Chapter 2228 Willingness

When Sun Feifei heard what Zhao Shucheng said, she suddenly became nervous, worried that the other party would do something to Fu Chun because of Zhao Shucheng.

The other party did not expect Zhao Shucheng to have the guts to say this, and immediately said angrily: "Don't you care about Fu Chun's life or death?"

"He is only Feifei's boss, and he is a representative of the gentry. If he really gets into trouble, it will definitely be a major case that will shock the whole city, and you can't escape. Feifei is just an employee, so giving you money is a favor. Not giving money and calling the police is the right choice."

Zhao Shucheng looked at a van in the distance and said, "I know you are in the van. We don't want to make a big deal out of this, so we didn't call the police. Your best option is to take the money and release the people. I have already made arrangements. My people will call the police in half an hour. By then, no matter whether the transaction is successful or not, we will choose to leave."

The other party didn't expect Zhao Shucheng to be so tough. He frowned and said sternly, "It seems that you really don't care about Fu Chun's life or death?"

"Actually, I hope you'll kill me. After all, I originally wanted to acquire Huachang. If Fu Chun was still here, it might cost several million. But if Fu Chun is gone, I might only need one dollar to acquire a large company that is insolvent. Which one do you think is better?"

The other party was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Zhao Shucheng would have such an idea. He frowned and began to think.

"Okay, let's go to the Beiao Bridge in half an hour. We will hand over the money and the people at the same time. No tricks."

"That's the best. I don't want to be suspected and disrupt my acquisition plan."

Sun Feifei saw Zhao Shucheng hang up the phone and said anxiously: "How can you say that? What if something really happens to Mr. Fu?"

"Don't worry, the other party won't kill you so easily. On the contrary, if you had agreed just now, you would have been taken away by them now. They didn't even think about releasing you, they just wanted to make a profit. Otherwise, they wouldn't have asked us to trade in half an hour, which shows that Fu Chun was not in the van just now."

"Since we know they are in the van, why not just follow them and save Mr. Fu!"

"Miss Sun, we can't follow them because we don't know what weapons they have. If we follow them, we might end up in danger ourselves."

Zhao Shucheng frowned as he spoke, feeling that he had been a little rash in coming here this time. He came alone and did not carry any self-defense weapons. It would be difficult to deal with it if he really encountered danger.

Although he said so, Zhao Shucheng still drove his car and followed the other party's van to an unfinished building at Sun Feifei's request.

The other party seemed to have noticed that Zhao Shucheng was following them, so after stopping, he called Sun Feifei directly and said, "Miss Sun, you are not kind enough to follow us. We will not do this deal."

"That won't do. Since we're trading, we can do it anywhere. Since this is your base, you're more familiar with it, so it'll be more convenient for trading. Let's start trading now!"

The other party looked at Zhao Shucheng's car warily, wondering if he could get more money if he kidnapped Zhao Shucheng and his men. But he quickly gave up the idea because he saw that Zhao Shucheng had no intention of getting out of the car, and the car was not even turned off, so he could leave at any time.

The other party could only let their men bring Fu Chun out and make some money first. Of course, they didn't really want to let Fu Chun go. After getting the money, they would just shoot him.

But they didn't expect that Zhao Shucheng had gotten out of the car and walked around behind their car when they were not paying attention, and even came to the window of the other boss's car.

When he looked inside the building, wondering why Fu Chun hadn't come out yet, he was hit by a punch from Zhao Shucheng and immediately fell into coma.

Zhao Shucheng also noticed that the other party still had a gun in his hand, so he quickly snatched it, unloaded the bullets, threw it aside, and then knocked out the two people in the other car with the butt of the gun.

Fu Chun was actually also trying to find a way to save himself. He broke the rope and knocked out the person guarding him. When he was about to escape, he met the person who came back to look for him. He had to fight with the other person for a while before he successfully escaped.

When he saw Zhao Shucheng standing in front of the van and Sun Feifei walking out of the car not far away, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Boss Lei, it seems I have to thank you for saving my life this time."

"Mr. Fu, you are too polite. However, the situation this time is very serious. The other party came after you with a purpose and has no intention of letting you go. So you should be more careful in the next period of time. At least, try not to act alone before finding the mastermind behind the scenes."

Fu Chun was stunned for a moment and said, "I understand!"

After a while, sirens sounded and the detectives quickly arrived and arrested all the people involved in the kidnapping.

The kidnapper boss didn't expect that he would be caught like this, so after waking up, he looked at Zhao Shucheng with vicious eyes, as if he wanted to eat him.

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "The amount involved is one million, and you even illegally possessed a gun and tried to hurt the kidnapped person. Do you think you can still get out? Don't think you are in your Da Ao. This is Da Xia, and there is a death penalty!"

The other party's face suddenly changed, and he tried to find a way to escape the crime in an ugly way.

Zhao Shucheng and Fu Chun went to the government office to take notes. After they came out, Fu Chun smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Lei!"

"You're welcome, but this time it has reminded me that I need to pay attention to the personal safety of myself and the people around me. It seems that I need to ask my old leader for help and find some bodyguards."

"Isn't it?"

"It's very likely that you will never need it, but it's very dangerous if you encounter it once. Mr. Fu, you are a representative of the gentry. I think you should report it to the prefect. We are still trying to attract investment to solve the current difficulties. For many businessmen, such a thing is a very dangerous signal and is not conducive to the next work."

Fu Chun didn't expect Zhao Shucheng to say this, but he quickly nodded and said, "I'll tell Zhang Dapeng."

The kidnapping of Fu Chun has indeed caused quite a stir in Hai City. After all, the other party's identity is very sensitive, and it has made many entrepreneurs feel insecure.

Everyone is well aware of Huachang’s situation. Fu Chun himself didn’t have much money, but he was still kidnapped. So will these small bosses like them also encounter such a situation?

When Zhang Dapeng came to visit Fu Chun, he heard Fu Chun talking about Zhao Shucheng's concerns about public security and the current difficulties he was facing. He also planned to carry out several large-scale inspections, surprise inspections, etc.

However, Fu Chun felt that this level was not enough and that he had to start from many aspects. Therefore, he talked about Huachang’s current predicament, which could not be solved by holding a few meetings and issuing a few documents.

After Zhang Dapeng left, he talked to Sun Feifei again about this leisure trip. It can be said that he escaped from danger, but it also gave him a way to escape from danger regarding Huachang's economic situation. He planned to hold a meeting with several large companies in the city to discuss how to get out of the current difficult situation. These companies are basically Huachang's largest creditors, and they hope to find a way to get Huachang out of its heavy debts.

When Sun Feifei heard the names of these companies and saw that Xiao Lei's investment company was not among them, she said, "Boss Fu, do you want to notify Boss Lei of Xiao Lei's family?"

Fu Chun hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it, just notify them. They just saved me, so I can only return the favor. Let's meet them at Yileyuan the day after tomorrow!"

"Is it the Yileyuan in the suburbs?"

"Yes, Mr. Liu there is our friend and can sign the order for us!"

Two days later, Zhao Shucheng drove to Yileyuan to accept Fu Chun's invitation.

Fu Chun originally had high expectations for these company CEOs who came to the meeting, but when they actually showed up, he found that some things were different from what he had expected.

Mr. Xia joked that he had nothing to do now, not to mention Mr. Yu, who was sued for fraud and was directly detained.

When Fu Chun heard what Mr. Xia said, he asked curiously, "Didn't we see you donating computers to the welfare home on TV a few days ago?"

"That batch of computers was obtained by fraud. We didn't pay a penny. We were just trying to gain fame and reputation, but now that it's exposed, we've been caught by the police. Will Carrie's General Hu come?"

"I called him, he should be here!"

"It would be best if he came, I still need to talk to him!"

Fu Chun was a little worried when he heard this. He originally thought that he could ask these CEOs for help, but now it seems that there is not much hope. However, he also has his own ideas. Since fighting alone is not feasible, then banding together for warmth is also a good way.

So after everyone was present, he directly explained his ideas. Many companies present were already in the most dangerous time, and he also talked about Huachang's predicament, with a debt of more than 150 million yuan.

The CEO of SDIC said directly, "You can still afford it. Our Haishi SDIC has a debt of more than 500 million. Have you heard that those who dare to solemnly admit that their company is in debt are full of confidence. Those who can't pay back their debts but still say that their company is profitable are boasting. Those who can't even pay the wages but still sing the Internationale are deceiving people and falling into deception."

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and began to talk about the situation of their own companies.

"We still owe 600 million yuan for real estate!"

"We at Daewoo still owe three hundred million!"

"We at Haishun Real Estate owe 100 million."

"We have less industry in the south, and we owe 80 million."

Fu Chun nodded and said, "Look, we have more than 1 billion in total. This 1 billion piled on our heads is like the Five Elements Mountain pressing on the back of Sun Wukong. Even if you have great abilities, you can't move and you can only stare blankly."

Mr. Hu from Jiali said, "Old Fu, not all the companies here are in debt. We at Jiali are seeking to go public, so we have very few debt issues. I think Mr. Lei from the Lei family should be in the same situation, right?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and nodded, saying, "It depends on the company. Although our Xiaolei family's companies are all under the group, each company is responsible for its own profits and losses. If the loss is serious, the company will be closed directly and the staff will be transferred to other companies, so the debt is relatively better. Moreover, you only talked about your own debts, but did not say how much money is owed to you by others. If all the receivables are collected, you should not have so much debt, right?"

Others immediately complained, saying that the one who currently owed the debt was the uncle, but the one who was collecting the debt was the grandson, and those debts could not be collected back at all.

Fu Chun said: "Everyone, don't just complain. Today's meeting is to find a way to solve this problem."

Mr. Yang, who owns a property, said with a worried look on his face, "In the past, we had no worries and someone was there to take care of us. Now, if someone lets us go, we will be left without a father or a mother. If someone can find me a Tang Monk as my master, I will be willing to put on a tight hoop for me!"

Fu Chun said: "I also have a famous saying, there has never been a savior, everything depends on ourselves."

Mr. Yang said, "Are you saying that if we all unite, we will definitely be able to solve the problem?"

Mr. Wang from SDIC said, "We are now local rich men who lost in gambling. As long as we are alive, we can still owe debts. What's the use of it? I'm used to it now. If you are not afraid of trouble, you can come and run. Anyway, the company is not mine."

Fu Chun was not so negative. He said, "I can't say that it will definitely solve the problem, but at least it is a way to solve the problem. Our companies have all been glorious in the past, and everyone is a master who can handle their own affairs."

"I have an idea. That is to separate our bad assets and set up a new company to bear our debts. In this way, won't we be able to escape from under the Five Elements Mountain?"

When the others heard this, they slapped their thighs excitedly and said, "Yes, this is called asset restructuring and optimization. Several commercial banks in Qiong Province are doing this now, but they have the court as their backing. If we do this, we will be charged with evading debt."

Fu Chun nodded and said, "This matter does have this risk, so let's discuss it today to see if it is possible to find a reasonable space in the legal policy."

Zhao Shucheng said: "Mr. Fu's proposal is very good, and it is not without feasible methods. This asset restructuring actually occurs frequently in foreign markets, but they call it corporate restructuring. It is generally divided into business restructuring, asset restructuring, debt restructuring, equity restructuring, personnel management system and other models."

"Many of the companies here are not facing problems in terms of business or assets, but rather debt problems that are seriously hindering their development, so what they need to do urgently is debt restructuring."

Fu Chun said excitedly: "It seems that it is right to invite Mr. Lei today. Can you tell us about this debt restructuring so that we can find a new way out for the company?"

"Of course you can. Debt restructuring means that the company's debts are restructured by transferring the debtor's debt responsibility and converting debts into equity. The usual method is debt-to-equity swap, which allows the company to quickly get rid of debts and operate normally. This also involves equity restructuring, which is why equity restructuring is often interrelated with other restructurings."

Zhao Shucheng looked at the others and continued slowly: "Of course, this debt restructuring also includes issuing convertible bonds, bankruptcy liquidation, debtor reorganization, borrowing new debt to repay old debt, and so on."
