Chapter 1264 Lessons learned
"Jingyi, what are you saying? Your dad naturally has his reasons for doing what he did." Shen Jingbin"s mother immediately said when she heard this. Although she knew that her husband"s actions were a bit excessive and was basically playing with Zhang Lei and Ji Feng, she knew that if others said these words, Jing Yi"s words would cause her husband to lose face.
Shen Jicheng"s face darkened, "Kids, what do you know?!"
Shen Jingbin shook her head and said, "Forget it, I"m going to eat."She could see that her father was not aware of his mistake at all, so what she said was a waste of time. When the lesson was deep enough, his father would naturally understand.
Seeing her daughter turn around and walk into the restaurant, Mother Shen couldn"t help but sigh, "Old Shen, what Jingyi said isn"t completely unreasonable. I think that this is because Jingyi felt like she was being played and was angry, so … Do you want to give Little Lei a call and tell me about it? "
Hearing that, Shen Jiucheng"s face immediately darkened, "What did he say? Apologize to him? "She"s not even married yet, but she"s already learning to elbow-end. Jingyi is his girlfriend, how can he be compared to a friend?"
Mother Shen shook her head, "This is different...""What"s different? "Alright, I know what I"m doing. Don"t say anymore." Shen Jiucheng waved his hand, and snorted: "I don"t believe that we need to eat boar after leaving Zhang Tu"s house?"
"..."
When her mother saw this, she could only shake her head.
She could tell that her husband was very angry. Moreover, he still hadn"t realized what it meant to pa.s.s a beginner level mental cultivation method to him. He had thought that it was a tactful attempt to tell him that it was impossible to borrow a martial arts method.
Actually, what caused Shen Jingbin"s mother to worry even more was, just like what her daughter said, her husband had really changed over the past two years. Previously, there were still constraints within the family that prevented him from using his martial arts.However, in the past two years, her husband had become more and more flamboyant. His self-confidence had rapidly expanded and he had almost forgotten who he was.
The Shen Group started construction of several buildings at the same time, and even stepped into other industries that they had never entered before. Moreover, under the situation of borrowing money, he completely relied on the backing of the Tong family, thinking that there was nothing that he could not do in the Lanjiang River, which was enough to show how conceited his husband was.If this goes on, it doesn"t matter whether the Shen Corporation will be in danger or not. The most important thing is, if his husband doesn"t wake up, then his entire life will be ruined.
Shen Jingbin"s mother was worried, while Shen Jiucheng was feeling both agitated and annoyed.That night, Shen Jiucheng was so angered that he didn"t even eat his food. His daughter"s words made him feel infuriated, as well as extremely embarra.s.sed. What angered him even more was what Zhang Lei and Ji Feng did.
Although Shen Jicheng did not know whether that rumor was released by Ji Feng or Zhang Lei, he believed that Ji Feng"s face was still big. But Zhang Lei must be aware, these two little rascals actually dared to do such a thing, and did not even put him in their eyes.
Especially Zhang Lei, who made Shen Jiucheng angry. Zhang Lei was his future son-in-law, he was actually standing up for outsiders!
"I don"t believe that the Shen Corporation won"t be able to live if they leave you." Shen Jiucheng harrumphed coldly in his heart.Early the next morning, Shen Jiusheng left the house early to prove that the Shen family could live well without anyone else.
"President Xu, we haven"t seen each other in a long time. How about this? I"ll be the host tonight. How about going to the fis.h.i.+ng village and having a drink?" Shen Jiucheng said to a middle-aged man with a smile on his face.
"Boss Shen, I"m really sorry, I"ve already made an appointment tonight." President Xu smiled, "Next time then. Next time, I"ll invite you."
"So that"s how it is. Next time then." Shen Jicheng smiled and said, "I"m here today because I have another matter to attend to. The loan from Shen Group will expire in three months. What I mean is, I hope that President Xu can help to do an extension …"
Before Shen Jicheng could finish his words, he was interrupted by President Xu, "CEO Shen, I"m really sorry. You should also know about the current policy, the upper echelons are shrinking. It"s unlikely for them to extend the deadline."
Shen Jisheng was stunned, he still wanted to say something, but then he heard President Xu say: "Also, the loan you are applying for, I"m afraid you won"t be able to get it."
"How could that be?"Shen Jicheng"s expression changed, "President Xu, this …"
President Xu shook his head, "CEO Shen, I"m really sorry. However, this is the policy of the management. There"s nothing I can do about it."He naturally knew that President Xu had not told the truth. Even if it was a matter of policy, President Xu would definitely have some measure of activity in his hands. But now that President Xu had said this, the meaning was very clear; even if he were to point it out, it would only end up causing everyone to feel awkward.
Shen Jiucheng took his leave.
What he did not know was that just as he walked out of the office, President Xu picked up the phone, "Credit department, it"s me. You have to keep an eye on Shen Group"s loan. You have to keep it as it is when it expires!"
… ….
"Bam!"
Shen Jicheng slammed his briefcase onto the leather seat of the limousine. His face was terrifyingly gloomy.
This was already the third bank, but the answers he got were all the same, to the point where even the governors of the three banks had to come up with similar excuses.
This means, if this continues, in at most half a year, the Shen Group"s capital chain will break. At that time, the Shen Group will no longer belong to the Shen Family.
"Dingdang …"Shen Jicheng"s phone suddenly rang. It was from his secretary. The moment he picked it up, he heard his secretary"s anxious voice.
"Chairman, it"s bad, I just received a report from the production line, they don"t have much raw materials left, I immediately contacted the supplier, but the supplier said due to the production capacity problem, they need to delay the supply of raw materials for a period of time …"
"What?!"
Shen Jiucheng was practically roaring out loud. Was there a problem with the production line?
There was a problem with the real estate, but he did not expect that there would be a problem even with the production line. This was simply …
In the blink of an eye, three days pa.s.sed.
In these three days, Shen Jiucheng felt as if three years had pa.s.sed.
The Shen Group had a huge problem.In the real estate market, he no longer had any hopes, but what he did not expect was that the other businesses of the Shen Group would have problems as well. In just a few days, the Shen Group had become unstable, and were even in a precarious situation.
The entire Lan Jiang city seemed to know that there was a problem with the Shen Corporation, and even some of their partners outside the city. They all started to try to break off their cooperation with the Shen Corporation, and some even urged them to pay for the goods.
Some of their partners had even said that if Shen Group didn"t return the money, they would sue and let the court enforce the law …
Shen Jiucheng was forced into a corner.
Such a big matter couldn"t be hidden from others, the people of the Shen family knew about it two days later, and some strange things started to happen. There were even people in the family saying that in these two years, Shen Jiucheng had been supercilious and thought that he was a child just because he had a future son-in-law of the Tong family!
Others said that Shen Jiucheng was not suited to be the chairman of the Shen Group, saying that he was a vile character who lost his mind the moment he achieved his goals.
When these words reached Shen Jiucheng"s ears, his face darkened even more than the bottom of a pot, but there was nothing he could do.
When the Old Master of the Shen family received the news, he reprimanded Shen Jiucheng even more harshly.
Shen Jicheng finally realized what kind of mistake he had made.
He discovered that he had been too conceited previously. After the Shen Corporation left the Tong Clan, they would not be able to live on, much less be able to live comfortably.
"Old Shen, how about I give Xiao Lei a call?"
Looking at her husband"s bloodshot eyes, Shen Jingbin"s mother couldn"t bear to see them.
"Mom!" Even now, you are still defending him! " Shen Jingyi couldn"t help saying, "Did you forget that before Ji Feng left, he didn"t show any signs of anger towards you? He wasn"t angry at you at all. Instead, he was angry at my father!"
"But …"
Mother Shen opened her mouth, but did not say anything.
Shen Jingyi said, "Do you think that asking my father to apologize to these two youngsters will cause him to lose face? Mom, have you thought about it? He came with 120% sincerity, but my dad played with him. Anyone would be angry. Furthermore, I have already told you two that Ji Feng and Zhang Lei are sworn brothers, and the relations.h.i.+p between the two of them is even closer than that of real brothers.
Looking at her father"s slightly embarra.s.sed expression, Shen Jingbin sighed, "I contacted Zhang Lei yesterday, but he said that Ji Feng did not know about this matter. If the two families are not related, then he said it. He did it according to my father"s wishes! ""As your father wishes? When did your father ever say that?! " Mother Shen couldn"t help asking.
"My dad didn"t say it, but wasn"t that what he did? That night, Zhang Lei had repeatedly emphasized how strong his relations.h.i.+p with Ji Feng was, but my dad... I didn"t give any face to Zhang Lei at all. "
Shen Jingbin"s mother didn"t know what to say. After some time, she finally said, "You clearly know that Zhang Lei did it, but you just watched your father get into such a difficult situation?!"
Shen Jingyi said, "What can I say?" Wasn"t what Zhang Lei said the truth? We shouldn"t have relied on this relations.h.i.+p to think that everything was fine! Besides, his father"s actions might have seemed normal to him, but in other people"s eyes, he had been humiliated, so how could he not be angry? He"s my boyfriend, but he doesn"t owe us, and he doesn"t owe you either! "
"Besides, Zhang Lei didn"t do anything out of line. He was just speaking the truth!" "What can I say?"
Mother Shen was speechless."This call, I"ll make it!" Shen Jicheng opened his mouth, "I apologize to them!"
