Li Peiqiang is cutting off their escape route.
However, upon hearing Jiang Hai's words, Li Peiqiang flicked his sleeves and said, "Our Jiangnan Leather Factory will definitely pursue this matter to the end, otherwise our reputation will be ruined. The losses this would cause us would be incalculable."
"this......"
Jiang Hai stammered a couple of times, unsure of what to say. The truth was that they seemed to have gone a bit too far, using the reputation of a state-owned factory to promote themselves, which was inherently wrong.
Both sides fell silent instantly. Even Wei Daming, who wanted to offer some advice, didn't know how. After all, Ye Beiping and the others being arrested wasn't a good thing for the First Leather Shoe Factory. But he had gone a bit too far with his mockery earlier.
After a long while, Ye Beiping stepped forward with a chuckle.
"Okay, Jiang Hai, call the police and say that Xtep chain stores are defaming Jiangnan Leather Factory. We'll just sue them."
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned, not expecting Ye Beiping to be so tough.
Even Li Peiqiang was stunned. He glanced at Xu Yun, his eyes seemingly asking: "Isn't the script you just mentioned supposed to be like this? Shouldn't they be humble and subservient?"
Xu Yun frowned, wondering where Ye Beiping got his confidence from. He was truly an incomprehensible little brother.
After getting to know Ye Beiping in Wencheng and learning his purpose for going to Wencheng, I couldn't quite understand this young man.
"Beiping, is there any need to make a big fuss about this?"
"Manager Ye, perhaps we should apologize, since you were in the wrong first."
"Yes, we've finally made some progress, Beiping, don't be impulsive."
...
A group of people surrounded Ye Beiping and tried to persuade him, but he refused to budge no matter what.
Ye Beiping stared intently at Li Peiqiang and sneered, "Director Li, if I were to hire someone to argue this case, it might take six months to see any results. But you and I both know the situation at Jiangnan Leather Factory. They've been embroiled in legal disputes for six months just to prove your factory director's innocence. Do you think hundreds of employees would agree to that?"
Do the higher-ups agree?
That's right. Although the highest authority in a state-owned factory is the factory director, there are still people above the director to supervise him. It's not like a private factory director who can do whatever he wants.
While the advertising slogan appears to be a denigration of the Jiangnan Leather Factory, the truth is that it refers to the factory director alone.
"Director Li, you should think carefully about whether it is more important for a factory director to cause a factory to go bankrupt or to bear some criticism but be able to make the factory profitable again."
After saying this, Ye Beiping put his hands behind his back and left.
A group of people were left bewildered in the wind, especially Li Peiqiang.
I'm carefully considering Ye Beiping's words.
That makes some sense, but I feel like there's something wrong with it, though I can't quite figure it out right now.
At this moment, Wei Daming stepped forward and whispered to Li Peiqiang, "Old Li, this is something you and I only know. If the people who came to Hangzhou with us don't tell anyone, who will know?"
The logic seemed correct, but Li Peiqiang couldn't swallow his anger.
Judging from Ye Beiping's arrogant demeanor, as the head of the sales department of a state-owned factory, when had he ever been treated like this?
Now we have to swallow our anger and let others slander Jiangnan Leather Factory and its director.
This unpleasant inspection trip resulted in Li Peiqiang not leaving his room for a whole day.
It wasn't until evening that Ye Beiping and his group arrived at the state-run hotel, saying they wanted to treat everyone to dinner as an apology.
Upon learning this, Xu Yun immediately went to find Li Peiqiang.
"Director Li, Manager Ye said he's coming to invite us to dinner to apologize."
"Hmph." Upon hearing this, Li Peiqiang snorted coldly, "I'm not going."
Xu Yun was somewhat helpless and could only sit opposite Li Peiqiang and say, "Director Li, you know the situation of our factory. If we really fall out with Manager Ye and the others, it will not do us any good. Moreover, Manager Ye also said that if we get into a lawsuit, our factory may not be able to survive for more than half a year."
"Although the goods that Manager Ye took away before alleviated our factory's crisis, the price was so low that we made almost no profit and were just barely surviving."
Li Peiqiang let out a long sigh.
He was well aware of Xu Yun's meaning, but he was extremely angry at Ye Beiping's unreasonable behavior and his self-righteousness in doing wrong.
They didn't even know how to explain this to the factory manager.
They originally came here because they heard some rumors and were planning to investigate, but they didn't expect it to be Ye Beiping who caused all this trouble, putting him in a difficult position.
Seeing this, Xu Yun continued to persuade, "Director Li, the facts are already like this. A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years. We can take this opportunity to privately raise the purchase price with Manager Ye and the others. When we recover and are no longer under their control, it won't be too late to deal with it then."
