Chapter 1532: Mo Xicheng Reinstated (5)
The finance department manager gulped and stammered, “C- CEO Mo—”
“I know you’ve been instructed by others, but if you’re not going to be honest with me, then I’ll have to teach you a lesson too.”
The finance department manager fell silent for a short while. Then he finally sighed and said, “Alright, CEO Mo, I’ll tell you the truth then! I did make the transfer, but the bank has rejected the transaction.”
Narrowing his eyes, Mo Xicheng asked, “Why?”
The finance department manager was silent for a while before he said, “Because the investment department’s account has got no money. So you can’t transfer any funds!”
Mo Xicheng widened his eyes in horror and looked at the other man in disbelief. “How could there be no funds?! Isn’t that fixed capital that cannot be just moved around?”
Why would they even expect him to strike a deal with Director Li if there were no funds?
Every company had fixed capital and circulating capital.
Since their company had recently started the TV and Film City project, having circulating capital was necessary.
Because that was the only way they could guarantee a source of funds when an investment opportunity came up.
When Mo Xicheng asked this, the finance department manager started to hem and haw, “Erm- I- I’m not sure about this myself, you need to give us some time. Once we have the circulating capital, we can fill this gap.”
Mo Xicheng sneered, “I checked the books before making the investment deal and I can confirm that the necessary funds were available. Manager Liu, now you’re telling me there’s no funds on the account, you must be joking?”
Manager Liu gulped and pleaded, “CEO Mo, please- please don’t make things difficult for me! It’s best that you ask CEO Mo Zhi. I’ve told you all that I can!”
Greatly infuriated, Mo Xicheng frowned.
Director Wang was merely giving face to Shen Liangchuan by helping Mo Xicheng. But now, because of the latter, the filming crew was having complications.
Mo Xicheng cast his gaze down and hung up.
He knew that Mo Zhi was behind all of this for sure. He could not believe for a moment that the company didn’t have funds.
It was all very clear on the books. Furthermore, although it was a huge film they were investing in, to the company, this was only a small part of the whole project. The key and overall project was really the establishment of the TV and Film City.
How could there be no circulating capital for such a significant project?
Hence now, Mo Zhi must have moved the funds to make things difficult for him, and also to get back at the filming crew.
Mo Xicheng narrowed his eyes and dialed Mo Zhi’s number.
The call remained unanswered after a few rings.
Mo Xicheng looked at his cell phone screen and clenched his fists.
He made another call to Director Wang. “Director Wang, I’m very sorry. I’m just on my way to the office. I will ensure that you get the funds within these few days. I’m grateful for your patience and tolerance.”
Director Wang answered, “Mo Xicheng, I trust you. Our filming crew awaits the clearing of this fund.”
“Yes, I understand.”
After he hung up, he sped the car to get to the office as quickly as possible.
It was only 8:30 a.m when he got to work.
He hurried to the reception and asked, “Is Mo Zhi at work yet?”
The receptionist answered, “Not yet.”
The man nodded and instructed, “Get him on the phone for me once he arrives.”
“Sure, CEO Mo.”
Mo Xicheng went to his office upstairs. He sat at his desk, burning with impatience.
