Chapter 235 A pot of boiling water! (!)
At this time, Su Tianran's mobile phone vibrated. Looking at the number, his face suddenly became solemn.
However, because a family meeting was being held at this time, the old man hated others to answer his mobile phone when he was at the meeting, and Su Tianran had to hang up the phone.
However, what he didn't expect was that after hanging up three times in a row, the mobile phone was still tenaciously vibating and buzzing. It seemed that there was really something urgent on the other party.
"Pup." Mr. Su nodded.
Su Tianran heard the words and pressed the answer button.
"No, there was a big explosion in the diamond mine, and all the tunnels collapsed and all were landfilled!"
Su Tianran heard the words and hung up the phone directly. His hand holding the mobile phone slowly slid down his cheek and could not see his expression.
At this time, the hall was quiet, and all the Su family did not make a sound, because they all felt a different smell from Su Tianran's expression, as if something big was going to happen.
However, Su Qingli, Su Tianya and others showed a look of gloating. They knew that the more unfavorable the news was for Su Tianran, the more beneficial it would be for them. If Su Tianran will step down as a result, then Su Tianya may become the biggest vested interest.
"What's going on?" Mr. Su asked.
"It's nothing." Su Tianran was silent for a moment and felt that such news would cause panic at this time, but he still did not tell the truth.
"Oh, Brother Tianran, there's nothing to say. We are all our own people." Su Tianya immediately said.
"That's right, Tianran, let's tell everyone if there is news. Even if it's bad news, we can work together, can't we?" Su Qing Li also said with the mood of watching jokes.
Su Tianran is still silent.
"Tian Ran, brothers and sisters are right. If you have anything to say, let's help you figure it out together." Su Fudan, Su Tianran's second grandfather, said.
Su Tianran raised his face with an unspeakable emotion in his eyes. He sighed and said, "The South African diamond mine has been blown up. At present, the cause of the explosion is unknown."
Boom!
Su Tianran's words fell into everyone's ears, undoubtedly like a blockbuster smashing into the calm sea, stirring up waves!
Although he lost Zhongding gas and injured the root bone of the Su family before, due to the confidentiality of the information, most of them can only rely on speculation, and it is not certain that Zhongding has changed hands overnight. However, the news of the explosion of the diamond mine was really from Su Tianran's mouth, and there will definitely be no fake.
Everyone was silent and was still chewing and digesting the shock brought by the news.
The political factor is one aspect of Su's three diamond brands that have been able to stand in China for so many years. One of the most important reasons is that they own a diamond mine in South Africa.
Unlike other brands, Sujia can achieve a one-stop mining, processing and sales in South Africa, which naturally reduces many unnecessary costs in the supply chain. In this way, the overall cost of the three major brands is more than half lower than that of other brands! In the past, their prices were always a little lower than those of the rest of the brands, and it was just a little bit, which became the cornerstone of the best-selling of the three major brands. It was completely unrealistic and unrealistic for the other diamond brands to fight a price war with the Su family.
However, recently, a phantom diamond has emerged. In just a few months, it quickly seized the Chinese luxury market with overwhelming advertising and ultra-low prices, and defeated the traditional three major brands. Such a lightning marketing war has been revenue In textbooks, it is preached in college classrooms as a classic case.
The reason why Magic Diamond has such capital and confidence to fight a price war with the Su family is the same, because they also have diamond mines in South Africa!
Moreover, in the face of the situation of phantom crystal diamond, which has to fight hard, in order to avoid greater losses, the three major brands collectively contracted their defense lines and ceded their positions to others.
"Just kidding, the South African diamond mine has been mined for so many years and has never happened. How can it be blown up today?" Su Tianqi finally found excitedly that because of this shocking news, everyone turned their attention from themselves to Su Tianran! Maybe because the diamond mine in South Africa was destroyed, I can escape!
"You bastard, it's not your turn to talk here!" Su Nanguo was so angry that he kicked out again and kicked his little son on the ground.
The hall of Lixin Manor is very quiet, and everyone dares not go out. Even a needle falling on the ground can be heard, as if waiting for the storm.
"The diamond mine was bombed..." Mr. Su Fuhua was not surprisingly angry, but was silenced by this shocking news for a long time before he said in a low voice: "The guard is so strict that it can still be bombed. It seems that the other party is very professional."
Su Tianran also nodded: "It should be done by mercenaries or retired special forces."
"Retired special forces?" Su Fuhua looked up and a spiritual light crossed his mind: "Is it..."
Su Fuhua did not say the remaining two words, but Su Fudan and Su Fulian nodded silently.
All three old people know what happened in those years and understand what those two words mean.
Is it possible that besides Wang Zheng, there are still people in the first generation of dragon scales who successfully broke through in that siege? Otherwise, how could the diamond mine be blown up so strangely this time?
The hero lost millions to the first team of dragon scales, which is the common view of Su Fuhua and others. They have all seen with their own eyes how powerful the most mysterious army in the history of the Republic of China is. They are all participants from the beginning to its destruction.
Dragon scales are the strongest fighting power of the Republic, which is the dream of a generation of Chinese soldiers. However, when Su Fuhua changed from a soldier to a politician, he had forgotten the original mission established by Longlin and just wanted to hold this national combat power in his own hands.
Su Fudan's voice is also low: "If it is really the remnant of the dragon scales, then we must get rid of it, otherwise the wildfire will not burn out and the spring breeze will blow again."
At this time, Su Qing's voice sounded: "Tian Ran, why have you been defeated again and again? Zhongding is defeated by you, and the three major diamond brands are also in danger. Without the raw material source of the diamond mine, they may close down at any time. Dividends have been reduced by 80% at the end of the year. So it seems that if our industry continues to be in your hands, will we face losses next year?
At this time, Su Qing Li stood up and was the first to accuse Su Tianran, who also aimed the whole incident at the future successor of the Su family.
In fact, what Su Qing Li said at this time was also the heart of many children of the Su family. Among them, no one is jealous of Su Tianran's position as the heir. Everyone wants to replace him, but he has suffered from no opportunity. Mr. Su has always trusted Su Tianran, and no one dares to put forward such an idea similar to rebellion in front of him.
However, when Su Tianran announced that everyone would cut dividends by 80%, these people who had been waiting for a long time knew that the opportunity had come.
Hearing Su Qing Li's words, Su Tianran just snorted coldly and didn't look at her.
In the past, if Su Fuhua had heard such words, he would be furious, but at this time, he narrowed his eyes and raised his head and looked at Su Qing Li. His two non-turbid eyes were shred, as if he wanted to examine Su Qing Li's inner thoughts clearly.
Su Qing Li also felt a little nervous when she was looked at by Mr. Su. However, since she stood up at this time, she could not retreat at all. The opportunity was fleeting and would only be left to those who were prepared and courageous. If Su Tianran could not be forced to step down this time, she might not wait until the year of the monkey in the future. Able to achieve the goal.
Therefore, Su Qing Li stood very straight, his eyes were very calm, and the nervous mood in his heart was well concealed.
Seeing that Su Fuhua did not speak, Su Tianran's heart began to sink little by little.
"I think Sister Qing Li is right." At this time, Su Tianya also took a step and stood beside Su Qingli: "If we really lose the Zhongding, the diamond mine in South Africa, and the main economic lifeline is cut off, then the Su family has undoubtedly reached a critical juncture, even if it is life and death. The Su family has fallen here in just half a year. I think someone needs to stand up and take responsibility for this matter.
Su Tianya said while looking at Su Tianran. The meaning of his words was obviously: "The responsibility should be borne by you."
Su Tianran did not have any rebuttal and said directly and coldly, "I am willing to take all responsibilities."
In fact, before Su Tianran, Mr. Su and his two sons had been presiding over all the work of the family. The Su family's industry was too concentrated, and they could obtain amazing astronomical figures with just one Zhongding gas every year. Coupled with the huge profits of the three major diamond brands, the Su family did not worry that they would have no money to spend. They never thought about what would happen if these two major industries were destroyed one day. Of course, they don't need to think about these useless things. Natural gas is the lifeblood resource of the country. With the influence of Mr. Su, no one has the courage to grab it.
However, the most unsatisfactory thing happened. Zhongding's equity agreement was stolen, 90% of the equity was transferred, and the white paper and red seal were clear, and there was no chance to deny it.
The year-end dividend plummeted by 80%, which was unacceptable to many people in the Su family. One day, they found that someone really dared to knock themselves down. Such a psychological gap is enough to defeat most people present at this time.
