Chapter 318 Mission
"Brother Chen, it's not that I don't understand the overall situation, nor that I don't have a high level of awareness, and it's not that I don't give you this face." Lin Yuhang took a puff of cigarette and said, "Although the current situation of Factory 8 has improved, everyone knows what Factory 8 was like before. Let's not talk about whether other factories supported us when Factory 8 was like that. Let's just talk about this 5 million. Do you think our Factory 8 is a banknote printing factory? Can we come up with so much money with our family background?"
"It's true that I'm the factory director, and it's also true that I'm the secretary as well. But after all, I'm the factory director and secretary of Factory 8, not Factory 3. Regardless of my job position and personal feelings, I have to consider the interests of Factory 8 first. Besides, Factory 8 is not controlled by me alone. All the employees and cadres in the factory are the owners of the factory. Taking such a large sum of money has damaged the interests of Factory 8. If this matter gets out, people will stab me in the back. Can I continue to work as the factory director?"
"That's right, I understand that." Director Chen nodded repeatedly, and then asked tentatively: "So, brother, tell me your secrets, how much can you help?"
After looking at Director Chen, Lin Yuhang knew that it was impossible not to bleed today. Perhaps this was the real reason why Director Chen called him here.
After thinking for a while, Lin Yuhang held up three fingers and said, "Three hundred thousand, at most three hundred thousand!"
"Three hundred thousand..." Director Chen frowned immediately. Although the number of three hundred thousand is not small, it is still far from the gap of the third factory. It is just a drop in the bucket!
"Brother, can't you give more? The ginseng and royal jelly from your Eighth Factory are selling very well right now. With such good profits, you should give out 300,000, right..."
"Brother Chen, three hundred thousand is not a small amount!" Lin Yuhang said before Director Chen finished speaking: "It is true that our products are selling well, but think about how long it has been since this product was launched. Even if I am a god, I can't make money all at once!"
"Besides, the raw materials of ginseng royal jelly are not cheap to begin with. At present, our factory is increasing production and expanding into the national market. Both supply and marketing demand and production require a lot of funds. To be honest, I don't have enough money myself. These three hundred thousand are squeezed out of my teeth."
At this point, Lin Yuhang glanced at Director Chen and said with a wry smile: "Besides, do you think the Third Factory will return the three hundred thousand to us in the future? We are all sensible people. To put it bluntly, this money is just a waste of money. If you are still not satisfied with this, I can do nothing..."
As he spoke, Lin Yuhang spread out his hands with a helpless look on his face.
Director Chen nodded in his heart. What Lin Yuhang said was not wrong. Besides, the bureau was not completely ignorant of the situation of the Eighth Factory. The Eighth Factory had money now, but the money was limited, at most only two or three million. Originally, the bureau wanted the Eighth Factory to help solve half of the problem, and the bureau would find a way to solve the other half. However, Lin Yuhang was only willing to pay 300,000 yuan, which was far from half.
"Can't there be more?" Director Chen couldn't help but ask again.
Glancing at Director Chen, Lin Yuhang was about to stand up without saying anything. Director Chen quickly grabbed him and said, "Brother, you have such a bad temper. We haven't discussed this yet, why are you running away?"
"What else is there to discuss? This is all you can . 300,000 is not a small amount. When I was the director of the Eighth Factory, there was not even 30,000 on the books, let alone 300,000. What? If this is not enough, I really have no choice."
Director Chen nodded repeatedly to show his understanding, and then continued: "But 300,000 is indeed a little less. Don't be anxious, brother, just listen to me."
Director Chen said: "The funding gap at the third factory is 5 million. The figure of 300,000 is a drop in the bucket and is completely useless. However, the bureau has also considered this problem and should find a way to solve part of it, but the other part still depends on the support of brother units."
"Brother, you are not an outsider, so there is no need for me to hide it from you. I will tell you the truth. The Bureau requires that Factory Eight pay half of the cost, which is 2.5 million."
"After all this fuss, do you think I look 250?" Lin Yuhang asked with a cold face.
"Look at what you said. 2.5 million is not 2.5 million, brother, don't be upset." Director Chen secretly groaned. What kind of job was this? The people who made the decision had no say in the matter, but he, who could not make to communicate. And to be honest, he really didn't want to offend Lin Yuhang. You know, Director Chen had always wanted to find an opportunity to have a good relationship with Lin Yuhang.
Looking around, there were only Director Chen and Lin Yuhang in the office. Director Chen lowered his voice and said, "I'm going to tell you something. Just listen and understand it. Don't ever say it came from me."
Lin Yuhang was stunned. When did Director Chen turn into a little radio speaker? Isn't this the rhythm that those gossiping women in the village like to say? How could he, a director of the management office, also use this trick?
But then again, Director Chen's words aroused Lin Yuhang's curiosity. Lin Yuhang nodded immediately and pricked up his ears, waiting for Director Chen to continue.
"Brother, this incident has caused such a big stir. Many people have complaints against the Eighth Factory. Don't underestimate those factory directors. They have been in the enterprise for so many years. The network of relationships behind them is extraordinary. Even some leaders of the bureau came from the original enterprise and have private connections with them."
"Let's not discuss other things, let's just talk about this. Even if you are not responsible and others are jealous, you can't do anything about it, right? The leader asked Factory Eight to help Factory Three, but the real intention was to take this opportunity to make you bleed, so that everyone's psychology can be balanced, which is not a bad thing for Factory Eight. Besides, Factory Three is the largest factory in the industry after Factory One and Factory Two . We can't just watch Factory Three collapse like this, right? If you help Factory Three today, both the leader and Factory Three will think highly of Factory Eight in the future. In the future... brother, you understand."
Director Chen's words were from the bottom of his heart. He would never have said them at the beginning. After hearing what Director Chen said, Lin Yuhang was also conflicted. He admitted that what Director Chen said made sense, but he was also unwilling to pay the money, and couldn't afford it.
"Brother, I know you are short of funds, but have you ever thought about why so many factories got involved in the cup warming packaging business? Now that the cup warming packaging business is failing, and you have developed ginseng and royal jelly, what if other factories also come to get involved?"
Lin Yuhang frowned, and suddenly felt a little confused. This was indeed a problem.
"The leaders are thinking about the overall situation . Since they have given Factory 8 a chance, they will definitely think highly of Factory 8 and understand its importance. If this is done, at least in the short term, the leaders will definitely not allow other factories to mess with Factory 8's new products. This will be a good thing for Factory 8 and for you personally."
Lin Yuhang nodded silently. Director Chen was right. If Factory Eight helped Factory Three, it would mean solving a problem for the leaders. For the leaders, Factory Eight would have a different weight in their hearts.
It is human nature to lean towards the Eighth Factory in the future work and take care of it later. After all, everyone has to have dignity and skin. It is impossible to pick up the bowl to eat and put down the chopsticks to curse. Besides, Lin Yuhang is not a person without background.
Ginseng Royal Jelly, this product is not a problem for each factory. From the name of this product, you can know what the raw materials of the product are, nothing more than ginseng and royal jelly. In addition, everyone is in the business of Chinese patent medicine, and they are experts in the prescriptions of Chinese patent medicine. Moreover, each factory has its own technical department. Buying two boxes of the products of the Eighth Factory from the market can quickly analyze what the formula is. Even if they don’t need to crack the formula of the Eighth Factory, they can still make it with their own ability.
As for the production, it is a bit difficult. After all, ginseng royal jelly is different from the previous warm cup packaging. Ginseng royal jelly is produced by filling in closed glass bottles, which is similar to the production method of Western medicine injections.
Since other factories are Chinese medicine factories, they don't have these production equipment. If they need to produce, they must first purchase the equipment, and then debug and install it. The price of the equipment is not cheap. The whole set of production lines, including pipeline facilities, is not cheap. Let's not talk about whether the factories that suffered heavy losses in warm cup packaging can afford this money. Even if they can, it is impossible to buy the equipment and put it into formal production within half a year. After half a year, I'm afraid that the eighth factory will have already rolled out its products in the national market.
Of course, another way is to borrow similar equipment from Western pharmaceutical factories and adopt a production method in which the raw materials are prepared in advance and then canned on the assembly line. This avoids equipment problems and production time problems. Of course, the premise of doing this is to have a cooperating Western pharmaceutical factory.
But no matter which one it is, it will have a certain impact on the products of Factory 8, especially the latter one that makes Lin Yuhang more vigilant. If the superiors can directly issue an order to temporarily not allow other factories to enter this product industry, then it can buy precious time for Factory 8. By next year, the products of Factory 8 will have already established their brand and been recognized by the market, and there will be no need to worry.
"What does Brother Chen mean...?" Thinking of this, Lin Yuhang asked Director Chen.
Director Chen smiled and whispered a few words into Lin Yuhang's ear. Lin Yuhang was stunned at first, then frowned. He smoked without saying a word, and after a long time he threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray and put it out.
"really?"
"really!"
"This is not a trivial matter, I need to think about it carefully."
"Of course, we have to consider it, but the third factory..."
"How about this, I'll prepare 300,000 yuan when I get back. I think with this 300,000 yuan, the Third Factory can still hold on for a while, at least paying salaries shouldn't be a problem. As for the rest, give me a week and I'll figure it out, okay?"
"A week? Brother, that's a bit too long. How about three days? The leader is waiting anxiously. Just think of it as helping a brother."
Lin Yuhang thought for a moment and nodded: "Then three days. Today doesn't count. Let's start counting tomorrow. I'll give you news in three days."
"Okay, okay. Then I'll wait for good news from you, brother." Director Chen smiled and nodded repeatedly, then personally saw Lin Yuhang out. After seeing Lin Yuhang off the building and watching him ride away on his bike, Director Chen turned around and went back into the building, taking two steps at a time and going straight up to the fourth floor.
After reaching the fourth floor, he quickly walked to the leader's office and knocked on the door. It was the leader's secretary who opened the door. Director Chen nodded to the secretary and then asked if the leader was there. The secretary, who had known that he was coming, smiled and said that the leader was waiting for him.
The secretary took Director Chen inside and closed the door.
"lead……!"
"Have you talked to Xiaolin? How is it going?" A square-faced leader wearing a Zhongshan suit was sitting behind the desk. He was reviewing documents when he heard footsteps and looked up. He saw Director Chen coming in, so he put down the pen in his hand and asked.
Director Chen smiled before he spoke, nodded his head and gave his leader a thumbs up: "Leader, you are really smart! Your previous guess was absolutely correct. I feel that this matter is basically done!"
