Rebirth: Outstanding

The torrential rain outside, the raging thunderstorm.

The meeting room on the fifth floor of the Durex Hotel is completely unaffected by the rainstorm. Tang Wenbao sitting at the meeting table, Tang Jingyuan and his son, although their clothes are dry and luxurious, but the temperament of the two people at this time is even more embarrassed than the drenched chicken on the street. .

Gu Linshan played a beautiful Tiaohu Lishan yesterday afternoon. First, in the name of Tang Boqi, he arranged for Tang Wenbao to go to ten factories to meet with the factory owners, conveying the news that Tang Boqi had learned that Song Tianyao had received hair from mainland China at a high price, and announced that other factories would temporarily stop production and wait and see.

At the same time, Tang Jingyuan was asked to go to the Hong Kong subsidiary of Kemei International Trading Company, and the subsidiary was transferred to Tang Jingyuan's name.

If Tang Wenbao hadn't been diverted to other people's factories, and Tang Jingyuan had not had time to discuss with him, Tang Wenbao would have noticed the problem. Unfortunately, Tang Jingyuan was too unbearable. Although it usually seems to be a lot more stable than when he used to spend time and drink, it is a shopping mall. With a serious lack of experience, a company was placed in front of him, making him easily confused and falling into the abyss.

When Tang Jingyuan told Tang Wenbao that the Hong Kong subsidiary of Kemei International Trading Co., Ltd. was owned by him last night, Tang Wenbao immediately took Tang Jingyuan with him. Tang Jingxian's two sons rushed to Guanghua Hospital to see Tang Boqi, but they were all empty. Guanghua Hospital No one named Tang Boqi came to the hospital for examination at all.

And then, without even waiting until late at night, all the factory owners themselves were in the customs and the marine police's contacts have already heard news that the Indian Shahari was arrested because he was suspected of selling a batch of hair from mainland China.

These factory owners called Tang Wenbao one after another to ask if the raw materials currently being used in their factories would be affected. After all, Tang Wenbao had already told them that Song Tianyao had received news from mainland hair. These factory owners thought it was the Tang family. Collusion with the Indians, deliberately framed Song Tianyao.

But after Tang Wenbao got the news, his feet became weak. Song Tianyao's purchase of mainland hair was passed on to him by Tang Boqi. Now Tang Boqi has transferred the company to Tang Jingyuan. How could it be that Song Tianyao received mainland hair? It must be their factories. The raw material used is mainland hair! Tang Boqi was scammed by Indians, and then he smashed Tang Jingyuan without blinking, but he got away early!

It was not until this time that Tang Wenbao knew the pressure that those chamber of commerce bosses who were always calm and relaxed in the past had to bear behind others, and he was a small sesame business who had never experienced big storms before. Inability to cope with all this.

The former Kemei company was a dazzling golden mountain in the hands of Tang Boqi, but the current Kemei company is a hot potato in the hands of his father and son.

An anxious Tang Wenbao went to the United States and yelled at his elder brother Tang Shihu, who had no knowledge of him, but no matter how vicious he was, it would not help.

However, Tang Jingyuan imagined that the Customs and Trade Department visited and seized the Kemei company and did not happen.

The lawyer he hired told him that because for Hong Kong, hair from mainland China is not a contraband that needs to be deliberately embargoed. Only when the US Department of Commerce will suspend all the company's US orders and the US Channel Chamber of Commerce will be after the deadline for supply. Begin to pursue the breach of contract by the Kemei company, that is to say, Tang Wenbao and Tang Jingyuan will not be arrested and detained, and no one will restrict their personal freedom.

But for Tang Wenbao and Tang Jingyuan and his son, they are sitting in the meeting room of the Durex Hotel at the moment, but they are hopeful that someone will send them to prison, so as to avoid the questioning and angry eyes of everyone in the room at this time.

"Chairman Tang! The Indians used to be your nephew who contacted to help you supply goods. After the establishment of the association, you personally dealt with the Indians. Yesterday, I said that Song Tianyao would rush to the streets after receiving hair from the mainland. Now I receive it. Wind! It's our factories that only the raw materials at this time are really likely to be mainland products! What do you do as the president!" Huang Siqun's fat face was shaking, and his small eyes flashed with anxiety and anger at this time. Shouted at Tang Wenbao while patted the tabletop.

When the other factory owners saw someone speak first, they immediately attacked Tang Wenbao, who was full of numbness, with an angry expression!

Tang Jingyuan finally reacted a little bit, knowing that others should not be allowed to contradict his father, and barely squeezed out a bit of being a puny and slender, he patted the table hard, and yelled at everyone on the opposite side: "What! There is a problem with the hair, from the Tang family." There is no place in the factory! Now we are also victims! The Indians are to blame! My old bean forced you to buy Indian ingredients! One by one, why don't you jump out and think that you have made too much when you make money!"

"Ayuan, you talk about ghosts! Are you Lao Dou the president of the association? Did your cousin introduce the Indians to everyone in the first place? Now that something goes wrong, I want to get rid of the relationship?" Luo Jiabao stared. Chao Tang Jingyuan shot back.

"Now that the Director of the Industrial and Commercial Management Office has called everyone in, I think they must be prepared to wait for death together. Now it's good, the money is not earned, and even the capital is lost. It is time to beware of the Indians!"

"Tang Boqi didn't show up. The father and son pretended to be deaf and dumb. They knew that they should be on the same line with Song Tianyao. Now it's okay. Song Tianyao's wigs are sold to the British. Even if they use mainland hair, they will not be affected at all. , Our wigs are sold to Americans. If you really use hair from the mainland, you can sell it to the United States. Take care of some of us Chaozhou people a little bit."

The other factory owners also spoke separately, and the meeting room was noisy.

"Director Shi is here." As a waiter helped open the door of the meeting room, he reminded everyone inside, and the meeting room immediately became quiet.

Shi Zhiyi was dressed in a dark suit and walked in with the secretary from outside the door. Tang Wenbao was still the president of the association at this time. He cheered up and showed a smile towards Shi Zhiyi. He wanted to get up and walk up to shook hands with Shi Zhiyi: "Chief Shi..."

"Chairman Tang, everyone, please sit down." Shi Zhiyi waved his hand calmly before waiting for the other party to do anything, and sat straight on the main seat that had been vacant in the conference room.

After he sat down, he glanced around at the people present, nodded slightly, and said in fluent Chinese: "I think you all know what's going on now. Although the Hong Kong government has not issued an official document to you, you I should have learned some through their respective channels. Yes, Indian Shahari was taken to the Marine Police Headquarters yesterday. He has confessed that he has provided Hong Kong wig industry with a batch of up to 200,000 pieces from mainland China in order to obtain huge profits. Braids, and it has been confirmed that they are the raw materials that are being woven into wigs in your factories at this time."

As soon as he uttered these straightforward words, everyone in the meeting room whispered to each other again. Most of the factory owners stared at Tang Wenbao and Tang Jingyuan and his son with bad eyes. Before, everyone was just suspicion. Now Shi Zhiyi has brought positive news. , The raw materials that their ten factories are using now come from mainland China.

"Director Shi, that braid... We are also victims. If we know, we will definitely not use it." Tang Wenbao said eagerly.

Shi Zhiyi glanced at him, and barely twitched the corners of his mouth: "Mr. Tang, can you wait for me to finish?"

Tang Wenbao shut up again and lowered his head, Shi Zhiyi continued:

"Whether your factories are the victims, we will investigate further, but the first problem facing you is that the US orders from your factories have been suspended by the US Department of Commerce, which means that even if you have completed the order amount, you cannot sell the goods. Shipped to the U.S. and supplied to U.S. distributors, the U.S. government will not let your products land. The end result is that you are faced with forced default. U.S. distributors will pursue the breach of contract by Kemet International Trading Co., Ltd., and Kemet International Trading Co. The Hong Kong subsidiary’s breach of contract, the Hong Kong Kemei subsidiary will pursue the default of the factories, and everyone here, you may want to hold the Indian Shahari responsible, but please allow me to say that Shahari purchased this with a loan from HSBC. Approval of raw materials from mainland China. Before you file a lawsuit, the Xia family’s assets have been frozen by HSBC. The Xia family will complete bankruptcy before you can hold him accountable, sell all the properties to make up for the bank loans owed, and then be deprived of Hong Kong. Permanent residency status, expelled from Hong Kong and sent back to India, I think, after the Xia family returns to India, there should be no wealth to compensate for your losses."

"It is the Tang family who has been in contact with the Indians. Of course, the Tang family should be responsible for our losses. Tang Wenbao is the chairman of the association, and the Kemei company is also his family's business. The Tang family makes enough money..." Huang Siqun said halfway. I couldn't say any further, only staring at Tang Wenbao with bloodshot eyes.

He is no better than Luo Jiabao's concubine from a big family. He has enough money in his family, even if he loses hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, he can still pay. He Huang Siqun can have this day, he can use a bowl of wonton noodles. Yes, four sets of wig machinery and equipment cost nearly 400,000. Adding in the costs of venue, labor, water and electricity, and raw materials, the initial investment has already been 600,000 Hong Kong dollars. To him, 600,000 is already his seven. The savings accumulated over decades of selling wonton noodles at the store seemed to earn 300,000 yuan in the first month, but after putting aside various expenses, the profit barely exceeded 100,000. If the factory had no orders at this time, he would lose money. Five hundred thousand, let alone face the situation of paying liquidated damages for breach of contract.

Half a million Hong Kong dollars is enough for him to buy three or four prosperous shops to open branches. If he can't get back the capital, Huang Siqun feels that he doesn't need to force the other party to breach the contract, and he just hangs himself!

"Calm down, Mr. Huang." Shi Zhiyi reminded him from the secretary beside him, knowing the fat man's surname is Huang, so he said: "I, and the Hong Kong government, are working hard for everyone to avoid being held accountable for breach of contract. Let us One by one to solve the current problems, first of all, we must now have enough to supply ten factories, and can prove the source of legal raw materials, to ensure that you can complete the order production as soon as possible before the deadline for supply, everyone except for Indian Shaha Suppliers outside of profit?"

All the factory owners present bowed their heads. They only focused on production. Before Song Tianyao used the ingredients of the Indian Xia family and introduced it to the Tang family, and the Tang family introduced it to various factories. Before this incident, everyone on the scene had no idea. After the fact that Indians would use raw materials from mainland China, they did not want to find other suppliers in the past. Moreover, there is an association for this kind of thing. Naturally, the chairman of the association, Tang Wenbao, should consider it.

"Secondly, all of you here are the presidents, vice presidents and directors of the industry associations. Then you prepare the materials you need, go to the U.S. Consulate in Hong Kong, and explain the entire wig industry association to the embargo prosecutor and the deputy consul. How to deal with this matter?"

There is silence below. If these guild leaders, vice-chairmen, and directors are really capable, they won’t be so passive in the whole thing.

"Very good. This is an association for a new industry. It's terrible. Third, in addition to the issue of the US Consulate in Hong Kong, if you want to resume orders, you also need the head of the industry association to go to the US Department of Commerce to participate in the US business. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs accepts questions at the hearing on Hong Kong wigs flowing into the US market. Are you ready to explain to the officials of the Department of Commerce in the US? And how can the US distributors stop worrying about product problems?” Shi Zhiyi asked the third question.

There was still silence.

"Nothing, guys, can you tell me the significance of the existence of this association? After the incident, you did not even have the most basic remedial measures plan, just waiting for the Hong Kong government to deal with your aftermath? Although I did come for this. , I have also arranged remedial measures, but seeing your performance, I am still very disappointed. Instead of saving you who are incapable and at a loss, it is better to wait for all the factories to default and go bankrupt, and let people who really know what international business does. This kind of business is good." Shi Zhiyi said to everyone in the conference room with a gloomy face.

This time, everyone raised their heads and looked at Shi Zhiyi. If Shi Zhiyi humiliated them, they could ignore it, except that he had remedial measures to make everyone's eyes shine with hope, right! It is easier for the British to greet the United States than for the Chinese who have never left Hong Kong and do not speak English. The United Kingdom and the United States are still allies.

"Director Shi, it really helps..." Tang Wenbao stood up excitedly. Before expressing his excitement and gratitude, Shi Zhiyi spoke again: "Chairman Tang, I'm sorry, the remedy I said is Regarding ten factories, not the Tang family’s Kemei company, with all due respect, your company is about to pay US distributors up to millions of liquidated damages. Now it has entered the countdown to bankruptcy. I can’t do anything about it. I want to be the president of an industry association again, hoping to learn a lesson."

Before Shi Zhiyi's words were finished, Tang Wenbao collapsed on his seat. Shi Zhiyi didn't seem to see it, and continued to speak:

"Now, let me introduce the executor of the remedial measures for this commercial accident, the owner of Hong Kong Xianrong Trading Company, Ms. Angie Peris, the last hope of everyone here."

Only after Shi Zhiyi finished speaking, a cold male voice rang outside the door:

"I said that last time anyone raised his hand and wanted to chase me off, this time, let him slap himself severely with that hand."
