Chapter 266: Shark fighting (1/2)
The last Linghe Biography sent by Jiang Wenbo made Li Yao jump up directly.
”What, the Shanhai faction is going to be annexed?”
He couldn't help it anymore and contacted Jiang Wenbo through Linghe Chuanshu.
Appearing in the light curtain were two slightly depressed faces. Jiang Wenbo and Guan Xiong were discussing sect affairs together.
”Teacher Jiang, Brother Xiong, what's the matter?”
”In the three major magic magazines, the comments on ”Flying Sword and Armor” are fair, but the evaluations of ”Magic World” and ”Refiner's House” are completely beyond the normal range. There are still so many gaps in the major forums. Comment, it's very unreasonable!”
”You also said in the letter that many distributors have ceased their cooperation, which makes no sense!”
”The Monster Beast Detector has only been on the market for a month, and no major quality problems have been found. Even if the sales are short of time, the cooperation will not be terminated immediately, right?”
”Now, you said that the Shanhai faction might be annexed by other factions. What happened?”
Li Yao went straight ahead and asked like a bullet.
Jiang Wenbo and Guan Xiong looked at each other, sighed, and said:
”Li Yao, you guessed it right, we were under a strong sniper, and the monster detector was targeted before it went on the market.”
”The evaluation articles in the three magic magazines must have problems; the bad reviews on the major forums are also behind the scenes; and we privately understand that many dealers are also under pressure to stop cooperation.”
”However, these are not big problems.”
”The monster detector is indeed a very good magic weapon. According to our return visits to real customers, most of them are very satisfied and expressed the meaning of recommending to friends. As long as we persevere, relying on word of mouth, sales It will get better and better.”
”But now, the biggest problem is—”
Jiang Wenbo pondered for a moment, then laughed at himself and said, ”Forget it, it's okay to tell you, anyway, there is a lot of rumors in the cultivation world, and the capital chain of the Shanhai faction is about to be broken!”
”what!”
Li Yao was shocked.
The financial situation of a sect is top secret among top secrets. Once the capital chain is broken, once it is made public, it will definitely cause a chain reaction and directly destroy the sect!
Jiang Wenbo's ability to tell himself about this meant that the news had already spread, and it had become a well-known secret.
Jiang Wenbo smiled bitterly and said:
”Just a few evaluation articles in the magazine, it is impossible to cause a fatal blow to us; even if many distributors have suspended cooperation, there are many old brothers who have cooperated for decades to support us, we can still use online sales.”
”But now, it is the crystal eye supplier that has a problem.”
”The crystal eye supplier we cooperated with, after providing the first batch of crystal eyes, has been pushing back and forth for various reasons, delaying delivery, but in the communication, they have repeatedly ensured that there will be no problems, just because The supply of raw materials and other objective reasons had to be delayed, and they would definitely deliver the goods before the deadline and compensate for the related losses.”
”This crystal eye supplier has been cooperating for a long time, and we have a lot of trust in each other, so we believe it.”
”Without getting Crystal Eyes, tens of thousands of semi-finished monster beast detectors were refined and even pre-sold.”
”As a result, it was postponed three times, but in the end this crystal eye supplier tore up the contract and terminated the cooperation!”
”In this way, all of our pre-sales will have to be withdrawn. In addition to double-returning customers' pre-sales, this will also have a certain impact on word-of-mouth.”
”More importantly, more than 10,000 semi-finished monster beast detectors are all refined according to the crystal eye specifications provided by this supplier. It is difficult to replace the crystal eye of another sect.”
Li Yao nodded.
As a refiner, he knew very well that the crystal eyes refined by various sects had great differences in specifications, and the size difference was one millimeter, and it was impossible to be universal.
But there is one more thing, he doesn't understand:
”Mr. Jiang, when you signed the contract with this crystal eye supplier, there should be a breach of contract clause? And the penalty should be more than your loss?”
Jiang Wenbo said:
”Li Yao, you are not a managerial cultivator, so naturally you don't understand the truth.”
”Yes, there is indeed a breach of contract clause, but now that people turn their faces and deny others, they can only resolve it through legal means! After a year or two of the lawsuit, we will definitely win the lawsuit, but it is also a way to get the liquidated damages in hand. Two years, even three to five years later!”
Li Yao thought for a while, and wondered:
”But what good will the other party do if you do this? Money, goodwill, all have suffered heavy losses! It's almost a death by yourself, and you have to drag the Shanhai faction to bury it together!”
Jiang Wenbo shook his head:
”You are wrong. The Shanhai School will definitely die before it. We will have two loans due next month. Because of this incident, we have lost a lot of funds and we can't pay at all.”
”What's even more bizarre is that the funds of the Shanhai Sect were leaked out somehow. Now the entire cultivation world knows that the chain of funds of the Shanhai Sect is about to break. Who else is willing to lend us money?”
Li Yao frowned, and after a moment, asked:
”Mr. Jiang, can you tell me how much the Shanhai School still has a funding gap?”
Jiang Wenbo was taken aback for a moment, and Guan Xiong, who had been beside him with a calm face, said:
”Up to now, what can't be said? The outside world has even got our financial statements! Besides, the monster detector is a cooperative project between us and Li Yao, and Li Yao is also a partner, so we should know our situation. ”
”Now, all of our factions are thinking of ways and searching all the relationships. By next month, it is estimated that there will be a funding gap of three to five billion yuan. If it is not resolved, the funding chain will break and the Shanhai faction will be over!”
Li Yao nodded thoughtfully
