1987: Sleepless Tonight

Chapter 1334 Leader’s Requirements

"No problem. You have to sign a contract with Boss Lu yourself. Instead of being a permanent employee, it must be in accordance with the labor contract. If you do repeatedly disobey the company's rules and regulations, you can handle it as you want, but most of the time If employees can have a job, they will actually be satisfied, but life is not easy for everyone," Li Changhe said.

"That's no problem. I can agree to this aspect." Lu Hao said, "A one-time liquidated damages of 2,000 million yuan. Is this a strong request from Coca-Cola?"

2,000 million is a large amount. It is difficult to pay a one-time compensation. Coca-Cola should understand this truth. The other party also wants to develop in the domestic market, so it should not be so aggressive.

Just get the liquidated damages as compensation, and at most interest will be added on.

Moreover, no one is sure yet how the Second Beverage Factory will handle this matter, so as not to break up with Coca-Cola and lead to a final showdown.

Lu Hao wanted to know more about the inside story, so he asked.

"A one-time compensation of 2,000 million yuan to Coca-Cola. This request was not made by Coca-Cola, but by the leaders. Is it to comply with the terms of the contract and transfer the management rights of the second beverage factory to Coca-Cola, or is it a breach of contract and compensation? Regarding liquidated damages, the Second Beverage Factory has not yet given a definite answer to Coca-Cola and has been delaying it." Li Changhe said, "Giving 2,000 million to Coca-Cola at one time is the leader's request."

Leader’s request!

Coca-Cola really didn’t know anything about it.

This is really a generosity to others. He took 2,000 million and ignored it. He directly made the decision for Coca-Cola and asked him to hand over 2,000 million in liquidated damages at once.

This behavior is similar to that of some men who, when they see a dispute between men and women, have no principles and side with women unconditionally. Men should be generous and speak frankly about what a man cares about with a woman, but they don’t know what the person involved has experienced. , just kept telling others to be generous, using other people’s grievances and sadness as a bargaining chip for their own generosity, and covering themselves with the cloak of a gentleman.

Now the leader in charge of the No. 2,000 Beverage Factory is doing something similar to this. Coca-Cola did not ask for a one-time compensation of 2,000 million. It is obviously negotiable to compensate 2,000 million in batches. However, the leader in charge of the No. [-] Beverage Factory does not care about that. Directly ask him to pay a one-time compensation of [-] million.

"What's the reason? We haven't negotiated with Coca-Cola yet, and we have to pay 2,000 million in one lump sum. 2,000 million is not a small amount." Lu Hao asked.

He also wanted to find out if the leader in charge of the Second Beverage Factory made such a request for some other reason that he didn't know.

"The leaders are considering this and making such demands because they are worried that we are the ones who have breached the contract. If we delay in paying compensation, it will give people a bad impression and affect other foreign investment in Jiangcheng. A one-time compensation can at least improve the perception. Better." Li Changhe said.

"Strictly speaking, paying liquidated damages is not actually a breach of the contract. It is done in accordance with the contract. It just violates some terms in the contract. The provisions for liquidated damages are also in the contract. If you violate some terms, you are willing to pay liquidated damages. This is actually abiding by the contract. The conclusion of the contract cannot only be in but not out, and only stipulate punitive measures when out." Lu Hao said, "As for affecting the perception of foreign investors, this is nonsense. As long as foreign investors see the benefits If there is a plan, they will continue to come in. As long as the city's business environment, general business policies, and business market can make foreign capital smell the benefits, they will come to invest."

"On the contrary, if you want policies but no policies, and if you want a market but no market, even if you take the initiative to give money, the other party may not come over, because what people are coveting is not three melons and two dates, but a huge commercial market. Furthermore, the state has introduced these The ultimate goal of policies, such as providing these preferential policies and vigorously introducing foreign investment, is to help our economy get out of trouble, so that we can also make money, let our companies get out of their comfort zones, stimulate their ambition, and make them more motivated. Full of competitiveness, rather than letting these foreign capital replace our companies. While introducing foreign capital, providing preferential treatment, and respecting foreign capital, we should also help domestic companies develop, instead of coaxing foreign capital one-sidedly and considering everything for foreign capital. .”

In the past, Lu Hao would not have said these words to Li Changhe, but now Li Changhe is still counting on him to take over the second beverage factory so that the second factory can continue to produce soda.

Moreover, Li Changhe's state of mind was very different from before. These words had little impact on Li Changhe. On the contrary, they could arouse indignation and dissatisfaction in Li Changhe's heart.

"Who says it's not? Boss Lu, what you said makes sense, but the Second Beverage Factory is a state-owned unit, and it is also a very large state-owned unit. Even though I am the deputy director, I can't make the final decision on many things. I can do some errands and follow the trend, but in other places, I can only do whatever the leader tells me." Li Changhe sighed, "There is indeed a lot of pressure to come up with 2,000 million in one go. , let’s do this, I will talk to the leader again and see if we can be accommodating. Don’t take it out all at once, but take it out in stages and many times. The interest can be counted. It has not been explained to Coca-Cola yet. We can still discuss our ideas.”

He is willing to fight again in front of the leader.

"No, just 2,000 million, just take it out one at a time. I agree to both conditions mentioned by Director Li." Lu Hao said, "You can reply to the leader when the acquisition contract will be signed. Once you have the exact information, you can contact me again and I will definitely cooperate fully."

???

agreed?

Li Changhe was originally very uneasy. Neither of these two conditions was easy, especially the second one, which required a one-time payment of 2 million in liquidated damages. It was even more difficult. He thought Lu Hao would not agree, but Lu Hao After some complaining he agreed.

"Over at the bank, Boss Lu, if you need help, you can call me and I will find a way to help. I have dealt with the bank before, and I will give you a little face and a little bit. Credibility." Li Changhe said.

"Thank you, Director Li, but I should be able to solve it myself." Lu Hao said.

Originally, I planned to get a loan from a bank, and I needed to find more than one bank and several banks to get the required loan. However, the conversations with the upstream suppliers and downstream dealers went very smoothly, and I was able to raise funds. If you get some funds, and if you are still short of money, you can go to a few banks you know. With your own reputation and the assets in your name, you can get a loan.

No need to find another relationship.
