Chapter 239: Bankruptcy
"Uncle, what's the matter?"
When Wu Tianzheng accompanied Bai Jie to inspect the new site of Fengyun Company, he received a pager from Wu Jianjun.
Not long ago, according to Wu Tian's instructions, Bai Jie took down the land with nearly thirty acres and was preparing to start construction. However, now this neighborhood is still a little desolate, and you have to run two miles to find a public phone, Wu Tian can only take a hasty look at the venue, so he beckoned back to Fengyun Company, ran to Bai Jie's office, grabbed the phone and called Wu Jianjun back.
"Xiaotian, County Magistrate Cao came to the village just now." Wu Jianjun said.
"Huh? Is it for the sake of the beverage factory? Wu Tiandao, "What does he mean?" β
"Lower prices." Wu Jianjun said.
After Wu Tian and Lin Junming finished talking the day before yesterday, Lin Junming came to say yesterday that the Lin family was willing to bid 25 million, accounting for 20 percent of the shares.
To say that this price is also fair, only counting the current fixed assets of Tianyuan Beverage Factory, it is probably like this, even if it is estimated with this year's profit expectations, this price is quite fair. Compared with the original proposal to build a production plant with the same production capacity as the current one, it has increased a lot -- just building a production plant, not counting the cost of supporting facilities and channel construction, more than 10 million is enough.
It's just that Wu Tian doesn't think so, he knows very well how high the explosion of the beverage market will be in the next few years, and the Lin family's vision is not bad, so he can definitely calculate how cost-effective this business is!
Although Wu Tian was willing to let the Lin family take a stake in Tianyuan Beverage, he would never agree to let them take such a big advantage of him. asked Lin Junming to bring back the words. If you want to buy shares, those sincerity will come out. Million. Thirty percent, if you want to do it, if you don't want to pull it!
Lin Junming has obviously brought the words to him, and the other party is really as Wu Tian expected, he invited relevant people to come forward, wanting to borrow special means to pressure Wujia Village to comply!
"How much?" Wu Tian asked.
"Thirty million, thirty percent." Wu Jianjun said angrily.
"Huh? So awesome? Wu Tian was also a little stunned. That's a lot lower than the 25 million and 20 percent they agreed to in the first place!
"Hmph, this County Magistrate Cao is not an ordinary bull!" Wu Jianjun said angrily, "When I came just now, four cars came at once, with their hands behind their backs and their heads up, still expecting me to bow to him?" I'm not going to have this kind of style when Vice Governor Liu and Mayor Yuan came to our village to inspect! When your father was at home some time ago, this county magistrate Cao also came once. I didn't see him pull like this that time, your dad has only been studying for a few days. His tail is up to the sky? β
Wu Tian listened to the uncle's venting, but he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic and provoked: "Uncle, don't you look at who you are surnamed Cao?" If he dares to put on a score, then you won't spit on him? β
Wu Jianjun is also a man of the year now, since the winery has become popular, there have been a lot of various titles, the original village party secretary is still in charge, and the name of the director of Dahe Distillery has also been replaced by the general manager, and he has also become a member of the Standing Committee of the Shangdong County CPPCC, a representative of the Municipal People's Congress, as for the vice president of the private entrepreneur association, the director of the Municipal Federation of Industry and Commerce, and other false titles are countless, that is, to go to the city for a meeting, the general deputy mayor has to be polite when he sees it.
Wu Jianjun's voice was a little twisted and said, "He is a county magistrate." But although I didn't spit on him, your second brother and third brother called a bunch of village boys and pulled a few bubbles of on the hoods of those cars. β
"Uh......" Wu Tian was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed and stomped his feet, almost out of breath.
Wu Jianjun couldn't help but laugh with Wu Tian, although the second and third were mischievous, Wu Jianjun had to reprimand them to the county magistrate Cao with a tiger face, but now that he thinks about it later, he is really relieved, and let his surname Cao be a big-tailed wolf!
It was easy to wait for Wu Tian's laughter to stop, and Wu Jianjun asked again: "Xiaotian, the matter of County Magistrate Cao is not good, leave a word, let us think about it quickly, and give him an answer tomorrow." β
"Well, uncle, don't worry, I'll be in the mall, wait for me to discuss it with Mr. Bai and Mr. Chang." Wu Tian said.
"Okay, I'll wait for your call." Wu Jianjun responded.
Although Wu Tian had already revealed that Fengyun Company had his share, Wu Tian did not really tell the uncle how much he occupied. In Wu Jianjun's view, although Wu Tian is too smart, he can call the shots in most things in the winery and beverage factory, but this kind of big problem of accepting other people's shares still requires the consent of the real big boss.
*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
"What were you laughing at just now, laughing so hard?" Bai Jie saw that Wu Tian hung up the phone, so he couldn't help but ask.
Wu Tian told the "incident", which made Bai Jie and Yang Xiaoya laugh too, and Bai Jie said again, "This kid is too naughty, isn't this deliberately disgusting?" β
"This kind of person has to be disgusting and disgusting him!" Wu Tianyi pursed his lips and said.
County Magistrate Cao has been in office for more than half a year, and when he came to Shangdong County, it took a lot of twists and turns. Not to mention that for the sake of the big peach in Shangdong County, Wu Jianguo suffered a storm, and after the incident, no one dared to stretch out his hand anymore for the position of secretary of the county party committee, and it was determined to fall on Wu Jianguo's head, and the candidate for the county magistrate caused a dispute. At that time, although Liu Wencheng had a great right to speak in the city, Wu Jianguo was Secretary Liu's person, and he naturally did not want to take the position of county magistrate on his own plate, Yuan Chenyang had the intention to pick up a bargain, but he didn't want the province to think that the big guy opened his mouth - he also made some efforts in the Wu Jianguo incident at the beginning, and the vacated seats in the province and the city could not be his turn, so he set his sights on Shangdong County.
Although Yuan Chenyang was not very willing to give up this position. But it's time for a change. Yuan Chenyang was anxious to stay in office. In order to get the big guy to help him vote in favor of this matter, he also compromised, and this was the result of the county magistrate Cao taking office in Shangdong County.
After the county magistrate Cao took office, he was also a little ambitious at first, but several of the governance plans he put forward were rejected because they contradicted Wu Jianguo's original long-term plan for Shangdong County -- Wu Jianguo's plan for Shangdong County was to rely on the two urban areas of the mall and the eastern capital to build the mall into a satellite city. With vegetables, breeding and food deep processing as the main industries, in order to drive the economic development of the county. However, the plan of the county magistrate Cao is to vigorously develop industrial production, prepare to increase capital investment, renovate and expand the fertilizer factory, the paper mill, and build a new cement factory to provide building materials for the development of the mall -- he also does not want to think that there is no mountain in Shangdong County, and the cement factory is completed, and limestone must be transported from more than 200 miles away!
Poor county magistrate Cao's first fire after taking office didn't burn up. At the meeting, he was also criticized by the deputy county magistrates of the county from head to toe -- after Wu Jianguo took over the right to speak, he has always paid great attention to influencing and cultivating his colleagues. Now that the deputy county magistrates of the county government are working hard to improve their abilities, for fear of being overtaken by others, how can the flawed planning plan of the county magistrate Cao be accepted by them?
Immediately afterwards, the big guy who recommended the county magistrate Cao to go to Shangdong County suddenly retired from the second line in advance due to physical reasons, and the county magistrate Cao had no backer, and his ability was not enough to convince the public, so he quickly became low-key, and then did not rush forward, and began to work all day long.
Now it seems that County Magistrate Cao has re-connected with Mayor Chen, plus Wu Jianguo went to study at the party school, and let him preside over the daily work of the county......
"Xiaotian, then how are you going to respond to the county?" Bai Jie asked about Wu Tianzheng.
"Well, when you call my uncle, you will say 50 million, 40 percent, or 40 million, 30 percent, give them these two choices, and don't agree to anything else." Wu Tian said.
"Forty percent? It's too much, isn't it? Will there be trouble in the future? Bai Jie frowned.
"Alas, one more point is one point, the pressure here is greater, the pressure over there will be less......" Wu Tian sighed and said, "What's the situation over there now?" β
"Mayor Chen's attitude is very tough, and several leaders in the city have relaxed their tone a lot." Bai Jie shook his head and said, "I really don't understand, even a profitable factory can declare bankruptcy?" What kind of logic is this! β
"Official and business logic!" Wu Tian sneered and said.
The Lin family's wrist is really powerful, and Mayor Chen is really hardworking, in order to let the Lin family eat the city's No. 1 Machinery Factory, he even filed for bankruptcy with a profit of nearly one million last year!
At this time, the first company in China to officially declare bankruptcy had just been born for more than a month, and the Lin family could think of using this method, which could be regarded as bold and courageous enough, and Wu Tiandu had to admire the business wisdom of the Lin family!
"Don't talk about this Mayor Chen, those leaders in the city will let go, I really don't understand how they can agree, isn't this an elbow turned out, giving away the interests of the mall?" White and clean airway.
"Hehe, the interests of the mall belong to the people of the mall, and they can't fit in their own pockets, who cares so much about you?" Wu Tian shook his head with a smile and said, "Come on, the leaders of the city can't count on it, aren't there still us?" No matter how much they want to toss, they have to pass our level first! β
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** *************
Shangcheng No. 1 Machinery Factory does have a lot of non-performing assets, and a few years ago, the No. 1 Machinery Factory was like most state-owned enterprises in this year. The burden is heavy. The business philosophy is backward. Not only did there be no profit, but there was also some loss. In order to develop instant noodle production lines, beverage filling lines and other equipment, the factory borrowed more than 10 million funds from the bank, and after the successful development, it was decided to achieve mass production of the product, and successively borrowed more than 30 million yuan to purchase some processing equipment. Last year, the goal of annual profit of nearly one million was achieved, and judging from the current orders, this year's profit can be directly doubled.
However, under the relevant operation of the city, the accounts of the First Machinery Factory turned out to be a loss-making all the time, and the debt ratio was as high as more than 85 percent!
This trick is actually very simple, only used in the estimation of fixed assets in the factory, it is enough to estimate lower, to know that the fixed assets of the machinery manufacturing industry are much higher than other industries, and the price of those large machine tools and equipment is very expensive, in the case of the first machinery factory. The original old equipment was accumulated in the decades after the establishment of the factory, and the actual assets are estimated to be more than 30 million. In the past two years, the equipment purchased from the bank loan is enough to 30 or 40 million, not to mention the large land and factory buildings in the factory, as well as a large number of skilled craftsmen!
If Wu Tian is allowed to valu, the current No. 1 Machinery Factory, after removing debts, is worth at least more than 100 million!
But such a large factory, after the city's evaluation, only quoted a price worth less than 40 million, plus a loan of more than 30 million, and in the end only a few million were left!
It's just bold and crazy!
The director of the city's No. 1 Machinery Factory raised strong objections to this, but then he was transferred from the post of factory director and arranged to be in charge of logistics work in the Second Light Bureau......
After hearing this assessment, Wu Tian was also very angry, and then after hearing that Mayor Chen formally raised the issue of the First Machinery Factory at the meeting of the municipal government office, he completely lost his temper -- Mayor Chen proposed to bankrupt and liquidate the First Machinery Factory and sell the remaining assets to the outside world, which could also reduce the burden on the city and strive for some funds.
And this open-eyed and nonsense mention yì actually won the support of many deputy mayors on the government's side!
As a result, in mid-September, the city officially submitted an application to the province for the bankruptcy liquidation of the First Machinery Factory.
At the same time, the Lin family also responded to Wu Tian's final offer - the county magistrate Cao came to Wujia Village again.
This time, the county magistrate Cao came, but he played a supporting role, and he personally accompanied Lin Junting, the current head of the Lin family, and Lin Boss was even more high-profile, and he arrived in Wujia Village in Mayor Chen's Audi, which showed that the background was strong!
This negotiation is obviously a formal confrontation, and Lin Junting's reply to the final price offered by Wujiacun is that they can come up with 50 million, but they are required to account for 45% of the shares!
Wu Jianjun did not give an inch, and only agreed to 40 percent.
After a day of confrontation, the county magistrate Cao put pressure on Wu Jianjun openly and secretly, and finally the negotiations were a complete success, and it was finally decided that the Lin family would invest 50 million yuan and obtain 42% of the shares of Tianyuan Beverage Factory!
Lin Junting was quite satisfied with this result, and his original plan was that if Wujiacun was too tough, even if it was 50 million and 40 percent, he could accept it.
Because of Lin Junting's calculation, Tianyuan Beverage Factory itself accounts for 40% of the shares, plus after the dilution of capital injection, Lin Junming will still retain 12% of the shares, and the two brothers have joined forces, which has exceeded the absolute half, and will fully own the company's control rights!
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** *************
"Xiaotian, tell me what's going on in the beverage factory!" Wu Jianguo said to Wu Tian with a straight face.
Although Wu Jianguo went to the provincial party school to study, after all, the mall is the provincial capital, and Shangdong County's every move cannot be hidden from him. Available on weekends. Wu Jianguo still has time to go back to the county. Dealing with something important.
As early as the first time the county magistrate Cao went to Wujia Village, Wu Jianguo received a call from the county, Wu Jianguo was naturally angry, this surnamed Cao, he wouldn't pick a place with his tail cocked, don't you know that I, Wu Jianguo, am from Wujia Village, and Wu Jianjun is my eldest brother?
However, before Wu Jianguo could figure out how to deal with this problem, Wu Tian called. Let my father leave the beverage factory alone, just let the Lin family and County Magistrate Cao toss. Wu Jianguo was full of suspicions, but he didn't express his position on this matter, who knew that it had only been a week, and it was rumored that the Lin family had invested in the beverage factory, so Wu Jianguo had to pay attention to it, and ran back to Shangdong County on Sunday, and arrested his son for interrogation first.
"Hehe, it's just normal business activities, nothing." Wu Tian said with a hippie smile.
"You give me a serious point. Honestly, what's going on! Wu Jianguo shouted loudly.
"Uh......" Wu Tian saw that his father was really a little angry. I couldn't help but shrink my neck and said, "This question is a bit complicated......
"Then take it slowly, I have time today!" Wu Jianguo said with a straight face.
"Hmm...... Dad, do you know about the city's No. 1 Machinery Factory? Wu Tian asked.
"Huh? How did you get on the machine shop? Wu Jianguo said with a puzzled face.
"Actually, these two things are related." Wu Tian said, "The reason for the bankruptcy of the First Machinery Factory is not the continuous losses announced by the city, but because the Lin family fell in love with the First Machinery Factory and wanted to put the First Machinery Factory into his own pocket, so Mayor Chen made such a bankruptcy incident." β
"Don't talk nonsense, how can you be so sure?" Wu Jianguo frowned and said.
In fact, it is no wonder that Wu Jianguo suspects that the current loss of the First Machinery Factory has long been known to the whole city, and the city has not released any rumors that the Lin Group wants to acquire the First Machinery Factory, and ordinary people definitely link these two issues together.
Wu Tian pursed his lips and didn't explain his father's suspicions at all, so he just continued: "The original assets of the First Machinery Factory should be more than 100 million, even if you exclude the bank loan, it will not be less than 80 million, with the strength of the Lin family, even if you can eat it, it will be a little difficult." At the same time, they also saw that the beverage business was making money quickly, and their eyes were hot, so they wanted to invest 10 million or 20 million yuan and get 120 percent of the shares, which would have little impact on them. In the end, I gave my uncle the idea that they should take 50 million, which would almost take up their available funds, and they would not have much ability to eat the First Machinery Factory, unless they were bold enough to keep the assets of the First Machinery Factory low enough! β
Wu Jianguo looked at his son, frowned deeply, and said in a deep voice: "You don't want to make a fuss about the asset evaluation of the First Machinery Factory, do you?" β
"What can I do with the article? Uncle Liu has to come forward to make this article! Wu Tian said.
"Uh...... What do you want to do? Wu Jianguo said in surprise.
You must know that now the city has made an asset assessment of the first machinery factory, and sure enough, it has pressed the factory with assets of hundreds of millions to Cheng DΓΉ, whose remaining assets are less than 10 million.
"What can I do, this matter, you better tell Uncle Liu first, just see what he wants to do, I have a child, where can I manage so much?" Wu Tian put on a posture and directly shook his hands.
"You ......" Wu Jianguo rolled his eyes angrily, turned his head helplessly, and frowned thinking about this matter.
What kind of evil is his son, he can do such a complicated thing, first use the shares of the beverage factory, attract the Lin family to transfer a large amount of money to the beverage factory, can only take the risk to depress the assets of the first machinery factory, so that the problem of the first machinery factory is extremely risky, it is easy to be broken, and once the problem of the first machinery factory is exploded, the Lin family will naturally have no ability to contaminate the beverage factory......
One ring after another, it's just too tight......
"Xiaotian, tell me the truth, how much does the beverage factory have to do with you?" Wu Jianguo suddenly asked again.
"Huh? Why do you ask about this? Wu Tian was stunned.
"I don't believe your uncle will listen to you like that." Wu Jianguo said.
"Alas, my uncle listened to me not because I took the shares of the beverage factory, but because I didn't lose the idea of the beverage factory, and I didn't really want to sell the shares of the beverage factory, but I just agreed to the Lin family's request first, and then just dragged on the non-stop negotiation and didn't sign." Wu Tian said, "You better hurry up and contact Uncle Liu and tell me about the situation." β
Wu Jianguo was so confused by Wu Tian, he didn't ask about Wu Tian's assets, grabbed the phone and called Liu Wencheng.
Wu Tian listened with his ears on the side, but he couldn't hear clearly, so he waited for his father to hang up the phone and quickly asked.
"Your Uncle Liu said that he had also noticed the situation of the First Machinery Factory for a long time, and the province would definitely not agree to the bankruptcy application reported by the city." Wu Jianguo said.
Wu Tian pursed his lips and said, "Uncle Liu is familiar with the situation in the city, he will be suspicious and will not agree to go bankrupt, but other people may not be able to say it." β
Wu Jianguo shook his head and was about to speak, Wu Tian's pager rang, Wu Jianguo couldn't help glaring at this kid, he hadn't used it yet, but his son hung up first, which was really annoying!
Wu Tian laughed dryly, but when he didn't see his father's jealous gaze, he ran to grab the phone and went back.
"Xiaotian, let you guess, the First Machinery Factory is on strike!" Xiao Dadong's voice came out of the phone.
"So fast?" Wu Tian said.
"There are more than 300 workers in the factory, blocking the gate of the factory, holding banners saying that wages will be paid, wages will be raised, and the workers in the factory will eat, etc., and other workers in the factory are slowly joining in......," Xiao Dadong said.
"Okay, I know." Wu Tian said and hung up the phone.
"What did you just say? Strike? Wu Jianguo also heard a word and asked, frowning.
"The workers of the No. 1 Machinery Factory went on strike and demanded a wage increase and a wage increase." Wu Tian said lightly.
"What? The First Machinery Factory doesn't seem to have been in arrears of wages...... "Wu Jianguo said.
"It's in arrears, and last month's salary hasn't been paid." Wu Tian said lightly.
"Uh......" Wu Jianguo was even more surprised, you must know that it is too normal to be in arrears for one or two months' wages this year, even if it is in arrears for half a year, it is not surprising that the First Machinery Factory has only dragged on for a few days? Half a month has not arrived, and there is a strike? There's a reason for that!
Build momentum!
If the first machine factory goes on strike every day, it will be noisy. Okay, I'm afraid that it won't be long before the name of the "loss-making enterprise" is really confirmed, and the bankruptcy application is likely to be accepted by the above.
As for the issue of assets, I am afraid that no one will consider it in the first place, after all, stability is the first priority - the First Machinery Factory is a large factory with nearly 2,000 employees, and once it makes trouble, the problem is quite strict!
Wu Jianguo thought through the joints, and suddenly became anxious again, grabbed the phone and called Liu Wencheng again...... (To be continued......)
