Even so, it is fair to say that HNA's "flight attendant" service is very good, very "eye-catching", and it is still one of the few excellent airlines in China. What is sad is that for a long time, it may be difficult for Hai airline sister to see the chairman Chen Feng who twisted the Buddha bead in his hand in the cabin.

The Buddha said, "The past mind is unattainable, the present mind is unattainable, and the future mind is unattainable." "Settle in the moment, and don't be attached." Chen Feng, the chairman of HNA, a 58-year-old believer in Buddhism and keen on practicing tantra and Lao Zhuang, chanted all day long about "coming out of the world and joining the world", and when he spat out "good self-made" from his mouth two years ago, he may also know that he is lost and it is difficult to return.

Chen Feng, chairman of HNA Group, was suspected of violating the law and was taken compulsory measures according to law, as the old saying goes: those who come out of the mix always have to pay back!

Among them, there are two points that have attracted the most attention from the outside world: (1) After the reorganization, the rights and interests of the old shareholder team and cihang foundation in HNA Group and member enterprises will be completely cleared and will no longer have relevant equity. (2) After the reorganization, HNA will be split into four sectors for independent operation, and each will return to the healthy development of its main business. If the bankruptcy reorganization is successfully completed, HNA will split the reorganization into four completely independent operating sectors - aviation sector, airport sector, financial sector, commercial and other sectors, with the shareholders of each free new actual controller leading the way forward and being completely independent of each other.

The "aviation section" dominated by "HNA Holdings", the "airport section" based on "HNA Foundation", the "financial sector" dominated by "Bohai Leasing", and the commercial and other sectors dominated by "supply and marketing collection" will have "new owners" at that time; after the old shareholders have all withdrawn, each section is independently operated, and there are also "new owners", from a certain point of view, the hustle and bustle of Hainan Group may withdraw from the jianghu.

At present, there are only two members of the management team introduced on the official website of HNA Group, one is Li Xianhua, vice chairman of the board of directors of HNA Group Co., Ltd., and the other is Sun Mingyu, chairman of the board of supervisors of HNA Group Co., Ltd., chairman of the board of directors and secretary general of Hainan Cihang Public Welfare Foundation.

Chen Feng, founder and chairman of HNA Group

"Have you ever thought about monastic practice?" Chen Feng, founder and chairman of HNA Group, replied three years ago. "I'm still in trouble, I owe so much money to the bank and still haven't paid it back." Chen Feng, known as "a business fighter holding a Buddha bead", began to believe in Buddhism at the age of 58, especially keen on tantra and Lao Zhuang, and usually has a string of Buddha beads in his hand.

Chen Feng learned Buddhism, HNA Group also once "Buddha culture" prevailed, according to Chen Feng's introduction, the architectural shape of the HNA headquarters building in Haikou is a Buddha statue sitting cross-legged, and the headquarters lobby is enshrined with a tall wood carved Buddha statue, and even the back of the HNA captain's badge is also printed with a Buddha statue. For a while, when HNA employees met with customers, they would also give gifts together. It is said that whenever Chen Feng is quiet in the middle of the night, he must meditate and meditate, and even when he takes a plane, he does not forget to meditate cross-legged.

Holding the Buddha beads, Chen Feng was "born" and "joined the world", and now that he has been taken compulsory measures, he should know what "like a dream bubble" is. In the past, someone asked Chen Feng, is he a Buddha or a fighter? He argued, "Manjushri Bodhisattva is wise and courageous in his left hand with a sutra in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. ”

With the passage of time, chen Feng, who is currently restricted in his freedom, can truly understand the true meaning of Manjushri's "sword of wisdom": "Cut off my five aggregates of troubles and demons, and make me quickly give birth to great wisdom." ”

Chen Feng

Chen Feng, born in June 1953 in Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi Province, later called his "name" "Taisheng"; when he was 2 years old, his father Chen Xifan went to Beijing to work, and the family went to Beijing. Chen Feng's ancestral home is Shangsanjiao Village, Sanjiao Township, Huozhou City, Shanxi, his father Chen Xifan is from Huozhou, and his mother is also from Shanxi, a native of Yuncheng Xiezhou.

According to his original vision of retirement at the age of 65, but the plan could not keep up with the changes, another HNA group co-founder and former chairman Wang Jian died suddenly in France, Chen Feng returned to the front line of management.

Chen Feng himself broke the news that he has stepped into the civil aviation circle since he was 16 years old, and more than 50 years later, Chen Feng, now 68 years old, may not have a chance with the civil aviation circle in the future, and HNA Group is no longer his "home world".

Chen Feng, who claims to use the Buddhist scriptures as a guide every day and must be called "cause and effect," needs to be further observed to what extent and how serious his suspected violation of the law has been.

After Wang Jian's unexpected death, Chen Feng, who had retired for two years, came out of the mountains again, he drastically adjusted the management of HNA, more than 200 executives reused by former chairman Wang Jian were dismissed, and his son Chen Xiaofeng, in just two years, was promoted from M5 employees to director and president of HNA Group like a helicopter, so HNA is regarded as "home world", can the company be good? Can the cohesion of the human heart be high?

According to a previous report by China Economic Weekly, the tree map of HNA Group's equity relationship combed out has three sheets of nearly three meters long each, and "the largest number of equity relationship levels is as many as 7 layers." HNA Group will fall into the point of bankruptcy reorganization and insolvency, is there anyone in the middle of this "big transfer" of wealth?

Chen Feng's son, Chen Xiaofeng, was born in 1979, grew up abroad since childhood, and after returning from the United States, he was appointed as an assistant to Wang Jian, the chairman of HNA Group at that time. In August 2018, he was promoted to Deputy CEO of HNA Group and joined the Board of Directors in September. It is worth mentioning that Chen Feng's nephew Chen Chao has also been appointed as the chief investment officer of HNA Group. Chen Chao is the son of Chen Guoqing, Chen Feng's younger brother.

As the saying goes, "three generations of wealth are not enough", in order to ensure the longevity of the foundation, it is understandable to arrange a relay of generations. However, Chen Feng quickly helped his son to the position under the dangerous situation of HNA, which is not very reasonable in grasping the time node.

HNA is overwhelmed, although it has its own buying, buying and buying "plus leverage" crazy expansion and other crux of the problem, but at the level of corporate governance, there are many problems, but also to many enterprises sounded a wake-up call.
