Wang Gang, Tan Zongming and Andy were sitting in the conference room, discussing the launch plan of Ruixin Coffee.
"After Q Coffee's huge debt problem was exposed, will it have any impact on our listing plan?" Tan Zongming asked Wang Gang.
"One thing is that after the Q Coffee storm, citizens became aware of the money-making schemes used by Internet companies. Many companies were affected and their stock prices plummeted." Wang Gang said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that Wei Wei would be burdened with such a huge debt. Q Coffee was only established for a year and a half, but it would be burdened with nearly 4 billion in debt?" Andy exclaimed:
"This would be absolutely unthinkable in America?"
Wang Gang said: "my country's Internet industry started late and has made great strides, so there will be some problems in the middle. In the past, because of the rapid economic growth and everyone making money, the problems did not appear.
The storm of Q Coffee has made many people worry about the arrival of the Internet bubble."
Andy said: "I suggest postponing the listing plan of Ruixin Coffee."
Wang Gang looked at Tan Zongming and said: "As long as other shareholders agree, I have no objection."
Tan Zongming frowned and asked: "How is the financial situation of Ruixin Coffee?"
Andy smiled and said: "Ruixin Coffee's financial situation is very good, and it has started to achieve profitability in the first quarter of this year."
Tan Zongming's eyes lit up and he said: "A profit? So fast."
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Andy, show Mr. Tan the financial report."
"It has been sent to his email." Andy nodded.
Wang Gang smiled and said: "You two are really interesting. Are you so clear-cut between public and private?"
Andy said seriously: "Boss, please believe in my professionalism."
The three of them chatted for a while, and Qu Xiaoxiao suddenly came over.
"Andy, help!" Qu Xiaoxiao hugged Andy as soon as she arrived.
"What's wrong?" Andy asked confused.
"My dad invested all his wealth in Q Coffee!"
Wang Gang and Tan Zongming looked at each other and couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Your dad lost so much when investing in Wei Wei before, why do you still trust him?" Wang Gang asked in confusion.
"Wei Wei is such a good deceiver. After my father's divorce, his property shrank significantly and he was eager to make a comeback, but he ended up being tricked by Wei Wei." Qu Xiaoxiao said pitifully:
"Andy, Brother Bai, do you think Q Coffee can be saved?"
Wang Gang shook his head and said: "Give up your ambition! Ask your dad to divest his capital as soon as possible. Whatever can be saved is worth it."
Qu Xiaoxiao said with a bitter face: "I would have withdrawn my capital if I could. Wei Wei owes so much money, how can I pay back to my dad? His company has been ruined."
The situation of Q Coffee was more serious than Wang Gang expected. After the huge debt was exposed, many investors lost confidence and wanted to withdraw their capital.
But Wei Wei still had money in his hands. The successive failures of Red Star and Q Coffee had already made him notorious.
Wei Guoqiang was also affected to a certain extent. He previously endorsed Q Coffee, but now it was found out. Many people on the Internet questioned whether he, the economics professor, paid for it.
In July 2016, a large number of Q Coffee branches across the country closed down, and the equipment was sold off to pay off debts.
In August, Weiwei Company gathered a large number of employees to demand wages, and things became aroused.
In September, Wei Wei was summoned for making false accounts, further accelerating the collapse of Q Coffee.
In October, Q Coffee officially went bankrupt and liquidated, many investors lost their money, and Wei Wei was also filed for prosecution.
Wang Gang unexpectedly received a call from the detention center saying that Wei Wei wanted to see him.
Seeing Wei Wei again, Wang Gang found that he seemed to be more than ten years older, half of his hair was gray, and he had lost more than ten pounds.
The most important thing is that Wang Gang found that Wei Wei had injuries on his face. Maybe he was having a hard time in there.
"You want to see me?" Wang Gang sat opposite Wei Wei and said.
Wei Weila shrugged his head, raised his head slightly and said: "I want to know why I always lose. Before I met you, I had always had smooth sailing, but since I met you, I have become a loser in both love and career.
.”
Wang Gang was speechless and said: "Are you talking as if I have harmed you?"
"Isn't it? I don't believe that Q Coffee's debt problem was not exposed by you?" Wei Wei asked.
"Do you feel you have been wronged?" Wang Gang said:
"You are in this situation entirely because of yourself."
"Did I ask you to make false accounts?"
"Did I ask you to make money from Q Coffee?"
"Did I ask you to steal the Red Star acquisition?"
Each question left Wei Wei speechless.
"It's all your own fault that you're in this situation. If you were doing your business honestly, would you be able to pour Q coffee?" Wang Gang stood up and said to Wei Wei.
"I've seen people like you always force your faults on others."
Wang Gang left a message to Wei Wei and left the detention center directly.
"I will go out soon. I want to start over. I want to prove that I am no worse than you and Tan Zongming. I want to prove to Andy that she was wrong for not choosing me." Wei Wei stood up excitedly and roared.
Wang Gang shook his head and walked quickly instead of slow. He felt that coming to see Wei Wei today was a waste of time.
The collapse of Q Coffee had a huge chain reaction. He had many things to be busy with and had no time to waste on unimportant people.
After Wang Gang returned to Ruixin Coffee, he found Andy and asked her to contact the leaders of the administrative department and said that she could take over the equipment and employees of Q Coffee to solve the mess, but the condition was that the tax policy would be favorable.
At the same time, Wang Gang made the financial report of Ruixin Coffee public to give the public confidence and prepare for its future listing.
In January 2017, Ruixin Coffee was listed on Nasdaq. The stock price surged on the first day of listing, and its market value increased fifty-fold in less than a month.
Wang Gang's net worth has soared due to the surge in Ruixin Coffee.
Half a year later, Ruixin Coffee started the expansion mode again, adding a thousand more stores across the country and even opening stores across the ocean.
In October 2017, Qiu Yingying found out she was pregnant, and Guan Ju'er was also pregnant at the same time. The two sisters made a joke-like agreement that if there was a boy and a girl, they would become in-laws.
In the same month, Qu Xiaoxiao and Zhao Qiping held a wedding in Shanghai. Wang Gang and Qiu Yingying showed up together and left.
As the stock price of Ruixin Coffee is getting higher and higher, Wang Gang is the center of attention wherever he goes, and he does not want to steal the limelight from newcomers.
After Qu Xiaoxiao got married, she did not stay at home to support her husband and raise children. Instead, she founded a trading company. Her bankrupt Qu's father was hired by her as a consultant, and her half-brother Qu Lianjie served as a security guard.
In May 2018, Qiu Yingying gave birth to a daughter, whom Wang Gang named Bai Yue.
One and a half months later, Guan Ju'er also gave birth to a daughter.
When Fan Shengmei saw that the two children were very fond of each other, she and Andy competed to become godmothers.
Since Wang Baichuan joined Ruixin Coffee, he has been pursuing Fan Shengmei, and good things are close for the two of them.
After a period of recuperation, Fan's father was able to walk. Except for the weakness in his legs and feet, he was no different from a normal person.
Fan Shengmei's eldest brother is also very down-to-earth. He brought his wife and son back and is currently renting a house in his hometown.
In addition to urging Fan Shengmei to marry her all day long, Fan's mother no longer asked her for money.
After Andy and Tan Zongming got married, they were worried about the genetic inheritance of their disease, so they never had children and focused on taking care of their younger brother Xiao Ming.
Tan Zongming respected Andy's decision and adopted a little girl who was born with a disability.
In 2018, Fan Shengmei and Wang Baichuan got married. The wedding was not a big deal and they invited friends to have a meal. Wang Gang received a wedding candy.
Later, Qu Xiaoxiao also became pregnant, and she and Fan Shengmei went to the hospital to take care of her, and she was also a girl.
In this way, all the five beauties in Ode to Joy are daughters, which just continues the friendship between them.
After his daughter Bai Yue was born, Wang Gang handed over the management of Ruixin Coffee to professional managers and spent more time on his family.
Forty years later, the five beauties of Ode to Joy all retired and got together again, and it was time for Wang Gang to leave.
