Capital Internet Finance Building, OFO’s corporate headquarters.

Employees continue to work as usual and are busy at their workstations.

However, the employees who usually slacked off have subconsciously restrained themselves in the past two days.

Although the entire company looks normal, a closer look reveals that one can still feel the depression and anxiety among the employees.

The employees naturally got the news that the 18 billion euro financing was cancelled.

In particular, the management of OFO company itself is not very good.

The largest office in the company is on the 11th floor.

It is over 70 square meters in total and is divided into small rooms.

The large room serves as the main office, with a large custom-made huanghuali wood desk, a rosewood carved tea table, and cabinets also made of mahogany.

There are various blue and white porcelains, precious porcelains, and various antique products displayed on it.

If you don’t know, you might think it is a collector’s office or study.

But in reality, it is the office of OFO’s founder, Mr. Dai.

At the same time, these valuable items are gathered in this office without any sense of harmony.

Whether it is antiques or office supplies made of various precious woods, there is no sense of harmony in the unified style, and even in the eyes of many experts, they are obviously amateurish.

Of course, the people in the room were not focusing on this at the moment.

Everyone's eyes turned to a fair-skinned fat man, Qi Jie, who was the company's chief financial officer hired at a high salary two years ago.

"Boss Qi, we are not excluding you, but you have to bear the main responsibility for the lack of funds in Yantai City and the inability to pay the deposit a few days ago!"

"Now our technical department is taking the blame for you, but today we are the only ones here, so you must give me an explanation."

It was Vice President Liao, who was in charge of the technical department, who spoke.

It has been three days since this incident, but the focus of discussion is still on the fact that Yantai City could not redeem the funds within two hours.

Since he was the one who took the blame for Qi Jie from the Finance Department, he was looking for an explanation from Mr. Qi in front of Mr. Dai.

"Yes! Not to mention Mr. Liao's technical department, our operations and marketing colleagues worked all night for two days to suppress the matter online!"

A sharp and piercing female voice followed, and just by hearing the voice one could tell that this woman was difficult to deal with.

It was Vice President Wang who was in charge of operations and marketing. At this moment, he also joined Vice President Liao and they looked like they were jointly denouncing Qi Jie.

Given Qi Jie's personality, he would have been unable to hold back and started fighting back a long time ago.

In this competition for office executives, Qi Jie, a CFO from Tencent, can be said to be experienced.

The financial department, which I am mainly responsible for, is definitely a non-stick pan.

Although he has only been in OFO for less than two years, his power and trust in the company have long surpassed those of the veterans who have been with Mr. Dai.

But today Qi Jie had a gloomy face and said nothing in the face of criticism from his colleagues.

He looked at Mr. Dai, who had just flown back from Japan, with a grim expression.

In order to save Mr. Sun's financing idea, Mr. Dai tried his best to take remedial measures and flew to Japan in person.

It’s just that capital is sometimes like this. The less you force it, the more eager it is to give you money.

The lower your posture, the more suspicious the other party will be.

His action made Mr. Sun, who had not yet made up his mind, see the true situation of the company and completely extinguished the idea of ​​financing.

Mr. Dai, who was in a depressed mood this morning, just flew back to China. Now he can't rest with dark circles under his eyes. He still needs to set the tone for the company's affairs.

Seeing Qi Jie's uncharacteristic expression, he changed his attitude even though he was originally prepared to blame him.

"Stop arguing! It's already so late! You're still thinking about what happened two days ago!"

"The most important thing now is that Mr. Sun will no longer provide us with financing. Qi Jie, what is the current financial situation of the company?"

Mr. Dai knew that he was crazy about the company's operations before the New Year, and the payment of year-end bonuses would be far beyond the standard huge payment under the upcoming 18 billion yuan financing.

Judging from Qi Jie’s current condition, his financial situation might not be good.

"Boss Dai, the capital chain is very tight!"

“Without new financing, the company may not survive until next month!”

Ever since the financial crisis in Yantai City, Qi Jie has been wanting to talk to President Dai over the phone about the funding chain.

But unfortunately, Mr. Dai was always busy discussing financing with Mr. Sun.

We also know that these issues will not be a problem once the financing is completed.

Who knew that Mr. Sun would actually cancel the financing, which disrupted all the company's plans!

It was not until today when General Dai returned that I had the opportunity to report.

"How can this be?!"

"Our company's capital chain will be broken? Are you kidding me?"

No matter how much Mr. Dai expected, he could not have imagined that there would be such great pressure!

You have to know that the user deposits collected by their platform alone amount to nearly 40 billion, so how could there be any problem with the capital chain?

Qi Jie didn't say much and directly reported the financial data.

"The company currently owes 57 billion to the bank, 19 billion to Alibaba, and 10 billion to suppliers, totaling 86 billion. User deposits are currently 36 billion, but this money has already entered the financial market and has been put into market operations."

"Next month, we need to repay a total of 4.7 million yuan in loans, 6100 million yuan in employee wages, and 1.8 million yuan in supplier payments."

"We only have 2 million in liquid funds on our books. If we don't think of a solution, our company will go bankrupt next month!"

Listening to Qi Jie utter a series of cold numbers.

Even executives who don't know much about the company's financial situation can tell the huge crisis the company is currently in.

A broken capital chain is a very dangerous thing, and it can be a devastating blow to any company.

Not to mention financial-type companies like OFO.

There is no need to wait until the day of the collapse. As long as the news gets out, OFO users can demand a deposit refund and the company will go bankrupt.

"How is this possible? ...How is this possible?"

Vice President Wang, who is over 40 but still looks very well-maintained, muttered to himself.

His face no longer had the look of waiting for a good show as he had just denounced Qi Jie, but was now filled with fear and anxiety.

"Qi Jie! Did you embezzle our company's funds?"

"Our company has raised at least tens of billions of dollars. How come you only have so little money left? And there's still such a huge amount of bank debt!"

"It must be you, the villain!"

Vice President Liao was cursing even more fiercely at this moment. If there hadn't been someone stopping him, he would have rolled up his sleeves and was ready to fight.

"Old Dai, I told you that the financial director must be cautious and not look for outsiders!"

"Look at this Qi Jie, what kind of talent can be released by Tencent?!"

"Our company is going to be ruined by him!"

At this moment, Vice President Liao's dissatisfaction with the pressure he had been facing since Qi Jie took office completely erupted.

Moreover, it was a small internal company meeting, and everyone lost the executive demeanor they presented themselves to employees. There were only the most thorough and direct conflicts of interest and verbal abuse.
