Chapter 467: The First Meeting Between Xiao Jing and Wen Ruan

Huashang Apparel Headquarters Office Building, 8th Floor, Chairman's Office.

"Dong dong dong—" A knock on the door sounded.

"Please come in." He Jingping extinguished the cigarette in his hand and raised his head.

He Zhihui and Financial Director Li Mingjie walked into the room quickly.

"Dad." "Chairman He."

He Jingping nodded, signaling the two to sit down.

He Zhihui changed his usual lazy appearance and took the initiative to pour tea for the three.

"How did things go? Were the people sent away?" He Jingping picked up the teacup and took a light sip.

He Zhihui curled his lips, "They finally left. The formation was so big, I don't know if they thought our company was going to have an audit for listing! Especially that Tang Song, he didn't show his face from beginning to end, just sent people to drag down the company's operational efficiency."

"Alright, say less!" He Jingping's tone was serious, then turned to Li Mingjie and asked: "Mingjie, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Li Mingjie answered steadily: "Mm, their movements were very clean and neat, mainly checking financial data such as profits, assets and liabilities, and cash flow, without deeply reviewing specific transaction contracts or conducting detailed research."

"That's good." He Jingping shook his head, a smile appearing on the corners of his mouth, "It seems they just wanted to show their presence. Young people, they always like to express dissatisfaction in this way."

Li Mingjie nodded in agreement, a look of relief on his face, "I think so too."

The batch of audit personnel sent by Tang Song was clearly experienced and professional, and should be a team from a large financial institution.

As an enterprise that had been operating for more than twenty years, it was inevitable that there were some problems within Huashang Apparel.

If the other party was truly determined to turn everything upside down, they could indeed find quite a few loopholes.

Therefore, as one of the core executives and the financial director, Li Mingjie's pressure was the greatest.

Fortunately, the other party didn't delve into it, which made his nerves relax slightly.

He Jingping pondered for a moment, then suddenly opened his mouth: "Mingjie, in the future, transactions with related enterprises must be done more formally, and the quotes from Global Connect Trade must also be adjusted to ensure transparency and fairness, so as not to be caught by others in the future."

Li Mingjie was stunned, nodded and said: "Okay, Chairman He. Is it in preparation for the company's future listing?"

"Mm." He Jingping said with a serious face: "This time it can be considered a reminder to us; the audit when listing will be very strict, and early optimization is necessary. In the future, try to reduce reliance on related suppliers and introduce more independent third-party suppliers."

Regarding related transactions, although he had always been very restrained, after so many years, he had also sucked quite a bit of blood from Huashang Apparel, and there were definitely traces left behind.

Once the company starts the listing procedure, regulatory agencies usually focus on the financial status and operating conditions of the recent three years.

If they want to pass the audit smoothly, they must cut off these potential risks as early as possible.

If the joint venture company goes smoothly, two or three years later, Huashang Apparel might not have no possibility of going public.

Compared with these big interests, the losses in front of them are not worth mentioning at all.

Just at this time, the phone rang.

He Jingping picked up the phone, scanned the screen, answered the call, and said with a laugh: "General Manager Huang, why did you suddenly think of calling me?"

"Oh? Who?!"

"Juqing Hui Jin? A trust company in Xiangjiang?"

"Good, then let's meet and chat tonight."

Putting down the phone, He Jingping's face became subtle.

He Zhihui hurriedly asked: "What's wrong, Dad?"

He Jingping waved his hand, signaling him not to speak, and walked behind the desk.

He took out a phone book, picked up the desk phone, and began to dial.

"Hello, Brother Zhang, how have you been recently?"

"Nothing big, Huashang Apparel will have big moves next, might hold a shareholders' meeting, telling you in advance. Don't worry, it's a good thing!"

"Haha, by the way, we've known each other for so many years, if you have any intention of selling shares, you must contact me first."

"Then that's it, goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, He Jingping made two more calls one after another.

A few minutes later, he sat back on the sofa.

Li Mingjie whispered: "Chairman He, is someone going to acquire the company's shares?"

He Jingping shook his head, "It's just that a trust company in Xiangjiang suddenly found Huang Yangming, wanting to buy the 0.8% of shares in his hands, but the price wasn't negotiated, so he came to ask me. I just contacted several shareholders and heads of institutions, and none of them had heard of this matter."

Li Mingjie frowned: "Could it be that Huang Yangming wanted to raise the price and deliberately found an excuse? Wanting you to take over."

"It's possible." He Jingping pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice to He Zhihui: "Zhihui, you communicate with Wu Wei, the brand-new flexible production line at headquarters can free up a portion of capacity to help Songmei Apparel with OEM."

"Dad, what are you doing? Isn't this showing weakness to Tang Song? And our own brand's capacity isn't enough!"

"No need to drag it out anymore, do as I say!" He Jingping's expression was serious: "Our most important task now is to stabilize the situation and ensure the smooth advancement of the joint venture company. As for other problems, it won't be too late to solve them when the time is ripe."

The two brand-new product lines upgraded by Huashang Apparel this time, one serves the own brand, and the other is used for OEM customization.

The OEM one has already been determined to be used for the joint venture company, which is related to future business layout and cannot be moved.

And the e-commerce operation of the own brand is not ideal, so appropriate concessions are acceptable.

He Jingping felt that he had done enough, and didn't think Tang Song would refuse.

After all, there was no fundamental conflict of interest between the two, and he had already taken the initiative to make concessions.

He Zhihui bit his teeth, nodded with a face full of reluctance, and got up to walk out.

After chatting with Li Mingjie in a low voice for a while.

He Jingping's gaze flickered, and he picked up the phone to dial a number again.

He said in a low voice: "Secretary Zhang, I want to hold a shareholders' meeting before the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday to vote on the establishment of the joint venture company. Help me arrange the meeting time, prepare relevant materials, and notify all shareholders."

After hanging up the phone, He Jingping let out a long breath, but his heart was still faintly uneasy.

Ever since Tang Song suddenly acquired 35% of the shares, completely disrupting his plans, he had always held a grudge.

Now hearing similar news from Huang Yangming, it was inevitable that he would have the feeling of a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow.

Rongliu Investment, large conference room.

"We have conducted a comprehensive analysis of Huashang's financial statements for the past 3 years—OEM business accounts for 68%, own brand accounts for 32%..."

"The valuation model uses the DCF method and relative valuation method for cross-verification—WACC is 7.95%, mean is 1.2..."

"The scale adjustment coefficient has been introduced, and the final valuation range is determined to be 2.04~2.31 billion yuan."

The person in charge of Huashang Apparel equity acquisition, Geraint (Liu Zhengping), stood in front of the projection screen, reporting on the project's progress.

Lin Empress Mu Xue sat on Tang Song's left hand side, her gaze bright, her expression thrilled.

This was her first time truly participating in financial work, no longer a role of just soy-sauce, which was extraordinary.

And the target of this strike was He Zhihui, making her even more excited.

Looking at the team's progress, she felt that it wouldn't be long before she could appear in front of He Zhihui as a winner and suppress him fiercely.

Back then, as a small wild model, she could only hide and endure when facing this kind of rich second generation, so she naturally felt very aggrieved.

Especially since this idiot kid actually dared to miss her and send her harassing messages.

Truly bold! You don't even look at whose woman I am! Hmph hmph!

Lin Empress Mu Xue bit her teeth, her watery gaze looking at Tang Song sitting in the main seat.

Her gaze fell on his long, glowing fingers, and she couldn't help but shiver.

Today's highest temperature was 33 degrees, she only wore a half-length skirt and didn't put on silk stockings.

In the President's office, she personally experienced the greatness of the "Male God's Hand."

It had to be said that Tang Song's hands were simply invincible! Truly, whoever uses them knows!

After 11 AM, the meeting officially ended.

Lin Empress Mu Xue helped Tang Song pack up his laptop and followed behind him to walk out.

She asked softly: "General Tang Zong, is there anything you want to eat for lunch? I'll book it for you."

"No need, just eat group meals with you." Tang Song's footsteps paused, "By the way, the Yannan Film and Television Base officially opens the day after tomorrow, you accompany me there."

"Okay!" Lin Empress Mu Xue nodded forcefully, excitement flashing in her gaze.

Finally opening!

Just right to show her face in front of those executives, and directly set her Xuetang Culture as the officially recommended cooperation agency.

After that, she could safely and steadily carry out the agency business!

Although she didn't earn much, it was solid and stable enough.

She could also be like Qian Qian in the future, possessing a career of her own.

Walking into the President's office.

The phone in Tang Song's pocket suddenly began to vibrate.

He took it out and looked at it.

【Huashang Apparel - Wu Wei】

Tang Song answered the phone directly, "Hello, General Manager Wu."

Soon, Wu Wei's steady voice came from the receiver: "Chairman Tang, He Zhihui just came to chat with me. Chairman He wants to free up 30% of the capacity of this new production line at headquarters to do OEM for Songmei Apparel, and the price can be discounted by another 10%."

"Oh?" Tang Song raised his eyebrows, "Chairman He is truly generous."

"There is one more thing." Wu Wei lowered his voice: "Chairman He will hold a shareholders' meeting before the end of the month to vote on the matter of founding a joint venture company with Yingqu Media. You should receive the notification in these few days."

Tang Song chuckled: "So it's because he's afraid I'll make trouble, wanting to ease the relationship?"

"Mm, it should be like this."

Tang Song pondered for a moment and said: "Agree to it first, everything will be determined after the shareholders' meeting ends."

"Okay, General Tang Zong, then I won't disturb your work, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Song sat in the chair, his gaze calm.

His branch task 【Supply Chain Empowerment】 required "opening a dedicated high-end workshop in Huashang Garment Factory," so the other party's conditions had no attraction to him at all.

And the existence of the He Jingping family was indeed a hidden danger.

Songmei Apparel next needs to build flexible quick-response capabilities and build its own competitive barriers, inevitably relying heavily on the supply chain and OEM factories.

To prevent possible problems, it's better to hold Huashang Apparel in his own hands.

And He Jingping's "shareholders' meeting" just happened to fit his wishes.

Originally, he intended to propose an application to replace the chairman and board members after the equity transaction ended.

"Buzz buzz buzz—" The phone vibrated again.

【Anne: "Good afternoon, dear Song. I've taken care of... (Good afternoon, dear Song, I've already handled the matter in New York, planning to go to Modu on October 3rd, staying there for a period of time, just in time for your holiday, looking forward to having a romantic date with you during this period, I really miss you very much.)"】

【Anne: "Don't worry, I absolutely won't tell Jin about this, haha."】

Tang Song smiled and replied: "Looking forward to our date."

The existence of 【Consultant - Anne Kate】 was very important to him, equivalent to an overseas protective umbrella.

At the same time, she was also Jin Mi Shu's alumna and friend, and the two had a deep relationship.

What he looked forward to most was actually understanding Jin Mi Shu's past through Anne, such as her life in university and her family.

Immediately, Tang Song opened the system interface, entered the warehouse, and his gaze fell on a gorgeous feather.

【Light Feather of Memory * 1】:...

【Note: Exploring the past is also a major way to improve oneself. What exactly was I doing in 2017~2018?】

2017~2018.

During this time in the game, besides doing investments and industries step by step, he put most of his energy into the 【Female Star - Su Yu】 cultivation dungeon.

At that time, he was truly addicted.

He specially organized the songs and scripts that would explode in popularity in the future and sent them to Su Yu, and also helped her choose outfits and makeup.

He also acquired many foreign special effects companies, shooting teams, and production companies for her.

Thinking of that female star with fairy-like beauty, Tang Song's heart gradually became hot.

Going to Modu this time, don't know if there's a chance to see Su Yu again.

Perhaps he could trigger 【Light Feather of Memory】 and retrieve the shared memories between them.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Lin Jin Building, Jinxiu Trading.

"Da da da—" The sound of keyboard tapping sounded from time to time, and an excited smile appeared on Hu Mingli's face.

In the bestie group.

【Hu Mingli: "I heard from Zhang Xintong that your Guangying Media is coming to our company to talk about business this afternoon, will you come together?"】

【Wen Ruan: "_ ===== CHAPTER 468 =====

【Hu Mingli: "I heard from Zhang Xintong that you guys from Light and Shadow Media are coming to our company to discuss business this afternoon,
