Chapter 143 Qin Tao picks fruits

"Old man, you have to think carefully. Their steel plant has a shortfall of seven to eight million. If we take over, we will also have tight cash flow problems." Qin Tao said, "Maybe our factory will also be affected. Implicated, even defeated.”

This time it was Qin Baoshan's turn to frown.

The steel plant is no longer a hot commodity. The steel plant is about to incur millions in debt. At this critical moment, who will take action?

Of course it’s Qin Tao, a selfless father. This is his consistent principle of doing things!

"Currently, we are renovating the floating dock on Chongming Island, which requires a large investment. I have just discussed the acquisition with Huating No. 2 Water Pump Factory. Transforming their production line will also require a huge investment." Qin Tao continued: "It would be bad if we didn't become fat and choke to death after one bite!"

 Qin Baoshan hesitated there.

“Director Qin, you are the only one who can save our Mingzhou Steel Plant. Please lend a helping hand!” Liu Mingxi said as he left his chair and knelt down to Qin Baoshan with a pop.

Qin Tao was also shocked. It doesn’t have to be so realistic, right? You should be awarded an Oscar statuette!

"Xizi, get up, what are you doing?" Qin Baoshan quickly pulled him up: "I have a very good relationship with Gangzi. Now, how can I watch your steel plant collapse? Since the leader has spoken, then I, Qin Baoshan has nothing to say, I will definitely..."

“Old man, stop it!” Qin Tao quickly answered what his father was going to say next: “We are powerless now, are you sure you want to do this?”

“You little bastard, are we still going to die and watch the steel plant collapse? No one is willing to shoulder this responsibility, but I am!”

"In this case, while all the leaders are present, let's make everything clear with gongs and drums face to face." Qin Tao said: "Old man, sit down first, and I will report the operating status of our factory to the leaders."

 The relationship between father and son is very strange. The leaders are worried and are not in the mood to make fun of them. Leader Zhang nodded: "Qin Tao, please tell me."

“Currently, our factory’s account has a balance of more than 20 million yuan.”

Everyone was surprised for a while, knowing that their shipyard had made a fortune, but they didn't know that their shipyard was actually so rich, more than 20 million!

"Currently, we plan to convert an oil tanker into a floating dock. This will cost about five million." Qin Tao began to talk: "We also plan to acquire a water pump factory and transform it into a waterjet propeller specifically for the navy. For manufacturers, this project will probably cost around 10 million, which means our factory still has several million left.”

The leaders began to frown.

“Now, if the mess of Mingzhou Steel Plant is forced on us, we will need a loan of five million from the bank.” Qin Tao said: “I hope the leaders can coordinate with the bank.”

“Well, as long as you are willing to take over the steel plant, we can coordinate, but...”

Before leader Zhang finished speaking, Qin Tao continued to speak: "We are shipbuilders, not steelmakers. Although we have overlap, we are not professional, so if we mess up, leaders, please don't complain."

Leader Zhang originally wanted to say, but you have to promise me to do a good job in the factory. Who would have thought that Qin Tao actually said it in advance. If it doesn't work, don't blame us.

At this time, the conference room became quiet again.

"For our shipyard, this is a burden. It was given to our shipyard by our leaders." Qin Tao said: "For us, it doesn't matter even if the steel plant collapses. There are also steel plants in neighboring counties. We We can also cooperate with neighboring counties..."

"Little bastard, why don't you have the slightest sense of responsibility?" Qin Baoshan was dissatisfied: "Can the steel factory in the neighboring county pay taxes to Mingzhou City? If the steel factory collapses, the city's public officials will have to pay bonuses. Get chopped off! You are obviously just standing and talking without backache."

 Qin Tao secretly smiled in his heart. This old man must use the right method. What he is saying now is a divine assist.

As expected, the faces of the leaders present were all ugly. Leader Zhang coughed and then said: "Old Qin, you have to work hard. If you work well, it belongs to you. If you work badly, the city will take care of you."

 There is always something to be said for the occasion. Now in this kind of formal meeting, since Leader Zhang has spoken, it is considered to have set the tone.

“Then our shipyard reluctantly took over.” Qin Tao said.

"Qin Tao, we all know your abilities. As long as you get a few more ships to be scrapped from Lao Maozi and receive orders for a few missile boats from the Navy, won't the money come in a hurry?" Another leader said.

“Yes, Qin Tao is the youngest and most promising. In this era, young people belong to you, they are capable and enterprising.”

Hmph, didn’t you praise Tao Yongfeng so much just now? Why are you praising me again now? At this time, Qin Tao really wanted to settle old scores, but considering that they were all leaders, he gave up.

 The meeting is finally over and important content has been reached.

 Mingzhou Steel Plant has become a subsidiary company of Mingzhou Shipyard. Mingzhou Shipyard is responsible for all matters of the steel plant, including assets, production, development, etc. As for the top leader of the steel plant, it will also be appointed by Mingzhou Shipyard.

 Qin Baoshan knew that he did not have this ability, so he decided on the spot to send Qin Tao as the factory director.

Since they are all in Mingzhou City, Qin Tao can run back and forth. As for the shipyard, Qin Tao is often absent, and work continues as normal.

After the meeting, Qin Tao drove Santana and originally planned to leave with his father. When he saw Liu Mingxi walking slowly behind, Qin Tao said hello: "Uncle Liu, come and get in my car. !”

 Liu Ming happily got into the back seat of Santana.

The car started and left the government compound. The expression on Liu Mingxi's face became serious: "There is something wrong with that Tao Yongfeng, and our Factory Director Liu was probably harmed by them!"

Qin Baoshan's expression also changed instantly. During the meeting, he felt a little strange and always sensed something was going on. But now, Liu Mingxi's words immediately woke him up.

“Taozi, turn around, let’s go to the Public Security Bureau to report the case!” Qin Baoshan said.

Qin Tao continued to drive slowly and methodically, glanced at the rearview mirror habitually, and then said: "Old man, as a factory director, and now the director of a large enterprise that has merged with a steel plant, can you be mature? point?"

 “Little bastard…” Qin Baoshan was annoyed.

"Director Qin, please calm down. At present, we are just suspicious and there is no evidence. Even if we report the case, they will not file a case." Liu Mingxi on the side said: "You need to calm down."

Qin Baoshan nodded: "Yes, Gangzi is gone like this, and we can't do anything!"

 Qin Baoshan was very emotional.

"Old man, you have lived to be..." Qin Tao stopped quickly. He could not ridicule the old man too much, otherwise he would really fall out: "We at least already know that the Tao family is the most suspicious. Then, we only need to investigate secretly. ”

“Secret investigation? Do you think we are the police?” Qin Baoshan asked.

“Police? Haha, let’s go directly to the navy for help.” Qin Tao said.

 Having the support of my father-in-law, of course I have to use it.

“Navy, why do people want to help us?”

"The drunkard is not interested in drinking. What if these people are coveting our shipyard? We are a factory that builds warships for the navy!" Qin Tao said: "These people are very greedy. What they do in the steel factory If you don’t succeed, you may have a bigger appetite.”

“Uncle Liu, we have to do the next thing quickly.” Qin Tao continued to greet Liu Mingxi.

 “Little bastard, what are you going to do next?”

 “Old man, do you really want to know?”

 “Nonsense, say it quickly, or I’ll fire you!”

“The project expenditures for the Mingzhou Steel Plant mentioned today are actually just a plan, and the formal contract has not yet been signed.”

"What?"

 Qin Baoshan was extremely shocked.

What scares Tao Yongfeng away is the huge amount of money these projects will cost, which will put a heavy burden on the factory. Moreover, the factory has little oil and water left.

If there are still several million in the account, then Tao Yongfeng will definitely take office happily, and then use various means to turn the money in the factory into his own money. As for whether the factory collapses or not, it will not belong to him. Take care.

But now, when you take office, you have to bear millions of debts, and selling the factory will not be enough to fill the hole. Only a fool will take over.

Since Qin Tao talked to Liu Minggang last time, Liu Minggang has been very active. He is indeed contacting various suppliers and banks for loans. However, after all, he has not taken action yet. He has to discuss it with Qin Tao.

However, outsiders don’t know, not even Deputy Director Tang, that the people responsible for this matter are Liu Minggang and Liu Mingxi.

Last night, when Qin Tao went to Liu Mingxi and told him his judgment and analysis, Liu Mingxi immediately agreed. Even if what he said at the meeting today might let him in, he didn't care.

Furthermore, when the name Tao Yongfeng popped up, Liu Mingxi had already judged that it was probably the Tao family who was up to something.

“Old man, you already know, so do you plan to go back and report to the leader to explain that the Zhouzhou Steel Plant can still be saved and let Tao Yongfeng continue to be the director?”

“Fart, little bastard, you’re not that stupid yet, don’t worry, I’ll take care of this for you,” Qin Baoshan said.

"In that case, old man, I have another plan." Qin Tao said, "I need your cooperation."

"explain."

 “I’m going to ruin the factory.”

 “Fart, you’re going to ruin the factory, I won’t spare you!”

 …

 Mingzhou Transportation Company.

　　咣!

The door of the office was pushed open. Tao Honghong raised her head and looked at her son: "Yongfeng, what happened? Why are you like this?"

"Mom, you asked me to come back and take over the steel factory. I thought it was a hot potato, but it turned out to be a mess! Their factory owes millions in debt!" Tao Yongfeng said angrily.

"How is that possible? They should have a surplus of several million!" Tao Honghong stood up.

"Huh, they can make money and even spend money. They have ordered a large number of machinery and equipment, and they have to import it from abroad. Even if the contract is terminated, the compensation will be astronomical." Tao Yongfeng said: "If I go, not only will I not be able to I can't transfer the money from the steel factory to fill the holes in our company, and I still have to bear a lot of debt. If the factory collapses, I still have to be scolded!"

"Keep your voice down!" Tao Honghong's expression changed, and she quickly walked to the door of the office, looked at the corridor outside, and then closed the door.

 “Tell me, what’s going on?”

 After listening to Tao Yongfeng's narration, Tao Honghong's eyes rolled: "Why do I feel that this thing is a little weird?"

 She thought for a moment, then picked up the phone and dialed a number.

“Hey, Leader Zhang, I want to know how the matter at the Mingzhou Steel Plant was handled in the end?”

Tao Honghong had a smile on her face and kept echoing the words inside. When she put down the phone, her face was full of unwillingness.

“There must be something wrong inside. The steel plant was eventually merged by the shipyard and became a subsidiary of the shipyard.” Tao Honghong said: “We paved the way and finally gave others an advantage.”

“What should I do? How about I express my determination again and ask for the position of director of the steel plant?”

"What you want has already been decided. How can you change it again?" Tao Honghong looked at her son: "You really don't have the slightest courage. If I had known, I would have gone with you."

She originally thought that everything had been settled and that her son was just going through the motions. However, unexpectedly, her son became timid. If she wanted to follow her, she would give others the feeling that her son would never grow up.

The chess move was one move away, and in the end, someone else got an advantage!

Thinking of this, Tao Honghong clenched her fists in annoyance.

“Mom, what should we do? We can’t let their shipyard pick the fruit!” Tao Yongfeng also looked unwilling.

Tao Honghong shook her head: "Huh, we are the only ones who pick the fruits of others. When will it be others' turn to pick the fruits! Hasn't their shipyard already annexed the steel plant? Then we just need to find a way to get them out, and we will be the shipbuilders. Just the director of the factory will do!"

Tao Yongfeng's eyes lit up: "Yeah, being the head of a shipyard would be really fun! Do we need to ask Uncle Jiu to crash them to death? Just crash their Santana directly and set it on fire..."

 “Keep your voice down!” Tao Honghong scolded her son in a low voice.

Tao Yongfeng stopped talking.

"Once it was an accident, if it happens one after another, people will be suspicious." Tao Honghong said: "We can't be exposed anymore. This time, let's write a report letter!"

 Report letter?

 Tao Yongfeng was a little puzzled.

"During the Chinese New Year, their factory gave out large bonuses. That Qin Tao even gave himself a bonus of 20,000 yuan. This is clearly embezzlement of public funds." Tao Honghong said: "Their shipyard is collective. It is different from our transportation company contracting to individuals. If you embezzle 20,000 yuan, it will take three or four years!"
