Chapter 1001: Time
"Ahhh!"
Alice was thrown onto the cloak, and the familiar smell on the quilt made her body stiff, her face turned red and she was a little overwhelmed.
"What should I do... do you really need to..."
Seeing Meng Huo turning his back to her and starting to take off his coat, Alice couldn't help but feel a little angry. Why is this guy like a ok when he is worried? Could it be that he doesn't consider Chen Jie's feelings?
In terms of courage, Alice is not inferior to Meng Huo at all, but now it is not the time to show off her courage recklessly!
She quickly took out her cell phone from her pocket and asked Chen Jie for help.
"You give Meng Huo the phone." Chen Jie said to Alice, and Alice nervously handed the phone to Meng Huo - in fact, she had a vague hope that Chen Jie could not convince Meng Huo and asked him to continue to move tonight.
She could not take a step forward before reaching a consensus with Shen Jie, but Meng Huo's actions were not controlled by them. If he made a tough request tonight and Alice had already informed Chen Jie, then even if anything happened, Meng Huo's responsibility would be.
"If he has a tough attitude, I can't resist it..." Alice thought so. Although she had a bit of selfish thought, she believed that Chen Jie would definitely be the same as herself when encountering such an accident.
However, Meng Huo was not the kind of person who liked to force others after talking to Shen Jie for a few minutes, he chose to compromise.
"I'll give you another month." After the call, Meng Huo returned the phone to Alice and said, "Chen Jie has already said that she will give me an answer within a month. She will only have one month to negotiate with you."
This is also the bottom line for him not to take action tonight. Meng Huo doesn't want to delay it again and again. Alice and Shen Jie did not give him a deadline before, which made him quite passive. But now with a deadline of one month, the initiative is in Meng Huo's hands.
And after this deadline, Meng Huo also had reason to convince Li Qin that she would not be angry tomorrow.
"One month..." Alice frowned slightly: "Is this time a little hurry?"
Meng Huo shook his head, sat next to the chang, and said, "In addition, I have given you a long time for the past few months."
"What if there is no result within a month?" Alice asked curiously.
"Then I will decide, you have to follow my arrangements." Meng Huo raised his eyebrows and said, "Believe me, no matter what the conclusion is, you will reach the conclusion yourself better than the conclusion I have... You won't like my approach."
Alice did not ask Meng Huo what his method was. She could guess it, but that was indeed not a good idea.
"I get it." She sighed, then stood up and walked out.
Meng Huo grabbed her: "What are you doing?"
"Go to sleep outside?" Alice said. Meng has obtained a one-month deadline. She will definitely not make any moves tonight, so she won't have to stay here.
"Didn't you hear my mother say there is no quilt in the guest room? She would lie about such things. She must have planned it early in the morning - the sofa is not easy to sleep, so you just stay here." Meng Huo said. It's not the first time he slept with someone else, and it's not a problem to lie alone by his side.
But soon, Meng Huo regretted her words. Alice did not reject his proposal, but she did something that surprised Meng Huo before going to bed - taking off her clothes.
"I usually get used to sleeping like this at home..." She said this. Her hot body made Meng Huo feel more uncomfortable than sleeping with Chen Jie. He was tortured by both psychological and physiological whole night and could not fall asleep for an hour.
Until dawn, Meng Huo didn't know if Alice really had this habit or was deliberately teasing him.
Alice was sleeping smoothly. As soon as she woke up, Meng Huo had already left the room. She put on her clothes and walked out. From a distance, she heard Li Qin's doubtful voice: "Really? Can you take them off in a month? Aren't you lie to me?"
"Mom, when did I lied to you!"
"...Then I will believe you."
Li Qin seemed to have passed this level. Alice breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the conversation. She was really afraid that Li Qin would not let go of this matter.
After breakfast at home, Meng Huo said goodbye to Li Qin and then got into Alice's car. Alice delayed her work time in order to take him to the train station.
"Do you go directly to the station?" Alice asked while driving, "Do you want to buy something on the road?"
"No need, wait..." Meng Huo looked at his phone and suddenly saw a message and said, "I won't go to the station for the time being. You can take me to the Jiahao Hotel. I want to receive a guest."
He said that, and then dialed it out with his cell phone- "You are so well-informed. I came back last night." "Now I have time." "See you in Jiahao later."
Alice didn't hear Meng Huo's name to the other party, but just heard some of the key points he said, and couldn't help but become curious: "Who is it?"
"..." Meng Huo put down his cell phone, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Dong Ding, he got the news of my return. He sent a message in the morning to ask me if I had time to meet today, and I agreed."
Dong Ding-Alice's eyes widened when she heard this name.
"What does the president of Zhongxia Company ask you for?"
And it seems that it is very important, otherwise Meng Huo would not have changed his itinerary temporarily. But he bought the high-speed rail ticket yesterday. The departure time was forty minutes, and there was no time to meet the guests at all.
"Is it related to the company's business?" Alice asked.
Meng Huo shook his head: "It doesn't matter much, but it can't be said that it doesn't matter at all. This is my private matter with him."
"Is it..." Alice remembered: "Is that thing in the past?"
She remembered a very important thing, and not many people knew about it, only a few. The main insiders were Meng Huo and Xu Jing, and Dong Ding, and Alice also got a lot of information from Xu Jing.
"Did you bet on the three rules of Zhongxia Future with Dong Ding?" Alice asked.
Meng Huo nodded. If it were half a year ago, he might have concealed some of the content. But now that Alice is already his girlfriend, Meng Huo naturally doesn't need to hide it: "Dong Ding and I agreed that if Phoenix can suppress Zhongxia, three years later...that is, next year, he and I can join forces to acquire Zhongxia Company."
"Join together?"
"Yes, join forces." Meng Huo nodded. Zhongxia Company was naturally not something that anyone could acquire. Even if Meng Huo bet on all the assets, it would be difficult to deal with Zhongxia's shareholders.
In fact, the agreement between Meng Huo and Dong Ding left time for Dong Ding. Zhongxia Company's shareholder structure is complex. Dong Ding hopes that Meng Huo can allow him to slowly enhance his equity within the company. When he has the best voice, Meng Huo's acquisition will become much easier.
"He wants to be the same as my father?" Alice understood as soon as she heard it. Dong Ding hoped to have the same status as Xu Jing of Phoenix Company and maintain the right to speak among Zhongxia Company under one person.
Once Phoenix and Zhongxia join forces, the Chinese animation industry will enter a long monopoly period. In addition to He Xi, the biggest profits will be Xu Jing and Dong Ding.
Because of this, Dong Ding left himself three years. In fact, he knew from the beginning that Zhongxia had a slim chance of winning, and never expected to turn defeat into victory. Dong Ding was just serving himself - Zhongxia was suppressed by Phoenix, so he had the opportunity to take over the share of other shareholders.
"He is indeed an ambitious person at heart..." Alice sighed.
"But he is very capable." Meng Huo laughed. It was not easy to realize Dong Ding's ambitions. When he agreed with Meng Huo, his position in Zhongxia Company was actually just a puppet of shareholders. If he had no performance, he could be banned at any time.
Therefore, Dong Ding has two prerequisites to realize his ambitions. One is to ensure the performance of Zhongxia Company, and to satisfy the shareholders, but also feel that no one can do better than him, so naturally he will not ban him. The other is to hide his ambitions. Once someone knows that his real purpose is the shares of Zhongxia Company, or knows his agreement with Meng Huo, the shareholders will not let go easily.
"He is very powerful, and most people can't do his level."
Meng Huo praised that he had also inquired about internal news about Zhongxia Company and found that some shareholders have indeed been taking over in the past two years. Dong Ding took over their shares one by one, which not only did not arouse the suspicion of other shareholders, but instead created an image of a president who dared to act and was dedicated to Zhongxia.
He didn't know what trick Dong Ding used, but the shareholders who left were happy to give the shares to Dong Ding, and many people even regarded him as a takeover.
"Dong Ding has always been regarded as the best professional manager in China, and his ability is of course not a problem." Alice said. Dong Ding's ability and connections are trained by rich experience. There are not many professional managers in China who are better than him.
"Who is better than him?" Meng Huo asked.
"I can't compare to him now. I rely on myself alone. I will have the opportunity to reach his level twenty years later. Maybe it will take longer." Alice glanced at Meng Huo: "But with you by my side, this time will be shortened to ten years."
Ten years, this is also a conservative saying. With Meng Huo's current speed of progress, he will be a very amazing person six or seven years later, and Alice, who is by his side, will naturally be pushed to a similar height - and this cannot be decided by her.
The stronger the Phoenix Company, the more important the people Alice contacts and deals with. Not only her, but everyone in Phoenix Company is the same. A few years ago, their eyes were all focused on comics, and they could only focus on comics. Now, animations, movies, games - countless related companies and businessmen came to them on their own initiative.
When the company was weak, Alice had to find contacts one by one, but now, the people she looked up to in the past came one by one. She believed that in a few years, the object she looked up to would come over today. It is precisely because of this that within ten years, Alice would be sure to surpass Dong Ding.
Of course, there is also a premise here that Dong Ding has no noble people to help. Unfortunately, Alice has seen a noble person now. The young cartoonist sitting next to her is obviously helping Dong Ding realize his ambitions.
"Why do you need to help Dong Ding?" Alice asked. Phoenix Company has gained the upper hand in the past two years, but they have not had a heavy blow to Zhongxia, and they will even cooperate with them - Alice thinks Meng Huo is showing mercy under his command.
He has many powerful cards. One of them, for example, as soon as "One Piece" is released, Phoenix will immediately soar, while Zhongxia will be distanced from it, and all businesses and influence will continue to decline.
The reason why Meng Huo didn't do this was obviously giving Zhongxia Company - to be more accurate, he gave Dong Ding time and opportunity.
"Even if there is no agreement, as long as you knock Zhongxia Company over, it will not be difficult to acquire it, right?"
Alice believes that as long as Phoenix Company has an absolute advantage, once Meng Huo sells out the acquisition information, the shareholders of Zhongxia Company will immediately surge and each splits some shares and hand them over to Meng Huo, thereby realizing the alliance between Phoenix and Zhongxia.
As long as Phoenix and Zhongxia succeed in joining forces, this new company will be a monopoly group - it is a good thing for all shareholders, and no shareholder of Zhongxia company will refuse such a pie.
So no matter whether Meng Huo and Dong Ding have an agreement, they are actually the same for Meng Huo. He is strong enough to be strong enough to Zhongxia Company in the future and must integrate into him to obtain the best interests. Otherwise, once the fall is over, he will be completely suppressed by Phoenix.
Since that's the case, why is Meng Huo merciless? He can now be in a big army and force Zhongxia to surrender as soon as possible - but he delays again and again, with the purpose of giving Dong Ding time. Alice thought, maybe Meng Huo chose to travel this year to make Zhongxia company breathe and not be pulled too far by Phoenix company.
He gave Dong Ding too much time, so much that Alice felt whether the two of them had any special relationship.
"Don't think too much..." Meng Huo saw through Alice's thoughts and smiled: "I just don't want Zhongxia, who has too many shareholders."
He did give Dong Ding time. One of the reasons is that Dong Ding is very powerful, and the other is even simpler- Meng Huo doesn't want to divide the shares too much. If possible, it would be best if there is only one Dong Ding left in Zhongxia Company.
The share structure of Phoenix Company is very simple, while the share structure of Zhongxia Company is very complicated. However, Meng Huo does not have the idea of knowing dozens of shareholders, and he does not want to see some people like Li Tianhui appear in the future.
"And I didn't give him a lot of time either."
Meng Huo added that he did not give Dong Ding a long time. It was last year when Phoenix Company surpassed Zhongxia. They developed too fast and needed to slowly absorb and strengthen their foundation, so they were not suitable to continue to rush.
Next year is the time when the agreement with Dong Ding expires. Meng Huo will start to take heavy measures in the first half of the year of the agreement to completely suppress Zhongxia Company.
