After the breakup, I joined the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection

Chapter 243 Paging Stations Can Be Sold

The sale of the paging station is not off-limits for negotiation.

Mu Chenggang was anxious when he heard this. They had finally built up a large paging station, how could they sell it so easily? Wouldn't this play into the hands of Hu Chengsheng and Shen Fengwen?

It was only because Mu Qinghong stepped hard on Mu Chenggang from below that he stopped him from saying it.

Mu Qinghong believed that since Lu An said so, he must have his own considerations.

Hu Chengsheng and Shen Fengwen were also very surprised.

Originally, they had despaired when they saw Yan Ji'an coming with two city leaders, but they didn't expect that things would turn around like this.

However, Hu Chengsheng did not reply immediately for the sake of safety, but discussed it first before making a decision.

Lu An waved his hand and said goodbye.

Hu Chengsheng took Shen Fengwen and Deng Weichen aside.

"Is there something wrong with the paging station?" Hu Chengsheng asked directly.

In his opinion, the only reason Lu An was willing to sell the paging station at this time was that there was something wrong with the paging station itself.

Shen Fengwen also fiercely questioned Deng Weichen whether he had concealed something from them.

Deng Weichen shook his head repeatedly to show that he had said everything he needed to say: "Although the contract phones were given away for free, they were all earned back through card opening and subsequent service fees. There is no debt. The most serious problem is that the company's cash flow is very tight."

Hu Chengsheng and Shen Fengwen were also experienced people. They had checked the accounts of the paging station and knew that this was indeed the case.

I see!

After thinking for a long time, Deng Weichen raised his hand: "Director Lu just mentioned party building work, is it related to this?"

This opened up Hu Chengsheng and Shen Fengwen's minds, and they also felt that this was the only possibility.

Although they were not in the government office, they knew the rule that government leaders could not do business openly. Now that the paging company had been exposed in front of several district and city leaders, Lu An could only find a way to cut ties urgently.

Thinking of this, Hu Chengsheng had a clue in his mind: he was almost fooled by a brat like Lu An.

We must teach that young man Lu An a good lesson today!

……

Hu Chengsheng and the others left, and without Mu Qinghong stopping them, Mu Chenggang could finally let his feelings out.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Didn't we agree to keep the paging station today? Why are you selling it out?"

"Hu Chengsheng could have held the bottom line by calling in the district head, but why are we selling it now that we have the support of the city leaders? This doesn't make sense at all!"

Compared to Mu Chenggang's incomprehension, Mu Qinghong thought more deeply.

She asked if the matter was troublesome: "Will the paging station expose you to the district and city leaders and cause you trouble? Or do you have other unspeakable secrets?"

The first thing Mu Qinghong thought of was whether it would cause trouble for Lu An’s official career.

"That's one aspect of it." Lu An answered honestly. There was no need to be shy in front of Mu Qinghong.

However, Lu An did not explain the relationship between himself and Yan Ji'an, nor did he say whether Yan Ji'an would make a fuss about this.

"On the other hand, and most importantly, I think now is a good opportunity to sell it. After all, the cash flow of Hongxun Company is too dangerous now!"

Lu An reminded Mu Chenggang that he had always asked them to find shareholders or large companies to take over, and this was the purpose.

"Although the paging station can still survive with the money from card opening and service fees, its cash flow is quite fragile."

"Without external investment, as the number of paging station users grows, this contract phone trick will soon be unsustainable."

In fact, the so-called free phone giveaway is just a trick to burn money to grab the market. Now Lu An can barely hold on by relying on the constantly rolling cash flow, compressed human resources, and the rent-free office discount from the management of the Friendly Building. Otherwise, he would be facing a bankruptcy.

Originally, according to Lu An's idea, the best outcome would be to attract a shareholder to inject capital at this stage.

As long as there is fresh cash flow injection, this trick of giving away free machines can continue for a long time.

But now that the matter of the paging station has been exposed to Yan Ji'an, it would be a good idea to just get rid of it.

Of course, the prerequisite is that Hu Chengsheng can offer a good price.

Lu An looked up at Hu Chengsheng and Shen Fengwen who were returning in a lazy manner, and suddenly felt that this goal might be quite difficult to achieve.

As expected, when Hu Chengsheng came back and sat down in front of Lu An, he directly held up five fingers: "Fifty thousand yuan, I'll buy the paging station!"

Mu Chenggang couldn't help but slam the table and angrily scolded Hu Chengsheng for dreaming.

Lu An looked at Hu Chengsheng carefully, and suddenly laughed: "Does Mr. Hu really think I'm that worried?"

what?

Hu Chengsheng didn't react immediately.

Lu An then reminded him: "On the surface, the paging station is under the Hongxun Company owned by Ms. Mu Qinghong. It has nothing to do with me. I am just helping out as a friend."

"Also, the central government's documents do not encourage officials to engage in business, but this is just a tightening of policy in response to the past trend of officials and cadres going into business, and the worsening corruption. Even if the paging station is really mine, there will be no problem."

Lu An finally knocked on the table and said, "So put away your cleverness. If you want to raise the price here, then you are making a wrong calculation."

"Do you think I will believe you if you say that?" Hu Chengsheng grinned.

Shen Fengwen even slammed the table and threatened Lu An that he would report to the Discipline Inspection Commission.

From their performance, Lu An has already seen their nature of being fierce on the outside but weak on the inside.

After all, most people only have a vague understanding of the officialdom. Perhaps they can think that they are worried about their business affairs being exposed, but they have no way of knowing how worried they are.

After all, due to the wave of officials going into business in the early days of reform and opening up, quite a few of them went into business.

"I'm just stating the facts, that's all. You don't need to believe me."

Lu An then looked at Shen Fengwen and said, "You must not have listened carefully just now. I work at the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. Strictly speaking, I am above the two city and district leaders who just entered the box."

Hu Chengsheng and Shen Fengwen were ultimately defeated.

The two men said dejectedly, "Okay, you win, so how much do you want to bid?"

Lu An smiled, and he stood up and said, "You forgot again that I work for the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. On the surface, neither Hongxun nor the paging station has anything to do with me."

"However, considering the current user base of the paging station, my suggestion to Ms. Mu Qinghong is no less than one million yuan!"

Hu Chengsheng exclaimed that it was impossible, the price was too high.

Lu An waved his hand and said, "I have said everything I need to say. I will leave this for you to discuss. I will leave first."

Lu An left these words and stood up to leave...
