Sun Xue was mentally prepared to deal with Wang Ke. She tried her best to control her emotions and said in a gentle tone:

"Mr. Wang, I understand your idea, but do you know? If the same building materials are replaced with our local high-quality building materials, the price will be 20% lower. The financial department has calculated that in just a few months, we spent more than million yuan on building materials alone."

Wang Ke retorted, "How can that be the same? All the suppliers I work with are big brands. Are they comparable to your local ones? You always think about how to save money. Have you ever considered quality issues? If there is a quality accident in the project, who will be held responsible?"

Sun Xue patiently explained, "The suppliers that our company cooperates with have been strictly screened, so the quality is of course guaranteed. I admit that the building materials industry is mixed, but you can't generalize and think that we don't have high-quality building materials locally."

Wang Ke said in a firm tone, "Okay, Mr. Sun, there is no point in discussing this issue. I am the chief engineer of the project and I have the decision-making power."

Sun Xue frowned, the fire in her body seemed to be about to burst out, but she suppressed it.

"Mr. Wang, you have to consider the long-term development of the company. Besides, you haven't tried local building materials, so how do you know that the quality is not good? Why are you so stubborn?"

Hearing the word "stubborn", Wang Ke suddenly became agitated. Regardless of the IV in his arm, he suddenly sat up and prepared to argue with Sun Xue.

The moment he stood up, his arm accidentally touched the flowers on the bedside table.

There was a "pop" sound.

The flower fell heavily to the ground, and its petals scattered all over the ground.

"Mr. Sun, I am here to help you complete the project, not to bargain with you. In the construction industry, who is more authoritative, you or me? I reiterate that it is impossible to change the building materials midway. You'd better give up this idea!"

Wang Ke's aggressive aura startled Zhu Biao who was standing nearby.

Zhu Biao glanced at the angry Wang Ke, and then at the flowers lying on the ground.

He took a few steps forward, picked up the flowers from the ground and put them back on the bedside table without making a sound, and said with a smile:

"Boss Wang, don't be so angry! This is all for the company. If you have anything to discuss, just discuss it calmly."

Zhu Biao naturally supported Sun Xue in his heart. Although he didn't understand what had happened, he couldn't stand Wang Ke's strong personality.

"How can I remain calm? If an amateur insists on telling professionals what to do, how can I continue doing this job?"

Zhu Biao said awkwardly, "Boss Sun is no layman. She was in charge of our company's last real estate project, and it sold very well."

Wang Ke was very dissatisfied with Zhu Biao's words and said coldly:

"Master Zhu, you are here with Mr. Sun to cause trouble, right?"

Zhu Biao got angry when he heard this.

"Boss Wang, what you said is inappropriate. What do you mean I'm here to cause trouble? You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you run a household. In today's economic environment, every penny counts. Do you know how much you can do with the five million yuan saved on materials?"

"The workers can be paid for several months. If a bag of cement costs 100 yuan, we can buy 50,000 bags, and then..."

Wang Ke glanced at Zhu Biao, interrupted him and asked coldly:

"Master Zhu, are you finished?"

Zhu Biao was stunned, curled his lips and uttered two words, "No."

Wang Ke said in a tone that kept people at a distance:

"I'm very tired. I need to rest. You guys go back."

After saying that, he lay down, closed his eyes slightly and stopped talking.

Zhu Biao glared at Wang Ke angrily. Just as he was about to speak, Sun Xue pulled his arm and signaled him with her eyes not to speak.

Wang Ke's strong attitude clearly meant that he wanted to drive the two of them away.

The two had no choice but to leave the ward.

"What the hell, do you think you are so powerful? Is he the company leader or are you the company leader? Look at the tone of his voice, he doesn't even take you, the chairman, seriously."

As soon as he left the ward, Zhu Biao cursed angrily.

"Don't worry, uncle. I definitely can't let him do this. I will look for him again."

"His talent is truly unworthy of his virtue!" Zhu Biao muttered angrily.

Sun Xue has decided that building materials must use local high-quality alternatives. Only in this way can the company avoid a financial crisis.

The next morning, Sun Xue called Zhu Biao and asked him to take her to the hospital.

Zhu Biao knew that it was Sun Xue who was going to look for Wang Ke, and he was very puzzled:

"Xiao Sun, why do you have to go find him? Just go find the big boss, Mr. Lu, and ask him to kill Wang Ke's spirit."

Sun Xue shook her head. "Forget it, I'll solve it myself first. If he still insists on doing it, I'll talk to Mr. Lu about it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Huohua called.

"Speak of the devil and he will appear." Sun Xue joked after taking a look at the phone number.

After the call was connected, before Sun Xue could say anything, Lu Huohua on the other end of the phone asked:

"Xiao Sun, what happened? Did you have a conflict with Wang Ke?"

"No! There is no conflict between us."

"Wang Ke said that you didn't trust his work, didn't support it, and were young and hot-tempered, interfering with his professional judgment."

When Sun Xue heard this, she knew that Wang Ke was telling tales to Lu Huohua.

"Boss Lu, how could I not support and trust him? I have always been cooperating with him and discussing everything with him politely. To be more precise, I have been accommodating him. Now, he actually bites back."

Lu Huohua patiently persuaded, "Xiao Sun, I know Wang Ke has a strong personality and a bit of an impatient temper, so you should listen to his opinions on engineering matters.

He told me a lot of his troubles, saying that he dragged his sick body to work hard to catch up with the progress of the project, and in the end you didn't understand him and still interfered with his decision-making. "

Sun Xue smiled bitterly, "Boss Lu, I didn't interfere with his decision. I discussed with him about using local high-quality building materials to replace his expensive building materials."

"Xiao Sun, he told me about this. The building materials from these suppliers are a bit expensive, but the quality is really good. They have been cooperating with my company for many years and are very trustworthy. When our city hosted the National Games, their building materials were used in the construction of the venues."

Sun Xue retorted, "I know the quality is good, but do you know how much the price is different from our local high-quality building materials? A full 20%. If the entire project is completed, it will cost tens of millions more. In the current economic situation, tens of millions can save a company."

Lu Huohua was also a little surprised. "What a big difference! Are the building materials you have up to standard? Xiao Sun, this is a big deal. Once there is a problem with the materials, the loss will be irreparable!"

"Mr. Lu, if the quality is not up to standard, we dare not use it! Our company's villa projects all use local building materials."

Lu Huohua thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'll talk to Wang Ke about this later, and you can have a good discussion with him. If it doesn't work, we can use a batch of goods first and test whether they are qualified. If they are qualified, we will implement your plan."

"Okay, I see."

"By the way, Xiao Sun, the domestic economic environment is very bad right now, and I've also encountered some troubles here. Your idea is correct. Try to save energy and reduce consumption.

In this economic environment, we must hold on and not make any mistakes. Now a large number of small companies in China can no longer hold on. Within two months, many companies will collapse one after another. "
