"According to the national regulations, the following 20% of the shares auction priority conditions, one is to pay the auction price in US dollars in cash, and the other is a commitment to the future development of the factory! We hope that the buyer will run the steel plant as well as possible after buying the steel plant, and bring higher benefits and benefits to the employees of the steel plant. The auctioneer said.

"Yo! Is the auction of the Chinese people quite humane? The auction actually puts the welfare of employees in the first place, and it seems that this policy is specially set for workers! It would be nice if our country did the same. ”。

"You are envious! Can you believe this kind of empty promise? Anyway, the situation is so chaotic that the buyer can talk casually and buy the steel mill first, and then immediately sell the steel mill and leave with the money. The new boss will not admit the previous promises, and those so-called benefits are all lies. What do so many people who have no conscience do!" Jia Lei said speechlessly.

"How do you know that?" asked the little Jew in surprise.

"I have seen this kind of thing once in Germany, when many factories in Germany were bought and sold directly, and in the end the buyer took the money and left, and the factories also closed down!

As soon as Jia Lei finished saying this, the big talker over there came on!

"Dear auctioneer, my name is Louis from country D, I was originally an East German who grew up under socialism, I love country E! I love Leninism, I have always dreamed of contributing to the people. My brothers and sisters at the Chelyabin Steel Plant and I are all members of the same family, and I believe that when I buy the steel plant, it will lead everyone to a better life...... I will make sure that everyone's living standards will return to the former Soviet Union, and I believe that with the joint efforts of all of us, Chelyabin Iron and Steel Plant will be able to recreate its glory. Louis made a warm and touching declaration, and Jia Lei, who listened, felt ......

"Ahh Jia Lei said with a big yawn.

"How touching are these words, why aren't you thrilled at all?" asked Imockton in a whisper.

"I'm not from country E, and I don't know much about the welfare and system of the former Soviet Union, so I can't empathize with you like you. Besides, what he said is too big and too false! During the former Soviet Union, you workers could earn more than 200 US dollars a month, do you think this is possible with the current situation in your country?" Jia Lei asked with a sneer.

"I hate to admit it, but it's impossible to pay such a high salary!" said Immorton with a nod.

"Thank you, Mr. Louis, for your support to the people of our country, please wait a moment, if there is no better competitor, then you will get a stake in the steel mill. The auction commissioner said with red eyes, after all, Luis's speech was still very moving.

"Is there anyone else who would like to buy the Chelyabin Iron and Steel Plant?" asked the auction commissioner.

"Novan, bring me the report I prepared!" Jia Lei said.

"Okay, boss!" Novan handed him the report written by Jia Lei.

"Hello dear auction commissioners and employees of the steel mill, I'm sure most of you already know me. My name is Jia Lei, and I'm from your neighbor Huaxia. I'm not as eloquent as the Mr. Louis just now, so I'm going to give you something to say, because no matter how nice the words are, they're not as convincing as the facts. Jia Lei stood up with the report and said.

"According to my investigation, there are now about 300,000 workers in the Chelyabin Iron and Steel Plant, and the annual output of various steel products in the steel plant is about 10 million tons. In fact, with your experience, there is no problem in producing steel, but the biggest problem of the Chelyabin Iron and Steel Plant is sales! The Mr. Louis just now said a lot, but he didn't mention a word about how to sell it, right?" Jia Lei didn't forget to stab Louis when he made a statement.

"Yes, yes, yes!" all those present nodded when they heard this.

"We are now engaged in large-scale construction in the whole of China, and you must know this matter. I have a lot of outlets in Huaxia, and I can sell these steels before they leave the factory! So there is absolutely no problem in sales! If the sales are good, your wages and benefits will naturally be high. Jia Lei said.

"That's right, the boss's business is good, of course he won't owe us wages. The employees present nodded in agreement.

"In addition to the sales volume, the rest of the people are probably most concerned about the management of the steel plant after I buy it, right? You can rest assured that I will retain the original management of the steel plant to the greatest extent, and for the grassroots employees, they will not be fired if they complete their work on time and do not violate work discipline. But I won't let go of the black sheep who are passive and slack off or bully my colleagues!" Jia Lei said.

"Yes, those who are lazy and bullying should be fired, so that the factory can be better!" said Immorton who was the first to applaud.

"You have a very detailed understanding of the steel plant, and the future production and sales arrangements are also very thoughtful, which is very good for the future development of the steel exhibition. The man from the Asset Management Committee nodded.

"No matter how good and perfect my arrangements for the steel mill are, it's just empty talk now! Since this is an auction, then we should decide the winner or loser by the price! I am confident that I can come up with enough dollars in cash to participate in the auction, as for Mr. Louis? I heard that he just bought a large amount of goods on credit with the steel mill a while ago, and he has not yet paid for it! I am really very worried about his financial resources?" Jia Lei said meaningfully.

The local officials who organized the auction hesitated when they heard the news, and it stands to reason that the director of the Geldarsky plant had already greeted them and asked them to sell the steel to Louis.

No matter how good the relationship is, it can be compared to real money!

According to the rules, 50% of the auction proceeds are to be reserved for the government where the business is located, and it would be bad if Louis bought the steel mill and couldn't pay the cash!

After Jia Lei finished speaking, another foreign consortium and two local businessmen made promises of various benefits in order to buy shares in the steel plant.

For a while, the members of the auction committee and the people of the asset management committee fell into hesitation, and the number of competitors was a bit unexpected for them.

"Since everyone's conditions are good, let's look at their economic strength! Let's start the auction directly, and the one with the highest price will win!" said the chairman of the Asset Management Committee, which has the most power in the privatization auction.

"I would like to announce the official start of the auction of shares in the Cheli Yabin Iron and Steel Plant! The latest valuation of the Cheli Yabin Iron and Steel Plant is $20 million! The starting price of 20 percent of the shares is $4 million!" the auction dollar announced.

"Boom!" As soon as this valuation came out, the entire auction hall exploded.

"Impossible! Impossible! There are so many machines and equipment in our factory, how do we know that it is only worth 20 million dollars?" Ihairton immediately stood up angrily and asked.

"That's right, the steel in our factory warehouse alone is worth millions of dollars! That's more than the amount of land in a big factory? You are cheating!" Many workers stood up angrily and shouted, and some angrily rushed to the chairman to ask for an explanation.

"Silence, silence, what are you doing in a daze, why don't you come in and drag all these troublemakers out?" said the police chief, who came to the auction.

This kind of auction has been held more than once, and there are always some people who will come to make trouble, especially since there are too many workers at the Chelyabin Iron and Steel Plant, so this time the army specially sent a regiment of people to maintain order.

"We don't accept it! There must be an inside story here, you people are robbers and thieves who steal state property! You black-hearted villains, give us back the steel mill!" shouted as the people pushed and shoved with the police.

"What are you waiting for, Mr. Director, why don't you get rid of these troublemakers?" shouted the local official, jumping to his feet.

"Your Excellency, don't worry, I'll explain to the workers why the valuation of the steel mill is so low. In the past two years, everyone knows that the domestic iron and steel enterprises have been sluggish, so the steel mills have become loss-making enterprises. According to our investigation report, the Chelyabin steel plant has been in arrears with its raw material suppliers for six consecutive months. These liabilities have reached 60 billion rubles, and the accumulated arrears of wages to the workers of the steel plant are as high as 1 billion rubles. All these arrears are offset by the equipment of the steel plant itself, which is why the valuation of the Chelyabin steel plant is so low. The administrator of the previous committee took out an updated valuation report and explained.

"I know about the arrears of wages, I just don't know that there are so many wages owed in the factory!" said one worker in surprise.

"Don't you look at how many people are in our steel mills? 300,000 people have a monthly salary of 250 million rubles, and the steel produced by the steel mills has basically not been sold much in the past few months, so it is not unusual to owe so much money. A worker said.

"Our wages are still a fraction, but the amount of raw materials owed to the units is too much! 60 billion rubles, isn't that more than 120 million dollars?" one worker exclaimed, and the others couldn't help but open their mouths wide.

"According to the terms of the auction, the buyer will have to bear all the previous debts of the steel plant after buying the steel plant, so please consider carefully before deciding whether to participate in this auction. The auctioneer suggested that most of the troublemakers had been kicked out.

"I agree!" Jia Lei said without any fluctuation as he held up the auction number plate.

Louis glanced at Director Geldarsky, who nodded lightly at him.

"I can also guarantee to help the steel mill pay off all its debts and pay the workers. Louis gritted his teeth.

Louis's legs were weak when he said this, you must know that he doesn't have that much money at all!

"I ...... I'm quitting ......," a man from country E hesitated for a moment and finally said.

"Emmockton, do you know who he is?" asked Jia Lei by blocking his mouth with a number plate.

"He is the brother-in-law of the governor of the Chelyabinsk region, and I guess he originally wanted to come and pick up the bargain, and now he wants to quit when he sees that the steel plant owes so much money. Immorton replied.

"So that's the case, then I have a good idea......," Jia Lei said with squinted eyes.

"Jia Lei, what do you want to do? don't you mess around?" Imorton immediately said anxiously.

It's a pity that after he finished saying this, Jia Lei had already stood up at this time!

"Distinguished leaders and members of the auction committee, please forgive me for my presumptuous interruption! I would like to give you a comment. Jia Lei said.

"Oh, what do you think?" asked the chairman of the Assets Committee.

"Because the steel plant has a lot of debts, this is the most urgent situation at the Cheliyabin steel plant! Although there are many buyers here today, I am afraid that not everyone can come up with so much money to pay off the debts. In order to prevent the purchase of a steel mill and the evasion of foreign debts and the deception of the feelings of the workers, I propose that the committee conduct a capital verification of the buyers to ensure that the people who participate in the auction will be able to repay these debts. Jia Lei proposed with a smile.

"Poof!" Louis in the distance leaned for some reason and hit the back of the seat in front of him.

"I'm afraid this request is a bit too presumptuous, isn't it?" asked Director Gairdowski as he glared at Jia Lei.

"But I think it's a good idea, because last year's East German heating company was just around the corner. At that time, I also went to the auction, and after the bag company in East Germany deceived the heating company, it immediately took all the funds in the heating company's account, and sold the land of the heating company to get the money and ran away. I'm afraid that someone will do the same at the Cheliyabin Iron and Steel Plant, and then your country's losses will be too great......," Jia Lei said with a picture of thinking about the government of country E.

"I've heard about it, and I've agreed to the capital verification!" said the mayor of Chelyabinsk at this time.

"Our union agreed to verify the capital!"

"Our asset management committee also agreed to verify the capital!"

The officials of country E present at the scene said that after all, the fraud case was very big, and all the former Soviet Union countries had heard about it.

"Our company has limited strength and wants to withdraw from the auction of the Chelyabin Iron and Steel Plant!" said a consortium from country M suddenly.

"Let's quit too!" The remaining local businessmen in country E also followed suit, saying that there are really few companies in country E that can get this amount of money.

"And what about your decision, Mr. Louis?" said the man from the auction committee.

"I ......" Louis heard this question and looked at the director of the factory Geldarsky with a pale face.

Director Gairdsky shook his head helplessly, and then covered his eyes with a headache.

"I'm quitting ...... too," Louis said.

****

Now only Jia Lei and a steel company from country M are left in the auction hall, and the two sides have begun a fierce competition for 20 percent of the shares of the Cheliyabin Iron and Steel Plant.

"$5 million!" Jia Lei said first.

People from the steel mills in five countries held up signs and said.

"$5.5 million!" Jia Lei immediately shouted.

"$5.7 million!" the men at the steel plant in country M continued to raise the price.

"5.8 million US dollars, Cheli Yabin Iron and Steel Plant has so much debt, does your company really want to buy it?" Jia Lei glanced at the other party and asked.

"$6 million! Our company is looking to expand and develop new business directions in Asia, and the purchase of this steel mill is a good fit for us. ”

"$6.2 million! Doesn't the right thing mean it's the best! There are so many steel mills in the Chelyabinsk region, you don't necessarily have to buy one?" Mr. Jia reminded them.

"$6.3 million, but the size and volume of this house is just what we want. ”

"$7.3 million! But even if you buy these shares, you only have 20 percent of the shares in the steel plant, and you can't get the right to speak in the steel plant by relying on these shares. Jia Lei said.

"What do you mean by that?" asked the man from the Iron and Steel Plant in Country M in surprise after hurriedly holding up the sign.

"Now that the starting price is $7.31 million, are you sure you will only add $10,000?" the auctioneer asked in surprise.

According to the auction rules, the price increase is less than $10,000 each time, and the auction house will increase the price by $10,000 by default if the customer does not shout but only raises the card.

"As you saw just now, I have already bought most of the shares of the Cheliyabin Iron and Steel Plant in advance, and even if your company auctions off this 20% of the shares, it will not be able to get a controlling stake. Jia Lei said as he held up the sign.

"The price is $7.32 million now!

Who would have thought that the two people who were competing just now would actually start chatting.

"Oh, is that so, we were going to go to the steel mills and collect the shares of the other workers, so that we would definitely get more than 50 percent of the shares. The other party said and raised the card again, raising the auction price to $7.33 million.

In fact, even without that 20 percent stake, my partner and I already have more than 55 percent of the shares in the steel plant. I'm afraid you won't be able to receive the shares!" Jia Lei said, raising his cards again.

The strange thing is that the other party didn't follow this time!

"Who is your partner?" asked the man from the Iron and Steel Plant in Country M, particularly seriously.

"My partner is the director of the Chelyabin Iron and Steel Plant, Geldarsky!" Jia Lei said and stood up and walked over like the director of the Geldarsky plant.

"My dear partner, is there something wrong with you suddenly coming to me?" said Director Geldarsky anxiously asked Jia Lei.

"No problem! Don't worry, I think we can celebrate in advance. Jia Lei said and gave a hug to the sitting director of the factory.

"It's already time to celebrate in advance, that's great!" said Director Geldarsky, whose face was red and white.

"It turns out that they are really a gang? It seems that we have been fooled, let's go!" After saying that, the people from the Iron and Steel Plant in Country M threw down the number plate and left in a huff.

"Hey, why are you leaving, the auction isn't over yet?" shouted the auctioneer anxiously.

"Since they've all given up on the auction, you'd better announce the results, right?" said Director Geldarski angrily.

"$7.34 million for the first time!$7,340,000 for the second time!$7,340,000 for the third time!!!!!

"I announce that the final auction price of the Chelyabin Steel Plant is $7.34 million!" the chairman of the auction committee happily announced.
