Reborn in the red age

After these words were spoken, Li Qingfeng and Academician Wu were both stunned. They didn't expect that He Guangqin, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would come up with such a bad idea.

After a moment's silence, for some reason, Qingfeng Li suddenly thought of a famous saying of Chu Yunfei.

He looked at He Guangqin strangely and blurted out: "You always come up with something new for me."

After a brief thought, although this bad idea is a bit shameless, it seems to be completely in line with the signed treaty.

The contract only states how many people the loan is to and how many people the loan is to, but it does not state that the loan must be returned by the original owner.

I can just lend you ten people and return you ten people, why do you care whether they are the original people or not?

At worst, we will pay for the salary and social security of the people who are sent back, and they will not take up the benefits of their original unit. You can just apply for a new secondment procedure. If that doesn't work, you can donate some money to the original unit.

The idea has been put forward, but now it's up to someone to do it and bear the bad reputation.

When Li Qingfeng's eyes fell on Academician Wu, Academician Wu, who had just had an expression of "I'll take the blame", immediately shifted his gaze.

He pretended to observe the surrounding environment, muttering: "This place is a bit empty, but it is suitable for growing some flowers and plants. I will have someone build a small flower bed here someday."

It turns out that his unconcerned attitude towards reputation just now was all a trick to force me to submit.

After a moment's silence, Qingfeng Li finally turned his gaze to He Guangqin who proposed the idea.

Academician Wu at the side also followed Li Qingfeng's gaze and looked at He Guangqin who had a confused look on his face.

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, He Guangqin was dumbfounded. I just gave advice, I can't do anything about it.

He Guangqin opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief, and waved his hands anxiously, wanting to say something.

Without waiting for He Guangqin to speak, Li Qingfeng stepped forward and patted He Guangqin on the shoulder, encouraging him: "Guangqin, since you came up with this idea, you should be responsible for its execution. I believe you have the ability to do this well. Come on, I have confidence in you."

Academician Wu also chimed in: "Xiao He, just accept this. Although it may seem difficult, it is not impossible to deal with it as long as the method is appropriate. If you encounter any difficulties during the implementation process, we will definitely help you find a solution. Moreover, if this matter is handled well, it will be a great achievement."

Listening to the two of them arguing with each other and blocking all his escape routes, He Guangqin wanted to slap himself in the face. What advice do you have?
This is good. I have put myself in trouble.

Facing the gazes of the two people, what could He Guangqin say? He sighed helplessly and could only take the blame.

Now that he had someone to take the blame for him, Qingfeng Li felt relieved.

Although those research institutes would certainly not believe that the decision was made by secretary He Guangqin and would still blame me, I could completely put the blame on He Guangqing.

After all, it was he who came up with the idea and executed it. What does it have to do with me? I have no idea about it.

By the way, we must quickly promote He Guangqin and let him concurrently serve as the deputy general manager of Ziyun Equipment. This way, it will be more reasonable to pass on the blame when the time comes.

The matter was resolved perfectly. Li Qingfeng got into the car in a good mood and left Ziyun Equipment, returning to Huaxin Building where he had not been for a long time.

"Teacher, you are back. I am sorry that you were frightened during this trip to the south."

As soon as Li Qingfeng returned to the office, his student Yi Xuexi walked in with a smile on his face.

As soon as he came in, he did nothing else but asked about my health, and then served me tea and water, making it obvious that he wanted to ask for something.

"Okay, okay, tell me what you want to say. My office is cleaned every day, so I don't need you to clean my desk."

When Yi Xuexi was about to use his clothes to wipe the table for Li Qingfeng, Li Qingfeng quickly interrupted him and told him to just say what he wanted to say and not to use such tricks.

"A teacher is a teacher. I can't hide anything from you. I came to see you because I really have something to do."

Stopping his attentiveness, Yi Xuexue smiled awkwardly, flattered him a little, and then got down to business: "It's like this, our satellite company is out of money, and now we can't even pay salaries, can you support us?"

"Well, what's going on? Why is there no money? There are only a few people in your company." Li Qingfeng was stunned when he heard Yi Xuexue's words.

You should know that Yixuexi's satellite company is just an intermediary company. It first takes orders from Lemon Company, and then places orders with Aerospace Industry Company. It is a no-cost business, and the profit is the difference in price.

The first order after the company was founded was to launch an international communications satellite. The Aerospace Industry Corporation quoted the satellite company 5 million yuan. According to normal business procedures, the satellite company quoted the Lemon Company million yuan, which resulted in a profit of million yuan.

It's only been a short time. There are only a few people in the entire company and no other business. Even if each person is paid 10 yuan a month and has full benefits such as five insurances and one fund, it is impossible to spend all the million in such a short time.

Speaking of this, Yi Xuexi almost cried, and said with a look of grief and indignation: "The Aerospace Industry Company is shameless and a rogue."

Ok?
Li Qingfeng was stunned and immediately asked what was going on.

Damn it, I was just about to act like a rogue and before I even started, someone already acted like a rogue on me?
As Yi Xuexue's angry voice rang out, Li Qingfeng also understood why the satellite company had spent all the 50 million in profits so quickly, and had reached the point where they could hardly pay the salaries.

It turned out that the problem was with the Aerospace Industry Company. This company had no sense of contract. The originally agreed launch price of 500 million was suddenly unilaterally increased when the satellite entered the later stage of launch preparations.

The reason is that the price of raw materials has risen, labor costs have increased, and the difficulty of this launch mission was underestimated. An additional 100 million yuan in expenses is required, otherwise the launch will be delayed.

How could Yi Xuexue allow them to raise the price at will? After a heated argument with them, he rejected their request for price increase on the spot.

Although their request for price increase was rejected, the matter was not over yet. The Aerospace Industry Corporation later created charging items under various pretexts. Today they said that equipment maintenance would require additional fees, and tomorrow they said that the use of the site would require a temporary increase in price.

Seeing that Aerospace Industry Corporation would keep postponing the launch of satellites if the price was not raised, Yi Xuexi was forced to compromise in order not to delay the launch. He agreed to the price increase request of Aerospace Industry Corporation and transferred 10 million yuan to them.

Originally they thought they would be satisfied after getting the extra 10 million, but they didn't expect that getting the 10 million was just the beginning.

After that, the price was raised several times, and a total of more than 40 million yuan was added, which emptied all the money in the satellite company's account.

Seeing that it was almost time to pay his salary and he had no money in his account, Yi Xuexue could only come to Li Qingfeng for support. "This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous, the increase in price is all on me, what do they think of the contract as? Like toilet paper?" After listening to Yi Xuexue's story, Li Qingfeng slammed the table hard and said angrily.

This is really bullying. How can you do business like this? They didn't acknowledge the contract after signing it, and then they kept raising the price again and again.

After being angry at the Aerospace Industry Corporation, he was now angry at Yi Xuexi. How could things be done this way?

After taking a sip of water angrily, Qingfeng Li looked at Yi Xuexi with a look of disappointment: "You are also confused. You shouldn't have compromised from the beginning. Everything should be done according to the contract. If you had insisted on not raising the price and let them do it according to the contract, how could there be all these troubles later."

Yi Xuexue was filled with shame, lowered his head and stammered, "Teacher, I was also afraid of delaying the progress, and I thought they were a state-owned enterprise, so they had to have some dignity."

"Have some shame? If they had some shame they wouldn't have raised the price."

Sitting back in the chair, Li Qingfeng took a deep breath and calmed down. Now that things have come to this, this is not the time to blame. The first thing to do now is to get the Aerospace Industry Company to start working as soon as possible and stop raising the price endlessly.

As for the more than 40 million that had already been transferred, Li Qingfeng knew with his toes that it would never be returned.

After a brief thought, Li Qingfeng called the car team to prepare the car. He wanted to go to the Aerospace Industry Company in person to talk to the people there.

After hanging up the phone, he turned to look at Yi Xuexue and said solemnly: "Come with me."

Yi Xuexi nodded and followed Li Qingfeng out nervously.

After getting off the elevator to the underground level, the car team had already prepared the vehicles. After picking up Li Qingfeng, the convoy headed towards the location of the Aerospace Industry Company with great momentum.

The person who liaises with Li Qingfeng in the aerospace company is still the previous vice president Liu Dewen.

Facing the aggressive Li Qingfeng who came to cause trouble, Liu Dewen secretly groaned in his heart, you want the money, but you want me to take the blame.

After lingering outside for a while, he finally entered the meeting room where Li Qingfeng was.

Facing Li Qingfeng's cold face, Liu Dewen showed a warm smile. He stretched out his right hand from a distance and greeted Li Qingfeng with a smile: "Teacher Li, long time no see. I was wondering why there was a magpie chirping when I went out today? It turns out that you came to inspect us."

Li Qingfeng ignored Liu Dewen's outstretched hand and said bluntly, "Boss Liu, don't be so pretentious. I'm not here to inspect today. I'm here to seek an explanation from you."

Liu Dewen's hands froze in mid-air, and the smile on his face faltered for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself and said calmly, "Teacher Li, what's wrong with you? Let's talk it over."

"Talk about it nicely?" Li Qingfeng threw the contract on the table and said in a bad tone, "Your company unilaterally breached the contract, maliciously raised the price, and treated the contract as waste paper. How can we talk about this nicely?"

"Easy to learn satellite company, because of your rogue behavior, now you can't even pay your salary."

Liu Dewen looked embarrassed and quickly explained: "Teacher Li, you don't know that the price of raw materials has risen too much, and we have misjudged the technical difficulty, so the cost has increased dramatically. We really have no choice."

"No way? Why didn't you think of this when you signed the contract? It's clearly written in black and white on the contract. It's a contract, not toilet paper."

"Well, Mr. Li, you are also engaged in scientific research. You should know that there are many unexpected situations in the actual research and development process. The previously estimated cost is not enough. In order to ensure the smooth launch of the satellite, we can only increase investment. This is why we have to increase the price. I hope you can understand."

"I understand you, sir"

"Well, my uncle passed away a few years ago. How about I bring you his photo?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent.

Everyone who followed Li Qingfeng was stunned. They had seen shameless people before, but they had never seen someone so shameless. Liu Dewen had already refreshed everyone's perception of shamelessness.

For a moment, Qingfeng Li was so angry that he laughed and clapped his hands: "Great, great, I have never seen such a shameless person!"

"Thank you, thank you." Liu Dewen still looked at Li Qingfeng with a smile on his face.

Li Qingfeng now realized that Liu Dewen came here just to take the blame and get scolded. He had probably been notified before coming, so no matter how he was scolded, he just had to bear it.

Faced with Liu Dewen, who was as resolute as a dead pig and not afraid of boiling water, Li Qingfeng suddenly lost interest in scolding him.

He said calmly, "Tell me, how do you want to solve this problem? Stop giving me those useless excuses. You must give me an explanation today."

Seeing Li Qingfeng's change of attitude, Liu Dewen put away his slick smile, cleared his throat and said, "Teacher Li, I won't hide it from you. Since we accepted this order from your company, the funds allocated by the higher authorities have been much less. The company is indeed in trouble, but we also know that we did not do it right this time. Our idea is that for the subsequent launch work, we promise not to increase the price, and speed up the progress, and we will definitely complete the satellite launch on time."

"That's all? What about the extra money you collected before? More than 40 million is not a small amount. Are you going to forget about this amount?"

"We have just informed you of the overcharged money. We are really short of money now and cannot refund you. We plan to compensate you with technical support or subsequent cooperation discounts. Do you think this is okay?"

It was obvious that the aerospace company had made a plan for this money, and Liu Dewen spoke out the company's compensation plan without hesitation.

Yi Xuexi, who had been silent, couldn't help but speak after hearing the compensation plan of the Aerospace Industry Company, but was stopped by Li Qingfeng.

This was not unexpected to Li Qingfeng. How could he take the money out of someone else's pocket? It was already good enough to be able to compensate for the technology.

Li Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Forget about the subsequent preferential compensation. I am worried that next time we cooperate, you will directly raise the base price by 40 million."

"That will never happen," Liu Dewen smiled awkwardly, his tone clearly lacking in confidence.

Li Qingfeng curled his lips and did not continue to argue. Instead, he directly stated his plan: "Let's put it this way. After the satellite is launched, our company will be exempted from four years of satellite maintenance."

"no"

Before Li Qingfeng could finish his words, Liu Dewen immediately interrupted him, saying that this plan clearly exceeded the bottom line of the aerospace company. (End of this chapter)
