Chapter 638 Annual Meeting and Sale of Assets for Cash

Marilyn, Huixin's youngest daughter, Ye Hongdou, the youngest princess of the Ye family, is actually not sick.

Ye Luo started the Ye Pharmaceutical Company a few years ago. Now the company has branches all over the Republic of China. It is easy to deceive the principal in this regard.

The meeting before the principal stepped down was a discussion meeting of his own core faction.

Ye Luo did not want to label himself and the Ye family as Jiang family. If so, in ten or twenty years, he would have no choice but to escape to Formosa.

As we all know, after the death of the principal, the power of the Jiang family in Formosa was getting weaker and weaker. In the end, few families of those who followed him to Formosa could flourish after the millennium.

Ye Luo did not know how long he could live in this life, but he knew that if he was tied to the principal's ship, the Ye family would most likely disappear into the dust in a few decades.

With his current financial resources and the current power of the Ye family investment, he could completely imitate those century-old families in the West and slowly run a wealthy family that would never collapse around the world.

Why should we stick to a small place like a city or a pond?

Therefore, he decisively took Ye Hongdou and Huixin to Beiping for a tour.

He said he was going to treat his daughter, but in fact he visited Lin Huiyin who was about to give birth, and went to Tianjin City to tell Chen Youde to continue to fight the Japanese invaders openly and secretly.

Don't let these bastards live a good life just because Zhang Xueming left.

After the principal really stepped down and took his family to his hometown in Xikou, Ye Luo returned to Shanghai with his wife and daughter.

At the end of December, Fan Shaozeng brought people and money to Shanghai to pay his respects, thinking about making a living with the second young master.

After the two Lius' dispute over Sichuan was over, he would go back to continue to be his own teacher.

Little did he know that this time he came to Shanghai, by chance, he encountered a major event that shocked China and the world.

New Year's Day in 1932.

As the chairman and general manager of Ye's Investment, Ye Luo held the first annual meeting of Ye's Investment Shanghai Branch.

The concept of company annual meetings was introduced from the West, and domestic enterprises were not popular at that time.

Although most of their bosses are highly Westernized compradors and warlords, they do not treat workers as human beings and do not even provide welfare, let alone the annual celebration.

All the Ye Investment staff working in Shanghai, with a total number of tens of thousands, filled up the Paramount and other Ye Investment's dance halls.

The main venue of the annual meeting was held in the Paramount Ballroom, and the Mingyue Song and Dance Troupe and the Queen of Songs Wang Ji were invited to help. Many senior executives of the company also attended other branch venues.

A radio produced by the latest Ye Electronics Factory was placed on each table in the branch venue.

These employees who could not go to the Paramount could also listen to Ye Luo's speech simultaneously through the Asian American Radio Station.

That is, Ye Investment, which is engaged in radio and broadcasting at the same time, can do this.

The unique annual meeting celebration scene was recorded by many invited newspaper reporters with various equipment. These photos and videos will become priceless treasures in the future!

Ye Luo held the annual meeting for several purposes.

It can not only make the employees of Ye's Investment more cohesive, but also quietly convey some hints.

On the night of the annual meeting, Ye Luo informed all employees that Ye's Investment has spread all over the southern part of the Republic of China. Although the north withdrew its investment due to the war, the industry has been successfully transferred to Qing City. If employees from the north want to go back to work, they can apply to go to the branch in Qing City.

As of December 1931, the total amount of Ye's Investment in the Republic of China was as high as 3.2 billion oceans, while when it was first established in March 1928, it was only 50,000 oceans.

In less than four years, Ye Luo brought Ye's Investment to its peak by his own efforts and became the well-deserved first business empire in the Republic of China!

For various reasons, Ye Luo could not explain his overseas industries, so when facing Lu Yusheng's "rise of giant businessmen" that year, it seemed to be a relatively distant goal at this time.

Even if all overseas industries were displayed, the total amount was about 5 billion US dollars, which was not yet the bottom line in Ye Luo's mind-20 billion US dollars.

Therefore, he still had an expression of heavy responsibility and a long way to go.

Amidst the thunderous applause, Ye Luo naturally maintained his usual style. At a time when the domestic situation was severe and the Japanese invaders invaded the north, he once again increased the wages and benefits of all Ye Investment employees.

Ye Investment also became the only super company in the Republic of China and even the world that was still thriving in 1932.

The United States was still in the Great Depression at this time, and the economic crisis it swept across the world affected many countries.

If Ye Luo had not bought silver, the Republic of China would have been in mourning.

Last year, he also paid for water conservancy repairs, disaster relief many times, and imported relief food from overseas.

After talking about these things, Ye Luo naturally talked about Ye Investment's plans for the next five to ten years.

Because a cooperation agreement had been reached with the Livermore Group before, it didn't sound so outrageous when Ye Luo mentioned that he wanted to transfer the industry to central regions such as Qing City, as well as overseas regions such as Europe and the United States.

The north was mired in war, and those merchants who had gone there to pick up bargains almost couldn't come back. Ye Luo's withdrawal, which was originally ridiculed by everyone, has now been regarded as a classic.

The south has long been the base camp of Ye's investment.

As long as the principal is not completely finished, no one can really move Ye's investment.

Even if the principal is gone, as long as the huge unified regime does not appear, any new ruler will always consider the problem of Ye's investment infiltration in the south and have to have an equal dialogue with Ye Luo.

Then his development direction is indeed only overseas.

Ye Luo said frankly that he would vigorously develop overseas trade this year, so it is necessary to build up Ye's investment's own sea, land and air transportation.

The unknown Tianjin City Port Industry was revealed by the way, and the shadow of Chen Youde gradually stood in the foreground.

Another major change in Ye's investment is in Shanghai.

Previously, due to the Huade military cooperation project, Ye's investment had a large number of industrial parks and military research bases in Zhabei area.

But the first head of the military advisory group, Max, passed away, and the second head who succeeded him decided to cooperate deeply with the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, gradually stripping Ye Luo of his position in the cooperation project-

Although he himself was supported by Ye Luo and Max, he did not choose to give in when it came to core interests.

This sounds a bit frustrating.

But now the principal has also stepped down, and the Minister of Military and Political Affairs has been replaced by Wang's direct line, who is even more happy to pick peaches.

Ye Luo stated that Ye's Investment will officially withdraw from the cooperation, and those industrial parks will be sold to the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs at a package price, and the core technology and personnel will either return to the advisory group or follow Ye's Investment to Jiacheng to become part of the Tax Police Corps.

The suburbs of Shanghai, mainly Zhabei, also left many memories for Hengsan and others.

When they first came here, there were ordinary people who could not eat, but they gradually became lively because of Ye's Industrial Park.

In more than two years, these people have become rich.

But now, they have become victims of the party-government struggle and are forced to leave their hometown.

It is impossible to say that they have no resentment.

But what can they do?

Ye Luo promised to use the money from the sale of these industrial parks to rebuild parks near Jiacheng and develop overseas. As long as these local employees are willing, they can leave with them.

As soon as this incident happened, the Republic of China caused quite a stir.

Everyone knows that the second young master spent a lot of money on industry. Now, the industry is not well developed, and others have reaped the benefits. It is really a pity.

Many people stood up for Ye Luo, and even the principal who had just stepped down also gained some good reputation.

He was always involved in factional struggles, but he was never vague about supporting Ye Luo.

Some people even said that if the principal had not stepped down, perhaps this incident would not have happened.

In any case, Ye Luo was determined to sell those industries.

He didn't feel bad.

As long as the resources, personnel and technology were still there, it was just a matter of moving to another place to continue production.

But Zhabei really couldn't stay any longer.

Because the January 28 Incident was coming soon!

When that time came, the Japanese invaders attacked Zhabei crazily, and under the hail of bullets, the most unlucky were the houses and shops.

He didn't want to suffer this loss.

However, Zhabei was attacked, while Nanshi, which was also full of Ye's investment in industrial industries, was safe and sound.

This is also a point of confusion for many people now.

Since even the industries in Zhabei have been abandoned, why keep those in Nanshi? (End of this chapter)
