Chapter 746: The Influence of Rumors

After a simple calculation, based on an average of two months, the arrears of the 40 small supermarket companies acquired by Changping Supermarket Company are likely to be as high as nearly 2 billion.

Calculated from these three aspects, the amount of working capital that Pingyu Group needs to invest in the future is as high as 5 billion. However, in this way, the amount of funds on Pingyu Group's books is completely insufficient.

If the amount of funds is only insufficient, then the follow-up actions of Changping Supermarket Company can be temporarily slowed down. It only needs to persist for a period of time, and with the hematopoietic ability of Pingyu Group, it will soon be able to make up for this part of the working capital. .

At most, it only slows down the development speed of some Changping supermarket companies themselves. However, the payment owed to those suppliers has become urgent. After all, the arrears period is only three months at most.

Moreover, those original suppliers only signed an agreement with the owner of the original company, and did not agree to the follow-up cooperation with Changping Supermarket Company, so they can still default on the payment.

To put it simply, today's Changping Supermarket Company, or the entire Pingyu Group, has fallen into an embarrassing situation of tight capital chain.

If there are no accidents, then as long as a period of time passes, the problem of Pingyu Group's tight capital chain can be easily resolved.

However, as the rumors spread more and more widely, the internal situation of the Pingyu Group became more and more serious in the mouths of the people under the three people became tigers.

As a result, those suppliers naturally couldn't sit still. Many suppliers have begun to contact the person in charge of Changping Supermarket Company, demanding that Changping Supermarket Company immediately settle the previous payment in arrears.

Under the urging of these suppliers, they also added a lot of pressure to Changping Supermarket Company and even the entire Pingyu Group.

Once there is no way to pay for these goods, it will prove that there is indeed a huge problem in the capital chain within the entire Pingyu Group.

Regarding the financial issues within the Pingyu Group, only the top management of the Pingyu Group can know clearly. For the ordinary employees of Pingyu Group, these can even be regarded as the group's internal secrets.

Ordinary employees have no way of knowing the real situation inside the Pingyu Group, and the rumors from the outside world will make the hearts of the Pingyu Group fluctuate.

By that time, the series of consequences caused by these rumors will also be extremely bad. Even, it is very likely to affect the internal stability of Pingyu Group,

and even future development.

However, it has to be said that the people who launched these rumors, or the black hands behind the scenes, really know more about Pingyu Group than ordinary outsiders.

It seems that the other party has also conducted a precise and detailed analysis of Pingyu Group. Indeed, as the rumors said, although the amount of liquidity on Pingyu Group's books is not as serious as what the other party said, it is indeed not enough to take care of the follow-up affairs of Changping Supermarket Company in a very short period of time. Everything is covered.

As for similar rumors, these high-level executives of Pingyu Group actually did not get the news immediately. After all, the current Pingyu Group has only just entered the scope of Linhai Province.

As for these rumors circulating in the Linhai Provincial Business Alliance, based on the network of Pingyu Group's personal connections within Linhai Province, there is no way to get news in a short time.

Of course, the top executives of Pingyu Group have also heard about these rumors. However, they have no way of knowing how serious the situation has become.

However, it happened that a few days ago, Pingyu Group and Su Group had reached a strategic cooperation agreement. Although the two parties haven't discussed a series of detailed rules in the process of cooperation, in any case, Su Guanfeng and Chen Ping have already reached a consensus.

Su Guanfeng also notified Chen Ping about the series of follow-up effects caused by these rumors circulating in the outside world. Regarding this, Chen Ping was also a little surprised.

Su Guanfeng's news channel is naturally many times stronger than that of Pingyu Group. Even Su Guanfeng, the person behind the scenes who promoted all this, had already given an accurate answer.

However, it did not exceed Chen Ping's expectations. Naturally, it was Guo Yunqi, the chairman of Qingyun Real Estate Company. All the rumors were pushed by Guo Yunqi.

Of course, it's not just Guo Yunqi himself. In the short-lived alliance created by Guo Yunqi, the chairman of Qingyun Real Estate Company, several large group companies participated in it. There are even traces of several large supermarket chain companies in the entire Linhai Provincial Business Alliance.

Under the concerted efforts of these people, such a simple rumor seemed to form an extremely strong storm, sweeping the entire Linhai Province business alliance.

Regarding the current situation, Chen Ping was somewhat surprised, but he didn't take it too seriously. It wasn't just Chen Ping, even the dozen or so high-level shareholders in Pingyu Group who got the news just smiled at this.

If the outside world is rumored to be related to other issues within the Pingyu Group, then these high-level shareholders need to think carefully.

However, the target of these rumors circulating outside is the financial problem of Pingyu Group. In the eyes of the dozen or so high-level shareholders in Pingyu Group, this is an extremely ridiculous thing.

Because for Pingyu Group, the least of their worries is Pingyu Group's ability to grab funds. In other words, what they trusted the most was Chen Ping's ability that was different from ordinary people in this respect.

This is the trust accumulated in one incident after another, how could it be crushed by such simple rumors?

However, although the top ten shareholders of Pingyu Group are as stable as Mount Tai, some middle and high-level managers below, and even some well-informed bottom-level employees are worried about this.

Most importantly, the pressure on Changping Supermarket Company has begun to increase. Dozens of suppliers came to the door in unanimous agreement, demanding that Changping Supermarket Company immediately pay the previously arrears.

However, without the approval of Pingyu Group's top management, the middle and high-level managers of Changping Supermarket Company can only do their best to deal with the other party.

On the other hand, they urgently contacted Sun Qian who was still in Dongjiang Province. Although the current Sun Qian is only the general manager of Changping Supermarket Company, in fact, within the entire Pingyu Group, Sun Qian's identity and status can definitely be ranked among the top five.

Recently, Sun Qian did not come to Linhai City, but still stayed in Dongjiang Province. After all, before the completion of the acquisition, Changping Supermarket Company had only one large supermarket store in Linhai Province.

As the general manager, Sun Qian, there is no need to come to Linhai City to sit in the city. Instead, it is better to stay in Dongjiang Province and control the overall situation.

However, Sun Qian is also ready and can come to Linhai City at any time to direct the entire Linhai Provincial Branch of Changping Supermarket Company to carry out large-scale expansion.

However, it was precisely because Sun Qian did not come to Linhai Province that Sun Qian knew nothing about the rumors that were being propagated in Linhai Province.

After trying their best to deal with it for a few days, several persons in charge of the Linhai Branch of Changping Supermarket Company had no choice but to continue to procrastinate. They could only choose to tell the news to Sun Qian who was far away in Dongjiang Province.

After receiving the news, Sun Qian rushed to Linhai City immediately. However, after coming to Linhai City, Sun Qian did not take immediate action, but came to Chen Ping's office first.

Seeing Sun Qian walking into his office, Chen Ping raised his head and smiled. Then let Sun Qian sit in front of him, and then said with a smile: "You have finally rushed over. Without you in charge, it would be difficult for Changping Supermarket Company in Linhai Province to proceed to the next step."

Sun Qian also smiled slightly, and then said softly: "Mr. Chen, although I have not been in Linhai Province before, I already know a little about the series of actions of Changping Supermarket Company in Linhai Province.

The purpose of coming here this time is to be able to command Changping Supermarket Company to carry out the next stage of large-scale expansion. It's just that I have some doubts about some things, and I hope Mr. Chen can answer them for me. "

Hearing Sun Gan's words, Chen Ping also smiled lightly, and then said softly and indifferently: "If you have any questions, just ask directly. There is no need between you and me, so be polite."

Sun Qian also nodded slightly, and then said with a smile: "Actually, I have always been very surprised that Changping Supermarket Company has been expanding through itself, and has been building one after another supermarket stores.

But why did it take the form of acquisitions to expand after reaching the border of Linhai Province? Although I also admit that the speed of expansion will be faster.

But in any case, this will also bring some troubles to our Changping Supermarket Company. Mr. Chen knows no less than me about the supermarket industry, and I believe Mr. Chen should also be very clear about it.

For our Changping Supermarket Company, the acquisition of other small supermarket companies will allow us to quickly own a large number of supermarket stores in Linhai Province.

But in this way, the consumption of funds will be even greater. To put it simply, although Changping Supermarket Company’s previous expansion method seems to be much slower, it has saved a lot of links.

Moreover, any supermarket store, whether it is a large supermarket store or a small convenience store, can be perfectly under our control.

In the process of expansion, Changping Supermarket Company has never expanded blindly, but has made a perfect expansion plan in advance.

For example, in Dongjiang Province, Changping Supermarket Company has dozens of large supermarket stores and nearly 2,000 small convenience stores, forming an extremely complete supermarket network covering the entire Dongjiang Province.

In this way, although the speed of expansion seems to be much slower, in any case, this form of expansion will at least not cause any waste. We can also better control the pace of expansion of Changping Supermarket Company.

However, within the scope of Linhai Province, large-scale acquisitions have been carried out. Although it seems that in a very short period of time, our Changping Supermarket Company can completely gain a foothold in Linhai Province, but it will cause a lot of waste.

I have looked carefully and found that these 39 large supermarket stores and nearly a thousand small convenience stores are distributed in various cities in the entire Linhai Province, but after all, the areas they belong to have certain differences. overlapping.

Although the overlapping parts are not too much, it is still a huge waste when calculated as a whole. Although I haven't done the most detailed calculations, a simple estimate shows that the total acquisition funds needed to acquire these 47 small supermarket companies should be around 10.5 billion to 11 billion.
