Chapter 223 Secret War
A typical modern case.
A certain woman fell in love with a certain man and took the initiative to woo her on a dark and stormy night. However, the man had his own heart and declined the woman with amazing perseverance.
As a result, the woman became hateful because of love. She tore her clothes on the spot and shouted for help.
The ending is that the man lost his job, went to jail, was spurned by his relatives and friends, and looked down upon by the world.
His favorite girlfriend even abandoned him. After he came out, he was alone and died in depression. It can be said that his whole life changed because of this...
There is a Latin legal proverb: All laws have loopholes.
When women are in a weak position, both public opinion and law enforcement agencies will have a certain tendency. This is to protect the rights and interests of vulnerable groups, which is understandable.
However, such a tendency is undoubtedly unfair to the other party, and it also leaves loopholes that can be exploited by those who are interested.
So, the law is never absolutely fair.
The so-called fairness is always relative.
In a period when criminal investigation methods were not perfect, it was almost impossible to defend against such false accusations.
Even in modern society with increasingly sophisticated criminal investigation methods, we dare not say that the scene can be restored 100%. The protracted investigation and litigation process will soon discredit the so-called "powerful groups".
For public figures, once their reputation is damaged, their comings and goings will be viewed with colored glasses. Under this invisible psychological pressure, their career ambitions are destined to be hit.
So, going against a woman’s will will really cause big problems!
"Huh?"
When the woman came out of the bathroom, what she saw was not the person she expected, but his secretary. The smile on her face immediately froze.
I just took a shower, why did the person change?
"Oh, Miss Liu, I'm very sorry. The boss had urgent business and left first. He was worried that Miss Liu would misunderstand, so he asked me to stay and explain."
The female secretary had a smile on her face. Wearing a professional smile, the woman wearing only a bath towel in front of him also looked normal.
Gone? !
After the shock on the woman's face, a trace of anger suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she felt a nameless anger rising straight into the sky.
I've already taken a shower, you told me to leave first?
This is not the key. The key is that others are gone. What will happen to my task tonight?
If he hadn't been here now, she would definitely have let that guy know what it means to drink a toast instead of a fine drink!
Just when her eyes flickered and she was weighing whether to settle for the next best thing...
"Miss Liu, before leaving, the boss also asked you to have dinner with you tomorrow night, specifically to express his apology. I hope Miss Liu can appreciate it," the female secretary added.
The woman's anger immediately calmed down, and she felt relieved.
I’ll just say it!
The fish has already bitten the hook and can it still run away?
"Please tell me that I will definitely be there tomorrow night."
"Okay, then I'll say goodbye!"
......
"Bang!" The car door was closed. .
"Is the matter done?" The man sat in the back seat and turned to look at the secretary who came back.
"Yes, boss, Miss Liu has promised to make an appointment tomorrow night."
"Well..." His expression softened slightly.
It seems that people should have calmed down first...
Just sitting in the car, he calmed down and carefully analyzed the ins and outs of tonight, and his back was suddenly shocked. Covered in cold sweat.
The reason why he was able to escape unscathed this time was because of Meng Lang's magical "accurate prophecy" that inspired him.
But more importantly, his trip to the ocean was not an easy trip.
The paralysis of alcohol made him forget for a moment that he was still in the enemy's lair, surrounded by enemies and surrounded by dangers!
Outsiders may not know it, but people in the industry can more or less feel that the relationship between his company and Wall Street capital is at a very delicate stage at this time.
In the early days, it relied on Wall Street capital for development and financing. Except for Penguin’s later participation, several major shareholders in the company are from Wall Street capital.
However, the shareholding report shows that the market value of the stocks held by the former major shareholder Linggao Capital has plummeted from approximately US$1.4 billion in the first quarter to approximately US$700 million.
The shareholding ratio has also dropped from 11.32% when it was listed in 2014 to 1.47% today, and it has long withdrawn from the ranks of major shareholders.
Suffering from a large-scale reduction of holdings by the most important strategic shareholder, the company's market value has evaporated by more than US$26 billion this year.
This is just the tip of the iceberg emerging in the capital market.
As early as half a year ago, Wall Street had already begun a secret short-selling layout, which led to the recent sharp decline in market value.
And the cause of all this is, in the final analysis, a struggle for interests.
There was a famous case in China before. Jack Ma's Alibaba Mama was controlled by international capitals such as SoftBank and Sequoia. Jack Ma was unwilling to accept it, so he started a new business and carried out a series of asset transfers, creating Zhifu Bao.
This move made the stockholders itchy, but there was nothing they could do.
The lessons of those who have gone before are the lessons of those who follow!
Brother Dong, who is ambitious and ambitious, is naturally not willing to be controlled by others.
As we all know, Jingdong is a company listed on NASDAQ in the United States, with a market value of up to 450 billion, with hundreds of thousands of employees, and is also deployed in the three major sectors of e-commerce, finance and logistics.
And, contrary to popularity, finance and logistics contribute more wealth to the company than e-commerce.
In 2013, Brother Dong established a financial group. In order to prevent the equity from being cleared, in 2017, the financial group conducted another equity restructuring.
As for the logistics sector, one of the three carriages, it has never established a company and opened it to the outside world, but is running as an independent business unit.
In 2007, it built its own logistics, and only announced the establishment of a logistics group in 2017. It took ten years to establish the company. This can be seen in its deep defense against Wall Street capital.
The substantial reduction of Wall Street capital’s holdings is not unrelated to Brother Dong’s series of actions.
Nowadays, the international situation is changing rapidly, and the struggle for interests between the two sides is suddenly mixed with a suddenly fierce competition between great powers...
In view of the sudden tension in the relationship between the two sides, his trip abroad this time is ostensibly Participating in further education for entrepreneurs actually has the purpose of trying to reach a limited consensus with Wall Street and ease the relationship between the two parties.
However, in the past few days, the two sides have not only failed to reach an agreement on certain key interests, but have shown signs of intensifying the rift.
He has vaguely realized that this commercial war will inevitably escalate further in the future...
At this critical juncture, he is still taking it lightly on the enemy's home court!
Even if what Meng Lang said was nothing more than alarmist talk, he still had to thank the other party for allowing him to avoid possible terrible risks.
It is not so much that he was persuaded by the "weird power and chaotic gods", but that he himself was vaguely aware of the danger approaching...
"Boss, I need to make a reservation for the restaurant in advance for tomorrow night. "?" The female secretary smiled teasingly.
He rolled his eyes helplessly.
This dinner is probably destined to be a long time coming...
...
“There is probably no one who can eat the boss’s melon at such a close distance, right?”
Meng Lang put down his phone, vaguely feeling that he might have quietly changed history again. trajectory.
Brother Dong is a well-deserved global predator. The market value of a company under his command even exceeds the national GDP of many small countries. He is a man who leads the world.
When such an influential boss goes abroad, he will even have Zhongnanhai bodyguards around him, and relevant departments will also send people to follow him closely.
For example, Yanzi, a female agent from the former Soviet Union, used her beauty to seduce many people.
In fact, various spy organizations will use honey traps.
The security work of domestic business giants like this has always been the top priority of the relevant departments. Once something happens, it will affect the development of the domestic economy.
And how an ordinary college student bypassed the heavy security and hit seven inches so quickly and accurately, and how the subsequent impact of this incident quickly fermented...
There are already doubts here. Heavy.
This requires someone to cooperate with the drinking, someone to cooperate with the cover, and someone to cooperate with domestic and foreign propaganda to guide public opinion...
However, the secret wars in this world are obviously not something that Meng Lang currently has access to.
At least his thoughts at this time are quite simple and unpretentious...
"Sure enough, boys must protect themselves when they go out..." (End of Chapter)
