63: Chapter 63: Big Brother Takes Action, There Will Be Results Tomorrow!

Ludu Island, within a certain office floor of the Dongxin Group, Sun Dongxin suddenly halted his steps.

As long as he was on Ludu Island, it was his daily morning routine to stroll through the company’s office area, a core practice he had maintained for years to keep a tight control over the company.

His abrupt stop wasn’t a trivial matter, startling the people following him.

They nearly collided!

And if they actually had, it would have spelled major trouble!

“Mr.

Sun, there’s a problem with the guarantee that Dongxin made for Chang Fan.

Chang Fan’s two main overseas clients fudged their receivables, and the person in charge of the guarantee audit for you accepted money from Chang Fan’s boss.

If you don’t believe it, you can look into the actual sales performance or channel distribution of those two Polish clients; it’s not hard.

Just send a few people to Poland to have a look,” Cheng Daqi sent a bombshell of a message.

This bombshell was something Sun Dongxin himself had told him in a previous life, quite a notorious incident in the Ludu Island business circles—the old fox was knocked on the head by his own ‘good brother’.

The Dongxin Group was a conglomerate with a vast range of businesses, including one that specifically provided guarantees for other companies.

The Chang Fan fraud incident merely cost Sun Dongxin an insignificant goal; to the Dongxin Group, the money wasn’t really a big deal.

But the incident left a deep impression on Sun Dongxin.

After all, following the incident, he was teased by other business owners at banquets and meetings, for an entire year!

Because the deceit by Chang Fan was so intricate, for the sake of several billion in guarantees, Chang Fan’s boss had set up a whole troupe for Sun Dongxin.

Crafting a troupe to swindle money, they were indeed professional!

A cluster of actors was just the foundation, complemented by a well-prepared professional script, even planting insiders within and without Dongxin.

Even with his extensive street smarts, Sun Dongxin had learned a harsh lesson.

“How did you come across this information?”

Sun Dongxin wasn’t too surprised; it was all too common to be deceived in business.

It was just the loss of a friend over money, that left him feeling somewhat melancholic.

After reading Cheng Daqi’s analysis, Sun Dongxin already felt there was no need to send anyone to investigate.

Two major clients, both from the same place, had those companies gone mad?

Choosing the same supplier.

He was merely curious why this person would suddenly approach him to disclose this matter.

“You know, I work in corporate business,” Cheng Daqi said matter-of-factly.

Disturbed by this matter, Sun Dongxin naturally lost interest in inspecting the employees’ work conditions.

First, he instructed his secretary to call a meeting, and then he went straight into the conference room in this office area.

“You said you’ve been in the industry for fifteen years, and our ages should be similar, so I’ll just call you Brother Cheng.

Brother Cheng, you’ve really shown great sincerity today.

If you’re free tonight, where shall we meet for dinner?

Having helped me so much, it would be improper not to thank you properly,” Sun said.

In the cramped, dimly lit tent, Cheng Daqi almost let out a laugh.

It was the same old steady vibe; Brother Sun really hadn’t changed a bit.

He knew Sun Dongxin’s ways all too well, starting with a dinner invitation, leading to a show halfway through the meal.

Depending on the guest’s status and attitude during the meal, there would be different arrangements after the show ended.

But now, separated by oceans, Cheng Daqi truly wished he could help but was powerless to do so.

Besides, he had approached the “big brother” for serious business.

“Brother Sun, you flatter me, I said from the start that I’m looking to discuss a partnership.

I hope you can lend me half a million yuan, which I will repay with six hundred thousand within a year.

Whether you choose to believe me or not, consider this information a gift,” Cheng said.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t borrow five million; Cheng Daqi simply didn’t need so much money right now.

Just enough to get started was fine.

He couldn’t be certain of future developments; should his venture into short videos flop, fifty thousand would certainly be easier to repay than five hundred thousand.

Risk control, the essential underlying philosophy needed in one’s life.

Cheng Daqi didn’t speculate in stocks or futures; as an entrepreneur who started out in industrial business, the financial market didn’t concern him much.

For the future, he could only remember two definite major speculative opportunities: Ethereum and the World Cup.

With those two things, Ethereum was a virtual currency, and he just knew it would rise in value, but the specific timing had slipped his mind.

The World Cup was indeed memorable, with Argentina’s devastating defeat against Saudi Arabia pushing countless guys to cry their way onto the rooftop.

But Cheng Daqi wasn’t in a position to worry about either of these opportunities right now.

Small scale means little profit, large scale means unmanageable risk.

Better to stick to one’s old trade and gather the crew to start a company.

Cheng Daqi just hoped to find some funds domestically as soon as possible, to take advantage of the scarce content on streaming platforms and secure a top spot in the foreign vlogger scene.

“Are you sure you only need five hundred thousand?”

Having seen plenty of middlemen who ask for the moon, Sun Dongxin was encountering such a reasonable price for the first time.

As for Cheng Daqi’s promise to repay the money, Sun Dongxin never counted on it.

Dealing with corporate businesspeople was like this; repayment meant you couldn’t even ask for it if they didn’t pay you back.

“Why not add a little more, one million, round it up.”

This was Sun Dongxin’s philosophy, to properly secure partners he found valuable.

Do not engage at all, or go all out to be the good guy.

“Five hundred thousand is enough, but I really do need another small favor from you, President Sun.”

“Go on.”

Lighting a cigarette, Sun Dongxin narrowed his eyes.

Was this it, the actual request?

“Help me register a company, just place the office address in your Dongxin Building, and directly deposit the five hundred thousand into the company’s account.”

Having said that, Cheng Daqi sent over his identity information, all necessary for registering a company.

Sun’s reputation in Lugang was top-notch.

The boss was strict, but his steadfast leadership at the crest of the wave for over a decade came down to his principles and bottom line.

The young man’s sincerity and straightforwardness had taken Sun Dongxin aback.

Wait, why do you trust me so much?

Aren’t you afraid I’ll scam you?

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation; they had been chatting fine all along, and suddenly there was a full reveal of identity.

You just sent over your identity information, that’s a bit sudden.

‘Cheng Daqi, that’s a good name, common yet dignified and auspicious.’

‘Only 21 years old?’

‘It’s not his own identity, I see.’

Looking at the cellphone, Sun Dongxin thought and thought, then replied.

“Don’t worry, I’ll get it sorted out for you tomorrow.

Just send me the company name and business scope.

Do you want me to arrange the phone and email too?”

It was just a company registration.

Even if there were disputes behind the scenes, as long as he didn’t involve more specific interests, he wasn’t worried about any trouble.

What were five hundred thousand?

Nothing!

The biggest difference between Sun Dongxin and the average businessman was his sense of loyalty.

This kind of loyalty helped build his company into a large group, but it also limited Dongxin’s potential for further growth.

However, he believed that in life, one must stand by certain principles.

“However, my friend, what is your actual surname?

There’s no need to hide behind just a given name.”

Cheng Daqi was still pondering the company name when he saw another message from the boss.

Sun, who valued sincerity in dealings, did care about these details; he certainly had character, a capitalist with ideas.

“It really is me, if you don’t believe me, open WeChat Pay and you’ll see my name is Cheng Daqi.”

Sun Dongxin waved his hand to signal the others who had come for the meeting to take a seat, then he opened the transfer function.

“It’s my own issue, don’t take it to heart, bro, just an old habit.”

“Hahaha, no worries, let’s call the company Shanhaiguan, Shanhaiguan Culture Media.”
