Chapter 1293 The Second Trump Card
Liu Jian was able to instigate Ling Feng and some middle and senior management to leave Dengfeng Steel, which was his first trump card.
Zhang Xiaobai admitted that he had the ability and had already calculated this, so he suggested that it would be okay even if the production was stopped.
What he didn't expect was that Liu Jian calculated that Zhang Xiaobai would not stop production.
In fact, Liu Jian was only one-third right. In addition to Zhang Xiaobai's kindness, there were two other reasons why Dengfeng could not stop production now.
One was the pressure from the government. Since Dengfeng Steel was established, Zhang Xiaobai had a very good relationship with the local government with the help of Tang Jing, otherwise it would not be so easy for him to be the chairman.
Dengfeng Steel now supports 20,000 people. Once the production is stopped, it will not only affect GDP, but also cause social problems such as social security.
Second, it is not so easy for large steel mills to stop production. It is simple to shut down, but once the steel market improves, the loss will be tens of millions of yuan if the production is ignited again.
So Zhang Xiaobai and Tang Jing are very cautious about stopping production.
Zhang Xiaobai was thinking of countermeasures while playing coy with Liu Jian, and was still struggling with those middle and senior management. Since production is losing money, how can you lead them to make money?
In fact, Zhang Xiaobai already had the answer in his mind. This kind of thing is easy to solve.
Sure enough, Liu Jian threw out the same answer.
Liu Jian smiled and said, "You are soft-hearted, but I am not. Dengfeng Steel can't afford so many people in its current situation, but as long as it lays off employees, it can still guarantee profits."
Zhang Xiaobai asked, "With so many people unemployed, aren't you afraid that they will make trouble?"
Liu Jian smiled and said, "Go ahead and make trouble. What does it have to do with me? And I will tell you in advance that if you stay at home and the steel market gets better, you may still go to work. Once there is trouble, I will definitely not use it! Mr. Zhang, if you only use kindness to deal with those workers, you have to whip them with a big whip!"
Zhang Xiaobai stared at the complacent Liu Jian and said in a deep voice, "I really want to whip you!"
Having followed Zhang Xiaobai for so many years, Liu Jian naturally heard of his methods. A trace of fear flashed instinctively in his eyes, but it was only a flash.
Then Liu Jian laughed and pointed at several places above, "Did you see that? They are all cameras. Believe it or not, I will lie down if you hit me. At least it will be a minor injury!"
Some things have to be avoided. Liu Jian knows Zhang Xiaobai's temper and the abilities of the people around him, so he has made preparations.
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm a principled person. Let's fight openly. If you don't play that game, I won't play it either."
Liu Jian poured two cups of tea and politely handed one to Zhang Xiaobai. He exhaled and said, "Boss Zhang, don't struggle. You know me. Since I've done this, I must have made sufficient preparations."
"Let's be frank. Even if I don't make a move, Dengfeng won't last long. Now it's losing last year's profit. What will it lose next? Your money or Boss Tang's money? Brothers Travel has spent so much money and now there is no profit. I also know something about the situation of the treasure box. The current situation is much worse than before. What else can you do to support Dengfeng?"
"At least we have cooperated for a while, let's part ways in peace. I won't use the method you used to deal with Yang Shiju to deal with you. As long as you agree to withdraw from Dengfeng with Boss Tang, I will definitely give you a satisfactory price!"
When dealing with Yang Shiju, it can be said that he was kicked out of the house with nothing, and he didn't get any benefits in the end. He used the asset-liability method.
Liu Jian is not kind-hearted, but it is impossible to do that under the current situation. It's just that the words sound better.
Zhang Xiaobai took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "It seems that you are not the only one who attacked me this time, there are other allies!"
Although he did not ask Liu Jian how much money he could pay, he certainly could not afford it, so there must be a big boss supporting Liu Jian behind him.
Liu Jian smiled and made a hush gesture, "It can only be understood but not expressed in words!"
Zhang Xiaobai did not dwell on this question and said: "Tell me about your second trump card!"
Liu Jian frowned, "Isn't this one enough? Do you really want to watch us kill each other and the workers lose their jobs?"
Hearing such a shameless sentence, Tang Jing finally couldn't help it and said coldly: "I really want to beat you to death!"
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and said: "Sister Jing is happy and angry, why do you have to argue with an ungrateful dog?"
Providing him food and drink and finally biting back, what else is it if not an ungrateful dog?
Liu Jian said in a deep voice: "Let's try it. I don't care if we get hurt. You two are the major shareholders of Dengfeng Steel. I'll give you one last word. Either you lose everything or you withdraw with the money!"
Zhang Xiaobai waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't scare me with this. I have a way to deal with your next trump card!"
Liu Jian raised his eyebrows and asked: "What is the way?"
Zhang Xiaobai also made a shushing gesture and whispered: "It can't be understood, let alone explained!"
Liu Jian took a few puffs of cigarette slowly, then looked at Ling Feng on the side, and Ling Feng winked at him.
Retracting his sight, Liu Jian flicked the ash and said: "Okay, then I'll tell you the next trump card. Even if you can really solve the previous problem, you can't get through the next difficulty!"
Zhang Xiaobai crossed his legs and said calmly: "Tell me!"
Liu Jian pulled the corner of his mouth and said: "A good cook can't cook without rice!"
Zhang Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then sighed, "Hu Zi is really not your opponent, I regret it!"
Zhang Xiaobai understood the meaning of that sentence. Steel production requires raw materials. It seems that iron powder iron ore has been controlled by Liu Jian.
Liu Jian said: "Hu Liang is just a supply and marketing minister. His status is far behind mine. And with his brain, it is normal for him to lose to me!"
"Boss Zhang, you could rely on Shi Lei, Zhao Tianhao and Li Xiongfei before. Now they have no mines. Who can you rely on? The only few large-scale iron ore owners still in production in Tangcheng are all my friends!"
Zhang Xiaobai clapped his hands, then raised his thumb and said, "Great!"
Liu Jian smiled and said, "You're welcome. I learned it from Boss Zhang."
This is true. Zhang Xiaobai used this trick before. When he was a dealer, he dominated all the ore dressing and mining in Tangcheng. He used this trick to destroy Li Pingyuan.
Zhang Xiaobai asked: "In order to deal with me, have you studied all the tricks I used before?"
Liu Jian said: "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated! I don't need to worry about dealing with others, they are all a bunch of idiots, but if I want to fight against Mr. Zhang, I have to be fully prepared early."
"Mr. Zhang, let me tell you this, I have thought of everything you can think of, so this is a dead end, there is no solution!"
Zhang Xiaobai was silent for a while, shook his head slowly, and said: "Tell me the next trump card!"
