Chapter 31 Public opinion fermentation
The news that Baotian Industrial defaulted on payment to Weilai Company broke out again. In addition to the rumor that Baotian Industrial defaulted on payment to Shengxing Machinery Processing Co., Ltd. (Li Chao's company) that broke out yesterday, there have been two reports.
This news made Baotian a little bit unable to control the situation. A large number of investors left messages online to the secretary general asking about Baotian's business situation. Some people in the stock bar fanned the flames.
Baotian Industrial urgently issued an announcement to refute the rumors, stating that everything in the company is normal and the funds are in good condition. The reports about the so-called arrears of payment to the two companies are untrue. Baotian Industrial and Shengxing Machinery Processing Co., Ltd. have no arrears of payment. Shengxing Machinery's
There are defects in the product parts, and the entire batch needs to be inspected again before payment is made. Weilai Company's payment is due to a dispute between the two parties about the contract. After reaching an agreement, the payment issue will be resolved.
The problem between Weilai and Baotian is not big. It is because there is a dispute over the quality of a small number of products. The two parties delayed it for a while and it will be resolved immediately. But the timing of this matter is not very good. Because there was a problem with Shengxing Machinery in the past,
This directly caused Baotian Industrial to be at the forefront.
Shengxing Machinery issued an announcement online: Baotian Industrial's statement distorted the facts. There are no problems with the company's products. Baotian Industrial has conducted a comprehensive inspection and acceptance, and promised to pay the balance. Now it has been in arrears with the payment, which has affected the company's operations. Baotian
The industrial announcement mentioned that the company's products have quality problems, which have affected the company's image and sales. The company has decided to take up legal weapons to defend the company's legitimate rights and interests.
Baotian is popular again.
Senior officials of Baotian Industrial held a meeting. Zhang Yu banged the table at the meeting.
"What's going on?" Zhang Yu asked: "A small and broken company like Shengxing actually challenged us? Does it not want to do it anymore?"
"That's right." Vice President Ma Zhiyuan helped: "That guy named Li Chao calls me to ask for money when he has something to do. What's wrong with the arrears for a few days? It's not like our Baotian won't pay him back."
Baotian has been in arrears with Shengxing's payment for almost two months, which Ma Zhiyuan said was only a few days.
"I see that there must be someone behind me." After Ma Zhiyuan finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Yu.
After the meeting, Zhang Yu kept Ma Zhiyuan behind.
"Have you received any news, Lao Ma?" Zhang Yu asked.
"Mr. Zhang." Ma Zhiyuan looked at the door, turned to Zhang Yu and said, "That's what happened. At that time, wasn't it because Li Chao was Long Mingyi's classmate, so we withheld his payment."
"right."
"I guess it must be Long Mingyi's fault."
"It's the same as I thought." Zhang Yu nodded, "That's what I said. I thought Li Chao and Long Mingyi had a normal relationship. Why didn't Long Mingyi care about him? He was waiting for me here. How many days later?
God, just pay back the payment. It’s not a big problem.”
"Let the man named Long do this?" Ma Zhiyuan asked unconvinced.
"We can't just let it go." Zhang Yu said, "But we can't let it go at this juncture. First pay back the payment, and then let the people in Shengxing know the price of offending us."
"Block it first?" Ma Zhiyuan asked.
"Go call our friends." Zhang Yu said, "Don't do business with Shengxing."
Shengxing is mainly engaged in the machining business. To put it bluntly, regular customers come to it or salesmen go out to place orders. Where there is a batch of parts that need to be made, the salesman comes and gets the order. Shengxing makes those parts that do not require precision manufacturing according to the requirements.
Component.
Baotian overestimated himself. He could make an impact, but he couldn't let Shengxing collapse.
A factory like Shengxing doesn't accept big jobs, but can accept small jobs. At most, it will lose profits, but it can still afford food.
Ma Zhiyuan returned to the office and reluctantly called Li Chao's boss Li Feng. "You guys are prosperous. Let's be serious."
"Mr. Ma, we are also forced to have no choice." Li Feng's tone was not tough at all. "You pay the balance, and we will pay the dues."
"Liang Liang Qing? Definitely clear Liang Liang!" Ma Zhiyuan said: "The money will be paid into your account the day after tomorrow. But we will not cooperate in the future, and our friends and customers will not cooperate with you either."
"What do you mean?" Li Feng asked. At this time, Li Chao took the phone and said to Ma Zhiyuan: "Haha. Ma Zhiyuan, Mr. Ma, don't say that. We are also forced to have no choice this time. The profits of the manufacturing industry are low, and the factory
There are hundreds of people waiting to eat. That little money is insignificant to your Baotian Industrial, but it is what our small factory in Shengxing needs to survive."
"No more words to say." Ma Zhiyuan said: "Blocked." He kept these words and hung up the phone.
Li Feng looked back with pain, "What should we do, Li Chao? The money is coming back, and we will have less work to do in the future."
"It's okay." Li Chao said, "I recorded what he said just now."
"What's the purpose of recording?" Li Feng got even more headache, "Wouldn't this completely offend someone? Li Chao! Can you please stop making your own decisions? Who is the boss between us?"
"You are the boss." Li Chao said politely: "But do you think he can let us go?"
"this……"
"Don't worry." Li Chao said, "This recording will be of great use."
The recording of Ma Zhiyuan's phone call to Li Feng was exposed. The pressure of public opinion once again pressed on Baotian Industrial.
There are a lot of comments from netizens underneath the news.
Xinghai Feng: What qualities does this person have? He has a domineering attitude. Is this what he has to be a vice president? Now he has become a man who owes money?
Laoshu Pangen: If you want your money back, why do you have to ask your grandfather to sue your grandma? And block it? A big company can open its mouth and block a small company that wants justice at will? Justice lies in the heart of the people.
Yaya's Yaya: I have never seen such a shameless person! Worse than my former boss! Even if you do the right thing, he will say you are wrong. Those who flatter you for promotions, do things, and raise different opinions are suppressed. Also
There is no justice? A prosperous small company that seeks its own legitimate interests can be attacked like this? How can we do business in the future?
Struggling mother: I am a single mother, running a small business, and there are times when I am owed money for goods. If my family does not give me money, I will not be able to give it to the next family. I was blocked at the door and scolded for two hours by debt collectors, and I did not dare to say a word.
The child was so small that I was so frightened that I cried. Really, I wanted to die while holding the child. If I hadn’t been looking after the child, I would have jumped off the building and I would definitely not have survived. I support Shengxing’s rights protection!
There are hundreds of thousands of likes under this "true feeling" message like that of a struggling mother.
The article "When Will Big Companies Stop Violent Bullying?" pointed out that according to interviews with reporters, Baotian Industrial often bullies small companies with big companies. Among peers, he often squeezes out, and even deliberately lowers prices and competes maliciously.
When the wall fell and everyone pushed back, the opportunity came for the peers to make trouble for Baotian.
There are a lot of news items, both true and false. In short, they are all articles that are not conducive to Baotian Industrial.
Baotian's public relations department is going crazy. They need to stabilize Baotian's customers, stabilize Baotian's creditors, and visit banks to prevent loans from being cut off.
Ma Zhiyuan was in even more turmoil. The board of directors immediately suspended him, and Zhang Yu even scolded him bloody.
"Why are you shouting to ban Shengxing?" Zhang Yu pointed at Ma Zhiyuan's nose and scolded, "Are you short-sighted?"
"I didn't expect them to be so insidious." Ma Zhiyuan felt quite wronged, "Isn't this just to vent my anger? Who would have thought that they recorded a phone call I made."
"Public opinion! Public opinion! Nowadays, people on the Internet like to defend justice! They denounce you impassionedly one by one!" Zhang Yu said: "What should we do now? Do you think it will be over after you come out and apologize?"
Zhang Yu said angrily: "I have asked the reporter several times, and also searched the website, but these hot searches cannot be removed. Don't you understand yet? Long Mingyi launched an attack!"
"Then what should I do?" Ma Zhiyuan said: "For this matter, I have to take the blame and resign?"
"Is this a thing?" Zhang Yu was so angry that he was trembling, "It's easy for you to take the blame and resign! The stock price has been like this these days, and the shareholders now want you to compensate for the losses. A group of small investors started to make a fuss and started posting on the forum.
How about organizing rights protection? Once a lawsuit occurs, Baotian doesn’t know what will happen.”
"Isn't it illegal?" Ma Zhiyuan said, "What's the legal basis for this?"
"Is this important?" Zhang Yu said: "As long as this happens, you will not be able to go to that company in the future. Your career..."
