Hong Kong Stubborn - Chapter 40
Early the next morning, Luo Junyan stood in front of the ATV building, waiting for Qiu Degen, chairman of Xiangjiang Far East Group.
In August last year, Qiu Degen acquired the shares of Li’s in the hands of the Australian consortium and became the new owner of Li’s TV station. He then changed the name of Li’s TV station to Asia Television.
When “My Savage Girlfriend” was just finished painting, Qiu Degen and Yolo Junyan happened to meet each other.
Naturally, Qiu Degen would not deliberately win over Luo Junyan, but a few simple conversations still expressed the intention of inviting Luo Junyan to join ATV. Luo Junyan’s response was considered comprehensive, and it was in between whether to sign for ATV.
When Luo Junyan appeared in front of Qiu Degen, Qiu Degen did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he invited him to the office to discuss in detail.
Luo Junyan entered Qiu Degen’s office without much greeting, and directly told the whole story about the Tianyuan Building without a lie.
After hearing this quietly, Qiu Degen said: “You came to me, do you want me to help you loan 90 million from the Far East Bank?”
Luo Junyan nodded honestly, and said, “I’m here to beg you about this.”
Qiu Degen asked again: “Then why did you tell the matter to me? Am I so worthy of your trust?”
Luo Junyan replied: “The matter is more urgent. If you tell lies in front of you, you will definitely not help me this time. There may be a chance of telling the truth.”
Qiu Degen smiled and said, “Are you planning to tell me that there is no problem with Tianyuan Building? Ajun, it doesn’t matter if I believe it or not, the important thing is how do you convince the people of Xiangjiang.”
Luo Junyan was dumbfounded, wondering how to bring Tianyuan Mansion back to life? He really didn’t have a clue, even if he published the truth in the newspaper, no one would believe it. Who made him act too real at the time.
Qiu Degen thought for a while, and said: “I can help you this time, but you have to pay the corresponding price.”
Luo Junyan breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Dong Qiu, please tell me.”
Qiu Degen said: “The three-year ATV basic agreement. In addition, the Far East Bank can only give you a two-year loan period. I can allow you to repay the principal and interest at any time during the loan period. But after the loan expires, if you can’t If the debt is cleared, then the priority of Tianyuan Building will go to Far East Bank.”
Luo Junyan can’t take care of the loan for the time being. Three-year basic contract is very troublesome. This kind of on-the-job contract is also called the full contract of the agent or the TVB artist jokingly.
Once Luo Junyan has signed a three-year basic contract with ATV, as long as he does not want to be hidden, ATV’s opinions must be respected in all work during the three years. And for all income from performing arts, both the company and the agent must draw commissions, including movies of course.
Luo Junyan frowned and thought for a while, and said: “Dong Qiu, but Ma Weiming said that an agreement is needed. I cannot sell the property rights of any part of Tianyuan Building within 10 years, and he has the right to buy back at the original price.”
Qiu Degen smiled and said: “You did not sell, but you mortgaged Tianyuan Building to Far East Bank for a loan. If you really cannot pay off the principal and interest by then, Tianyuan Building is a mortgage-backed asset, and the bank, as a mortgage creditor, has priority in repayment. It’s just that, this time Far East Bank is asking for the right of priority disposal, which may be public auction or contact potential buyers. In short, the bank’s interests will not be harmed.”
Luo Junyan said in his heart: When the time comes, you will buy it yourself first, and the bank will just recover the principal and interest. I am afraid that my 10 million will be in vain.
Luo Junyan was really in a dilemma, always undecided.
Qiu Degen lit his cigar and said, “A Jun, you can go back and think about it. Or try your luck at another bank.”
Luo Junyan suddenly remembered the situation on the birthday night of sister army. She was equally polite and cold, so she got a hot head and said, “Qiu Dong, I agree to all.”
On the same day, Luo Junyan signed a secret contract with ATV. Until Luo Junyan’s matter is handled properly, it will not be announced to the public for the time being.
The next day, Luo Junyan did not go directly to ask Ma Weiming out to trade, but after disguising, went to the original detective agency. With the assistance of the detective agency, Luo Junyan secretly met with a woman who would not have been involved that night, and talked in detail for more than two hours.
After waiting for 6 days, Luo Junyan did not wait for the eagerly awaited response. Luo Junyan can only sigh that the plan is in the sky, so he had to call Ma Weiming on the day of the deadline of the week, and the two met in a well-known large law firm to conduct a transaction.
The completion of the transaction was quite tortuous. One hundred million Hong Kong dollars could not be transferred to Ma Weiming in full, and nearly 4.5 million transaction taxes and law firm fees had to be deducted. Therefore, the buyer and the seller had a scolding dispute in front of the lawyer, but Luo Junyan swore that he couldn’t even get out one hundred thousand yuan.
After all, Ma Weiming was still a face-to-face person, and finally compromised, and Tianyuan Building was officially returned to Luo Junyan’s name. The law firm will handle the follow-up matters for Luo Junyan as soon as possible.
After a week, after the law firm had completed all the transfer procedures, Luo Junyan never inspected his new territory, Tianyuan Building.
Just after the New Year’s Day holiday, ATV officially announced the news of Luo Junyan joining. One stone stirred up a thousand waves. No one could guess what Luo Junyan’s mental state was. He walked downhill?
In the office of Sister Army in the Snowman Age, Sister Army is holding a coffee cup, Brother Cheng is holding a cigar, and Luo Meiwei is holding a tea cup. The three of them looked at Luo Meizi standing in the middle of the office, and listened to her angrily confessing all the details they had forced from Luo Junyan last night.
After Luo Meizi finished the matter completely, Cheng frowned and said, “Ajun, this is swelling. Let alone right or wrong, he doesn’t ask for instructions beforehand, and he doesn’t report afterwards. This is in the eyes I’m gone.”
Luo Meiwei accidentally said something first: “Brother Cheng, now is not the time to care about this. Ajun borrowed so much money, and Tianyuan Building can only be vacant, so what should he do?”
Brother Cheng waved his hand and said indifferently: “If you let the bank take it away, you will lose 10 million. That kid can afford it now.”
Sister Army looked as usual, put the coffee cup down, and said: “Brother Cheng, you and Jun are thinking about simplicity. If Jun really can’t pay off the loan, Jun will definitely be executed before Far East Bank disposes of Tianyuan Building. Personal bankruptcy, the money and house in his account will be used to repay part of the debt. Qiu Degen believes that it is impossible for Ajun to bring Tianyuan Mansion back to life in two years. On that day, there will be no rivals in Yuan Mansion, and one can only be rented. How much revenue can a ghost building that cannot be sold generate in two years? When Qiu Degen takes over, it may be done with less than 50 million.”
Brother Cheng thought for a while and scolded: “Ma Weiming, grandson. Everyone is a decent person. He wants literary fights instead of armed fights, but he uses all the guns. Army, just look for the relationship in the bureau, directly. Take Ma Weiming down, and then sue him to use violence to coerce A Jun into signing the contract and let the court rule that the contract is invalid. A Jun hastened to get back the money for the purchase of the building, and don’t let that grandson get rid of the misfortune.”
Sister Army shook her head and said, “In Xiangjiang, which of these generations of wealthy businessmen has no relationship between black and white? If you really want to force Ma Weiming to take risks, things will get out of control and it will only be more troublesome. Not to mention dealing with this. The transaction is a well-known big law firm, and it will definitely do nothing during the transaction. It is not easy for Ajun to win.”
Luo Meiwei hesitated and asked tentatively: “Army, or else lend the cash from the Snowman Age to Ajun for a turnaround?”
The other three people immediately turned to look at her. Luo Meiwei flushed and explained in a flustered manner: “I have no other meaning. I just think that Cheng is Ajun’s master, Azi is the sister in-law, and Sister Army has always been I take care of Jun, so I just propose a solution for you.”
Sister Army, don’t look at her intently for a while, turn to Luo Meizi, and ask: “Azi, you are one of the shareholders of the Snowman Era, what’s your opinion?”
Luo Meizi frowned slightly and said, “He refused to borrow money from the Snowman Era, saying that he could solve it by himself. I asked him to tell me the reason, and he lost his temper and ran away from home.”
Brother Cheng could roughly guess the crux of Luo Junyan’s stubbornness. He slanted his eyes and glanced at sister army secretly, dipped his cigar, but made no sound.
Sister Army stared at the coffee cup on the table, silently pondered for a moment, and then said: “The plan to buy an office building is put on hold. Brother Cheng, the current economic market in Xiangjiang is very sluggish, and British-funded enterprises have begun to gradually relocate. The business volume of the Snowman Times has shrunk by nearly 50%. But I will announce before the Spring Festival that the Snowman Times will not lay off employees and promise not to reduce the salaries and benefits of employees. Then we need to open up new markets.”
Brother Cheng nodded and said, “Army, I understand what you mean. In fact, I have long recommended going to the mainland to attract customers. I dare to use the head guarantee. It is absolutely safe to set up a branch in the special zone. You have to hesitate. If you do, the rest will be big bones and sticks. It’s a lively bite, but there is not much meat.”
Sister Army stood up and said, “Brother Cheng, you make a plan to enter the mainland market. Xiaowei, I plan to promote you to become the chief executive officer of the mainland branch. You should think about it for yourself and don’t rush to answer me. .”
Luo Meiwei’s expression was stunned, she was deeply surprised by sister army’s decision, but she nodded and said, “Okay, sister army.”
The news that Luo Junyan bid 100 million Hong Kong dollars to buy Tianyuan Building was quickly learned by the media. Luo Junyan’s work on this matter is even more confusing. Before the reporters came to stop him, another major economic case that shook Xiangjiang occurred.
One of Ma Weiming’s underground lovers, Shao Mimi, the second-line **** bomber actress who ran to the police station to hide from ghosts, ran to the police station again. But this time, she took Tianyuan Industrial’s account book to the Commercial Crime Investigation Division to report her lover Ma Weiming for setting up false accounts, issuing empty forward checks, and forging land sales contracts to defraud bank loans and other serious crimes.
When the Commercial Crime Investigation Division obtained a search warrant and dispatched a large number of people to Ma Weiming’s house, Ma Weiming had received news in advance and fled before the police arrived.
Because the amount of money involved in this case is huge, and several foreign banks are involved. The police immediately issued a notice of the wanted Ma Weiming to the whole of Hong Kong, and closely monitored the various passages of departure. Even the Hong Kong Governor personally called the Royal Police Headquarters to investigate the case.
Luo Junyan was involved again. Although there was no clue that he was an accomplice in the case, the media would still question the timing of Luo Junyan’s 100 million yuan purchase of Tianyuan Building.
Luo Junyan scolded Shao Mimi for a dog-blood sprinkler in her heart, and was extremely puzzled by Shao Mimi’s way of jumping out at this time.
The person Luo Junyan met through the detective agency and discussed in detail was this Shao Mimi. His plan was to use a dead horse as a living horse doctor, but he did so based on several judgments.
First of all, Ma Weiming came to the door with a gun, whether he was bluffing or not, but he is not an actor, and he is definitely not a fake. Will the bankruptcy of a company make a well-regarded and rich man jump over the wall?
Secondly, Qiu Degen’s words reminded him. Ma Weiming, as a long-time shopping mall owner, naturally does not know that if Luo Junyan is unable to repay the loan due, the bank has the right to dispose of Tianyuan Building. Then why does he have to sign Luo Junyan’s personal repurchase agreement within 10 years? Instead, he didn’t mention a word about the loan term?
According to Luo Junyan’s bold speculation, Ma Weiming’s problem is definitely not just that Tianyuan Industry is about to go bankrupt, and the repurchase agreement signed by this guy is only used to cover the eyes, in order to show that he will never give up Tianyuan Building. In the end, Luo Junyan thought that Ma Weiming was going to run, and what would you run if you didn’t commit a crime?
Finally, the detective agency once reported to Luo Junyan a lot of information about the people around Ma Weiming. Through this information, Luo Junyan knew that Shao Mimi did not benefit much from Ma Weiming. Even the villa Ma Weiming let her stay in, the luxury car that she drove was not renamed and transferred, that is, a monthly package of 30,000 to 50,000 yuan was given.
Therefore, Luo Junyan believes that Shao Mimi must be extremely dissatisfied with Ma Weiming in his heart, and both sides take what they need and have a basis for cooperation.
After Luo Junyan saw Shao Mimi, he didn’t hide it, and directly told her the whole story and his own speculation. Then she wanted her to use her lover’s identity to collect Luo Tianyuan’s core business intelligence. If Shao Mimi can obtain evidence of Ma Weiming’s commercial crimes within 5 days, Luo Junyan will offer 5 million yuan as a reward.
Luo Junyan is just holding a fluke, hoping to get a chance before the transaction, holding Ma Weiming’s handle, let himself jump out of the huge pit of Tianyuan Building.
Normally, the big ship is smashing and leaking, and someone throws a lifebuoy. There is no reason not to abandon the ship. But Shao Mimi unexpectedly didn’t make a statement on the spot, and didn’t even show any interest in the 5 million remuneration. She just said that she would seriously consider it and let Luo Junyan wait for her reply.
In fact, Luo Junyan seriously ignored a problem at the time. For this kind of second-rate romantic star who was close to the rich, Luo Junyan lacked a deep understanding of her scheming and methods. This kind of woman belongs to the type who is willing to pull the emperor off the horse.
In a word, they perform better in real life than in movies.
Shao Mimi learned from Luo Junyan in advance that the broken ship was about to load 100 million in cash. How could she not be bothered?
