Chapter 138: Chapter 0138: Borrowing Two Billion
"Xie Nanyong?" Chu Ge muttered to himself. He had long suspected that this guy was problematic, but he didn’t expect things to come to a head so suddenly.
"How much has been leaked?" Chu Ge didn’t understand a single digit or symbol on the screen; after all, he had never learned anything about business. He could only ask Mu Bingtong directly.
"A lot!" Mu Bingtong sighed, her brows tightly knitted together: "Financial status, personnel arrangements, core materials, future development plans, almost all of them have been stolen. Most importantly, Xie Nanyong had previously invested all of the company’s liquid funds into construction projects under various pretexts. Since these plans were approved by the board of directors, I couldn’t stop them."
"What’s the situation now?"
"Major companies are manipulating the liquid funds to aggressively drive down our company’s stock price, and some of the construction bases have also been sabotaged by the other party." Mu Bingtong stared intently at the large screen in front of her and spoke softly, "This is a war of money, and the ridiculous thing is that our company’s internal liquid funds amount to less than fifty million."
"Is it serious?"
"Of course!" Mu Bingtong glanced at Chu Ge, "If we fail, the company’s stock price will plummet, and all the construction bases will encounter problems. That means Jinxiu Group will fall apart in an instant!"
When she said this, a worried expression couldn’t help but show on Mu Bingtong’s pretty face, as the Jinxiu Group was the culmination of her many years of hard work.
"President Mu, they’ve started!" Just then, someone with a headset operating the screens suddenly turned and spoke.
Mu Bingtong’s expression changed, and she quickly walked over to get a closer look at the screen: "What’s the situation?"
"Exactly as you predicted," said the man with the headset, speaking rapidly while looking at the screen. "The other party started by investing a large amount of money, buying up all of our company’s publicly traded stocks, and combined with the shares previously held by Manager Xie... Xie Nanyong and Xie Bi’en, it’s already a large amount. Their next step will likely be dumping these stocks en masse to lower the price. After a few rounds of this, the company’s stock price will nose-dive."
"By then, it will be time for the other party to target the construction bases," added another person nearby.
"Prepare the funds." Mu Bingtong took a deep breath, "As soon as they start to sell, we’ll buy immediately."
"But..." the man with the headset hesitated, a troubled look on his face, "I just checked, and our company’s account currently has only about thirty-seven million in liquid funds... We can only buy a small portion, which won’t have much of an impact on the overall situation."
"I’ll figure something out for the money!"
While Mu Bingtong said this, she was actually just trying to keep everyone’s spirits up. Businessmen prioritize profit, and during such times, borrowing money wouldn’t generate any profit, it might even lead to losses. The best outcome would be to save Jinxiu Group; the worst, naturally, would be to lose all the money.
Who would lend money under such circumstances?
"Approximately how much funding is needed?"
"Ten billion!" The man with the headset calculated for a few seconds before revealing a figure.
He glanced at Mu Bingtong and continued to explain: "Obviously, stocks are not the only means the other party has; the construction bases will inevitably be hit as well. That’s why the figure is so large, because it won’t just affect the stock market!"
The entire conference room fell silent. Ten billion!
At its zenith, Jinxiu Group might have been able to muster that kind of liquid funding, but now...
At this moment, many people had already contemplated resigning early. After all, when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. Resigning early, one might still be able to get this month’s salary.
And Mu Bingtong could only offer a wry smile as she slowly sat down in her chair.
"President Mu!"
Eventually, a younger-looking man came forward, not daring to meet Mu Bingtong’s eyes.
"Resigning, huh?" However, Mu Bingtong had already guessed what he wanted to say and asked directly.
"I..." The young man raised his head abruptly, opened his mouth, and in the end, could only let it drop weakly, nodding: "I’m sorry, but, President Mu, after all, the situation is quite clear now!"
Indeed, given the current situation, unless a miracle happened, Jinxiu Group was unlikely to survive this ordeal.
But miracles... often only exist in the most beautiful of hopes, and this, this was reality!
With one person taking the lead, others began to stir, and in just a few minutes, more than half of the people had taken their resignation reports and left the conference room.
Looking at the less than ten people who remained standing below, Mu Bingtong waved her hand helplessly, "Since everyone else has left, why are you still here?"
"President Mu!"
An older man in his forties, dressed in a suit, glanced at Mu Bingtong and smiled, "I had nothing in Shanghai before, and it was President Mu who saw potential in me and brought me into Jinxiu Group, giving me a high position. Now that the group is in trouble, how could I just leave? If worse comes to worst, we’ll just start over!"
"That’s right, no matter the outcome, we should at least give it a shot and see!"
Mu Bingtong couldn’t help but nod, feeling a warmth in her eyes as she looked at the few who remained.
Chu Ge, however, flashed a bit of a smile in his eyes, and whispered in Mu Bingtong’s ear, "Looking at it this way, it seems to be a good thing, at least all the parasites have been weeded out."
Hearing Chu Ge’s words, Mu Bingtong gave a wry smile and shook her head.
The tree was about to fall; what use was it to weed out the parasites now?
"I’ll make a phone call." Chu Ge patted Mu Bingtong’s shoulder and walked out of the conference room.
......
In the Tianrui Bank’s General Manager’s office, Zhao Wuji was staring blankly at an oil painting when the phone on his desk suddenly rang.
He picked up the phone, and when he saw the caller ID, a look of surprise flashed across his face. He still answered the call, however, and quickly adopted a smiling expression: "Mr. Chu, what brings you to call me?"
"In Shanghai, you’re the richest, so after much consideration, I thought it best to come to you," Chu Ge said with a laugh.
In Shanghai, the Four Great Families were undoubtedly the most powerful, but if you were talking about wealth, no one could surpass Zhao Wuji! After all, Tianrui Bank was the top bank in Shanghai, and moreover, it had a large number of branches nationwide and even overseas.
"Oh?" Zhao Wuji raised his eyebrow, chuckling, "From what Mr. Chu is saying, it seems like you want to discuss a matter of money with Mr. Zhao here?"
"Yes, a loan," Chu Ge stated directly.
Zhao Wuji fell silent for a moment: "How much?"
"Two billion!"
