Fang Zhe was not surprised by Lin Ming's words.

With Lin Ming's energy, he could easily find out about these things.

What's the situation now?

You can use your toes to imagine how prosperous those heavy metal material suppliers are!

"If my guess is correct, according to the normal process, you have already received the order, right? And there are more than one. I am afraid that the production matters in the next two or three years have been planned." Lin Ming added.

"So what?" Fang Zhe snorted coldly.

"How's it going? Don't you think your question is a bit retarded? What do you think it will be like?"

Lin Ming smiled faintly: "A war between great powers will not end so easily, not to mention that there are many other countries that are obstructing it."

"As long as the war does not end, the prices of heavy metal materials will not fall, and there is a high probability that they will continue to rise!"

"I don't need to say more about what's going on now, but I want to remind you that if a new war breaks out, then the market for these heavy metal materials will inevitably be in short supply!"

"No one would choose to sell materials at this time. Everyone sees the bright future of heavy metals, and many big players in other industries are getting involved, wanting to get a share of the heavy metal pie!"

"Based on these, do you think you can buy the materials? Do you think your orders can be delivered as scheduled? If you can't deliver, do you think you can afford to pay the liquidated damages at that price? Do you think the headquarters of Xingchen Shipyard will be willing to take it?

Pay such liquidated damages?"

Fang Zhe gritted his teeth: "If there is really no other way, I have to take it even if I don't take it!"

"Manager Fang, don't say such harsh words to me. It has nothing to do with me."

Lin Ming said disdainfully: "You'd better think about it. If Xingchen Shipbuilding really pays so much liquidated damages, can you still be the general manager? Can you still stay in the shipbuilding industry?!"

ωωw..net

Fang Zhe fell silent.

The frustration in his heart was like a wave, and he had the urge to explode.

Reason told him that everything Lin Ming said was possible!

And the reason why he was so anxious was precisely because he had considered these consequences.

For companies like shipyards, if they cannot keep up with one order, they will be unable to keep up with the next one, creating a chain effect.

As far as the orders he has received so far.

If all liquidated damages are paid, the total amount will exceed 1 billion!

This is even higher than the profit of these orders in his hand!

This is just a loss of money.

Failure to deliver orders in time means that the shipyard does not have the corresponding production capacity, and may even cause fraud, causing Xingchen Shipyard's stock price to plummet!

For Xingchen Shipbuilding, which has a market value of over one trillion, if the stock price drops even a little, it will start to reach tens of billions.

After all this series of losses, Fang Zhe couldn't stay in the shipbuilding industry.

If the board of directors of Xingchen Group becomes angry, he may still be imprisoned!

Think of these.

A strong feeling of powerlessness could not help but arise in Fang Zhe's heart.

He felt that he was really at his wits end.

"The key is that you are not helpless now!"

At this moment, Lin Ming's voice sounded again.

"The current situation is not caused by you. The headquarters of Xingchen Group must understand this."

Lin Ming said: "As long as you are a normal businessman and have the mind of a normal businessman, you will definitely spend money to buy lessons now and prevent all hidden dangers that may continue to increase losses in the future!"

"So, I think Xingchen Group would rather not make a profit or even lose money, but will definitely make these first batch of ships delivered as scheduled, because only in this way can the stock price of Xingchen Group be stabilized!"

Fang Zhe took a deep breath: "You are indeed right. The headquarters is willing to spend a lot of money to purchase materials, but the money from the headquarters is not scraped. The board of directors has a certain limit of tolerance!"

Hearing this, Lin Ming's eyes flashed.

If Fang Zhe can say this, it proves that he has compromised!

I was just worried that my lion would speak loudly, so I moved the board of directors out.

As for Lin Ming, the so-called board of directors of Xingchen Group has nothing to do with him!

As long as Fang Zhe can compromise, then the matter will be half successful!

He is not afraid that Fang Zhe will spend less money, but he is afraid that this fool is really mentally retarded and will not buy it unless he insists on it!

Obviously, Fang Zhe is still smart.

"In this case, let's find a time to meet and discuss the price?" Lin Ming asked.

"I'm too lazy to meet you. I don't want to see your face. Just tell me your ideal price on the phone. I will report it to the headquarters and let you know when there is news from the headquarters." Fang Zhe snorted coldly.

"You don't want to see me, but I don't see you for a day, like three autumns!"

Lin Ming didn't care: "For such a large order, it's too perfunctory to place it on the phone. Besides, we still have to sign the contract after all. I also need to know how big your appetite is and how much you can swallow, right?"

Fang Zhe pondered slightly.

"Then I'll meet you at the coffee shop on the first floor of Dexin Building on the morning of the 27th!"

"Okay, see you soon..."

Before Lin Ming could finish speaking, Fang Zhe hung up the phone.

"Look, who are these people? I am helping him now, but he doesn't even have the most basic respect for me. He is really uneducated!" Lin Ming muttered.

"But why do I feel that you seem to be very happy?" Chen Jia looked at Lin Ming.

"I must be happy because I have to make money again after all!"

Lin Ming waved his hand with great pride.

"Tell me, my dear wife, where will you have breakfast tomorrow? I'll treat you, don't be afraid of spending money!"

"Get out!"

…

April 27th.

Eight o'clock in the morning.

A piece of breaking news swept through all the major channels.

"According to foreign media reports, the infection rate of the Orr virus has surged recently, and the number of infected patients has increased by about 20 times compared to yesterday!"

"Currently, the total number of infections worldwide has exceeded 100 million, and the number of infections in a single day is about to exceed 10 million, setting a new infection record."

"The WHO issued a notice overnight, hoping that major countries can effectively isolate and treat infected people."

"On April 26, five cases of Orr virus appeared in Linjiang City, China. The patients were Linjiang Xingang workers. According to investigation, they were all imported infections from abroad."

"Fighting against the disease is urgent and everyone is responsible!"

"The Chinese Medical and Health Association also calls on the Chinese people, as well as overseas Chinese, to minimize the number of entries and exits, respond to the country's call, and not create health risks for themselves and their families!"

Even now, the whole world is already familiar with the Orr virus.

But when this news was released, it was like a big stone falling into the lake, causing thousands of waves!

Anyone can imagine that the real outbreak period of the Orr virus is coming!

The number of tens of millions per day will continue to grow, and even the airtight mainland of China has infected people!
