In a society governed by human relationships, when it comes to money, discounts are inevitable.
Chen Jiaming should know this truth. The significance of using Li Changzhi as a pawn was suddenly a bit inscrutable.
Gu Nuan didn’t rule out the possibility that he was attempting to demonstrate his extraordinary ability to turn decay into magic.
But now, the problem lay before him, and his tactic had not worked. Li Changzhi not only hadn’t helped him but had led him into a trap, a snare.
With the deadlock in front of him, perhaps the usually successful Chen Jiaming had never encountered such a variable and abruptly found himself in a thorny situation.
The other party had proposed to deal with the matter officially, so the only option was to submit the prepared contingency plan for their review.
As expected, when they submitted Plan A, President Zhuang merely skimmed through it briefly and, placing the folder down, said, "Isn’t the restructuring plan you’ve proposed just the same old thing in a new wrapper?"
It should be said that the Plan A they had discussed before was a conservative approach. It was an acceleration of the project’s progress and other similar suggestions on the original plan, without any significant changes to the original proposal. This was because Mingyue’s construction project was already half completed, with the main structures already topped out.
In such a situation, how to change became a difficult challenge of replanning and redesigning.
Nobody believed that Mingyue, being at this stage, could be successfully modified.
The bank itself was certainly aware of this, hence their sudden halt on loans and demand for Changda to repay the debt quickly.
The project was nearly completed, but the merchandising issue was still unresolved. The bank was equally worried that the project would become an unfinished building or that, once completed, the income wouldn’t cover the expenditures, leading to Changda dragging its feet on repayment. Thus, it simply stopped lending the money.
Hearing President Zhuang utter this phrase, which seemed like a death sentence for Mingyue, everyone from Changda present inevitably tensed to the extreme.
Even Li Changzhi thought, it’s over, completely over.
If this were to end now, her job would undoubtedly be at risk after she left.
Who exactly had caused such a blunder for her, clearly pushing her and Chen Jiaming into jumping into a pit of doom together?
Chen Jiaming suddenly coughed lightly and said, "In fact, we ourselves find this proposal unsatisfactory." The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢•𝕟𝕖𝕥
President Zhuang seemed somewhat surprised by his sudden admission and asked, "If that’s the case, does Director Chen mean—"
"We first submitted a relatively conservative proposal, merely to probe your bank’s intentions, to see if your bank actually has any desire to let us, Changda, carry on and restructure the Mingyue project—"
"Is that even a question?" President Zhuang couldn’t help but let out a sarcastic laugh. "Director Chen, business is always . I’ve already said, our bank can afford to see our depositors’ money go down the drain. If there’s profit to be made, if there’s interest to be gained, and if it’s good for the depositors, why would our bank make things difficult for Changda?"
"Good, with President Zhuang’s word, we can rest assured." Chen Jiaming then signaled for Fu Yubo to bring out the second proposal.
When Fu Yubo took out the second folder, his fingers were visibly trembling. After many years of traveling for work, he had been in numerous business negotiations, but such a tense situation where everything hung by a thread was a first for him.
Without the proposal that Gu Nuan had prepared beforehand, he didn’t even dare to think about the outcome of their trip.
After steadying his nerves, he passed the documents over.
President Zhuang looked at the two of them, his hesitation noticeable. He clearly doubted they could produce any tricks at this point. After all, Mingyue had become what it was - who could subdue that gang of ruffian citizens?
