After Dulin hung up the phone, he asked Ellis to send all the things to Luke. Before evening, Luke's lawyer called. In order to kick out the "liar" Du Lin as quickly as possible, Luke did this very carefully. He invited the three most outstanding financial companies in Ilian to evaluate the original Eastern Star Entertainment Company. The results came out in the afternoon. According to the financial records and various bills in Dulin's hands, the market value of Eastern Star Entertainment Company was suppressed. Hundreds of thousands, the total market value of Nanfang Movies, excluding fractions, is 11.8 million yuan.
According to the explanation of breach of contract in the supplementary clauses of the agreement, Luke asked the lawyer to send a cashier's check of 5.9 million yuan without even showing up. Although this number was more than one million higher than what Juan said, Luke still pinched his nose and admitted it. He would get the money back, but not now.
The lawyer talked about the situation and asked Dulin to sign some documents, proving that Dulin had returned his equity to Luke through the breach of contract clause of another agreement, and received 5.9 million yuan. Cashier's check, from now on, Southern Cinema and Dulin no longer had a dime to do with each other. Dulin had no objection to this. He directly signed all the agreements and sent Luke's lawyer to leave.
He sat and thought for a moment, then picked up the phone and made a call to Joshua who was far away on Xie Lisi Street in the imperial capital. The content of the call was very simple, only four words - the call will be closed at the end of the month.
Then he made a phone call to James, the president of the Illian branch of the Imperial Bank, and invited him to dinner. James, who was very sensitive to business changes among the rich people in Ilian, immediately agreed to Dulin's invitation. He knew about the withdrawal of shares, and he knew even more that Dulin now had close to 6 million in cash. This cash is a big sum for him as the bank president. If he can leave this money at the Ilian branch, he will look much better at the end of the year.
Dinner was booked at Alexander's hotel, and a separate side room was opened for the two of them to dine. James came earlier, and Dulin arrived shortly after.
After serving the food, Du Lin placed a business card on the table and slowly pushed it over. Then, without saying a word, he began to taste the dishes Alexander had specially prepared for him that evening. The main dish is a good steak, which Ilian has sold for ninety-eight yuan a pound, and it's still raw. If you don't sell a steak like this for one hundred and ninety-nine yuan after it's done, you'll be losing money.
James looked down at the business card strangely, and his mind suddenly went blank, and then a faint excitement arose amidst the uneasiness. This simple-looking business card only had a name and a phone number on it. The two connection numbers in front of the phone number were from the Imperial Capital, and the following numbers were unfamiliar to him. The name he was familiar with was that of one of the three chairman of the Board of Directors of the Imperial Central Bank.
This business card may cost less than ten cents from design to production, but with this name and number signed on it, it is worth ten thousand yuan, one hundred thousand yuan, or even one million yuan!
Not everyone has the right to call this number. Even if Dulin gave him this business card, he would not dare to call this number. He pushed the business card back respectfully, smiled enviously and said, "This business card has a very special meaning, you must keep it safe!"
Du Lin put the business card into his pocket. He put down his knife and fork and dipped his napkin into his lips. "The steak is very good. Try it."
James picked up the knife and fork, cut off a piece and put it in his mouth, and couldn't help but nod, "It's good, the ingredients are very good, and the chef's skills are also very good. This is the most perfect steak I have eaten this year!"
"It may be a bit presumptuous to ask this. I would like to ask, what will you do if I can't redeem the things I mortgaged in the bank after the expiration date?" Dulin took out a cigarette and gestured. James waved. Wave your hands.
Perhaps because of the effect of the business card, James did not answer immediately, but really thought about it, "We will have two plans. If the mortgaged assets have a high rate of return, we will write a mortgage asset self-operation plan." The reports are submitted to the head office, and the head office will approve these reports at the weekly board of directors. Once they consider them to be enforceable, they will arrange manpower to directly operate them. The finance generated by the operations will first make up for the loan deficit, and then generate funds. Except for a small part of the profits that will be given to the executing branch, the rest will be turned over to the head office.”
"There is another possibility that the profit generated by the mortgaged assets does not meet expectations, and we will conduct a public auction. There are actually two situations. If the market value of the mortgaged assets itself is very high, the head office will arrange special personnel to conduct the auction. Split them up and then auction them separately to maximize benefits. Generally speaking, small and medium-sized non-high-profit assets are directly auctioned.”
James asked a little strangely: "Do you need a loan? Don't worry, Mr. Dulin, I will definitely give you the largest amount and the lowest interest. You are one of the most important customers of our central bank."
Dulin shook his head and did not answer the question. Instead, he continued to ask, "If I skip one or two of the steps, can I get these assets directly from the bank?"
This is an obvious illegal operation. The larger the organization, the more rules and regulations it has. Some people may think that this approach is very rigid and limits everyone's work enthusiasm and creativity. Perhaps for some employees, this is indeed a rule that they cannot understand, but for the organization itself, this system is a necessary condition to maintain its continuation.
If everyone can break away from the rules and do things according to their own ideas, the larger the enterprise, the faster it will collapse.
James understood this very well. He lowered his head and looked at the delicious steak on the plate and thought for a long time before showing some smile. He knew very well that the question Dulin raised was definitely because he wanted to get something from the bank's collateral. According to the rules and regulations, James should refuse, but the meaning of the business card of the chairman of the board of directors was real. It's too big.
The Imperial Bank is actually like a miniature national government. For middle-level managers like him, it is not as safe as those at the bottom. If low-level employees do something wrong, they will at most be scolded and deducted a small amount of money. They will continue to go to work tomorrow when they are supposed to go to work. But what about middle managers? If they do something wrong, it will definitely not be a small matter. Not only will they lose their excellent job, but they may also be required by the bank to hold them accountable and compensate for losses, and they may even go to jail.
They enjoy more generous treatment and benefits, but of course they also need to bear more fatal risks. If there is no "own person" on the board of directors, who knows when, he may be kicked out of the bank because of something that has nothing to do with him.
And this is not an ordinary business card, it is the chairman's business card. For this relationship, James doesn't mind tampering a little.
"What do you want?", he picked up the knife and fork and continued to eat the steak on the plate. At this point, there was nothing he couldn't let go of.
Dulin did not whet his appetite and stated his thoughts directly, "I want the liquor license, brewing license and liquor selling license that Juan pledged."
James was stunned for a moment. He immediately realized something, but he didn't think deeply. He pondered for a while and then nodded, "This is not a problem at all, but it will take a while. Only if he is sure that he cannot repay the bank loan Only after the principal and interest are determined by himself can we operate this matter," he said with a smile, "and I personally think this is not an easy thing, once Juan and the George family have negotiated. For cooperation matters, some banks are willing to provide him with funds, and he can redeem these assets.”
"That's my business, isn't it?" Du Lin picked up the knife and fork and cut off a piece of beef. While looking at James, he put the beef into his mouth and chewed it twice. James could clearly see the rise and fall of Du Lin's throat. It slid. For some reason, he swallowed and felt inexplicably uneasy. Dulin's eyes were calm. He glanced at the dishes on the table and asked, "Are we friends? Mr. James?"
James's heartbeat was accelerating. He didn't understand why Dulin suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression. He hooked his fingers around the collar and pulled it outward, nodded and said, "Yes, we are friends!"
"Ha, I knew we must be good friends, come and try the dishes I prepared for my friends!"
After eating, James left with a bag given to him by Du Lin. He had been dealing with money for almost his whole life. When he touched it, he knew what was inside, which was at least fifty thousand yuan. This was the favor fee that Du Lin gave him. He didn't intend to accept the favor fee that was given in advance, but in Du Lin's unclear eyes, he accepted it anyway. After returning home, he hid the bag of money in a secret compartment, then walked back and forth a few steps, picked up a bottle of Paradise from the desk and stuffed it into his mouth.
He and Juan had a good relationship and were very good old friends. He wanted to call Juan and tell Juan that Du Lin was interested in his liquor license. But every time he touched the phone, he remembered Du Lin's look when he finally sent him away. That look was very scary, as if what was in the focus of Du Lin's eyes was not a person, but an object, or something else. .
He thought for a long time and finally decided to reveal a little bit of the news to Juan. But the moment he picked up the phone and put it to his ear, he put the phone back in despair.
Because... the phone line is down.
Suddenly I saw a lot of rewards from big guys. The big guy who changed the world with one knife has been supporting me since the last book. There are also the big yellow croaker, silver poppy, Fredpzl, blue lotus Tianya Lu Fengsha, book friend XX and dog management. The revival of divinity, there are also many side quests and rewards from other readers. There are too many to mention here. In fact, I rarely read about rewards. This is the first time I have read the book. As the same saying goes, giving rewards is a matter of affection, and not giving rewards is a duty. I hope everyone will do according to their ability. We will neither fight nor compare, code quietly, and read happily.
