He Yuzhu was able to provide assistance to Baiwei Group because he had a large amount of funds in his hands after NBC went public. Through international operations, these funds were cleverly returned to China, but in the form of RMB. He Yuzhu had sufficient funds and was not in a hurry to dilute Lou Xiaoe's equity. After all, the friendship between the two sides lasted for decades.

Nowadays, although she often has free time, Lou Xiao'e prefers to come alone. After all, her eldest son and his wife have already started a family and have children. Why should she be with her husband? Money is no longer a necessity for He Yuzhu. Maintaining a good relationship is more important.

...

"Boss, there's something going on here."

There was a message from Tommy on the phone.

He Yuzhu was quite surprised by the accident at the agricultural company.

Logically speaking, dealing with the agriculture industry should be the least problematic.

Although there are many farm workers scattered around in small towns, they are mainly Asians, who are usually honest and trustworthy and not prone to trouble.

So, what kind of problems will agricultural companies encounter? He Yuzhu already has a plan in mind on how to solve them.

After He Yuzhu conducted a deeper investigation, he found that the problem came from a group of African-American employees within the company, as expected.

These people actually went to the union and demanded higher pay and benefits.

This behavior itself is somewhat unfair because the agricultural company they belong to already pays higher wages than the industry average and is adjusted at a rate of 5 percent each year.

Now these people are clamoring for a salary increase, and it only targets their group, which seems very unreasonable.

Everyone knows Tommy's abilities, but now he actually asks him for help, which means there must be something fishy going on.

With doubts, He Yuzhu decided to go there in person to solve the problem.

Considering the urgency of the situation, he did not plan to bring Wenli and his sister and her husband with him, because he expected the trip would not last long, and the abnormal events involved this time were not suitable for them to deal with together.

He Yuzhu flew directly to Los Angeles on a private jet.

After arriving, Tommy came with a team to pick him up, accompanied by He Yuzhu's bodyguards and motorcade. "Boss, I'm very sorry, this happened so suddenly."

As soon as he got into the car, Tommy hurriedly explained: "We have asked the lawyers to contact the union, but they reacted very firmly. Fortunately, it did not really hinder our planting work."

After hearing this, He Yuzhu decided: "Immediately hire more agricultural workers, not considering African Americans this time, and notify the legal department to fire these troublemakers.

Get them out of my town, and get all the surrounding police to drive them out too."

He also coldly ordered: "Let the lawyers tangle with them and fight a protracted war. I am not afraid of spending money."

Facing his angry boss, Tommy realized that the situation was serious this time, "Boss, please consider the legal aspect..."

“Don’t talk to me about the law, Tommy.

You are well aware of the intricacies of domestic law.

I don’t care how much money it costs to have lawyers fight the union for years.”

He Yuzhu said with a sullen face.

He believes that he has been paying salaries 5% higher than the average level of his peers, adjusting them every year, and even promising them stable housing, but some people do not know how to repay him.

At this moment, he felt as if he was being treated as a capitalist and should be exploited continuously.

Tommy didn't dare to say anything more. He took out his phone and started to act. After more than ten minutes, everything was arranged: "Boss, there is a problem. Although these African-American employees have problems, no one has ever asked for a pay increase."

"This highlights that there is definitely a conspiracy behind the union."

He Yuzhu agreed.

“I understand.

I came here because I noticed this.

Moreover, the other party's strategy seems crude and simple, and only encourages African-American workers.

But these simple-minded fellows have no idea of ​​their situation.”

“Someone tried to take me down, but it wasn’t a threat at all.

It can be easily resolved with just one phone call.

This method is too low-level. I really want to know their real purpose."

He was curious about his opponent's intentions.

However, in reality, when the opponent first started to plot against him, they did not expect that he would show up in person.

This situation made them feel relaxed. They didn't have to continue planning and could just wait to take action.

Faced with this sudden situation, although he was forced to fight, He Yuzhu remained highly alert.

He doesn't believe it's a truly fair and just place.

It was his instinctive choice to take action as soon as he noticed the slightest sign.

Not only did he come to the scene to deal with the problem personally, he also arranged a meeting with Goldman Sachs personnel at the villa.

When the convoy arrived at the villa, Goldman Sachs personnel were already waiting there.

He Yuzhu got straight to the point and asked, "Someone wants to attack me?"

"I don't know."

The man shook his head and replied, "He, we just got wind of this. This incident is too sudden."

“While this is common in all industries, your company consistently pays above average wages and offers good benefits, especially in a small farming town.”

"In our opinion, you are too kind.

But just because of this, why would they suddenly do this with such tempting conditions? "

"That's the problem."

He Yuzhu said in a deep voice: "Since someone is willing to give up a stable income to strive for a greater return, I think someone is looking for trouble with me."

“However, I don’t see a problem at this point.

They are forming a small team to do it, which is not logical.”

“That’s why I came here to investigate, and I expect there will be follow-up actions.

Is this something on Wall Street?"

“No, your agricultural subsidiary is just a branch and is foreign-owned and not listed.”

The Goldman Sachs source added: “They have no reason to be interested in this because the returns are limited.”

“Besides, if there is something behind this, we will definitely get clues.

It may be an event that is operated behind closed doors.

But we can see the potential benefits.”

"Benefit?"

He Yuzhu stroked his chin and said, "Okay, you guys keep an eye on it for me.

Contact all stakeholders at the same time to see if you can find out the key to the problem.”

"agree.

Then I will leave first."

The Goldman people left.

He Yuzhu fell into deep thought.

He has been very careful and has been continuously pushing his subsidiaries towards listing, but he himself has no pressure to go public as the profits are huge, after all.

Once the company goes public, he will have to sell a large portion of his shares, but he will be able to retain the position of chairman. This is a need for funds, not a choice for controllers.

Every quarterly financial report is the secret weapon for stock price growth.

Lion Entertainment's market value is approaching two trillion US dollars. Relying on the success of IP copyrights and Marvel movies, the sales and licensing of peripheral products, it is simply a shining golden rice bowl.

The box office has been soaring, and Lion Films' annual box office has exceeded 10 billion US dollars. It handles everything from production to distribution, and half of its revenue comes from its own profits.

This profitability has surpassed any movie giant!

In addition, the novels and TV series derived from Marvel are also lucrative and extremely popular.

This cross-media cooperation model is not new. The key lies in establishing a unified cosmic view, which deeply attracts the audience.

However, the question is about agricultural companies. What is the other party's goal? After all, what kind of benefits can they get here? If there is a purpose, they usually interfere with their own listed companies to shake up the stock price and make some arrangements in the stock market.

However, the other party did not do so, but instead targeted He Yuzhu's agricultural subsidiary.

This is a foreign-funded company and a branch of the Baiwei Group.

There are no flaws from planting, processing to sales.

The only possible impact may be to spend a lot of money to hire lawyers to deal with it.

Well, it’s not about money!

He Yuzhu quickly ruled out the possibility that it was for money. After all, he was self-sufficient and did not affect other businesses. It was impossible for him to use the agricultural company to make extra profits.

As for the four major international grain groups, they are engaged in grain, especially soybeans, so the impact on them is not significant.

my country has a complete strategic grain reserve system. Even the four major international grain traders cannot get involved in soybean affairs. This is meaningless to them. After all, small-scale actions are not enough to shake the core of soybean seeds and production.

He Yuzhu's first suspects were the large international grain companies, but he immediately ruled them out because such actions would have little impact on soybeans.

It’s definitely not about money!

Turning to other potential reasons, what kind of interests could make him a target of attack? It seems that the income of agricultural companies has grown steadily, but compared with other industries, the profits are really limited.

Since the output of soybean oil is relatively small, the remaining bean dregs can be used as feed and the benefits cannot be underestimated. There is no benefit in angering him because his wealth is quite huge.

There is no benefit in offending him. If he catches you, the severity of the retaliation will be unbearable for ordinary people and companies.

After all, He Yuzhu's funding sources and influence far exceed those of ordinary people. With the listing of the subsidiary, more allies will stand for interests rather than friendship.

He Yuzhu began to sort out the sectors involving his interests. Only those companies directly under his control might become targets, and his personal influence was relatively weak.

The sports teams and the automobile industry are excluded. The former has a narrow impact, and the investment in winning the NBA championship is not the main reason for anyone, and it is not just about his team.

As for the automobile business, he sold many sub-brands, leaving only three that focus on their respective fields. This undoubtedly limited his market scope and the competitive pressure was not great, so he did not cause himself trouble.

Moreover, He Yuzhu's automobile industry is mainly in China, and if he takes action, it will make the other party feel difficult.

Although Lion Media Group can compete for box office revenue, the global film market is vast, and the number of high-quality films under its control is limited, so the box office revenue is not much.

Netflix has nothing to do with it, NBC is the possible problem.

The only possibility that He Yuzhu could think of was NBC TV, because it remained neutral and drifted between the two parties, which could easily cause conflicts among the parties.

The agricultural company that caused trouble first had the least problems exposed, which also meant that it was the link with the smallest impact. The clues gradually became clear.

If they want to deal with me silently, there must be a bigger plot behind it.
