The noise was getting louder and louder.
Some suppliers were already clamoring for Li Dong to pay them back.
Li Dong didn't say anything. He found a chair and sat down.
Seeing that there was no response from Li Dong, some of the already-panicked suppliers panicked even more.
Mr. Qin shouted, "General Manager Li, don't you want to give us an explanation?"
"What explanation do you want?" Li Dong said lightly.
"Pay the money first!"
Mr. Qin didn't care since they were at the stage of falling out.
Li Dong didn't look at him. He looked at the crowd and said, "It's the rule to delay the payment. Are you going to break the rule?"
Since it was related to hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan, they didn't care about the rules.
As soon as Li Dong finished speaking, someone said, "General Manager Li, let's not talk about the rules. I just want to ask, is Baidu's shares Far Away's assets or your personal assets? "
"Is there a difference?" Li Dong asked.
"Of course there is!"
The person said excitedly, "If it's Far Away, we won't worry about you reneging on the payment. But if it's your personal assets, Far Away will go bankrupt. You can just find an excuse to transfer the shares to someone else. Do you want us to sue you every day? "
As soon as he said this, everyone realized they had overlooked something.
After he finished, someone else said, "Yeah, General Manager Li, what's going on with Baidu's shares?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Li Dong said unhurriedly, "This seems to be my own business. Why should I tell you?"
The suppliers were all stunned. You're so arrogant. Aren't you afraid that you'll push us too hard?
Li Dong had seen enough and didn't want to play with them anymore.
Glancing at Mr. Qin and the others, Li Dong said leisurely, "I won't waste any more time. Since you want to break the rules, I won't stop you. "
"If you want to continue doing business with Far away, I welcome you with open arms, but you have to follow the rules. If you don't want to do business with us Far away, come out now, take the money and get lost. There are so many manufacturers these days, we don't need you guys! "
When Li Dong said this, everyone was stunned.
Wasn't this fellow a little too arrogant?
Far away, the suppliers here were all the suppliers. Wasn't he afraid of offending them, and everyone would collectively cut off the goods?
If they ran out of stock, it would be too late to change suppliers even if they were far away, right?
Li Dong knew what they were thinking, but he wasn't afraid.
Who wouldn't want to do a profitable business these days? Could the fifty to sixty people here really work together?
Far away, as long as they had money, Li Dong would be able to find someone to replace them within three days.
Coupled with the supermarket's inventory, Li Dong was not afraid of running out of stock for a while.
Did these fellows really think that they could threaten him by gathering together? What a joke!
"Weren't they all clamoring for money just now? Who wants to take the money now? Step out now! If you continue to argue after today, don't blame me, Li Dong, for using the contract. If you don't have the money, I will prepare a team of lawyers for you all! "
Delaying payment is a rule in the industry, but this is also a signed contract.
In the past, everyone is doing well, and China is a society of human relationships. Very few people use the contract to negotiate.
But at this stage, Li Dong still wants to talk about human relationships with them.
If Feng Yu was forced into a corner, he might not even give them a single cent. What else can they do?
Li Dong is not afraid of going to court. At most, he can drag it out. After three to five months, at least half of the people here will be dragged to death.
Even if they lose the case, Li Dong can just return the money. It's just the court fees, and he doesn't care.
But if he does this, it will be hard for Li Dong to do business in the future, unless he is going to retire with Baidu shares.
This time, everyone was quiet. Li Dong's tone is so arrogant. Is he really rich, or is he bluffing?
If they take the money, the future business with Far Away will definitely fall apart.
But if they don't take the money, if Far Away really goes bankrupt, and Li Dong transfers the Baidu shares in his hands, they might really be dragged to death.
Mr. Qin gritted his teeth. Forget it. At this time, it doesn't matter if they take the money or not.
"General Manager Li …"
Li Dong waved his hand and interrupted him. "Fine, count you in. Anyone else?"
Then, a few more people got up and walked over, but they are all small suppliers.
Li Dong looked at the few people in the front row of the banquet hall and smiled. "Everyone, what's the meaning of this?"
The middle-aged man who spoke first smiled. "General Manager Li, I am here for the gathering today. We will naturally handle the payment according to the rules."
"You all mean the same?" Li Dong asked again.
The others nodded, but Mr. Qin and the others were stupefied!
What's going on?
Li Dong might not know, but they knew in their hearts. The reason why things turned out this way was that these big manufacturers had instigated them to stand up for them.
In the end, with just a few harsh words from Li Dong, these guys gave up?
If they knew this would happen, they definitely wouldn't stand up for them. Not only would their business be ruined, but their reputation would also be ruined.
Not many people liked suppliers like them who didn't abide by the rules. If everyone didn't abide by the rules, it would be fine. But in the end, it was just a few of them. This immediately put them in a difficult position.
Li Dong also didn't expect this result. He thought that this time, there would definitely be big manufacturers who would make things difficult for them.
He didn't expect that in the end, it turned out to be such a situation.
Except for this idiot surnamed Qin who had some ability, the other small suppliers' total payment was at most three million.
He had prepared a big scene before, but now it was in a mess. Li Dong also felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Wasn't this like using a cannon to kill a mosquito? It was a waste of his efforts!
It turned out that harsh words had this effect. If he knew this earlier, he wouldn't have spent so much effort.
Looking at Sun Tao, Sun Tao also didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The current situation was very different from the collective revolt that they had imagined. Could it be that their previous worries were just scaring themselves?
Li Dong exhaled. No matter what, now it was to his advantage. As for what other suppliers thought, he was too lazy to guess.
Without looking at Mr. Qin and the others' ugly expressions, Li Dong said to the door, "Come in!"
As soon as Li Dong's voice fell, the banquet hall's door was pushed open.
First, four fully-armed escorts walked in. Then, six bank staff walked in, carrying a big box in pairs.
Looking at this situation, everyone was a little dumbfounded.
In fact, Li Dong was also depressed. He didn't speak to the others. He walked straight over and opened one of the boxes.
Then, everyone was dazzled by the stacks of red banknotes!
Money, all of it was money!
There were three big boxes of cash, and each box was ten million!
It wasn't that some big manufacturers didn't have the money to pay thirty million, but to be honest, it was the first time they saw so much cash piled up together.
Li Dong didn't know what the others thought, but he was in a bad mood now.
He spent so much effort, but in the end, he only got two or three small kittens. It would be strange if he was in a good mood.
