Chapter 56: Almost Forced to Death

  It is heard that Duan Haisheng suddenly suffered a heart attack, Yang Yun and Jiang Shaoyun hurriedly rushed to Beijing People's Hospital, where they met Duan Haisheng's wife and daughter who were anxiously waiting in the corridor.

  As soon as they met, the two women cried non-stop in front of Yang Yun, saying that Old Duan was a violent-tempered man who only knew how to work hard, never taking care of himself. He valued the factory more than his wife and daughter.

  Yang Yun could only sigh, Duan Haisheng, a state-owned enterprise leader who came out of the struggle era, for the benefit of the entire factory and the lives of hundreds of people, he could only work hard with a bitter heart, using diligence to make up for his lack of business acumen. He took care of everyone but neglected his own family, and even more so, himself. He was a good leader, but not a good husband or father, which made his family feel extremely sad.

  After comforting him for a few words, Yang Yun found that Zhao Yongping was also there. Not long after, many friends came to visit one after another. Jiang Yang didn't even eat dinner and ran out in a big sweat. The party secretary and deputy factory director of Chiyang Electronics Factory and other colleagues also came over to comfort him.

  The doctor said that Duan Haisheng is not in danger of his life, but needs to be observed and rested quietly. He does not need too many people accompanying him, and others are not allowed to enter the ICU.

  After comforting the family members and sending off the secretary and deputy factory director who came to offer condolences on behalf of the factory, Zhao Yongping called a few friends to the smoking balcony outside, looked around the big front door, and said angrily: "That Huang Bei Yang is not a good thing!"

  It turned out that in the past few days, Zhao Yongping had played a role after joining the restructuring team. He quickly organized an MBO restructuring plan book, which was a plan he had been brewing for a long time and preparing to use at Little King Company.

  Zhao Yongping studied the postgraduate course of Quantitative Economics at Renmin University of China. This professional plan was formulated by him with reference to many foreign MBO cases, and he obtained a lot of professional materials from his classmates and teachers, which were then combined with the actual situation of Chiyang Electronics Factory, and after specific discussions with Duan Haisheng, it was revised to almost perfection.

  All partners who have read this revised proposal document are very satisfied and believe that the plan has theoretical support, data to speak of, and can definitely pass the review of higher authorities.

  If the task of writing the MBO reform plan were assigned to Duan Haisheng, it would be possible that he wouldn't even find the door to reform in half a year. Therefore, everyone admired Zhao Yongping's ability and although they didn't say it out loud, they all accepted him as a member of the team. They also sincerely praised Yang Yun for his efforts in pulling strings.

  Yang Yun had long been secretly laughing at him, of course he knew Zhao Yongping's abilities!

  It's fortunate that Zhao Yongping has made investments in the past, almost none of which have failed. He invested in Step High, OPPO music phones, Huangyi.com, and even had lunch with Buffett, making a name for himself in the venture capital circle. When it comes to corporate management, ten Yang Yuns can't compare to one Zhao Yongping. Yang Yun's greatest advantage is his experience and insight from playing various games before reincarnation, not corporate management!

  After Zhao Yongping revised and perfected the MBO plan, Duan Haisheng found his former superior, a retired director of the Beijing Light Industry Bureau, to add another layer of insurance. He also tried every means to find several other people to help speak for him, and finally submitted the plan to the superior authority, the Beijing Light Industry Bureau, which smoothly gained the support of the current leadership.

  But unfortunately, the Foreign Trade Bureau somehow got wind of the fact that Chiyang Electronics Factory was going to be restructured. Coincidentally, Director Xiao Guoqing was accompanying national leaders on a foreign visit, and Deputy Director Huang Bei-yang was in charge of the bureau's work. He strongly opposed the restructuring of Chiyang Electronics Factory and came knocking on their door directly.

  Chi Yang Electronics Factory is a unit under the Beijing Light Industry Bureau and has nothing to do with the Foreign Economic and Trade Bureau. Huang Bei-yang intervened, and the Light Industry Bureau refused to cooperate, so both sides started arguing.

  Huang Beiyang has a set of sayings, at the Canton Fair, Chuyang Electronics Factory signed a $550 million order, which was led by their Foreign Trade Bureau, and it was Huang Beiyang's big name that was signed. The Light Industry Bureau also got a share of the spoils, such a large performance also has their part, and the responsibility is also linked to a part, how can they easily allow the state-owned enterprises below to reform?

  If a state-owned enterprise is converted into a private enterprise and it delays the country's foreign exchange earning task, affects production, and violates contracts, the Foreign Trade Bureau that guaranteed the Red Sun Electronics Factory will not be willing to take on this risk. If something goes wrong, the Light Industry Bureau cannot escape either.

  Only Huang Beiyang, this official, could say such things. Anyway, for anything that might involve taking responsibility, he's the first to refuse! If anyone else brings up reform again, he'll use the big hat of "breach of contract" to suppress them. If anyone argues a couple of sentences on behalf of Chi Yang, he'll throw down his pen and make harsh remarks, making the person arguing sign a guarantee to take full responsibility.

  In 1989, there were only about 2,000 enterprises nationwide that attempted to reform, and the reform of state-owned enterprises was still in its pilot period, with no conclusion yet drawn on whether it was good or bad.

  Although the two thousand pilot projects were successful, there were also failures. If the reform of Chuyang fails, the contract signed by the Foreign Trade Bureau will be breached, and the Light Industry Bureau cannot shirk its responsibility. Who dares to sign a guarantee letter to take full responsibility? Whoever signs this guarantee letter is tying their own official hat to the fate of Chuyang Electronics Factory, the risk is too great.

  For a time, holding the idea that one thing is better than nothing, no one dared to speak out for Chiyang Electronics Factory again, and the MBO path was thus blocked.

  Duan Haisheng and Zhao Yongping could no longer bear this, so they immediately went to find Huang Beiyang, ready to settle old and new scores together.

  The National Day holiday is over, can't the payment be delayed forever? You keep shouting about breach of contract, but you don't pay and block the Red Sun MBO. Only Huang Bei Yang would do such a disgusting thing.

  Huang Beiyang didn't dodge this time, but when faced with Duan Haisheng and Zhao Yongping's demands, it was still the same phrase: no money!

  Why, the Guangzhou Fair has not yet settled accounts with the Beijing Foreign Trade Bureau, they have not received US dollar payments, so they cannot go to the Ministry of Finance to get the national subsidy for export enterprises in RMB, and therefore cannot allocate funds to Chuyang.

  Looking at Huang Bei's impatient expression on his small face, the two stood in the deputy director's office, hating it in their hearts!

  This rascal official, doesn't give money, doesn't provide policy, almost drove someone to death.

  He recalled how Huang Bei Yang had treated them at the Guangzhou Fair, and Duan Hai Sheng's blood rushed to his head. As a 50-year-old man with a quick temper, he thought about the humiliation he suffered at the fair and now being driven to desperation. He was an old soldier who had fought against the Japanese devils, but because of his lack of background, he couldn't compete with this second-generation official. He was so enraged that he had a heart attack in Huang Bei Yang's office, fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time and didn't suffer any serious consequences.

  Everyone was listening to Zhao Yongping's account, and each person was so angry that their whole body was shaking, their teeth chattering with rage.

  Jiang Yang pounded the wall in anger: "Corrupt official! Bastard!"

  Jiang Shaoyun's eyes sparkled: "Director Yang! Do you want me to contact my friends in the newspaper, and expose this scoundrel?"

  Zhao Yongping hastily stopped him: "Shao Yun, don't go, Huang Bei Yang's father is Huang Moumou, if this matter gets out of hand, it will be bad for everyone!"

  Jiang Shaoyun was startled, and it turned out to be the leader who often appeared on the news broadcast. He couldn't help but feel disappointed: "It's actually him! Can we only suffer this loss? I'm so angry, Old Duan is really capable!"

  Causing such a big trouble, for a moment it was quiet, no one dared to speak.

  Yang Yun laughed: "As long as Old Duan is fine, that's all that matters. About the matter of dragging on and not giving money, I had already made arrangements with Old Duan beforehand, telling him not to worry. Unfortunately, Old Duan has a bad temper, sigh... he probably forgot. That scoundrel Huang Bei-yang said there was no money, but I have ways to make him spit it out, you guys just wait and see the show."

  On the surface, Yang Yun smiled very easily, but in fact he didn't have a hundred percent grasp, however he had to show this attitude, absolutely couldn't because of some reason hurt everyone's enthusiasm, as the mainstay, he must take on the heavy responsibility.

  As soon as this was said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and their expressions relaxed a lot.

  Zhao Yongping gritted his teeth, looked at Yang Yun and said sincerely: "Director Yang, if it's really not possible, we'll do it ourselves! We'll work together, shoulder to shoulder, with people and money, is it more difficult than Wang Jinxi's Petroleum Conference? Is it more difficult than the construction of Xinjiang's Bingtuan reclamation and border defense? Is it more difficult than the launch of the Long March 2 rocket?"

  "Right! Director Yang, I'm fed up with these corrupt officials. Not a single good one among them!"

  "Director Yang, I also agree with Manager Zhao's suggestion."

  Everyone was discussing and condemning, filled with righteous indignation.

  Yang Yun nodded and remained expressionless, without immediately responding, so others couldn't tell what he was really thinking.

  If we do it ourselves, that means abandoning the Red Sun Electronics Factory. From importing electronic components to producing learning machines, rebuilding sales channels, advertising and promoting, everything has to start from scratch, with difficulties and hardships at every step.

  Looking at this group of friends and subordinates, all with eager eyes on him, Yang Yun suddenly gained confidence. With such a capable team supporting him, did he still need to be so timid? Did he still need to worry about being restricted in various ways? He grasped the technology and market, would anyone be able to stop his super gaming empire dream in the future?

  Yang Yun burst out laughing, he had already made up his mind. No one could hold him back!
