Gold Investor

Chapter 21: Shanghai Wind and Cloud (5)
Fang Yubin hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "It's a matter in the company..." Fang Yubin is the deputy investment director of Rongding Capital Shanghai Company, and Su Jin is the deputy general manager of Jianghua Group. Besides, the two companies are still in the stage of cooperation. From any point of view, Fang Yubin should not have told Su Jin what happened to him.But for some reason, after seeing each other, there is always an urge to talk to each other.

In the next hour or so, Fang Yubin told Su Jin the whole story.After the narration, he not only expressed the unhappiness in his heart, but also was full of surprise.These things, I can't keep it secret in front of Qi Yu, but when I came to Su Jin, it turned into a bamboo tube and poured beans.

Fang Yubin couldn't help laughing at himself: "I talk too much today, and I can't control my mouth. When I was young, my father taught me that when a person is just born, he can neither hold back his urine nor control his mouth. When he grows up, They should be able to hold back their urine and control their mouths. Those who can only hold their urine but can’t control their mouths are not mature enough.”

Su Jin was amused: "You really know how to enjoy yourself when you are bitter." She took a sip of coffee, and then said: "As far as I know, you are definitely not a person who can't control your mouth. You can tell me this today, it can only show that You trusted me. I want to thank you for that trust!"

This is such a good and considerate sister, Fang Yubin felt a warm current in his heart: "It is I who want to thank you, listen to me rambling so much."

Su Jin said, "What are you going to do with the current situation?"

Fang Yubin sighed: "Anyway, I can't stay in Rongding any longer, and I'm in contact with a new job, and I haven't settled down yet."

Su Jin asked: "Do you feel unwilling to just admit defeat and leave like this?"

Fang Yubin's face became even more gloomy: "Thinking about how hard I've worked all these years, I didn't make any big mistakes, and I was kicked out just because I got involved in a fight for no reason. Of course I feel useless. But the situation is strong and weak. Apart from admitting defeat, What else can I do?"

Su Jin thought for a while, but said, "Perhaps, you still have a chance to turn defeat into victory."

Fang Yubin could hardly believe his ears.What he was facing was Yan Fei, his immediate boss, and Fei Yunpeng was standing behind Yan Fei.As a little vice director of investment, can I twist my arms over my thighs?
Su Jin said unhurriedly: "According to what you said, Yan Fei intends to defeat Yuan Ruilang, and Fei Yunpeng is behind him. But have you ever thought about it? Fei Yunpeng is the president of Rongding The second-in-command of the capital, to get rid of Yuan Ruilang, is it worth spending so much effort?"

Fang Yubin said: "I couldn't figure it out at first, but later on, I simply stopped thinking about it. No matter why Yuan Ruilang offended Fei Yunpeng, the result is still the same?"

Su Jin shook his head and said: "This point is too critical, you have to think about it." She went on to say: "Fei Yunpeng not only tried his best, but also did it secretly, such as calling you to the office to show his favor. , It's really condescending. If it's just for one Yuan Ruilang, it's too unreasonable! Therefore, there is only one explanation, fighting Yuan is just a means, not an end."

Fang Yubin's hand holding the coffee was hanging in the air: "In Rhodium Capital, Fei Yunpeng is already the second in command, and he can only be so cautious when dealing with one person. This person is the chairman Ding Yifu."

With Su Jin's touch, Fang Yubin immediately connected everything together.Ding Yifu and Hua Zixian, the founder of Jinsheng Group, have been good friends for many years. If there is a problem with Jinsheng Group's project, isn't it a godsend opportunity to bring down Ding Yifu?For Yuan Ruilang, who was no longer a threat, the reason why Fei Yunpeng pursued him was that he completely defeated Yuan Ruilang, so that he could draw out various details of the Jinsheng Group's project.If there are things that are not clear and unclear, Ding Yifu can hardly absolve himself of the blame.

Looking at Su Jin, who was smiling and silent, Fang Yubin really admired him. He was born in a family of officials and had extraordinary insights into the nature of power struggles.

Fang Yubin said slowly: "You mean, you want me to go directly to Ding Yifu for help?"

Su Jin nodded: "I thought this was the last move. Besides, for you, you don't have any worries. Anyway, you are going to leave Rongding, and you don't care about offending one more Ding Yifu."

Fang Yubin clenched his fists: "I'm willing to cut my whole body, dare to pull the emperor off the horse! I'm already like this, so what are you afraid of? Thank you very much this time!"

"You are a smart person, even without my reminder, you will figure it out sooner or later." Su Jin smiled, "But I still have a suggestion."

"Say it quickly." Fang Yubin's eyes were full of expectation.

Su Jin said: "If you see Ding Yifu, don't bother complaining about grievances. A big man like him doesn't care how much you have been wronged. You must have a gift he likes in your hand."

"Understood!" Fang Yubin said.

5 "Elevator Theory" of McKinsey & Company - salespersons must have the ability to introduce solutions to customers within 30 seconds
Several Mercedes-Benz cars lined up on the tarmac of Jiangzhou Airport.More than a dozen people gathered around the car, chatting and looking up at the sky from time to time.

According to the scheduled itinerary, Ding Yifu, chairman of Rongding Capital, will fly to Jiangzhou today.On this trip, he will not only meet with the leaders of the Jiangzhou Municipal Party Committee, but also go to Jinsheng Group, which is in a whirlpool of crisis, for field inspections.

Yan Fei rushed to Jiangzhou one day in advance with a group of executives from the Shanghai company.Ding Yifu's flight is expected to arrive at two o'clock in the afternoon, and Yan Fei and his men wait on the apron an hour earlier.When the flight was about to land, a deputy mayor of Jiangzhou City also came to join the pick-up team.

With Fang Yubin's level, he is not even qualified to pick up the plane at the airport, but he is very nervous.Ding Yifu's trip to Jiangzhou is an excellent opportunity for him to sue the Imperial Court.Ever since he heard the news, he has been planning how to use this opportunity to meet Ding Yifu alone.

Ding Yifu's schedule is very tight.After arriving in Jiangzhou, he immediately exited the airport through the VIP channel and went to the municipal party committee compound to meet with Yang Weiguo, secretary of the Jiangzhou municipal party committee.In the evening, Yang Weiguo hosted a banquet in honor of Ding Yifu and his party.The next morning, Ding Yifu will go to Jianghua Group to have a meeting with Shen Ruping.Noon was originally a luncheon arranged by Shen Ruping, but it was canceled in the end.Because Ding Yifu wanted to take the opportunity of having a working meal to listen to Yan Fei's report on the Shanghai company.In the afternoon, Ding Yifu will go to Jinsheng Group for inspection, and in the evening he will leave Jiangzhou by plane.

Fang Yubin's plan is to use the rest time at night to go to the hotel where Ding Yifu is staying.To this end, he made careful planning.Ding Yifu's Mercedes-Benz car during his stay in Jiangzhou was provided by Jianghua Group.Fang Yubin contacted the driver through Su Jin's relationship.The driver not only found out Ding Yifu's room number, but also promised to send Ding Yifu back to the hotel and immediately notify him.

At 9:[-] in the evening, Fang Yubin finally got a call from the driver, but the result made him very frustrated.The driver said that at the dinner, the leaders of the Jiangzhou Municipal Party Committee kept drinking, and Ding Yifu got very drunk.On the way back to the hotel, I even asked the driver to stop and vomited once by myself.

Hanging up the phone, Fang Yubin scolded fiercely in his heart, Ding Yifu, Ding Yifu, when is it not good for you to get drunk, but why are you going to get drunk today?You don't know, is there something important for me to ask you?

Fang Yubin participated in the second day's event.However, due to his rank, he could only be among the accompanying crowd, and he didn't even have the chance to meet Ding Yifu face to face.Seeing the time passing by every minute and every second, Fang Yubin was really anxious.

At around 3 p.m., Ding Yifu arrived at Jinsheng Group for inspection.At this moment, Fang Yubin didn't even feel anxious.It seems that the overall situation has been settled, and there is no need to struggle.Time is also luck and fate, I am talking about myself!
Just at this time, an unexpected turning point appeared.Ding Yifu learned from an executive of the Jinsheng Group that Hua Zixian's wife was seriously ill a few days ago because of depression. After the operation in the hospital, she was recuperating at home these days.

Perhaps because of the decades of friendship with Hua Zixian, or because of the guilt of being neglected by the Hua family recently, Ding Yifu temporarily decided to visit Mrs. Hua.He ordered his subordinates to compress the inspection itinerary of Jinsheng Group as much as possible, and at the same time change the flight back to Beijing to the last flight at night.Ding Yifu also said that this is a private trip and no one else needs to accompany him.

Hearing the news, Fang Yubin was immediately overjoyed.He quickly slipped out and ran to the door of Hua's villa alone.

Chu Man said that a lean camel is bigger than a horse.Arriving at the gate of Hua's villa, Fang Yubin immediately felt that this statement was true.It is not so much a villa as it is a manor.There are high walls around, and there are black-clothed bodyguards standing guard at the door, and several ferocious wolf dogs are watching everything around them with cold eyes.No matter what Hua Zixian's ending is, no matter how precarious Jinsheng Group is, probably there is no mansion in the territory of Jiangzhou that can surpass the grandeur of Washington.

As soon as Fang Yubin arrived at the door, he was interrogated by the bodyguards. He explained for a long time, but he didn't make it clear.This can't be blamed on Fang Yubin, because it was not clear about this matter.Can he tell the security guard that he is waiting for Ding Yifu to stop the sedan chair and call for injustice?The bodyguard's patience is limited, and an ultimatum has been issued, Fang Yubin must leave immediately, otherwise he will not be polite.The wolfhound in the guardrail also let out a few terrifying growls at this time.

Fang Yubin was anxious and annoyed, couldn't he grasp the last straw?At this moment, he thought of Chu Man.Didn't I help the Hua family, and the young lady of the Hua family came to thank me?Is it necessary for me to stop the sedan chair and cry for injustice?Just ask Chu Man to open the door and welcome me in!
Fang Yubin dialed Chu Man's phone number: "I'm Fang Yubin, and I'm at your door."

In less than 3 minutes, Chu Man came out.She was quite surprised and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Don't talk at the door, let's go in and talk?" Fang Yubin pulled Chu Man and walked inside.

Seeing this, the bodyguard wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Chu Man.Entering the courtyard, Chu Man said, "What can I say now?"

Fang Yubin laughed: "I want to borrow this precious land of yours to meet someone."

Chu Man became more and more surprised: "Who are you seeing?"

Fang Yubin said: "Isn't Yifu Ding coming to visit Mrs. Hua soon? I just want to see Yifu Ding."

Chu Man looked confused: "Ding Yifu is your big boss. You don't meet him at the company, why are you here?"

Fang Yubin bowed his hands: "My dear sister, I really have to trouble you this time. I have something to do in the company and I want to report it to Ding Yifu. In layman's terms, it's just to stop the sedan chair and call for an injustice. It's hard to hope that Ding Yifu will come to Jiangxi State, but there is no chance on other occasions. I heard that he was going to come here, so I rushed here."

Chu Man gradually understood, she then asked: "Who do you want to sue?"

Fang Yubin showed embarrassment: "These are company secrets."

"Okay." Chu Man said briskly, "I said, you are our benefactor. You just stay here, as soon as Ding Yifu comes, I promise you will have a chance to meet alone."

"Thank you so much!" Fang Yubin said gratefully.

Chu Man personally brought Fang Yubin to the study, and asked the servant to brew the first-class Mingqian Longjing.Sitting in this magnificent study, Fang Yubin began another period of anxious waiting.

About an hour later, Fang Yubin heard footsteps outside the study, and a voice said: "What the hell? I came to visit the patient, but you told me not to be busy, let me see another person first."

The thick wooden door of the study opened, and Ding Yifu and Chu Man appeared in front of them.Fang Yubin stood up immediately, and said with trepidation, "Mr. Ding, hello!"

"You are?" Ding Yifu asked.

Fang Yubin hurriedly introduced himself: "I am Fang Yubin, the deputy investment director of the Shanghai company."

Ding Yifu looked at Chu Man suspiciously: "What's going on?"

Chu Man said: "Because of the cooperation at work, we got to know Director Fang. He said that he had something important to report to you, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity." After saying this, Chu Man twisted her slender waist and left gracefully Study room, and gently close the wooden door.

Ding Yifu turned his head and stared at Fang Yubin: "What's the matter?"

Fang Yubin restrained the tension in his heart, and said slowly: "In the past, I found that a group of people in the company were engaged in conspiracy and tricks, planning to use the project of Jinsheng Group to achieve ulterior purposes, even targeting Mr. Ding yourself .”

Fang Yubin had practiced this rhetoric several times.He knows that there is a famous "elevator theory" in salesman training, which means that every salesman must have the ability to introduce a plan to customers within 30 seconds. The "elevator theory" originated from a painful lesson of McKinsey & Company - the company once consulted for an important large client. Ask the project leader of McKinsey & Company: "Can you tell me about the current result?" The project leader was unprepared and could not explain the result clearly within 30 seconds when the elevator went from the 1th floor to the 30st floor.Ultimately, McKinsey & Company lost this important client.Therefore, McKinsey & Company came to the conclusion that everything should be clearly expressed in the shortest possible time, and everything should go straight to the subject and the result.

Fang Yubin is not promoting a product today, but making a gamble of fate.Ding Yifu might not even give him 30 seconds.Therefore, you must use a simple and clear opening statement to attract the attention of the other party.

After Fang Yubin finished speaking, the room fell into a brief silence.The silence lasted only a few seconds, but Fang Yubin felt like years passed by.After all, Su Jin's analysis was based on assumptions.Once he makes a mistake in his judgment, he is very likely to be kicked out by Ding Yifu immediately.

Ding Yifu sat on the sofa and said flatly, "Sit down and talk."

It seemed that Ding Yifu was interested in listening to what he had to say, and Fang Yubin felt relieved.This was Fang Yubin's first close contact with Ding Yifu.I saw the other party's short and puffy figure, a chubby face, under the red-brown shiny forehead, two curved eyebrows, and a pair of slender eyes, his face was like a Maitreya Buddha.Ding Yifu was born in the army in his early years, but with this face, he really doesn't have much military temperament.

Fang Yubin has already simulated it many times, so he doesn't need to organize his thoughts at this moment. He blurted out: "After the problem occurred in the Jinsheng Group project, there was an undercurrent in the Shanghai company. After becoming the general manager, he talked to me several times. On the surface, he asked me to expose Yuan Ruilang, but in fact, he intended to dig out the so-called tricks in this project. Out of consideration for the overall situation of the company, I rejected Yan Fei."

Fang Yubin kept in mind Su Jin's teachings, don't complain too much about what happened to him, because these are definitely not what Ding Yifu is interested in.Therefore, he only briefly mentioned his grievances, but talked about how Yan Fei collected all kinds of black materials.

Fang Yubin also grasped a principle, never involving Fei Yunpeng, let alone saying that what Yan Fei did was ordered by Fei Yunpeng.As Fang Yubin, it is inconvenient to say everything clearly.At the same time, he also firmly believed that if Ding Yifu couldn't even hear this subtext, he wouldn't have sat on the chairman's position for so many years.

Ding Yifu was sitting on the sofa, playing with the lid of the teacup expressionlessly. No one could tell whether he was interested in what Fang Yubin said.After Fang Yubin finished speaking, the room fell into silence again.After a while, Ding Yifu said casually, "That's all?"

Fang Yubin felt a little guilty. He didn't know whether his own words failed to impress Ding Yifu, or the other party had already practiced the ability to hide his emotions and anger.Of course he wasn't going to stop there.Because I still have a carefully prepared "gift" in my hand.

Fang Yubin continued: "In addition to this incident, I also found that Yan Fei abused his power and did things that harmed the public and benefited his own interests not long after he took office."

Fang Yubin took out a stack of documents from his purse: "This is the list of projects approved by the investment committee of the Shanghai company last week. One of the companies whose legal representative is Zheng Shicheng is a company with a very bad operating condition. However, in Yan With Fei's help, he passed the review and is about to receive the investment money."
