Chapter 254: Chapter 254: The Prime Minister’s Belly Can Hold a Boat
Wang Song’s expression was full of disdain as he looked at Lu Jinyuan and said, "You’d better advise your boss there; it’s no use who he calls."
Lu Jinyuan scoffed, "We’ll see about that shortly."
Before long, Chen Fan returned to the private room and sat down again, "Your general manager will be here soon."
Wang Song was somewhat puzzled, "You actually have President Song’s phone number, but don’t think that I’ll agree to grant your loan just because of that. The collaboration with Qingfan Pharmaceuticals is entirely under my jurisdiction!"
Chen Fan just shrugged his shoulders, saying nothing.
Not long after, Song Kangjian hurried to Four Seasons Restaurant and entered the private room.
"Mr. Chen, may I know what it is you need me for?" As soon as Song Kangjian came in, he spoke respectfully.
When he saw that both Wang Song and Lu Jinyuan were in the room, he was momentarily stunned.
With a somewhat gloomy face, Wang Song said, "President Song, we had an agreement that I would be in charge of the loan for Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, and you wouldn’t interfere. You can’t go back on your word."
Looking puzzled, Song Kangjian turned to Chen Fan, "The loan for Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, Mr. Chen, you..."
Chen Fan replied with a smile, "I am the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals."
Song Kangjian’s face changed drastically, and putting together the nature of Wang Song’s character and the words he had just said, he immediately understood why Chen Fan had called him over.
He turned his head to Wang Song and demanded, "Did you give Mr. Chen a hard time?"
Wang Song couldn’t believe that Song Kangjian would come to question him, his face full of disbelief, "President Song, what do you mean? It was our joint decision to present demands to Qingfan Pharmaceuticals. Why are you now speaking up for them?"
Song Kangjian said urgently, "Mr. Chen is no ordinary person, I didn’t know he was the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals before, otherwise I would have never allowed you to make any demands in front of him!"
Wang Song furrowed his brows, "Isn’t he just the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals? Although they are a leading company in the pharmaceutical industry, they have just gained a foothold in Provincial City. We don’t have to be so polite to them, do we?"
Song Kangjian exclaimed angrily, "He is the person who has deposited a hundred billion in our bank. Tell me, should we or should we not be polite to him!"
Wang Song was stunned.
His eyes bulged out as he suddenly stood up.
"That... that hundred billion, is it his deposit?"
Song Kangjian said with a stern face, "What else do you think is making me so anxious!"
Swallowing hard, Wang Song’s lips turned somewhat pale as he looked at Chen Fan with a timid smile, forced out a chuckle, "Heh heh, bro..."
Lu Jinyuan interjected angrily, "Stop trying to cozy up here; you’re not fit to address Mr. Chen like that!"
Wang Song, not the least bit annoyed this time, instead kept on smiling ingratiatingly, "Yes, yes, my apologies, Mr. Chen, earlier I..."
Chen Fan cut him off coldly, "I had thought your bank was reliable, but now it seems I was mistaken. I fear there is a risk in keeping my money at your bank, so I plan to switch to another bank."
Wang Song’s face turned a fearful shade of green. Chen Fan’s deposit had already been reported to higher management, and if he messed this up because of his own doing, he might very well lose his position as a vice president.
"Mr. Chen, I was wrong. I must have been out of my mind to make demands on you. I realize my mistake now and will approve the loan for you immediately. Please keep your money in our bank, will you?"
With an anxious expression, Song Kangjian said beside him, "What use is your word alone? You better get on your knees right now to show Mr. Chen your sincerity in apologizing!"
Wang Song didn’t say a second word before he knelt on the ground, "Mr. Chen, I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Lu Jinyuan couldn’t help but laugh, thinking to himself, "So you have your day too!"
Chen Fan glanced at Wang Song and turned to Song Kangjian, "President Song, the work culture at your bank needs some serious reform. Otherwise, how can I feel assured to keep my money with you?"
Song Kangjian nodded and bowed, "Yes, yes, yes, I’ll call a meeting as soon as I get back to give Wang Song a severe reprimand and dock his salary for three months as a punishment. What do you think about that, Mr. Chen?"
Chen Fan nodded, "Considering your position, I will continue to deposit my money with you."
Song Kangjian sighed with relief.
Wang Song nearly fainted, his back drenched in cold sweat. Hearing Chen Fan’s words, he began to recover a bit.
"Mr. Chen, you really have the generosity of a great prime minister. On behalf of all the staff at our bank, I thank you," Song Kangjian said, tearfully grateful.
Chen Fan smiled faintly, "No need to be polite, just give Qingfan Pharmaceuticals an interest-free loan of ten billion, and raise the interest rate on my one hundred billion deposit by two points, then we can consider the matter settled."
Song Kangjian’s body stiffened.
Chen Fan glanced at him, "What? Unwilling? That’s fine, you’re busy, I’ll just look for a new bank..."
Song Kangjian hurriedly stopped Chen Fan, "Willing, willing, since Mr. Chen has made the request, we will naturally satisfy you."
Chen Fan said with a smile, "Well then, let’s draw up a new contract, and sign it today."
Song Kangjian nodded ruefully, "Alright, I’ll arrange it right away."
Soon, Song Kangjian’s secretary brought over two new contracts: one new deposit contract, and one interest-free loan contract.
After reviewing them, Chen Fan confirmed there were no issues and signed his name.
"Alright, since the contracts are signed, we will take our leave now." Chen Fan and Lu Jinyuan walked out together.
Song Kangjian not only had to suppress his dissatisfaction but also had to accompany them out with a smile.
On the road, Lu Jinyuan laughed heartily, "Mr. Chen, that was truly satisfying. You have no idea how arrogant that Wang Song was in front of me, but just now he knelt without the slightest hesitation."
Chen Fan smiled, "Since the loan is settled, let’s speed up the implementation of the branch office project."
Lu Jinyuan patted his chest, "Rest assured, Mr. Chen, I will handle it."
Chen Fan nodded, "In a few days, I’ll return to Pingyun County. My reputation there isn’t very good, but opening a branch office is also a way to contribute to my hometown. Hopefully, it will change some people’s perceptions of me."
Lu Jinyuan said with a smile, "Mr. Chen is a true dragon among people. With your return home in glory, everyone will surely see you in a new light."
Chen Fan sighed with a smile, "I hope so."
Lu Jinyuan added, "By the way, Mr. Chen, Qingfan Pharmaceuticals has fully completed the acquisition of Lu Pharmaceuticals, and the company has also moved to a better-located office building. Would you like to come for a visit and meet the new colleagues? Otherwise, they’ll all think I’m the boss."
After some thought, Chen Fan responded, "Alright, I’ll visit the company tomorrow."
Lu Jinyuan was very pleased, "We’re still hiring, and there’s an interview session tomorrow. Maybe you could help to screen, Mr. Chen. I believe those who pass your judgment will definitely be talents."
Chen Fan smiled and didn’t say much else. The two separated at an intersection, with Lu Jinyuan returning to his place and Chen Fan heading to Mingyue Hotel, where the presidential suite was always reserved for him.
