitored.
Lu Feng had also considered living in the apartment together, but Hurricane Capital was at a critical juncture. If it could be finished in a month, that would be great. But if it dragged on for a year like in his previous life, the company would probably fall apart by the time he got out.
Special approval was requested for this matter!
Unable to make a decision on such a significant matter, they could only report it to higher authorities. That afternoon, they spoke with the leaders of the People's Bank of China and ultimately decided to talk to Lu Feng to ask him what he thought.
Around 4 p.m., Lu Feng was woken up by the nanny, who told him that he had an important phone call to take.
Lu Feng first answered a call from a leader of the People's Bank of China on a landline. After talking for more than ten minutes, they asked Lu Feng not to hang up, as they would transfer the call to an internal line.
After a few minutes, the call connected, and a slightly deep voice came from the other end: "Lu Feng, hello!"
"Hello!" Lu Feng replied.
“I already know about the situation. This is a very important matter. I still want to hear your thoughts, your assessment of the current situation of the Hong Kong dollar.” The person on the other end of the phone asked, “How much funding have been raised so far?”
“If this 5 billion comes in, we’ll raise about 19 billion US dollars!” Lu Feng replied.
"The daily interest on these funds must be a lot of money, right?" the person on the other end of the phone asked, sounding slightly surprised.
"It is expected to take two days and will require interest payments of more than two hundred million US dollars, which I will personally bear. The current financial situation is that the amount of funds on both sides is about the same. The other party's main tactic is to short the market and then leave with profits. During this period of low prices, they have entered a large amount of funds and cannot withdraw them!"
"They're assessing our financial situation in order to escape with their funds. Since the two sides are evenly matched, they'll have a sense of complacency and keep increasing their bets. This will put a lot of pressure on our finances. So now we need a huge sum of money, enough to make them give up and force them to admit defeat and surrender!" Lu Feng explained earnestly.
The person on the other end of the phone laughed and said, "This is like catching a rabbit in the countryside. You've already caught the rabbit by the leg, and you're afraid it will struggle and break the rope. You need a stick to make it obediently accept its fate!"
"Your explanation is very vivid!" Lu Feng said with a smile.
"Since you're so confident, here's a stick for you!" The person on the other end of the phone agreed.
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng finally felt relieved. After exchanging a few polite words, he hung up the phone, reported the situation, and said he would submit the weekly report on Sunday.
After finishing up with the Hong Kong dollar matters, Lu Feng called Wei Yandan to have dinner together that evening to discuss the company's situation and, incidentally, Du Guoying's matter.
During dinner, Su Yourong called to ask if she was busy lately, as they hadn't seen each other for a while. Lu Feng replied that she didn't have time and that she wasn't allowed to contact outsiders right now.
Su Yourong asked when she would have time, and Lu Feng told her it was a secret before hanging up the phone.
Su Yourong called again but didn't answer. Frustrated, she smashed the phone. There was a medical report on the table. She hadn't been to the company lately and was completely indifferent to the company's stock price.
She goes to bed early and gets up early every day, eats a balanced diet, and looks much more energetic. She has also gained a little weight and has become more charming.
In the past few days, the equity changes of the three shareholders of United Capital have been completed. Su Yourong learned that Lu Feng directly bought 23% of the shares, and she knew in her heart that she had completely lost control of United Capital.
