Section 4         Split-up Meeting

Life is like the stock market. After great ups and downs, there will always be a peaceful date.

In the following days, although it was still undercurrent, my life was calm on the surface. After returning from Feng Ying, I stopped going to Hualan, and Zhang Fangtian and Peng Yao also returned to the temporary office in Xijing to do things. Hualan's affairs have been explained to the people below, and they are mainly preparing to take over the overall situation.

When I was fine, I would occasionally appear in the office, but I didn't care too much about it. I let Zhang Fangtian and the others do everything. The incident of my shooting in Shunde is now spreading in the circle, and people are indifferent to me and not prosecuting me.

The fireworks woman was still chatting online, and she was getting more and more casual, and she felt very natural. When she went to Liu Ning’s class, she felt that Liu Ning was watching me intentionally or unintentionally. But I had no intention at the moment, so I just pretended not to see it, and looked down and took notes as if I were good students.

Every week, Feng Ying's secretary would report to me about Ulan's condition, but Feng Ying didn't call me again. Loulanxue still looked like that. She wanted to get tired of me after being alone, but she deliberately pretended to be a little distance in front of her. I asked her many times that there was no need to be so deliberate, but she insisted on doing this, and I don't know what to do.

Before we knew it, the time had come to June 1, 2007. Before that, all the work that took over the overall situation had been coordinated. Then, on this day, the shareholders' meeting of United Tourism Group, or what we can call the China-wide underground forces gathering was held.

The meeting was held at the venue, Hong Kong, the most free city in China.

There were more than 200 people participating in the meeting, all of whom were gangsters from all over the country who had close ties with the gambling industry. These people belonged to Feng Ying and Zhang Hong's camps, but they themselves had a very high degree of autonomy. Feng Ying and Zhang Hong were just deterred or influenced them and could not completely dominate their ideas.

It should be said that the status of Feng Ying and Zhang Hong is more like the so-called position of the martial arts leader in ancient times. They are connected with the forces in their camp because of their powerful relationship and do not have the dominance of the law. However, relatively speaking, Zhang Hong's control over the members of his camp is much stronger than that of Feng Ying. After all, many of these bosses were diverted from him.

In addition to the two major camps of Feng Ying and Zhang Hong, among these forces, there are also some relatively smaller and more loose alliances of forces. For example, Zhang Zhenlong and Peng Yao, they have some control over a considerable number of bosses.

In short, these more than 200 people almost represent the survival group of underground forces in contemporary China. There is a certain order and rules between them, and everyone plays the game according to this rule and order. If anyone takes the initiative to violate this order and rules, then this person, whether the superior or the inferior, will suffer a huge backlash.

And among all these orders and rules, the most important thing is eternal and unchanging, and there is only one - interests first.

As for the theme of this meeting, it is naturally to discuss the comprehensive integration of the gambling institutions in everyone's hands and form a unified world's largest gambling group - United Tourism Group.

Like all the meetings that many people participated in, this meeting was not short, expected to be held for seven days, but in fact it lasted for a full twelve days. Although I think it doesn’t matter whether I will show up in the previous meeting, as the current president of United Tourism, I have to attend every round of meetings and meet almost all the underworld bosses.

At first I saw a guy with a thick gold chain weighing half a pound, and a hideous smile, or a thin and serious person, as if he wanted to kill the machine gun from all over the world, and nodding and bowing politely to you, to be honest, he was really full of accomplishment. But when you have more times like this, you feel a little burden. This feels like you have been wandering in the park for a long time.

Especially the ten-day days of explaining the joint plan, I almost collapsed. Because in the entire plan, we divided the gangs in China into seven regions, East China, South China, North China, South China, South China, South China, South China, South China, North China, and North China. Then, based on the current gambling turnover in these seven regions, the residents' consumption in the entire region, and the overseas gambling income and potential of this region, we divided all the income into seven parts and distributed them to the bosses in the seven regions. Then the bosses in these seven regions sat down and shared the spoils.

Before the meeting, the shares of the seven major regions were determined, and no one felt that there was any problem. This meeting mainly determined how much profit quota can be obtained in each region. In this way, for the same overall explanation, I must speak seven times, and then sit down and listen to opinions and requirements from all parties. Because Feng Ying's influence is mainly in the north, and Zhang Hong is mainly in the south and the northeast. Therefore, when negotiating with the northern forces, Feng Ying's representative will appear, and when negotiating with the southern and the northeast forces, Zhang Hong will appear.

At the beginning, because I wanted to be civilized, the scene was so ugly. Every time, dozens of bosses sat together in a small conference room, and they were quarreling. At the end of the quarrel, there were always bosses pulling out their guns at the table, slapped them with red faces and thick necks, "Damn, fight one-on-one..."

At this time, I had no choice but to raise my head and sigh, "Quality...Quality..."

After a week of struggle, we didn't talk about a single area. In this way, I finally learned my lesson and did not engage in democracy. I told Feng Ying and Zhang Hong directly that you two sides would send two generals to help me. So, Zhang Zhenlong and Zhang Fangtian sent by Feng Ying, and Zhang Hong were better, and Zhang Hong took action personally.

This way, things are simple.

Every time I explain a region for half a day, after the explanation, I slapped the table with my hands and roared, "Whoever agrees after I say it, whoever agrees or opposes." Then, Zhang Fangtian, Zhang Zhenlong or Zhang Hong beside me would squint his eyes and slowly scan the faces of these bosses one by one. Because the pre-distribution was as fair as possible, there were still no too biased areas, and they were just small things. For such small things, they did not have the courage to fight with their leader. So they all raised their hands to vote for it.

In this way, under the power of the fox and tiger, the profit distribution plan of the joint plan was quickly explained. The profits of the Zhang Hong faction and the Feng Ying faction were almost equally divided, and the interests of Zhang Hong's own forces and Feng Ying's own forces were also guaranteed.

By the way, there is another funny thing in this process, that is, gift giving. According to the corrupt and depraved personality of our Chinese, as long as there is a place where the distribution of interests occurs, it will definitely be accompanied by bribery and gift giving. Bribery and gift giving are an indispensable part of our lives. Many of these bosses are proficient in this, and each gift giving has its own advantages. However, there are also some bosses who really give gifts that make you laugh and cry.

For example, there is a boss from Longxi, who is very interesting. One day he came to my room and talked to me well. Suddenly, he walked to me, spread a bag, and dark coal was exposed, and then said with his eyes lightly: "President Chu, look at how good coal, it's good coal. As long as you cooperate a little more, I'll give you 100,000 tons, how about it?"

I'm going to, just give me gifts to checks, don't you just need to give me so much coal? I'll go to that room if you have nothing to do?

There is also a boss from Bohai who is also very funny. One day, he suddenly broke into my room with two subordinates, each with a large password box. As soon as he came in, without saying a word, he ran straight to my bedroom with a dark face. I thought he was here to assassinate. Who knew that as soon as he entered my room, his two subordinates threw two large boxes on my bed, and then opened it all at once. It was full of banknotes worth one thousand yuan per piece, neatly coded, and filled with two large password boxes.

Then, I saw the boss saying to me very generously: "As long as the president raises the quota for us, this and this will all be yours."

When I couldn't believe that there were people in the world who were so stupid that they gave gifts like this, the boss looked at my confused expression and broke out a sentence that made me feel overjoyed. He stepped to the password box, flipped through the money, made out the sound of paper money hitting each other, and then said loudly: "President, this money is all real. I just took it out of HSBC. Listen, listen, listen to the sound, how beautiful it is, it is absolutely real money!"

In exhaustion and funny, the negotiations on the previous most difficult profit quota finally ended, and the meeting entered the last agenda, which was the company's organizational structure. At this time, it was not a division, but more than 200 people were opening together in the conference room.

In order to ensure the smooth passage of the meeting, Zhang Hong and Feng Ying convened the most confidant and most powerful bosses in all aspects to hold a briefing in the conference room. The eight people in the entire conference room were all the core people, me, Zhang Zhenlong, Peng Yao, Zhang Hong, Feng Ying and three other bosses. The atmosphere of this meeting was different from the previous time when the profit quota was allocated. Basically, Zhang Zhenlong and Feng Ying were chanting. After reading, they raised their heads and looked at us. Then no one here expressed different opinions. Everyone passed the meeting neatly and enthusiastically.

This picture looks very much like the shareholders' meeting of listed companies in my country. The only difference is that after Zhang Hong and Feng Ying finished reading it, they looked up at the way they looked when they looked at us. I always feel like "Who agrees and whoever agrees after I finish speaking."

After the breeze meeting, Feng Ying walked out of the office with a folder in her arms, without saying a word to me. I originally wanted to chase her and say a few words to her, but I thought about chasing her and didn't know what to say, so I could only stop and chat with Zhang Hong casually. I heard him say some encouragement and then returned to the room a little lonely.

The next day, the meeting on the group's personnel arrangements was held. There was no controversy in the previous board of directors, supervisors and other links. All the listed bosses with strong strength were dared to object?

But when the meeting was about the company's president, a small problem began to arise. When the host, that is, Zhang Fangtian, said that I would be the president of the group, a boss immediately muttered, "The president is too young, right?"

Originally, at this time, I should have stood up and returned the greetings to everyone. But at this time, I did not stand up, just smiled faintly and sat upright in my seat, and glanced at the boss. I knew this person. He once begged me to help him get more quotas like a pug, but I completely rejected it. At this time, he said so simply out of revenge.

There are not only one or two people like him, and there are also some bosses who are really worried about such a young person in charge of the overall situation. The Chinese people’s habit is to not make a first bird. But as long as someone fires the first shot, there will be people who will immediately follow each other. Sure enough, another boss also said: “I also think so, although President Chu is young and promising, the position of the United Tourism President is too important, which is equivalent to mastering the lifeline of all of us. I think it should be given to a more qualified and more stable talent.”

Next, seven or eight bosses followed suit and agreed to this speech. This speech was not from a certain camp, but from Feng Ying and Zhang Hong's camp. After they finished speaking, they would naturally have some flattering bosses to support me.

After this debate lasted for two or three minutes, more and more people were involved, and the noise became louder and louder, and there were some chaos in the venue. At this time, Zhang Hong suddenly sat upright and pointed at a camp that belonged to him, but shouted the loudest boss asked: "Fatty Gao, I think you are the most suitable for this president. Do you dare to do it?"
Chapter completed!
