Chapter 229 asking price everywhere

"Director Yang, our group has enough land in Haidu. If you give us two more pieces, we will have to waste it there and have no time and energy to develop. Wouldn't this waste those two pieces of land in vain?"

After hearing Yang Yi's words, Zhao Dongsheng said to him with a smile and declined Yang Yi's proposal. Although Yang Yi's proposal was sincere, it still could not compare with the value of the 37 Russian experts. Zhao Dongsheng never did a loss-making business.

Moreover, now it is not just a dispute between Warwick Group and Jiangnan Shipyard, it involves the face between Hedong Province and the Shipbuilding Industry Corporation. Of course, Zhao Dongsheng could not agree to Yang Yi's conditions so easily.

When Yang Yi heard this, his brow frowned slightly. He felt that his price was already large enough, but he didn't expect that Zhao Dongsheng would refuse in one go. Apart from the two pieces of land, he had no bargaining chips in his hand to impress Zhao Dongsheng.

"Mr. Zhao, what do you think of this? Your Warwick Group and Jiangnan Shipyard have formed strategic partners. If you need ships in the future, our Shipbuilding Industry Corporation will sell them to you at a cost."

Seeing that there was a little cold in the small conference room, Tao Cheng suddenly spoke, smiled and said to Zhao Dongsheng, putting forward a new suggestion.

In Tao Cheng's view, since Zhao Dongsheng wants to get involved in the shipbuilding industry, he will definitely enter the field of maritime transportation. It can be foreseen that with the rapid development of China's economy, trade with countries around the world will grow rapidly, and the circulation of goods cannot be separated from maritime transportation, and there will be huge profits therein.

"Director Tao, you really know how to do business. Not only did you ask for our experts, but you also sold the boat."

Zhao Dongsheng looked at Tao Cheng with some surprise, but he didn't expect Tao Cheng to guess his next plan. After he got the shipyard business, he next formed a fleet, and then shrugged his shoulders to Tao Cheng:

"Director Tao, if you say it, then our group's shipyard plan will be put on hold indefinitely. How do you tell me to the employees and superiors of our group?"

"Mr. Zhao, your group's shipyard plan is not shelved. If you want to build a shipyard, our Shipbuilding Industry Corporation will definitely help you."

Tao Cheng saw that he guessed Zhao Dongsheng's plan, and he was really surprised. The areas involved in Warwick Group are becoming more and more extensive. It is difficult for him to predict that Warwick Group will develop to that scale in a few years, and answer with a smile.

"I believe your headquarters will definitely send experts to assist us."

Zhao Dongsheng nodded, agreed with Tao Cheng's statement, and then said with a smile, "But in this way, wouldn't our group owe your company favors? Isn't our group very unfair? Besides, even if your company has this meaning, will the shipyards below send us the best experts?"

"Mr. Zhao, our two parties are working together in a contract, and there is no such thing as human beings or not." Tao Cheng saw that Zhao Dongsheng's problem was very sharp, so he explained to Zhao Dongsheng with a smile, "You can rest assured that our company will directly send documents to transfer people. Even if the shipyard below does not want to release people, there is no way?"

"Although we know it is a cooperative relationship, but to the outsiders' eyes, your headquarters is supporting our group. What we could have done on our own will have many twists and turns in the middle. If this happens, will our group be unfair?"

Zhao Dongsheng is not a three-year-old child. How could he be persuaded by Tao Cheng in a few words? He smiled and looked at Tao Cheng and said, "Director Tao, I heard that there are policies and countermeasures from above. Although your headquarters can issue documents, the shipyard below can also not let people go under various excuses. Will your headquarters still force it? What's more, the forced melon is not sweet. Why should our group be this evil person?"

Unconsciously, Tao Cheng had replaced Yang Yi and became the representative of Jiangnan Shipyard. He started negotiations with Zhao Dongsheng. This was certainly related to Tao Cheng's authority being greater than Yang Yi and could make more promises to Zhao Dongsheng, and there was another important reason, that is, Tao Cheng's negotiation ability was far superior to Yang Yi, otherwise it would not have been possible that he would have taken the position of deputy director of the General Office of the Shipbuilding Industry Corporation under the age of 40.

"Mr. Zhao, then do you have any good suggestions?" After hearing Zhao Dongsheng's words, Tao Cheng knew that his conditions could not satisfy Zhao Dongsheng. The condition he had previously proposed was the maximum authority given to him by the headquarters, so he smiled slightly and began to test Zhao Dongsheng's bottom line.

"I can make any good suggestions. In order not to disappoint the expectations of our superiors and group employees, I can only bring those experts back." Zhao Dongsheng would not easily reveal his thoughts to Tao Cheng, so he shrugged his shoulders at him helplessly.

"Mr. Zhao, since the matter has happened and has attracted the attention of superiors, we should still discuss a solution."

Seeing that Zhao Dongsheng was very nervous, Tao Cheng smiled and said to him, "As long as you don't let those experts go, you can raise any conditions. Our company can also coordinate issues in other fields."

Zhao Dongsheng understood that Tao Cheng was hinting that he could exchange the 37 experts with other interests, and not limited to the marine field, but also other industries.

In Tao Cheng's view, the construction of a shipyard that Zhao Dongsheng said was probably just a bluff, because the construction of a shipyard not only requires mature workers, but also requires a suitable dock, which is not a simple matter. So as long as there is enough exchange of interests, Zhao Dongsheng will definitely compromise.

What Tao Cheng has to do now is to bargain with Zhao Dongsheng and negotiate terms and strive to meet Zhao Dongsheng's requirements at the lowest price.

"Since that's the case, I have a good idea." Zhao Dongsheng pretended to be deep and thought for a while, looked up at Tao Cheng, and smiled slightly:

"It would be better for our Warwick Group to acquire Jiangnan Shipyard. In this way, not only will the 37 experts stay in Jiangnan Shipyard, but I can also explain to my superiors and employees. Don't worry, I will acquire it at the best price and will definitely not let you suffer any losses."

"What?" Hearing this, not to mention Yang Yi, even Tao Cheng was shocked. No one expected that Zhao Dongsheng's appetite was so big that he wanted to swallow Jiangnan Shipyard.

"Anyway, our group is also a state-owned enterprise, and they are all state assets, and there is no problem of asset loss." Seeing that the two were so surprised, Feng Qingyun explained calmly.

"Mr. Zhao, this is not a question of whether the asset is lost or not. Jiangnan Shipyard is the most important shipyard of our headquarters, and it is impossible for our headquarters to sell it." Tao Cheng quickly reacted and explained to Zhao Dongsheng with a wry smile that Warwick Group is rich and powerful. If it acquires Jiangnan Shipyard, it can really give Zhao Dongsheng the "most preferential" price, but if that happens, the Shipbuilding Corporation will lose all its face.

"There is nothing I can do about this. This is the only way I thought of to resolve the conflict between us." Zhao Dongsheng shrugged his shoulders to Tao Cheng without regret.

"Mr. Zhao, Jiangnan Shipyard is related to the reputation of our company. Not to mention me, even the chairman of our company cannot agree to your request. Can you change the conditions?"

Tao Cheng pondered for a moment and looked at Zhao Dongsheng with a wry smile. When he met such a arrogant and capable young cadre, he could only accompany him to say good things.

"I have no other way, but Director Tao wants an idea to take into account the interests between us?" Zhao Dongsheng leaned on the back of the chair helplessly and looked at Tao Cheng.

"Since your group is also interested in entering the shipbuilding industry, I don't think so. Your group will be in the Jiangnan Shipyard. In this way, the 37 Russian experts can serve both of us."

Zhao Dongsheng really asked Tao Cheng a difficult problem. He pondered for a moment and said to Zhao Dongsheng in a deep voice that this was the best way he could think of to resolve the current differences and take into account the interests of both parties.

"Sharing shares?" Zhao Dongsheng nodded and asked with a smile, "I wonder how we invest and how many equity we hold?"

"You can only participate in the thirty-seven Russian experts. I think it can be considered 10% of your shares." Tao Cheng thought about it and gave Zhao Dongsheng an answer.

"One percent is too little." Zhao Dongsheng shook his head to Tao Cheng without thinking, and refused, and then said in a deep voice, "Our group adds another 100 million Chinese coins to account for 70% of the shares. After the shares are taken, the expenses spent by the Jiangnan Shipyard will be paid by our two companies in proportion. Of course, the income will be distributed according to this ratio!"

"70%?" Tao Cheng's brows couldn't help but frowned slightly. One hundred million Chinese coins were indeed a lot, and the thirty-seven incalculable experts were used to exchange for 70% of the shares of Jiangnan Shipyard.

However, this is not just a transaction, but also involves the reputation of the Shipbuilding Corporation: if Warwick Group accounts for 70% of the shares, it means that Warwick Group will control Jiangnan Shipyard, which means that Warwick Group will own the Jiangnan Shipyard, and the face of the headquarters will undoubtedly be damaged.

Yang Yi looked at Tao Cheng nervously. Once Warwick Group controls Jiangnan Shipyard, it will adjust the management of Jiangnan Shipyard. If the Warwick Group member is replaced, he will be transferred. His position at this level is a pit in the Shipbuilding Industry Corporation and its subsidiaries. Once he loses the position of director of Jiangnan Shipyard, it will be difficult to obtain a real position and can only hold a false position.

"Mr. Zhao, 70% is too much, which means we gave Jiangnan Shipyard to you for free. You should know that Jiangnan Shipyard not only has very outstanding experts and employees, but also has a leading manufacturing workshop and a factory with a superior environment in China. It has a very good development momentum. If it weren't for this dispute, it would be impossible to agree to the investment from the outside world."

Tao Cheng was silent for a while, and Zhao Dongsheng said solemnly that he had not told Zhao Dongsheng one thing, that is, the suggestion to make Warwick Group participate in the stake was made by him temporarily, and without the consent of the head office, the purpose was to resolve the dispute with Warwick Group.

Tao Cheng started from the grassroots level step by step. He knew the value of the 37 Ross experts. In addition, the Jiangnan Shipyard was wrong first. Therefore, if 10% of the shares could be used to solve this problem, it would be very cost-effective in his opinion, and the head office would support him in doing so.

However, Tao Cheng did not expect that Zhao Dongsheng actually made a request for 70% of the shares. If he wanted to take control of Jiangnan Shipyard, this was not something he could involve. He had to ask the leaders of the headquarters.

"Director Tao, in today's society with highly developed technology, knowledge is money, and it is also the source and driving force for corporate survival. Although Jiangnan Shipyard has the advantages you mentioned, if these 37 experts are in my hands, within five years, I will build a shipyard with a world-class level."

Zhao Dongsheng did not deny Tao Cheng's words. He looked at Tao Cheng with a smile and said in a loud voice, looking confident.
