My boss betrayed me

Wang Long had obviously memorized these words beforehand, just like reading a script. This impassioned speech not only sentenced the past negotiations to death, but also set an iron tone for future negotiations.

On the one hand, he pushes all responsibilities away, on the other hand, he belittles the other party as worthless, and at the same time, he stands arrogantly on the moral high ground. It seems as if he is going to slam the table loudly in the next second, turn around and walk away, so arrogant that it is shocking.

Director Ma was as big as a mountain. The simple wooden sofa in the conference room looked pitiful and fragile under his huge body. He must have felt very uncomfortable sitting on it.

But Director Ma was so calm and composed, as if he could use the sky as a blanket even if it fell. He held a cigarette in his mouth leisurely, and listened quietly to Wang Long's high-sounding talk. His expression seemed as if everything was under his control, and his mind was as clear as a mirror.

The leather factory's competent department has long established a firm and unwavering basic principle: if foreign investors are here to deceive people, they must give a clear explanation and not try to just shirk responsibility and run away.

If it really doesn't work, we have to agree to all the conditions proposed by foreign investors. It just depends on whether they have real money to put out and whether they have the courage and strength.

Director Ma flicked the ash off his cigarette slowly and said calmly, "Let's not talk about the past anymore. Now let's focus on the crucial matter of transferring the ownership of the leather factory.

Since you proposed the requirement of sole proprietorship, before the formal negotiations, our two sides have had several contacts and exchanged some opinions.

There are two key issues now. One is the added value of property transfer. If it is still calculated according to the share value at the time of the joint venture, it would be a pipe dream.

The second is the issue of employee placement after the transfer of ownership. This is not just about the jobs of a few employees, it is a major issue related to social stability. People need to have food to eat to survive.”

The foreign accountant immediately took over the conversation: "Regarding the added value of property transfer, our view is completely opposite.

The share value at that time was calculated according to your standards. Although it was written into the draft agreement, we did not agree or formally approve it.

Regarding the depreciation of the share value, our reasons are very sufficient. Now I will let the engineer explain it in detail. "

Just as the engineer was concentrating on listening to the German translation, Wang Long interrupted impatiently and anxiously: "We have lost a lot of money on that share, and you haven't gained any advantage. After all, it is a joint venture.

Now the situation has changed dramatically. We are the sole proprietor and we bought out the business in one go. This is like wholesale and retail, can they be the same price? This is obvious!"

What Wang Long said was full of loopholes, and everyone present couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Wang Long was so embarrassed that his face turned red. He wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into, as if he could dig out a luxurious villa from the ground. Seeing this, his female secretary hurried out to save the situation, with a flattering smile on her face, and said:

"Boss Wang is really good at having fun. He can be so humorous and funny in such a serious and tense occasion. This is simply god-level operation!"

"I just want to make the atmosphere more relaxed and cheerful." Wang Long smiled and tried to save face, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.

The engineer quickly pulled out a bunch of illustrated materials and pictures from his bag, and started gesticulating and talking fluently while the translator beside him gave precise explanations in Chinese almost simultaneously.

What the engineer meant was that according to the strict technical requirements of Austrian leather production, all of China's existing factories and equipment would have to be laid off and would have no use at all. The Austrian side couldn't be so foolish as to spend money to buy a bunch of scrap copper, iron, bricks and tiles.

In order to prove his point, the engineer presented all kinds of irrefutable evidence like a machine gun, one after another, which was overwhelming.

"Of course," Wang Long stood up again without waiting for the other party to speak. This time, he restrained his arrogance and became more calm. He spoke slowly and carefully, "After all, I am a Longteng countryman. After all, I have worked hard in Hanzhou. I don't have such a black heart.

If I had no feelings for Hanzhou, would I have come all the way here to invest? If we adopt innovative methods combining local and foreign methods to carry out technical transformation, most of the equipment in the leather factory can still be used. I have discussed this repeatedly with the engineers.

Foreigners can ignore it, but I cannot ignore friendship, because I am Chinese. I also hope that Hanzhou can put itself in the shoes of overseas Chinese and understand their difficulties, and show some sincerity.

If I insist on scrapping the existing equipment, I have good reasons; if I don't want to go through the trouble of upgrading the equipment, that's also my free choice, but I'm not so heartless. "

Director Ma nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "The national conditions of the two sides are very different. It is normal to have different ideas. Regarding feelings and interests, we still have to consider them closely in combination with the actual national conditions of our Longteng country.

For example, when a company goes bankrupt, they have a perfect and impeccable security system in foreign countries, so they don’t have to worry about the placement of employees. It’s different here, the security system is still being improved, and social stability must be placed in the first place.

So I think the two key issues of share value and employee placement can be discussed together. If they can complement and coordinate with each other, wouldn’t the solutions to the problem be more numerous? Regarding employee placement, Mr. Wang, please break it down and explain it in detail. "

Wang Long cleared his throat and said seriously: "In essence, we should not be legally responsible for the resettlement of employees. After all, you are a state-owned enterprise, and employees are the owners of the state-owned enterprise. Employees should follow the property transfer fee and follow the party and the country.

However, we still intend to carry forward the humanitarian spirit, help the government share some of the pressure, and do what we can. "

"What are the specific contents?" a representative of the factory asked anxiously, looking like an ant on hot pan.

Wang Long glanced at the female secretary, who understood what he meant. She quickly opened the folder, took out a list, and said in an orderly manner: "First, we will carefully select 60 people from the existing employees to retain them. We have already carefully drawn up the list.

We plan to organize them to participate in training before the negotiation agreement is formally signed to learn professional techniques of quality management and leather production. We are fully responsible for the venue fees and teaching staff of the training. All trainees will study with salary, which is tentatively set at 300 Longteng coins per month, which will be paid by us.

We do this, firstly, to show our sincerity, which is full of heart; secondly, to make adequate preparations for the backbone of production in advance for the start of production.

Second, for those who were not selected, we will give each of them a resettlement fee of 5,000 Dragon Teng coins. As for retired employees, we are really powerless and cannot control them. "

The resettlement fee of 5,000 Dragon Teng coins is just a drop in the ocean compared to the high consumption in the city. It only comes down to 40 Dragon Teng coins per month, which is simply a drop in the bucket.

However, the unexpected move of retaining 60 people and placing them under foreign management ahead of schedule greatly shocked the factory.

The factory's negotiating representatives were extremely sensitive about the retention list and they all rushed to check it. The meeting room suddenly became a mess like a pot of steaming eight-treasure porridge.
