Chapter 300: Trouble
"As a company grows, factional disputes are inevitable. If I hadn't recovered the funds in time this time, I'm afraid my Anxia Group would have changed hands by the beginning of next spring."
Lin Zheping leaned back on the sofa and said in a calm voice.
Although he said this lightly, Chen Jianghe could hear the treacherous internal turmoil and treacherous factional struggles in his words.
"I suffered a loss due to the equity structure. On the surface, I am the founder and chairman of Anxia Group, but in fact, the two major shareholders of the company have more control over the company than I do. Your Light Chaser and Homesick Real Estate Agency must not repeat the same mistake." Lin Zheping reminded earnestly.
For a business legend like Lin Zheping who built his business from scratch, it is almost a shame that he cannot gain absolute control of his own company, because once the two major shareholders have a dispute, it is very likely that he, the founder, will be the one to be eliminated.
"I have divided the company's equity and control. Shareholders will only participate in dividends and will not be involved in the company's operations. I will firmly control the voting rights on major company affairs in my own hands," said Chen Jianghe.
"That's right."
Lin Zheping glanced at Chen Jianghe with an admiring look on his face: "It's not easy for your Light Chaser to develop to this level. If you seize the opportunity, it will definitely have a place in the business landscape of the Internet era."
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "If you stand on the right vent, even a pig can take off."
"My words are a little blunt, but the truth is there." Lin Zheping nodded in agreement, and then asked, "Have you done any research on new energy vehicles?"
"I've paid attention to it, but I haven't studied it much." Chen Jianghe responded modestly.
In fact, even though new energy vehicles were still in the stage where concepts were flying all over the place but mass production was difficult, Chen Jianghe had already set his sights on BYD.
He doesn't want to cooperate with BYD in building cars, but he is mainly preparing to buy BYD shares with a large sum of money before Mr. Buffett and invest in the new energy vehicle field.
In addition, it is also extremely interesting for Chen Jianghe to have the opportunity to compete with the technology fanatic in North America.
"A few friends asked me to invest in new energy vehicles. I don't know much about this industry. I thought young people would be more interested in this area. I didn't expect you to be similar to me." Lin Zheping smiled heartily: "But I still want to hear your opinion."
Speaking of investment, in order to prevent his father-in-law from being fooled, Chen Jianghe smiled and put forward his opinion: "From an investment perspective, I think the new energy vehicle field can be deployed in advance, because the market space is very broad and the country is also prepared to vigorously support it. However, this industry is currently mixed, and many of them set up projects to defraud loans and investments. In my opinion, BYD, which started out as a battery manufacturer, is the only first choice for investment in China."
Lin Zheping's eyes lit up when he heard this. Before coming here, he had communicated with Mr. Ye Yuan, a well-known domestic investor, and the investment advice he gave was almost exactly the same as Chen Jianghe's suggestion just now.
"This kid is a genius in business and investment."
Lin Zheping looked at Chen Jianghe seriously, thinking that his daughter had very good taste.
Of course, as a person who has been through this, Lin Zheping is a little worried. Chen Jianghe is so outstanding, and there must be no shortage of beautiful women and various temptations around him. His daughter is now devoted to him, and it is still unknown whether she can find true happiness in the future.
"No matter what, I still believe that my daughter, Lin Zheping, will not make a mistake in choosing someone." Lin Zheping thought to himself.
Lin Siqi looked at his father and said with a smile: "Dad, your eyes are almost closed, are you feeling sleepy from the alcohol?"
"I wasn't sleepy at first, but after you said that, I couldn't help but yawn."
Lin Zheping smiled and stretched his arms. After yawning several times, he stood up, patted Chen Jianghe on the shoulder and said, "If you have time at the end of the year, go home with Xiao Qi to celebrate the New Year. If you are busy, we can talk about it later."
"Okay." Chen Jianghe smiled and nodded. The Spring Festival only lasts one day. If Xu Zhixi, Jiang Yishu and Lin Siqi all want to celebrate the New Year with him, it would be a bit too much for him to handle.
Fortunately, his father-in-law is a kind person and not a patriarchal person. Chen Jianghe feels very happy about this.
"We can go home together to celebrate the Little New Year." Lin Siqi suggested with a smile: "The company happens to be closed on the Little New Year."
"suitable."
Chen Jianghe and Lin Zheping nodded in agreement at the same time , then looked at each other, their tacit understanding was at its peak.
The suggestions put forward were adopted by the two "bosses", and Lin Siqi smiled with a happy face.
"Let's go. Let's take a nap on the way back to Shenzhen."
Lin Zheping waved and walked out.
Chen Jianghe saw him off. Before getting in the car, he leaned close to Lin Zheping's ear and said, "Dad, if the factional struggle within Anxia is uncontrollable or eventually affects your control over the company, my suggestion is to strike first."
"Well, I know what's going on." Lin Zheping nodded, and then sighed slightly: "The two major shareholders are very wealthy. They are taking advantage of the recent decline in the company's stock price to continuously buy and increase their shareholding ratio. It's a bit difficult to deal with."
"As long as money can solve the problem, it's a small problem."
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "You can take advantage of them. I'm more experienced in stock matters."
"Is there anything you are not good at?" Lin Zheping asked with a smile.
"Yes." Chen Jianghe nodded.
"For example?" Lin Zheping asked.
"Exams," Chen Jianghe said seriously, "Especially math, which has always been my nightmare."
"Haha." Lin Zheping laughed, put his arm around Chen Jianghe's shoulders and said, "You and I are similar in this respect. I handed in a blank math paper in junior high school, but it wasn't because I didn't know how to do it. I just wanted to tell the teachers that I could make a name for myself even without studying."
"Now I think I was pretty stupid. If I had studied harder for a few more years, I wouldn't have taken so many detours after graduation." Lin Zheping changed the subject.
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "In life, no matter what choice you make, there will always be regrets."
"You are so young, but you are so clear-headed. No wonder you are successful."
Lin Zheping and Chen Jianghe got along very well. If he hadn't had an important meeting in the afternoon, he would have been reluctant to leave.
"Boss, what did Dad talk to you about just now? Why are you laughing so happily?"
After Lin Zheping left in the car, the secretary hopped up to Chen Jianghe like a rabbit and asked with a faint smile.
"Dad asked me when I will marry you." Chen Jianghe leaned close to Lin Siqi's ear and whispered.
"Hmm?" Lin Siqi's heart suddenly started beating faster and his heart was pounding like a deer.
"Do you want to know how I answered?" Chen Jianghe asked.
"I want to!" Lin Siqi nodded without hesitation.
"Keep it secret." Chen Jianghe smiled wickedly.
"Ah." Lin Siqi couldn't help stamping his feet.
At this time, a Phantom with a Guangdong East license plate and five "6"s on it slowly stopped in front of the light chaser's door, followed by several high-end luxury cars, making for a grand occasion.
The car door opened and a young man got out first. Chen Jianghe thought he looked familiar, but he didn't know who he was.
Then a gorgeously dressed woman got out from the passenger seat. Chen Jianghe recognized her at first sight: Li Niantao.
