Reborn the mountain village and became the richest man from selling mountain goods

Chapter 1078 Industry Shock
result!

The engineers' enthusiasm was quickly dampened by reality!
Although they got the material they needed, carbon fiber steel!
But the problem is that the equipment they need is among the best in the country!

This means that there are not many of these devices!
The production of carbon fiber steel is used to make the frame of the base, and the quantity required is quite huge!
With all the equipment they currently have, it would take a lot of effort to produce the carbon fiber steel needed for a space gas station, and the machines have to run continuously!
It will also take three years to produce enough!
And this does not take into account the smelting and deep processing of the source materials!
If we take this into consideration, it might take even longer!

The human and material resources invested will be even more terrifying!
in this way!

There is another way to go - national participation!
When Chen An's idea of ​​assigning the production task of carbon fiber steel to private factories in various places was supported and announced, it was like a ray of hope that instantly penetrated the gloomy sky of private factories across the country.

In a small factory in the south, the boss Wang Qiang was sitting in a messy office with a gloomy look on his face. The pile of debt bills in front of him was like a heavy mountain, weighing him down to the point where he could hardly breathe.

The machines in the factory had long stopped roaring, and the deserted workshop seemed to be silently telling of its impending bankruptcy.

Just when he was almost in the abyss of despair and felt that there was no hope in life, he suddenly heard this heavenly news.

He suddenly jumped up from his chair, and his originally dull eyes instantly rekindled a warm and bright light of hope.

"This is our chance! This is the way God has given us to survive! We must seize it!" He excitedly shouted to the astonished assistant beside him, his voice becoming hoarse with excitement.

Immediately, he couldn't wait to call a meeting of all the employees who were still sticking to their posts and struggling.

"Brothers, our factory is saved!" Wang Qiang's voice was trembling with excitement, and he waved his hands as if to grasp the upcoming hope. "The state has assigned the production task of carbon fiber steel to our private enterprise. As long as we work together, the factory can be revived and we can live a good life!"

When the workers heard the news, they were first stunned with disbelief, and then burst into deafening cheers.

"Great, there's finally something to look forward to!"

"We must work hard and not let down the country's trust!"

In a machinery factory in the north, the boss Liu Gang was looking at the idle and rusty machines in the empty and quiet workshop with a sad face and sighing. At this moment, the phone rang suddenly. He picked up the phone absent-mindedly and listened to the message. Then, his face suddenly showed an expression of almost crazy ecstasy, as if he was struck by lightning and his whole body was full of new vitality.

"Hurry, immediately notify the workers who were laid off before and ask them to come back to work!" He shouted loudly to the equally shocked workshop director beside him, the veins on his neck bulging with excitement.

The workshop director woke up as if from a dream, nodded quickly, and started to make a phone call in a panic.

Zhang, a laid-off worker, has been doing odd jobs on construction sites to make a living since he left the factory. His wife has been ill in bed for a long time, and he has no money to pay for his children's schooling. His life is extremely difficult. When he received a call to return to the factory to work, he was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes and his lips trembled and he couldn't speak.

"Really? That's great! I'll go back right away!" Lao Zhang's voice was choked with sobs, as if a drowning man had grabbed a life-saving straw.

He hurriedly packed the meager luggage in his simple rental house and prepared to return to the factory he once knew well.

In another factory, boss Li Hua was discussing debt solutions with several gloomy-faced suppliers in the conference room. The atmosphere was so depressing that it was almost suffocating.

At this time, the secretary ran in in a panic, and said excitedly incoherently: "Boss, good news, great news, we have new production tasks!"

Li Hua opened his bloodshot eyes wide, unable to believe his ears, and was completely stunned.

"Hurry up, get ready to work! Start all the machines!" He shouted frantically to the equally stunned people present.

Suppliers have also recovered from their shock and expressed their willingness to continue supporting the factory.

When the workers learned that carbon fiber steel production would resume, they rushed to tell each other, and their excited voices echoed in every corner of the factory.

"Finally, I don't have to grovel around looking for a job anymore!"

"We must work harder and do this job well to bring honor to the factory!"

The entire factory area was immersed in excitement and anticipation. Everyone was ready to go all out for this crucial task, as if they saw a bright future beckoning them.

……

In front of Huayang Steel Plant!
The place was crowded with people who came to apply for the job early in the morning. The long line stretched all the way to the corner of the street.

In the crowd, there was a young man named Li Qiang, who used to be a street thug but is now determined to turn over a new leaf. He was wearing a neat shirt and lined up early.

"Li Qiang, come on, go play with the guys, don't wait here foolishly." A few old gangster friends passed by and shouted to him.

Li Qiang shook his head firmly: "No, I want to find a proper job and start over."

At this moment, there was a sudden noise in the queue. It turned out that two middle-aged men had a dispute over queue-jumping and even came to blows.

"Why are you cutting in line? Everyone is queuing here honestly!" a burly man shouted angrily.

"I'm anxious, my family is waiting for money!" The thin man who cut in line was not to be outdone.

The people around them tried to persuade them: "Don't fight, don't fight. It's not easy. Just follow the order!"

At the other end of the line, a middle-aged man named Lao Zhao came to apply for the job with his wife and children.

"Dad, can we be selected?" the child asked worriedly.

Lao Zhao comforted him: "Don't worry, as long as we work hard, we will succeed."

Lao Zhao's wife also said: "Yes, as long as the family works together, there will always be hope."

At this time, the factory staff came out to maintain order and shouted: "Everyone, please stop making noise and register one by one. Everyone will have a chance!"

The crowd gradually quieted down and continued to wait patiently.

……

The atmosphere in this heavily guarded prison is heavy and depressing.

The prisoners stood neatly in the empty playground. The sunlight shone on their faces, but it could not illuminate the confusion and uneasiness in their eyes.

The warden walked up to the podium with firm steps. He stood tall and straight with sharp eyes as he looked down at the people below.

He cleared his throat and began to read the declaration in a loud and serious voice:

"My brothers who are serving sentences, today, I stand here and want to talk to you about the important mission of steel production." His voice echoed above the prison and was clearly heard by everyone.

"You may have made mistakes and lost your way, but now, there is an opportunity in front of you, an opportunity for you to prove yourself again and regain your dignity! For those who actively engage in steel production and perform well, we will provide the following incentives.

First, we will reward individuals who work diligently and produce excellent quality products with reduced sentences. Every effort will be seen, and every outstanding performance may shorten the time it takes for you to return to society.

Secondly, we will give special recognition and rewards to those who make innovative suggestions in steel production, improve production processes and increase production efficiency, including increasing opportunities for communication and meeting with their families.

Moreover, for teams with particularly outstanding performance, we will provide them with better living conditions and more learning resources to help you improve yourself.

I believe that you also have such potential!" The warden clenched his fists, as if to pass on strength to everyone in the audience.

“Here, no one will discriminate against your past. They will only see your present efforts and future changes! As long as you work hard and strive hard, you will no longer be abandoned by society, but a part of the contribution to national construction!

When the red-hot molten steel comes out of the furnace and when the hard steel is formed, it is also your contribution, and it is the testimony of your rebirth!

So, brothers, raise your heads, straighten your spines, and bravely meet this challenge! Use your hands to create a different tomorrow for yourself! "

After the warden finished speaking, the playground fell into a brief silence, and then sparse applause rang out. Gradually, the applause became more and more enthusiastic, as if a flame of hope was ignited in the hearts of the prisoners.

……

In a spacious and solemn conference room, a huge conference table lies across the center, like an insurmountable chasm.

Mr. Li, the owner of the manganese mine, was sitting on one side of the table. He was wearing a slightly old but neat suit and his tie was tied tightly, as if to give himself some confidence.

There was slight sweat on his forehead, his eyes were tense yet determined, and his hands were tightly holding a pen, his knuckles turning white from the force.

Sitting opposite was Mr. Smith, an American buyer. He was wearing a finely tailored high-end suit, his tie was tied just right, and the famous watch on his wrist was shining brightly under the light.

He leaned back in a comfortable chair, crossed his hands over his chest, with a barely perceptible smug smile on his lips and a look of confidence that he was sure to win.

Mr. Li was the first to break the silence. His voice was slightly anxious, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing slightly. “Mr. Smith, our manganese ore is of high quality and there is a huge market demand. Look at the color of this ore. The faint purple light in the deep black is enough to prove that it contains a very high amount of manganese. The price cannot be lower than [30] yuan per ton.”

Smith crossed his arms over his chest, sneered, and flicked the nonexistent dust off his sleeves. “Mr. Li, you should know that there is an abundant supply of manganese ore in the international market. It is everywhere. And you are in urgent need of funds to expand production. [20] yuan per ton is the highest price we can offer.”

Mr. Li frowned, his heart full of anxiety, and his voice unconsciously rose a few notes: "This price is too low. Our mining costs are more than this number. Our miners work hard underground every day, and every piece of ore is condensed with their sweat. Moreover, our manganese ore has a high manganese content and less impurities, so it is definitely worth a higher price."

Smith raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: the international situation is not favorable to them, the economic situation is unstable, and the demand in other markets is also shrinking. He is sure that Mr. Li has no choice but to accept the low price. He shrugged helplessly, spread his hands and said: "Mr. Li, this is the market situation, and we are also taking risks in the acquisition." Mr. Li gritted his teeth and tried to fight. He leaned forward slightly and stared at Smith: "Mr. Smith, you can't lower the price like this. Our manganese ore is vital to your industry. Without our supply, your production will also be affected."

Smith laughed in his heart, but remained calm on the surface. He elegantly picked up the coffee cup in front of him and took a sip. "Mr. Li, you can't say that. There are other suppliers in the market. We don't need you."

Mr. Li's palms began to sweat, thinking about his factory, the workers waiting for their wages, and the loan that was about to expire. However, he was still unwilling to compromise easily. His voice trembled a little: "Mr. Smith, please think about it again. This price will really cause us to suffer heavy losses."

Smith was elated and felt that he had won. He put down his coffee cup, stood up, and straightened the corner of his suit. “Mr. Li, don’t waste your time. [19] yuan per ton. This is the final offer.”

Mr. Li looked pale, as if he had aged several years in an instant.

Why is the price getting lower and lower as we talk?

The current production capacity of manganese ore is actually very low, with large investment and poor output!
Moreover, costs from all aspects have increased the basic price of manganese ore!

but!

It is precisely because of the low production capacity that we are unable to meet the other party’s large demand!
Besides, there are other manganese industries in the country, and even other countries have higher manganese production!
But the good news is that Boss Li’s products have a pretty good purity!
But Smith was sure that the other party was eager to make a move and get the funds back!
The more urgently you need money, the less you get!

That's why Smith dared to push the price down so hard!

He is not afraid that Boss Li will not sell it!

And this time!
The TV on the wall is playing the news!

The TV had been on all the time, but the two of them were negotiating just now, so they turned the volume down to the minimum!
Now Boss Li fell into deep thought!
I was already thinking in my mind, 19 is 19!
At least I can get some money back!

If you don’t sell it!
Production cannot be stopped and the investment is huge!

In this way, the capital chain will definitely be broken!

Once he goes bankrupt, he will face huge debts!

Before this meeting with Smith, he was actually on the verge of bankruptcy!

Smith did not interrupt and let Boss Li think it over carefully!

After it became quiet, the sound of the TV became exceptionally loud!
"According to the New Associated News Agency, the most important source material for the carbon fiber steel produced in the Earth-Moon Project is manganese!"

"The project team is currently contacting manganese companies across the country!"

"Exports will also be restricted..."

Hear this!

I was just thinking about it in my mind, ready to agree to Smith's unreasonable price-cutting request!
At this moment, his eyes are shining!

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the TV!

Then he jumped up from his chair, ran over, picked up the remote control, and turned the volume up to the maximum!
It was too quiet just now!

In fact, Smith also heard the voice in the news broadcast!
His eyebrows also jumped and he looked at the TV in disbelief!

When Boss Li turned the volume up to the maximum!
He also heard the content of the news broadcast clearly!
He also stood up in disbelief!

this moment!
He understood that he would never get the manganese that he had been so determined to get just now!

The manganese purity of Boss Li’s is indeed quite good!
The company behind Smith also needs this high-purity manganese!

And he actually lied!
In the Central Plains, Boss Li is the only second choice among Smith and his team of import sellers!

The other company has high production and no problems with its capital chain!
So Smith and his team can only buy it at the normal price!
Also, information transmission was not very developed at that time!
Boss Li had no way of knowing how many sellers Smith had, let alone what other people’s prices were!

But just now, he was worried that if he was unwilling to sell it for 19 yuan, but others were willing to do so, then he would lose the only chance to recover his funds!

That's why he was caught by Smith!

And now!
He heard such news!
Suddenly became excited!
He heard about the production of carbon fiber steel yesterday!

It’s just because he is not in the related industry, so he doesn’t take it seriously!

Unexpectedly, this difficult-to-produce carbon fiber steel actually requires a large amount of manganese!

This has instantly put you in Boss Li's business!
"Hahaha……"

See this news!

Boss Li, who was in despair just now, suddenly burst into laughter!
In contrast, Smith's face was twitching wildly!
"Boss Li, I have decided. We will purchase your manganese at a price of 30 yuan!" Smith immediately changed his words!
Because he began to realize!

This news was broadcast nationwide!

He had to assume that the owners of other manganese mines had also seen the news!
This means that the price of manganese ore in the Central Plains will skyrocket from this moment on!
And if Smith and others want to buy it again, the price might be twice the normal price!

so now!
He must negotiate the price and the tonnage to be supplied with Boss Li before he can react!

Otherwise, if you want to buy it again after this time, it will be difficult and expensive!

Boss Li looked at Smith with a smile and said, "Fuck you!"

"I won't sell it to you!"

"I am patriotic!"

“The country needs it now!”

"Am I still worried about not being able to sell it?"

Smith's face was throbbing!
But he still tried his best to persuade: "But don't forget!"

"Your funding chain is now broken!"

"I can pay now!"

“Pay now!”

"Otherwise, you'll be sold to the Jingu Project!"

“That will also be a long process!”

"And can the speed of repayment keep up with your bankruptcy speed?"

"Boss Li, don't be naive!"

Now Boss Li really can’t wait even a day longer!

Because one day late, the operating expenses of the enterprise will be astronomical!

And with the capital chain broken, let alone one day!

Maybe in just one or two hours, a boss can fall from heaven to hell, instantly turning from a multi-millionaire into a multi-millionaire in debt!

By then, even if someone comes to buy your things!

The money that was returned was not enough to fill this huge hole!
So Smith felt that he still had a chance!

however!
What happened was counterproductive!

The office door was pushed open!
It’s Boss Li’s secretary!
He excitedly said to Boss Li: "Brother Li, someone from above came and said they want our goods and they want full payment right away!"

"They said our goods are pure and must be taken away from the yard immediately!"

this moment!
The secretary's arrival was like a ray of divine light shining upon Boss Li!

But it turned Smith's face, a white man, completely black!
