On Sunday night, the leaders of the engine factory met all night to study and finally made a decision: Dong Yannian would come forward to negotiate with the entertainment plaza and reach an agreement at the lowest possible cost.

Dong Yannian wisely brought Du Chengdong's father, Du Lixun, and came to the entertainment square again to negotiate. But what he didn't expect was that the opponent of this negotiation was not Du Chengdong, but Geng Wenyang, the real big boss of the entertainment plaza.

Dong Yannian saw that the other party was mature and steady, not arrogant or humble, obviously calmer than Du Chengdong, and said secretly in his heart: "No wonder the entertainment plaza is not in a hurry to deal with it, it turns out that the Du family kid has this young man behind him to back him." ”

There is a good saying: what you can't get on the battlefield, you can't get back at the negotiating table.

Since Geng Wenyang was sure that the engine factory had no way to take them, and was anxious to let them quit the leased space, he put forward three reasonable conditions that were not harsh.

The first is to fully refund the rent of 36,000 yuan paid this year, the second is to compensate for the decoration cost of 100,000 yuan, and the third is to compensate five times the annual lease fee of the site according to the contract of 180,000 yuan. The total of the three is $3.16 million.

Geng Wenyang said: "Originally, we still wanted you to compensate for the business losses during this time, but for the sake of Uncle Du's face, we didn't care. As long as you pay off the 316,000 yuan I just mentioned, we will leave immediately. ”

The engine plant has been struggling in recent years, and with the triangular debt problem, the cash flow on the books is almost non-existent. In order to pay wages and bonuses and festival expenses to the workers before the Spring Festival, the factory tried its best to raise 300,000 yuan. If you lose this money to Geng Wenyang, you won't be able to live the rest of the day.

"Mr. Geng, our factory is more difficult now. See if you can ......" Dong Yannian cautiously tentatively said: "You move out first, and then we will give money after the year?" ”

Geng Wenyang only felt that his idea was really ridiculous, and shook his head with a smile and said, "Can't!" The difficulties of your factory are your business, and you can't pass on the crisis to us, and we are not obliged to suffer on your behalf. ”

He emphasized: "I still say the same thing: pay the money with one hand and leave with the other. We will leave when we get the money, and we will resolutely not move if we can't get the money. ”

Dong Yannian saw that he didn't get oil and salt, so he proposed to reduce the amount to 200,000 yuan. Geng Wenyang categorically vetoed: "3160,000 yuan is already our minimum requirement, and it is impossible to reduce it further." Don't bother talking, go back and prepare the money. ”

Dong Yannian saw that Geng Wenyang was soft and hard, so he had to come back to discuss with Sheng Maosen and other factory leaders, and finally came up with a poisonous plan: force Du Lixun to ask Geng Wenyang and others for concessions, and agree to accept the factory's request of 200,000 yuan to settle the matter, otherwise he will be expelled from the factory.

Du Lixun found Geng Wenyang and begged bitterly: "Wenyang, my uncle has been working in the factory for almost thirty years. If this fires me, haven't I been doing these 30 years for nothing? I beg you, promise them. ”

Geng Wenyang smiled and said, "Uncle Du, don't worry, the factory will not dare to fire you." If they dare to fire you, we'll never move. ”

"Huh?" Du Li said in his heart: "The factory threatened you to quit the lease by firing me, but you threatened the factory with the dismissal of the rent. It's a bit of a circle, and I'll have to sort it out before I figure it out. ”

"But what about ......," Geng continued, "compromise is one of the ways to solve the problem. Since the factory has sent you forward, I can make a small concession and reduce the compensation to 300,000. ”

He advised: "You go back and tell them that 300,000 yuan is the final amount, and don't send anyone to talk about it." If they want to, they will take the money, and if they don't, let's stay up and see who can survive whom. ”

After Du Lixun thanked him for his kindness, he returned to the factory and made a detailed report to Dong Yannian 1510. Sheng Maosen and the others finally relented when they saw Geng Wenyang, and they were willing to believe the final amount, and sent Dong Yannian to negotiate again.

Geng Wenyang really avoided it, and said bluntly: "I have already made it very clear, 300,000 is the final amount. Either you take the money, or we just spend it, and there is no need for negotiations. ”

Dong Yannian ate the closed-door soup twice and then sent Du Lixun to it, but Du Lixun also ate the closed-door soup. Sheng Maosen and others really had no choice, and finally agreed to the condition of compensation of 300,000 yuan.

On the 18th day of the lunar month, Geng Wenyang, Du Chengdong and Xin Xudong instructed the employees of the entertainment plaza to load and transport equipment such as audio, projection machines and game consoles to the wholesale market for temporary storage.

Du Chengdong watched the Wendong Zhaoyang Entertainment Plaza that he had worked so hard to build turn into nothing overnight, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and his face seemed to be dripping.

Geng Wenyang comforted him and said: "Old Du, if the old doesn't go, the new won't come." It's closed here, let's find a suitable place to open a new one, it's not a big deal. ”

Du Chengdong said sadly: "Well done...... Suddenly it's gone, and I'm really feeling a little uncomfortable. ”

"What's this?" Geng Wenyang persuaded: "A manly man can bend and stretch, and it is nothing to be wronged. He won't let him do it here, so we can do something else first. ”

"Old Geng, you have to help me find a job." Du Chengdong begged: "My dad always scolded me for not being long-sighted this time, I don't want to be angry at home and eat white food." ”

"No problem!" Geng Wenyang put his arm around his shoulders and said, "You go to the wholesale market as the director of the marketing department and help Sister Min deal with daily affairs, do you think it's okay?" ”

"Well, there's a job to do." Du Chengdong said excitedly.

Geng Wenyang said to Xin Xudong again: "Xudong, you should go back to the science and technology industry company to help Lao Han." ”

Xin Xudong smiled: "Okay! I just like the atmosphere of working in the workshop, which is much happier than staying in the entertainment square. ”

Geng Wenyang looked at the busy employees of the entertainment plaza and said: "These employees are very good, we can't dump people, let them all go to the wholesale market." There was a shortage of people over there, and they went just in time for it. ”

"Well, good!" Du Chengdong responded with a strong spirit: "When I finish moving, I will announce the good news to everyone." ”

After everything in the entertainment square was dealt with, the time had come to Xiao Nian. On the day of the New Year, a heavy snowfall came unexpectedly, turning the urban area of Baicheng into a blanket of silver.

Geng Wenyang stood by the window and admired the goose feather snow falling down, but he was thinking about the gains and losses of the past year.

Although the entertainment plaza, which has been thriving, has to close its doors due to problems, the Zhannan Wholesale Market will officially open its doors in February. With the best-selling products of home game consoles, the business situation of science and technology companies last year was very good.

In addition, coupled with the input of Wen Xiao Mengyang Book Club and Galaxy Game Hall, the total income he obtained from various companies this year reached an unprecedented 1.7 million yuan.

Therefore, even if the entertainment plaza closes, his total profitability will not be affected too much. What's more, with the wholesale market opening for business, once the profitability under the scale effect is released, it will definitely make people's jaws drop.

He sighed, looked up at the lead-gray sky, and said to himself, "God, I've done my best! But I'll keep trying! ”
