The Situation of Merchant Killing

Chapter 31 Public opinion fermentation
The news that Baotian Industry owed the payment to Weilai Company broke out again, plus the rumor that Baotian Industry defaulted on Shengxing Machinery Processing Co., Ltd. (the company where Li Chao works) that broke out yesterday, there have been two payments.

This news made Baotian a little bit out of control, and a large number of stockholders left messages on the Internet for the Secretary of the Board to inquire about Baotian's business situation.Someone in the stock bar fanned the flames.

Baotian Industrial urgently issued an announcement to refute the rumors, indicating that everything in the company is normal and the capital operation is in good condition.The report on the so-called payment owed to the two companies is not true.Baotian Industrial and Shengxing Machinery Processing Co., Ltd. did not default on payment for goods.There are defects in the product parts of Shengxing Machinery, and the whole batch needs to be inspected again before payment.The Weilai company's payment for the goods was due to the dispute between the two parties over the contract.After reaching an agreement, the payment issue will be resolved.

There is no big problem between Weilai and Baotian.It is because the quality of a small number of products is in dispute, and the two sides dragged it on for a while, and it can be resolved immediately.But the timing of this matter is not very good.Because of Shengxing Machinery's default in arrears, Baotian Industrial was on the cusp.

Shengxing Machinery issued an announcement on the Internet: Baotian Industrial's statement distorted the facts.There is nothing wrong with the company's products.Baotian Industry has conducted a comprehensive inspection and acceptance, and promised to pay the balance.Now it has been in arrears with the payment, which has affected the company's operation.Baotian Industrial's announcement mentioned that the company's products had quality problems, which affected the company's image and sales.The company has decided to take up legal weapons to defend the legitimate rights and interests of the company.

Baotian is popular again.

Senior officials of Baotian Industrial held a meeting.Zhang Yu patted the table at the meeting.

"What's going on?" Zhang Yu questioned, "Shengxing, a small and broken company, actually challenged us? Does it not want to do it?"

"That's right." Ma Zhiyuan, the vice president, chimed in: "That guy named Li Chao would call me and ask for money if he had anything to do. What's wrong with a few days in arrears? It's not like Baotian doesn't pay him back."

Baotian has been in arrears with Shengxing for nearly two months, but according to Ma Zhiyuan, it is only a few days.

"I looked at the back and there must be someone supporting me." After Ma Zhiyuan finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Yu.

After the meeting, Zhang Yu left Ma Zhiyuan behind.

"Old Ma. Have you received any news?" Zhang Yu asked.

"Mr. Zhang." Ma Zhiyuan looked at the door, turned to Zhang Yu and said, "That's what happened. Wasn't it because Li Chao was a classmate of Long Mingyi that we withheld his payment."

"Correct."

"I guess, it must be Long Mingyi's trick."

"It's the same as I thought." Zhang Yu nodded, "I said it. I thought that Li Chao and Long Mingyi had a normal relationship. Why did Long Mingyi ignore him? So he was waiting for me here. After a few days God, just pay back the payment. It's not a big problem."

"Let the surname Long do this?" Ma Zhiyuan asked unconvinced.

"We can't just let it go like this." Zhang Yu said, "But we can't do it at this juncture. First pay back the payment, and then let the people in Shengxing know the price of offending us."

"Block it first?" Ma Zhiyuan asked.

"Go and call our friends." Zhang Yu said, "Don't do business with Shengxing, everyone."

Shengxing is mainly engaged in machining business.To put it bluntly, regular customers come to it or the salesman goes out to run orders. Where there is a batch of parts that need to be made, the salesman comes and gets the order. Shengxing makes parts that do not require precision manufacturing according to the requirements.

Baotian overestimated himself.He can make an impact, but he can't let Shengxing go bankrupt.

In a factory like Shengxing, if you don’t take on big jobs, you can take on small jobs. At most, you will lose profits, but you can still eat.

Ma Zhiyuan returned to the office and reluctantly called Li Chao's boss, Li Feng. "You guys are doing well. Play for real."

"Mr. Ma, we are forced to do nothing." Li Feng's tone was not a bit tough. "You settled the final payment, and we both settle."

"Double clear? Definitely clean up!" Ma Zhiyuan said: "The money will be transferred to your account the day after tomorrow. But we will not cooperate in the future, and our friends and customers will not cooperate with you either."

"What do you mean?" Li Feng asked.At this time, Li Chao answered the phone and said to Ma Zhiyuan: "Hehe. Ma Zhiyuan, Mr. Ma, please don't say that. We were also forced to do nothing this time. The profit of the manufacturing industry is low, and hundreds of people in the factory are waiting to eat. Then A little money is insignificant to you Baotian Industrial, but it is what our small Shengxing factory needs to survive."

"Not much to say." Ma Zhiyuan said, "Block it." He hung up the phone after leaving this sentence.

Li Feng turned his head in pain, "What should I do, Li Chao? The money will come back, and we will have less life in the future."

"It's okay." Li Chao said, "I recorded what he said just now."

"Why are you recording?" Li Feng felt even more headache, "Isn't this completely offending people? Li Chao! Don't make up your own mind, can you? Who is the boss between us?"

"You are the boss." Li Chao said politely, "But do you think he can let us go?"

"This……"

"Don't worry." Li Chao said, "This recording is very useful."

The recording of Ma Zhiyuan's phone call to Li Feng was exposed.The pressure of public opinion once again pressed on Baotian Industrial.

There are a lot of comments from netizens under the news.

Wind of Xinghai: What kind of quality is this person?A domineering gesture.What is the quality of being a vice president?Now the one who owes money has become a master?

The old tree is rooted: Why do you have to ask grandpa to sue grandma if you want to get back your own money?Still blocked?A big company can open its mouth to block a small company that wants justice at will?Justice is at ease.

Yaya's Yaya: I've never seen someone so brazen!Worse than my ex-boss!You are right, and he also says you are wrong.Those who are flattering are promoted, those who do things, and those who express different opinions are suppressed.Is there any reason?Shengxing, a small company, wants to protect its own legitimate interests, so can it be attacked like this?How will you do business in the future?
Struggling mother: I am a single mother with a small business, and I have been owed money sometimes.If the previous family does not give me money, I will not be able to give the next family.I was scolded at the door by debt collectors for two hours, and I didn't dare to say anything.The child was so young that he cried in fright.Really, I wanted to die while holding the child.If it weren't for watching the children, I would have jumped off a building, and I definitely wouldn't be able to survive.I support Shengxing rights protection!

There are 10,000+ likes under this kind of "real feeling" message from a struggling mother.

The article "When Will the Violent Bullying of Big Companies Stop" pointed out that according to interviews with reporters, it often happens that Baotian Industrial uses the big to bully the small.Among his peers, he often squeezed out, even deliberately lowered prices, and competed viciously.

The wall fell and everyone pushed.The opportunity for colleagues to throw stones at Baotian also came.

There are a lot of news, both true and false, in short, they are all articles that are not conducive to Baotian Industrial.

Baotian's public relations department is going crazy.They need to stabilize Baotian's customers, they need to stabilize Baotian's creditors, and they need to visit the bank to prevent the loan from being broken.

And Ma Zhiyuan was in the middle of the stormy sea.The board of directors immediately suspended him, and Zhang Yu scolded him bloody.

"Block Shengxing, what are you shouting for?" Zhang Yu pointed at Ma Zhiyuan's nose and scolded, "Are you short-hearted?"

"I didn't expect them to be so sinister." Ma Zhiyuan felt quite wronged, "Isn't this just to vent my anger? Who would have thought that they would record a phone call I made."

"Public opinion! Public opinion! People on the Internet like to uphold justice now! They condemn you impassionedly!" Zhang Yu said, "What should we do now? Do you think it's over after you come out and apologize?"

Zhang Yu said angrily: "I have asked people to find that reporter several times, and I also searched the website, but these hot searches can't be removed. Don't you understand? Long Mingyi launched an attack!"

"Then what should I do?" Ma Zhiyuan said, "I have to take the blame and resign for this matter?"

"This matter?" Zhang Yu was trembling with anger, "It's easy for you to take the blame and resign! The stock price has gone up like this these days, and the shareholders now want you to compensate for the loss. Organize rights protection. Once a lawsuit occurs, Baotian still doesn’t know what will happen.”

"Isn't it legal?" Ma Zhiyuan said, "What's the legal basis for this?"

"Is this important?" Zhang Yu said, "As long as this happens, you won't be able to go to that company in the future. Your career..."

Ma Zhiyuan sat down on the chair resentfully.
