At the entrance of Nanyuan Hotel, Sun Yalin got off the car with her female companion, looking angry.

  Shen Hua stuck his head out of the car window and said, "Little sister, I still remember when we first went to France, you took care of me the most. Now that we're back in the country, us siblings shouldn't forget to take care of each other." As he finished speaking, he pulled out a business card from his wallet and handed it over, "If there's anything inconvenient for you at Donghua, remember to give me a call." It seemed as if they were really just siblings catching up on old times before parting ways.

  "Take care of your mom!" Sun Yalin said viciously, "You dare to hurt Sophia, I'll never let you off..."

  "You too, you too." Shen Hua smiled with a flushed face.

  Sun Ya Lin was furious and threw her handbag at him.

  Kui De Shen Huai shook the car window quickly, put his handbag outside, and urged Yang Haipeng to drive faster. Just then, when the car turned a corner, there was a "crash" sound, and Sun Yalin's package was crushed.

  Through the rearview mirror, Sun Yalin's frantic face was seen, picking up a brick on the side of the road to chase and smash the car. Shen Hua urged Yang Haipeng to step on the gas, leaving this crazy woman behind.

  "Damn it, the roof leaks just in time for a continuous night of rain," Shen Hui opened a small gap in the car window and smoked with Yang Haipeng while driving, explaining the situation to Yang Haipeng in a lighthearted tone. "This little cousin of mine has had a bad relationship with me since we were in France. I didn't expect that this time she came to China, she would be the representative of Yixin Bank setting up a branch in Donghua. It's also Du Jian's fault for not wiping his butt clean. The steel factory owes Yixin Bank a loan, which was borrowed at the beginning of the year. At first, there were some problems with the submitted documents, and she got hold of the handle..."

  Yang Haipeng knew that Meixi Steel Plant was in trouble before Shen Hua took over, and it was normally impossible to get a loan from the bank again. The money borrowed from Industry Bank at the end of last year was not a problem, which is strange.

  But seeing Sun Yalin's furious expression, it seemed like there was something even more deadly that Shen Hui had grasped in his hands. Yang Haipeng also knew that some things were not for him to ask about, so he asked: "It shouldn't have any impact on the steel factory, right?"

  "It's hard to say," Shen Huai said, "I also can't figure out this little sister's temper..."

  Shen Hua had Yang Haipeng send him back to Mei Xi, the night was already deep, Chen Dan, who had ended her day's work at the hotel, waited for him in the house. Shen Hua spent a warm moment with her and simply told her about Sun Ya Lin's matter before they went to sleep separately.

  The next day, which was also the second day of New Year's Day, happened to be Sunday. Except for the frontline workers who were on duty, other employees took a rest as usual. Shen Hua arrived at the office of the steel plant early in the morning, called Qian Wen-hui to inform her to work overtime, and then called Guo Quan over to understand the loan from Ye Xin Bank at the beginning of the year.

  There were indeed some very serious false statements in the loan application materials submitted to Industrial Bank of Korea at the beginning of the year.

  At that time, the Meixi Steel Plant was already in a state of poor liquidity, and without the loan from Yeshin Bank, it would have been unable to wait for Shen Hua to take over before shutting down. However, given the operating conditions of Meixi Steel Plant at the time, it was impossible to obtain a loan from Yeshin Bank, which had strict management, by falsifying materials.

  Shen Hua is not responsible for what happened in the past, but once the problem is exposed, even if it's an internal settlement, without pursuing the relevant person's responsibility, China Industrial Bank will inevitably require to recover this loan in advance, which is enough to give Shen Hua a headache.

  Shen Hua didn't know if his "cousin" Sun Ya Lin had picked up his business card, but he could only wait patiently and not let go of the initiative that he had finally grasped.

  It wasn't until the afternoon that a strange mobile phone number came in, and Shen Huan pressed the key to connect.

  After such a long time of calmness, his cousin's voice sounded more rational:

  "No matter how you threaten me, it's useless. With my authority, even if I don't expose the problem, I can help you cover it up for at most two months..." Sun Yalin said over the phone.

  "You don't have to test me, my English isn't good enough, it's not a problem if I can understand." Shen Hua responded in English, directly shattering Sun Yalin's last hope.

  Over the phone, Shen Hua could hear Sun Ya Lin gritting her teeth, and his heart ached with sourness.

  After a while, Sun Yalin composed her emotions and said in Mandarin: "The actual situation is also like this. After the New Year, the headquarters will conduct an audit of each branch. Two months later, it will be the turn of Huaihai Province Branch. Mei Xi Steel Factory has such a big problem with the submitted materials, and it's unlikely that the audit won't find anything... If you can return the money before the audit, I think there won't be any problems."

  Shen Huai thought to himself: If I can pay off this loan ahead of time, will I still have to put up with your attitude?

  Now, the monthly cash flow of the steel mill is only over 200 million, and he has almost turned over the existing funds to the extreme, just to support the monthly output of 6,000 tons. If 160 million yuan in funds were suddenly withdrawn, the entire production would inevitably be paralyzed.

  "I don't need you to help me hide anything," Shen Huai said into the phone, "I hope you can come to Meixi Steel Factory in person. I can lay out all the financial data of Meixi Steel Factory, past and present, for you to see. What's your relationship with Sofia, I don't care at all. I only have one request for you..."

  "What's between us has nothing to do with Sophia, don't drag her into this."

  Listening to her cousin's frantic voice on the phone, Shen Huan said: "Okay, okay, I won't mention that name again. I'll send a car to pick you up at the hotel right away..."

  "No need, I'm now at the gate of your steel factory, you come out and pick me up immediately." Sun Yalin said in a hard tone.

  Shen Huai heard Sun Ya Lin's submissive voice and was overjoyed. He grabbed his coat and put it on, then headed straight to the factory gate to pick up his "cousin".

  Sun Yalin came alone by car, wearing a black coat that wrapped her tall figure tightly, her brown long hair was casually stuffed into the collar, blown by the cold wind, messy and disheveled, setting off her small oriental face with precision and elegance. This beautiful woman, his cousin-in-law, actually liked women, Shen Hua felt quite disappointed.

  As Shen Hua walked out of the factory, Sun Ya Lin's expression turned icy.

  Looking at Shen Hua's very serious appearance as a factory manager, even if the handle was held in Shen Hua's hand, Sun Ya Lin couldn't help but use words to tease him: "You really have some presence, in the future when Longqing Group needs someone to take pictures and hang them up, please go be a model, you're more suitable than anyone else."

  "In everyone's eyes, I'm just a straw bag, and it's not worth it for you to mock me like this, little sister who graduated from Hadley Rollin Business School. I've said before, as long as you come over in person and understand the current situation at the steel factory, what I promised you won't be empty words." Shen Huai said.

  "What's 'basically won't go back on his word'?" Sun Ya Lin glared at Shen Huai, but she had never taken him as a gentleman who kept his promises, so she could hold back her temper and said, "I'm already here, what do you want me to see?"

  "This is your visitor's pass, wear it around your neck..." Shen Huai handed the visitor's badge to Sun Ya Lin, then led her to the changing room to change shoes, put on a safety helmet, and even found an elastic band for her hair tie.

  "Aren't you the manager of this factory? Can't your guests come and go as they please? This doesn't seem like the style of a domestic factory!" Sun Yalin also had a mouthful of bitter words that she couldn't vent, and whenever she had the chance, she would jab at Shen Huai.

  Shen Huai also became annoyed and said: "At the beginning of the year, the steel plant encountered great difficulties, but the difficulties have now passed. You came back to Mei Creek Town for field research without notifying our factory, but instead visited people unrelated to our factory. If you take these visit messages as materials for examining the steel industry and submit them, it would be unfair to us..."

  Shen Huai's formal tone made Sun Ya Lin somewhat surprised, but she also retorted: "I can look up the bank account information of Mei Xi Steel Factory, which is enough to prove that the materials you submitted at the beginning of the year were fake. Why would I need to inform you and listen to a pack of lies?"

  "You may have learned advanced management knowledge at Harvard Business School, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can adapt to the domestic market environment," Shen Hua said. "The domestic market has experienced multiple shocks in the past year, including the dual-track system, steel price liberalization, and inflation, which is much more complicated than what you learned from books or imagined. If you can't clarify these issues, you can't say that we fabricated false information at the beginning of the year, but rather made some minor adjustments..."

  "Hmph," Sun Yalin suppressed the urge to spit at Shen Hui, and smiled, "If George and the others knew that you could make something absurd sound so reasonable and serious, teaching me a lesson like this, do you think they'd be scared out of their wits?"

  Shen Huai listened to Sun Ya Lin's mocking smacking sound, restrained the urge to slap her, and could only blame that idiot from before for being too despicable.

  Shen Hua was also wise and did not call Qian Wen-hui, Wang Kang-sheng or anyone else to accompany him, otherwise it would have affected the prestige he had established with great difficulty in the steel plant.

  Shen Huai didn't waste any more words with Sun Ya Lin and directly took her to the production line.

  Sun Yalin initially didn't forget to mock Shen Huan, but as she entered the production area, her expression gradually became serious.

  Changqing Group does not have an iron and steel industry under its name, but Sun Yalin studied industrial financial management. Years of work experience made her contact with modern industrial enterprises a lot.

  Shen Huai took her into the electric furnace steelmaking workshop, and compared with the production lines of German ThyssenKrupp Steel, French ArcelorMittal and other large steel plants that she had seen before, there was not much difference.

  Steel dragons generally have smelting equipment distributed along the production line, operating in an orderly manner. Well-trained workers are stationed at each post, meticulously completing their tasks.

  The small computer running in the control room is a product of the late 1980s from abroad, which is somewhat outdated, but the key is that they are all operating effectively; The technical workers who maintain them also appear to be very professional.

  "At present, the threaded steel products produced on this line account for 80% of our entire factory's output; to the north is the workshop that produces part one, all of which are old equipment from the sixties and seventies, I won't take you to visit. Moving forward, it's our storage and transportation department, where you can see the actual situation of loading and unloading goods and steel materials...". Shen Huai took "cousin" Sun Ya Lin to continue moving forward.

  Sun Yalin stopped there, putting away the thoughts that had been stabbing Shen Hua from time to time, and asked seriously:

  "After I came to China, I visited several steel companies that are considered first-class by the domestic government and also know their financial situation. Just based on the production line I saw earlier, to be honest, it's hard to imagine that Meixi Steel Plant's previous financial situation was so bad. Can you tell me what happened here?"

  "It's said that an expert reveals their skill at a glance, no need for unnecessary words."

  Shen Huai stopped in his tracks and saw Sun Ya Lin's serious attitude towards work, which was much more acceptable than the previous one, and said:

  "This is what I want to tell you: when applying for a loan from Yeshin Bank, Meixi Steel Plant was in a very difficult situation and even used some not-so-bright means. However, with the financial support of Yeshin Bank, Meixi Steel Plant has been able to reorganize its production, which is what you just saw. I admit that Meixi Steel Plant had many problems before, but if you don't include the changes in Meixi Steel Plant now in your report, it would be very unfair to Meixi Steel Plant and its 900 employees..."
