Chapter 72 - Negotiation with Father Xia
Chapter 72: Negotiation with Father Xia
Xia Wanyuan arrived at the Xia family’s company. Unlike the Jun Corporation, which was rich and imposing, the Xia family’s company was located in an office building in Beijing’s Fifth Ring Road.
However, in Beijing, being able to afford to rent an entire office building meant that the Xia family used to be relatively rich.
However, at that moment, the company was in a state of depression. Because the company had declared bankruptcy, many employees had already chosen another path. The company that used to be prosperous and lively could only see groups of employees packing their things and preparing to leave.
“Wanyuan?”
When Father Xia arrived at the company, he pushed the door open. If not for that extremely recognizable face, Father Xia would not dare to recognize her as his pretty daughter.
Xia Wanyuan wore a short black cardigan jacket, paired with a bright yellow velvet knee-length skirt and a pair of black high boots, making her look cold and elegant.
What surprised Father Xia even more was Xia Wanyuan’s confident and powerful aura. He had been in business for so many years, so he had naturally trained his ability to judge people very well. But at this moment, he could actually see the aura of a leader in his daughter.
Could it be that one is marked by the company one keeps? How could her marriage to Jun Shiling affect my daughter so much?
“Okay, come and sit.”
In the end, Xia Wanyuan still could not call him ‘Daddy’. Although the original owner of the body’s father was a little weak and biased, he treated the original owner of the body pretty well. Unfortunately, the soul in this body had changed to the Xia Wanyuan from a thousand years ago, and she could not bring herself to call him that.
“W-what do you want from me?” Father Xia sat in front of Xia Wanyuan hesitantly. He felt that his
“The Xia family is bankrupt, right? I can inject funds into the Xia family.”
“Really? Wanyuan, you… Is it because Master Jun is willing to help us?” Upon hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words, Father Xia was overjoyed. Didn’t Jun Shiling hate Xia Wanyuan a lot? Could it be that Xia Wanyuan had truly secured her position as Madam Jun? Thinking of this, Father Xia looked at Xia Wanyuan even more passionately.
“It’s not him, it’s me.” Seeing the light in Father Xia ‘s eyes grow brighter, Xia Wanyuan added, “But I have a condition.”
“What condition?” Father Xia was stunned.
“I want you to transfer all your shares to me.”
“What?!!” Father Xia had thought that Xia Wanyuan’s condition might be to give her some shares after the Xia family rose again, but he did not expect Xia Wanyuan to want all his shares.
“I’ll give you three days to consider. Even if you don’t give me your shares, the Xia family’s capital chain is already broken. You also know that no one will be willing to invest in this mess.” Xia Wanyuan slowly broke down Father Xia ‘s psychological defense. “Besides, are you going to watch the Xia family’s company end in your generation?”
After speaking, Xia Wanyuan observed Father Xia ‘s reaction. She estimated that this matter was about to end, so she left the office, leaving Father Xia to think alone.
As he watched Xia Wanyuan leave, Father Xia felt that this person was too unfamiliar. However, Xia Wanyuan’s words had indeed taken root in his heart and sprouted.
It was difficult for him to decide what to do with all the shares in the Xia family.
Father Xia walked down the stairs in a daze. The once lively office was now devoid of life.
When some employees saw Father Xia , they did not greet him respectfully as usual and just ignored him coldly.
“Hey, isn’t this Director Xia?”
As soon as Father Xia left the company, he met his former right-hand man, Zhou Kang. Before the Xia family went bankrupt, Zhou Kang had been very respectful to Father Xia .
Zhou Kang had strongly recommended the film investment case back then. The reason why Father Xia had invested in it was partly because he trusted his trusted aide’s judgment.
“Zhou Kang? Where are you going?” Ever since the Xia family went bankrupt, Zhou Kang had left the Xia family’s company. Although Father Xia was bitterly disappointed, he knew that everyone had to live, so he did not blame Zhou Kang too much.
“I’m going to be the finance director of Dingsheng Company opposite.” Speaking of this, Zhou Kang’s face was full of smugness, and his tone was filled with obvious pride.
“Dingsheng? You!” Dingsheng could be said to be the Xia family’s rival company. Moreover, Dingsheng had fought with the Xia family for five years. Zhou Kang could go to any company, but Father Xia could not accept going to Dingsheng.
“So what if it’s Dingsheng? Dingsheng gave me a high position and high salary. Director Xia, you’re so rich that you definitely won’t fancy them, but they’re still quite attractive to me.” Zhou Kang looked at how his former boss had fallen and could not help but feel a strong sense of superiority.
“Oh, I have to go to the company now. See you later, Director Xia.” Zhou Kang looked at his watch and greeted Father Xia symbolically. Before Father Xia could reply, he turned and left.
Xia Wanyuan looked at this subordinate who had once tried to curry favor with him. Now, he looked so arrogant because of his bankruptcy. He felt depressed. He could not help but think of Xia Wanyuan’s conditions and slowly made a decision.
At the Jun Corporation headquarters.
“President Jun, this is the investment plan for our company this quarter. Please take a look.” The director of the investment department handed the proposal to Jun Shiling nervously.
“Film?” The Jun Corporation had always been involved in this aspect. In the past years, there had also been investments in the film industry, but they did not account for much and did not account for much either. This year, the proposal submitted by the investment department had increased the investment share in the film industry.
“Yes, President Jun, after our investigation, we’ve discovered that due to the popularity of the Korean wave a few years ago, the development of the domestic entertainment industry has been very abnormal. And in the past two years, after the Korean wave subsided, the domestic film industry began to develop. The investment department thinks that there is room for investment in the current film industry.”
The change in investment in film and television this year was relatively large. The director of the investment department knew that Jun Shiling would definitely ask about this, so he took out the data that he had prepared beforehand and reported to Jun Shiling.
“Organize the film and television data for the past ten years and send them to me. You can leave first.” After hearing the investment director’s analysis, Jun Shiling did not agree, but some thoughts arose in his heart.
“Yes, President Jun.”
After the investment director left the office, Jun Shiling finished dealing with the matters that had happened in the morning. He took out his phone, logged into Xia Wanyuan’s WeChat, and clicked on King of Glory.
Lin Jing carried the lunch box into Jun Shiling’s office as usual. The moment he entered, he realized that the usually quiet office had an inappropriate sound of gaming special effects.
When Lin Jing had time, he would play games for a while. Naturally, he knew what the sound effects were. However, the sound effects appearing in Jun Shiling’s office really made him feel horrified.
But Lin Jing was still the special assistant of the Jun Corporation steadily. Even though his heart was racing, he still put away the lunch box expressionlessly and said calmly, “Young Master Jun, lunch is ready.”
“Mm.” After winning the game, Jun Shiling was about to switch off his phone when a new message popped up on WeChat.
“Wanyuan, the production team is about to enter the publicity phase. Do you have time to come out for a meal tomorrow? Let’s communicate first?”
The sender was Qin Wu.
