Chapter 1862: Unstoppable Excitement

~7 min read 1,300 words

After Qu Yunzhe returned to the hotel, he finally couldn't suppress his excitement and laughed out loud.

The shares in Qiu Dongfang's hands were in his hands, and he was the largest shareholder of Wufeng Mining.

Even if the Ganzhou government held onto its shares, it wouldn't have much impact on his control of Wufeng.

By then, with Wufeng Mining as the foundation, Tang Lin and Zhang You and the others were not worth worrying about.

After all, if you want to compete for rare earth resources, background is only one aspect, and what is more important is money.

That bumpkin Zhou Andong, the so-called Yugong Group, was just a small village workshop in his eyes.

Competing on capital, competing on funds, let alone a small Zhou Andong.

If there were enough benefits, even the Four Great Families of Xiangjiang, their Qu family wouldn't be afraid.

Qu Yunzhe grabbed the phone and dialed Beijing. Soon, the voice of Old Master Qu came from the receiver.

"Yunzhe?"

"Grandpa!" Qu Yunzhe took a deep breath: "Wufeng Mining's shares are in hand, but the price is much higher than before."

Old Master Qu asked: "Much higher, how much is it."

Qu Yunzhe felt his heartbeat speed up: "100 million US dollars!"

"100 million US dollars!" Old Master Qu was silent for a moment, his tone flat, and he couldn't tell if he was happy or angry: "Didn't they ask for 78 million?"

Qu Yunzhe carefully explained the matter: "We had an extra competitor, and the other party had already terminated the negotiations with us."

Old Master Qu asked: "Have you investigated clearly? Does this Altona Rare Earth Company really exist?"

"Investigated clearly." Qu Yunzhe was even more careful: "Altona is an old-brand company established for more than twenty years. Although it is not famous, it acquired 27.6% of Lanling Mining's shares last year and became the second-largest shareholder of Lanling Mining. Its strength cannot be underestimated."

Old Master Qu was silent. 70% of the Qu family's business was mining. Lanling Mining was famous, and he had set his sights on it more than once.

But it was useless. No matter how much money you gave, they wouldn't sell it, just because you were Chinese. There was no way to do anything about it.

As for Altona, he really hadn't heard of it, but being able to become the second-largest shareholder of Lanling Mining, its strength definitely wasn't small.

"Wufeng Mining's shares are very important to us, it's good that you took them down."

Qu Yunzhe secretly let out a breath, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I'm returning to Beijing tomorrow."

"Come back." Old Master Qu said: "The wind has stopped and the rain has cleared in Ganzhou, but the road is very muddy, and there is accumulated water everywhere. There are many places where the depth is unknown. You also need to hurry over and pave the way."

"Understood!" Qu Yunzhe said confidently: "Please rest assured, Grandpa. Having obtained the shares in Qiu Dongfang's hands, we are invincible.

As for our competitors, with you sitting in the back to layout, me charging in the front, plus our strong capital support, no one will be our opponent."

"Having confidence is a good thing, but you can't be arrogant." Old Master Qu finally laughed: "Then that's it."

Hearing the busy tone from the receiver, Qu Yunzhe put down the phone and then ordered someone to book a flight back to Beijing tomorrow.

At the same time, a flight that took off from Xiangjiang landed at Beijing International Airport. Cai Zhenrong took two people, hurried out of the exit, and then got into a taxi.

Cai Zhenrong leaned against the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and rubbed his temples with both hands. He didn't sleep well all night.

When Zhongbao was first established, everyone knew it was a big piece of fat meat. No matter who held it in their hands, they could eat until their mouths were oily.

So, during that period, major families and major factions launched a fight in the open and in the dark.

Finally, Zhongbao was established, and a board of directors was formed, with seven shareholders, each representing different interest groups.

And he was just a lieutenant colonel regiment commander who happened to be retiring and was arranged by his old chief to enter Zhongbao to serve as a director.

At first, he didn't know the situation of Zhongbao. After a period of understanding, he saw clearly that the interpersonal relationships here were too complicated.

Everyone had their own interest demands. In the general direction, they could reach a consensus, but once it involved their own interests, those bastards were really unscrupulous, and any low-level means could be taken out.

For a while, he even had the intention to retire. After all, he was just a retired soldier and was only arranged in by his old chief. His identity and background were different from others.

And he personally found his old chief. That day, the old chief talked to him for more than an hour. Only then did he understand the old chief's meaning, which was to let him be a nail in Zhongbao.

Absolutely not let Zhongbao become the meat in the bowl of certain families or factions. And his existence could make those people not dare to unscrupulously suck blood from Zhongbao.

In this way, he became the thorn in the eye and the flesh in the side that the other six directors always wanted to pull out.

Perhaps they knew who they were offending, but they just wanted to take this opportunity to buckle the pot of negotiation failure on his head.

Perhaps, this was a game set up by them to pull out this thorn, regardless of national interests.

Cai Zhenrong opened his eyes. All of this was what he figured out on the plane.

With the old chief's wisdom, how could he not see these? His return was a bit redundant.

However, since he was back, let's go see the old chief. After all, they hadn't met for almost a year.

The taxi stopped in front of the military district rest home in Dongcheng. Cai Zhenrong pushed the door and got out of the car, and said to the two accompanying staff members.

"I haven't been home for a long time. I'll give you two days off. Go home and rest for two days and get together with your family."

After speaking, Cai Zhenrong took out his work permit, registered at the entrance of the rest home, and walked in.

The old chief never married in his life and had no children, so after retirement, he took the initiative to come to the rest home.

At this time, the old chief should be in the activity center, either playing table tennis or playing chess.

Sure enough, Cai Zhenrong entered the activity center and saw the old chief playing table tennis with another old man at a glance.

He walked over silently, but didn't disturb, but stood on the side and watched quietly.

After more than ten minutes, the two old men seemed to feel tired and stopped.

The old man opposite wiped his face with a towel draped around his neck, pointed at Cai Zhenrong and said with a smile.

"This kid has been here for a while, is he looking for you."

"Old Chief!"

Cai Zhenrong stood there straight. Although he wasn't wearing a military uniform, he still gave a military salute.

"I knew you might come back."

The old chief put the racket on the table and walked toward the rest area.

"Sit here for a while."

Cai Zhenrong followed the old chief to the rest area, and the old man holding a big tea mug also walked over.
