Huang Youwei hung up the phone and immediately called a meeting. A moment later, Secretary Cui walked in and said to Huang Youwei, "The notification has been sent out to everyone."
"Did Di Mingde also notify him?"
"I've informed Secretary Huang. Should we give him a warning at this meeting?" Secretary Cui inquired. "He's been making some rather bold moves lately!"
Huang Youwei took a deep breath, took out a cigarette from the drawer and lit it. The situation was already a bit complicated. After smoking for a while, he said, "Forget it, a small act of impatience can ruin a big plan. Let's just restore Jiafeng Electronics' direct sales store."
Secretary Cui nodded in agreement, saying, "The bigger picture is what matters; we have to be patient!"
The outside world is already buzzing with excitement. Such a big move is unprecedented for Jiafeng Electronics. There have indeed been a lot of things happening lately, one wave after another.
Other electronics companies were initially a bit panicked. Given the intensity of the investigation into Jiafeng Electronics, no private enterprise in the city could get away with it. After making inquiries, they learned that it was only targeting Jiafeng Electronics, and everyone finally felt relieved.
Inside an office, several CEOs were gathered together drinking tea.
"This is like tigers fighting, it scared us bastards to death! You have no idea, I just heard this morning that the Market Supervision Bureau raided and shut down Jiafeng Electronics' direct sales store, I was terrified."
"Hahaha, if Jiafeng Electronics can't even pass the spot check, then all the electronics businesses in the city should just shut down."
"It's getting bigger and bigger lately, it feels like a fight to the death. Who are the three Hao brothers? They've made such a big fuss. I feel like Lu Feng won't be able to handle this."
"This is beyond the comprehension of us mere mortals. I have the latest news: a meeting is being held in the city."
After a round of conspiracy theories, everyone sipped a cup of tea, displaying a calm and collected demeanor as they watched the unfolding events.
At the meeting, Huang Youwei looked grim, while Di Mingde sat to his left, seemingly oblivious to the whole affair.
Huang Youwei slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Who told you to investigate? Is this how you investigate? Who ordered you to investigate? If you don't give me an explanation today, get out of here!"
The head of the Market Supervision Bureau turned pale and glanced at Di Mingde furtively. He dared not say that Di Mingde had given the order.
Di Mingde slowly said, "Whoever takes the lead is responsible. Just say it. No matter who it is today, this responsibility must be assigned to that individual. We will investigate and hold them accountable. The panic caused to local businesses will be long-lasting. Of course, you are also doing your duty to investigate and punish counterfeit and shoddy products, which is understandable. Speak freely, and Secretary Huang and I will back you up."
Di Mingde's words were well said. The head of the Market Supervision Bureau gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said, "It was my decision. I didn't have time to report it. My intention was to correct the market, but I didn't expect it to be distorted when it was implemented below. It's my fault. You can deal with me however you want."
What can we do?
Huang Youwei slammed his fist on the table and started cursing, silencing everyone present. Di Mingde tried to calm things down and resolve the situation peacefully.
"Revoke it immediately!" Huang Youwei ordered. "Eliminate all negative impacts."
After the meeting ended, Di Mingde walked side by side with the head of the Municipal Market Supervision Bureau in the corridor, the two talking in hushed tones.
"What should I do? Should I remove the seal now?"
"Withdraw? You'd better handle this. Can't you even handle this little thing?" Di Mingde muttered a few words in a low voice, then strode forward.
At Jiafeng Electronics, Lu Feng was eating in the cafeteria. He wasn't worried at all, but some of the managers in charge of the local market department were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
One level to another, Lu Feng contacted Huang Youwei, and all the managers and distributors below him had their own connections, thus forming a huge network of relationships.
In some areas, the store manager and the person in charge have a good relationship; the front door is sealed off, but the back door is open to continue selling goods.
On the second floor of the cafeteria, Lu Feng was eating when Zhu Lidong pushed open the door and walked in, carrying a bowl of rice. He sat down next to him and said, "President Lu, I have some news. Di Mingde and Huang Youwei are at odds, and this matter is a bit difficult for us."
“I know!” Lu Feng put down his chopsticks and said, “Don’t worry, what are we afraid of? When we first made a profit in May or June this year, the finance department even asked me to pay off 200 million yuan of debt to reduce the company’s debt. Luckily, I didn’t pay it off, otherwise we would be at their mercy now.”
Zhu Lidong thought for a moment and said with a smile, "You are much more thoughtful. I have not considered many aspects as well as you have."
“It’s not a matter of being thoughtful or not. Many municipalities are like this. When they need you, they send you to inspect the area, and the leaders will make you go first and flatter you. When they don’t need you anymore, you’re nothing.” Lu Feng sighed and said, “You have to keep something in mind. The lifting of the lockdown probably won’t be finished anytime soon.”
"Didn't they say they were already in a meeting?" Zhang Fengxia walked in and said anxiously, "I thought it would be recovered by the afternoon."
Lu Feng knew that Di Mingde just wanted to stand out, and it was a process of ebb and flow. Unless he was brought down, Jiafeng Electronics had no choice but to withdraw.
"I'm going to take care of something this afternoon. Does anyone have Hao Zhiping's contact information?" Lu Feng had been waiting for Hao Zhiping's call, but it never came.
Given the current situation, it's clear that things are tilting in favor of the Hao brothers; it's impossible for them to help someone whose power is significantly weaker than their own.
After dinner, Lu Feng sat in his office, pondering how to win over Hao Zhiping and make him believe that Di Mingde and his gang were about to collapse.
Lu Feng hadn't done anything like scaring people in a long time, and suddenly wanting to use this trick again, he felt a bit rusty.
