67: Chapter 67: Bank Collection!
Zhao Jianfeng bitterly smiled.
“Ever since I retired, I’ve faced several assassination attempts, but none as fierce as this ti.
Honestly, I want to know who hates so much.”
Zhou Yu looked astonished.
He thought this was the first ti, not realizing that over the years, Zhao Jianfeng had already been the target of more than one assassination attempt.
No wonder he had hired an expert like Wang Bing for close protection.
What on earth had the old man done to attract such hatred???
However, given the current atmosphere, it was not the ti to ask more.
Zhou Yu shrugged his shoulders.
“Then I’ll head back first, you guys handle things here.”
Zhou Yu turned and left.
A quiet night passed.
The next day.
Lin Luoluo was up before six o’clock and went to the group’s office.
Zhou Yu, as usual, had breakfast and arrived at the company around nine.
Upon entering the company, Zhou Yu instantly noticed that the atmosphere had drastically changed, it was very oppressive.
Even the bustling Engineering Departnt Four was quiet.
Zheng Qiu and Wang Miao both looked like frostbitten eggplants.
“What’s wrong with you two?”
Zhou Yu walked in, curious.
Zheng Qiu sighed:
“Qi Fei just ca by and said that starting this month, salaries will be delayed.
It seems the group is indeed in trouble.”
Wang Miao added:
“Yes, I heard Uncle Lin is having trouble pulling in investnts.
Early in the morning, President Lin and the others were already in a eting.”
Zhou Yu laughed:
“We won’t be finished, rest assured.”
Zheng Qiu and Wang Miao’s expressions brightened and they quickly gathered around.
“Brother Yu, do you have so exclusive news?
Please share with us.”
Just as Zhou Yu was about to tell them, Qi Fei suddenly rushed in.
“It’s bad, the bank’s people suddenly showed up.”
“All four major banks from Yancheng are here.”
Zheng Qiu and Wang Miao stood up in shock.
“What’s happening?”
“I don’t know, but them showing up at this critical mont can’t be good,” Qi Fei said anxiously.
…
Lin Group’s conference room.
Lin Wanhao, Lin Luoluo, and so senior executives of Lin Group were looking at the four major banks’ representatives with extrely ugly expressions.
Lin Wanhao was furious.
“My Lin Group has always been an exemplary enterprise in Yancheng, fully paying taxes and never owing any, and we’re well-regarded within the industry, one of the finest enterprises in Yancheng.”
“Our company’s liabilities are within reasonable limits, and we even hold premium projects like the Green Wetlands, yet you four banks are making things difficult everywhere and won’t grant us loans.”
“Even if you won’t grant loans, we have always fulfilled our contractual obligations without ever defaulting, why then are you demanding early repaynt?”
One of the bank representatives smirked coldly and pulled out a docunt.
“These are the procedures of the loan you took with our bank.
We have now verified that the information you provided then does not match the actual situation.
According to regulations, we are entitled to demand imdiate repaynt of the loan, otherwise, we will blacklist Lin Group and apply for forced execution.”
Lin Wanhao picked up the docunt, glanced through it, and beca even more enraged.
The loan docunt indeed was the one they provided during the initial loan, with problematic sections already marked.
But those issues were nothing more than nitpicking.
For instance, there were alleged quality issues in a certain mortgage project of the company, but such issues were bound to appear over ti and could simply be resolved by normal maintenance.
Yet, they were marked as substandard in project quality.
At that mont, the other three banks also threw their docunts onto the table.
The problems highlighted in the materials were more or less the sa, clearly targeting them deliberately.
Anyone with clear eyes could see that they were being deliberately difficult.
Lin Wanhao was so angry that his blood pressure soared and his hair practically stood on end.
Lin Luoluo quickly cald her father down and took a deep breath before saying:
“Gentlen, I, as the general manager of Lin Group, sincerely apologize for the issues pointed out in these materials.”
“To show our sincerity, I’ve prepared so gifts as a token of appreciation for your hard work during this inspection.
Please show so understanding and give our group a chance to rectify these issues.”
Lin Luoluo’s words were well-asured and her implied aning was clear.
Under normal circumstances, such a statent would allow everyone involved to step down gracefully.
But today, the representatives of the four banks straightforwardly refused.
“President Lin, I’m sorry, but this is our duty.
A problem is a problem.
Since it has been detected, it must be corrected imdiately or it might lead to greater issues later, which no one can afford,” one of the bank representatives said.
“President Lin, there’s no need to go to any trouble.
I’m telling you clearly, as all four of us have co today, you only have one option: repay all the loans imdiately, or else, the consequences will be even more severe.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanhao slamd the table and stood up.
“You’re all hoodlums, a bunch of hoodlums, I’m going to sue you all.”
One of the representatives scoffed.
“Sue us?”
“Haha, go ahead and sue.
But before that, repay the loan.
Afterward, do whatever you want, we’ll be waiting.”
“And if you don’t pay?
Haha, sorry, I guarantee that by tomorrow at the latest, we will enforce it.”
“You…” Lin Wanhao was so angry he almost spat blood.
Lin Luoluo was also seething with anger, but still managed to keep her composure.
“Dad, calm down for now,” she said, soothing Lin Wanhao, then turned to face the heads of the four banks, gritting her teeth:
“Give us one day to gather the funds, we will surely pay by tomorrow.”
“Fine, we’ll give you one day.”
“We’ll be back tomorrow, and I hope President Lin does not go back on her word.
Let’s go.”
The representatives of the four major banks, carrying an air of arrogance, strode out.
After the people from the four major banks had left, Lin Wanhao, unable to contain his fury, smashed the water cup on the table hard to the ground.
It shattered into pieces.
“What the hell is going on?”
“Yesterday, when I went to apply for a loan, I already felt they were being overly difficult, but today, they intensified their efforts, these people are clearly out to destroy Lin Group.”
“What on earth did Lin Group do wrong?”
Lin Wanhao’s words struck Lin Luoluo, making her thoughtful.
Suddenly, she rembered the incident in the underground garage a few days ago.
Instantly, her expression darkened.
“Could it be…”
