Hearing his cousin's words, Liang Fengshan's heart froze. He hurriedly said to Shangguan Zongze: "The total assets of Shangguan Zongze, Fengshan Group and Tianhe should be worth one hundred and thirty dollars."
Billion, right? In this case, even if we don’t have any money to pay back to the bank for the time being, it shouldn’t be a problem.”
But Shangguan Zongze shook his head: "The total production equipment and factories of Fengshan Group should be more than 3 billion. However, the factories under Fengshan Group were originally state-owned enterprises, and they had a huge amount before we acquired them.
It’s a big debt. In the past, it didn’t matter. But now, the bank will check our financial situation, so those debts will also be added to our liabilities. In this case, the total assets of Fengshan Group
Only about 2.5 billion."
Originally, the state-owned beverage companies acquired by Fengshan Group all owed a lot of debt due to the corruption of their leadership. After the acquisition by Fengshan Group, those debts were transferred to the finance of Fengshan Group. If it is
In the past, due to Liang Xuntang's relationship, no one dared to collect debts from Fengshan Group. Those debts were just figures on Fengshan Group's accounts.
But now, the bank wants to investigate Fengshan Group, a "large loan borrower", and since this time it was directly ordered by the State Council, although Liang Xuntang is behind Fengshan Group, the bank does not dare to show favoritism, so the Fengshan Group's accounts
Those figures will directly become the liabilities of Fengshan Group.
Shangguan Zongze continued: "Also, the asset value of 'Tianhe' is not as much as 8 billion. Although the mineral water development rights in Jingyu County cannot be sold, this will not affect its own value. The mineral springs in Jingyu County
The value of the water development rights plus the production base is still 4 billion, and the technical development department and other factories of 'Tianhe' are estimated to be worth 1.5 billion. Therefore, the value of all the assets of 'Tianhe' is
Only 5.5 billion."
"You, didn't you say before that 'Tianhe' is worth eight billion?" Liang Fengshan asked.
"That was before Tianhe sold the formula and production rights of 'Fruit Orange' to Coca-Cola."
Liang Fengshan's expression changed greatly, and he asked again: "But, didn't Coca-Cola and PepsiCo also spend more than 7 billion to acquire Tianhe? If 'Tianhe' is only worth 5.5 billion, how could they be willing to do it?"
Shangguan Zongze said: "I don't know about this. Maybe they know that 'Tianhe' has other values."
Liang Fengshan's expression kept changing. This time, he was really panicking. The total assets of Fengshan Group and Tianhe Beverage Group were only 8 billion, and the loans he owed to China Construction Bank and ICBC were 130.
There is a difference of more than five billion.
"Our company's working capital is almost 1 billion." Shangguan Zongze said: "In this case, the difference between our company's assets and liabilities is more than 4 billion. But in fact, assets are not only the company's fixed assets and current
Assets, as well as intangible assets, such as our company's brand, and our company's development potential. Therefore, if the valuation report can be made more beautiful, the bank will not have a big problem."
After listening to Shangguan Zongze's words, Liang Fengshan breathed a sigh of relief and his face became less ugly.
On the surface, Shangguan Zongze was comforting Liang Fengshan, but in fact he sneered in his heart: "It will never be that simple. Zhou Hao's tricks are not over yet."
Sure enough, as soon as Shangguan Zongze finished speaking, a secretary opened the door and walked in with a very anxious look on his face.
Liang Fengshan was already in a bad mood, and when he saw the secretary acting recklessly, he immediately cursed: "What the hell is going on with you? You didn't even knock on the door?"
"General... General Manager, I'm sorry." The secretary apologized quickly, and then said: "Something happened. Coca-Cola Company filed a lawsuit with the Supreme Court, accusing our company of infringing their patent."
This news was like a bomb dropped into Liang Fengshan's heart, making his head roar loudly. He said angrily: "How is it possible? How could Coca-Cola suddenly sue us?"
The secretary said: "The Coca-Cola Company said that they had purchased the 'Orange' formula of 'Tianhe' before, and they also held a press conference, saying that our company's 'Fresh Orange' infringed on the 'Orange' formula.
patent."
Coca-Cola acquired Tianhe Beverage Group’s “Orange” formula and production rights, so the patent protection that Tianhe Beverage Group originally applied for from the state was also transferred to Coca-Cola’s name.
Liang Fengshan knew full well that he had indeed sent someone to steal the formula of "Fruit Orange". He said: "What evidence do Coca-Cola have to say that we have infringed on their patent? They are framed!"
Seeing Liang Fengshan's face that looked very ferocious due to rage, the secretary took a step back in fear and said timidly: "The general manager, the sales department, the personnel department and the production department manager, they... they..."
"What happened to them?" Liang Fengshan shouted.
"They attended Coca-Cola's press conference and proved that our company sent people to steal the formula of 'Fruit Orange'."
"What!" Liang Fengshan felt like a thunderbolt, because he never expected that the managers of three important departments of his company would betray him at the same time and accuse him of stealing the formula of "Fruit Orange".
Shangguan Zongze on the side also had ups and downs in his heart. He subconsciously guessed that the reason why the three managers defected from Fengshan Group might not be because of Coca-Cola, but because of Zhou Hao. However, judging from the current situation, there was no such thing.
People will think of Zhou Hao, and will firmly believe that this is a move made by Coca-Cola to protect its own interests.
Regarding this lawsuit, Fengshan Group has a very low chance of winning. Because when Fengshan Group had a previous lawsuit with Tianhe, the court had already ruled that the formula of "Fruit Orange" was the patent of "Tianhe", which is now Coca-Cola's.
The patent has been issued, and now three managers of Fengshan Group have come forward to testify. This is very strong evidence.
On the other hand, the scale of Coca-Cola and Tianhe are not at the same level. Even if the Jiangsu Provincial Government intends to protect Fengshan Group, it will not help, because Coca-Cola is a very famous group in the world, and a little carelessness may cause diplomatic problems.
question.
As a result, Fengshan Group's most important product, "Fresh Orange Duo," is likely to be ordered to cease production. At the same time, Fengshan Group's brand and reputation will be destroyed.
"Mr. Liang, in this case, our group's intangible assets will be gone." Shangguan Zongze spoke at this time, "And this time our company is not only insolvent, our company's reputation has been ruined, and its development potential has also been destroyed.
It has been greatly reduced, so our company is not only insolvent, but also has no ability to repay its debts."
He sighed, "And now China Construction Bank and ICBC have to strictly inspect loan projects, so they are likely to force our company to go bankrupt and liquidate to repay the loan."
Liang Fengshan's face turned pale, and suddenly his legs gave way and he sat down on the ground, muttering: "How...how could this happen..."
The day before, he was still immersed in the excitement of defeating Zhou Hao, but he didn't expect to be in this situation today.
Moreover, this time it is not only the bankruptcy of Fengshan Group, but also Liang Xuntang. Liang Xuntang is not only hopeless for promotion, but may also be subject to disciplinary investigation due to financial problems, and may even be shaken as governor.
At this moment, another secretary also came in, followed by more than a dozen people wearing uniforms and a few suits and leather shoes. When the secretary saw Liang Fengshan sitting on the ground with a dejected expression, he was shocked for a moment, and then hesitated.
He said: "General... General Manager, these are comrades from the Ministry of Public Security. They said they want to ask you to help investigate the theft of the 'Fruit Orange' formula. And these few are from the China Banking Regulatory Commission. They said they would like
Investigate our company's finances."
The leader stepped forward and said to Liang Fengshan: "Mr. Liang, we are from the Economic Crime Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security. We would like to ask you to help investigate the Fengshan Group's theft of the 'Fruit Orange' formula. Please come back with us."
.”
It may be that Coca-Cola knew that Fengshan Group was in Beijing, so it put pressure on the Chinese government and asked the Ministry of Public Security to directly open a case for investigation.
Liang Fengshan trembled violently, then pointed to Shangguan Zongze over there and shouted: "I have no idea about the 'Guolicheng' formula. He is responsible for everything. If you arrest him, it has nothing to do with me.
It’s none of my business!”
Shangguan Zongze's expression changed. He did not expect that Liang Fengshan would put the blame on himself in this situation. Before he could say anything, two men came over and clamped him, and the commander just said
: "Take them all back together!"
Although Liang Fengshan was also going to be taken away, he was not too worried. If an ordinary person entered the Public Security Bureau, he would have to shed a layer of skin even if he did not die. But after all, he is the son of the provincial governor, and at least he will not be tortured.
Forced confession.
However, those people from the China Banking Regulatory Commission also came up and said to Liang Fengshan: "Mr. Liang, we are from the China Banking Regulatory Commission. Because your Fengshan Group owes China Construction Bank and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China a total of 13.5 billion."
60 million loan, so we want to check your company's financial status, please cooperate with us."
Liang Fengshan raised his eyes and looked at the serious-looking staff of the Banking Regulatory Commission. His face became a little more depressed, and he murmured to himself: "It's over...it's all over this time..."
