Chapter 332: Competition
In a villa area in the south of Qingyang, Li Feifan, the owner of the Royal Shark Fin Hotel, sat behind his desk in the study, listening to the reports of several department managers in front of him.
"The current financial situation of the group is very tight. This kind of high-intensity subsidy will only drag our company into a financial vortex. I think we must stop this kind of subsidy as soon as possible and return to rationality as soon as possible." The manager of the asset department said.
"We believe that the current shareholders still support our approach, and our stock price has begun to rise recently. Since the restrictions on Sangong consumption, our stock price has been sluggish. Although the stock price has been raised through repurchases and other means, the effect has not been satisfactory. , The mood of the shareholders is also relatively fluctuating, and many people have suggested that we change careers, and what Master Li Chenggong has done now actually meets the needs of the shareholders."
"These shareholders just hope that the stock price will rise and sell off. Do you think they really care about the company's operations?" The manager of the asset department sneered. The asset department and the investment department sound similar in name. There are two completely different departments. The people in the asset department tend to be more rational and conservative, while the managers in the investment department are more aggressive. They can let go for the sake of profit. "Stable cash flow is more important to the company's operations. If our The capital chain has become tense, and it is almost impossible to restructure."
Li Feifan sat on the boss chair, frowning.
Now, all kinds of Internet have eroded the offline economy, and the profits of the offline economy have been eroded to the point where it is almost unsustainable.
In this country, doing business is always so much trouble.
Still under the shadow of the economic downturn, it was hit by the Internet industry again.
Many people who are real people have worked hard for half their lives, and a group of nouveau riche who have not speculated and hoarded land earn a lot in a year.
But now those who do services have worked hard for many years, and none of the Internet product releases have made as much money.
The old ways of making money no longer work, and there is no need for sour grapes to say that bad money drives out good money. The world has its own laws of development, and it will naturally make a choice.
The two managers are still arguing desperately, insisting on their own opinions, and neither can persuade the other.
"If you think Master Li Chenggong's approach is not successful, what's your solution? Why don't we switch to mobile phones?"
"Transitioning to a mobile phone is more reliable than competing for subsidies with those rich and powerful Internet bosses!"
Seeing the endless arguments between the two sides, Li Feifan felt a headache. The catering empire he built was once so brilliant, but now it has become a thing of the past.
Layout of the Internet, start of Internet +, transformation of big data... All kinds of roads have been traversed by people. Facts have proved that they lack the Internet gene and the speed of the Internet, and they are always unsuccessful.
But now, Li Feifan was really tired.
He didn't want to continue to toss it any longer, maybe it was a correct choice to retreat bravely now.
At least he can be a rich man happily. Anyway, his money now is enough to spend in several lifetimes.
It may also be a good way to throw away these current drags, start from scratch, and invest in some other industries.
"Okay, stop arguing. Li Chenggong will continue to let him toss. It would be better if he can succeed, but if he can't..."
Li Feifan has no children. Although he has a bad relationship with his elder brother, he actually has a crush on this nephew in his heart. Even if he is given some money, let him make trouble.
Moreover, the kind of spice he tossed out, Li Chenggong actually had a lot of ideas.
If it really doesn't work, then just throw away the bloated catering industry and transform to produce that special spice.
Thinking of this, Li Feifan asked: "The last time you said you wanted to buy our Qingyang headquarters, how did the talks go?"
In fact, several investors have taken a fancy to their land and company, but they are only interested in people and land, not their brand at all.
In the past, Li Feifan would never consider separating his property rights from his brand, but now it seems that he can no longer hesitate too much.
"Uh..." The two managers looked at each other, and they could see the regret in each other's eyes. They fought so fiercely that it actually made the hero of yesterday think of quitting.
As the saying goes, the emperor and the courtiers, if Li Feifan sells the land and leaves, what will they do?
Do you still expect the new boss to give them the same position and salary?
"We have contacted them once, but their funds have not yet arrived, and they are only interested." Asset Manager Jiqi Ai said, "Now our stock price is rising again, so we have not contacted them again."
Li Feifan hummed, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
At this moment, Li Feifan's secretary suddenly rushed in and said to Li Feifan: "Chairman, it's not good! Master Li Chenggong has been detained!"
"What?" Li Feifan sat up suddenly, "What's going on? Let the people from the legal department go over!"
"Uh, the people from the legal department have already gone..." the secretary said.
"The people from the Ministry of Justice have gone, how can Cheng Cheng be arrested?" Li Feifan was shocked. In Qingyang, he really didn't have much to settle. fished out.
"This..." The secretary didn't know exactly what happened, and she didn't know how to answer when she heard the words.
Li Feifan frowned, picked up the phone, and called the manager of the legal department. After a few words, he was shocked: "What? A claim of 30 million dollars? Deliberate damage to other people's property? What exactly did he hit? Isn’t it so expensive? What? Is it a toy car? Nonsense!”
The corners of Li Feifan's eyes twitched, this is to see me, Li Feifan, fall into Pingyang, isn't it?
Li Feifan started his business in Qingyang and radiated several surrounding cities, but his foundation is still in Qingyang, especially in the high-tech zone, where he has the deepest foundation.
But after the Qichen incident, the entire high-tech zone has almost completely new personnel. Li Feifan said that he is a tiger in Pingyang, which is actually quite appropriate.
Li Feifan hung up the phone, waited quietly for a while, finally gritted his teeth, and called Li Chenggong's father, his eldest brother, Li Zhuozhuo.
The two brothers have a bad relationship and don't have much contact with each other, but how can Li Zhuoyue not care about this kind of thing? After receiving the call, Li Zhuoyue was silent for a moment, and said, "Let me figure out a solution for this."
Although Li Zhuoyue was not in the police, he was an official after all, and his circle of connections was different from Li Feifan's circle, and the people he came into contact with were all higher-end.
When he hung up the phone, Li Zhuoyue was filled with anger. In his impression, although his son Li Chenggong was a bit snobbish, he was still a good boy and would never do such a thing as deliberately bumping into someone.
He was in contact with Li Feifan, and Li Zhuoyue knew about it, but he didn't want to interfere with his son's life, so he didn't ask more questions, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen in such a short time.
Li Zhuozhuo felt in his heart that Li Feifan had spoiled Li Chenggong, but he didn't know that Li Chenggong actually destroyed himself because of his wisdom and authority to inflate himself.
How could he ignore his son's accident? He made a series of phone calls, but encountered inexplicable resistance.
The next day, news of the incident spread, and Royal Shark Fin Hotel's share price plummeted. (To be continued.)
