Li Na froze on the spot upon hearing this, staring at Lu Feng with only one thought in her mind: Damn it, this was too hasty!
Manager Ma hesitated for a while before saying, "President Lu, President Li doesn't seem to know much about the company. Our cooperation..."
"The contract has already been signed!" Lu Feng put down his chopsticks and said, "Don't worry, my family's usage is enough to ensure your company's operation. This situation won't last long. The industry is currently in a state of intense competition."
Regarding the payment...
"According to the contract, we can settle every three months or pay cash on delivery. We have plenty of funds."
Li Na secretly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up her chopsticks, and said, "Let's eat!"
The atmosphere at the dinner table began to improve, but Manager Ma was still unwilling to give up. He kept picking on Lu Feng and implied that if he accepted Jiafeng Electronics' order, he would lose other orders. He was implying that Weipuda's sales were not good and that it would be difficult for it to survive in the industry.
After a satisfying meal, Li Na went downstairs and said to Manager Ma, "You should go back now. Take care of things at the company. I don't know much about it, so I'm counting on you."
"It's alright, it's nothing. Let me take you home first."
"No need, no need, I can go back by myself."
After Manager Ma left, Li Na looked at Lu Feng and said, "Can we go over there and talk?"
Lu Feng let Liu Cheng go first, while he accompanied Li Na on a stroll along the roadside. The trees were already lush and green, and the gentle breeze under the night sky was refreshing.
"What should we talk about?"
"You run a large company. I'd like to ask, can someone like me who doesn't understand business manage a factory well?"
"No!" Lu Feng said without the slightest hesitation.
"Not even a chance?"
"With your personality, you have absolutely no chance. Hasn't your man said anything to you?"
"I won't lie to you, he told me to be careful of Manager Ma, and if things get really bad, to sell the company."
“It’s clear that Mr. Tian is a smart man. Small businesses can’t be managed in a formal way, and there are too many places where they can be manipulated.” Lu Feng said slowly as he walked. “If you want to sell, I can consider acquiring it, but not a full shareholding, just about 51 percent.”
"He took over this company from his father. My father-in-law was an employee of Xiaoshan Mining. After leaving the company, he founded this company. In the years that he managed it, it grew significantly. His dream was to make this company the largest copper company in the province under his leadership. But unexpectedly..."
Seeing that she was choking up, Lu Feng reached out and patted her back to comfort her, knowing that Li Na was indeed going through a difficult time.
"I am an orphan and a widow..."
"It's alright, I can help you, I'll try my best." Lu Feng stopped and looked at her, saying, "The price I'm giving you this time is the market standard price. Just stabilize production and supply normally, and we'll see what the specific situation is later."
Li Na nodded. These past few days had been hell on earth for her. For some reason, she was able to relax in front of Lu Feng and talk about her innermost thoughts. Little did she know that she, who knew nothing about the business world, had already been drawn into a vortex of struggle.
Back home, Lu Feng called Zhang Fengxia and asked her to coordinate with Tianying Copper Industry as soon as possible so that production could continue as usual. He said he would be back in a few days.
Under the cover of night, Jiao Enfan was on the phone with Manager Ma. It was late at night and the house was unusually quiet. Perhaps because he felt guilty, he kept his voice very low as he made the call.
“Mr. Ma, you should know your company’s size in the industry better than I do. You’re a smart man.”
“Mr. Jiao, the contract has already been signed, and there’s nothing I can do about it. His wife treats me like I’m a thief. I’ve been working for his family for so many years, and it really breaks my heart.”
"Mr. Ma, you also have shares, right?"
"Yes, I have seven percent!"
"Would you like to have more shares?"
.................
The following day, discussions about Tianying Copper Industry began to increase within the industry, and this previously inconspicuous small company began to emerge.
When Lu Feng heard some news about Tianying Copper Industry from Liu Cheng, he immediately sensed something was wrong. Although Jia Feng and Jiao Enfan had been arguing fiercely these past two days, and there had been a lot of discussion in the industry, it was still strange to put such a small company in the spotlight.
Lu Feng felt he didn't have the ability to do so, and the only explanation he could give was that Jiao Enfan and his group had their eyes on the company and had already taken some action.
After making seven or eight phone calls and analyzing the information gathered from various sources, Lu Feng guessed that these people wanted to take over Tianying Copper Industry.
This company is not large, with a market value of around ten million. Jiao Enfan alone would definitely not be able to take it over, but it would be a piece of cake for him to join forces with a group of state-owned enterprises to take over such a small copper company.
Lu Feng hung up the phone, sat on the sofa, sighed helplessly. The tug-of-war in the market had shifted to the supply chain. This fierce battle would never end without killing off a few companies.
"What's wrong? Why are you sighing like that?" Jiang Xiaoyan came over and sat down, poured Lu Feng a cup of tea, and said, "I don't know what happened to you, or how I can help you."
"Just focus on your work. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but the hardest part is over now. Now we have to face the second difficulty." Lu Feng picked up his teacup, took two sips, and said, "I... I'm leaving tomorrow."
"So rushed?"
Seeing that she seemed reluctant to part, Lu Feng reached out and pulled her into his arms, whispering to comfort her, "It's alright, she'll probably be back in a few days."
