Chapter 861 Accident
That night, Sun Yaoliang and Ying Annie came to Song Yuanchao's home, and the four of them had dinner together.
This meal was prepared by Song Yuanchao himself. It was just some home-cooked dishes, but everyone ate it and praised it. They also drank a bottle of good wine and talked about many things about work.
In the following days, Song Yuanchao stayed at home and rarely went out, waiting for the news about Nandu's restructuring. Finally, more than a week later, the decision on Nandu's restructuring was made. On this day, the relevant leaders called the top two leaders of Nandu to discuss the city's views on Nandu's situation and put forward a reform plan.
That afternoon, the news spread within Nandu. Song Yuanchao learned the news relatively early, on the day when Nandu’s restructuring was confirmed, which was the day before the leader had a talk with Nandu.
After knowing this, Song Yuanchao quickly called , and the four of them discussed for a long time. After the Nanfang Restructuring was officially announced, the three of them went directly to find Ruth. After listening to their report, Ruth decisively convened a company meeting. After a morning of discussion at the company meeting, the plan for Si Te Company to participate in the Nanfang Restructuring was approved.
After the company meeting passed, Sit's application was quickly submitted. However, the restructuring of Nandu is a big deal, and the city still has different opinions on how to restructure Nandu and to what extent. It's just that the tone of the restructuring has been determined, and there is no final plan for the restructuring.
After Sit submitted his application to the relevant departments, he expressed his intention to participate in the restructuring of Nandu. The internal discussion on Sit's participation in the restructuring of Nandu was polarized from the beginning.
Comrades who agree that Sitek should reform Nandu said that this plan is a good one. After all, Sitek was established on the basis of Nandu's first branch factory. From this point of view, Sitek and Nandu have a deep relationship. If Sitek intervenes in Nandu's reform, Nandu will be more emotionally receptive. In addition, the original relationship between the two companies will make it easier to promote it.
Moreover, the development of Si Te in recent years is obvious to all. As a nationally renowned food and beverage company, Si Te has far surpassed the former Nandu and has become a well-known brand in Jinling.
Taking these practical situations into consideration, it is most suitable for Sit to participate in the restructuring of Nandu. In this way, the opposition from Nandu may be smaller. In addition, Sit has indeed shown good sincerity in the restructuring plan, so it should be given priority consideration.
There were also many comrades who opposed the idea. Some of them proposed that once Sit reformed Nandu, the reformed Nandu would no longer exist. As a long-established food company in Jinling, Nandu Factory would become history, and in the future Nandu would become a part of Sit.
How can this be called restructuring? It is clearly a direct sale of Nandu, which is an emotionally unacceptable result.
Some comrades also pointed out that the foreign capital of Sit had bad intentions. It should be noted that Sit was originally a joint venture based on a branch factory. The equity ratio of foreign capital and state-owned capital in Sit was determined long ago. As the direct superior enterprise of the branch factory at that time, Nandu owned part of Sit’s equity after the establishment of Sit. Although this part of the equity was only nominal and the chairman’s seat was also sent by the state-owned assets and had little to do with Nandu, equity is equity. Once Sit restructures and merges Nandu, the equity structure will change directly.
Because this situation has exceeded the policy for joint ventures, if the previous shareholding ratio is to be maintained, then both state-owned assets and S&T must intervene in the restructuring of Nanfang. But the problem is that it is impossible for state-owned assets to do this, because the restructuring of Nanfang involves too many financial issues and trivial follow-up work. If state-owned assets can undertake the restructuring of Nanfang, why should other companies be involved?
Arguments were inevitable regarding these two issues. Some said they could be flexible, some thought this was the bottom line and should not be touched, and some said why not talk to Sit? See if Sit was willing to give up Nandu's shares in Sit and just intervene in the restructuring? But most people thought this suggestion was a fantasy, as Sit's foreign investors were not stupid, so how could it be possible?
For a while, there was no consensus on this matter, and in the end, no suitable result was reached.
When the news reached Si Te and then Song Yuanchao, Song Yuanchao was not worried at all. He superficially asked Zheng Guoyuan and others to stay calm.
These leaders may not know much about business operations, and they may be outsiders when asked to run a business. But they have a good grasp of policies and other aspects, and Song Yuanchao has long anticipated the problems they can think of.
Song Yuanchao asked Zheng Guoyuan and his team to continue negotiating with the higher-ups. The details of the plan could be adjusted, even if it meant a little loss later. However, the general direction must not be changed, because it was the bottom line. Song Yuanchao was very clear about the leaders' thinking. If they retreated in some areas, there would be no way back. At that time, the original plan might be completely changed.
At the same time, without even Zheng Guoyuan and Sun Yaoliang knowing, people from Shenghua Capital quietly arrived in Jinling.
After the people from Shenghua Capital arrived, Song Yuanchao contacted a relevant leader through Xiao Shao...oh, now he should be called Lao Shao. After so many years, Xiao Shao has long been over 40 and has become Lao Shao. Under his arrangement, he revealed his interest in the reform of Nandu.
When they learned that a new enterprise was willing to participate in Nandu's restructuring and put forward a plan that was apparently slightly inferior to Si Te's but could avoid the sequelae of Si Te's equity change, some comrades who had initially disagreed with Si Te's involvement in Nandu's restructuring suddenly became very interested, thinking that without Si Te, the butcher Zheng, they could also do without eating hairy pigs.
Now that there is another option, although the conditions are a little more stringent, it can avoid some operational problems. Why not? There is no need to hang on to Sit, isn't it better to let other companies solve Nandu's problems?
In this way, Shenghua Capital's proposal also entered the discussion. After half a month of discussion, Shenghua Capital's proposal gradually gained the upper hand. Although Song Yuanchao did not actually intervene, he had been paying attention to this matter. When the good news came, Song Yuanchao was in a very good mood. He felt that this matter should not be a big problem.
On this day, Song Yuanchao met Xiaoqi in a private room of a teahouse in Jinling. Xiaoqi was the leader of the group from Shenghua Capital this time.
The sale of Shenghua Clothing has been confirmed. After the new year, Song Yuanchao let Xiaoqi leave Shenghua Clothing and registered a new company through Shenghua Capital. Xiaoqi served as the legal representative and general manager of this company.
"I heard the talks went well? Is it basically confirmed?"
"That's right. We've already made an appointment there. I'll bring people to meet again tomorrow to discuss the specific plan. I think there shouldn't be any problem in getting this project." Xiao Qi said to Song Yuanchao with a smile on his face. He was very happy that things were going well.
"Well done! I'll give you a bonus after this is done!" Song Yuanchao nodded with satisfaction and said this. As soon as he said this, Xiao Qi was even more delighted. As the big boss, Song Yuanchao made such a promise, it seemed that the bonus was a sure thing.
Just as he was feeling happy, Xiao Qi looked towards his waist as the beeping sound came. When he took off the pager and read the text displayed on it, his face suddenly changed.
"How could this happen?" I couldn't help but blurt out after seeing the text displayed on the pager.
"What's wrong?" Song Yuanchao asked.
"Mr. Song, there is a problem with tomorrow's arrangements." Xiao Qi said with a grim expression, and at the same time handed the pager in his hand to Song Yuanchao.
Song Yuanchao frowned as soon as he took the message. A line of words appeared on the Chinese pager. The words were very simple and read: "Tomorrow's meeting has been temporarily cancelled. Please wait for further notification." Below was a signature "Mr. Wei."
"Who is this Mr. Wei?"
"The leader's secretary."
Song Yuanchao frowned slightly. He didn't know what was going on with the cancellation. Was it because the leader had something to do? Or was there a change in the situation? But no matter what, he had to figure out the situation immediately. Song Yuanchao stopped drinking tea and asked Xiao Qi to contact Secretary Wei immediately to ask what was going on.
Xiao Qi went out to find a phone contact without saying a word. Song Yuanchao lit a cigarette and waited quietly, while thinking about possible changes.
About half an hour later, Xiao Qi came back and told Song Yuanchao that he had contacted Secretary Wei, but Secretary Wei did not say why. He just said that the leader had some temporary arrangements at work, so tomorrow's meeting was cancelled. As for the subsequent arrangements, they would have to wait for the leader to see the time and confirm.
Song Yuanchao's brows furrowed even more. Although this sounded fine, he still felt a little uneasy. He asked Xiao Qi to find out what was going on from Secretary Wei. Why did the arrangement suddenly change? And most importantly, would it affect the subsequent restructuring of Nandu?
After Xiaoqi left, Song Yuanchao did not stay in the teahouse any longer. He went straight home.
When he got home, Song Yuanchao first called Lao Shao, told him the situation, and asked him to use his connections to help him find out what had happened.
Then Song Yuanchao contacted other people and asked them to do the same thing. After hanging up the phone, Song Yuanchao picked up the phone again and subconsciously wanted to call Lin Daoyuan in Yanjing, but he hung up after just pressing two keys.
It was not clear what was going on, so it was not convenient to ask his father-in-law for help. Moreover, Lin Daoyuan had already left his job, and although he still had some connections in Jinling, as the saying goes, people are forgotten when they leave, and Song Yuanchao did not want Lin Daoyuan to ask for help for his own affairs.
After thinking about it, Song Chaoyuan did not continue to call, but just waited quietly for news. If the person he called did not respond, Song Yuanchao would think of other ways. No matter what, he had to figure out the situation before he could feel at ease.
No news came that day until noon the next day, when Lin Daoyuan's former secretary Shao Heping called Song Yuanchao.
When Song Yuanchao received Shao Heping's call and heard what Shao Heping said on the phone, he was stunned for a moment and his face became extremely ugly.
"Thank you, Brother Shao. Sorry for bothering you."
"What are you talking about? Do we brothers need to be so polite?"
"Haha , fine. I still have things to deal with here, so I won't chat with you any more. When I finish my work here, I'll go to Gusu to have a drink with you."
"Okay!" Shao Heping agreed immediately on the phone. Before hanging up, he gave Song Yuanchao a few words of advice, telling him not to be too anxious about this matter. Although some changes have occurred at present, the final result is not certain. The opinions above are not unified and are still under discussion. Perhaps the current changes are just a small episode.
After hanging up the phone, Song Yuanchao lit a cigarette and suddenly felt very annoyed.
Although Shao Heping's words were correct, this change was really beyond Song Yuanchao's expectations, and this new opponent was something Song Yuanchao had never thought of before. This was an extremely powerful opponent, even stronger than Si Te. Otherwise, the leader would not have suddenly changed his mind, because this opponent was Coca-Cola, which had just entered China.
