Chapter 145: Meeting Controversy (4)

Li Xin said: "I am referring to the problem of copper price trends, as we all know, the first premise of selling hedging operations is that the price will fall in the future, if the copper price does not fall in the future, or rises, such an operation is not only unnecessary, but also brings losses." ”

When Liu Zhongzhou heard this, he felt a little unhappy. Even though he was very familiar with Li Xin's way of behaving, and knew that this young man often played cards out of common sense, and from time to time there would be some surprising actions, but at such an important meeting, Li Xin interrupted the process of the meeting like this, which he did not expect.

Liu Zhongzhou remembered that not long after the meeting began, Li Xin had been fiddling with the laptop he had brought in, and he wondered if Li Xin had deserted his mind just now, and he didn't pay attention to the opinions of others in the meeting hall at all. He frowned and said: "At the beginning, everyone agreed that copper prices would fall in the second half of the year, didn't you pay attention to everyone's speeches?"

Li Xin replied to Liu Zhongzhou with a smile and said: "Chairman, I listened to everyone's opinions just now, but I have some different opinions, and I want to talk about them here." ”

Hearing Li Xin say that he had a different view on copper prices, Liu Zhongzhou couldn't believe his ears, and he remembered that just yesterday, when he asked Li Xin about his views on copper prices, Li Xin also said that he couldn't understand it, so why did he jump out against his own opinions now? Since he had different opinions, why didn't he say it when he asked him yesterday?

Liu Zhongzhou's face sank and he asked: "Are you questioning our judgment on copper prices? Do you think copper prices will continue to rise in the second half of the year?"

All the participants were shocked by Liu Zhongzhou's words, they looked at Liu Zhongzhou's expression, and then looked at Li Xin, the venue was so quiet that they could hear the embroidery needle falling on the ground. Most of them waited with a sense of schadenfreude to see how Li Xin would respond to Liu Zhongzhou's questioning, and they knew what would happen if they disagreed with Liu Zhongzhou on such an occasion.

Xue Chenzhi and Huang Hongliang are even more so, this cronie promoted by Liu Zhongzhou himself is in opposition to Liu Zhongzhou at this time, and the plot here will be very rich if you think about it casually, they each lit a cigarette, turned sideways, looked at Li Xin not far away, and quietly watched how he performed. In their eyes, it's more enjoyable than watching a Hollywood blockbuster.

Jiang Hua looked at Liu Zhongzhou, who had a grim face, and then at Li Xin, and secretly sneered in his heart: You kid also have today!

The relationship between him and Li Xin is still incompatible, although he is much more polite to Li Xin on the face, and he no longer dares to treat Li Xin as a subordinate with a straight face as before, but the hostility towards Li Xin in his heart has increased unabated.

This was the first time he had seen Liu Zhongzhou pull down his face to reprimand Li Xin, and with his understanding of Liu Zhongzhou, he knew that more severe reprimands would follow. If Li Xin was repaired by Liu Zhongzhou in public, for Jiang Hua, it would be more comfortable than the New Year.

Wu Yunyu, who was taking minutes of the meeting on the side, was in a somewhat complicated mood at this time.

Li Xin has not participated in many such meetings, and in the first few meetings, he was like a transfer student, not only did he not have any communication with other senior executives attending the meeting, but also sat in the venue and only listened to others, and he couldn't say any opinions.

Coupled with the resentment of Li Xin in her heart, she had some contempt for Li Xin's performance in previous meetings, she felt that Li Xin was like an ornament in the venue, unable to put forward any opinions, completely useless, and not even as good as herself. He still made a meeting record, Li Xin was completely a spectator, and it was really incompetent to be a company executive at his level.

Such a view is not only owned by Wuyunyu, but also Xue Chenzhi, Huang Hongliang, Jiang Hua and others, who all think that Liu Zhongzhou's promotion of Li Xin is completely a mistake.

But not long after today's meeting began, Li Xin's performance surprised Wuyunyu. When he answered everyone's questions and expounded his views at the meeting, his words were clear and eloquent. His high-spirited demeanor is similar to his performance in previous meetings, except for the beginning when Chairman Liu Zhongzhou spoke, most of the rest of the time, everyone's attention seemed to be focused on Li Xin, thinking that he was the protagonist of the meeting.

Li Xin's déjà vu performance made Wuyunyu seem to see the him hidden deep in her heart again, this is the Li Xin who made her fascinated at the beginning, but why was Li Xin not like this in her eyes before today?

There was a change in his heart, and the eyes of Wuyunyu looking at Li Xin at this time softened a lot. She was also a little fascinated by the very professional things Li Xin said, and a few times she forgot to take notes because she was watching Li Xin speak, and when she remembered to write, she was stuck for a while because she was not familiar with those professional terms, and she used spaces and question marks instead in many places, and planned to wait for him to verify after the meeting was over.

What she didn't expect was that when the meeting was going smoothly, Li Xin's unabashed words made Liu Zhongzhou's face change color, and the atmosphere in the venue suddenly became tense, and she couldn't help but stop writing and sweat for Li Xin. She has seen many people at such a meeting who were scolded on the spot because they couldn't answer Liu Zhongzhou's questions.

At this time, Li Xin, who had already become the focus of the meeting, did not expect Liu Zhongzhou to react like this, he looked at the meaningful gaze cast by everyone, scratched his head with his hands, seemed to be a little embarrassed and smiled, and said: "Chairman, in fact, it is not to question everyone's judgment, it is just some of my personal different views, I think it seems more appropriate to change this statement." ”

As soon as Liu Zhongzhou heard Li Xin's words, he immediately reacted, his performance just now was a little out of shape, and he just said that everyone should fully express their opinions.

Liu Zhongzhou secretly admired Li Xin's impatience, he knew that if he were someone else, he would let himself be scolded like this just now, I am afraid he would not even dare to say anything more. But Li Xin's understatement not only resolved the tense atmosphere at the venue, but also secretly reminded himself that the chairman should pay attention to his posture. It's really rare that a young man of his age can easily deal with such a complicated situation!

So he softened his face and said, "Okay, what is the different opinion? ”

Jiang Hua saw that Liu Zhongzhou's face softened, and the mood of watching the big drama secretly disappeared by half: It seems that Liu Zhongzhou really thinks that Li Xin is his cronies, if it is someone else, how can he be so polite!

Xue Chenzhi and Huang Hongliang, the two people who hold the power of sales, are different, they also saw the relaxation of the atmosphere at the venue, but they were unmoved, they knew better than others that the key issue that Li Xin said had not come out at this time, and that was what Liu Zhongzhou was most concerned about. If the explanation of that question does not satisfy Liu Zhongzhou, then everything just now is just a drizzle, and the real storm is still to come.

Li Xin got up and turned on the projector on the table, and after a while, the picture on his laptop was clearly displayed on the white screen next to the conference table, Li Xin picked up the laser pointer on the table to indicate, pointed to the graphics on the screen and said: "Everyone, please see, this is the trend chart of copper prices in history, the red is the Shanghai copper futures price, the blue is the sales price of the Southern Group, and the purple is the London copper futures price, as everyone said, the current price is the highest in history." Until yesterday, I didn't understand the reasons for such a rapid rise in copper prices. I've consulted a lot of people, including analysts and deputy general managers of futures companies, as well as sales staff within the group, who, like me, don't know why this problem is. Today, I dare to ask you that you have worked in the non-ferrous metals industry for longer than me, can you talk about the root cause of the rise in copper prices?"

When Jiang Hua heard this, he snorted lightly in his nose, very disapproving, he thought that Li Xin was becoming more and more ignorant, although Li Xin was now promoted to assistant to the chairman, but everyone sitting at the edge of this conference table had higher qualifications than him. Li Xin asked questions in such a preachy tone, asking everyone to answer his questions, even the director of the administrative office who didn't know much about business was not a taste in his heart, Liu Zhongzhou, Xue Chenzhi and Huang Hongliang can imagine how they would feel after hearing it, isn't he asking for hardship?

Liu Zhongzhou's mood calmed down at this time, he looked at the data graphics made by Li Xin, although he didn't know what Li Xin would say next, but this young man was fully prepared on this issue, which was very clear.

Jiang Hua guessed correctly, Xue Chenzhi was really as he thought, thinking that Li Xin's tone was a little condescending, and he regarded himself as a primary school student, if he opened his mouth to answer his question, wouldn't that be self-surrendering? So he didn't say a word, waiting to see what Li Xin would say next.

Huang Hongliang thought that Li Xin was tricky, he thought: The price will naturally rise if supply exceeds demand, you can't figure out such a simple question, and you still have the face to talk about it at the meeting!

Wu Yunyu, who was sitting on the side and taking minutes of the meeting, saw all this clearly, she was a little anxious at this time, she had never seen someone ask everyone here like this at this meeting, the expressions on the faces of these people were already very revealing, Li Xin was not careful, and it was likely to become the target of public criticism.

Li Xin didn't think about it so much, he just felt that if he wanted to talk about this key issue, he would talk about it from the roots. The reason why he got into the topic so concisely and immediately was because he really wanted to hear the opinions of everyone in the room.

But after he said the above words, he stopped and waited for dozens of seconds, and saw that everyone was silent, so he began his own elaboration according to the draft he had just typed.
