Three days later, after Simingda and Wang Mudan confirmed that the deposit in US dollars had arrived, they were overjoyed. This deposit was like a ray of sunshine after a long period of rain, sweeping away the haze that had accumulated in their hearts and bringing them light and hope. Simingda seemed to have taken stimulants and quickly recovered his original mental state. The order he had been looking forward to had finally become a nail in the stone, and there was no need to worry about any unexpected changes anymore.
In order to promote the smooth progress of this project, Si Mingda and Wang Mudan specially convened a meeting of the company's management cadres.
Simingda looked at the attendees excitedly and said, "I've called everyone here today to make an important announcement. Our company suffered a disaster some time ago. For me, it was an unprecedented disaster. I won't go into the details. After more than half a year of adjustment, I feel much better, and the company's business is gradually getting back on track.
I recently negotiated with a major client. After several adjustments, our contract has been confirmed. They paid a deposit yesterday, totaling over 500,000 RMB (US dollars). It's rare to place such a large order for the first time."
Simingda's face was filled with unconcealed joy, and his colleagues present were also delighted, applauding enthusiastically and expressing their congratulations: "Wow! That's great!"
The enthusiastic and cheerful atmosphere among his colleagues gave Simingda great encouragement. His voice trembled with excitement as he said with great enthusiasm, "Now that we have received the customer's deposit, we have to start production according to the contract. Xiao Liu, as the source, will send the internal order notification to the Planning Department, Purchasing Department, and Production Department as soon as possible. The relevant units must purchase materials according to the order requirements. The Engineering Department and the Quality Department will strictly control the quality. If there are any problems, please raise them in time. Since the balance is paid by letter of credit and the delivery period is limited to three months, we must not delay the delivery date. Otherwise, it will cost a lot of money to modify the letter of credit, and the procedures will be very complicated. In order to avoid mistakes, we must control every link in the early stage and strive to deliver the goods within three months. We can receive the balance payment after sending the documentary collection documents. To successfully complete this order, we need the full cooperation of everyone present. I hope that everyone will work together with the greatest passion and the most beautiful attitude to successfully complete this order and recover the losses our company suffered some time ago, okay?"
"good!"
Looking at his subordinates bursting with passion, Simingda felt very pleased. He had run the factory for ten years, and fortunately had these loyal subordinates to help him, making his business bigger and bigger. They stayed with him when he encountered difficulties some time ago, and he has always been grateful to them.
"The company's operations rely on your support, especially when I encountered difficulties. You have always stood by me, which is very touching. I promise today that as long as this order is completed and the final payment is received smoothly, I will give each person a year-end bonus of 1-3 months based on their seniority at the end of the year. I mean what I say. Please give your full supervision and devote yourself to the work with full passion. Okay?"
"good!"
For workers, salary increases and year-end bonuses are the most sensitive and motivating terms. When Simingda's subordinates heard their boss had secured a large order and would be giving them year-end bonuses, they were all incredibly excited, rushing to voice their opinions: "To avoid delivery delays, the salesperson needs to issue the order as soon as possible."
“Engineering must provide prepared drawings to avoid mistakes during the production process.”
"Purchasing must keep up with the supplier's material progress. Once the materials arrive, the planning department will start arranging production."
"This order is large, and payment is by letter of credit. The quality department must strictly control quality, including process inspections and finished product inspections. If quality problems are discovered after shipment, the customer will refuse to pay the letter of credit, which will result in huge losses."
Wang Mudan was also very happy with the passionate discussion of her colleagues. She and Si Mingda had suffered such a great disaster out of the blue, and now they finally received a big order. She had never felt so comfortable as today. She hoped that the order from this big customer could wash away the humiliation they suffered last time and inject new vitality into Mingdan Company.
Wang Mudan smiled gracefully and said, "Dear colleagues, I'm very happy for your support of the company. Mr. Si has just made a promise, and I reiterate it here. As long as this batch of goods is shipped smoothly and we collect the payment safely and without error, the year-end bonus that Mr. Si promised will be fully paid. After this meeting, everyone should follow your respective division of labor and fully support this batch of new orders to ensure smooth production. Okay?"
"OK."
While Simingda and Wang Mudan were busy arranging the production, Gao Huai was always feeling nervous. Compared to their excitement, he was in a very low mood. In order to implement this extremely risky dark contract, he had already invested more than 100,000 US dollars. If he could achieve the goal as scheduled, it would be nice for him to get his investment back.
What he was worried about was the long delivery cycle of this shipment. If something went wrong during the process, his investment would be wasted. In order to ensure that everything was foolproof, he had been personally following up on the progress of the project since paying the deposit.
From time to time, he asked Xiao Liu to send some pictures and videos so that he could accurately grasp the dynamics of Mingdan Company. On the other hand, he also had to strictly prevent Li Xiaoliang from having private contact with Si Mingda, for fear that he would let the cat out of the bag.
In fact, Li Xiaoliang had long suspected that Gao Huai and Si Mingda had an unusual relationship. He asked Gao Huai several times, but was scolded every time. He was so scared that he never dared to ask about his boss's private affairs again, but he still had deep doubts in his heart.
He didn't understand cross-border trade and had no idea how Gao Huai arranged shipments and payments, so he didn't realize whether there were any signs of fraud in the contract.
