People in the Republic of China era began to rise from industry.

"Old Fan, what are your thoughts?"

Lin Yi did not respond to Tang Side's suggestion, but instead looked at Fan Zhongxu who was standing to the side.

Fan Zhongxu gave a bitter smile and leaned back weakly: "I'm really tired after all these years of running around. Once this is over, I want to take a good rest."

"I just feel guilty towards you, Chairman Lin."

"If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have bothered getting you to invest in the alkali plant in the first place."

"There's no benefit at all, and we've even offended Song Wenchang. What's the point?"

Is there any sorrow greater than a broken heart?

Lin Yi shook his head and smiled, "Old Fan, if you put it that way, then I'll take it as you having no opinion on this matter."

The seemingly random sentence left Fan Zhongxu and the others completely bewildered.

"My idea is that this price war should not only be fought, but it should be fought with great momentum."

"It's all about competing on low prices."

"The alkali plant is operating as usual, and the expansion plan continues to be promoted."

"As for the selling price, no matter what the price of imported goods is, we will be 10% lower than theirs."

"If he dares to give it away for free, I dare to pay him."

Hearing Lin Yi's aggressive words, Fan Zhongxu was startled and sat up abruptly.

Downstreet's eyes nearly popped out of his head.

Even Professor Hou subconsciously adjusted his glasses.

"Chairman Lin, this is not something to be done out of spite."

Downs spoke, looking anxious.

"Once we get to this point, we'll have no way out."

"If we can't hold on any longer, even if we want to sell the technology, I'm afraid no one will be willing to take it on."

"Even if it can be sold, the price will definitely be greatly reduced."

"Old Tang, how about you sell me your five percent stake now? I'll give you double the price."

Lin Yi suggested with a smile.

Downstreet was speechless.

It was obvious that Lin Yi was dissatisfied with him.

Lin Yi smirked: "If Lao Fan has no objection, then I have the most shares, so I have the final say."

"It's no use if you disagree."

"Of course, I never cheat my friends in business, and I will bear the losses caused to the alkali plant by the price war myself."

"However, no matter what the final outcome is, everyone, including Lao Fan, must transfer half of their shares to me."

"As for the price, it will be based on the price I set when I invested."

"Do you all have any objections?"

There was a moment of silence in the office before Fan Zhongxu finally spoke.

He shook his head vigorously, saying, "Everyone owns shares in the alkali plant; there's no reason for you to bear the losses yourself."

As he spoke, he suddenly started cursing: "Damn it, I, Fan Zhongxu, have stumbled and struggled for half my life, all for the sake of this pride."

"Why did you chicken out when faced with this?"

"Chairman Lin, I'll do whatever you say about this."

"The worst outcome is that the alkali plant will go bankrupt, which is not a big deal."

"But we must fight to the very end to prove ourselves!"

Fan Zhongxu is back in full force, and his words are unusually domineering.

Seeing him like this, Downsted closed his eyes in despair.

It's over, it's over.

Once Lao Fan becomes stubborn, not even nine oxen could pull him back.

Lin Yi, on the other hand, was all smiles.

He turned to Professor Hou, who hadn't spoken until now: "Professor Hou, what are your thoughts?"

"I'm just a tech guy."

Professor Hou smiled and said, "I don't understand business matters, so you can make the decisions."

"In short, I plan to retire in China."

Hearing this, Downstreet completely gave up hope.

"Three to one, let's do it."

Lin Yi ignored him.

He went straight to his plan: "In war, supplies must be ready before troops can move, so the first thing we need to do is raise money."

“I can come up with 3.5 million, of which 1 million is the third phase of investment.”

"The remaining 2.5 million will be calculated based on the capital increase and share expansion, so Lao Fan and you all need to each contribute half of the shares as operating assets for the alkali plant. Does everyone have any objections?"

Lin Yi knew everything about the three people.

They were already at their wits' end, and now they simply couldn't come up with any money no matter what.

"Of course I have no objection."

Fan Zhongxu spoke without thinking.

He was also a seasoned businessman, and he knew that Lin Yi was definitely planning to use these shares to raise funds.

"However, Chairman Lin, let's not talk about Song Wenchang's relationship."

"At this point, I'm afraid no one will take over these shares."

Whether or not someone takes over depends on how we operate.

Lin Yi smiled with full confidence.

The conflict between Yongli Alkali Plant and Song Wenchang back then can only be considered an internal strife compared to the current situation.

Neither the financial sector nor the business sector wants to get themselves into trouble over something like this.

But this time it's different.

This is for external audiences.

When facing external threats, one can trust the fighting spirit of the Chinese people.

Therefore, Lin Yi was confident that he could raise a sum of money using the half of the shares handed over by Fan Zhongxu.

He didn't explain in detail, and then said to Fan Zhongxu, "Old Fan, it's time to make use of your connections."

"You need to notify everyone you know and see if anyone is willing to invest in the alkali plant at this time."

"I'll discuss the specifics with anyone who's willing."

Fan Zhongxu has been in business for many years, and his social circle is far superior to that of Lin Yi, who has only recently become successful.

As long as a large net is cast, someone will always fall into it.

"it is good."

Fan Zhongxu hesitated only briefly before agreeing.

This is a matter of losing face.

He usually can't do that.

But at this point, it's better to lose face.

Moreover, this is based on the stock price before the alkali plant went into operation.

They only contributed half of the shares, while Lin Yi invested 2.5 million, so in the end, Lin Yi was the one who suffered a loss.

The other party has already gone this far, what else can he say?

"Old Tang."

Lin Yi then turned to look at Downs.

"Chairman Lin."

Now that things had come to this, even though Downsted was desperate about the future, he had no choice but to pull himself together.

"In addition to proceeding with production and capacity expansion as originally planned, we must also take the initiative in sales."

"We can clearly tell our customers that no matter what the price of foreign goods is, the price of Yongli Industrial Soda will definitely be 10% lower than theirs."

"it is good."

"In addition, the alkali plant needs to advertise for workers in the newspaper, and the equipment needed for expansion also needs to be tendered in the newspaper."

"In short, the bigger the commotion, the better; the more imposing the atmosphere, the better."

"...Understood, I'll make the arrangements."

Downs was a bit stunned.

Lin Yi's strategy is to fight to the death.

However, Yongli Alkali Plant, being such a small fish, had no chance of breaking free from this huge net.

"That's all, everyone hurry up and get moving."

Lin Yi waved his hand and announced the meeting was adjourned.

The fat sheep are delivered to our door.

This time, he not only wants to win, but he also wants to make a fortune!
