When will I have a long tassel?

"This guy is crazy. He plans to fight everyone until death."

In the private room of a small restaurant in Xia Liang City, Shao Weiyuan said to Tang Zifeng with an angry face.

Tang Zifeng said that he still had some clients in Xia Liang who wanted to move around. In fact, it was just an excuse. His real purpose was to talk to some people from Xia Yiji and find out about Xia Yiji's background.

Gao Jinsheng could more or less guess Tang Zifeng's intention, so he initially expressed his intention to equip Tang Zifeng with a car, but then withdrew his kindness because doing so seemed to be supervising Tang Zifeng, which Tang Zifeng would definitely not accept.

After Tang Zifeng settled in the hotel, he called Shao Weiyuan and asked him to meet at a convenient time. Shao Weiyuan and Tang Zifeng made an appointment at such a remote restaurant. After get off work, they pretended to go back home before going out to keep the appointment. Along the way, he carefully looked around, for fear that Gao Jinsheng would send someone to keep an eye on him.

"Mr. Tang, you don't know that this Gao Jinsheng is definitely a villain. After acquiring our Xia Yiji, he replaced the finance and human resources departments with his own people and managed the company like an iron man. It's the same as the barrel. That is, he is not familiar with the domestic machine tool industry, so he still keeps me as the general manager. I am thinking that before long, he will have to remove me as the general manager and go home to raise his grandson."

Shao Weiyuan muttered, wishing he could vent all the anger he had suffered in the past two or three years to Tang Zifeng. He knew the purpose of Tang Zifeng's visit, and could also guess that Tang Zifeng and Gao Jinsheng had an unpleasant conversation. In this way, Tang Zifeng and he were on the same front, and he could complain to Tang Zifeng as much as he wanted.

"I had a conversation with him today. I wanted to persuade him to consider the overall situation and not engage in this kind of price war. But he refused." Tang Zifeng said.

"It's more than just rejection." Shao Weiyuan said, "Mr. Tang, you may not know that just a few minutes after you left, Gao Jinsheng called me up and informed me that in two weeks the prices of several lathes in our factory would be announced. Reduce it by another 5%. I'm thinking that this should be for you, Mr. Tang."

Tang Zifeng smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter whether you made it for me to see. The key point is, Mr. Shao, the price of your lathe is already very low. I asked people from our group's operations department to calculate it. Your lathe is now It should already be selling at a loss, right? If the price drops by another 5%, it will definitely be a loss and a profit."

"Isn't it?" Shao Weiyuan said, "You are absolutely right. Our current lathes are already sold at a loss. If the price drops further, we will only lose more money."

"Can your funds sustain it?"

"Gao Jinsheng said that he will transfer another 50 million from the group to subsidize this shortfall."

"Have the guts!" Tang Zifeng couldn't help but want to give Gao Jinsheng a thumbs up. He transferred money from the group to fight a price war. This determination was strong enough. Jinsheng Group has several real estate projects in Jingnan, and the profits are very good. It is not difficult for Gao Jinsheng to mobilize 50 million funds.

Xia Yiji's machine tools are sold at a loss, but the amount of loss per machine tool is not particularly large. There is a subsidy of 50 million, which is enough for Xia Yiji to last for a while.

Qingbei Machine Tool Factory and Qianyan No. 1 Machine Tool Factory, the two companies directly affected, faced this kind of price war and could only choose to cut prices to protect the market. There is no real estate company behind them to give them blood transfusion. If they sell at a loss, the time they can sustain is very limited. Gao Jinsheng's purpose is to use this method to bring down these two competitors and achieve the goal of monopolizing the machine tool market.

Gao Jinsheng had not revealed his intention to launch a new round of price war before. After talking with Tang Zifeng, he made the decision immediately. This should not be a coincidence. Tang Zifeng thought that maybe he had played a role in threatening him. Gao Jinsheng was also worried that higher-level departments would come to talk to him, so he sped up the steps and wanted to create a fait accompli before the state intervened.

"What do the employees in your company think of this matter?" Tang Zifeng asked.

Shao Weiyuan said: "What can employees think? They don't understand this kind of sales thing. That is to say, several of our company leaders chatted privately and said that this approach is harmful to others and not beneficial to ourselves, and it suppresses the price of the entire market. If it goes down, it will be difficult to get it back up. Now the company relies on blood transfusions from the group to support itself. If one day the group stops giving blood transfusions, the company will collapse all of a sudden."

Tang Zifeng said: "That's not the case. Gao Jinsheng's plan is to wait until Qingji and Qianyiji are squeezed out, then your family will have the final say in the market. Then the price may be raised back. Make more money.”

"He has a beautiful idea." Shao Weiyuan said disdainfully, "How can Qingji and the previous one be so easily crushed? Qingji's old Zhao called me a few days ago and just said a word, saying that he was accompanying me In the end. He said that at worst, he would stop investing in new equipment and technology research and development in the company, and try to sell the iron at the same time. Even if we cannot survive in the end, we will lose a layer of our skin."

Tang Zifeng said: "This is what I told Gao Jinsheng today. I said that Tengji and Linyiji under our Linji Group can do nothing but machine tools. Even if they are obviously losing money, they can only bite the bullet and do it. , until he can’t hold it any longer. Then your CEO likes to gamble, and at the worst he can afford to lose tens of millions.”

"He farts!" Shao Weiyuan swore, "He can afford to pay, but can we afford to pay? When the time comes, he can't play anymore, slaps his butt and leaves, and we, Xia Yiji, Qingji, and Qianji, can only If you have one breath left, whose loss belongs to you?"

"Mr. Shao, do you think there is any way we can stop him from acting like this?" Tang Zifeng asked.

"There is no way, unless the country issues a policy that will not allow him to do this."

"If we come up with a policy just for him, his face doesn't seem that big."

"It doesn't necessarily have to be a written rule. As long as the leader from above says something, I don't think he dares to continue making trouble like this, right? After all, isn't he just a farmer entrepreneur? How can he be so bold?"

Tang Zifeng sneered: "It is precisely because he is a farmer entrepreneur that he is very courageous. I told him that it is impossible for the state to allow him to wantonly destroy the machine tool industry like this. He said that as long as he does not break the law, the state will not control it. he."

"The state can't control him? Ha, who does he really think of himself?" Shao Weiyuan almost laughed.

He has been a leader of a state-owned enterprise for more than ten years. He can act domineering in front of workers or government departments in Xialiang City, but he does not have the courage to go against national policies. Now that he heard that Gao Jinsheng didn't care about the country, Shao Weiyuan instinctively thought that Gao Jinsheng was going to be in trouble, so he couldn't help but laugh.

"Mr. Shao, let me ask you, if there is something wrong with Jinsheng Group, can you be able to stabilize Xia Yiji?" Tang Zifeng lowered his voice and asked Shao Weiyuan.

Shao Weiyuan was shocked and asked: "What, Mr. Tang, is the country really going to take action against Jinsheng Group?"

"This is considered an option." Tang Zifeng was vague.

Shao Weiyuan is also a smart man, and of course he understands what Tang Zifeng means. He thought for a moment and said: "We may need to inform the Xia Liang Municipal Government about this matter, and we need to ask the bank to make some preparations. If something happens to Jinsheng Group, I estimate that Gao Jinsheng will immediately take care of Xia Liang." If all the funds from Yiji are taken away, then we won’t even be able to get the money to pay employees, and something may happen.

"If the bank can help us and support us for a month or two, we will almost be able to resume production, and then the problem will not be big."

"I understand." Tang Zifeng nodded, and then warned: "Mr. Shao, you are also an old man in the industry. You should be able to see that the country cannot ignore the current situation. Director Xie, Xu The boss, as well as President Zhou, have all spoken out, saying that Xia Yiji's problem must be solved.

"As for who will take action next and how, I don't know yet, but the result should be predictable. From now on, you should contact some old comrades in the company to prepare everyone for the contingency.

"At that time, if Gao Jinsheng just siphons off the company's funds, he will do it. But if he wants to destroy the company's production, such as selling off the company's equipment, you must stop him.

"Xia Yiji is also an important equipment company in our country. It is the hard work of several generations and cannot be destroyed in the hands of this naughty boy."

Shao Weiyuan beat his chest loudly and assured Tang Zifeng: "Don't worry, Mr. Tang. Even if I, Shao, risk his life, I have to protect Xia Yiji for Mr. Xu and Director Xie."

"Well, when the matter is over, I will ask for credit for you in front of Director Xie and Mr. Xu." Tang Zifeng said.

He understands the purpose of Shao Weiyuan's performance. If Gao Jinsheng is driven away, Xia Yiji will inevitably face another restructuring. Shao Weiyuan needs to make some positive performances so that he can continue to be reused in the next round of restructuring.

That's all we can talk to Shao Weiyuan. Tang Zifeng was not worried that Shao Weiyuan would report to Gao Jinsheng. If he did report, it would be equivalent to threatening Gao Jinsheng again for Tang Zifeng, which might actually have a little deterrent effect.

After talking to Gao Jinsheng, Tang Zifeng knew that it was impossible to resolve Xia Yiji's matter peacefully. Either he would sit back and watch Gao Jinsheng ruin the entire industry, or he would take decisive action and give Gao Jinsheng a head-on blow, leaving him no choice. Not taking back his claws.

Tang Zifeng believes that people like Xu Zhaojian and Xie Tiancheng will choose the latter, because the country cannot afford the loss of the entire machine tool industry being paralyzed.

As for how to deal a blow to Gao Jinsheng, Tang Zifeng would have to wait until he went back to consult several leaders for instructions.

After staying in Xia Liang for another day and privately meeting with several other cadres of Xia Yiji, Tang Zifeng returned to the capital by plane to return his orders to Zhou Heng.
