Chapter 94 - 93: Placement of Personnel
After a moment of frowning, Liu Chengpeng said in a deep voice, "Even if it is as you say, dropping it is indeed more prudent than renewing. However, the group indeed lost this deal, and the profit from the Duo Cui’er project far exceeds the profit from our current brand."
Liu Chengpeng paused, emphasizing, "It’s several times the profit! This is a huge loss for the group. You can’t escape responsibility just because of external factors! You are currently the group’s Chief Executive Officer, and you need to take responsibility for this!"
"Of course!" Wei Xueqing said, "I never said I wanted to escape responsibility, so after other team members returned, I contacted a designer brand studio I knew, and discussed cooperation intentions with them. They expressed willingness to give us a chance, and I will take charge of this matter, aiming to finalize it within a month."
A shareholder sneered, "Merely expressing a cooperation intention is even less reliable than cooperation with Duo Cui’er Company. In my view, as long as it makes money, it’s a good project, no matter what risks follow! Now that Duo Cui’er has completely suspended our cooperation, it directly impacts our financial losses. If it takes a year to check Duo Cui’er’s accounts, it means we still have a year to make money. We could even turn around Duo Cui’er’s economic situation, which is more practical!"
"Exactly!" Wei Xueqing said, "I haven’t disregarded such factors. But have you thought, if Duo Cui’er is suddenly investigated, how passive we would be? What about the stockpiles in our hands? Who will take responsibility?"
"Everyone wants to make money, I do too. But running a business isn’t a one-time deal; it requires long-term development. I absolutely don’t allow an uncontrollable project in my hands!" Wei Xueqing said coldly.
Liu Chengpeng was pondering.
The other shareholders were also waiting, watching for Liu Chengpeng’s inclination.
Evidently, Liu Chengpeng had already become the leader of these shareholders.
After a long pause, Liu Chengpeng said, "If you think this project has potential, I can give you a week to negotiate, and the result needs to be proven with a letter of intent. A month is too long; we can’t afford to wait. If you get the letter of intent, we can give you another month to sign the cooperation agreement!"
Wei Xueqing could detect the implication within those words.
