"You must also remember that you represent not only the interests of Chinese shareholders, but also the interests of our group. You cannot blindly expand the industry. We can tolerate you by expanding factories and increasing investment in equipment, but if you insist on going your own way, you will not be able to do anything without it." We will never tolerate borrowing from banks without clear orders."
"Ji, you need to know who is the real major shareholder, Caidong. The only condition for our additional investment is that any decision you make is reasonable and not something someone promised you now. This is not right. Stable, do you understand? Have I made it clear..."
As the investment projects gradually increased, the disputes between Ji Donglai and the foreign shareholders became more and more serious.
Ji Donglai would quarrel with these people almost every time he had a meeting, and it was even more so today.
No matter how much Ji Donglai emphasized, this order would definitely be implemented. Moreover, Li Qingfu paid part of the material money from the company, but the foreigner remained unmoved.
"Ji, the only condition that allows us to make an effective addition is that we send an additional financial officer to supervise your financial expenditures and ensure that all the money is used for this project."
"Of course, the premise is that we have to re-evaluate this project, and it will be evaluated by the experts we hired, not your decision alone. Everything must be carried out strictly in accordance with the system, and you are absolutely not allowed to be so rash, not now, nor in the future. This is the bottom line for our investors.”
Faced with Ji Donglai's insistence, Shulit did not give in at all.
The remaining shareholders also completely ignored Ji Donglai's opinions at this time. Now they all have only one opinion: no rash actions are allowed.
"Are you competing with me? If we don't take action on such a good project now, Party A will think that our attitude is not positive. Once the project is approved, it will definitely have nothing to do with us."
"Schulite, tell your shareholders that you don't understand China's large state-owned enterprise system, let alone the sophistication of people here. In many cases, if we strictly follow your rules and regulations, what else can we change?"
"If you don't make additional investment, I will borrow money from Yishi Investment and enter the company to do it, and it will be counted as the company's loan. I will send people over to supervise at every turn. Even if your people come to China, they will still have the same moral character as when they were in your country. So stubborn, the market is changing, we can’t be so rigid..."
Facing the more stubborn foreigners every time, Ji Donglai raised his hands and almost hit the table. Xinli quickly tugged at the corner of Ji Donglai's clothes, and Ji Donglai held back his anger.
The foreigners were also very dissatisfied at this time. After all, the foreigners were used to being arrogant and had invested in so many companies. No professional manager had ever been so tough on shareholders, especially Asian managers, who were not the kind to be groveling.
"Ji, don't do such a fearless thing. Any big thing made by Yiyuan, especially the big thing involving investment, must be done strictly in accordance with the company's rules and regulations. Any decision you make without approval from the board of directors is illegal. .”
"Once we discover this kind of thing, we can send people to take over the company at any time. Of course we don't like this kind of thing happening, but if you insist on doing it, we don't mind making this kind of thing become a reality."
"The prerequisite for cooperation is that we respect each other, and the prerequisite for mutual respect is that we all respect the rules. Have we made it clear?"
Facing Ji Donglai becoming more and more irritable every time, Shulit and other shareholders were very dissatisfied.
The other party is very happy to get benefits, but everyone likes an obedient and capable professional manager, not a thorny person like Ji Donglai.
Ji Donglai still wanted to argue with the other party. Xinli touched Ji Donglai under the table and winked. Ji Donglai hesitated and swallowed what he said.
"Next topic!"
Knowing that the entanglement would yield no results, Ji Donglai had no choice but to proceed to the next step.
Seeing that Ji Donglai finally gave in, Shulit also breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone started to ask the next question. Overall, the evening's board meeting didn't accomplish much, and it was basically just small things.
"This won't work in the long run. We must not let these damn foreigners get away with the order we spent so much money on. I can't even explain it to Mr. Deng."
After hanging up the wheat, Ji Donglai immediately lit a cigarette and took several puffs before suppressing the anger.
“It’s not impossible to stock up in advance, but it’s risky.”
Looking at Ji Donglai's appearance, Zhao Shuying knew that Ji Donglai was serious.
"Let's talk about it, every order we make has risks, as long as it is within a controllable range!"
Hearing what Zhao Shuying said, Ji Donglai quickly put out his cigarette, and Xin Li also put down the notebook in her hand.
"Yi Shi Investment signs a contract with a sales company, and then the sales company directly places an order for Yi Yuan Manufacturing. The risk of doing this is whether Datong will agree to transfer the target to Yi Shi Investment."
"State-owned enterprises have similar regulations, and it will be very troublesome for Li Qingfu to get it done. Once the higher authorities investigate, they find that the contract is not for one-yuan manufacturing, but for ten-yuan investment. There will be big or small problems here."
"Of course there is another way. Let's talk to Mr. He to set up a company. Yishi Investment and the other party's investment don't need to be much. The other party will provide a symbolic contribution of 1.8 million. The rest of the money, Yishi Investment will lend it to the company. The joint-stock company places orders with the sales company.”
"Relatively speaking, the second method has the least risk. In the future, the contract with Datong will be with a joint-stock company, and we can even transfer the after-sales service to this joint-stock company as a matter of course. This can be regarded as saving money for Li Qingfu. There is a reason. , it will be easy for Mr. He and his superiors to explain.”
Zhao Shuying took a pen and wrote two patterns on the white paper as he spoke. Xinli's heart was in her throat at first. It was not until the second method was proposed that Xinli felt relieved.
Holding her shoulders and looking at the model, Xin Li found that Ji Donglai was looking at her.
"I feel that the second method is feasible. This matter can be discussed directly with Mr. He. Now Jinmei Group also needs a medium for its foreign investment, and direct investment is not easy to explain."
"By doing this, we have also formed important cooperation with Jinmei Group. When it comes to some investments in the future, we can even synchronize with Jinmei Group. With such a big capital at our side, our external image will be directly improved. "
"Of course we can withdraw when the time is right. At that time, it will be a sure-profit deal. Mr. Zhao has to personally take action this time. Mr. Ji and I are relatively poor in finance."
