Chapter 308: The Price of Greed
"Boss, we've already dealt with the Norwegian shipping king."
When Wang Yizheng took You Ji to Mount Fuji to ski, Lin Shiqin also heard the news that the Norwegian shipping king was closing in.
It went better than expected...
"The staff was able to handle it so easily?"
"He secretly transferred the Norwegian shipping magnate's property and had a tryst with the shipping magnate's lover. He had no choice but to agree."
Lin Shiqin answered with a smile, as if it was not a big deal.
The flesh of the Norwegian shipping king was to be eaten, and that was what Umbrella needed.
But Umbrella’s own reputation cannot be affected by this.
To put it bluntly, the value is not enough.
Anyway, we in Umbrella are well-known around the world for being money-spending boys, and we are used to spending lavishly.
No one will suspect that we are defaulting on our debt, right?
"Okay, just follow the original plan. If the shipyards keep pushing, I guess someone at Da Piaoliang can't wait any longer."
"Indeed, many members of the House of Representatives have begun to meet with each other. This time, it is not just one or two forces, so we cannot use the same means as before. Or maybe they are waiting for us to use this means."
Lin Shiqin's monitoring ability is impeccable. No matter how careful, how covert, or even if it is an intranet, as long as they are public figures, they will leave some traces and clues.
In Yemen, Umbrella can be said to have given Da Piaoliang a great embarrassment.
The reason they didn't get angry immediately was because they still had to clean up their mess in Yemen. The rabbits and the Russian bears on the investigation team's side have been acting weird.
In fact, the manufacturers of those devices can be investigated, and with the serial numbers, it is also clear to whom they were sold!
Some people will definitely have to be handed over for explanation, now it depends on how much it will cost.
Therefore, the revenge against Umbrella is still in the works.
Besides, Umbrella has already exposed you, and now you are sanctioning Umbrella. This...
Isn't that just confessing yourself?
So we are actually waiting for Umbrella's action, waiting for Umbrella to use the means of "real business war"!
Yes, Umbrella does have a trump card, and it is extremely threatening.
But the reason why the trump card is a trump card is that it will not be easily taken out unless it is absolutely necessary.
Coincidentally, Da Piaoliang or Western capital likes to constantly test other people's bottom line. From time to time, they will make some disgusting moves to see the reaction and make corresponding assessments!
Whatever you want to do against Umbrella now will be no exception.
They won't force you into a desperate situation all at once, but slowly nibbling away at you in small steps and testing you are now inevitable.
People may resort to fistfights over a disagreement, but there are usually many signs of conflict between forces.
"Let them see. We have made a lot of preparations. We can stop them if they come."
Taking Youji to the Mount Fuji ski resort, they both changed into ski suits and put on goggles.
It’s true that we came here to catch the Yamata-no-Orochi, but since we’re here, we might as well have some fun.
The scenery in this place is pretty good.
Anyway, Yuura and Tamamonomae are there with Kusado-gami...
…
"Mr. Hansen, it's a pity. The costs here have risen sharply recently, and we can't afford it. In addition, we have received some hints from the federal authorities. If we complete the agreement with you, we will also have a headache."
The Norwegian shipping magnate personally met with the representatives from Umbrella.
"Well, what suggestions and opinions do you have?"
Hansen is one of the new employees. He was originally a Japanese professor. With some implanted skills and knowledge, he can handle the situation with ease.
"We still value our cooperation with you, so if you are willing to increase the price by 20%, we will still actively implement the agreement and overcome difficulties."
The Norwegian shipping magnate lowered his voice and pointed out that according to some clauses in the contract, he was entitled to make these demands.
"This is not my intention. It's just that you have offended too many people."
"The people we offended? Are you talking about the CIA involved in the previous biological and chemical incident? They have already clarified everything, and I don't think they will deal with us. It's you, the shipping king, who is worrying too much."
Hansen said steadily.
Upon hearing this, the Norwegian shipping king smiled and said
"In fact, we all understand what this means, don't we?"
From the perspective of the Norwegian shipping magnate, Umbrella has offended Da Piaoliang and is in a very desperate situation. In addition, Umbrella is rich and certainly does not want to create more trouble!
You have to know that when they placed an order with the Gaul Atlantic Shipyard, they had to pay a 60% deposit in advance, and the cost was extremely high if it was expedited.
In comparison, the overall price of the ship we modified is only two-thirds of the price of a new ship after the modification is completed.
Even if they increase the price by 20%, it is still much cheaper than the price they set temporarily.
No matter which aspect it is, the other party will definitely compromise and agree!
Only those who have faced it can clearly understand how strong Da Piaoliang's sanctions are .
As the makers of the global trade order, they are both players and referees.
It can be said that there is no solution for a single enterprise!
So what if special operations are strong?
So what if the technology is high?
There will always be things you cannot do, things you are lacking in, and things you have shortcomings in!
And Da Piaoliang can use your weaknesses to check and balance you.
The Norwegian shipping magnate knew he was adding insult to injury.
But even if you knew, what would it matter?
When the wall falls down and everyone pushes it, the wall that is pushed down has no ability to retaliate against those who pushed it one by one!
When you are sanctioned, there will be many people who will take advantage of you. I am definitely not the most ruthless one, nor the one who benefits the most. You don't have time to care about me.
"In fact, I know the pricing of your new platform. Even if I asked for a 50% increase, your company would probably agree. But I didn't. I only want 20%."
The Norwegian shipping magnate still maintained his outward composure and seemed to have made some concessions.
Hansen nodded upon hearing this.
"That's true. Fine then, cancel the contract and we don't want the deposit."
After saying that, he stood up directly, leaving the smiling Norwegian shipping magnate a little slow to react.
What?
What did you just say?
It was not until Hansen pushed the door and left that he woke up from his dream.
This is a trick, right? He is pretending to leave, right? He will turn around soon, right?
Among the assets that you intercepted before, the ships have also been handed over to us for modification, and the deposit has also been paid in advance.
According to the contract, I can eat it all!
You have more to lose!
All the money is lost !
The Norwegian shipping magnate only panicked when a subordinate came running over to remind him that the representative had already left by car.
Really?
What’s the point!
Although he now has all the goods in his hands, it seems that the loss is not great.
They even seized many ships that Umbrella had used for modification.
But after these things were modified according to Umbrella's drawings, no other party could use them!
Unless you spend money again to change it back!
However, the Norwegian shipping magnate had to pay a lot of the original modification costs himself, which exhausted his working capital and he even had to borrow money from the bank.
He doesn't have the money for this modification now!
For a moment, he couldn't help feeling panic in his heart.
"Quick, stop him and tell him there's still room for negotiation! We can make concessions!"
The next moment, his secretary's important mobile phone rang, and then he received notifications from some ports.
Umbrella has revoked the authorization of the shareholder representatives!
Umbrella had previously seized his port shares from his property. In order to show its sincerity, Umbrella had given him representation authorization to protect his position.
But now that everything has been taken back, his right to speak has been instantly affected!
"Boss, Umbrella has issued an official announcement."
"What?"
When the Norwegian shipping magnate saw Umbrella's official announcement, he lost his balance and his body began to shake.
The notice was very simple, clearly stating the causes and consequences of the cooperation with themselves, and attached the contract.
Finally, there is a video recording of this negotiation!
Even including his comments on Da Piaoliang and the CIA!
Yes, you can sue them without permission.
But Umbrella is clearly not afraid of being sued in this way.
For a time, the Norwegian shipping tycoon felt like he was falling into an icy cave.
After this official announcement, it shows to everyone that they are "not doing well".
What capital is best at is praising the powerful and bullying the weak!
At this time, it would be impossible for him to borrow money, and the bank would immediately withdraw the loan.
In addition, those shipyards that have not yet paid the balance of the modification fee will be the first to collect debts from me!
What was originally a good game of chess suddenly turned into a dead end...
