Chapter 90: Breaking and Standing Up
Fan Xiaoyi had to ask the old man, and finally determined that this was really the company. But the old man waved his hand helplessly, "No, everyone is leaving, you come now, and you can't find anyone." ”
Liao Mingfei looked around, "Are you the only one in the company now?" ”
"Almost."
The two communicated with the old man for a long time before finally understanding what the situation was.
It turns out that just half a year ago, the company was a well-run trading company and had the ambition to move here and build its own large warehouse.
However, because of a mistake in investment decision, the company suffered heavy losses, resulting in the rupture of the capital chain, and the company's operation has been in trouble since then.
Despite the predicament, the boss is still trying to save it. They moved here in preparation for a new warehouse. However, the capital chain was broken, and the large warehouse that had just dug the foundation became a bubble. In the end, I had to hurriedly build a temporary small warehouse, and the young general was on it.
However, when people are unlucky, they stuff their teeth when they drink cold water. Just when the boss was almost worried about money overnight, because of the economic downturn this year, one of the largest downstream retailers they had cooperated with for many years canceled the order because it had to adjust its sales strategy. A large number of goods are unsalable, but the daily expenses continue. Every day, people come to the door to collect money, and the bank repeatedly reminds them to repay the loan, and the capital chain can no longer be saved, and the operation can no longer be sustained.
Extremely disappointed, the boss dismissed most of the employees, leaving only a few people to guard, trying to repay the bank loan first. The company exists in name only.
After listening to the old man's complaints, Fan Xiaoyi and Liao Mingfei seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water on their heads. On a hot day, I felt a chill to the bone.
The old man was still helplessly pointing to the small warehouse behind him, "Now there is no one to sell anything, and the salesmen are almost dismissed, and there are only so many goods left, and they can't be turned into money." ”
Fan Xiaoyi couldn't hear what he was saying clearly.
Nearly fifty thousand.
Perhaps for large companies, it's just a drop in the bucket. But for a small workshop like them, if such a payment cannot be recovered, the capital chain will be broken, and the bank loan will not be repaid, and it may even break the bones!
The sun in the summer was shining brightly, and it was obviously too hot to work, but Fan Xiaoyi felt cold hands and feet.
Obviously, she has worked so hard to get to where she is today, but because of such a failed payment, will she fall short? How can she be worthy of the cousin who lent her money, how can she be worthy of the original proprietress who earnestly hopes that she will take over, and how can she be worthy of so many employees in the store.
What's right, Liao Mingfei, who has been supporting her.
What's wrong with herself?
Fan Xiaoyi suddenly felt that her eyes were a little blurry.
But he blinked quickly.
No, no, as long as things are not to the last step, there must be a chance to redeem it.
Just where are the opportunities for that?
Fan Xiaoyi forced herself to calm down.
Liao Mingfei suddenly held her hand.
Fan Xiaoyi looked up in amazement.
saw Liao Mingfei's eyes resolute, and said word by word, "I have an idea." ”
Fan Xiaoyi subconsciously asked, "What do you think?" ”
However, when she really listened to Liao Mingfei's words word by word, she felt a sense of unreality. It took a long time to come back to his senses in disbelief, "This ...... Can it be done? ”
Liao Mingfei looked at her seriously, "I don't know if I can do it, but I think it can be done." Do you dare to take a gamble? ”
"What if I lose the bet?" Fan Xiaoyi asked with some uncertainty.
"So that's the bet. In case the bet is lost, we risk going back to last year overnight. Liao Mingfei smiled bitterly.
Fan Xiaoyi took a few deep breaths, her heart was beating extremely fast, but she was thinking about the feasibility of what Liao Mingfei said word by word in her mind.
It's gambling, it's risky, but it's completely viable.
Fan Xiaoyi thought for a long time, and finally said slowly, "Okay! ”
At most, it's just a return to the situation of last year when there were no stores. But now that she has Liao Mingfei and met Yuan Changming and his wife, even if she starts all over again, she is definitely confident that she is much better than before.
As soon as the word "good" came out, Liao Mingfei held her hand tightly, but suddenly relaxed. "Thank you." ”
Fan Xiaoyi was slightly surprised, "Thank you for what I did?" ”
Liao Mingfei suddenly laughed, bent down and kissed her on the cheek, "Thank you for trusting me so much." ”
Fan Xiaoyi thought for a moment before smiling, "My trust in you comes from everything you have done for me for so long. ”
Liao Mingfei took her hand and walked slowly, "I know." But thank you anyway. Not everyone has the courage to gamble like this with me. Thank you even more for daring to gamble with me with your own store. ”
Fan Xiaoyi shook her head, "That's because you don't want shares." As I said earlier, my shop is at least half as much as yours. No, it should be more than half. If it weren't for the products you researched, the store wouldn't be what it is now. ”
Liao Mingfei lowered his head and smiled, "It's useless to say this, we have to get through this pass in front of us now." ”
"Hmm."
The two re-called the buyer they had contacted and asked to see their boss.
Naturally, the boss wouldn't want to see them. Recently, there are too many people who have come to ask for debts, and if anyone can see the boss, I am afraid that the boss will be blocked for a long time, but I am afraid that I will find a short circuit.
Liao Mingfei ignored the smoke bombs put by the purchaser, directly clarified their situation, and then said: "I want to see your boss, not to ask for debts." Rather, there are new projects that I want to work with him. ”
Seeing that he already knew the inside story, the purchaser couldn't help but smile bitterly that the current people have come up with new tricks to collect debts, and use new projects to block the boss. When this kind of wall is pushed down by everyone, how can there be people to cooperate. I had to be sloppy, "The boss is really not there." ”
Liao Mingfei had just found out from the old man that the boss had been in Tianjin, so he said bluntly, "I'm here to open up new sales channels, you don't show up, I made an appointment with your boss to meet for more than an hour, if he hasn't called you yet, you can call the police." ”
Seeing that he had said this, the purchaser hesitated a little and said, "You really plan to cooperate." ”
"Of course. Or do you think I'm going to hang your boss for a mere 50,000 yuan? ”
The buyer laughed embarrassedly on the phone before giving him the boss's contact information.
Liao Mingfei persuaded the boss who was hiding outside to raise money on the phone and made an appointment for a time and place to meet in the evening.
Fan Xiaoyi looked at him and was really a little admired.
When they met in the evening, Fan Xiaoyi couldn't help but be a little surprised.
The owner of this company is called Qiangda, who is only 51 years old this year, but his hair is half gray. I don't know if it's due to the recent pressure.
Qiangda's face was haggard, and as soon as he entered the box door, he hurriedly shook his hand, sat down by himself, drank two glasses of water, wiped his mouth, and then asked embarrassedly, "What kind of cooperation do you say?" The rhetoric is still full of hesitation and defensiveness.
Liao Mingfei got straight to the point, "Do you want to break and stand up?" ”
