Often, when the cash flow is cut off, a company can go bankrupt in an instant.
Wang Wei nervously calculated the amount of repatriated funds held back by Botai and the other three companies, and felt that it had reached a warning level. She immediately said to Lu Fan:
"Mr. Lu, how about we postpone this shipment for a while?"
Lu Fan slowly shook his head.
For him, money has never been an issue. His only worry now is whether this is a tactic Shengjing Company is using to deal with him.
Lu Fan thought to himself, but he also reacted quickly to Wang Wei's words: "Delaying orders is not a good thing. If the other party is prepared, won't they find out if we delay?"
"If the other party is just distributing goods and it's just a normal business transaction, wouldn't delaying the order seriously offend the distributor?"
In short, neither left nor right works!
Watching the logistics trucks being loaded and driven out of the factory area one by one, Wang Wei was so anxious she was practically jumping up and down:
"Oh dear, what should we do now?"
While Wang Wei was worrying, Lu Fan was already thinking about how to handle the matter.
Unlike Wang Wei, who is in charge of the sales department.
Lu Fan was far more aware of the current situation and overall picture of the soy sauce factory than Wang Wei was.
Since he took over the soy sauce factory, the investment has far exceeded the returns. Although live-streaming sales and supply to several large supermarkets are ongoing.
However, no matter which supply line it is, it doesn't generate payments so quickly.
In other words, a significant portion of Lu Fan's funds and goods are tied up in the supply chain.
This situation was unfamiliar not only to Wang Wei, but even to Lu Fan.
"Sigh, we can only blame our soy sauce factory for developing too fast."
In just over a month, the supply has already exceeded capacity twice.
Such explosive sales naturally put greater pressure on working capital compared to companies that follow a more methodical approach.
Lu Fan still remembered his previous intuition theory, thinking that regardless of whether the funds flowed back or not, it would be good to use this time to test these companies.
So he directly instructed Wang Wei:
“You were the one who followed up on the previous cooperation with Dayong and the other three companies. You were familiar with the contract terms and the agents.”
"Let's try mentioning it to them first, and see if they can transfer part of our payment in advance?"
Wang Wei was both anxious and worried about the financial pressure. Hearing Lu Fan's praise, it was as if she suddenly felt certain, and she said in alarm:
"Mr. Lu, are we going bankrupt? The cash flow is really having problems?"
Lu Fan almost choked on her words and quickly stopped himself:
"What are you talking about? How did you go bankrupt?!"
Then he explained it to Wang Wei in detail:
"We haven't received any 'response' from Shengjing Company. Are they retaliating, or have they simply forgotten about it?"
"I've had a bad feeling about what happened with these distributors. Now that you have an opportunity, don't you want to test them a bit?"
Prevention is always better than cure. Wang Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief after Lu Fan's explanation. She patted her chest and said:
"Thank goodness we didn't go bankrupt. You scared me to death! Mr. Lu, please don't speak so dramatically next time. You made me think our factory was out of money."
Although my cousin Sun Dehu always said that President Lu was rich and wouldn't go bankrupt.
But Wang Wei, who was by Lu Fan's side, knew exactly how he invested.
Leaving aside what happened at the factory, just look at what she saw in Lü Qiuyi's mountain of acquisition contracts.
The investment has probably already exceeded one billion.
Wang Wei swore she might never see so much money in her lifetime.
Lu Fan had only just arrived in Nanshan City when he poured so much money into this massive undertaking.
Sometimes Wang Wei even felt that the reason her uncle, Wang Mingtang, was the matchmaker for Lu Fan was because of this.
It was also because of Lu Fan's generosity that he was practically a living money bag.
Now that Wang Wei had no more questions, and watching the logistics trucks rushing to and fro, she asked:
"Should we continue shipping this?"
Lu Fan nodded: "You should continue communicating with them too."
Upon receiving the order, Wang Wei busied herself sending messages to the representatives of those companies to build relationships.
Wang Wei was quite familiar with these matters.
No sooner had Wang Wei left than Xiao Li from the purchasing department came with a note asking Lu Fan for his instructions:
"Mr. Lu, this is a payment reminder from the grain bureau. The payment for this month's goods hasn't been approved yet."
Lu Fan gestured for the other person to take it to him and casually asked:
"How's the coordination with the grain bureau going?"
Xiao Li laughed and said, "Smooth sailing, how could it not go smoothly?"
Every time he lost two or three thousand at the card table, the grain bureau was "generous" in giving the soy sauce factory the best quality raw materials.
After asking some questions about delivery, Lu Fan sent Xiao Li away.
I thought the matter was over.
Unexpectedly, the next day, while Lu Fan was holding a video conference at home, Sisi and Daxiong, who were in charge of the live broadcast, were the first to approach him.
Lu Fan then instructed the senior management of Jingrui Group to hold a meeting first.
