Chapter 131 Verbal Sparring with Xu Youwei
Shen Wancheng had HK$1547 million. She had already transferred HK$30 to Li Su, and then gave HK$10 to Lan Qin.
There was also a reward of 2 yuan for Ye Ningshuang.
The acquisition of the watch factory will require the transfer of HK$1500 million.
With each transaction, only a small amount remained on the card.
That's why everyone says starting a business is difficult.
Even if you have the vision to identify the right industry and the right timing, without sufficient funds, you can only get a small share.
If you want to become fat overnight, you first need to have enough money to secure enough ingredients.
Shen Wancheng was considering whether to sell all her shares and focus on developing the company.
After all, Shen Wancheng knew the upper limit of Wharf Holdings' stock holdings; the stocks she bought could only earn her a maximum of ten or twenty million.
But she treats her company like a family business.
Shen Yao, who was sitting next to Shen Wancheng, suddenly spoke up and asked.
"Sister, how much do you want for acquiring the Xu family's watch factory?"
"Fifteen million."
Do you still have money?
"That's just enough. What's wrong? What do you need money for?"
“I don’t need money. You know me, I have nowhere to spend my money. What I’m trying to say is that if you need money, I have a million here. You can take it and use it first.”
As she spoke, Shen Yao took out her card and handed it to Shen Wancheng.
Shen Wancheng was stunned for a moment.
Then he met Shen Yao's gaze, which seemed to say, "If you don't accept me, I'll cause a scene."
Shen Wancheng smiled helplessly and accepted Shen Yao's card.
Shen Yao smiled with satisfaction.
“That’s more like it. You said I also have shares in Oriental Elegance. Although you gave me the excuse of being a technology stock, I know that clothing is only a part of your company’s business. How could it be worth 15 percent of the shares?”
“Although my million is not much, and it was obtained for free, it can at least serve as working capital to help you get by for a while.”
Shen Yao always manages to warm Shen Wancheng's heart without her even realizing it.
Shen Wancheng raised her hand and ruffled Shen Yao's short hair.
"Thank you, Yao Yao."
"We sisters don't need to be so polite."

Li Su deliberately arrived an hour early and waited outside the Xu family's collective building.
He saw Shen Wancheng arrive and went to greet her.
"Mr. Shen, the heads of two companies have arrived, surnamed Cai and Lu respectively. Let's go to the Xu Group's lounge first, and I'll introduce you."
Li Su had always addressed Shen Wancheng as Miss Shen, but on this formal occasion, he automatically changed it to President Shen.
The attention to detail is truly impeccable.
"I don't worry about your work."
Led by Li Su, Shen Wancheng arrived at the lounge, where Li Su introduced her to the CEOs of the other four companies.
Shortly afterward, Xu Youwei personally led a group of people to the lounge to receive them.
Xu Youwei met with the CEOs of the other four companies one by one, but when it was Shen Wancheng's turn, he was stunned.
Xu Youwei thought he was seeing things.
Hesitantly, she asked, "You're Xu Pingtao's niece, Shen..."
Shen Wancheng said frankly, "Hello Mr. Xu, I am Shen Wancheng."
Xu Youwei glanced at Shen Wancheng again.
Shen Wancheng was wearing a women's suit today, with her long, straight black hair cascading over her shoulders, exuding a capable yet gentle aura.
Xu Youwei asked, "Are you also part of the company being acquired today? Is the He family also interested in the watch industry?"
"My attendance represents only my personal opinion and has nothing to do with the He family."
Xu Youwei's eyes still held doubt, clearly showing his disbelief.
Shen Wancheng took a step to the side.
“Xu Sheng, I’m not the main character today. Don’t let me make you overlook the others.”
Xu Youwei suddenly woke up, took another deep look at Shen Wancheng, and then resumed his conversation with the other two big bosses involved in this acquisition.
Xu Youwei inwardly regretted his earlier loss of composure, which allowed Shen Wancheng to curry favor with the other CEOs.
The terms of the acquisition agreement have been negotiated by the heads of the several companies, and today is just one contract signing ceremony away.
Just as Shen Wancheng had predicted, Xu Youwei did have some second thoughts after discovering that Shen Wancheng was the buyer of one of the watch factories.
However, the five acquiring companies, including Dongfang Yasong, acted in unison, and Xu Youwei was worried that the overall acquisition plan might change. Even if he was worried that Shen Wancheng represented the He family, he couldn't back out.
The contract was signed very smoothly.
After the event, as the heads of the five acquiring companies were leaving, Xu Youwei finally couldn't bear it any longer and called out to Shen Wancheng.
"Miss Shen, please wait."
After briefly bidding farewell to the other four CEOs, Shen Wancheng turned to look at Xu Youwei.
"Mr. Xu, is there anything else?"
"It's nothing, I just wanted you to pass on a message to your son, Xu Sheng: neither the watch industry nor any other business is easy to succeed in. People shouldn't overreach themselves."
Xu Youwei's words were so threatening they couldn't be hidden.
Shen Wancheng still had a smile on her face, as if she didn't understand.
“I remember my fiancé has already sent an invitation to your Xu family. Are you getting old and forgetful? My maternal grandfather is Xu Pingtao, that’s true, but I also have a fiancé named Gu Jinxing. How can you be so sure that I am representing the He family?”
Xu Youwei looked down on Shen Wancheng and simply didn't believe that Shen Wancheng was the one who wanted to buy and run the watch factory.
He believed that Shen Wancheng was just a front put forward by Xu Pingtao.
If the watch factory doesn't perform well in the future, they can simply say that they bought the factory to teach Shen Wancheng management skills, so that the He family won't lose face.
Shen Wancheng didn't need Xu Youwei to explain or prove himself, but she didn't mind making Xu Youwei's mind even more confused, so she deliberately mentioned Gu Jinxing.
As expected, Xu Youwei's expression remained unchanged when he heard Shen Wancheng say this, but his eyes showed obvious fluctuations.
Shen Wancheng's psychological skills were not acquired for nothing; she had long seen through Xu Youwei's inner turmoil.
"Does Mr. Xu have anything else to say? Or did you stop me just to ask me to pass on a message to my grandfather and fiancé, telling them not to overstep their bounds?"
Although Xu Youwei didn't know who instigated the recent stock fluctuations in the Xu Group, the ultimate reason for its significant impact was that the Gu family had indeed stopped the transport of watches.
Now that this matter has just been resolved, Xu Youwei has no intention of offending Gu Jinxing again.
Xu Youwei said, "I didn't mean that. We have cooperation with each other and have a long-standing relationship. My niece, you've just come to Hong Kong from the mainland, so you shouldn't talk nonsense."
So she's become a niece again?
Xu Youwei's face is thicker than a city wall.
Shen Yao rolled her eyes.
Shen Wancheng continued.
“I will relay whatever Mr. Xu says. You are so old and still can’t speak properly. I have no choice.”
Seeing that Shen Wancheng was pretending to be confused, Xu Youwei had no choice but to speak frankly.
"I don't need you to pass on any messages. I have nothing to say to you. Just leave."
"Then I'll be going now."
"Thank you, Uncle Xu, for selling me a watch factory worth 100 million for only 15 million."
Which pot does not open which pot.
Xu Youwei had no choice but to sell the watch factory at a loss, and then sold it to Shen Wancheng, who then revealed the loss-making price.
Xu Youwei was so angry that he almost lost his composure, his hands clenched into fists.
Shen Wancheng, however, was completely unaware of what was happening, and walked away hand in hand with Shen Yao while smiling.
Only Kela, who had been following behind Shen Wancheng, glanced warily at Xu Youwei after Shen Wancheng turned around.
