Chapter 1218: Withdrawal of Shares

One million is not a big number for the director of the Finance Department of Dengfeng Steel. Zhang Xiaobai felt relieved when he heard this number. Even if he was narrow-minded, he would be depressed for a while at most, and nothing serious would happen.

As the housewarming was getting closer, Zhang Xiaobai went to the Brothers Mountain base camp and then really moved.

Everything was ready, just waiting for the old friend to come.

Unexpectedly, the old friend did come, but it was not the one I was waiting for.

Yin Yue and Judy seemed to have heard the news and came to Tangcheng.

Zhang Xiaobai went to pick them up in person, and after pulling the two beauties, he felt something was wrong. They didn't look very good.

Obviously they didn't come for the base camp.

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Although they are beautiful, they are not so beautiful with a bitter face."

Yin Yue sighed slightly, and Judy smiled bitterly and said, "It doesn't matter whether it is beautiful or not!"

A woman who doesn't care about her appearance must have something big going on.

Zhang Xiaobai restrained his smile and said seriously: "What happened?"

Judy said: "Let's find a hotel and chat while drinking."

Zhang Xiaobai frowned, turned on the turn signal and went straight to the Banquet House.

She meant to chat while drinking. People often want to drink when they are unhappy and drink to relieve their sorrow.

Just after four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xiaobai called the owner of the Banquet House and asked the chef to go to work early to cook a meal.

For the owner of the Banquet House, Zhang Xiaobai is like the God of Wealth. The annual entertainment expenses of Dengfeng Steel and Baibaoxiang Technology are both very large figures.

The boss personally entertained, and after serving the wine and food, he smiled and said: "Boss Zhang, this meal is mine, you must give me this opportunity!"

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said: "Okay, Boss Zhao still owes me a meal!"

That time he said he would treat Zhang Xiaobai, but Wang Dalin paid the bill, so he owed him a meal, didn't he?

Boss Zhao smiled and said yes repeatedly, then said "Enjoy your meal" and retreated, without daring to stay in the faces of the two ladies.

Zhang Xiaobai poured two glasses of wine, but unexpectedly Yin Yue also moved her glass forward and poured a glass.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaobai looked solemn, it seemed that today's matter was really big.

The three of them clinked their glasses, Zhang Xiaobai drank a quarter, Yin Yue drank a quarter, and Judy drank half.

Putting down the glass, Zhang Xiaobai asked: "Tell me, what happened?"

Yin Yue sighed again, Judy lit a cigarette and said: "Do you know about the financial crisis?"

Zhang Xiaobai nodded and said: "I know, the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States has affected many countries, and our country has also received a lot of impact this year."

Before, I only watched the news and TV and knew about the financial crisis, but I haven't experienced it personally. At least it has little impact on Dengfeng Steel Treasure Box Technology and Su's Electric Appliances.

Judy slowly took a puff of cigarette, "Both of our families started in the United States, including the focus of our current business is also there..."

Judy didn't say anything more, it was enough to say this. Pick up the wine glass and drink the remaining half of the glass in one gulp.

Zhang Xiaobai understood it immediately. He knew the identities of these two rich ladies before. With a sigh, Zhang Xiaobai accompanied Judy to finish the glass of wine, and then filled two more glasses.

"Is it serious?" Zhang Xiaobai asked.

Judy laughed at herself and just smoked without answering.

Yin Yue finally spoke, "It's so serious that it's almost bankrupt!"

Zhang Xiaobai was shocked and speechless. This was the first time he experienced the impact of the financial crisis. Tian Ye said that Judy and Yin Yue's families were quite powerful in the United States. The company that had been working for so many years was going to go bankrupt?

Judy said: "Don't be surprised. The business world has always been like this. You can become a god overnight, and you can also go bankrupt overnight."

Zhang Xiaobai asked: "What can I do for you?"

After working together for a few years, many things have happened. Zhang Xiaobai knows and trusts them very well. They are not just partners, but friends.

Especially Yin Yue. Zhang Xiaobai once told her about Tian Ye. He felt closer to her and admired this girl very much.

When friends are in trouble, you should help them if you can. This is Zhang Xiaobai's principle in life.

Judy put out her cigarette, looked at Yin Yue, and raised their glasses to Zhang Xiaobai at the same time.

All three of them toasted.

Zhang Xiaobai already understood what was going on. These two people came to ask for help.

"What do you need me to do?" Zhang Xiaobai asked.

Judy said, "Xiaobai, I wanted to drink three glasses before I could say this. Since you can see it, let's just say it directly."

Yin Yue said, "We want to withdraw our shares!"

Yin Yue and Judy are shareholders of Treasure Box Technology. At the beginning, each of them invested two million and owned 10% of the shares.

Now the financial crisis has spread to China. Although Wulin Games is still popular, it is not as popular as before. Treasure Box Technology is developing new games.

Both of them are aware of these situations, so it is really unfair to withdraw their shares at this time.

This is why it is difficult to talk about.

Zhang Xiaobai lit a cigarette and seemed to be thinking.

Yin Yue and Judy showed guilty looks.

Yin Yue said: "We really won't do this unless it's absolutely necessary. I hope you can understand."

Judy said: "To be honest, we really don't want to withdraw our shares, because we know that Treasure Box Technology will be more valuable in the future!"

After spending a few years together, the two of them have great confidence in Zhang Xiaobai's ability and the future of Treasure Box Technology. The financial crisis will eventually pass, but once you withdraw your shares, it will be impossible to come back.

Zhang Xiaobai took out his cell phone from the table and dialed a number.

"If you don't get there in time, come to the banquet hall immediately!"

Twenty minutes later, Xue Zi pushed the door open. Zhang Xiaobai and Judy had already drunk three cups, and even Yin Yue, who was not very good at drinking, drank two cups.

Looking at the empty bottle, Xue Zi frowned and said, "Three CEOs, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Sit down and eat something first!"

Xue Zi sat next to Zhang Xiaobai and looked at the three people carefully. Zhang Xiaobai was fine, but the other two felt very bad.

Xue Zi smiled bitterly and said, "I can't eat a single bite. Tell me what's going on?"

Zhang Xiaobai said, "Boss Zhu and Boss Yin's family business has problems and they are in urgent need of money, so they want to withdraw their shares."

"But..."

Xue Zi only said one word and didn't say anything else. She was against it. She knew the situation of Treasure Box Technology best, better than anyone else. If they were asked to withdraw their shares now, it would be equivalent to cutting off the cash flow of Treasure Box Technology, which would have a great impact on the projects currently being developed.

But she immediately understood that although she was the general manager of Baibaoxiang Technology, she had no right to refute.

This matter still depends on Brother Bai's attitude.

Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "It's been a pleasant cooperation for so long. Don't let it become unpleasant in the end. Who hasn't had bad luck? As a friend, help if you can!"

Xue Zi nodded and said yes.
