The president of the factory, with all the senior managers, stood respectfully at the door of the office building and waited for them.

The Lincoln sedan stopped first, and an island driver quickly stepped out of the car, nodded and opened the door for the boss.

An American man in his fifties, with dark brown hair, on crutches and wearing a high-end handmade suit, appeared in front of everyone.

Behind him, there was also a young man in a black suit and a reference book in his hand, like an investment consultant, who looked like an elite person in high society.

The Mercedes-Benz car behind also stopped, and a group of five big bodyguards and three thick bodyguards came out of the car, unceremoniously squeezing the crowd of onlookers away.

"This is the famous Kasawara Heavy Machinery Factory in Shimane Prefecture?"

"Why are you so shabby?"

Ignoring the outstretched hand of the company's president, the American billionaire leaned on crutches and looked around, looking at the dilapidated low-rise buildings, frowning, and speaking in long-term English.

There are many people in the management of the factory who understand English.

The slightly chubby middle-aged president, for fear that the buyer would leave, he immediately said as if flattering: "Sir, although these buildings are dilapidated, we have very good maintenance of the equipment inside, all of them seem to have just entered the factory, you might as well come to our office and sit down, our boss will soon take a plane from Tokyo, and you can arrive in the evening." ”

"Really? Let's take a look at the equipment, and I'd like to see it on the spot before I can make a decision. ”

This American tycoon is a doer, and he is now on crutches and ready to go to the factory to see the equipment.

The chubby middle-aged president was suddenly anxious, and said with some embarrassment on his face: "This, it's better to wait until the boss comes and let him introduce you in person, how about it?" ”

He bragged before, a lot of the equipment in the factory, because it has not been turned on all year round, is dilapidated, and a lot of it is full of dust.

If this American billionaire saw the equipment in the factory, would he turn around on the spot and walk away?

"No need! Our time is precious, and the first-hand information we have is crucial for us to assess the value of your factory. The young people behind the rich man firmly demanded to go into the factory for a field trip.

The president insisted, and seeing that several people were already walking towards the factory under the escort of bodyguards, he quickly exchanged glances with the rest of the company's management and quickly followed.

Things turned out to be as he feared, the American billionaire named LeBron was very dissatisfied with every piece of equipment in the factory.

And the young man like the investment consultant has also been accused many times, aren't the island people known as craftsmen and meticulous in their work? It's so disappointing.

These idle workers, including equipment, are old guys in the sixties and seventies, and they should have been eliminated a long time ago!

It wasn't until about six o'clock in the evening that the owner of the factory, who arrived in a hurry by plane from Tokyo, humbly invited them out of the factory.

On the way, the factory owner has already checked the identity of this rich American, and LeBron is indeed a real American.

Judging by the southern accent he spoke, he was probably from Florida, and the information showed that he was only a retired engineer.

At the beginning of this year, there was a wave of IPOs of American technology companies.

The company he held the original shares, because of its business cooperation with Microsoft, so with the skyrocketing price of Microsoft's stock, the stock price of their company also rose wildly after going public, and he was lucky to become a billionaire.

But he also realized that the rally in U.S. technology stocks has completely deviated from the concept of value investing and lost the support of fundamentals.

It is precisely because of this that he made up his mind to sell the stocks in his hands and do business in a down-to-earth manner to keep his hard-won wealth.

After confirming the authenticity of the buyer's identity, the people of Kasahara Heavy Machinery Factory were about to cheer.

The boss and the president tried their best to curry favor with LeBron, while boasting about the advantages of their factory, hoping that he would take over the machine factory.

Fortunately, this rich American man seems to have a soft spot for this factory, although in his mouth, this factory is degraded as useless, but he has never withdrawn.

This can be seen from this.

After a month of negotiations, the factory owner finally sold the factory to LeBron for $80 million.

But there is also a condition, that is, to be responsible for the position of factory workers, retirement, resettlement and other issues.

After all, regular employees in island countries will generally not be dismissed easily unless they have a major fault that cannot be remedied.

Not to mention the fact that there are more than 1,000 people, and in Shimane Prefecture, the poorest part of the island nation, these people are the breadwinners of many families.

After thinking about it for a few minutes, LeBron agreed to the request.

After signing a series of agreements, the former owner of the factory took the check cashed by LeBron, happily returned to Tokyo, and continued his life of spending all day and drinking.

But the workers of the Kasawara Heavy Machinery Factory didn't know this, and they were all waiting for the assignment of the American boss with fear.

A lot of people have been in the machinery industry all their lives, and in case they are laid off, they will not know how to survive.

LeBron is an authentic American and a resolute man.

He soon invited a professional team from the United States to give professional advice on the overall layout and equipment of the factory.

In view of LeBron's desire to build a global advanced heavy machinery factory, they suggested that all obsolete equipment should be disposed of, and new equipment should be purchased directly to rebuild a modern factory.

LeBron accepted the formula.

Most of the equipment in the factory is old, and if you want them to continue to shine, the annual maintenance cost is a lot of money.

It's better to buy new equipment outright.

Soon, in the complicated mood of the factory employees, the old equipment in the factory was dismantled and sold one by one.

In just one month, the Kasahara Heavy Machinery Factory was left with empty factory shelves.

Fortunately, the American boss immediately gave them a reassurance.

He had a huge planning board erected in front of the factory headquarters building, on which were the "new factory area" carefully designed by American experts.

It is extremely spacious, depicting a beautiful modern factory.

All kinds of infrastructure, streets, clean workshops, and brand-new office buildings are like a big pie, which makes all employees have infinite reverie for the future.

Immediately afterwards, the factory buildings, office buildings, and staff dormitories in the factory area were razed to the ground by large engineering vehicles.

With the expectation of a better future, all the workers received their wages for up to half a year, and happily went home to wait.

The management of the factory often comes to the factory to meet and help the boss deal with various affairs.

In addition to this, they have the task of being trained in "American management".
