C31 An Ultimatum

The long-standing irreconcilable conflict between Fan Wenbin and Pang Chengchuan finally broke out after a period of secret confrontation.

On a sunny morning, in the broad and tidy office of Hucheng Group, in front of all the directors, the two of them had an intense and exciting peak confrontation.

At this moment, both sides were exchanging blows with each other, their faces flushed red and sparks flying in all directions. They were like two red-eyed roosters, unwilling to give in to each other. For a moment, it was difficult to determine who would win or lose.

This time, the focal point of the debate was the same as last time. It was still a problem of whether the Ancient Silk Road cultural resort should be built or not.

On the afternoon of Great-Grandfather Fan's death, this was the question. Both parties had just entered a state of decisive battle when they encountered this sudden grievous news. They had no choice but to call a temporary truce.

Now, the funeral of Great-Grandfather Fan had been over for nearly ten days. The obstacles had been removed. In today's board meeting, both parties continued to debate on this issue, their faces red and their necks thick.

At the beginning of the meeting, in front of all the directors, Pang Chengchuan still did not hesitate to throw out the topic that he had previously submitted, with a very firm attitude towards the construction of the Ancient Silk Road Cultural Resort in the Fan Family.

"If Chairman Fan doesn't listen to advice and continues to act willfully, continuing to spend large amounts of money to build the so-called cultural resort in front of his home gate, then I have nothing to say. "

Pang Chengchuan drank a large mouthful of tea and moistened his dry throat. Then, he spread his hands and stared at his opponent with a fierce gaze. He made a helpless and helpless appearance.

Then, with a very firm tone, he said, "But today, in front of all the directors, I will say the dirty words to the front. If you really insist on doing so, I will withdraw my investment and withdraw from Hucheng Group.

This sentence did not leave any room for negotiation. It was even to the extent that when he decided to cut off his own path of retreat, his decisive words immediately shocked all the people who participated in the meeting, including Fan Wenbin.

For a moment, no one said anything. All of them simultaneously focused their gazes on Pang Chengchuan's face, secretly pondering the true meaning of his words.

For a moment, the silence in the meeting room was terrifying. The air seemed to have solidified as it tightly pressed down on everyone present.

In addition to being greatly shocked, Fan Wenbin stared blankly at Pang Chengchuan. He was tongue-tied, and was actually unable to say a word.

He had never expected that Pang Chengchuan would actually say such vicious and ruthless words at the board meeting. It was as if he had given himself a loud and clear slap, causing him to be stunned.

At the beginning of the meeting, both parties were still smiling and maintaining a modest demeanor. They tried their best to suppress the uneasiness and restlessness in their hearts as they calmly discussed the topic.

However, as the disagreement gradually increased, as well as the verbal confrontation, the contradictions that were suppressed in the depths of both parties' hearts finally inevitably erupted like a volcano.

After a period of intense and intense competition, it finally led to Pang Chengchuan resolutely and decisively saying these ruthless words that had no room for compromise. It also forced Fan Wenbin to the edge of a cliff that was tens of thousands of feet high. He either fought back resolutely or fell into the abyss, and there was no third way to go.

He would fight back firmly. He would still insist on building the Ancient Silk Road Cultural Resort in the Fan Family, allowing Pang Chengchuan to withdraw his investment and withdraw his shares, forever withdrawing from the Hua City Group.

However, this result was quite a blow to the Hua Cheng Group. Although it could not be said to be disastrous, it could also cause irreparable consequences.

Falling into the abyss was to give up on his own opinion at the board meeting and completely give up on the idea of building the Ancient Silk Road Cultural Resort. He raised his hand and surrendered to Pang Chengchuan.

However, doing so was only a temporary measure. While it could protect the interests of Huaxin Group to the greatest extent, it also meant that it would lose a bigger and longer opportunity for development.

Compared to the two, who was more important and who was shorter and who was longer was more important. People with some common sense would be able to tell at a glance, not to mention people who had been rolling around in the business ocean for more than ten years or even decades.

However, as the head of the famous Red Leaf Chain Hotel, Pang Chengchuan, whose value was as high as ten million yuan, actually could not see this point. This made Fan Wenbin feel incredulous, but at the same time, he also felt a little surprised.

At this time, the director and general manager, who was also Fan Wenbin's old classmate, Ning Peng, in high school, could not bear this kind of oppressive atmosphere. He was the first to break the extremely embarrassing situation in front of him.

He shifted his gaze from Fan Wenbin's face to Pang Chengchuan's face. After a moment, he said very calmly, "Vice Chairman, the Ancient Silk Road Cultural Resort is in the planning stage and has not really invested a single cent. "

Before he finished speaking, Pang Chengchuan's remaining anger had yet to dissipate as he refuted in a stern voice: "If we don't stop now, and when we start construction in the future without considering the consequences and blindly invest in it, the losses to the company will be even greater. Who will be responsible for that? Who will protect the interests of us shareholders?

The reason why he treated this general manager so fiercely was because he knew that Ning Peng was not only Fan Wenbin's high school classmate, but also an iron brother who had a very good relationship with him.

Ning Peng, who had a bad reputation in the past, had opened a small coal kiln. Today, he was able to boast shamelessly at the board meeting of the board of directors of Hucheng Group, a listed company. This was caused by Fan Wenbin.

Pang Chengchuan even secretly thought that Fan Wenbin had recruited Ning Peng as a member of the board of directors and had even promoted him to be the general manager of the company. His fundamental purpose was to prevent himself from being caught in the crossfire, and he had adopted a method to keep him in check. Perhaps, it also contained the intention of pushing him out of the board of directors.

Because, since two years ago, after Li Fan introduced him to join Hua Cheng Group, he discovered that regardless of his personality, his way of doing things, and his corporate management philosophy, he and Fan Wenbin were two completely different kinds of people.

When he was in the army, Pang Chengchuan had served as the second lieutenant of the Field Team for many years. Just as he was about to be promoted, he happened to encounter an unprecedented one million disarmament in 1985, and the army he was in was also being disbanded.

After a period of repetitive and painful thinking, in the end, with a heart full of melancholy, while earnestly fulfilling the duty of a soldier of the Republic, he politely declined the arrangement of the organization and returned to his hometown with the transfer fee.

Later, in Daan County, he rented a courtyard and opened a small hotel called "Red Leaf. " He began to experience the hardships of his own entrepreneurship.

At this moment, when he saw Pang Chengchuan speak maliciously to him, a flame suddenly rose in Ning Peng's heart. However, he did his best to restrain the restlessness and anger in his heart, and his gaze stared fixedly at the other party.

After a moment, he still said very calmly, "Vice Chairman Pang, in my opinion, building the Ancient Silk Road Cultural Resort is a very long-term vision. It has an inestimable effect on increasing the competitiveness of Hucheng Group. "

When he said this, he shifted his gaze to Fan Wenbin's face. When he saw Fan Wenbin nod slightly in encouragement, he became more and more confident in his heart.

Then, he stared at Pang Chengchuan and continued, "Since the development of Hua Cheng Corporation until today, Chairman Fan has played a significant role in the company being listed. It is not an exaggeration to say that without Chairman Fan, Hucheng Group would not have today's glory. "

Since the 1990s, the country had implemented a major reform of state-owned enterprises. Many small-scale state-owned enterprises had been closed down, and those large-scale state-owned enterprises had been impartially run or merged into state-owned enterprises.

Taking advantage of this rare and massive reformation, Ning Peng thought about it again and again and decided that he would not personally drive a long-distance transport in the future. Because doing that was very tiring and did not earn much money.

Hence, he made a prompt decision and sold the truck with the liberation card. He also begged his grandfather and grandmother to borrow a sum of money. In addition to his savings, he ran to Meng County, which was bordering on Daan County, and contracted a small coal kiln. He started to be the boss and ran the coal business.

Ten years ago, which was around 2003, there was a shortage of electricity and a situation of steel refining in China. The coal owners, who had coal resources, made a lot of money.

Ning Peng was no exception. His assets had increased more than ten times in just a few years. It was not unusual for him to earn tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands a day. Very soon, he became the real big boss of coal.

At this time, it was also the most difficult time for Hucheng Group. Seeing his classmate in high school, Ning Peng, acting like he was rich, he took the initiative to look for him and wanted to borrow some money to get through this difficult time.

When he walked into Ning Peng's newly built two-story building with a nervous heart and said that he wanted to borrow money, Ning Peng's attitude shocked him greatly. Even now, he couldn't forget it for the rest of his life.
