“What shall we do if they remain deadlocked. We have to find a way to solve the immediate crisis. What’s your idea, Aunt Jiang?
“She said someone wanted to take over the power by conspiracy but she will not let him do that.”
“The person she mentioned who wanted to take over the power is Xiaodong Su, right? But I think he is not capable to do that. Could he control the share price? ” I doubt that.
“I also believe that first brother dose not have the strength to control share price. That’s why I agreed his proposal. He lived abroad for many years, thus he know some friends in investment community. It’s not wired. If he could fix the problem, then I should support him.”
“But second brother, you also worked in Wall street for a long time. Is your connection worse than his? Why do not you handle it yourself?”
“I do have some friends in Wall Street. But it would be difficult to mobilize a large number of finance. The investors abroad only talk about rules, not friends. Unless you prepared in advance, or it would be late to raise funds from now on. The investors also need to do some procedures to raise funds.”
” Then why Xiaodong Su could raise so many funds in short time? Is that means he prepared for it? Why he prepared? Why did he know there will be a crisis? ”
Second brother kept silent for a while, I knew I got the key point.
If Xiaodong knew there would be a crisis in advance, then it meant he was one of the crisis makers. Or he was not Liang Zhuge (great strategist of post-Han dynasty, China), how could he predict the crisis?
“It’s not too late to investigate it later. Now our priority is to fix the problem. Tomorrow I’m going abroad to deal with daddy’s thing. Someone has to take care of Nanhe Group. If not First Brother, it would be Aunt Jiang. But for now, Aunt couldn’t handle it by herself. Because she is the same as me, no preparation at all. She needs time to prepare.”
I realized that it couldn’t be solved hearing what second brother said. Even though we knew Xiaodong premeditated the crisis, but we had to let him fix it. But Ling Jiang didn’t agree. If it went like this, Nanhe Group would get bigger trouble. Then the result would be no winner. It would be horrible.
“Little sister, don’t worry. We will find a way out. I will persuade Aunt to agree first brother’s plan. As long as Aunt agree, she could persuade the directors to fix it. As long as he could control the trending tendency on the stock exchange and father was bailed, we could survive the crisis. As other things, we will talk later.”
Though second brother comforted me, I felt not good. He was positive, but we all knew that it was not as easy as he thought.
“Okay, sister. I can’t talk with you for too long. Don’t go back to Yang City recently, stay in Hai City. Don’t come back until everything is done.”
I responded sure, but I felt more depressed.
I wanted to call Leon Hua after second brother’s call. But I didn’t at last. I couldn’t bother Leon because of Su Family.
I drove to the innovation park because I had nothing else to do. I came to Tongyu Technology.
I felt it was award when I went inside the company. Surely they knew Nanhe’s stock declined limit. Many of our staff owned our stock. They would be panic facing this kind of situation. Nanhe’s stock was going up slowly these years, but never did it decline limit.
In their eyes, big problem occurred when it happened.
I had to do something within my ability. So I recalled all the directors to the meeting room and told them “Raise your hand if you own the stock of our company.”
What surprised me was each of them raised hand. I never expected there were so many shareholders here in Tongyu.
“You are depressed knowing our stock declined limit, right?”
No one replied, it meant yes.
“I don’t know how many years you’ve been a shareholder. But if you are not new you should know that it is normal for the stock to decline or climb. The market would fluctuate, that’s why we could gain bonus. It’s quite normal, right?”
I looked around and they kept silent.
And one of them asked gently ” But our stock never declined limit as today. It’s rumored that some big problem happened.”
“Of course there will be rumors when our stock declined limit. But you shall understand the reason our stock keep climbing recent two years. It means our group is operating very well. You shall be confident with our group. Why you are so depressed when our stock decline? You don’t trust our company or you don’t trust yourself?”
No one replied, again.
“Each investment has risks. Stock companies told you before you buy the stock, right? So you need to bear its fluctuation. Don’t be panic. Let alone transmit your worry to your subordinates. Or you are not a qualified manager. You got my point?”
Finally they nodded together.
“When crisis come you need to stabilize yourself then will opportunity come. Not even let your panic impact yourself and others. Do your work, work hard. Trust yourself and our leaders. It’s temporary for our stock decline, it will climb one day.”
I was encouraging them, but I was panic in heart. But I had to pretend I was confident.
When the directors went outside, I stayed in the meeting room for a long time alone. They trusted me today, but when the stock decline tomorrow, what should I tell them? How could I persuade them again?
My phone rang, it was Leon.
I was upset and I didn’t want to talk with him. But he kept calling me that I had to answer.
“I saw your car. I’m also in the park. You come here or I go to your office?” Leon asked.
“Mind your own business, we’ll talk at night. I’m blue now.”
“I know you are blue. And no one could help you except me.” Leon was quite confident when he said that.
I didn’t reply, he said “I will go to your office if you don’t come here.”
