Zhang Qingxue and Chen Xi walked into Chairman's Office almost one after the other.
The expressions on both of their faces were not very good, which was completely different from the calmness they had tried to maintain in the meeting just now.
"Xiao Chen," Zhang Qingxue closed the heavy solid wood door with a rare solemnity in his voice.
"Lin Wanqing came prepared this time and was extremely ruthless.
If the label 'Bank Doubts Going Concern Ability' is slapped on, if it is not handled properly or is caught in the media, the consequences will be disastrous.
The stock price Too Big to Fail is light, and it is likely to trigger Cross-Default Clause and trigger a chain reaction."
Chen Xi also added worriedly:
"The Bank Letters she showed is most likely true.
This shows that in the past two weeks, or even earlier, she has secretly guided or allowed this unfavorable situation to form, just to launch an attack at today's meeting.
It is almost impossible to come up with a plan that can substantially change the bank's attitude in three days... three days.
She will definitely put up obstacles at every turn in this process, and she will do whatever she wants to do."
They all saw that the move Lin Wanqing was Killing Move.
Use external pressure to push internal pressure. If Zhao Chen compromises on slowing down its strategy, its prestige will be ruined;
If Zhao Chen persists and Capital Chain Crisis breaks out, he is still a sinner.
Zhao Chen is standing next to the coffee table, making tea leisurely.
Hot water was poured into Zisha Pot, and white mist curled up, covering his calm face.
"Sit." He pushed the two cups of tea handed to them by Su Wantang in front of them, and he also sat down on the main seat of the sofa, "Drink some tea and calm down."
Zhang Qingxue and Chen Xi looked at each other and sat down as they were told, but they had no intention of sipping tea.
"Why do you think Lin Wanqing chose this time to attack in this way?"
Zhao Chen picked up his cup and blew on it gently.
Chen Xi thought:
"Because she thinks she has captured the 'Achilles' Heel' of our strategy—implementation will inevitably bring pain, and pain will trigger external doubts.
And she herself, at least on the surface, has 'strictly implemented' the decision to clean up Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities, and has even 'sacrificed' her personal interests to make up for it. We will not be able to find any new leverage for her in the short term.
Therefore, she can safely question the 'decision-maker' from the perspective of the 'executor'."
Zhang Qingxue added from the legal and gaming perspective:
"She is creating a 'dead end'. She forces you to choose between 'adhering to the wrong strategy and causing the company's short-term collapse' and 'admitting strategic mistakes and losing prestige.' No matter which side she chooses, she wins."
"The analysis is all correct." Zhao Chen took a sip of tea, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly,
"But you have overlooked one point, or in other words, Lin Wanqing himself has also overlooked one point."
The two looked at him doubtfully.
"She wanted too much to prove 'Contraction Strategy' wrong, and too much wanted to create a panic atmosphere in which 'the company is on the verge of extinction due to strategic transformation'."
Zhao Chen put down the teacup, his eyes as sharp as knives,
"She focused all her firepower on exaggerating the 'difficulty'. And this is exactly what I need."
Zhang Qingxue If you realize something. "What do you mean..."
"The harder she danced and the louder she shouted, the more tightly she tied 'Bank Loan Suspension' to 'company strategy,'"
Zhao Chen said slowly,
"Then, when the company has to carry out 'Stock Issuance' financing in order to 'survive' and 'maintain bank confidence' to replenish core capital and reduce leverage, it all seems very logical."
Chen Xi's eyes lit up. "She used her actions to pave the way for our subsequent 'Open Scheme of Stock Issuance'!
The more she emphasizes now that the company is strapped for funds and has difficulties in external financing due to Strategic Contraction, the less reason she will have to disagree with Stock Issuance as a 'dutiful' Finance Director!"
"That's right." Zhao Chen nodded,
"So, you don't have to be stressed during these three days Special Task Force.
Lin Wanqing will definitely not cooperate, will definitely set up obstacles, and will definitely make the plan difficult to implement. This is exactly what I want."
He looked at Zhang Qingxue and Chen Xi and assigned the task firmly:
"What you have to do is try your best to follow this form.
But in the end, the plan presented three days later must be a version of 'Binary Opposition' – or the bank accepts our strategic narrative and renews the loan on reasonable terms;
Or, we will consider that the bank no longer has the strategic vision to cooperate with Henglong in the long term, and we will proactively and orderly prepare to cut it off and look for higher-level partners or alternative financing solutions.
There is no middle way, no compromise."
Zhang Qingxue immediately understood the meaning:
"Is this going to make the contradiction public and sharp? Put 'Henglong Strategy' and 'Traditional Bank Risk Control Logic' in completely opposite positions?"
"Yes."
Zhao Chen sneered, "The plan must be solid, the logic must be clear, and the data must be hard-core. Then, within an appropriate scope, let the tone of the plan be 'leaked'.
I want to let the management and even the market have a vague feeling that New Management of Henglong has an extremely tough attitude in the face of the short-sightedness and pressure from traditional financial institutions and would rather break than bend."
Chen Xi answered:
"On the one hand, this can create a strong image of you breaking old and creating new ones and daring to fight, and hedging against the panic spread by Lin Wanqing;
