The half-truths and half-lies made Wei Daming dizzy with excitement.
Even Li Peiqiang, who was familiar with foreign brands, silently nodded in agreement, agreeing that Ye Beiping's words made a lot of sense.
First they refused, then they said there would be opportunities in the future.
These words gave Wei Daming and Li Peiqiang hope and dreams.
Now, neither of them cares whether Ye Beiping is telling the truth or lying, nor do they consider that Ye Beiping is deceiving them.
In fact, Ye Beiping didn't even own a company.
After all, such fraud against state-owned factories first appeared in the 1980s. In 1979, the self-important leaders of state-owned factories would never have thought that anyone would dare to cheat them.
Moreover, Ye Beiping wasn't exactly deceiving anyone; he just created a time lag. He will still fulfill the promises he makes in the future; it's just a matter of time.
Even if there were scams targeting state-owned factories, they were mostly small-scale operations. The real big incidents occurred during the economic reform era, when state-owned factories were defrauded of several million yuan. After this incident, most state-owned factories didn't take it seriously, but eventually, as more and more factories were scammed, it finally drew attention.
They started investigating their partners, fearing they might be scammers.
The most outrageous ones are a few swindlers in Shenzhen. They just made a few fake certificates and swindled a state-owned factory out of tens of millions of yuan worth of goods.
By the time the fraud was discovered, the swindlers had already vanished without a trace. In the end, the leadership of the state-owned factory went to jail and filed for bankruptcy before the case was finally closed.
Cough cough!
Li Peiqiang felt he was thinking too much, so he coughed twice to bring himself back to reality. The main thing now was to finish the orders in front of him and solve the factory's current predicament.
It must be said that experience counts. Even if Ye Beiping boasted wildly, Li Peiqiang wouldn't fall into the same illusions as Wei Daming, the newly appointed sales director.
“Mr. Ye, you said there was no prepayment, so how can we trust you?” Li Peiqiang still had basic awareness and was cautious.
Unexpectedly, Wei Daming directly undermined Li Peiqiang, saying, "Director Li, Mr. Jiang has already said that he will vouch for you in Wencheng, so what are you afraid of? If your Jiangnan Leather Factory is afraid, then our Wencheng No. 1 Leather Shoe Factory will take over."
"It's just some goods. Our First Leather Shoe Factory can afford to lose money. Doing business is all about integrity. If you're so timid, no wonder the products from Jiangnan Leather Factory can't be sold."
What a divine assist!
Ye Beiping's eyes lit up as he looked at Wei Daming.
Unexpectedly, this person gave me a divine assist, saving me the trouble of explaining.
“You…” Li Peiqiang really wanted to knock Wei Daming’s head open, but after calming down and remembering that Ye Beiping and Jiang Hai were still there, he could only patiently explain, “It’s not that our Jiangnan Leather Factory can’t afford to lose money, but Mr. Ye and Mr. Jiang didn’t say what the first batch of products needed or how much they needed.”
Ye Beiping had already thought about this issue, and the reason he invited people from both factories to come together today was for this purpose.
"We don't need many varieties of products for our trial sale, and the quantity is also small, only a thousand pairs. I've communicated with the company, and we'll start with the split leather products, but the trial sale price will definitely be the same as the price we pay for bulk orders later."
"We can't just sell the goods and then you tell us you can't sell them at that price, can we?"
"That's right, that's right." Before Li Peiqiang could say anything, Wei Daming nodded repeatedly with a grin: "Mr. Ye is right. A thousand pairs of shoes is not a problem. But what price would Mr. Ye like? If it's too low, I'll definitely have to apply to the factory manager."
Seeing Wei Daming's fawning smile, Li Peiqiang was furious and wanted to kick him out.
But now, if Li Peiqiang doesn't fight for Wei Daming, the deal might slip away.
"Yes, Mr. Ye, Mr. Jiang, what price are you looking for?"
Ye Beiping found it very interesting to watch the two directors of state-owned factories secretly competing with each other.
He thought for a moment, then held up one finger and said, "For the second-layer leather products, we will have 1,000 pairs of each style for trial sales, priced at 10 yuan per pair."
"What?" Li Peiqiang exclaimed in surprise, and even the way he looked at Wei Daming changed.
It was clear that the price Ye Beiping had offered had exceeded the limits of Jiangnan Leather Factory.
Wei Daming frowned and lowered his head to ponder.
The price they originally offered was lower than that of Jiangnan Leather Factory, and they had just promised Ye Beiping a discount of 1 yuan, which is equivalent to a purchase price of 11 yuan.
Now that Ye Beiping is saying ten yuan, it's not so hard for Wei Daming to accept; he just needs to go through a procedure and apply to the factory manager.
Seeing Li Peiqiang's surprise, Wei Daming skipped the application process and agreed, "Mr. Ye, ten yuan is no problem, I can agree to it right now."
"What?" Li Peiqiang exclaimed again, feeling that Wei Daming had really gone mad.
In order to compete with Jiangnan Leather Factory, Wei Daming really lost all sense of shame.
Even if it's a pair of split leather shoes, ten yuan a pair is almost the cost price.
Are you kidding me?
Wei Daming was very confident. He looked at Li Peiqiang and smiled coldly: "What, Director Li? Didn't your factory manager Hou give you this authority? Ten yuan isn't that hard to accept. At least the factory should still be making a profit, right?"
His confidence stemmed from his belief that his factory manager, Chen Jiong, would definitely agree to compete with Jiangnan Leather Factory. He also believed the manager would approve the price, because the goal was to bankrupt Jiangnan Leather Factory, a goal shared by all leather factories in Wenzhou.
Li Peiqiang was so angry that his chest heaved, and he gripped the cup next to him with his right hand, wishing he could crush it.
