91: Chapter 91 Debt Collection by the Bank

Xue Haixin nodded. "That makes sense."

"However, we can use Samsung's Exynos chips on only some of our models."

"For instance, after this recent ordeal, the high-end image of the current Ideal A-series has dropped significantly."

"So, my next plan is to turn the Ideal A-series into a mid-range line."

"We'll use Samsung's Exynos chips for the Ideal A-series,"

"and then launch a new series,"

"repositioning it as our new high-end Ideal line."

"Naturally, the high-end series will continue to use our own Ideal chips."

"This way, won't we keep our most core element?"

"Furthermore, launching a new series"

"will also help boost our mobile phone sales,"

"which aligns with the 'sea of models' tactic we've always used!"

During the rest of the meeting,

Xue Haixin explained his plan in detail to the shareholders.

Finally, he managed to obtain the board's approval.

Xue Haixin had managed to cling to his position once again.

Of course, he had more than just this one trick up his sleeve;

he had other ideas as well.

Besides strengthening himself,

he intended to take the initiative,

find the opponent's weakness,

and continue to target Bai Jingqing!

After the board meeting ended,

Xue Haixin directly contacted Construction Bank in Kyoto.

He had an old acquaintance there,

who was the head and branch manager of Construction Bank in the Kyoto region.

Xue Haixin had dealt with him many times before;

whether it was for loans or deposits,

Li Xiang Technology was a major client of the Kyoto Construction Bank branch.

Upon meeting his old acquaintance,

Xue Haixin was very direct. "Manager Chang,

inviting you out for a meal this time,

I actually have a favor to ask."

Chang Rongjun, the head of Construction Bank's Kyoto region, was accustomed to a life of comfort.

At this moment, he remained unhurried,

bringing a cup of tea from the table to his mouth,

taking a few sips,

and then saying leisurely, "Chairman Xue,

asking me for a favor now?

Is it to borrow money this time, or what?"

Xue Haixin shook his head. "It's not to borrow money."

Chang Rongjun grew curious.

"Not borrowing money,

and yet you have a favor to ask?"

"As you know,

I'm just a small branch manager,

so I don't have much other power."

"If it's not about borrowing money,

I don't know what else you could need from me,

or what could make a chairman of such a large company like you come to ask me for help?"

Xue Haixin said, "Manager Chang,

please don't mock me. Here's the situation."

He then explained the conflict between Bai Jingqing's company and Li Xiang Technology.

Xue Haixin had already investigated and found out

that the bank Huayao Technology owed money to

was precisely the Kyoto Construction Bank.

While sipping his tea,

Chang Rongjun listened to Xue Haixin's explanation with a frown.

He quickly realized what Xue Haixin wanted to do.

"So, you want me to go and collect the debt?

To deal his company a fatal blow?"

Xue Haixin nodded. "Exactly."

"Old Chang,

once this is done,

I will definitely give you a grand gift!"

Chang Rongjun asked, "Will this work?"

Xue Haixin nodded. "It'll definitely work!"

"His current factory is located in the old Sanlu Milk Powder Group factory."

"Can you imagine it?

A mobile phone manufacturer setting up a factory in an old milk powder plant."

"What does that show?

"It shows that his current financial situation is extremely poor!"

"He doesn't have much capital on hand."

"As long as your bank starts debt collection now"

"and pursues him relentlessly,"

"he'll have to find a way to raise money to repay the debt."

"In that case, the start of his company will be severely affected."

"As long as his company can't get off the ground for a while,"

"I can guarantee that I'll slowly finish him off!"

Xue Haixin made a grasping motion with one hand,

as if he could already see the outcome.

Chang Rongjun nodded.

What happened afterward was Xue Haixin's own business.

However, helping with such a small favor

was harmless enough,

since he and Li Xiang Technology had been partners for many years.

After finishing the meal,

the two of them stood up together.

Chang Rongjun, the head of Construction Bank's Kyoto region, went back and brought several bank staff members,

and they all headed toward Bai Jingqing's mobile phone store.

Arriving at the store entrance,

the two of them first observed from a distance.

They didn't see Bai Jingqing anywhere.

At this moment, Bai Jingqing's store was still very busy,

and no one noticed them.

Xue Haixin patted Chang Rongjun's shoulder

and said, "Old Chang, I'm counting on you for this!"

"Remember what I told you!"

"Once it's done, I'll surely thank you with a generous gift!"

Chang Rongjun replied, "It's a small matter."

He adjusted his clothes

and led several staff members into Bai Jingqing's mobile phone store.

Meanwhile, Xue Haixin called Pang Xietang out,

and the two of them hid in Pang Xietang's black Santana parked by the roadside,

watching the situation inside the phone store.

"Chairman Xue, will this work?"

After failing several times in a row,

Pang Xietang no longer quite believed the promises Xue Haixin made him.

Xue Haixin said, "Just sit here and watch."

"If this doesn't take effect within a week,"

"I'll let you return all the goods you bought from Ideal!"

Hearing Xue Haixin say this,

Pang Xietang was immediately overjoyed. "Chairman Xue,

are you serious?"

"I believe you, it will definitely succeed this time!"

However, in his heart, he was praying,

Please let it fail this time!

Let me return the goods quickly,

and get my house and phone store back!

He really didn't want to struggle for survival while caught in the battle between these two big companies anymore.

They waited there to see Bai Jingqing make a fool of himself.

After entering this small, shabby phone store,

Chang Rongjun looked around and said loudly, "Where is your boss?"

At that moment, a girl with a sweet appearance and a kind, charming smile walked up.

She said, "Sir, is there something you need?"

"I'm a sales guide here."

"If you want to buy a phone,"

"just let me know."

Chang Rongjun slapped the nearby counter,

producing a loud "thwack" sound.

"Didn't you hear me?"

"I said, tell your boss to come out!"

Chang Rongjun's expression was now ferocious,

and his voice was very loud.

This was all taught to him by Xue Haixin,

who told him to act a bit angry right from the start

to intimidate Bai Jingqing,

otherwise, he might not pay back the money.

The female sales guide was immediately startled,

and several other men responsible for packing and shipping phones also stood up,

looking over this way.

"Hey, I say,

where are you from?"

"Are you here looking for trouble?"

A tall male store clerk clenched his fists

and stood in front of Chang Rongjun.

Chang Rongjun couldn't help but swallow hard.

The person in front of him was a head taller than him,

and very muscular too;

those clenched fists were as big as sandbags!

If he were to take a punch from him,

wouldn't he be left black and blue?

As soon as this man appeared,

he had already overwhelmed Chang Rongjun with his presence.

However, Chang Rongjun was no ordinary person either;

although he was a branch manager,

he was primarily responsible for Construction Bank's business in the Kyoto region and had seen many big figures.

He suppressed the fear in his heart,

appearing unmoved.

"I told you to get your boss over here."

"Is your head full of sawdust?"
