Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 1090 Successors

After a night of hard work, the spy satellite divided into four parts was finally brought up. Then the four nuclear submarines left, and the four large trucks parked in Lu Shaohua's villa also came to the beach, loaded with spy satellites, and escorted to the Jiuquan Launch Center by a special battalion of 450 people.

This time, not only a spy satellite came over, but also a rocket and twenty rocket experts. They came here with the nuclear submarine and are now ashore. The spy satellite has been transported away, and the rocket has been disassembled into two parts. But there is no need to worry about having no place to load them, just find two container trucks.

The spy satellite had been transported away, and only the rocket was left. That was no longer important. Lu Shaohua did not stay at the beach, but took the twenty rocket experts to his villa and ordered the kitchen to prepare some food to entertain the twenty experts. Lu Shaohua himself also had some midnight snack, and then everyone went back to their own places and went to bed.

Since the launch of the spy satellite was scheduled for three days later, the twenty rocket experts who followed were destined not to have many days of rest. On the next day, they boarded Lu Shaohua's private plane to Jiangxi.

Lu Shaohua also went with them, but he did not get off the plane in Jiangxi. Instead, after the twenty experts got off the plane, Lu Shaohua took off again and flew to Beijing.

The spy satellite, rocket, and personnel have all arrived and have been accepted by the military. The deal is now considered complete. Naturally, Lu Shaohua has to go meet the No. 1 leader. In addition to formally ending the deal, Lu Shaohua is going to ask the No. 1 leader for money.

It has to be said that Lu Shaohua is a poor man now. Phoenix Group does not have much working capital, and the Tiger Roar Base is unable to provide funds for use here. If any accident happens during this period, Lu Shaohua really cannot withdraw funds to deal with the situation.

With money in your pocket, you will feel more confident!

This is what Lu Shaohua thought, so, Lu Shaohua was eager to get the 800 billion US dollars from the No. 1 leader as soon as possible, so that he could be more confident.

It seemed that the No. 1 leader had understood Lu Shaohua's intention. When he saw Lu Shaohua, he just smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have already given the order. The money will be transferred immediately. I think it won't take too long for you to receive the report."

It seemed as if the No. 1 leader had calculated the time precisely. Not long after he finished speaking, Lu Shaohua received a call from the head of Phoenix Bank, claiming that a sum of 800 billion US dollars had been deposited into the special account used by Lu Shaohua.

The money had been transferred, so what else did Lu Shaohua have to say? He just smiled at the No. 1 leader and nodded to indicate that the money had been received. As for other things, he said nothing.

At this point, the deal was finally completed, and Lu Shaohua breathed a sigh of relief. The reason for his relief was not for anything else, but because Lu Shaohua had fulfilled his promise to Mr. Deng.

At that time, when Deng was still alive, Lu Shaohua had promised Deng that he would help the country improve its military strength. Now with the spy satellites and space weapons technology obtained, the country can improve its military strength to a higher level in a short period of time.

Of course, it is impossible to achieve a comprehensive improvement relying solely on two weapons. More technologies are needed. However, so far, these are the two extreme technologies that Lu Shaohua can come up with. As for other technologies, although Lu Shaohua has advanced ones, the country's ones are not very bad either. There is no problem at all in making do with them.

So, at this moment, Lu Shaohua has fulfilled his promise to Mr. Deng. As for the future, Lu Shaohua has really not thought about it.

Maybe, maybe Lu Shaohua will come up with even more extreme technologies in the future, but one thing is certain, it won’t be so fast, maybe it will be ten years later, or maybe it will be twenty years later. How long will it take, Lu Shaohua cannot give a definite answer.

……

Lu Shaohua stayed in Beijing for a day and watched a badminton match with Lu Xiao. That evening, he left Beijing and rushed back to Hong Kong.

After rushing back to Hong Kong, Lu Shaohua once again inspected all subsidiaries of Phoenix Group. This inspection could be said to be the last inspection, the last one before the financial crisis came.

Yes, Lu Shaohua is still not confident about the defense capabilities. Originally, there was no need to inspect it again. After all, Lu Shaohua had already inspected it before. However, since this financial crisis is unusual, Lu Shaohua is also a little worried.

Perhaps it was due to time reasons. There was still some time before the full outbreak of the financial crisis, so Lu Shaohua was extremely careful when inspecting all subsidiaries. He would inspect each subsidiary, no matter how big or small, at least four days in advance. For example, it took Lu Shaohua ten full days to inspect Phoenix Sales.

There is no way. Phoenix Sales Company is the largest subsidiary of Phoenix Group. Lu Shaohua cannot help but be careful. What's more, Phoenix Sales Company is the external window of Phoenix Group in the industrial sector. There are many complicated things inside. It is normal for Lu Shaohua to spend some time.

It took Lu Shaohua twenty-five days to visit all the subsidiaries. Any problems were solved immediately, and if there were no problems, he encouraged the senior management and asked them to make all preparations.

By the time Lu Shaohua finished inspecting all the subsidiaries, it was already September 7th. On that day, Lu Shaohua had a good rest. In the evening, Lu Shaohua summoned Liu Mingzhang, Li Yunqing, Li Zongen and Lin Yi to his home.

There is no need to say much about Liu Mingzhang and others. They are the three giants of Phoenix Financial. Although Lin Yi cannot be considered a giant now, since Li Yunqing and Liu Mingzhang were not in the financial crisis, he is in charge of the business of Phoenix Financial.

The financial crisis will undoubtedly have a great impact on Hong Kong, so the person in charge of Phoenix Financial, a company that has many businesses in Hong Kong, has some things he needs to listen to.

Look, Lu Shaohua also regards Phoenix Financial as the primary topic. After all, Phoenix Financial is the leader of Phoenix Group, and Hong Kong is the base camp of Phoenix Group. If the base camp is ruined, how can Phoenix Group have the face to call the shots in the financial world?

"The financial storm has already swept in. I believe you have all felt it. As one of the world's international financial markets, it is inevitable that Hong Kong will be affected." Lu Shaohua's opening remarks were very plain and without any nutrition, but what he said was the truth, which was undeniable. Fortunately, Lu Shaohua did not just talk nonsense. He changed the subject and said to Lin Yi. "Lin Yi, you control the main business of Phoenix Financial, so you can say a few words."

"Well, let me say a few words." Lin Yi nodded, and after a few seconds, he continued. "Before that, the company had made sufficient preparations to resist. One of them was to quietly sell the stocks of companies that had little to do with our group, in order to prevent the financial storm from involving part of our funds."

"Some companies related to our group are members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. We have strengthened our original holdings and prepared some funds so that we can provide support in case the stock price falls." Lin Yi talked freely.

This was a decision made by Lin Yi himself. Neither Lu Shaohua, Li Yunqing, nor Liu Mingzhang interfered. In fact, this was also the previous strategy. It can be said that it was the same old thing, and nothing had changed.

In 97, when the Asian financial crisis occurred, Lu Shaohua made such a decision. At that time, Lin Yi had already joined Phoenix Financial and participated in the actions to resist the Asian financial crisis. It can be said that he had a deep understanding of decision-making.

This time, Lu Shaohua gave them full authority to make decisions, so he naturally had to learn from the experience of the last decision. Of course, Lin Yi did not follow the previous set of rules, and made some changes, such as the contingency plan, for which Lin Yi made full preparations.

"I personally feel that this financial crisis is extraordinary and cannot be compared to the financial crisis in 97. The scale will be much larger, and Phoenix Financial's current funds may not be able to protect it." Lin Yi deliberately paused here and looked at Lu Shaohua's expression. Seeing that the latter did not react much, Lin Yi continued. "I personally feel that we should be decisive when we should give up. If we cannot resist, we have no choice but to abandon it."

The last words were Lin Yi's ultimate purpose. As he said, this financial crisis was huge, much bigger than the one in 97, and Phoenix Financial did not have much capital available, so it was impossible to allocate so much money to support the invested companies.

If those companies do not have the funds to defend themselves, Phoenix Financial will have no choice but to give up on them. Yes, giving up is Lin Yi's second case.

However, Lin Yi is Lin Yi after all. His understanding of Lu Shaohua is limited. He doesn't know that Lu Shaohua likes to hear the truth, even if it is to belittle the capabilities of the Phoenix Group, as long as it is the truth, Lu Shaohua likes to hear it.

It was probably because Lin Yi didn't quite understand Lu Shaohua, so he was very careful when speaking, fearing that Lu Shaohua would be unhappy. This could be seen from the fact that when Lin Yi spoke, he was staring at Lu Shaohua's face from the corner of his eyes.

However, will Lu Shaohua be angry?

No, Lu Shaohua would not be angry. Not only would he not be angry, but he would be very happy. After all, the second plan proposed by Lin Yi was very correct, resolute and decisive. Having such an employee would undoubtedly reduce some burdens for the boss Lu Shaohua. What else could Lu Shaohua be unhappy about?

When Liu Mingzhang and Li Yunqing heard Lin Yi's words, they were also very happy and shouted in their hearts that there was someone behind them.

Liu Mingzhang and Li Yunqing have achieved what they have today thanks to their resolute decisions from time to time, which have helped them avoid many dangers and brought many benefits to Phoenix Financial. Now that they see a junior who is just like them, how can they not be happy?

You know, Liu Mingzhang and Li Yunqing could have been in charge of Phoenix Financial for many years. Now that there is someone who can replace them, it means that they can only focus on the overall situation in the future and don't have to worry about the affairs of Phoenix Financial.

“It’s time to be lazy…”

This is why Liu Mingzhang and Li Yunqing are happy.
