Reaching for the stars with one hand

Chapter 99 Chaos 2
Li Guowei's phone calls were overwhelmed by several branch managers.

"Mr. Li, Kangmu's agents are selling Eka products. Our 0.5 total station is our most important source of profit because we have no competitors. However, Kangtuo, a subsidiary of Kangmu, shipped 30.00% less than our price. Not only They snatched away the contract we got, and they also wholesaled it to the outside world, causing various agents to snap up. Almost all of our secondary channels stopped getting goods from Yaxu. This wave of losses was heavy. What's worse, this The wave directly destroyed all our price systems, even if we block the illegal supply of goods in the future, the price will soon recover...."

"Mr. Li, the employees are now very emotional. Someone sent a letter of proposal asking everyone to go to Beijing together and ask Eka China for an explanation."

"Mr. Li, a boy of ours who had been staring at the list for half a year was robbed by Kang Mu. After calculating his personal loss of tens of thousands of commissions, he bought a knife and said he wanted to find someone to collect debts. We were terrified, and we kept comforting him. Transferred all the old customers of several companies to him to temporarily stabilize the mood."

"Mr. Li, this Eka is so fucking inhuman, is he unreasonable? Today, we tried to communicate with them, and the call was transferred to Jia Hua, who said that all the dealer's affairs were under his control. The surname is Jia Gen Don't talk about human words, say that this is the manufacturer's decision, the agent has no right to question it, and can only obey. We questioned the other party's violation of the contract, and the bastard said that Eka has the final say on the contract, and any decision made by Eka is legally binding Yes. We are going crazy, how can there be such a low-level and arrogant thing. We want to talk to Eric directly, but the call is transferred to a woman named Penny. She said that she will see the boss in the future. Go through her first..."

Li Guowei answered the phone calls one by one, frowning tightly.

Everyone knew that it would be a matter of time before Eka moved Yaxu. Since Lawrence left Beijing and was only in charge of Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, everyone was prepared in their hearts.

But now this situation is completely beyond everyone's imagination. There is no advance notice, no handover and transition, and even the most basic communication.Overnight, the new agent Xinya Company strongly intervened.

But what they are facing is not Xinya at all, but a group of Kangmu agents. Each of these companies has been deeply involved in the industry for many years and has a deep user base. Overwhelmed by Eka.Now these companies suddenly have Eka equipment and enter the market at a lower price, which is almost a fatal blow to Yaxu.

Perhaps the people from Kangmu intentionally attacked Yaxu to vent their grievances that had been suppressed for many years, or they just adopted low prices because they lacked sales experience in high-end products.Compared with the profit margin of Kangmu equipment, this price is still very good.But in the eyes of Yaxu people, this is like a car thief stealing a Rolls-Royce and selling it directly at the price of a Jetta.The anger that belongs to the owner of a Rolls-Royce occupies everyone's body and mind.

Li Guowei was extremely angry, not only unable to appease his subordinates, he even didn't know what to say.

Finally, he asked an irrelevant question, "Is Kangmu all optical equipment? Is there GNSS?"

"Very little. People in Kangmu will sell GNSS, and after all, Zhang Yong is in control of the overall situation. There seems to be no big problem with this part."

"Well, at least there is some good news. Appease everyone's emotions, don't make trouble, let alone do illegal things, we will discuss countermeasures immediately."

He didn't dare to let Oscar answer these calls directly, fearing that the prince would explode directly, he led people to pick Eka's office.He called Lawrence first, and then brought Oscar over for a meeting.

The seasoned Lawrence was also unexpected in this situation, "Is Eric so low? He has to take responsibility for doing things like this. How could he be so bold and reckless? Is there any deeper reason?"

Oscar yelled, "There are so many reasons there, they are just publicly killing us. Lawrence, don't think about complicating things, fight back."

"Give me half a day, please hold on tight and don't move around. I'll think about it."

……

……

Zhang Yong hung up Ma Xiaoqing's phone call, and then punched the steering wheel hard.The smashed car horn let out a miserable long sound, and the driver of the vehicle driving in front of him was startled, thinking that something had happened.

After the driver calmed down for a while and found that everything was normal, anger immediately rushed to his heart.He slowed down parallel to Zhang Yong's car, then rolled down the window and cursed, "Are you so sick?"

Zhang Yong, who was wronged, made an apologetic gesture, then slowed down and let the car go first.So the driver stretched out his hand from the car window, gave Zhang Yong a middle finger, and then sped up and left.

Zhang Yong was a little scared, and felt that his mood was not suitable for driving. He turned into the parking lot of an office building, parked the car, and then directly entered the subway station from inside the building.

He had an indescribable sense of frustration in his heart, which he had never experienced in Tiangong and Skydon, and he didn't even feel this way when Kintaro reprimanded him in various ways in the GPS center.

In these places, everything is firstly divided into right and wrong. The reason why there are contradictions is that everyone has not reached a consensus on the standard of right and wrong, and each has his own understanding.

Eka is the only place he's ever been where there's no distinction between right and wrong, only positions and hatred.

Eric is his boss, the person who personally went to the SKydon venue to interview him. He has always been grateful and has always tried to maintain a good relationship with the boss.And his reward is also very simple, a scholar dies for his confidant, if you value me so much, boss, I will reward you with the best performance.

But everything was different from what he thought. He didn't even know what was wrong with his boss. It seemed that overnight, he became the person his boss disliked the most.No one talked about his performance and what he did, but he actually started to make a fuss about him from his attendance.

For the first time, he also had a little worry about his future in Eka.In his past understanding, if you want to destroy him, you must first destroy his performance. He is the project manager of GNSS and reference stations. As long as his performance is excellent and there are no other violations, no one can deal with him.This has always been his office philosophy. No matter how complicated the relationship is, someone needs to do things. I am the one doing things, so there is nothing to worry about.

But what happened now seemed to be different from what he understood.He suddenly thought of Fang Shu and her Mag representative office, maybe it was really a suitable place for him.

However, a young man's pride and stubbornness once again occupied his heart, why should I leave?I didn't do anything wrong, why should I voluntarily give up. No way!

……

……

The phone rang, Hong Kong long distance, he knew who was calling.

"Hi, Lawrence."

"Zhang Yong, hello. Can you tell me what happened?"

Zhang Yong smiled wryly again, "What you saw is what happened, you don't have to ask me at all."

"Don't you think all this is crazy? I want to know, does Eric have other cards, or a special reason? I've been in the workplace for decades, and it's okay to retire now. But I haven't seen such nonsense Yes, Eka equipment is wholesaled to other manufacturers and agents at low prices, and then makes a mess in the market. You know, I don’t like Eric, but it’s not really hating. The real root lies in Hans. But Eric also has Professional managers with successful career records, no one would dare to believe that they do such unqualified things.”

"Lawrence, I don't want to talk about my boss's character and level, you can evaluate it yourself. Let me tell you some of my feelings."

"Okay, you say."

"Before I came to Eka, many people told me that Eka's relationship was complicated and difficult to handle. But I still came. I thought the most difficult relationship was the relationship between you and Eric, that is, the relationship between Eka China and Asahi. As a result, you can see that we get along pretty well, as long as everyone is willing to communicate, we will find that we don’t hate each other that much. If it weren’t for the inexplicable position, maybe we could have been friends.”

"Well, the Yaxu people regard you as a friend. You may be the only friend in Eka China, but this is not a personal relationship, but a friendship that can get along and work together."

"Thank you. The relationship with Yaxu is a problem I can think of, and I can figure it out. Even if we don't get along well and the problem is not resolved, I know where the problem is. But now, I feel very close to you, I can't understand the situation in front of me, I can't understand the people in this office. I don't know what they are going to do, I don't know why they do it, and I can't understand their methods...”

"None of them are very smart, and they are pitifully useless. As for Jia Hua, to be honest, anyone under my command is a hundred times better than him. Don't talk about professional knowledge, it is eloquence, knowledge and strategy, even if it is a hand. Come on, everyone is far better than him..."

"But he happens to be very powerful. He is afraid of me. Everyone knows it, but it's just on the surface. I can't do anything about him. There are also a few women in the office who don't rely on scheming to do what they want. Everyone has their own thoughts about them. It’s clear at a glance, but they can still do things.  …”

"I don't understand, and I don't want to participate. But the trouble came to me. I don't even know where I offended them. I do my job, they make the boss happy, and everyone just doesn't have to deal with it, but I can't get around it." them.……"

"All this makes me very frustrated, but I don't know what to do? I don't even have a decent opponent, and I don't even have a place to fight.  …"

"That's the Eka I see right now, the Eka I understand, and the Eka I don't understand."

Lawrence had never heard Zhang Yong say so many words, and it was the first time he knew that he was so depressed.He didn't have time to comfort Zhang Yong, because now his troubles are bigger.From Zhang Yong's words, he probably heard the answer he wanted.

"Zhang Yong, you're saying that Eric may have no cards and no special reason. It's just now. Everything is chaotic, and everything happened in such an incredible way. Is this how you understand it?"

"I'm only talking about my feelings. Others can only be analyzed by yourself. But I think Eric may not have any means, but the Eka executives may have it. You know, I experienced a similar thing in SKydon, although It’s far less bloody than Eka’s, but some plots are really similar.”

"Okay, I see. Thank you, Zhang Yong. I'm old and I can't help you. I hope everything goes well for you. We all see what you do, and I wish you success."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yong felt a little better, but a bad feeling came to his mind, "Am I really so depressed? Need to talk to someone to relieve it?" He understood his problem a little bit, Madam Since he was pregnant, he has become the key protection object. As long as his various bad emotions and desires to confide in his heart are not benign, he will try his best to digest them at work and never go to see his family with any emotions.He felt that he had always done a good job, but now he found that the emotions accumulated deep in his heart were actually bad.

He missed the night tour of Beijing city with Madam.

……

……

Zhang Yong was late, but luckily it wasn't too long.

He entered the coffee shop, and soon saw a loyal face, but it was a little more vicissitudes than before.

As soon as Mr. Zhao saw Zhang Yong, he laughed out loud, and he couldn't help himself.Like Zhang Yong, he also discovered his own problem. He seemed to have not laughed for a long time, and felt that there was something wrong with his spirit.

Two men who were very depressed in their hearts sat together.They looked at each other, suddenly felt a little more relaxed, and at the same time thought of someone, damn it, this angry guy actually went back to school at this time.

"Okay?"

"You know, you don't dare to meet people. You raise money every day."

"How is it now?"

"Everything is probably in the making. It may be a heavy fine, but after the fine, there will be no other consequences. But this consequence is enough, we can't bear it at all. SKydon has a high probability of kicking me out, and my domestic The dream, I guess it really is just a dream." Zhao Ye said very calmly, but there seemed to be something flickering in his eyes.

"How heavy?"

"500 million." Mr. Zhao actually smiled, he said with a smile, "We all know that SKydon equipment has high profits, but the operating expenses are also high, and there are various taxes and fees. Now the entire company has hundreds of people, and the monthly The expenses are all a huge sum of money. This 500 million is a real net profit, and our family belongings for several years have all been folded into it...."

"Our localization stall is currently in a state of high investment and zero output. Since the company's accident, most of the research and development here have gone away, and many things have stopped. The boards we pasted on other people's production lines, the molds we made, and the If I don’t pay for it, it’s all deducted. Once these things have passed the timeliness, they are meaningless and can only be redone. This is broken, and I can’t even leave much valuable things. The future can only start again... ..."

"The dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and you can pick the stars with your hands." Mr. Zhao recited a line of Li Bai's poem softly, "We all want to be the ones who want to pick the stars, but we all forget that the first thing I face is the dangerous building. "

Zhang Yong interrupted him, "Master Zhao, this is not like you. You have never been so decadent."

"Because I've never been to this level."

"How much money can you raise now?"

"It's still close to a fine, but it's hard to make up. Everyone knows I'm in trouble, and no one wants to give me money."

"How long can it be delayed?"

"The longest delay can't be three months, but I don't want to delay it the most. If we don't get rid of this predicament, we can't do anything."

"If you pay half of the fine first, and then delay it for six months, do you think there is a chance?"

Mr. Zhao thought about it seriously, "I think it's okay. I've seen the business you mentioned, and I'm sure it's a good business, but six months, do you think it's enough? Usually a new product, our marketing and promotion The preliminary work will take about six months. I am looking forward to your business, but I am a little afraid. If my money is spent in six months and the cost cannot be recovered, then it will really be a disaster for me. If you can’t pay the fine, it’s estimated that everything will be frozen.”

"Master Zhao, you have been in the mountains for too long, and you can no longer see the mountains clearly. Is there a difference between dying in three months and dying in six months? There is a difference between dying with all your money and dying without paying the money." How big is it? Why not take a gamble? From my understanding, a civilian-grade product with a consumer-grade price does not need such a long cycle as you said. I think you can definitely turn around in half a year. I talked with Hai Gang, the entire structure and personnel of your company are there, but the head office is closed, as long as the whole country is mobilized, with the ability of Tianshi people, it will be successful."

"Six months is still too short. I'm afraid it's too late for Sinicization. I'm worried that after all the problems are solved, the official sales time may be less than three months. This is a bit risky."

Zhang Yong handed over a USB flash drive, "I've finished the Sinicization program, and I've discussed the built-in map with one of my classmates. It costs 2 dollars a pair, and you can figure out the other packaging and Chinese logos yourself. We have negotiated, order now, and the shipment will be delivered immediately, I guess the first batch of handheld GPS will reach Beijing in half a month. …”

"Now, Mr. Zhao, give me an answer. Do you want to take a gamble? If you say no, I will quickly find a company and take over everything."

Master Zhao snatched the USB flash drive from Zhang Yong's hand, and the resolute expression returned to Master Zhao's face, "Thank you, Zhang Yong, I bet this one, and I must win."
