Chapter 42 The pressure is high
In Fanren's office, Liu Jun sat opposite him.
It's been ten minutes already.
"Is this the end? If you have time, go to Boss Yun's place and help her look after the construction site."
Fan Ren really couldn't stand Liu Jun's blank gaze on him, and finally drove him away impatiently.
"I don't have the time for that. I have a lot of patent authorizations waiting for me to handle."
Liu Jun shook his head subconsciously, but his eyes continued to stare at Fan Ren.
He really couldn't see through this buddy he had been with for four years in college.
500 billion, just say no and it’s gone.
"Well, second brother, tell me the truth, do you know what 500 billion in pure cash means?"
Fan Ren glared at him unhappily and said, "I'm not stupid. 500 billion doesn't make me the richest man in terms of assets, but if it's cash, I'd definitely be the richest man."
At this point, he couldn't help but sigh. Half a day had passed since the meeting with Sanxin. At this moment, he was sitting in the office, and his heart was no longer moved by the number.
Liu Jun rubbed his head with his hands in confusion and said, "You knew? So you knew! But if you say that, I'm under a lot of pressure."
"What pressure? Xinghai has the technology and has the say. As the rule maker, we have the final say in this market. What pressure do you have? Let's talk about cooperation as we should. You don't need to think too much about other aspects."
Hearing this, Liu Jun sighed, nodded and said, "I didn't think so much about it at first. From the beginning of high-voltage radio, I thought that if we could develop Xinghai into a company with a scale of tens of billions, it would be very, very remarkable."
Fan Ren nodded, and seeing that this guy didn't look perfect anymore, he had no choice but to light a cigarette for himself.
Liu Jun was not polite, he took the cigarette box and lit it, then continued: "But you also came up with a solid-state battery. To be honest, I was a little scared at that time, but I also know that Xinghai can't do without me at this stage. I'm not bragging, but you don't have anyone you can trust in our company now, so I have to deal with these things."
"Don't belittle yourself, Third Brother. To be honest, if I were in your position, I don't know what I would do to Xinghai."
Liu Jun took a puff of his cigarette and did not refute. He knew that Fan Ren's energy was not on this, so he said, "That's it. If you say you don't want 500 billion, then don't blame me for speaking harshly. I really want to pry open your brain to see if it's all water."
At this point, he couldn't help laughing again, shook his head and said, "That doesn't make sense. If your brain is full of water, then the brains of all of us are probably full of paste."
Fan Ren smiled. He couldn't tell the secret about himself, so he kept silent and just smoked with Liu Jun who was chattering in front of him.
"Second brother, I'm not giving up. I'm telling you the truth. I really don't have the confidence to help you make back the 500 billion in a short time. Although the battery market is very large, we are starting from scratch in terms of production. I don't know how long it will take to fully meet market demand.
Although we can make money by collecting patents, to be honest, we might as well transfer the technology to Sanxin and take the 500 billion in one go.
I have no idea. I really have no idea."
Fan Ren shook his head helplessly. He didn't expect that the scene in the morning would have such an impact on Liu Jun. After thinking about it, he understood.
Although he is born into a wealthy family, the total assets of his family's businesses are only worth two or three billion.
He just rejected the 500 billion yuan offer. How could he not be shocked and feel tremendous pressure?
While the two were silent, a shrill phone ring sounded in Liu Jun's pocket.
After looking at the number, he was stunned, and then he answered the call under Fan Ren's puzzled eyes.
"Dad, what's the matter? Okay, I got it. Anything else?"
After hanging up the phone, Liu Jun was silent for a while, then he said, "My old man called me and told me to go back. I guess he knows where I am. He also invited you to visit his home."
Fan Ren nodded, not surprised. The company has come this far, and although the market value does not seem high, it has already been exposed on the hot searches of major media because of the solid-state battery. It is normal for Liu Jun's family to know that he is now the vice president of Xinghai, and it is not surprising to contact him. As a mature businessman, even if there is no cooperation condition between him and Xinghai, it does not prevent him from making friends with them.
He immediately said, "Okay, no problem. You decide on the arrangements."
After thinking for a while, he continued without waiting for Liu Jun to speak: "You still have to work hard to manage the company first. This is my plan. Xinghai will be separated and a high-voltage radio branch and a battery company will be established as subsidiaries. We will also gradually increase investment in Yunhai Manufacturing. After the next round of investment of 20 billion yuan, the shareholding can be expanded to 95%. If you continue to invest in building factories in the future, the shareholding will continue to increase.
After this busy period is over and these cooperation authorizations are signed, we will start to do this. By then, you can choose where you want to develop the branch under Xinghai.
As for Xinghai, I still need a professional manager to help me manage this mess."
As Liu Jun listened, his eyes gradually brightened.
He knows himself well. His ability allows him to manage a company worth tens of billions at best. Forget about letting him deal with a market worth hundreds of billions.
I'm really afraid that if I mess it up, I'll be letting down my brother who rejected the 500 billion this morning.
Without any hesitation, he stood up and said, "Okay, if you have nothing to do tonight, come home with me. Let me tell you in advance that if your family makes any requests, you don't have to pay attention to them. I will handle it."
Fan Ren smiled and said, "Okay, I'll follow your instructions, Vice President Liu."
Outside, Zeng Yingying waited for a long time and finally saw Liu Jun coming out. She hurriedly stood up, greeted him and walked into the office.
As soon as she entered, a pungent smell of cigarette smoke hit her in the face. Zeng Yingying covered her nose and quickly opened the curtains, turning on the ventilation fan. Only then did her expression ease a little.
"what's up?"
Fan Ren saw all of this and couldn't help but feel that his decision to recruit Zeng Yingying into the company was a wise one.
For more than half a year, Liu Jun has been in charge of external affairs, while his logistics manager has been managing the company in good order internally.
And most of the time, Zeng Yingying was just like him, too busy to go home, and just followed those otakus and made a folding bed in the company and slept on it.
Therefore, Fanren was very generous in Zeng Yingying's salary, which had increased from 30,000 to 50,000 now.
Zeng Yingying habitually emptied the ashtray on the desk, then refilled Fan Ren's teacup with water before sitting down in front of him.
"Well, Mr. Fan, I want to have the purchase and maintenance of the company's cars done at the 4S store in the city. After comparing them, I think the quotes they offer are relatively cost-effective."
Fan Ren nodded, with some confusion on his face.
Did she come to him just for this? Not really. He gave Zeng Yingying a lot of authority. She was in charge of all the purchasing power within the company, and she also asked the finance department to sign and pay for the monthly accounts.
Seeing Fan Ren's confusion, Zeng Yingying's face suddenly showed some hesitation.
"I told you not to blame me!"
"Just tell me, I can't blame you for anything. I don't know what the company would be like without you. Just tell me, it's okay."
Zeng Yingying glanced at Fan Ren and then stopped hesitating.
"Xiao Min, Xu Min works there and is still an apprentice. I want to help her."
After saying this in a low voice, Zeng Yingying couldn't help but lower her head. She was a little afraid that Fan Ren would scold her.
