Reborn 92's Business Tycoon - Chapter 586: Urgent
Chapter 586: Chapter 586: Urgent
‘Regarding those part-time reporters and information officers who sign contracts on automobile websites, you still need to pay attention to them,’ Feng Yiping said to Mike in the San Francisco International Airport departure hall.
‘No problem, but boss, these are not within my scope of work,’ Mike, pushing a luggage cart piled with several large boxes, smiled like an old fox.
‘Understood. I’ll talk to President Jin, because you’ll be taking on other work, and your salary will be adjusted accordingly,’
Damn, the big boss personally handed down this matter, and you’re also bargaining. These capitalist elites really only have their eyes on money.
‘Thank you, boss,’ Michael excitedly gave Feng Yiping a bear hug.
Unexpectedly, during this period of time that should have been difficult, his income was actually higher than before. ‘Don’t worry, I will do every job you assign me!’
After receiving the money, Mike finally knew how to express his gratitude.
Of course you have to do a good job, if you don’t do one thing well, the money you get won’t be very good.
With great enthusiasm, Mike helped Feng Yiping check in his luggage, saying in all seriousness, ‘Feng, I really hope you can come more often and give me more work to do,’
‘So you can get paid more,’ Feng Yiping laughed.
These guys really don’t hide their love of money, but this kind of frankness doesn’t make people angry.
‘Just get these jobs done first. Remember, the house must be renovated for me as soon as possible,’
‘No problem. I look forward to seeing you again at the company’s annual meeting,’
‘See you at the annual meeting,’ Feng Yiping shook his hand to say goodbye.
This year’s annual meeting, the American side of the company will also send a few people to attend. Feng Yiping wants all the company’s employees to know that we are also a gradually international company, and in the future, all positions in the company may be globally competitive.
In the first class waiting room, the TV on the wall was broadcasting live the progress of this election that had everyone’s mouths agape. It was already the third day after the vote, and there was still no result as to who would be the president.
Feng Yiping sent a text message, then watched with interest as the guests and host on the TV, as well as the reporters at the location, scrambled about in a mess. He felt inexplicably happy, which was quite a rare sight!
The host suddenly pressed the earpiece, ‘Breaking news, the Bush Jr. camp has announced that the recount in 67 counties in Florida is complete, and they have won,’
but today, when it comes to such news, not to mention the audience in front of the TV, they themselves will not believe in such a unilaterally announced result. After all, in this matter, the media has made so many mistakes that they now have to be more cautious.
Whether it’s Al Gore, who came a close second eight years ago when Bill Clinton was impeached, or George W. Bush, whose father was the former president, they will definitely do their best to get to the top.
Al Gore in particular has already rescinded his concession once on the 8th, so he will definitely not make the same decision lightly again.
As for George W. Bush, if it weren’t for the meddling of the Florida prosecutor, he would have been the next US president at midnight on the 8th. How could he possibly tolerate Gore taking the seat he had briefly occupied?
Sure enough, a few minutes later, there was more breaking news from the front: ‘The court has prohibited the confirmation of the Palm Beach County vote count.’
That means Bush still hasn’t won! I think it’s the Gore camp that’s pushing hard.
Oh, Feng Yiping is having a great time watching it. He’s even thinking about buying a bucket of popcorn to watch the show with. After all, if you’re going to watch a show, you have to look the part.
Moreover, the more precarious and eventful the situation becomes, the more twists and turns there are. When the leading magazine is published in early December, it will definitely be favourable towards George W. Bush Jr. Won’t this make their publishing house look even more righteous? And further enhance the loyalty of those subscribers?
At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket rang.
No surprise, it was really Ma Ling. She sounded a little out of breath. ‘Hi, I was in class. Are you coming back today?’
‘Yes, I’m at the airport. I’m leaving in 40 minutes.’
There was a pause. “Have a safe trip. By the way,” Ma Ling looked at her watch and the bag on her shoulder, “thank you for the gift. I really like it.’
‘Me too. I’m holding the bag you gave me right now.’
There was another pause. “Well, goodbye. I have to go to class now.’
Perhaps it was because it was too cold in Washington at the moment, but Feng Yiping felt Ma Ling’s voice tremble a little when she said the last sentence.
‘Goodbye, and welcome to China. By the way, it’s getting cold, so wear more clothes.’ After being reborn, he had still maintained his warm-hearted nature.
After hearing his words, Ma Ling couldn’t press the end button, and after hesitating for a while, she snapped the phone shut and sighed. In the previous few days, she would just consider it a holiday.
After listening to the other party hang up, Feng Yiping closed his phone and switched it off. He decided to treat the past few days as a holiday. With an American girl’s personality, he thought she would forget about him in no time.
…
Li Ruiyuan had been closely monitoring the stock of China Mobile and, through Jinling, gathering news from relevant domestic ministries and commissions. However, to his disappointment, he had never found any useful information.
Rumours are flying around, such as the rumour in the streets that the mobile company will abolish two-way charging in January next year!
This is big news! Hearing this rumour, many people and organisations can’t sit still.
No matter how domestic users criticise China Mobile – that’s all beside the point. Investors don’t care about that, they only care about the company’s profits, or to be precise, only about their own returns.
So, they don’t care whether or not the two-way charging of mobile phones is reasonable. They just know that the two-way charging scheme will contribute more profits to mobile.
However, if two-way charging is cancelled and replaced by one-way charging, how much of an impact will that have on mobile’s revenue!
When Unicom was listed, Credit Suisse First Boston suddenly and substantially lowered its estimated target price for the shares of China Mobile. Decisive investors had already been selling their holdings of China Mobile shares in small amounts, and many institutions were also selling short China Mobile shares in small amounts.
One thing that must be mentioned is that Credit Suisse First Boston has a very good relationship with the Central Government. It was the first foreign investment bank to set up a representative office in BJ, and more importantly, it has underwritten bonds issued by the Central Government four times before, raising a total of more than 6 billion US dollars for the country.
Therefore, they must have their own sources of information in the Central Government.
So, the sudden release of that information seems to confirm the rumours, and it may be true that the two-way fee abolition is true.
However, Li Ruiyuan, who has suffered a lot in this industry, knows that often what everyone thinks is true is not.
But, from another perspective, it is not impossible that such news is true!
Thousands of years ago, our ancestors already mastered the art of playing with truth and falsehood. You think it’s false, but it might be; you think it’s true, but it might not be.
Although they are not fighting a war, this is a matter that concerns the success or failure of an investment, and it is quite worrying.
Although Feng Yiping clearly told him to stay put, he was still a little restless. After all, this was a very good opportunity! If the news is true, and China Mobile goes down, the profit…
So, like many people, Li Ruiyuan has been particularly angry with the senior management of China Mobile in recent days.
If this were a normal company, it would have already held a press conference to explain the situation. But China Mobile seems to be unaware of the situation. As of now, the company has still not issued a single response.
Although you are now a state-owned enterprise, you are also a listed company, right? Can’t you just do things according to the rules of the market? Can’t you just hold a press conference, say a few words, and show your face?
Besides, if the authorities don’t make a statement, does that mean they are actually tacitly agreeing to it? Is that equivalent to tacitly agreeing to the rumours of the abolition of two-way charging?
Li Ruiyuan was so worried and so torn up that he couldn’t sit still. Over and over again, he looked at his watch. When Feng Yiping’s flight arrived, there were still two hours to go. He grabbed his jacket and said to his secretary, ‘I’m going to the airport,’
He was now desperate to know Feng Yiping’s opinion on the matter.
