Two days later, Su Lei and others completed the independent investigation of Shunfa Aluminum Loan Project.

The results of this investigation were not ideal, which was expected by Su Lei. Tianma Group's overall external liabilities were nearly 10 billion yuan. In the past few years, with government intervention, it helped several other large enterprises bear debts and acquired a large number of non-performing assets. However, the operations of these non-performing enterprises have not improved, resulting in the continued deterioration of the operations of Tianma Group in recent years.

However, Su Lei is not Wang Chong. He does not have the courage to confront the world, especially the loan was instructed by the superior authorities. Wang Chong said that all problems should be exposed. When Su Lei wrote the investigation report, he also followed the principle of due diligence exemption and objectively responded to the problem.

That night, Qi Zhongyuan and his son held a banquet to entertain the project team at a private club. Su Lei was originally surprised. How could Qi Zhongyuan entertain a branch manager? When everyone sat down, Su Lei found that there were three empty seats on the entire round table, and there were obviously other guests.

After a while, I heard someone beside the door, "Chairman Qi, I'm sorry, we're late."

Su Lei and others looked at it, it was Vice President Li Youtian and Liu Jianguo. When the entire project team saw the arrival of the senior executives of Donghua Bank, they quickly stood up and said, "Hello President Li, Hello President Liu."

Qi Zhongyuan said: "The two presidents are busy. Being able to come to me as a guest will make my house shine brightly."

Liu Jianguo smiled and said, "If Chairman Qi was all Pengli, wouldn't our entire Donghua City live in a pigpen?"

Everyone laughed.

During the whole banquet, Qi Zhongyuan was the main accompaniment, Qi Beiwang was the deputy accompaniment, and Zhao Xiaocheng was the third accompaniment.

Qi Zhongyuan guided the two to sit in the position of the deputy guest. In the position of the three guest, Li Youtian ranked higher in Donghua Bank than Liu Jianguo, while Liu Jianguo was a longer grade. The two refused each other for a while. Finally, Liu Jianguo sat in the position of the deputy guest on the left side of the Qi Zhongyuan, "Then brother, I'm not polite."

Su Lei looked at the empty guest seat of the guest of honor and thought that there would definitely be important guests coming soon, but he didn't know which leader he was, and it wouldn't be President Lin.

Qi Zhongyuan did not wait for the host to take his seat and started the banquet directly.

The dishes were relatively simple, not large in weight, but they were very exquisitely cooked. Twelve people served a total of six, eight, and fourteen dishes. When they arrived in Qizhongyuan, Liu Jianguo was at his age and rarely pursued expensive and unreal things, and paid more attention to the quality of the ingredients.

Qi Zhongyuan said: "This chicken soup mushroom pot uses wild mountain mushrooms from the deep mountains and forests of Changbai Mountain, accompanied by ginseng, Cordyceps sinensis, plus twelve kinds of precious medicinal materials, and served with pheasants hunted from Donghua Mountain. It was cooked for five hours. Let's try how it tastes."

Liu Jianguodao: "If you want to talk about delicious food, I'm afraid there will be no experts like Mr. Qi in the entire Donghua City."

Qi Zhongyuan said, "I remember that in the 1959th, I was only seven years old. I remember that the whole village could not eat. The wild vegetables in the village were dug up, and even the bark of the elm tree was gnawed. At that time, I was thinking that when I grew up, I would definitely be a chef and eat all the delicious food in the world. Later I realized that the chef cooked for others to eat. Haha."

Zhang Feifan asked, "Can elm bark be eaten?"

Qi Zhongyuan said, "People are extremely hungry, there is nothing to eat. You are at your age and have caught up with a good time. You have never experienced that era. Now look at yourself, you are old."

Zhao Xiaocheng said, "The chairman is still strong."

Qi Zhongyuan pretended to be angry and said, "If you guys are all good at doing things, I should have a grandson to live my life at my age!"

Zhao Xiaocheng said, "Then it depends on President Qi."

When Qi Zhongyuan was young, his family was poor and could not marry a wife. It was not until he was in his thirties that he married the daughter of a butcher in his neighboring village. Fortunately, Qi Zhongyuan's net worth has soared over the years, and the couple's relationship has become harmonious. However, his son Qi Beiwang was a little dandy. Although he was already married, he did not have a single son or a half daughter. Moreover, Qi Beiwang could not restrain his temperament and was flirting with other people all day long, which made Qi Zhongyuan very dissatisfied.

Li Youtian said: "Young Master Qi is young and promising. He manages Tianma Group in an orderly manner at a young age. He is also a phoenix among the people."

Although Qi Zhongyuan knew what his son was, he still felt proud when he heard the praise from outsiders. He picked up the wine glass and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this guy. I will bring three glasses of wine. The first one is to thank the wine. On behalf of Tianma Group, I would like to thank the President Jianguo, President Youtian, and the brothers of the entire project team. I have worked hard for our Tianma Group during this period."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.

"This second wine is please wine. Our Shunfa Aluminum project may have some minor flaws in business, and we also want to ask the two presidents and the managers here to give in to it."

Liu Jianguo told Su Lei and others: "Banks are all about risk. Where can I do a perfect company in the world? Who guarantees that the loans released are 100% risk-free? The key is to manage risks, discover risks in a timely manner, and take effective measures to avoid risks. This is what the account manager should do."

At this time, someone said outside the door: "What are you so sorry?"

Before he finished speaking, a middle-aged man walked out of the door. Everyone here looked in a voice and stood up one after another, "Hello Mayor Li!"

The visitor was Li Yongjun, deputy mayor in charge of economy and finance in Donghua City. Li Yongjun waved his hand and signaled everyone to sit down and said to Qi Zhongyuan, "Old Qi, I'm really sorry. I'm late to report my work at the secretary's side today. I'm sorry!"

Qi Zhongyuan smiled and said, "Mayor Li is giving me face to be able to come and enjoy the glory. How can I blame you?"

Li Yongjun glanced at everyone and frowned, "Why didn't Lin Tianhua come?"

Liu Jianguo and Li Youtian did not expect that Qi Zhongyuan would treat him tonight and actually invited the deputy mayor. Although they were the deputy governors of Donghua Bank, they were far from Li Yongjun in terms of rank. According to the principle of rank reciprocity, this banquet today was at least the chairman and President Lin met each other's identity.

Qi Zhongyuan said: "Governor Lin has something to do at home and can't come anymore. He also asked me to ask Mayor Li for leave. Mayor Li asks to sit down."

Li Yongjun said oh and said, "Don't be busy. I'll have a meeting later. I'm late. I'm late. Please bring some wine. Please feel free to everyone." As he said that, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

Everyone dared not be negligent, and they filled the wine in their glasses and drank it all in one go.

Li Yongjun said to Qi Zhongyuan, "I still have something to do, so I won't leave much."

Qi Zhongyuan nodded repeatedly, and Li Yongjun said to everyone in Donghua Bank, "I have been instructed by the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to express my gratitude to your bank for being able to support Tianma Group and support the development of Donghua City's real economy. The city attaches great importance to this loan from Tianma Group. Secretary Tian and Mayor Zhao have also called many times to inquire about the progress, hoping that your bank can also pay attention to it. Remember, the economic situation is not very good now, finance requires stability, and society requires stability. Secretary Tian has emphasized more than once that in the severe situation, the financial department must closely contact enterprises to help enterprises overcome difficulties." He paused and added: "This is a political task."

Liu Jianguo hurriedly said, "Please rest assured Mayor Li, we will definitely live up to the leadership's instructions."

Qi Zhongyuan invited Mayor Li to stand up for him today. Although he was just showing his side and did not say it clearly, the signal released was already very obvious, that is, the loan must be passed. Even Su Lei couldn't help but wonder if he should go back and revise the investigation report.

Li Yongjun said, "Okay, you guys continue, I'll say goodbye first." Everyone stood up and saw him off. Li Yongjun waved his hand, and Qi Zhongyuan went out to see him off in person. After a moment, Qi Zhongyuan came back and said, "Okay, I can't bear it. You young people drink more, don't be restrained." He also left the banquet.

As soon as the two left, Qi Beiwang sat in the seat of the main escort. Zhao Xiaocheng changed to the deputy escort, and the waiter changed to new tableware. Qi Beiwang said, "There are so many seats, so you can't be empty. Xiaocheng will arrange it."

Zhao Xiaocheng went out and made a phone call. A few minutes later, three or four beauties came to the financing department and joined the table. Zhang Feifan recognized that one of them was Liu Xiao, who also went to the Chengdong Branch with Zhao Xiaocheng last time.

Without the constraints of Qi Zhongyuan, everyone drank happily until after nine o'clock. Liu Jianguo, Li Youtian, Qi Beiwang and others said goodbye first, while Zhao Xiaocheng took the project team to KTV to sing until after one o'clock in the morning before going back.

The next day, the investigation report that Su Lei revisited was reported. On the same day, Wang Chong put forward three conditions for the loan. The matter of Chairman Qi Zhongyuan's unlimited joint and several guarantee liability was left unresolved.

In just two or three days, the branch loan review meeting and the head office loan review meeting were passed in succession and sent to Lin Tianhua's desk. According to the rules of procedure for the loan review meeting, the president has a veto power. Whether the loan is released or not depends entirely on whether Lin Tianhua exercises the veto power.

This made Lin Tianhua very troubled. He originally asked Wang Chong to do this business. With Wang Chong's character, the loan could not be reported so quickly, but Wang Chong was suspended for investigation. As a result, all the pressure was concentrated on him. Tianma Group had already asked several groups of people to come to Lin Tianhua to talk about the situation, which made Lin Tianhua very embarrassed. On the one hand, he also knew that Tianma Group's current business conditions were not good, and it might cause bad things if it was released. On the other hand, the city government leaders used the hat of being political, party spirit, and taking the overall situation into consideration to suppress him, which made him feel upset.

He glanced at the loan application information and the loan review meeting resolution and asked: "Secretary Li, have Wang Chong's investigation results come out?"

Secretary Li said: "I asked this morning, and the discipline inspection office is still working on it, saying that I need to verify some details."

Lin Tianhua said in a hurry: "What are you doing for? Such a messy thing has been a week, and it hasn't been done yet?"

Secretary Li had no choice but to say, "I'll go and urge you now."

Lin Tianhua called Wang Chong, and Wang Chong said opposite the phone: "President Lin!"

"What are you doing?"

Wang Chong replied: "I'm shopping with my friends."

“What streets are you visiting during working hours?”

"President, I'm suspended now."

Wang Chong said angrily: "What are you going to stop? Get over here quickly. Give you thirty minutes."

Wang Chong said: "Lin Xing, I'm in the east district of the city."

Lin Tianhua said: "Fifteen minutes! Otherwise, don't come to work."
Chapter completed!
