Chapter 27 The Magical Organization
Originally, Henry could make a lot of profit every year from this chemical plant, but the social environment has changed too rapidly in recent years, and so many so-called environmentalists have emerged from nowhere.
These people take to the streets to march, holding high the banner of environmental protection, whenever they have time.
It was nothing at first, but these guys were so inflammatory that they brainwashed many immature students and made them fight for their interests. Among them, a little kid who called herself an environmental girl was the most famous.
Don't think these people are kind-hearted. Henry has been in business for so many years and has seen all kinds of storms. He knows the darkness of human nature better than anyone else.
It is undeniable that among these so-called environmentalists there are people who truly want to protect the environment and have green mountains and clear waters. However, most of these people are at the bottom of environmental protection organizations, and it is difficult for them to even reach the middle level.
Most of them, especially those in the middle and upper classes, are pursuing their own interests under the banner of environmental protection. Either you spend a lot of money to hire them as your environmental consultants, or they will make things difficult for you.
Sending threatening letters, organizing demonstrations outside your factory, throwing paint, etc. are all commonplace, making it impossible for your factory to operate normally.
Henry suffered greatly from this and decided to buy himself some peace and quiet.
But the result made Henry even more annoyed.
After you spend the money, these people will really send a so-called environmental consultant, and you will have to pay for this person's salary. If this environmental consultant really only takes the money and acts as a transparent person, Henry will just support him.
This guy refused to do that. After he came, he started to make all kinds of comments about the entire factory, saying that this was unqualified and that would pollute the environment. He caused chaos in the entire factory and everyone was in a panic.
Add to that the money from the environmental protection organization, and Henry ended up losing even more money after starting the project.
Previously, due to the presence of these environmentalists, the factory was unable to operate and could only consume some of the workers' wages.
They can also use the excuse that the factory is not operating to only pay these workers half or one-third of their wages.
Now, although the work has been successfully started, under this guy's reckless command, not only has no order been completed, but a lot of raw materials have been wasted, plus the money spent on rectification to ensure environmental protection.
Finally, there is the workers' wages. Since we are now in the working state, we cannot just pay them half or one-third of the original wages, but have to pay them in full.
The result is that if the work does not start, the loss will not be much, but after the work starts, the loss will be more.
After knowing this, the angry Henry directly fired this troublemaker. As a result, as soon as he arrived at the office today, his secretary brought him a letter, and the owner of the letter was none other than that environmental protection organization.
The letter stated that they would continue to organize demonstrations at the factory gate until Henry compromised and was willing to re-hire their environmental consultant, but because of Henry's previous behavior, the cost of re-hiring would be doubled.
Some might find this strange. Isn't the US a capitalist country? Henry is clearly a capitalist, and the law should be on his side. So why is it that these environmentalists are riding on his neck and pissing and shitting, and he's completely helpless?
It's very simple. The United States is a capitalist country, but there are many types of capitalism. Petty capitalism is capitalism, and big capitalism is also capitalism.
The United States has developed to this day and serves the big bourgeoisie. People like Trump have reached the threshold of the big bourgeoisie after several generations of development, and Han Ying's help has made him a true big bourgeoisie in one fell swoop.
By the way, you see how much these environmental protection organizations are doing. In fact, this is all business. There are many asset tycoons behind the scenes fanning the flames in order to reap small assets like Henry.
What could Henry do about this? He couldn't win the fight, and the only thing waiting for him if he continued was bankruptcy.
All Henry could do was to sell the factory quickly while it still had some value and before he lost all his money, and then take the money home to live on in his retirement.
However, what really gave Henry a headache was that many people now knew that his factory was being targeted by environmental protection organizations, and no one was willing to take over at this time.
Just when Henry was getting worried about this, the secretary suddenly opened the office door in a hurry.
This time, I've walked into a trap.
Henry was already full of anger and had no enemy to vent it on. Now that you have come to me on your own initiative, don't blame me.
Henry was about to scold the secretary, but the secretary's words made Henry swallow the curse back.
"You...say it again?"
Henry couldn't believe his ears and confirmed with the other party with disbelief on his face.
"Someone is coming to buy our factory, and they'll be here soon."
After getting the secretary's second confirmation, Henry immediately became alert. Just when he was thinking about cleaning up quickly, leaving a good impression on the other party, and quickly throwing this hot potato away, the office door was knocked again.
"Please... please come in."
The office door was pushed open, and three men in suits walked in. The leading man glanced at Henry who was sitting behind the desk and said, "Are you the boss?"
"Yes, yes, you are here to acquire our factory."
Ignoring the attentive smile on the other person's face, the leading man spoke directly, "Stop talking nonsense. My time is very valuable. Tell me, how much are you willing to pay?"
Henry tentatively mentioned a number. The other party was obviously an impatient person. After hearing the price, he turned around and was about to leave without saying a word.
"Wait, wait, wait..." Seeing the other party was about to leave, Henry, who was anxious to get rid of the hand, hurriedly said, "It can be reduced, it can be reduced, another 10%, how about 10%?"
"30%, you have to reduce the original price by another 30%, otherwise we will do the same when we acquire other factories."
"Okay...okay."
Faced with the dominance of the man in the suit, Henry had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree.
At first, the price Henry quoted was not high, but the other party disagreed. A further 30% reduction would have been a serious blow to Henry.
But what can he do? If he doesn't agree, and those people from the environmental protection organization make trouble here, I'm afraid the entire factory will be destroyed and he won't get a penny by then.
It’s better to sell it now while it’s still worth some money.
"Okay, here's the contract. Give me an account number. Sign the contract and the money will be transferred immediately."
Seeing that the other party was so straightforward, Henry didn't waste any words. Fearing that the other party would go back on his word, he quickly took out a pen and signed his name at the end of the contract.
