Chapter 1591: At the Wine Table

"The biggest problem in online shopping at present is the issue of trust. The core of it is naturally the security of funds. From this point of view, it is indeed necessary for us to build a payment platform," said the face in the private room of the Holiday Inn restaurant. With a vice president and several ministers, Li Lin talked eloquently.

"President Sun, let's serve the food first. President Feng said there's really no need to wait for him," Zhou Xingyu said, looking at a few lonely fruit plates on the huge dining table.

"No, we have to wait for Mr. Feng to come," said President Sun, who looked more energetic than the average person in charge of a state-owned enterprise and more calm than the average unit cadre. "It's a rare opportunity to have dinner with Mr. Feng. Mr. Zhou, you always We can’t let people say we don’t understand etiquette,”

"No, no, there's really no need to do this. This is too slight to you, President Sun, ministers, I'll excuse you for a moment," he said.

"No need, Mr. Zhou, just sit down," President Sun smiled and pressed him down on his seat, "I really don't need to call Mr. Feng anymore. What he talks about are all big things, so it's not easy to influence him."

"It's even more important to entertain the leaders of the bank," Li Lin added.

Although she is confident, from her perspective, it is always necessary to have a good relationship with the bank.

"We really don't want you to think this way, Mr. Li. What we hope most is that our two families can cooperate seamlessly," President Sun gestured with his hands, "We hope that every time someone from the industry comes to Jiasheng in the future, they can come to Jiasheng We have working meals in the staff cafeteria, so it doesn’t have to be as formal as it is now,”

"If one day we can reach this level, it will mean that our work has really been done well."

After hearing such true and false words, Zhou Xingyu smiled.

Well, it's not ruled out that banks really think so. If they can have a good relationship with Jiasheng, it will not only be a loan, but also find a big customer for deposits.

For banks, deposits and loans are equally important indicators.

Although these big banks, subjectively speaking, may not be as enthusiastic about collecting savings as they are about running loans, because Chinese people naturally like to save. For big state-owned banks like them, deposits are really not a problem, and loans will be more troublesome.

However, these large state-owned banks, after all, are enterprises, and they will have KPIs, and naturally there will be various indicators to hold down, such as deposit indicators. Naturally, compared with the same period last year, there must be at least two Judging from their size, it is not easy to achieve such an indicator.

But regardless of whether the bank now wants to be as close to GAIN Capital as one family, GAIN Capital is currently resisting such a proposal.

From Feng Yiping on down, Jiaqiang’s executives all have a very clear understanding of banks. Whether they are banks in our country or banks in capitalist society, the essence is the same. They are all the most intuitive manifestations of capitalism. , what they focus on is profit, other than that, all the friendship is just a cloud.

There may be some exceptions for state-owned enterprises and domestic banks, but for private companies like them, there cannot be any exceptions.

Whether they are chasing you for a loan or to collect a loan depends solely on your business conditions.

Even ICBC, with whom it had good cooperation before, the company did not say anything about pursuing a special relationship with them, let alone President Sun and his family.

"Mr. Li is actually right. This is indeed a big deal for us," Director Qian of the Credit Department continued, "Sun Xing and the others are fine. In recent years, the people below us have been really suppressed by various indicators. Scared,"

"Whether it is deposits or loans, the growth rate compared with the same period last year is definitely higher than the GDP growth rate, and it can even grow by 20% or 20%. Under such circumstances, we are really nervous all year round. "

"So, we really hope that Jiaqiang can cooperate with us in terms of loans. Whether it is local currency or foreign currency, it is not a problem,"

"If necessary, we will definitely consider your bank," Li Lin still marked the answer.

Minister Qian couldn't hide his disappointment after hearing this, but he had nothing to do.

At this time, a man with a crew cut pushed open the door of the private room, glanced inside, and nodded coldly to everyone. President Sun was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, "Mr. Feng is coming soon?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Yiping walked in with a smile, "Hello everyone!"

"Mr. Feng," President Sun quickly stood up and stretched out his hands, "I have admired you for a long time,"

"You're welcome, President,"

"Hello, Mr. Feng," Minister Qian, who had a few objections just now in front of Zhou Xingyu and others, was very attentive now. I guess this is his attitude toward their president.

"Mr. Zhou, didn't I ask you to accompany Sun Xing and the others to order food first?" Feng Yiping said, glancing at the empty table.

"Mr. Feng, don't be angry. Don't blame Mr. Zhou. It was us who forced him to not let him order."

President Sun explained.

"President, you are too polite. Let's do it now. Take a look at the menu. It's time to take a supplement. These dishes are actually pretty good..."

…………

The empty table was quickly filled with various delicacies. This is the advantage of dining in your own restaurant.

"Welcome President Sun and all the leaders of the bank to be our guests. We also look forward to receiving your support in related business. I would like to propose a toast to you all," Feng Yiping raised his glass.

It is said to be a cup, but in fact it is just a shallow sip from the bottom of a small glass, which is really symbolic.

But he did it very naturally, and both parties were very adaptable. No one, including President Sun, expressed any objection.

Therefore, rules are meant to be broken.

"Please take a seat, please take a seat," Feng Yiping asked everyone to sit down. "I have never been able to drink, so tonight, let's just do whatever we want. Drink more if you can get along, and eat some food if you can drink less. Whatever makes you feel comfortable. ,How about it?"

"Mr. Feng, this is a good suggestion," President Sun agreed. "I feel a little scared when I sit at such a table."

"Yeah, I feel like I'm in a dilemma at the table, and in the end it's all on me," Feng Yiping said.

"It's just Mr. Feng, after all these years, you have made your business so big, and you really haven't given up your life to accompany you like a gentleman?" Minister Qian asked.

"This is really not the case. When I first started my business, I was still a high school student. I didn't have time to socialize with others. I just had to socialize. Not many people could do such a cruel thing as forcing a high school student to drink," Feng Yiping laughed. Then said.

"Understood, later you reached the age where you could drink. At that time, Jiasheng was already very influential in the country, right? In addition, you published a brilliant masterpiece like "Blue Ocean Strategy", which was world-famous, and there were also not many people. I dare to force you to drink, Mr. Feng, you are really lucky,"

As soon as Minister Qian finished speaking, President Sun immediately refuted him, "Mr. Feng, this is not good luck. It's because he made good decisions. Didn't you see that what Mr. Feng is running is mainly in emerging industries? He is ensuring this from the source. It won’t be like other companies where you can drink at the wine table until your stomach bleeds in order to take orders,”

"Yes, I was wrong," Minister Qian raised his glass with a smile, "Mr. Feng, I respect you, I did it, you can do whatever you want,"

He drank the wine in his glass, which was about three ounces, in one gulp.

Feng Yiping picked up the cup, knocked it on the table, and then took a sip. He had already said what he said, and it was not for him to interfere with what Minister Qian chose to do.

"Mr. Zhou, I respect you." After paying tribute to Feng Yiping, Minister Qian next paid tribute to Zhou Xingyu. "Whether it's a deposit or a loan, Mr. Zhou, you have to think of us."

Minister Qian is still asking for a lap of respect.

This is also a common rule at the wine table. Except for single toasts, one person should generally toast the entire table at least in a circle.

In other words, as long as there is such a person at the table, the entertainment will not be easy.

Zhou Xingyu also stood up, "Minister Qian, I should be the one to respect you. I guess I will cause you trouble in the future..."

Feng Yiping and President Sun each took a spoonful of snow clam soup and chatted in a low voice, "President Sun, our plan for this online payment platform is actually not just for our online mall. We hope that in the future, consumers will use our You can use this to stay in our hotels, dine in our restaurants, shop in our affiliated stores..."

The future arrangements are naturally more than these, but banks are currently doing a lot of business. If they show a tendency to grab business now, it will obviously be detrimental to the cooperation of these banks.

"So, we think this is really a good opportunity to help banks easily get involved in the e-commerce field,"

"Mr. Feng, I believe that what you are determined to do will be successful. Since you said that this payment platform is beneficial to the bank, I believe it must be,"

"I think of at least two benefits, one is that it reduces the workload, especially for our frontline tellers; two, it reduces the use of cash, right,"

Feng Yiping gave a thumbs up, "Mr. Sun's eyes are really bright,"

"Mr. Feng was joking, but there is a big difference between domestic and foreign countries. At this stage, the use of our credit cards is only a small number, and most people use debit cards, which involves a fund security issue,"

Anyone who knows anything can hear the evasiveness in his words. Feng Yiping glanced at him and saw that President Sun was dedicated to the public and upright.

Feng Yiping nodded. He had never cooperated before, so the conversation was not smooth.

Just as he was about to speak, Wu Qian knocked on the door and came in. She said a few words in his ear, "I'm sorry, everyone, I'll excuse you." Feng Yiping wiped his mouth with a napkin and stood up.

"If Mr. Feng has something to do, please do it first," said President Sun.

Feng Yiping took a look and saw that Minister Qian was just toasting to Li Lin. She seemed to have encountered some obstacles.

"Minister Qian, I am indeed a teetotaler, so why don't you drink juice as well? I'd like to pay you a compliment," Li Lin said.

This is not the first time she has encountered such a thing. With her status, it is true that there are very few people who make things difficult for her, but today seems to be an exception, especially since Feng Yiping is not present.

"Mr. Feng, we won't talk anymore, but Mr. Li, you have to give me some face," Minister Qian said with a smile as he watched the door of the box close again.

Of course, the next sentence is more polite, "Well, according to the rules, I have three cups and you have one cup, okay?"

"Sorry, Minister Qian, I really don't know how to drink," Li Lin still didn't let go, and she had no intention of letting go.

Everyone who has been to the wine table understands the truth. Either you don't drink at all, and nothing will happen to you.

But if you are touched by wine, even if it is just a sip, then you will be completely unable to refuse other people's toasts.

"Then let me have a drink. Mr. Li, you can do whatever you want," Minister Qian said.

"Feel sorry……,"

There was a stalemate at the table. Several men on Jiasheng's side said, "Minister Qian, I'll drink on Mr. Li's behalf."

But even if they said that Minister Qian would only drink one cup and drink three cups on behalf of Li Lin, Minister Qian still disagreed.

Everyone could see that this drinking was not really drinking.

Zhou Xingyu glanced at President Sun and found that President Sun was discussing something with a subordinate beside him in a low voice. He looked like he had not seen or heard the excitement at the table at all. He picked up the wine glass and said, "Minister Qian, I will drink on behalf of General Manager Li. I will drink three cups and you will drink one cup. Okay?"

Minister Qian smiled and said, "General Manager Zhou, I believe that in daily work, General Manager Li will definitely be able to complete her work without your worry. I also believe that she will be able to handle it herself at the wine table."

It turned out that he didn't even give Zhou Xingyu face.

Now, Zhou Xingyu, who was so graceful, looked a little unhappy for a while.

At this time, the door of the box was pushed open again, and Feng Yiping walked in with a smile, "Haha, it's still so lively,"

"General Manager Feng, General Manager Li didn't cooperate with my work tonight," Minister Qian said with a smile.

But he stopped laughing halfway, and his face turned red, just like he had drunk three bottles of 62-proof Erguotou at once.

President Sun was talking to his subordinates, and he looked at Feng Yiping with a puzzled smile, but when he saw the person behind him, he stood up immediately.
