In terms of work efficiency, it’s got to be Deng Yan.
After just an hour, Cheng Qiaobei received a ssage from Deng Yan on his phone.
The file na was the internal financial report of Jade Jiali. Upon opening it, he found that there wasn’t much capital left on Jade Jiali’s books for operations. Similarly, the inability to secure a strong enough financing background also contributed to the hotel’s closure.
The reasons for these issues, when assessed according to Jade Jiali’s actual situation, stem from a lack of necessary managent skills and experience after the managent change.
After reviewing the financial report, Cheng Qiaobei’s expression was grave. If left unchecked, it would only be a matter of ti before Jade Jiali beca a target for a pack of hungry wolves.
Thinking of the place he had fought for, Cheng Qiaobei fell into contemplation.
In the evening, Chen Ningxi noticed he seed a bit down, closed the book in her hand, faced him, and asked:
"You look tired today."
Cheng Qiaobei: "I’m okay."
Chen Ningxi lifted his chin, observing him before confirming, "You’re unhappy, tell , what is it about."
Cheng Qiaobei forced a relaxed smile and said, "Nothing, maybe I’m just too tired."
If she couldn’t see through this, then Chen Ningxi would indeed have wasted her ti in the workplace.
Chen Ningxi said, "Can you not tell whether you’re just tired or if sothing’s bothering you? Tell if it’s sothing inconvenient to discuss."
"..." It’s not that it’s inconvenient to say, but rather he didn’t know where to begin.
Seeing his hesitant expression, Chen Ningxi said, "If you don’t want to talk, don’t. Find when you’re ready."
She stood up, just about to leave, when Cheng Qiaobei stopped her, "Ning Xi, sit down. . . . A hotel I once managed, a sales champion, has now gone bankrupt."
Chen Ningxi asked, "Which hotel?"
Cheng Qiaobei: "Li River Hotel."
Previously, Cheng Qiaobei had ntioned the Li River Hotel when sharing his experiences, saying that he had spent the longest ti there before coming to Zhoushan Hotel.
"Why did it go bankrupt?" Chen Ningxi asked.
Cheng Qiaobei gave a brief explanation of the financial and managent issues, but he knew in his heart that these two points were not the only reasons for the bankruptcy.
Chen Ningxi asked him, "Is there any way to resolve it?"
Cheng Qiaobei was silent for a mont, then said, "Either get acquired by capital or secure more robust financing."
Both thods require a strong financial backing, and given Jade Jiali’s size, ordinary capital wouldn’t dare to get involved, lest it find itself in trouble.
Seeing her deep in thought, Cheng Qiaobei didn’t want to add to her worries. The whole preparing for pregnancy thing was already exhausting for her.
Cheng Qiaobei said, "It has nothing to do with us, don’t think about it anymore."
Chen Ningxi looked at him; truly unrelated to him?
Evidently, the answer was no.
Cheng Qiaobei’s concern made it seem as though Jade Jiali faced more severe crises.
Just as the two were getting close, Cheng Xiangheng’s call ca through, annoying Cheng Qiaobei.
"Hello?" He spoke with displeasure.
Cheng Xiangheng asked him, "Are you at ho?"
Cheng Qiaobei made a sound of agreent, and the other side said anxiously, "I’m outside your residential area, co out for a chat."
It seed Cheng Xiangheng couldn’t stay put any longer, but Cheng Qiaobei didn’t want to see him now.
"I’m about to sleep, let’s talk tomorrow."
Cheng Xiangheng paused and said, "Qiaobei,"
Cheng Qiaobei remained silent, listening to the person on the other end say, "Jade Jiali closed three more hotels a few days ago. If this continues, both you and I know that it won’t be long before Jade Jiali faces an even more severe situation. Qiaobei, reconsider the conditions I ntioned to you last ti."
Cheng Qiaobei looked back at the person on the sofa, "Let’s solve the imdiate issue first, and deal with other matters later."
Cheng Xiangheng said, "Since I want to help, I’m waiting for you at the entrance."
He hung up after speaking.
Cheng Qiaobei turned to Chen Ningxi, "Old Cheng is waiting for at the entrance of the residential area, I’ll be right back."
Chen Ningxi looked worried, and Cheng Qiaobei smiled, "It’s okay."
From a distance, Cheng Qiaobei saw the Maybach parked at the entrance. The driver jogged out to open the door for him after seeing him.
Cheng Qiaobei nodded at the driver and sat in the back seat, and Cheng Xiangheng said, "Coming by so late, I must have disturbed your rest."
"Knowing you’re disturbing , you should have found during the dayti," Cheng Qiaobei replied coldly.
Cheng Xiangheng was left speechless, "The situation is urgent, so I had to disturb your rest."
"Haha..." Cheng Qiaobei laughed coldly, "You’re still the sa as before, both relying on and trying to manipulate . When will you ever be honest?"
Cheng Xiangheng ignored this and asked, "The company closed three more hotels, and if it keeps developing this way, it might..."
He didn’t finish, but Cheng Qiaobei got the ssage.
Cheng Qiaobei: "In just a few months, your hotels have repeatedly closed; you should have thought of a solution long ago, not look for at the last minute."
Cheng Xiangheng said, "Like you said, since it has already happened, let’s accept it frankly. The hotels were running well before, then suddenly the revenues of three hotels plumted, and I’m having a hard ti with it."
Cheng Qiaobei asked, "Have you investigated the reasons?"
Cheng Xiangheng said, "The cash flow broke down, and Li River Hotel hasn’t paid the staff for three months now. Even those cleaning ladies have left until only one remained."
Cheng Qiaobei asked, "Since you know where the problem lies, you should know how to address it."
Cheng Xiangheng said, "Do you have any way to let Jade Jiali rise from the ashes in a short ti?"
The fact that he could ask this question showed that he had already thought of what to do.
Cheng Qiaobei countered, "If you have sothing to say, just say it directly, I’m not interested in beating around the bush with you right now."
Cheng Xiangheng paused before saying, "It can be introducing Jade Jiali to other more powerful hotels, or introducing to Zou Yong."
Truly ruthless and thick-skinned, even wanting to use him who had already left the company.
Cheng Qiaobei: "..."
Seeing him sitting still as a statue, Cheng Xiangheng wanted to urge him but feared annoying him and thus refusing to help.
"Did you co to just to discuss these things?" Cheng Qiaobei asked.
Cheng Xiangheng sensed his foul mood, but aside from him, there was no one else he could negotiate with now.
"There’s no one trustworthy left in the group; I can only discuss with you. There are many voices within the company, and I know people have started to take sides among the shareholders."
Cheng Qiaobei asked, "How many people are on your side?"
Cheng Xiangheng frowned, "Not many."
To Cheng Qiaobei, not many ant being isolated and helpless.
"You want to rectify the group now, but alas," Cheng Qiaobei said, "alas, it’s too late."
Cheng Xiangheng did not want to admit it, but the reality forced him to, "Is there no solution?"
Cheng Qiaobei turned his head, his eyes indifferent, "If there were a solution, would you still need to co to ?"
Cheng Xiangheng said, "The group I founded with my own hands, how did it end up like this."
Cheng Qiaobei mocked rcilessly, "The state of today was also caused by you."
