Chapter 137 This road is blocked (additional update)
Willow branches on the moon.
Jiang Miao put down his headphones. He listened to the high-level meeting of Xiyuan Company. Through the translation software and his self-taught Korean, he had a clear understanding of the ins and outs of the matter.
‘Haha, it’s really a good idea, but it’s a pity that you don’t have a chance. ’
Early the next morning.
Hailufeng Company issued an announcement.
Immediately after, Kagoshima Eel Company also issued an announcement, and Brown Company finally issued an announcement.
As soon as these three announcements came out.
Relevant practitioners were shocked.
They did not expect that the price adjustment mentioned by the three major eel fry companies would actually be a collective price increase, raising the price of glass eels from the current 23,000 Chinese yuan per kilogram to 25,000 Chinese yuan per kilogram.
Of course, the price increase is not for cultured seedlings, but for edible seedlings.
Because the three companies also announced a news at the same time, that is, strict restrictions on "mixing of cultured seedlings and edible seedlings", that is, the use of cultured seedlings for food purposes is not allowed.
The reason given is also very simple, that is, the cultured seedlings contain undegraded chemicals, and it takes two to three months of breeding before the chemicals in the cultured seedlings can be completely degraded.
The price-increased edible glass eels are specially bred and do not contain chemical ingredients in their bodies.
At the end of the announcement, the customs authorities of various countries were reminded to strictly inspect eel fry produced through channels other than the three major eel fry breeding companies to prevent anyone from using cultured seedlings as edible seedlings.
Of course, the three major eel fry manufacturers also expressed that they welcome customs in various countries to conduct random inspections of their products at any time.
As soon as this announcement came out, relevant aquaculture practitioners thought that the three major eel fry producers wanted to crack down on second-rate dealers.
But some people who knew the inside story suddenly started thinking about it.
Also in Shanmei Seaview Company.
Gu Haijing looked at the announcement that his secretary had just printed and fell into deep thought.
The eldest son Gu Baiming next to him said in surprise: "Dad, what is going on? Are there really two types of eel fry from Hailufeng Company?"
"How do I know?" Gu Haijing's eyes narrowed slightly, and then the corners of his mouth raised: "Haha, but I know someone is going to be in bad luck."
"Why?" Gu Baiming was confused.
Gu Haijing patted the copy gently: "Don't you think it's strange? There was another announcement issued by Hailufeng Company three months ago, and there are also things circulating among aquaculture practitioners in various places."
< br>
"Dad, are you saying that Hailufeng Company is directing and acting for some people to see?"
"Isn't it? We will see the results soon. After all, the Xihai Company was hit by thunder in more than three months. This new unlucky guy is probably about the same."
"Jiang Miao is really scary." Gu Baiming felt a sense of awe towards Jiang Miao.
Gu Haijing admired Jiang Miao very much. After all, if you are not ruthless, you will not be able to stand still. If you dare to snatch his own egg-laying hen, you will attack him mercilessly. He smiled and said: "People like him are destined to die." Flying into the sky, we are not his enemies. If we follow him, we can have some soup.”
Hearing this, Gu Baiming stopped thinking about the unlucky ones. After all, they could just eat the melons quietly. He talked about the large number of eel fry he had purchased from Hailufeng Company. The first batch of eel fry had already passed five years. More than months of breeding:
"That's right, Dad, our more than a thousand acres of eels will be on the market after the Chinese New Year."
Gu Haijing still had high hopes for his eldest son. Although his talents were average, he could still do the job simply by being honest. He smiled and ordered: "I'll leave this matter to you. I don't expect anything from your brother. As long as he doesn't If you cause trouble, let him do the rest!”
Gu Baiming still cared about brotherhood to a certain extent: "Dad, you should pay more attention to him. If he gets involved in drug gambling or something like that, he will be ruined for the rest of his life."
"Well, I asked Dabao and Dongzi to keep an eye on him secretly. If he dares to get involved in gambling, I will go over and break his legs immediately."
…
at the same time.
Lumen City in southern Fujian.
Xie Xiaowei, who had slept until he woke up naturally, wiped his sleepy eyes, wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, stuffed the pillow behind his neck, picked up his phone and scrolled through the videos on the Music Note Platform.
Suddenly, he was recommended a video related to Hailufeng Company.
This is related to the fact that he has frequently searched for information about Hailufeng Company in the past few months. The system thought that he liked content related to Hailufeng Company and pushed it to him as soon as possible.
Looking at this simple video that had just been released for less than half an hour, his face lost any trace of laziness. He suddenly became excited and sat up.
“It’s actually a price increase?”
"Time! Three months ago?"
Xie Xiaowei quickly remembered that three months ago, Halofeng Company issued a price adjustment announcement. At that time, many practitioners thought that Halofeng Company was going to cut prices, and there were rumors that the company's confidential formula had been stolen.
As one of the parties involved, Xie Xiaowei certainly knew about the secret transaction between him and Zhang Xincheng.
Looking back now, he felt that this matter was full of doubts.
"As soon as I go back, I will represent the company and prove that the formula of eel fry is indeed effective. Zhang Xincheng naturally knows about this..."
"After my boss and I went to Busan, as soon as we came back, the laboratory and eel seedlings in the farm were burned down, and then the boss was electrocuted to death? His lover and illegitimate child also died..."
"Everything is completely unconfirmed..." Thinking of this, Xie Xiaowei's back felt cold: "As one of the few insiders, will I be..."
But he soon calmed down: "Probably not. As long as I don't take the initiative to publicize it, the other party will most likely not take me seriously. What's more, even if I take the initiative to expose it, it will be baseless."
When he thought of this, Xie Xiaowei realized that during the previous transaction with Zhang Xincheng, the other party did not give him any paper information or electronic documents, and all information was transmitted orally.
The fund transactions between the two parties are conducted through overseas bearer accounts.
Now, Xie Xiaowei became more and more certain that this matter was a game. He and Jiang Anye were just pawns, and maybe that old man Gao was also a pawn.
Although it was speculated that these things may be related to Hailufeng Company, Xie Xiaowei had no intention of publicizing it.
As for the idea of avenging Jiang Anye, even if Jiang Anye once saved his life, Xie Xiaowei had no idea of dying in order to repay his kindness. He finally got out of the whirlpool and now only wants to live a good life with his wife and children. .
What's more, he has done his best to Jiang Anye. At least he notified the other party's first wife and eldest son before leaving, which is equivalent to saving the other party's wife and son, one life for two lives, which is kind enough.
"Xiyuan Group is going to be in bad luck." Xie Xiaowei sighed, then lit a cigarette and took a deep breath:
"Huh..."
He has decided to stay away from Hailufeng Company from now on, so as not to be involved in this kind of thing again.
Faced with such ruthless and covert forces, a little gangster like him is not even cannon fodder.
If you get involved blindly, you may die miserably.
…
And father and son Kim Won-ki and Kim Haorui rested for a night at Busan Port.
Just got up, one is getting ready to catch a flight to North America, and the other is getting ready to return to the headquarters.
Suddenly Jin Yuanji's secretary knocked on the door.
"Come in."
The beautiful secretary hurriedly walked in wearing high heels. The heels of those high heels stepped on the wooden floor, like the sound of a DJ, which made Jin Yuanji a little upset.
"President, this is bad!"
"Did Han Yingze and his gang regret it?" Jin Yuanji frowned.
The secretary gasped: "Huhu... Hailufeng Company, Kagoshima Eel Company, and Brown Company issued a joint announcement this morning. This is the content that has just been translated. President, please read it."
When he heard the name Hailufeng Company, Jin Yuanji seemed to be in a state of stress as a manic patient. He grabbed the file and opened it to browse.
The more he looked, the more his hands shook. At the end, he angrily smashed the documents and the lamp on the bedside table together.
Bang!
The glass of the lamp was flying everywhere.
The secretary was so frightened that she turned pale, but she didn't dare to move.
"Damn it! Bastards! Despicable Chinese people! It's really you who did it! Whoops..." Jin Yuanji had lost his mind and was cursing hysterically.
Jin Haorui, who was next door, heard the sound and hurried over. When he saw his roaring father, he quickly grabbed his secretary and asked, "What happened?"
The female secretary who was granted amnesty quickly explained: "Vice president, this is what happened..." After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, Jin Haorui also sat down. After a while, he patted his face and stood up. He grabbed his father Jin Yuanji who was going crazy: "Dad! Calm down, we haven't fallen down yet."
Hearing this, Jin Yuanji regained some sense in his eyes, then sat on the mattress and covered his face with his hands: "I just lost my temper."
Although for Xiyuan Group, the loss of US$400 million was a very heavy loss, Jin Haorui was right, and their company has not collapsed yet.
After a while, Jin Yuanji stood up and completely regained his composure: "Heaman, please inform others to come to the meeting immediately."
"Yes, president." Secretary Jin Ximan quickly went out to inform the company's executives.
An hour later.
The conference room of the branch.
Jin Yuanji's face seemed to have aged several years overnight. He said slowly in a dry voice: "Everyone, our plan has completely failed. I admit that this failure was a mistake in my decision-making, but our Xiyuan Group has not fallen yet."
Other executives certainly got the message, too.
They did not expect that the three major eel fry producers would respond so quickly, which gave them no time to react before everything was settled.
Just a joint announcement completely failed Xiyuan Group's plot and severely damaged their company in an instant.
Jin Haorui also knew that he had to stand up, otherwise his brothers and sisters would not miss this opportunity. He stood up and bowed and apologized to all the executives:
"I'm very sorry. The failure of this project is also my fault. I will use all my savings, sell my car and yacht, and use it to compensate the customer for liquidated damages."
"Vice president, it's not your fault, it's all the opponent's conspiracy."
"Hey! The vice president is also doing this for the company, there is no need for this."
Several executives spoke quickly. Although they hoped that Jin Haorui and Jin Yuanji, the father and son, would bear all the responsibilities and losses, Xiyuan Group was not a listed company and Jin Yuanji was still the major shareholder. They did not want to be settled by the future.
Jin Yuanji sighed: "I will be responsible for this matter to the end, and I will repay the loss this time."
Although the loss of US$400 million is huge, Jin Yuanji has accumulated a lot of wealth in the past few decades.
If you sell all the unimportant personal properties and properties, as well as private yachts and the like, you can probably sell them for about US$120 million.
Then there are his private savings, a dozen overseas accounts, which add up to US$230 million.
His son Jin Haorui can raise US$50 million.
This $400 million hole can be filled.
If he doesn't do this, then his position as president will definitely not be secure.
Although Jin Yuanji holds 34% of the shares, when his father was alive, he set 36% of the shares as collective family shares. This part of the shares belongs to the fourth lineage of the Jin family, plus his two daughters and son-in-law, and they are jointly owned, but the proportions are not the same. .
The 36% of the family shares can be voted on internally to determine the overall voting intention of the 36% of the shares.
In other words, although Jin Yuanji's line owns 6% of the family's shares, it is of no use. As long as the other three lines, plus a sister's stock, can reach 24%, more than half of 36% will be Can vote as a whole on behalf of 36% of the shares.
This is also to prevent the Kim Won-ki family, as the heirs, from infringing on the interests of other family members.
Now that he has made a wrong decision, he must pay the price, otherwise the rest of the family will immediately unite and remove him.
Jin Haorui had the same idea.
If his father loses his position as president, then he, the heir, will also be in bad luck.
When Jin Yuanji thought that the assets of more than 300 million US dollars, which he had worked hard to earn over the past few decades, had suddenly lost 80%, he couldn't help but bleed in his heart.
When he thought of this, he felt fierce in his heart: "Dachang."
"Here, President, please give me your instructions." Park Dachang quickly stood up.
Jin Yuanji clenched his fists: "You have to appease Dr. Han Yingze and others. Next, we will continue to invest in the research and development of artificial production technology for eel fry."
"This?" Park Dachang looked at Jin Yuanji strangely.
"I can't swallow this breath. I don't believe we can't study it." Jin Yuanji looked unwilling.
"I understand." Park Dachang knew that Jin Yuanji was angry, but he had no choice. Who would let him be the president? At the same time, if he thought about it from his perspective, if he were Jin Yuanji, he would probably not be reconciled.
As Jin Yuanji and Jin Haorui bowed to apologize and assumed full responsibility and compensation, the crisis within Xiyuan Group was temporarily suppressed.
But Kim Won-ki has not forgotten the external crisis.
He quickly ordered Jin Haorui, with full authority on behalf of Xiyuan Group, to cancel orders with customers who had previously signed contracts and compensate them for 30% of liquidated damages.
Otherwise, when those customers react and the two sides go to court, it will be a fatal blow to Xiyuan Group's corporate reputation.
What's more, a large part of these customers are Xiyuan Group's old customers in Europe and the United States. If they don't compensate these customers, they won't have to do business in the future.
Less than a week.
Brown Company, which had already arranged for people to deliberately fish for the Xiyuan Group, obtained US$75 million in compensation through dozens of leather bag companies throughout Europe and the United States.
According to the secret agreement between Brown Company, Sealand Company, and Kagoshima Unagi Company, the three companies jointly shared the US$75 million, and each company received US$25 million.
What a good man!
Brown, CEO of Brown Company, directly called Xiyuan Group a good person, and in one fell swoop paid for more than half of the US$30 million they had spent on purchasing technology from Sealux.
Junichi Watanabe, the president of Kagoshima Eel Company, even wondered if he could follow the same pattern and trap a few more unlucky people.
After all, a scam of 25 million US dollars at a time, multiple scams, is higher than their company's net profit in a year.
Fortunately, they all still have sense, and this kind of thing can be done one at a time.
Already, Xihai Company, Anye Company, and Xiyuan Group have suffered successive setbacks at the hands of Hilufeng Company. In the future, other companies may not be so easy to take advantage of the technology flowing out of Sealufeng Company.
Over the past week, Xiyuan Group has continued to compensate customers in Europe and the United States, and this matter was quickly exposed.
Many people in the industry at home and abroad now know that the Sewon Group in South Korea has suffered a big setback with eel fry. Some estimate that the Sewon Group has lost at least two to three billion US dollars.
This incident quickly spread on the Chinese Internet.
on the musical note platform.
In the past week, bloggers have made various speculations about the two announcements made by Hailufeng Company.
Until the news came from the Internet, the comment area under the video of several bloggers who guessed part of the situation became lively in an instant.
Silent Fish: [Blogger God’s prophecy! 】
Three Mouse: [It seems that the blogger guessed it, the Xiyuan Group in South Korea was hit by thunder, hahaha. 】
Aluminum alloy ant nest: [Hai Lufeng Company is so scary! There was the Ryukyu Saikai Company in the front, and the South Korea Saiyuan Company in the back. They were almost the same. 】
Chemistry stuff: [Stealing other companies’ confidential formulas, you deserve to die! 】
Dalei Mr. Zhang: [According to reliable information, Xiyuan Group may lose 400 million U.S. dollars, which is really satisfying. Guys like this who like to steal things should be given a stick. 】
Observation Animal Network: [Is this a business war? I thought high-end business wars were all about watering money trees and the like, but I didn't expect such high-end operations. 】
The inheritor of the intangible heritage of earth plane: [@ObservationAnimal.com, one glance at the thimble, this is a low-end business war, I am an authentic old craftsman, V, I am 50, let you see what an earth plane is. 】
The farmer's three punches were a bit salty: [In the future, no one will dare to steal technology from Hailufeng Company. Once this technology is stolen, a company will be sacrificed. 】
Hoh Xil Wolf Culture Media Co., Ltd.: [Lie down and eat melon, it feels so good. 】
Although the popularity of this matter on the Internet once reached the top five on major platforms, Hailufeng Company and Xiyuan Group did not respond.
Although everyone in the industry knows that Xiyuan Group has most likely fallen into the trap of Hailufeng Company, no one has any evidence.
What's more, among the causes and consequences of this incident, there is a high probability that Xiyuan Group took the initiative to steal Hailufeng's technology. In this case, Xiyuan Group suffered heavy losses as a result, and others would only say:
He deserves to die.
Except for those South Koreans who have low self-esteem and arrogance, they will think that the Xiyuan Group is innocent.
Others either choose to be happy, fight for Hailufeng Company, or directly sneer at Xiyuan Group.
Of course, the Internet! There are always some weird and wonderful people who forget their ancestors and contribute to the human diversity of this world.
