"No, Mr. Ye. If you are threatened, just blink. Didn't you say that the other party wants to negotiate for peace?
Are you negotiating for peace?
You are surrendering!"
Xu Hong was a little anxious, "We have been working hard for so long, and the market we finally won has just been given away?"
"What's the point of giving in? This is to avoid the edge!"
"You are such a coward!"
"How do you talk, kid?
Go ask the finance department how much money do we have left now?
If Jianlibao is determined to start a price war with us, can we withstand it?
The purpose of doing this now is just to stabilize the opponent."
"They now need time to withdraw funds, and we also need time to develop and grow. They talk about negotiating a peace, but in fact everyone in Xiao Jiujiu knows what they are thinking."
Ye Chen said, opening the car window, and the hot air from outside rushed into the car: "They want to collect funds and annihilate us in one fell swoop. We want to develop and grow to completely compete with him. We all want to kill each other, and we also need time.
, so it is reasonable and reasonable to do so.”
When Xu Hong heard this, he felt that Ye Chen was really crazy.
Let’s not talk about whether Li Jingwei will abide by the agreement. Even if he abides by the agreement, after three months, people will withdraw the funds and start a price war. Can the early morning food be able to withstand it?
Obviously can't bear it!
We can’t say that after three months, morning food will be as big as Jianlibao, right?
Is that business?
That's magic!
"Don't think about it, just do it. After three months, it's not certain who will win!"
Ye Chen looked at the frightened Xu Hong and comforted him.
…
After arriving at the company, Ye Chen wanted to sleep on the sofa for a while. At this time, Xu Hong walked in. Seeing Ye Chen who was about to take a rest, he immediately asked: "Mr. Ye, is the financial meeting still going on in ten minutes?"
"Oh, come on, I almost forgot, go get ready first, I'll be there later."
Ye Chen said and immediately stood up.
"Mr. Ye, why don't you take a rest for a while? We can have a meeting in the afternoon."
"I don't have anything special to do, so there's no need to postpone it."
The Jianlibao matter has come to an end in a short period of time. This meeting is a detailed assessment of the entire company's situation. Only by understanding this can we make the next plan.
At the meeting, more than 20 people sat at the desk. The leader was naturally Ye Chen, and next to him was Li Quanlin.
Li Quanlin's face was full of fatigue, obviously he was overworked.
However, he had no choice. He had not worked for many years and had forgotten much of the knowledge he had learned before. He could only learn and do at the same time.
He could still cope with the work when the company was small before, but as the company grew larger and its financial situation became more complicated, he was no longer able to do what he wanted.
Especially Ye Chen's high-debt operation model, as a financial person, he was frightened when he saw it, and he tried his best to reduce the company's debt.
"Let's talk about it. During this period, we have been playing similar games to Jianlibao. Let's talk about our financial situation during this period."
Ye Chen said with a smile.
"Mr. Ye, let me first report to you our various expenditures in the past two months, especially the construction of the branch factory..."
"wait wait wait!"
Ye Chen quickly stopped, "You don't need to tell me the details, I can't care about them. Otherwise, what else would you do? You only need to tell me the current overall situation of the company and the unilateral profits brought by Red Bull during this period."
"Our expenses during this period are actually not much. Our marketing methods are through newspapers and local TV stations. The price is not high. The main expenses are employee wages and the construction of branch factories."
Li Quanlin rubbed his eyes surrounded by dark circles and said: "In terms of product profitability, in the past five months, the total profit of all our products has reached 43 million, including 15 million in beverages and 2 million in food.
Eighteen million, I took out Red Bull's data separately and calculated it. In a total of three weeks, Red Bull created sales of seven million."
"Now we still have 30 million left on hand, but the current liabilities plus future estimated liabilities are as high as 57 million!"
“To be honest, this debt is beyond our ability to bear, but why do we still have 30 million in cash?
That's because I transferred part of the liability to the raw material dealers, and now they are holding IOUs and the cash is with us."
Ye Chen, who had been silent all the time, nodded when he heard the last sentence: "This method is good. We are all a family. We can't bear all the risks!"
Li Quanlin suddenly rolled his eyes. He just said so many shocking data, and you just heard the last sentence, right?
"Mr. Ye, this is not a long-term solution. Our debt is too high and we need to find ways to lower it."
"Why are you lowering yourself? You all owe money anyway. If you owe less, you will be a bad guy. If you owe more, you will be grandpa. Do you understand?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately laughed.
"The Red Bull drink is very successful so far. If it keeps up, the sales in the next month may even exceed 10 million. With Jianlibao's popularity in China, we can bite such a big piece from its mouth.
The meat is still very impressive.”
Ye Chen said.
"For the next time, just keep it together. Except for basketball games, all other marketing should be withdrawn."
When Li Quanlin heard this, he thought that Ye Chen wanted to seek stability. He immediately became excited and looked at Ye Cong with an expectant look on his face and said: "Mr. Ye, that's what I mean. Although we have high debts now, if we are very profitable,
As long as we stabilize the market, it will take at most one year to turn from debt to profit, and then you can do whatever you want!"
"No, no, no, that's not what I mean. What I mean is that you can temporarily seek stability on Red Bull, but you can't relax on other foods and drinks."
"The debt problem is not a problem. The most important thing now is that the cash on hand is really not enough. You have to find a way to get some money for me."
When Li Quanlin heard this, his face wrinkled like a dumpling: "Mr. Ye, the only thing that can be cut now is the salary of employees. Our average salary is more than three times that of the same industry, especially for the management.
The shares and year-end bonus are six to seven times those in the same industry!"
"Even if each person contributes 100 yuan a year, the remaining salary is much higher than that of his peers."
When the people present heard this, their faces suddenly turned ugly, but it was hard to say. After all, what Li Quanlin said was the truth. Their wages were too high!
Now that the company is short of money and wants to reduce financial expenses, employee wages are the simplest, most direct and risk-free way to do so.
However, when Ye Chen heard this, he shook his head: "How can this be done? The debt is high now. That's why the president of the bank and several people from the city government scolded me. If you cut off the employees' wages, it will be thousands of dollars."
Thousands of people pointed their fingers at me and cursed me, this won’t work!”
