Li Mu understood the principle of leaving professional matters to professionals, and he entrusted Goldman Sachs to handle the Olkus equity acquisition and investment plan.
So far, progress is good.
Due to the lukewarm reception of VR technology in global capital markets, many of Olkus' early investors are looking to exit, but finding buyers is proving difficult.
Li Mu's appearance was perfectly timed; several investment institutions have already expressed their intention to sell their Olkus shares, with only some disagreement on the price, which is currently under further negotiation.
A deal is expected to be reached within one or two months.
At that time, the short-selling plan was completed, and he had enough funds to support his plan.
Chapter 12 President Meng's Strategy
That day, Li Mu was practicing shooting at a gun club. Since he lived in America, how could he not play with guns?
In addition, he is now financially independent and has little pressure, so he has been living a very carefree life lately.
After playing for a while, I was about to have a cup of coffee when my phone rang. It was Mingyu.
She's currently in the US for a visit and study trip, and since she lives near the Bay Area, she plans to come and give me a tour.
We agreed on a time, chatted for a while longer, and then hung up.
……
The next day, Li Mu drove to the airport to pick him up according to the flight schedule.
After waiting for a short while, I saw Mingyu, dressed in a black trench coat, looking capable and neat, walking over with her suitcase.
"Mingyu!"
"Big brother!"
The two hugged gently, and Li Mu smiled and said, "Mingyu, you look great. Welcome to visit."
Mingyu smiled and said, "Big brother, thank you and sister-in-law for your trouble."
"Don't be so polite. We're not strangers, brother and sister. Let's go home first." With that, he took Mingyu's suitcase and pulled her out of the airport terminal.
When they arrived at the parking lot, Mingyu was a little surprised to see that Li Mu was driving a Bentley Continental. This was a top-of-the-line luxury car, and it seemed that her older brother was doing quite well in the United States.
The two chatted along the way and soon arrived home.
Mingyu suppressed her curiosity and watched as the car entered the wealthy area and stopped at a luxurious manor villa.
Then, seeing his sister-in-law Wu Fei and two Filipino maids coming to greet him, he was even more surprised.
With luxury cars, mansions, and Filipino maids, it's clear that her brother is doing much better in the US than she is in China.
Although she can be considered a strong woman and has already achieved great success.
But look at the living conditions of my elder brother's family now, that's what a true success story is, achieving financial freedom.
Although Wu Fei and Ming Yu had met a few times online and knew what each other looked like, this was their first time meeting in real life.
"Sister-in-law!"
"Mingyu!"
……
As Mingyu got out of the car, Wu Fei immediately greeted her warmly, and Mingyu quickly followed.
The two held hands and chatted politely for a while.
The Filipino maid led Xiaomi over, and Wu Fei immediately picked Xiaomi up, pointing at Mingyu and saying, "Xiaomi, this is your auntie, quickly call her auntie..."
Little Mi blinked her big, bright eyes, looking a little shy. Encouraged by Wu Fei, she finally spoke, "Auntie..."
Mingyu's heart melted when she saw the adorable little girl calling her "Auntie".
He took another step closer, grasped her small hand, and gently called out, "Xiao Mi, hello!"
"This is a gift from your aunt. Do you like it?" she said, taking out a very exquisite gold lock.
Xiao Mi reached out and took it, seemingly a little shy. Holding the gold lock in one hand, she buried her head in Wu Fei's arms, only occasionally glancing up at Ming Yu with curiosity in her eyes.
It seemed as if someone was wondering, "Who is my aunt?"
……
After settling Mingyu in a guest room on the second floor, Wu Fei, true to her womanly nature, enthusiastically led Mingyu on a tour of the villa.
After working hard in the United States for so many years, becoming the pride of her relatives and friends and the pride of her parents, Wu Fei knew that her life was not as good as others imagined.
Many of her classmates who stayed in China are actually doing better than her.
However, you can't say that you should be humble when others ask; you still have to save face.
Now, she no longer needs to maintain appearances. With Li Mu's successful speculation in virtual currency and the family's financial freedom, she has lived the life she dreamed of, even better than her relatives and friends imagined.
No longer feeling guilty and reserved, but confident and poised.
After touring the entire building, Mingyu was quite shocked, especially when she saw another pink Bentley Continental, which she knew belonged to her sister-in-law, Wu Fei.
The blue and pink colors, placed together, were dazzling, making Mingyu even a little envious of her older brother and sister-in-law's comfortable life.
Wu Fei was also quite content. Although she wasn't the type to show off, her sudden financial freedom made her want to share it with others and let more people know. Given the opportunity, no one wants to keep their wealth hidden.
Mingyu perfectly satisfied her desire to share, and being a salesperson, she was very good at talking. In a short time, the two became familiar with each other, like best friends who could talk about anything.
And so, Mingyu settled down at home, and every day or two she would go out for a visit and study trip.
They were having a wonderful time.
……
Time flies. That day, Mingyu received a phone call. Her face showed some anxiety. After hesitating for a while, she began to pack her things, planning to return to China.
Mingyu's trip to the United States was ostensibly for sightseeing and learning, but in reality, it was deliberately arranged by President Meng to keep her away. He gave her a month's leave, telling her to enjoy herself and do whatever she wanted in the US, but not to concern herself with company affairs.
On the one hand, the Jiangnan Company, which is managed by Mingyu, is too important to the head office, and it is full of Mingyu's confidants. The head office is completely impenetrable to her, and President Meng does have the idea of taking the opportunity to consolidate power.
On the other hand, Mingyu was sent to the United States this time, which meant she was ostensibly sidelined, and the head office took the opportunity to consolidate power, which Mingyu also suspected.
But since President Meng had done her a favor, she accepted the decision to relinquish power and promptly went to the United States.
Secretly, this was also part of President Meng's plan. Taking back power was only one aspect; the main purpose was to expose the company's shortcomings and loopholes, thereby drawing out certain individuals to step forward.
Before Zhongcheng went public, some people within the company were purged. Those who were disloyal to the company and were greedy were all to be laid off, with the biggest target being Vice President Sun and his gang.
Sending Mingyu away was partly to consolidate power, partly to prevent her from disrupting the plan to lure the enemy out, and also to keep her out of trouble. In a way, it was to protect her.
……
However, Mingyu was unaware of all this. She had just received a call from Liu Qing, and Lao Meng had disappeared without a trace. The company was completely under the control of Vice President Sun.
Then they began to vigorously promote the supervision system, and installed supervisors and their cronies in the Jiangnan and Jiangbei companies. Liu Qing and other managers were completely sidelined, and they had to get the supervisors' approval for everything they did.
Sales is a service industry, and timeliness is paramount. Sometimes customers need the goods urgently, and we have to arrange delivery in the middle of the night.
Now that a supervision system has been implemented, shipments require supervisor approval. It's impossible to ship goods in the middle of the night, and it might even be delayed for several days.
As a result, the company has lost many customers and several big orders in recent days, while its competitor, Liujin Company, has made a fortune.
With President Meng nowhere to be found, and Vice President Sun continuing down this path, not only are they enriching their rival company, but Zhongcheng Company is also in danger.
Mingyu even suspected that Vice President Sun was an undercover agent sent by the rival company.
As one of the founding members of Zhongcheng, and with President Meng having been kind to her, Mingyu couldn't stay in the United States any longer. She packed her bags and was about to return to China.
Li Mu was naturally aware of all this. Mingyu had immediately fallen into a quagmire of conflict upon returning to China. Although she once again proved her loyalty to President Meng with her actions, she had also complicated a simple plan to lure the enemy out of their hole.
After returning to China, Mingyu led a group of people to confront Vice President Sun, disrupting his large-scale installation of cronies. This greatly reduced the effectiveness of President Meng's plan to lure out the enemy, and many people were not exposed.
President Meng had no choice but to feign illness, even critical illness, to lure these people out. This was almost sabotaged by Mingyu, who was wholeheartedly devoted to the company and opposed Vice President Sun.
Furthermore, in order to prevent the audit, he had to take action against Julie, which enraged Mingcheng, resulting in him being beaten and triggering a series of subsequent events.
President Meng's original plan to lure the enemy out of their hole was made increasingly complicated by the loyal Mingyu. In the end, although he achieved his goal, he also suffered considerable losses.
This is a classic example of good intentions gone wrong.
……
This incident also exposed President Meng's true businessman nature; he doesn't trust anyone, not even his loyal Mingyu.
If President Meng could reveal some of his plan to Mingyu, with Mingyu's cooperation, I believe the goal could be achieved very easily.
But he deliberately spoke vaguely to Mingyu and sent her to the United States, preventing the anxious Mingyu from sitting down and calmly considering the unreasonable aspects of the matter.
They made something simple increasingly complicated.
……
Chapter 13 Insight
Seeing that Mingyu was packing her things and wanted to return to her country, Li Mu naturally wanted to stop her.
"Mingyu, didn't we agree to stay in the United States for a full month? It's only been a short time, why are you going back to China already?"
In the past, Mingyu might have glossed over it, but now the two are much closer, and her older brother looks like a successful businessman.
This gave a general idea of the company's current situation.
