Chapter 34 Speculations

"I'm sorry, I just overheard your conversation." Su Yu tilted his head to ask the middle-aged woman, "Excuse me, are you and your husband working on the construction site of Anke Construction Company?"

The middle-aged woman glanced at Su Yu and nodded, "Yes, we work hard every day, but the wages are delayed again and again."

As she said that, she sighed heavily, not knowing where to raise money next.

"Is it everyone who has not received wages?" Su Yu continued to ask.

The middle-aged woman replied: "I don't know if it's everyone, anyway, my husband and I, and other workers I know, have not seen any money."

"Has there been arrears like this before?" Su Yu asked.

The woman shook her head: "The boss used to settle the bill, and he was very happy. I don't know what happened this time."

"Oh!" Su Yu responded lightly, pondered for a moment, and did not ask any more questions about this topic. Instead, he said, "I see that you have rented a house here for a while. The wages from the construction site were settled on time. Don't you and your husband save some extra money for emergencies?"

"There are three children in the family, and two elderly people." The woman said, "My husband and I send all our monthly wages back home, except for three or four hundred yuan for living expenses. The children need to go to school, the elderly need to spend money when they are sick, and there are also family visits. It's not enough."

Su Yu heard these words and sighed softly, knowing that it's not easy for anyone.

"Can you use mobile banking?" Su Yu asked after a moment of silence.

The woman shook her head, not knowing what mobile banking is.

"Then do you have a bank card with you, or do you remember the bank card number?" Su Yu asked again.

The woman didn't know why he asked that, but she obviously felt that Su Yu had no ill intentions, so she nodded and said, "Yes, yes!"

"Give me your bank card, or bank card number." Su Yu said, "I'll lend you 3,000 yuan first, and pay the rent you owe. You can return it to me later when you get your wages."

The woman was stunned when she heard this, and it took her a long time to react, and she handed the hidden bank card to Su Yu.

Su Yu took out his mobile phone, logged into the mobile banking, and transferred 3,000 yuan to the other party according to the card number and the other party's name on the bank card, and then returned the bank card to the other party.

Then, a text message rang.

The woman took out the old-fashioned keypad feature phone and checked it, and her face instantly showed a strong sense of gratitude: "Little brother, thank you so much, don't worry... No matter what, we will return the money to you."

Su Yu nodded slightly, said nothing more, opened the door and walked into his room, and then closed the door with his backhand.

The woman's words just now reminded him of his parents and also made him feel a little compassionate, so he helped out.

A few thousand yuan is just a drop in the bucket for him now.

Even if he can't get the money back in the end, it won't have any impact on him.

"Anke Construction Company!"

Su Yu muttered to himself, turned on the computer, and began to search for various relevant information and wage arrears about this company on the Internet.

However...

In the end, except for some new project announcements undertaken by Anke Construction, there was no information about wage arrears, and no information indicating that Anke Construction's capital chain was tight.

"Compared with last year, the number of projects undertaken by this construction company and the number of projects under construction have increased significantly!"

After Su Yu learned the preliminary information, he said to himself: "This proves that the capital advance of this construction company has probably increased by more than one order of magnitude compared with last year."

In Su Yu's impression, there seem to be four construction companies under the Kumho Group.

Among them, the size of Anke Construction is similar to that of Tianhong Construction headed by Sun Tianhong. This magnitude of business growth is more like a vicious expansion, which is very abnormal.

For construction companies with heavy capital accumulation.

Rapid expansion beyond their own capabilities will inevitably bring pressure on the capital chain, and even a careless move will lead to a direct collapse of the capital chain.

The general manager of Anke Construction Company, like Sun Tianhong, is an old man of Kumho Group. He has been in the construction industry for many years and is very experienced.

Su Yu does not believe the other party, and the core senior management of Anke Construction does not understand this truth.

Since you understand...

Logically speaking, such a business development form seems very strange. It is either a helpless and passive choice, or it is intentional.

Su Yu analyzed the historical business development of Anke Construction and found that this company, except for the random expansion in the past six months, has always been steady and steady.

It can be said that according to its historical development trajectory.

In the case that the general manager has not been replaced, there is no motivation to passively change the business strategy from conservative to radical due to internal pressure.

In this way, after excluding passive transformation, only active intentional transformation remains.

At the current stage, the entire domestic real estate situation is in a relatively depressed stage under the regulation of the national macroeconomic policy. Even from a forward-looking development perspective, it is not suitable for related industrial companies to carry out radical business expansion at this time. This can be seen from the normal business of Tianhong Construction, Tianchen Construction Company, and Chengyuan Construction Company, which are all subsidiaries of Kumho Group.

Therefore, Su Yu thinks that the so-called forward-looking layout of the company's senior management in business pursuit can also be excluded.

It is neither a forced transformation under the pressure of the group and internal pressure, nor a forward-looking and proactive layout under the premise of macro judgment, so...

Su Yu combined with the development demands of Kumho Group to strive for listing.

It is speculated that Anke Construction is mostly deliberately expanding viciously, deliberately pushing its performance and business to the extreme edge, thereby affecting the group's listing strategy.

In other words, this should be an internal struggle of Kumho Group.

With limited information, Su Yu can only make a rough guess based on the vague memories of later generations in his mind. As for whether it is right or wrong in the end, it can only be verified later.

Thinking of this...

Su Yu remembered Sun Tianhong and Yang Hao's expressions when talking about Chairman Yang of Kumho Group.

It seems that the two of them don't like and respect this helmsman of Kumho Group, who can be said to be very close to them.

Su Yu also thought of Shi Yuling's foreign friend, Ivana's sister's disappearance, which seemed to be related to Kumho Group. He couldn't help but sigh: "It seems... Kumho Group is not ordinary deep!"

In the original trajectory, that is, before his rebirth.

Before Kumho Group became the leading real estate company in Zhejiang Province, Su Yu didn't know much about this group, so in his memory, he only had a general and vague memory of the various things of Kumho Group during this period. He didn't know much, and naturally couldn't rely on his memory to delve into the foundation of this group.

It's just...

He didn't expect that after his rebirth, his involvement with this group seemed to be getting deeper and deeper.

Of course, if he had no choice, he would never get involved in this deep water. After all, for him now... simply making money is more important than anything else.

Thinking of this...

Su Yu sorted out his thoughts and turned his attention to stock research and other investment opportunities in the international financial market.

In the evening, Su Yu was preparing to go out for dinner.

The middle-aged couple who shared the house with him and worked on the construction site had specially prepared a table of dishes after they came back from get off work, wanting to thank him and invite him to eat together.

Su Yu looked at the two simple people and did not refuse.

So, the three of them sat on the shabby folding table in the house, each opened a bottle of beer, and chatted.

The man was very talkative and optimistic.

He told Su Yu about many things he had experienced in the past few years.

And Su Yu, through him, learned more about Anke Construction Company and became more convinced of his guess.

The next day, Monday, April 29, the stock market reopened.

After two days of emotional brewing and many positive news, the Shanghai Index, Shenzhen Index, and ChiNext Index all opened slightly higher.

Among them, the stocks that Su Yu paid attention to and held.

Under the influence of the sentiment of the market opening high, Netspeed Technology opened flat and quickly rose, and once again hit the 40 yuan mark; while Huaqingbao, as Su Yu predicted, opened sharply higher due to the good performance, and then quickly plunged and fell step by step, killing many short-term retail investors who chased in at high positions.

After 10:30...

The bullish sentiment in the morning was exhausted, and the index began to fall slowly.

And the popular stock of Netspeed Technology, after barely touching the 40 yuan mark, rose again and fell, falling into a violent shock mode.

Su Yu stared at the changes in the two markets without any action.

Before the May Day holiday, the overall funds in the market were tight. Su Yu guessed that whether it was the market or individual stocks, there would not be much market, and most of them would be shock adjustments.

And the opportunity for adjusting positions and changing stocks that he was waiting for did not come.

So, there is no need to act frequently.

At 11 o'clock, near the midday trading, the trading situation of the two cities began to slow down further and fell into a state of sideways fluctuation. The whole market was sparsely hot, and only a few small-cap stocks with good performance received the attention of funds and appeared slightly active.

Su Yu stared at such a market, feeling a little drowsy.

So, he couldn't help but cut out the interface and began to browse the posts of major stock trading forums.

At 11:24, when the market was about to close, Su Yu suddenly received a call from Yang Hao, who said that he had opened an account at Huashang Securities and injected 7 million yuan of funds.

After that, he hung up the phone and sent the trading account and password to Su Yu by text message.

Su Yu tried to log in, and sure enough, he saw 7 million yuan of available funds lying quietly in the account.

"Brother Su, work hard. This is the pocket money I saved for two years. I originally wanted to use it to customize a Lamborghini. Now I'm handing it over to you." Yang Hao sent a message to Su Yu, saying, "You have to turn it into a Bugatti Veyron by the end of the year!"
