Chapter 45 Bidding for Canneries

I nodded and smiled at Director Mu and sat back in my seat. He sat in the front row, and I noticed that he stole a glance at me from time to time, and I certainly didn't know what was going on in his mind.

I thought that there would be a few units to come to bid, but in the end I found that only me and Director Mu had submitted the bid. I muttered to myself.

The canning factory has 100 acres of land, and although this factory is not large, this piece of land is worth a lot of money! Even if you don't make canned food, it's not impossible to use it for other trades, so why is no one interested? Could it be that there is a cat in it?

Maybe I don't know much about canneries, and since I'm here, I'm going to have to wait for the results to see what the hell is going on. If there are some irreconcilable contradictions, I may give up.

It wasn't until 9:00 that seven or eight people came to the ** stage to announce the start of the bidding meeting.

Deputy county magistrate Huang presided over the meeting. First of all, he introduced the current situation of Minli Cannery, and what he said was very simple, similar to the information published on the Internet. Then the county decided to carry out bankruptcy reorganization, solicited bids from the public, and made it clear that the winning bidder could operate other projects.

This is exactly what I want, and if I want to continue to produce canned fruit, I can't expand my business due to restrictions.

It was confirmed by Deputy County Magistrate Huang that there were only two bidders. Director Mu submitted the bid in his own name, while I bid in the name of the Shigou Village Characteristic Ecological Company.

Originally, they could directly announce the results of the winning bid, but Deputy County Magistrate Huang said that because there were only two bidders, let us talk about the development plan after winning the bid on the spot, and the bidding team will study and decide.

Director Mu was the first to be named and took the stage to introduce.

His name is Mu Zhiming, 40 years old this year, he has worked in a canning factory for 20 years, and has been a factory director for five years. Because of market reasons, canned fruit has become an obsolete food, and the development prospects are bleak, which has led to the loss of the factory and has become insolvent.

Taking the opportunity of bankruptcy, he wanted to change the fate of the cannery. If he wins the bid, he will adopt the method of social recruitment to raise funds, first consider internal employees, and use the money to repay bank loans, social security debts, workers' wages, and business debts.

The canning factory is located on the east side of Loess County, with two main roads to the east and north, and the geographical location is quite good. He plans to develop the land of the canning factory for commercial housing, which can build at least four high-rise buildings, and according to the current market of commercial housing, he can make a lot of money. Then the money earned will be distributed to the employees who raise funds, and the employees can get a lot of income, at least ten or eight years of life without problems.

Now there are more than 300 employees in the cannery, most of whom are over 50 years old, and basically retire after 10 years.

He concluded that developing real estate was the best option for the canneries at the moment.

Scarce applause rang out.

Next, I will take the stage to explain my development plan.

I didn't talk as much as Director Mu, but only said three points.

1. The canning factory is still a canning factory, but it needs to innovate, improve, and transform to create its own unique products to adapt to the market.

Second, I will pay off all the debts of the cannery, including bank loans, social security arrears, workers' wages and supplier arrears.

3. All registered workers will have proper arrangements. Of course, I made it clear that I wanted to compete for the post, and I gave a three-month deadline. For the elimination of incompetent workers, I hope that the county will help relieve their worries and give them the treatment of bankrupt enterprises.

I spoke on stage for a maximum of two minutes, and the room was so quiet that I could hear a pin dropping. About ten seconds later, Deputy County Magistrate Huang took the lead in applauding, and the initial applause was sparse, but later it became enthusiastic.

I walked off the stage amid applause, and found that the most energetic people who applauded were the dozen or so people sitting around Director Mu, accompanied by continuous applause. **The leaders on the stage have stopped applauding, their hands are still clapping, and even a few ups and downs have formed several climaxes.

Deputy County Magistrate Huang took the lead in applauding again, maybe his hand was a little painful, and then he signaled everyone to stop.

"You will rest for a while, the bidding team will discuss and study, and the winning results will be announced later."

The leader of the group leaves the conference room.

The conference room suddenly became lively, and people came up to me and began to ask about me, my origins, and even my agricultural company.

When I answered their questions one by one, I noticed that Director Mu turned his head to look at me, and his eyes seemed to be a little resentful.

When he finished his speech just now, there was only sparse applause, and the effect of the two sides after the speech was in stark contrast, and he seemed to be very angry.

Of course, I don't care what he thinks, since we are all bidders, we are naturally competitors, and there are joys and sorrows.

Those who were curious about me said they had not heard of my Shigou Village Characteristic Ecological Company. I smiled and didn't explain. I don't know who they are, and I don't want to give my details too soon.

In response to their questions, I hummed and responded superficially.

Someone asked, how do I treat the employees of the enterprise and how to carry out the survival of the fittest?

In fact, I just have an idea for these, and the specific plan has not been thought of yet, and this idea is still Bai Luoxue came up for me. Regarding the specific plan, it is necessary to wait for the detailed planning after winning the bid, thinking too early, and if you don't win the bid, you won't be busy in vain.

Seeing that I said less, some people were interested in not asking more. One of them seemed to be very interested in me, indicating that he was a worker in the cannery, and that he had come to the tender meeting as a representative of the workers to supervise the fairness of the tender on the spot, to ensure that the tender was open and transparent, and that there was no black-box operation.

He said these words in a low voice, almost whispered in my ear, and only I could hear them.

I understand, he is to prevent Director Mu from listening.

I smiled faintly and said nothing, after all, the results of the tender have not yet been announced. I may be just a passer-by, not necessarily winning the bid, and talking too much with these employees is not good for them.

At this time, I found that Director Mu's gaze towards this group of people was even more resentful. The men ignored his expression, as if they didn't care if he was happy, sad, or hateful, as if he didn't exist.

During the period of waiting for the county leaders to announce the winning bid, no one came to Director Mu's side to talk to him. He sat in the front seat, drank mineral water vigorously, drank a bottle of water, and the empty plastic bottle was still in his hand, and finally kneaded the plastic bottle into a ball, and still clutched it.
