Chapter 191 Buying Maotai
Ye Sheng came to Hong Dadu's house.
The cooperation between the National Integrated Circuit Industry Fund and Li Yuan was led by Hong Dadu.
Hong Dadu looks fat and young.
He is in his sixties, but he is very energetic.
After all, there is no pressure and the pension is high.
He was quite happy about Ye Sheng's arrival. After all, he had a close relationship with the Ye family, and Ye Sheng was also a descendant that the Ye family valued more in recent years.
It’s not that he admires Ye Sheng that much, but the current third generations are not that good.
For example, Yu Chenguang, who had high expectations but poor skills, got himself into trouble.
Hou Wenbin is not much better than Ye Sheng and is still just living a lazy life.
At least Ye Sheng has a proper job and will have good opportunities in the future.
These old guys have talked about it and said that three generations have been like this, and the fourth generation will only be worse.
Today, Hong Dadu also invited Hou Zhenguo.
After the meeting, Ye Sheng behaved quite well. He was polite and humble towards his elders.
However, after dinner, when they were about to chat, Ye Sheng began to talk about his difficulties.
He said that he was being targeted at Qingtian Capital, Yu Yue pointed at his nose and cursed him, and even the traders gave him a cold shoulder.
He didn't dare to say that Li Yuan was also targeting him, he just said that Li Yuan didn't care about the matter, he couldn't get in touch with him no matter how hard he tried, and since he came, Li Yuan didn't go to the company at all.
Finally, he even showed the report data to the two elders, trying to gain persuasiveness for what he said.
After seeing the report, Hong Dadu and Hou Zhenguo's jaws almost dropped to the ground.
In just a few days, we're only a short distance from liquidation?
The data doubling for two consecutive days made them gasp.
"Grandpa Hong, I have great respect for Li Yuan and want to have a good relationship with him, but he really doesn't give me a chance. I don't even know how I offended him. I have always been conscientious and I will never delay even a second in doing anything he asks me to do."
Hong Dadu said with a smile: "Ye Sheng, according to what you said, you have done a good job. Maybe Li Yuan has encountered some troubles recently. Just do your own work honestly from now on. When Li Yuan is done, you will naturally go to the company."
Ye Sheng was anxious and said, "But when Yao Yingsong was here, the data was amazing every day. I haven't had any performance since the first day I took over. Even if there is a 3-5 percentage point increase, it will be fine. Now I don't know how to explain it to my boss every day."
Hong Dadu and Hou Zhenguo looked at each other and both understood the meaning of Ye Sheng's words.
On the surface, he didn't dare to mention Li Yuan's problem, but in fact, every word he said was blaming Li Yuan.
But how dare this guy?
Li Yuan is free to do whatever he wants.
If Li Yuan is targeting you, it only means that Li Yuan is stingy, but it does not affect his ability.
Just lower your posture.
If Li Yuan is not targeting you on purpose, then he really has something to do or has other ideas. A person who can make more than 40 billion in three days, does he need to work according to your wishes?
If you had that ability, would you still be in your current status and position?
Ye Sheng’s positioning of himself is too vague.
Hou Zhenguo thought that his eldest grandson Hou Wenbin was the same. He had accomplished nothing, but he always thought he was very capable and expressed his opinions to everyone.
In fact, what else does he have besides a good family?
If you are not good at literature, you will not be good at martial arts.
He has no ability and is unable to humble himself, so he is always floating in the air.
Human beings cannot gain any strength if they are not grounded.
Without support, there is no way to truly ascend to heaven.
Floating? It only means that you are full of anger and will be ruined if someone pokes you.
Anyway, Ye Sheng is not their child, so they won’t preach to him.
If Hou Wenbin said these words, Hou Zhenguo would slap him in the face.
Hong Dadu said: "Ye Sheng, you just need to tell your leader the truth."
Ye Sheng hurriedly said, "I told you the truth. Without Li Yuan's leadership, it won't work. The company's traders all have bad resumes and get angry easily. Four of them asked for leave at once, and I, the general manager, didn't even know about it."
Hong Dadu: “???”
That's what you said?
It turns out that it's all someone else's problem, and you don't look for the cause in yourself at all, right?
If other people have problems, that is their business. The national fund is in charge of everything, so how can it really control the employees of Kingkong Capital?
Your leader is in charge of you!
As a result, now that the performance is not good, you go and talk about other people's problems. Then who should take the blame?
You cleared yourself so cleanly, but you let your leader take the blame?
Everyone knows that this fund depends on Li Yuan. Do you need to make excuses?
Li Yuan is not at work, the performance is poor, and the data is ugly. This is all normal. We are not fools.
No one asks you to achieve results, but you can't get away with it so cleanly.
Even if you take the blame, will your leader have the nerve to blame you?
At most, he may criticize you harshly on the surface, but he may appreciate you a little more in his heart.
None of the blame you take for your leader is in vain.
After all, no matter how powerful a leader is, there are still leaders above him, and they all need to be accountable.
If they had subordinates like this in the past, they would not have treated them well.
Ye Sheng really wanted to find a solution here, such as asking the two old men to come forward and talk to Li Yuan, but they were just old, not stupid.
Come forward and talk to Li Yuan?
What to talk about?
Is it too much to talk about him? To target a junior?
But the problem is that Li Yuan is only nineteen.
Besides, do they have the nerve to ask Li Yuan to admit his mistake for no reason?
Does Ye Sheng have such a big face?
Even if Li Yuan gave them face and gave Ye Sheng a chance, could they still get along well with Li Yuan in the future?
Who the hell wants a nosy old man?
If Li Yuan has any good things in the future, he will definitely exclude them.
The Ye family was very powerful, but now they are not that powerful anymore.
If Ye Sheng had the ability and Li Yuan's ability was not as strong as it is now, perhaps he could still do something about it.
In this situation, everyone knows who to build good relationships with.
Who knows, ten years from now, a useless guy like Ye Sheng might be the most powerful one in the Ye family. In such a Ye family, even dogs would dare to pee in front of his house.
In the following communication, the two old guys were just working without putting in any effort. Everything Ye Sheng said was right, but they just couldn't understand what the implication in Ye Sheng's words meant.
Finally, Hou Zhenguo found an excuse to leave, and Hong Dadu found an excuse to go over and see him off.
Then, he disappeared.
The two went straight to Hou Zhenguo's house, drinking tea and sighing.
"Originally, I used to think that Wenbin and his team weren't very capable, but compared to others, they were OK. It seems that we overthink it. We only look around us all day long. There are more excellent people out there than we thought."
"Yeah, I don't know whether Li Yuan targeted Ye Sheng or not. But it's obvious that the employees of Sky Capital must be resentful of Ye Sheng. What was the name of that person before?"
"I think his name is Yao Yingsong."
"Yes, Yao Yingsong. He has a very ordinary background, but he gets along very well with the people inside Qingtian Capital. He must have some real skills."
Hou Zhenguo smiled and said, "What's the matter? Are you attracted to him? It's simple. Just marry your granddaughter to him."
"Why not marry Li Yuan?"
"Bullshit, that has to be something Li Yuan likes. Li Yuan doesn't seem to be very satisfied with Yi Ling, he just took it after weighing the pros and cons. Your granddaughter? Although she is gentle and virtuous, Li Yuan is not short of gentle and virtuous people."
Hong Dadu smiled helplessly and said, "If you want to say that she has no special features, just say so directly. She is also gentle and virtuous. I know better than anyone whether my granddaughter is gentle and virtuous."
"Haha, then I'll be frank. Li Yuan likes women who are beautiful, virtuous, and capable. How many people like that are there in this world? Anyway, I've lived for so many years and I've never seen one."
"Then find a chance to meet Yao Yingsong?"
"Are you shameless? Wait for another opportunity and see if Li Yuan is really going to help him. If Li Yuan is really optimistic about him, let alone your granddaughter, I would like to introduce my granddaughter who is just a sophomore to Yao Yingsong."
"Go, go, don't compete with me. I've reserved it first, go find someone else."
The two of them might be joking, but it was enough to show their attitude towards Li Yuan.
The fact that Yao Yingsong can get along well with Li Yuan is already an advantage that cannot be ignored.
Even though he came from an ordinary background, his current position is still very low.
"I'm afraid that next time, we won't get a share from Li Yuan..."
This time it was Hong Dadu who acted as the matchmaker, and since the National Fund did not trust Li Yuan enough, they allowed them to invest a portion of the funds to share the risk.
But next time, it will never be their turn to get a mere 10 billion share.
Perhaps the National Fund gave them a symbolic amount of tens of millions for their sake, but they would rather not take it. After all, at least the National Fund would owe them a favor.
If the Thirteen Guardians divide it up, that little amount will be nothing left.
"Anyway, this time is almost enough. If our children and grandchildren still can't hold on, it has nothing to do with us. It's their own problem."
"Do you regret it now? If you had trusted Li Yuan the whole time, tens of millions would have turned into 5 billion long ago."
"Ha ha."
Hou Zhenguo's laughter speaks for itself.
Who wouldn't regret watching Li Yuan reach his current level with only tens of thousands of dollars in less than half a year?
If they keep following the lead, the Kingkong Mixed Small and Medium Cap Fund can make them earn three or four times more, plus the current Kingkong Global Select Mixed Fund can make them earn four or five times more.
I can’t say it will exceed 5 billion, but 30 to 40 billion will definitely be no problem.
In Li Yuan's hands, money is not really money.
Look at Jiang Yuanqiao, he was the last to participate, and it is estimated that his net worth will be the highest after this liquidation.
After all, he invested 200 million in the Skyworth Mixed Small and Medium Cap Fund and turned it into 700 million.
He invested another 100 million in the Qingtian Global Select Mixed Fund, which is no less than the other Thirteen Guardians. After leaving, he will have at least 600 million.
Each of them was worth just over 100 million before. Even if they were liquidated this time, there would be no chance of them exceeding 1 billion. It would probably be around 800 million.
"At your old age, you still made me regret it..."
"Haha... maybe it's mutual achievement. Without us guys, with this kind of personality, Li Yuan might not have had such a smooth start. So, there is still a reason for the relationship between Li Yuan and us. This relationship may be more important than anything else."
"That's right... If we were a little more normal, we wouldn't be able to cooperate with Li Yuan. Li Yuan should be thanking us. Come on, let's go and invite him to dinner!"
Then……
Three old men came to Li Yuan's house.
When Jiang Yuanqiao arrived, he saw Chen Jie busying around over there and her face did not look very good.
Li Yuan, this bastard, his granddaughter has only been away for a few days...
It seems...it’s been quite a while, more than ten days already.
"No wine?"
Jiang Yuanqiao asked while eating.
Li Yuan said, "Please drink less. I really don't have any."
Jiang Yuanqiao didn't say anything else and started eating in silence.
Hou Zhenguo smiled and said, "Now you are the only one who can control this stubborn old donkey. We have been friends for decades, but we can't do anything about him."
Li Yuan said: "This right is not mine, it was given to me by others, so I guess I benefited from it."
"Is this true? This old guy, apart from his great-grandson, I guess even God has no use for him..."
Hou Zhenguo was halfway through his words when he noticed Jiang Yuanqiao glaring at him. Li Yuan did not refute him.
Hong Dadu also realized that this was most likely true.
Hou Zhenguo burst into laughter and said, "Li Yuan, don't worry. I will be responsible for supervising Old Twelve's drinking in the future. Anyway, I have nothing to do recently, so I'll go and get a free meal."
"Then I have to thank you very much, old man. I'd like to buy you a drink if I have the chance?"
"Wedding wine?"
"Almost, almost..."
After dinner, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
Li Yuan originally thought that the three old guys would leave, but...
I'm overthinking it.
They lay on the sofa, drinking tea and smoking leisurely, looking like they didn't want to leave at all.
After Chen Jie finished packing, she left.
Li Yuan walked over and asked, "Old men, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Jiang Yuanqiao asked, "Why is Chen Jie here?"
"She cooks delicious food and gives a good massage. How about I call her back to give you a massage?"
Jiang Yuanqiao said in surprise: "That's it? I'll call her master over to you, you can change someone."
They knew very well what Chen Jie was up to.
Even though I haven't met Chen Jie very often, I know her parents.
"Let's talk about it later. Do you really have nothing else to do? If you don't, I'll be busy for a while. You can do whatever you want. You don't have to tell me when you want to go back."
Jiang Yuanqiao frowned and said, "Is this fund about to be liquidated?"
"Well, if everything goes well, it will be next week. If not, it may take two weeks."
“What happens after liquidation?”
"I don't know yet, but there is a high probability that there won't be much share left."
Li Yuan also told the truth.
Next time, the national fund will certainly demand a larger share, and its own share cannot be less, only that of the Thirteen Guardians.
"So do you have any suggestions? We old guys still want to make some more money."
Jiang Yuanqiao has a strong sense of crisis. It doesn't look like Li Yuan is someone who would marry Jiang Yiling seriously.
He originally didn't want to say it, but now he had to get some benefits for his great-grandson.
Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "Let's buy Moutai."
