Chapter 643: Zero-Sum Game 1 (Part 2)

"Why is this happening? This is clearly that, this, Michelle, I really do."

Le Xiao looked at the motion signed by Ji Mo 15 years ago in horror. Michelle had already changed the signature of the motion to Le Xiao. She kept shaking her head.

"How can this be? It was Xiao Qing's father who made the motion. How can it be attributed to me? I really do..."

"Have you forgotten what I just said, Secretary Le Xiao, you must fulfill your current obligations and be able to undertake what you can do. I just want to let you know first. You don't need to speak at the city meeting later. Our General Affairs Department will do all the explanations on your behalf."

Le Xiao swallowed, Michelle turned off the light and shadow screen, and continued to talk to Le Xiao about some of the reasons for the economic changes in the city this time. Le Xiao also listened carefully.

"If this continues for a long time, the operating conditions of more than 600 companies will continue to deteriorate, a large number of people will be unemployed, and the consumption level in most districts will plummet. In the short term, it will impact many districts, and the chain reaction will begin to sweep the entire city."

Le Xiao still didn't understand some things, although Michelle had tried to make it simple.

"Let me give you a simple example. The media agency you used to work for originally had 1,000 people subscribing to your media's consultation and paying every month. If suddenly one day, the number of people decreased by 20% and only 800 people were left, then your salary would shrink by 20%. If you simply calculate without adding tax calculations, your original salary of 1,000 yuan will only be 800 yuan. Originally, you might spend 800 yuan and save 200 yuan in a month, but now you only have 800 yuan in your pocket. Without the savings, will you choose to spend all the 800 yuan as before?"

Le Xiao swallowed and shook his head.

"Of course not. If I get sick or my family needs money, I will."

"If the situation continues to deteriorate, what will you do? What if your salary shrinks to 600 or even lower? You naturally can't afford the things you can afford on weekdays, and consumption will naturally shrink. After the reduction, industries related to consumption will be impacted. For example, a breakfast shop used to have 100 people every morning, but because of the economic downturn, only 50 people can come to the store, or even less. The boss can't pay wages. The only way is to reduce the number of employees to keep the store running. Employees who are forced to leave the store have no income, but in such a bad situation, they can't even find a job. In the end, the citizen level drops, and the money in his pocket becomes less and less, so he can only work on the farm."

Le Xiao took a deep breath.

"Isn't that terrible?"

"It's good that you understand. You must clearly realize how much harm will be caused to everyone if the economic environment in the city deteriorates. In this way, you can be emotionally involved in the TV conference tomorrow morning instead of being dry."

Le Xiao blinked. It was the same as the last few times. Michelle had fed her a lot of magic potions in advance. She was confused most of the time, but when she was speaking, she suddenly felt empathy and naturally spoke hard.

"How about this time, Sir Michelle, I'll do that."

"I don't have time to give you this or that. How are you doing with the law collection I asked you to recite before?"

Le Xiao blinked, smiled awkwardly and raised her hand, with a gap between her index finger and thumb.

"A little bit, but I remember some"

In the large conference room on the second floor of Building 0, Section 1, many businessmen showed surprised expressions, looking at the two people who walked in from the door. Everyone knew the couple, the Angus couple, the richest man in Brilliant City.

Logistics and transportation are the golden goose that lays the eggs for the Angus family. The underground transportation network and logistics network are all built by the Angus family. However, they basically do not participate in any gatherings in private, and are quite low-key. They rarely appear in public. Except for attending the monthly routine audit meetings of the city meeting, they basically live a life like a hermit.

"Good evening, everyone."

Avano greeted politely, and Locke sighed, seeing that many people's faces were shining, because many people speculated that the money given to each company by the Operations Department was no more than two or three million, but now it is different.

"First of all, the purpose of our coming here is to invest."

As Angus said, his wife Violet took her mobile phone and opened several light and shadow screens, which displayed the market value of more than 600 companies.

The largest company, Brilliant Industry, has a market value of less than 50 million, and the lowest, a small company called Zhengxiong Chemical, has a market value of less than 2 million, which is basically on the verge of bankruptcy, and one foot has already stepped into it.

"First of all, I want to tell you that our investment is long-term, not short-term."

Many people under the stage regained some of their brilliance, and Miris was fully awake.

"Then may I ask Ms. Violet, your investment in us, if..."

The man who had teased himself in the square before, with plump cheeks but a whole circle of thin body and loose suit, stood up and said, he is the boss of Zhengxiong Chemical, Zheng Xiong.

"Indeed, our investment may go down the drain."

For a while, many people became dejected again. Not to mention the short term, even in the long term, they did not have a good profit point. Due to the deterioration of the business environment in many places in the middle and lower classes, although they could survive by investing their money, they could not find it. A good profit point, which is the core problem, will once again fall into a situation of being unable to make ends meet, and their only means is to reduce the size of the company, but once the scale is reduced, they may miss out on many orders.

"However, our investment is limited to more than 600 of your companies, working together to complete a proposal that will be submitted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology tonight. It is a new industry, but the cycle is too long, so in the next three years, we will Your company needs a minimum investment of 5 million and an upper limit of 20 million.”

For a time, many people showed happy expressions, and Milis immediately thought of establishing an agricultural base in the barrier area.

"May I ask Ms. Violet, are you referring to the construction of the agricultural base in the barrier area?"

Violet shook her head.

"As for what it is, let it be reserved for the time being, because the bill submitted by Le Xiao, secretary of the 13th Section of the Business Division, which can save you, has not been passed yet. There will be an impromptu city meeting tonight, and you will know the result tomorrow morning. And once the results are available, please come to our Angus family territory tomorrow. I will hold a grand banquet, and you only need to sign a contract with us, and the money will be directly transferred to your company's account. Next, I hope you can cooperate with the administrative department. If you want to continue operating, I think this bill is a good life-saving straw. "

Violet had just finished speaking, and many people were already shouting excitedly. Avano sighed, smiled and clapped his hands, and the venue became quiet.

"Don't be too happy. Once you start this large-scale cooperation in new industries, it will be very hard, but you must have confidence. I believe that everyone present has heard about our family. The situation is similar to that of our family at that time. This is what business is all about. If you, as the person in charge, do not have confidence in your future, many setbacks that may seem easy to overcome will eventually become your crushing The last straw, as for the investment, after the capital is recovered, we only need 10% of your investment dividend, and this fee will be used to create the underlying business environment.”

"Only 10%?"

Milis looked at Avano's stretched out finger in disbelief. Then Avano laughed, bowed, and left the venue with his wife. Locke stood up.

"Next, please wait in Section 1. Section 1 will provide you with food and accommodation for the video conference tomorrow morning. The section chief will come in later to hand over some internal company information to you. I hope you will answer truthfully."

Locke said that and turned around and walked out of the conference room. At this time, the situation in the entire conference room was completely different from before.

"You two are really losing money. In the next three years, you need to come up with at least 6 billion in funds."

Locke said in a relaxed tone, and Avano smiled.

“The power of capital is indeed terrifying, especially when it is uncontrolled, but if as a holder of capital, you clearly know where the capital comes from, you have the right to choose whether to send the capital back or hold it. in hand."

Locke sighed.

"That bastard Jean, he should obviously solve these things."

Violet smiled.

"Indeed, if Mr. Jean had spoken to us earlier, our husband and wife would have done our best to support him, but now we just changed the method, and the result is still the same." m.
