Chapter 473 Debt Crisis, Imperial College
Chapter 473 Debt Crisis, Imperial College
Half past six in the morning.
After an autumn rain, the temperature began to rise.
The sunlight shines through the gaps in the curtains, illuminating the entire bedroom.
Shen Yuyan slowly sat up from the soft bed, with a hint of tiredness still on his face.
Although it was the weekend yesterday, she was still busy until very late.
The cooperation with Xucheng Property has been basically finalized, but the requirements put forward by the other party are also quite demanding, requiring them to customize a separate service package.
Now Zhang Tianqi has completely taken care of the company's affairs, Hou Shaoyuan has also completely withdrawn, and she is currently the only manager of the company.
All the company's business and development need her to personally oversee.
Although he holds great power, the pressure is much greater than he imagined.
However, as long as the bet agreement can be completed, everything will get better and better.
Yawning, Shen Yuyan lifted the quilt and sat down on the edge of the bed. He picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table, unlocked the screen, and habitually opened Tang Song's chat window.
Looking at the chat records above, I couldn't help but sigh.
Over the weekend, she sent several messages to Tang Song.
In addition to discussing with him the Green Lemon Technology Conference and the impact of AI on various fields, he also sent him selfies and invited him to dinner.
But without exception, he rejected them all on the grounds of being busy.
And the response was very perfunctory.
This was a heavy blow to her, who had been popular and arrogant since childhood.
It made her start to doubt herself.
If it was before, she would definitely not lick her face and force herself to get close, but now...
Her mind recalled the scenes of her previous encounters with Tang Song.
He stood on the roadshow stage, he walked out of the elevator with his due diligence team, he was surrounded by people standing at the Lanfeng International Hotel, and he appeared at the international fashion exhibition with Zheng Qiudong.
Her breathing gradually became rapid, a faint blush appeared on her face, and she couldn't help but start to get naughty.
Today, the Tang and Song dynasties are full of mystery and unknown in her eyes.
It was also the first time that she truly felt an irresistible charm from a man.
After being in a daze for a while, Shen Yuyan opened Tang Song's chat box.
The message reads: "Good morning~ A new day has begun! By the way, the weekend is over, are you still busy? (#playful)"
After sending the message, Shen Yuyan cursed in a low voice: "Dog licker!"
After saying this, her eyes widened and tears welled up in her eyes.
Tang Song's behavior always made her feel anxious and worried, so she neither took the initiative nor refused.
This feeling of fear of losing made her both irritated and addicted, as if it was an elaborately designed game, and she couldn't be sure whether she was the hunter or the prey.
But the existence of her best friend Qingqing makes her seem particularly conflicted, entangled and struggling.
Shen Yuyan would sometimes call herself a slut, but she couldn't help but want to get close to him.
After sending the message, Shen Yuyan stood up and walked out to start her daily washing and skin care routine.
But his eyes always wandered on the phone screen, waiting for Tang Song's reply.
"Ding-dong-"
[Tang Song: "The most important thing has been done. What about you? I heard from Qingqing that Youjie Housekeeping has secured a big customer and the second round of financing will be received soon."]
Shen Yuyan's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly replied: "Yes, I am the only one left in the company's founding team. I am super busy, but fortunately everything is going well. The number of client users has basically reached the target. As long as the performance keeps up, Youjie Housekeeping will be on the right track."
【Tang Song: "(#Like) Campus Beauty Shen is amazing. She has also successfully started her own business. She is a strong woman."】
Seeing his praise, Shen Yuyan showed an excited smile on his face.
She was indeed determined to "surrender" to Tang Song, but she was unwilling to be looked down upon by him as a loser and a bootlicker.
She participated in the "Yanzhao Youth Entrepreneurship Support Program" and tried her best to make Youjie Housekeeping better, all in order to make her resume better.
The two chatted briefly.
The smile on Shen Yuyan's face became brighter and brighter.
I feel that Tang Song is particularly talkative today and responds particularly quickly.
Pinching his fingers, Shen Yuyan quickly walked to the floor-length mirror.
I turned on the camera on my phone, adjusted my posture, and turned my body slightly towards the camera.
One hand gently lifted the hem of the loose white T-shirt, revealing a tight and flat belly and faintly visible waistline.
The other hand naturally plays with the loose hair around the ear, creating a lazy feeling of just waking up.
There was a "click" and the photo was frozen.
Shen Yuyan took a look and felt that it was still not attractive enough.
After thinking about it, I simply took off my thin pajamas, and took another photo wearing just a loose T-shirt and underwear.
The photo was cropped to just reveal the edge of the underwear, and the lighting and filters were adjusted using photo editing software to make the picture appear softer and more charming.
Soon, a pure and sexy morning selfie was taken.
Biting her lip, Shen Yuyan shared the photo on Tang Song's WeChat.
After carefully considering my words, I typed: "Hey, I just realized that my waistline is back, haha, please allow me to show off a little, after all, this is the result of my hard work in fitness (#嘿哈哈)"
Before sending it, she hesitated for a second and deliberately deleted the last smiley face expression and replaced it with a slightly playful period.
It seems like he is testing, but also like he is restraining himself.
I put down my phone, but my heartbeat quickened unconsciously.
She has high emotional intelligence and IQ, and knows how to use her advantages to attract his attention. She also knows that men are most vulnerable to this kind of ambiguous little flirtation.
"Buzzing—"
[Tang Song: "She is so self-disciplined despite being so busy at work. No wonder School Beauty Shen has such a great figure. Haha, keep an eye on Qingqing when you have time and ask her to exercise with you."]
Seeing his reply, Shen Yuyan's eyes flickered and he replied: "Hehe, thank you for the compliment! As for Qingqing~, this stupid girl is so lazy and is only interested in one sport."
【Tang Song: "Oh? What sport?"】
Shen Yuyan deliberately did not reply immediately, but applied the eye cream first and wiped her fingers.
Then he typed word by word: "Bed exercise, I can't help her with this."
After thinking about it, he sent another emoticon with a squinting smile.
【Tang Song: You are so hot.gif】
Seeing the emoticon package he sent, Shen Yuyan's eyes twitched and his face turned slightly red.
At this moment.
"Click--Squeak--" The door was suddenly pushed open.
Xu Qing, wearing cartoon pajamas, walked in dazedly, "Yanyan, what are you having for breakfast this morning?"
Shen Yuyan's face instantly became awkward, and he quickly put away his phone, "I'll go downstairs to buy soy milk and fried dough sticks later."
"Yeah, you've worked hard, baby!" Xu Qing went forward and hugged her bestie. She tilted her head and glanced at her long bare legs. She said enviously, "Obviously, our height difference is not that big, why do your legs feel so long?"
"The body proportions are different." Shen Yuyan smiled playfully, opened the wardrobe and started changing clothes.
Xu Qing fell headfirst onto her bed, mumbling with a bitter face: "Yanyan, what do you think I should do? I don't know what's wrong with that little girl Xiaojing. She suddenly became so cunning that I don't even dare to chat with her, but she keeps pestering me."
Ever since being caught, Xiaojing has become her nightmare, the kind that can really scare her awake in her dreams.
Shen Yuyan put on a shirt and trousers, turned around and said, "You will have to show your cards sooner or later. She is also Tang Song's girlfriend. It's good to establish a good relationship in advance."
Xu Qing twisted her body hard, "Oh, I don't want to play with her."
"I'm talking about friendship. Why do I feel like your mind is full of pornography? Xiao Jing doesn't have any bad intentions. It will be good for you to get along with her."
"You don't know how perverted she is. Last night she even came to me to discuss the plot of an H comic."
Shen Yuyan rolled her eyes at her in annoyance, "You are writing a hentai novel yourself, and you still have the nerve to call others perverted?"
“This is different! She…she…” Xu Qing’s face turned red and she stammered, unable to speak.
She didn't tell her best friend everything about Xiaojing because some of the content was too perverted, such as "threesome" and "belt whipping".
Now that she was caught, Xiaojing had the evidence against her, and she had to chat with her. It was so frustrating.
Xu Qing stayed up late last night to write, and abused Bai Jing in the novel, which made her feel a little better.
"Okay, I'm going downstairs to buy breakfast. You should go and get yourself ready." Shen Yuyan patted her head, turned and walked out.
Xu Qing sat up with a groan.
"Buzz buzz buzz--" the phone vibrated.
[Xiao Jing: "Sister Qingqing, my boyfriend is coming to our company for a meeting this afternoon. I want to play some games with him. Do you think we should do it in the office? Or in the corridor of the office building? We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I can't help but want to be taught a lesson by him."]
Xu Qing's face turned pale, and she quickly replied, "Don't mess around. What if someone finds out in the office?"
Although Xiao Songzi was a little bit hateful, he was still very nice to her.
If she really was assimilated into a pervert under Xiaojing's guidance, she would have to suffer in the future!
[Xiao Jing: "That's the atmosphere I want. It's so exciting! Sister Qingqing, you and your boyfriend can try it too. It's very interesting."]
"Ah! Perverted Xiaojing!" Xu Qing's face turned red instantly. She rolled over on the bed for a few rounds, then grabbed a pillow and smashed it against the phone screen.
……
Yanjing Huating, large flat.
Beautiful and gorgeous dressing room.
"Hahaha--"
Xiaojing held on to the wardrobe and laughed so hard that she was shaking with laughter.
"Oops!" The platinum ring on her hand accidentally fell off.
Xiao Jing quickly squatted down to pick it up. Looking at the small gift, she thought of Tang Song's slender and smooth cartoon hands, and couldn't help rubbing her legs together gently.
It's been a long time since we last met. Although we often play remotely, it's nothing compared to being in person.
Hehe! When we meet, I will definitely eat his hand.
Xiao Jing licked her lips, put the ring away, and began to choose clothes to wear today.
The sound of taking off clothes was heard.
The glowing white skin made the entire cloakroom brighter.
Xiao Jing tried the clothes in front of her for a while, and her smooth body turned several circles in the floor-length mirror. She looked really beautiful.
(≧≦)
Brother Tang Song will definitely like it!
After changing her clothes and checking the time, Xiaojing hummed a song and walked towards the restaurant.
The air was filled with the aroma of breakfast.
Chinese porridge and Western bread are placed on the table, which is rich yet warm.
"Good morning, dear Mom and Dad." Xiaojing said sweetly with a well-behaved and obedient smile on her face.
"Baby, come here and have dinner. I just said I was going to call you." Mother Chen Man waved her hand quickly.
Xiaojing smiled, sat down next to her mother, picked up a piece of toasted cranberry toast and ate it slowly, then lowered her head to check her phone.
The family enjoyed breakfast quietly in a harmonious and peaceful atmosphere.
After a while.
"Jingjing." Father Tian Chengye suddenly spoke in a low and serious voice.
Xiao Jing raised her head and said playfully, "What's the matter, Lao Tian?"
Tian Chengye's expression was still tense: "How is your relationship with Tang Song recently? Are you still together?"
Hearing this question, Chen Man also looked over with curiosity. Xiao Jing was slightly startled, then she regained her composure, "It's always been fine, we have a very good relationship."
Her answer was very casual and she didn't say much.
Tian Chengye continued to ask: "Oh? I heard that during your time in the imperial capital, he never came to see you once?"
Xiao Jing frowned, with a bit of displeasure in her tone: "Who told you? Hua Hua? Or Qi Wen?"
Tian Chengye's eyes twitched. "Don't worry about who said it. I just feel like he doesn't care much about you."
Xiao Jing put down the toast in her hand and said in a colder tone: "Didn't we agree not to interfere with my private life? And Lao Tian, it's not your style to talk bad about others behind their backs. This is the principle you taught me before."
Tian Chengye showed an embarrassed look on his face.
"I know what's going on in my mind, so don't bother with any of you."
"Eat, eat, eat first." Chen Man quickly tried to smooth things over, "Jingjing, mom and dad are very worried about you."
Xiao Jing snorted and quickened her eating pace.
After eating a few mouthfuls, Xiao Jing stood up and said, "I'm full."
"Wait a minute, there's one more thing." Tian Chengye stopped her, and after a moment of silence, he whispered, "Xiao Jing, I met with Lin Jingming of Speed Strike Force last night. He said he knows you and has a good relationship with you."
Xiao Jing responded nonchalantly: "Oh? We've only met once, so I guess we know each other."
Tian Chengye said earnestly: "Speed Rush Power is really powerful, it is in the limelight and attracts much attention. Lin Jingming is also a young talent who truly stands at the forefront of the times, and his resume is extremely outstanding. He is one of the best people I have come into contact with over the years.
He is only 31 years old now, and he has participated in the establishment of a new energy enterprise valued at US$5 million. He has also been recognized by local government funds, and his future is limitless.”
Xiao Jing raised her head alertly, "I say, Lao Tian, what do you mean?"
Tian Chengye coughed lightly and said, "I don't mean anything special. I just hope you can make more connections like this. Don't miss better opportunities because of personal feelings."
"I'm going to work, bye." Xiaojing pushed the chair back to its original position and walked towards the bedroom without looking back.
Chen Man stretched out her hand to keep him, but finally sighed and said nothing.
She turned to look at her husband and complained, "You know her character, why do you have to bring this up!"
Tian Chengye's face darkened slightly, and his tone was helpless: "I am also considering Jingjing's future. I hope she can be happier."
Chen Man asked worriedly, "Is it not going well for you?"
Tian Chengye sighed and nodded slowly: "Well, it's a big problem. I may have to sell my shares in Jinxiu Commerce."
"Ah?" Chen Man's heart was shocked. "Didn't you say that Jinxiu Commerce would have a high probability of going public in the future? And Jingjing is still working there!"
Tian Chengye shook his head solemnly, "There's nothing I can do. The situation was too sudden."
He is only 47 years old this year, still in his prime, and has the ambition to move forward.
In the past few years, we have followed national policies and invested in several new energy and semiconductor companies.
Among them, Huineng Electronics in Hangzhou has developed the fastest.
The company has many high-quality patented technologies, and its team is very promising, having developed a promising technology route.
Since last year, Tian Chengye has been purchasing shares from other shareholders one after another and has invested a large sum of money. He has now become the major shareholder with a 63% stake.
In order to support the company's development, he also guaranteed a loan of more than 200 million yuan from an institution in his personal name and bet all his money on this enterprise.
However, the process complexity far exceeded expectations and the yield problem has not been solved.
Some of the contracts signed previously could only be breached with compensation, and the company’s capital chain was on the verge of breaking.
He went on a business trip to Hangzhou on Valentine's Day just to deal with this matter. He was busy and exhausted, but unfortunately he was still unable to save the situation.
He had to repay this huge debt due to personal guarantee.
The only high-quality asset he had that could be quickly converted into cash was his shares in Jinxiu Trading.
Thinking of this, Tian Chengye felt a tightness in his chest.
Originally, he planned to give this part of the shares to Xiaojing in a few years, allowing her to grow in Jinxiu Trading and become an executive or even a director of a listed company in the future.
I didn't expect things to develop to this point.
At the same time, Zhongcheng Group has been in a downward trend due to the overall decline of the real estate industry, and the recent Zhongyun Dairy incident has made the situation even worse.
His personal assets are shrinking rapidly, and every step he takes is like walking on thin ice.
He did not intend to interfere in Xiaojing's love life, but the current situation forced him to re-examine every possible opportunity.
The appearance of Lin Jingming and his undisguised affection for Xiaojing made Tian Chengye somewhat moved, and he also hoped that his daughter could live a better life in the future.
……
Rongliu Investment, General Assistant Office.
The sound of flipping through documents could be heard from time to time, and Lin Muxue's face showed a look of struggle.
After a moment, she took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "That's it! Imperial College! No change!"
"This is indeed the most suitable choice." Zhang Lili on the other side smiled and said, "The Global MBA of Imperial College is top-notch among online MBA programs. The degree certificate is the same as that of a full-time MBA, and it will not have the word "online" indicated, and the legal effect is the same."
"Yeah!" Lin Muxue nodded vigorously, with an expression of relief on her face.
After finally making the choice, I finally felt relieved.
As he pulled out the introduction to Imperial College Global MBA from the folder, the smile on his face grew brighter and brighter.
The course design is consistent with the full-time MBA, and it is fully online learning. You only need to go to London every year to participate in 1-2 weeks of offline activities.
It is very suitable for working people to improve their academic qualifications and management skills.
Imperial College London is one of the UK's G5 universities, one of the best in the world, and ranked 6th in the QS World University Rankings.
Its business school enjoys a high reputation in the business field, especially in finance, technology and innovation management.
And it has a strong alumni network, especially in Europe and Asia.
Although its name is not as well-known as Harvard and Cambridge, it is indeed the most suitable one for her.
Moreover, she likes the word "empire" very much, which is in line with her status as Emperor Mu Xue!
The more people lack something, the more they desire it.
The biggest shortcoming has been made up, and I feel more confident when going to the toilet in the future!
Thinking of this, Lin Muxue twisted her long legs and her face flushed with excitement.
This is because Tang Song is not here. If he were in front of me, I would have to ride him under me and toss him around.
At this moment.
"Knock knock knock—" There was a knock on the door, and then it was pushed open.
Tang Song, wearing a casual shirt, walked in.
"Mr. Tang!" "Mr. Tang!"
"Mr. Tang!" The two men stood up quickly, with a hint of nervousness in their tone.
Tang Song walked over to them, his eyes calm and determined, "Assistant Lin, notify the Huashang Clothing project team members to hold a meeting in Conference Room T1 at ten o'clock."
"Okay, Mr. Tang!" Lin Muxue responded quickly, her fingers inadvertently lifting the hair at her temples, her expression slightly unnatural.
She was still fantasizing just now, but in the blink of an eye, the person was standing in front of her.
Looking at his handsome face, Lin Muxue felt itchy in her heart.
Tang Song nodded slightly, turned and walked out, going straight to the president's office.
On the desk, reports on the acquisition progress are neatly arranged and classified.
He flipped through a few pages casually, a faint smile appearing on the corners of his mouth.
Thanks to the efforts of the professional team, the precise valuation model of Huachang Clothing has been completed.
Rongliu Investment has reached a preliminary agreement with Dingyun Investment and Chengrong Group to acquire their 10% shares at a premium of 14.4%.
In addition, four small shareholders have confirmed their intention to sell.
After the transaction is completed, Tang Song will hold a total of 55.4% of the shares through individuals and enterprises, officially becoming the company's major shareholder and naturally controlling the board of directors.
Of course, this is just the first step.
He Jingping's family still holds 40.4% of the shares and has a veto power on major matters.
The next step is to dilute his stake to below 33%.
Originally, this was an extremely complex and difficult task.
Even if the method of increasing capital and expanding shares is adopted, it requires the support of more than two-thirds of the voting rights, and as long as He Jingping disagrees, it will be difficult to advance.
Other financing methods such as splitting, converting capital reserves into equity, etc., require a lot of time and cost.
But Tang and Song had no extra time to waste.
He holds a controlling stake in Huachang Clothing in order to help Songmei Clothing develop rapidly, rather than getting caught up in an endless game.
In the end, Rongliu Investment set its sights on "convertible bonds".
As an asset-heavy enterprise, Huachang Clothing has always relied on high-debt operations due to issues such as production line upgrades, inventory pressure and collection cycle.
Two years ago, the company signed a "convertible bond agreement" with a private equity fund.
Such bonds come with an option clause that allows the holder to convert them into equity under certain conditions.
Tang Song’s plan was simple: get the convertible bond contract, and then use his status as a major shareholder to forcibly trigger the “debt-to-equity” clause, thereby diluting He Jingping’s equity.
Even better, CEO Wu Wei’s “rebellion” made this easier.
Tang Song took out the report submitted by the due diligence team, glanced at the key content, and felt even happier.
Global Connect Trade Limited.
"Dong dong dong——" A knock on the door suddenly sounded.
"Come in!" Tang Song raised his head.
The door was pushed open gently.
"Da da da--"
Lin Muxue, wearing a professional suit, walked in with graceful and brisk steps, twisting her slender waist.
"Mr. Tang, the meeting notice has been arranged." Lin Muxue stood in front of the desk, her tone gentle but capable.
Exquisite facial features, heavy makeup, and fashionable OL outfit make her look graceful, charming and sexy.
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Tang Song put the document down, leaned back slightly, and did not hide his admiring look.
Having such a beautiful and sexy female assistant makes work more pleasant.
Realizing that she seemed to have something else to say, Tang Song asked, "Anything else?"
Lin Muxue hesitated for a moment, then took a step forward, got a little closer, and said softly: "Mr. Tang, regarding the school and major you mentioned earlier... I have decided."
"Oh? Which one?"
"Global MBA from Imperial College London, is that okay?" Lin Muxue pursed her lips, her eyes full of anticipation.
Tang Song smiled and nodded, "Of course, I will arrange for someone to contact you, and you will need to provide some personal information later."
"Okay, Mr. Tang!" Lin Muxue's cheeks turned red with excitement, and her voice was filled with unconcealable joy.
Tang Song blinked and encouraged, "Come on, Assistant Lin. When you are successfully admitted, I will give you a special gift. You will definitely like it very much."
"Ah, a special gift?" Lin Muxue exclaimed, her eyes instantly moist.
Not only does he help me improve my academic qualifications, but he also gives me gifts. This is really life-threatening!
If it wasn't in the office... um... Actually it's not impossible in the office...
Lin Muxue gritted her teeth, boldly sat on Tang Song's legs, and put her arms around his neck, "Thank you, Mr. Tang, you are so good to me!"
Seeing that Tang Song did not refuse, he put his arms around her waist instead.
Lin Muxue smiled instantly, pressed her lips lightly against his, and twisted her plump buttocks slightly.
Located in the most luxurious office on the 50th floor of the financial center.
Having just obtained an admission ticket to a world-class prestigious university, Lin Muxue sat on her idol unscrupulously, feeling as if she was floating in the air and was about to fly.
