Chapter 447: Wang Weidong and Song Yu's Double Reed

Ordinary people are very wise, for example, the old people in many places in the southwest do not ask you how much money you make in a month, but ask you how much money you have suffered in a month, and how hard you have suffered.

This bitter word has a much deeper meaning than the word earning money.

It's the same in the stock market, few people say buy or sell stocks, everyone says that stocks are speculated - stocks are used for speculation, and many times the price of stocks is speculated, rather than relying on the performance of listed companies.

In terms of acquiring listed companies, Wang Weidong and Song Yu are actually a false shot, and the two of them are nominally targeting Shancha shares, and secretly aiming at the Guizhou Expedition.

To tell the truth, the performance of this company is very average, and even the workers working in this company are baffled by the fact that the company's stock price has risen so high.

Because the company's economic performance is really average, and the wages of workers are also mediocre, which is in stark contrast to the rising stock price of their company.

During this time, Song Yu exerted his stubborn spirit of pursuing girls, constantly communicated with the competent authorities of Shancha shares, and constantly raised the purchase price.

Due to Song Yu's identity background, especially the attractive price given by Song Yu, the state-owned assets that control Shancha shares began to be moved.

Because they also know the inside story of Tricha AG, it is tempting to be able to offer such a high price now.

Of course, this news quickly reached the ears of Vice Minister Lu, who was also in the capital, and they couldn't help but feel very anxious in their hearts.

As a leading cadre over the years, Vice Minister Lu has deeply realized that only by doing things can there be achievements.

In the nineties, there were a large number of state-owned zombie enterprises in the country. The so-called zombie enterprises are still real on the surface, but they have almost stopped production, because the products produced are not marketable at all, but these factories cannot be directly closed or even bankrupt, because once they get to that point, they will have to be liquidated. How will the workers' problems be solved at that time? How to solve the loan arrears to the bank?

So the higher authorities and the government can only keep these companies in existence.

After the company was packaged and listed, it originally hoped to rejuvenate the company by raising 50 million yuan to purchase new equipment and improve production technology.

But now it doesn't seem to be working well, but the hole is getting bigger and bigger, and it has become a hot potato.

Now it seems that the acquisition of Qianyuanzheng is the best solution for Xiangyang Electronics.

It can not only find a way out for the workers, but also let the ministry get rid of a big burden, and the loan owed to the bank can be passed on to Xiangyang Electronics.

However, now that the ministry has this desire, Xiangyang Electronics has shown a lack of interest in acquiring the company Qianyuanzheng.

Vice Minister Lu thought about it for a long time, and felt that he still had to play the emotional card, and made a fuss through the relationship between Wang Weidong and the children of Xiangyang Chemical Factory.

He knew that he had nothing to do with Wang Weidong, and this matter could only be done through Shi Ke, after all, Wang Weidong had a closer relationship with Shi Kewei, and now Shi Ke's daughter Shi Yueshuang was a high-level cadre of Xiangyang Electronics.

At the urging of Vice Minister Lu, Shi Wei kept calling Wang Weidong and urging him to return to the capital for an interview.

Shi Kewei first talked about the country's righteousness on the phone, then talked about feelings, and finally put on the shelf of elders.

After making four such calls, Wang Weidong felt that the heat was almost over, so he pretended to be very reluctant to return to the capital.

"Mr. Wang, now that the business is doing big, you don't care about me, the deputy minister. Of course, I'm already retired, and I don't care about it. Shi Ke said.

"It's not a question, don't you know what kind of person I am? It's really because the brewery site is so busy, and we want to be ready for production in two or three months, so we have to hurry up now. Of course, the main reason is that the company you recommend really doesn't meet our requirements, it's like looking for a daughter-in-law, obviously there is a beautiful one, and now you have to stuff an ugly one to me. Wang Weidong said.

"I've heard that Song Yu's kid has been running to the mechanical department every day for a while, and the price offered has increased to 600 million. I also admit that the economic benefits of Qianyuanzheng company are indeed not very good, but if you invest in the transformation after acquiring this company, and then turn the production of the factory to the aspects that match your Xiangyang Electronics, I believe that the company will be revitalized immediately! And our asking price will never be as high as that of the mechanical department. Shi Ke said.

"You get what you pay for, that's the truth!" Wang Weidong retorted.

"Weidong, Qianyuanzheng's company can't pay wages now, and the New Year will be more than a month away, what can those workers do? Since you have solved the employment problem of 3,000 workers in Xiangyang Chemical Plant, you will definitely be able to solve the problem of this company! Leng Qing persuaded on the side.

"Doing business is not about charity, doing business will be profitable, and you must not do loss-making business!" Wang Weidong explained.

"I also understand this truth, Vice Minister Lu has talked to me, and the ministry is still very sincere about this matter now, you can have a good talk with him and negotiate a suitable price. You can spend 600 million to buy Shansha shares, and I estimate that you can spend 200 million or 300 million to buy the company Qianyuanzheng. Wouldn't it be good to spend the rest of the money on the introduction of technology and the expansion of producers in the future? Shi Ke said.

Wang Weidong bowed his head and was silent as if he was struggling with ideas, and finally he raised his head and said: "Xiangyang Electronics is a joint-stock company, and in addition to me, there are three other people on the board of directors who are major shareholders. I'm going to go back and talk to them, and I can't just do it. ”

"You're right to do this, tomorrow you will take that kid from Song Yu to have a good talk with Vice Minister Lu. Vice Minister Lu is very sincere, and you must also show your sincerity! Shi Ke said.

The next day, Song Yu drove and Wang Weidong on the way to the ministry.

Wang Weidong said to Song Yu: "Xiaoyu, we are all ready, the time to act has come!" ”

"Understand, isn't it just singing a double reed? You sing red face, I sing white face. Song Yu nodded and said.

At the gate of the ministry compound, two people registered and were reported to the top by the doorman.

After a while, Vice Minister Lu's secretary came out to greet the two people and asked the doorman to let them go.

Song Yu put the car into the compound of the ministry.

From the moment he saw the secretary, Song Yu's face immediately became very depressed, he didn't say a word, and gave Wang Weidong a roll of his eyes from time to time.

Walk into the building and come to Vice Minister Lu's office.

Vice Minister Lu greeted the two with a smile on his face and warmly shook hands with Wang Weidong and Song Yu.

When shaking hands, Song Yu looked very reluctant.

"Please take a seat, the two bosses are very busy people, and it is really not easy to invite you here this time." Vice Minister Lu said.

"Busy is also busy, some time ago, someone asked me to go to the mechanical department to communicate with the leaders there to buy Shansha shares, my legs are about to break, my mouth is worn out, the matter is almost over, but yesterday that person told me to come to your ministry today to talk. Anyway, I'm just a pawn, and I'll do whatever others tell me to do! Song Yu said with resentment.

Vice Minister Lu was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Wang Weidong and said to Song Yu with a smile: "Weidong is also right to do this, after all, he is a child from our military industry, and he still has a lot of feelings for us!" Besides, it's all about shopping around, and there's no harm in communicating more, right? ”

Wang Weidong also had a wry smile on his face next to him, looking very helpless.

"Vice Minister Lu, we don't know the specific situation of the Qianyuan expedition you introduced to me. Can you give us a little time to look into it later? Wang Weidong said.

"Of course, spending so much money to acquire a company can not make you understand. The Guizhou Expedition was originally a medium-sized military enterprise built with the assistance of all parts of the country during the construction of the third line, and it was engaged in the processing of artillery barrels. From the 80s, the enterprise began to switch to civilian production. However, the products produced do not meet the needs of the market, so the current business situation is not very good. Vice Minister Lu said.

"Vice Minister Lu, it's too general just to hear you introduce it now. Personally, I and a few other directors will go to the factory and actually investigate. Wang Weidong said.

Vice Minister Lu said with a smile: "Of course, I will definitely let you go to see it, you are welcome to see it!" ”

"Also, when we were listed on Hong Kong Island this time, the accounting firm on Hong Kong Island stayed with us on Sunningdale for a long time and carefully reviewed our company's projects. I would like to immediately ask a Hong Kong law firm to enter this company in Qianyuanjiang, review the financial situation of this company, and make sure that I know it well, what do you think? Wang Weidong asked.

Hearing Wang Weidong's request, Vice Minister Lu's face showed an expression of embarrassment. Wang Weidong's request is justified and bright, but he can't nod his head and agree now.

There are so many factories under the ministry, and it is impossible for him to know every one of them.

According to the materials reported by the factory, the company now owes nearly 100 million yuan in loans and raw materials to the bank.

Vice Minister Lu also came up from the grassroots level, and he has a very good understanding of the work at the grassroots level, that is, to report good news but not bad news; if the reported figure is nearly 100 million, then this big hole is likely to be more than 100 million, or even more.

"Now that we're just talking about the acquisition, you're going to send an accountant to check the accounts right away, isn't that right?" Vice Minister Lu said.

"But if we don't actually understand the current financial situation of the factory, and we don't know the family background of the entire factory, we can't talk about it." Wang Weidong said.

"I have investigated and learned about the company of Tripartis shares, although the operation is relatively average, but the debt ratio is very low!" Song Yu said on the side.

Vice Minister Lu pondered for a while and said, "Do you think this will work, I'll go and understand it first, and then I'll call you back?" ”

After Wang Weidong and Song Yu left, Vice Minister Lu immediately asked the secretary to contact Fan Jingyi, the chairman of the Guizhou Expedition who was still in the capital, and asked him to come to the ministry immediately.

Fan Jingyi, who came to the capital these days to ask for money, was on pins and needles, and he learned about the current situation of the factory through the phone while waiting for the ministry to inform him of the salary payment.

After receiving a call from the secretary, Fan Jingyi immediately rushed to the ministry.

As soon as he walked into Vice Minister Lu's office, Vice Minister Lu asked directly: "Old Fan, tell me honestly, how much is the total amount of bank loans, raw material costs and workers' wages in arrears in your factory?" ”

Hearing Vice Minister Lu's question, Fan Jingyi was stunned for a long time before he replied in a low voice: "Leader, you also know that I have only been sent to the factory by the ministry for a few months, and I don't know many situations. ”

Vice Minister Lu nodded and then asked, "Do you estimate that it will exceed 100 million?" ”

Fan Jingyi thought for a while and replied, "I think there should be 120 million or 30 million." ”

Since Fan Jingyi said that there are 120 million or 300 million, the actual number can only be more, not less.

In the end, Fan Jingyi said firmly: "It will definitely not exceed 200 million!" ”

Hearing Fan Jingyi's words, Vice Minister Lu chuckled in his heart.

In this way, the Qianyuan expedition is now insolvent, and the actual situation will be even worse.

When doing asset statistics, the equipment in the factory in the 50s and 60s was worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars on the books, but in fact it was a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron, which was not worth anything at all.

"You immediately come back and gather all the financial staff to work overtime and make statistics, and thoroughly touch the family background of the factory, so that you know it by heart. I'll just give you a week, and then you call me to report back. Vice Minister Lu ordered.

"What about the salary? Now there are more than 3,000 workers in the factory and more than 1,000 retired workers, all waiting for their wages to be paid. Fan Jingyi asked.

"You put these things aside for a while, explain them to the workers when you go back, and do the things I told you first." Vice Minister Lu said.

Fan Jingyi left very reluctantly, there were two reasons for his reluctance, one was that he did not bring back the salary, and the more important reason was that Vice Minister Lu asked him to go back to check the family, which was a very offensive thing.

Bank loans and arrears of wages are not to be said, but it is very nerve-wracking to thoroughly check all the payments for the purchase of raw materials and materials in the past.

Equipment for the production of beer from Germany has been disembarked at the port of Tianjin.

After Wang Weidong and Song Yu got the news, they immediately organized a large vehicle to transport it and transport it to the factory for safekeeping.

"Xiaoyu, it must be put into production before April next year!" Wang Weidong said.

"Weidong, you can rest assured, it will definitely be put into production before the peak beer sales season!" Song Yu said firmly.

Wang Weidong picked up a stone from the ground and showed it to Song Yu.

"It's an egg, it's our brewery now, eggs hatch into chicks, you can lay a lot of eggs, and then these eggs hatch a lot of chickens, you can lay more eggs, and that's the game we're playing now!" Wang Weidong said.
