Guan Yuntian knows very well that it is no longer possible to recover the share capital, and the only thing that can be done may be to try to get some assets from the other party before the collapse of Hongyuan Company, and try to make up for the losses caused by the investment in the shares as much as possible.

This idea was endorsed by Ye Jiayi and Ding Xiangqian.

"The question is, what assets of Hongyuan Company are useful to Changda Group?

"Of course, it can't be machinery and equipment, on the one hand, Hongyuan Company has not fallen, machinery and equipment cannot be moved, even if it goes bankrupt that day, the equipment and real estate are creditors' and have nothing to do with the shareholders; "Guan Yuntian said.

First of all, the project in which we invest is the production of health care products, which has nothing to do with other products of Hongyuan Company; in addition, regardless of whether health care products have any effect, this thing can at least be edible, and we can use it as a welfare to distribute to employees; Third, Hongyuan company's health care products need to be sold externally, and we want goods in the name of helping sales, and they are not easy to refuse. Ye Jiayi suggested.

Guan Yuntian felt that this plan was feasible, "Well, it's really hard to think of ways in other aspects, in the name of helping them sell their goods, maybe they can be pulled out from Hongyuan Company, but how to deal with these health care products in the end?

"If there is a sales channel, it is best to sell it, but if you can't sell it, you can only send it to employees as a benefit. Why don't you ask Mr. Shen, the sales director, she has a lot of contact with the outside to see if she has such a sales channel?"

"Shen is always engaged in the sales of industrial products, and in terms of medicine and health products, it may be difficult to enter the mall without acquaintances. Take a look, you can also ask her, but the question now is how to get things out of Hongyuan Company?" Guan Yuntian said.

Ye Jiayi suggested that Guan Yuntian directly contact Lao Gao or Lao Zhou of Hongyuan Company, saying that Changda Group is a shareholder of the project, and also wants to contribute to the development of the project, and is willing to open up the northern market for their health care products.

Lao Ding was a little skeptical, "What if the other party asks to pay for the goods on the spot?"

"We must emphasize that the purpose of this is to open up the northern market, we are not a secondary distributor, Changda Group is not only a project shareholder, this year's shareholding dividends have not been carried out, with this relationship, I estimate that the other party will not put forward a request for payment on the spot. ”

Guan Yuntian felt that this was a good excuse, and after more than ten days, he dialed Lao Gao's phone again, "Hello Mr. Gao! I am Guan Yuntian of Changda Group." ”

Lao Gao thought that Guan Yuntian was here to pay dividends, because he had assured Guan Yuntian that there would be dividends in ten days and half a month in the last call, "Mr. Guan, I'm really sorry, Lao Zhou on our side hasn't returned to the unit for personal reasons, so the matter of stock dividends has not had time to discuss." ”

"Oh, I didn't call for dividends, just a little money, it doesn't matter if you divide it or not, I want to ask how much inventory of health care products are produced?"

It wasn't to inquire about the dividends, Lao Gao's tense nerves immediately relaxed, but Guan Yuntian's last sentence made him vigilant again, "How much stock of health care products are there?" I really don't know too much about this ----,. ”

"Then please ask Mr. Gao to help me ask, and I'll call you later. ”

"Uh, I said Mr. Guan, may I ask why you are asking about this?"

"Didn't I say it last time, Changda Group is also a shareholder of your health care products project, and we have the obligation to contribute to the development and growth of the project. In the past year, you and Chou Dong have worked hard and painstakingly to make unremitting efforts for Hongyuan Company to be listed on the NASDAQ, perhaps because of limited energy, we feel that the domestic market development of the product is not satisfactory, the south does not know, at least in the northern market, we have not seen this product listed. Changda Group has a wide range of points in the tire, cord cloth and gasoline and diesel markets in the country, and we want to take advantage of this advantage to help sell health care products. ”

Guan Yuntian's words were not only flattering, but also purposeful and reasonable, which made Lao Gao very comfortable to listen to, even if he wanted to refuse the other party's request, he couldn't find a suitable reason.

"Well, let me ask the statistician in the Finance Section. ”

Hung up the phone temporarily, and after a few minutes, Guan Yuntian called again, "Mr. Gao, have you asked about the situation clearly?"

"I asked, now there are 5,500 pieces in the warehouse, nine boxes each, that is, 49,500 boxes. ”

"It's not much, I discussed this matter with the sales director of the group company, and she said that 180,000 boxes don't need to go to the mall, and they can be digested in our sales outlets and user units. I want to pull those health products over in a few days and let the outlets help you with the consignment/sales. ”

Lao Gao did not agree immediately, but said that this matter needed to be discussed.

"Who to discuss? Lao Zhou is busy with personal affairs and has no time to take care of the unit, you are the general manager, and you are fully responsible for the affairs of the unit, a matter that is conducive to market development and does not require spending a penny on advertising, do you still need to discuss? They all say that the special zone is highly efficient, and this kind of work rhythm does not match your position in the special zone!"

"Mr. Guan, of course it's a good thing that your outlets help consignment/sales, but you pulled the goods away, how can this procedure be fulfilled?"

"Hongyuan company's health care products project, Changda Group invested 10 million shares, we invested real money, Changda Group is a real shareholder, and the dividends of the previous year are still in your hands, in order to expand product sales, promote the development of the project, now ready to use their own advantages to help you sell products, you will not let us pay with one hand and pick up the goods with one hand, right?" Guan Yuntian preemptively put the purpose of consignment / sales into reasonable, and blocked Lao Gao's mouth.

"Mr. Guan, don't think about it, I don't mean that, since your purpose is also to help promote the development of the project to become bigger, our goals are the same, forget the formalities, and let the pick-up person make a receipt when the time comes." ”

Guan Yuntian calculated an account, the price of health care products is 150 yuan per box, if you can pull all the 5,500 pieces, close to 50,000 boxes, worth more than 7 million, plus the 2 million dividends obtained the previous year, it is equivalent to recovering more than 9.4 million yuan, although you can't get back all the shares, the loss of 6.7 million yuan should be a lesson.

Ten days later, Guan Yuntian sent Manager Yang of the supply department of Changda Group to Hongyuan Company to pull goods, and according to the agreement between Guan Yuntian and Lao Gao, Manager Yang hired five large trucks in the local area to successfully pull more than 5,000 pieces of health care products back to the headquarters of Changda Group.

Guan Yuntian discussed with Shen Yuehong, the sales director, how to deal with these health care products, "Do you think those outlets and customers are interested in this thing?"

Shen Yuehong looked at the efficacy description on the box, "Isn't this a health care product for middle-aged and elderly people? ”

"The efficacy of health care products is exaggerated, can you say that you can dispose of it?"

"This kind of thing, our sales outlets can only help consignment, as for the user, it depends on whether other people's enterprises are willing to provide benefits to employees. I'll ask and try to get them to help with digestion. ”

Shen Yuehong's attitude made Guan Yuntian feel a little cold; Indeed, how can health care products be mixed with tires and sold? The customer's enterprise does not necessarily have to distribute health care products to its employees for welfare! It seems that the possibility of export sales is not very large, and Guan Yuntian feels that it is mainly necessary to rely on the Changda Group to digest it internally.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, the benefits given by Changda Group to employees were two boxes of health care products per person, worth 300 yuan. To be honest, for the vast majority of workers in rural areas, they are not interested in this thing, health care products as welfare, not as affordable as the same value of rice flour oil, rice flour oil is a necessity to be consumed for three meals a day, if you don't look at the instructions on the box, many employees don't even know what health care products are for.

Counting the villagers recruited from the local area for the agriculture-related project in the northern mountainous area, Changda Group currently has nearly 25,000 employees, and if there are two boxes per person, it is just enough to consume these health products. Considering the practical limitations of health supplements, the board of directors decided to issue an additional 100 yuan shopping vouchers to each person.

As expected, at the end of that year, Hongyuan Company, far away in the south, announced its collapse, and in the bankruptcy liquidation, involving the whereabouts of this batch of products, the local judicial department sent an investigation letter to Changda Group, and Guan Yuntian immediately handed over the matter to the legal counsel of the group company, Mr. Zhao.

"Mr. Guan, the crux of this matter lies in the fact that the Changda Group contributed 10 million yuan at that time, in the form of shares, or in the form of raising funds and loans? If the Changda Group is a shareholder of this project, there is no chance of winning this matter; if it is in the form of loans, the lawsuit will have to be fought. Lawyer Zhao analyzed.

"At that time, both sides didn't care whether it was a shareholding or a fund-raising loan, the situation is like this, to say that we have a shareholding, we never know how many shares Changda Group occupies in it, we have not even seen their articles of association, nor have we ever participated in any of their decision-making, and we don't even know any news about the project, how can there be such a shareholder in the world? However, we had a dividend of 2 million the year before last, and we called that money a share dividend, or the interest on a fund-raising loan? It depends on how to understand the way in which Changda Group contributed 10 million. ”

Guan Yuntian felt that it was not easy to be such a shareholder!

"Well, it's important how you define that 10 million. ”

"Lawyer Zhao, let me give you another fact, the 2 million yuan received the year before last, strictly speaking, it should not be called a share dividend, because their project is still in the stage of industrialization experiment, and there has been no large-scale industrial production so far, so it is impossible to generate profits. ”

"Mr. Guan, let's sort out the facts and straighten out our thinking, and then we can talk to each other. First, at that time, it was not clear whether the capital contribution was a shareholding or a fund-raising loan; second, you were not a shareholder member, did not know the articles of association of the enterprise, and had never participated in decision-making and management; third, the other party had no profits, and the 2 million yuan received the year before was the interest on the loan. That's pretty much it, right? What are you trying to achieve?"

"That's the basic thing. There is only one goal to achieve, that is, to recover the losses as much as possible and reject any unreasonable demands of the other party. ”
