Chapter 69



When Li Cheng was chatting with the captain of the factory's guard team, Coach Lin, Coach Lin told him that the factory's products were not unsalable, but had been selling well.

But why has it reached this point? There are countless reasons. One key factor is that suppliers, unable to receive payment, have stopped supplying raw materials to the printing and dyeing factory. Furthermore, businesses that purchased the printing and dyeing factory's products, unable to supply them, have filed lawsuits for breach of contract.

In this way, with neither food nor food, the printing and dyeing factory starved to death. The fundamental reason for this situation was that the printing and dyeing factory had invested a large amount of funds in infrastructure and the purchase of luxury cars. According to Master Lin, the factory leaders also used the factory's money to indulge in extravagant food and travel.

Li Cheng believed what Coach Lin said was true. This was generally the path a company would take when it went from peak to trough. However, Li Cheng didn't include this in his business plan. He knew it was just superficial, a common problem for companies experiencing expansion.

The big guys knew more about this kind of thing than he did, so Li Cheng only wrote about the reasons that they didn't know or couldn't think of.

Li Cheng wrote in his plan that running a business is like sailing a ship. The business is like a giant ship sailing in the sea of ​​commerce. After sailing for a long time, barnacles will grow on the bottom of the hull, making the already old ship unable to bear the weight and eventually run aground on the beach.

Therefore, companies should regularly reduce the load and remove the barnacles attached to the ship. In this way, the ship can sail in the huge waves and still move forward with full power.

Of course, Li Cheng didn't forget to explain what these barnacles were. Honestly, this passage deeply touched the leaders. But what impressed them even more was Li Cheng's words about "blood turning into feces and urine."

However, although the bigwigs who attended this emergency meeting were impressed by the plan, no one except President Gao knew that the plan was Li Cheng's masterpiece.

This plan was submitted in the name of the branch, so everyone present thought it was created by President Gao, or President Gao and his subordinates.

It seemed as if Li Cheng had done something that was a scapegoat for others. In fact, this plan was unanimously approved by the leaders present at the meeting, and they decided on the spot to dispose of the printing and dyeing factory according to the plan mentioned in the plan.

In this way, Li Cheng's plan was one step closer to its goal. In this way, Li Cheng seemed to have made a profit.

But when Li Cheng learned that his plan was about to be implemented, he didn't feel happy at all. Although President Gao looked at him with admiration and love, Li Cheng was still unhappy.

Because he felt that if he didn't want to cause trouble, the problem of the printing and dyeing factory would not be difficult to solve.

He thought of the workers sitting on the ground that day, and the honest Master Hao, who came over specially afterwards, left two hundred yuan in the message room, and left, saying it was money for Li Cheng to repair his car.

These people are like this, always touching you when you least expect it. Of course, Li Cheng couldn't take the money. He put the money under the glass plate of his desk to remind himself that he should have a conscience and bottom line in his life.

Li Cheng found another envelope, put 500 yuan in it, and then kept it on his person. He would see them sooner or later, and when he saw them, Li Cheng would give the money to Master Hao.

The dyeing and printing factory only gave them a hundred or so yuan for living expenses, so life must have been tough. They say that when a bloody hemorrhage strikes, no snowflake is innocent. But that doesn't quite apply to these workers.

They were nominally the factory owners, but when had the bosses ever asked for their opinions? Yet after the avalanche, it was they who were crushed by the heavy snow.

Li Cheng sighed for a long time, then packed up his things and went to President Gao's office.

"Li Cheng, your proposal states that the printing and dyeing factory must be relocated outside the city. The city leaders have already agreed and have begun coordinating this matter. Also, your proposal of using a land premium to repay the debt has also been approved by them, but it's a bit difficult to implement. We'll probably have to wait a while before we see any results."

After hearing what President Gao said, Li Cheng said secretly: It won’t take long, because it was me who proposed this matter.

President Gao continued, "However, the printing and dyeing factory has a huge debt, and our branch is ranked last among the creditors. Even if we succeed in selling the land at a premium, we probably won't have enough money left to repay the loan."

At this point, President Gao sighed. Li Cheng, however, said in his heart: Don't be disappointed, this isn't the final moment yet!

"Alas! All the money I invested has gone down the drain. But it's better than the original plan. I won't fall into the same river twice."

President Gao's comment about falling into the same river twice referred to the original plan, which called for the branch to provide another loan to the company that took over the printing and dyeing factory. That company was in dire straits, and it was likely that the money would be wasted once again.

Seeing that President Gao was feeling discouraged, Li Cheng consoled him, saying, "Nothing is perfect in this world. The money is gone, and it's gone. The audit report already states that the bank's assets exceed its liabilities. Someone will always suffer. Unless..."

Li Cheng stopped talking and just looked at him.

"Unless what?"

“Unless the premium on the dyeing and printing factory’s land is high enough to pay off all the debts.”

Upon hearing this, President Gao shook his head repeatedly, wondering if it was possible. The land for the printing and dyeing factory was only assessed at six million yuan, and now Li Cheng's proposal for a premium has been approved. At the time, the agreement was to sell it at double the premium, or twelve million yuan.

But those big guys felt that twelve million was too much and were afraid that no one would take it over, so they negotiated a less exciting price, which was nine million nine hundred and ninety thousand.

When President Gao heard the price, he almost said, "Are you just following the trend? Are you waiting for the millennium bug to turn this money into countless nines?"

Of course, someone of President Gao's stature would never say such a thing in such an occasion. Once such words came out of the mouth of a bank president, it would inevitably cause a huge response in society.

It is estimated that there will be a panic spreading in society, or there will suddenly be many accounts in banks with deposits containing only "9".

President Gao was actually quite angry about the 9.99 million. He thought a double premium would be the most appropriate, at least it was a premium, but those people gave him a discount after the premium, which he felt was a disservice to Li Cheng's proposal.

But President Gao has no final say in this matter, as the pricing power is not in his hands.
