Lu Fan chuckled softly. This idea was truly tactful. If he didn't know the truth, he probably would have believed the other party.
Especially from the time he came in until now, the acting skills he displayed back then are something that most people can't do.
"Is what you're saying true, Mr. Wang? Perhaps our group could delay things a little. Cooperation is something that should be mutually beneficial for everyone."
Hearing this, President Wang seemed a little embarrassed. He looked at Lu Fan and paused, remaining silent for a long time.
He now hated the lie he had just woven; what should have been a simple matter had been made so complicated.
"Mr. Lu, to be honest, our superiors are planning to terminate our contract with your company. Recently, a steel mill has offered to supply us with raw materials. Their price is 30% lower than yours, and because of this, the company is considering costs, which is why we have no choice..."
Lu Fan smiled slightly. Although it was erotic, he had expected it long ago, but as a person, one should still have feelings.
Moreover, it is not difficult to see from the information that the two companies have been cooperating for quite some time.
“I understand everything, but I’ve heard that although the raw materials from that company are cheap, the quality isn’t very high.”
I advise you to reconsider carefully. If you don't want the contract anymore, we can talk again anytime!
Lu Fan maintained a friendly tone throughout.
Even though he is the chairman of the group, he still has no airs whatsoever.
This action made Wang Tian, who was standing to the side, feel somewhat ashamed. After cooperating for so long, they had just had a few words that caused some unpleasantness.
Although he secretly wanted to continue the collaboration, his company couldn't say otherwise.
"I understand what Mr. Lu is doing, but unfortunately, I can't turn things around on my own."
The other side came with great force this time, causing considerable impact on the entire materials sector. I've heard that there have been significant changes in some raw materials and rare metals.
Lu Fan frowned slightly upon hearing this, as he knew very well that most of these metals were imported from overseas.
After some simple processing, and sometimes some more sophisticated techniques, they can become materials.
If this influx of low-priced goods isn't an attempt to lose money, then there must be something wrong with the raw materials.
He recalled that the Simon family had been going overseas very frequently recently, and that these products were indeed inexpensive in some places abroad.
Thinking about all these possibilities, he suddenly realized what the other party was smuggling. Under normal circumstances, this stuff would really not be discovered.
"If there is an opportunity to cooperate again in the future, Mr. Wang, it is not too late. Things change over time, and our Jiang Group will not change because of this setback."
Upon hearing this, President Wang could only sigh. After terminating the contract, he told Lu Fan that if he were to gain power in the future, he would definitely return what originally belonged to them.
But Lu Fan was too grateful to the other party. If it weren't for the other party's words, which completely enlightened him, he would have been completely free of doubt.
He's probably still in the dark; it's obvious that the industries the other side is targeting are steel and materials.
These two are fundamental to many studies and processes; they are indispensable!
Considering all these circumstances, solving these problems isn't that difficult.
"Mr. Wang, even if the deal falls through, we can still be on good terms. From now on, if you ever need anything, please feel free to come to our group."
After watching Mr. Wang leave, the atmosphere became increasingly tense, especially considering the problems that had arisen between the two sides.
Lu Fan glanced at the two people below who had just offered their opinions, and secretly noted down their identities.
Then everyone started discussing it amongst themselves, but faced with the absolute price, it seemed like everything they did was in vain.
Based on what we've learned so far, Lu Fan only learned from the crowd that the steel mill where the other party works has slightly lower quality steel, but otherwise they are almost on par with each other.
Although some are of slightly lower quality, it doesn't really matter.
After the meeting ended, Lu Fan immediately called Zhang Fan over.
"Regarding this steel plant, can you help me investigate the raw material supply chain used here and the changes that have occurred over this period of time? Investigate everything thoroughly."
Zhang Fan frowned slightly as he looked at the documents in his hand. This was the territory of the Ximen family, although it wasn't particularly difficult.
But they are not to be trifled with now.
"I had some contact with the Ximen family about this place before, and I originally planned to abandon it."
Recently, something seems to have suddenly happened, bringing this company, which was on the verge of bankruptcy, back to life, leading to the current situation.
Lu Fan nodded slightly. He had already taken care of most of the matter, and now that the company's stock was rising, it was seen as having great potential by most people.
Zhang Fan knew perfectly well that the other party would never lie to him, and that what they said was most likely true.
With all these factors combined, the situation is very clear, but there is no concrete breakthrough.
"Could you help me determine the quality of the materials and other items they are currently using?"
Now he's almost there, and he wants to see how the other party's quality compares to theirs.
If their quality is also better than theirs, then this is just a disruptive move!
"Boss, I understand. I'll arrange for people to do it right away. And regarding that village, tonight is the final step. Tonight, the other side wants the entire construction team to cause a huge disturbance, and not only that..."
They were planning a fight with the villagers. I heard they were discussing causing deaths!
Hearing this, Lu Fan frowned. If someone died in an accident at the construction site, it would be no small matter.
Moreover, once the news gets out, it will have a significant impact on them, making it almost impossible for the entire construction site to continue.
That's amazing! That move is absolutely brilliant!
If this were to actually succeed, it would be a case of someone reaping the benefits without lifting a finger.
“I know about this matter. We absolutely cannot allow them to have even the slightest accident, otherwise it will cause problems if this project falls through.”
Lu Fan frowned slightly. He planned to go and see for himself tonight to find out what had happened.
"I'll go arrange for people to take control of the villagers or the construction site, at least to separate both sides before a fight breaks out."
This was also Lu Fan's idea. Although it wouldn't be difficult to stop this scene, it's always better to be prepared for any eventuality.
With Liu Shang's involvement, he felt that the other party would definitely stop at nothing to achieve their goal.
Although the matter was thwarted before, the other party remembered it all.
