Rebirth: My college entrance exam score was stolen? I turned the tables and made a billion.

What Zhao Dagong didn't expect was...

At this moment, in the office of the director of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the director was holding a telephone receiver in one hand and looking up at Liu Guangming sitting on the sofa opposite him.

Hearing Zhao Dagong's loud voice on the other end of the phone, which could be heard even without speakerphone, he kept asking which deity had shown such mercy. The bureau chief raised his eyebrows and looked to Liu Guangming for instructions.

The meaning is very clear:

Mr. Liu, this is a huge favor, should I just do it for you now?

Liu Guangming leaned back on the sofa, holding a teacup in his hand, slowly skimming off the foam on top.

Seeing the director looking over, he gently shook his head, then pointed to the ceiling and made a shushing gesture.

The bureau chief was, after all, a seasoned veteran. Seeing Liu Guangming's expression, he didn't immediately understand, but he at least knew what it meant.

"Old Zhao, when are you going to change your temper? You're always so easily startled."

"Let me tell you, this matter was personally overseen and handled by city leaders!"

"The municipal party committee understands the difficulties of your No. 1 Towel Factory and knows that the workers there are not even able to eat."

"That's why the leaders managed to get all the towels that the supply and marketing cooperative had been holding back in the Beiling warehouse to be packaged and disposed of all at once through special channels."

"We'll handle this as a special case; the funds will be transferred directly to you to settle your bad debts, which will relieve your factory's immediate crisis!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Dagong was taken aback.

Then, his mind started racing with calculations.

A special fund of 300,000...

That works out to about two yuan per towel.

Two yuan!

In the past, how much would those scalpers from the south have taken advantage of the situation and driven down prices?

A few cents!

The unit price of two yuan not only fully covered their factory's raw material and labor costs, but even...

A meager profit of just a few cents per item!

"Chief!"

Zhao Dagong was very excited on the other end of the phone.

"I won't say much more. I'll just kowtow to your city leaders later!"

Director Wang suppressed a laugh as he listened to the incoherent thanks on the phone.

"Alright, alright, stop with the nonsense."

"You need to get production back on track at the factory, calm the workers down, and stop causing trouble for the city. That's better than anything else."

"Okay! Don't worry!"

"Alright, I'll hang up now, I have something important to do."

Director Wang then hung up the phone.

As soon as he put down the receiver, the bureau chief leaned back in his swivel chair, pointed at the phone, and started laughing and scolding.

"Boss Liu, listen to this, Old Zhao is practically begging me on the phone."

"That's just how people are; they'll follow whoever feeds them."

"When he came to my office to collect a debt a couple of days ago, he slammed his fist on the table and glared at me like he wanted to eat me alive."

The bureau chief picked up his teacup, took a sip of water, and sighed.

"But then again, Old Zhao is an honest man."

"The factory can't pay wages, and the workers depend on him for their livelihood. Anyone in that position would have a hard time."

Liu Guangming put down his teacup and smiled in agreement.

"Being a factory manager is not easy, and being the manager of a state-owned factory with no money is even harder."

Upon hearing this, the bureau chief nodded in deep agreement.

Then, he leaned forward, his face full of confusion.

"However, Mr. Liu, I really don't understand this."

"Three hundred thousand!"

"This is your hard-earned money. Not only did you not try to lower their price, you actually paid a little more than the cost price."

"This is an immense favor, so why didn't you let me tell him the truth earlier?"

"If you had revealed your identity earlier, Old Zhao would probably be on his way to offer you a toast by now."

Liu Guangming smiled but didn't rush to answer.

He stood up, walked to the office window, and looked down at the bustling street below.

"If this money is just for buying towels, buying a reputation, and then using it to lower the price later, then what you just said is understandable."

"But that's not all I'm after."

After hearing this, the bureau chief suddenly realized what was going on.

Yup!

This Mr. Liu isn't here to do charity; he's here to get his hands on the entire equity of the First Towel Factory!

In Northeast China in 1992, private capital wanted to intervene in state-owned enterprises.

Putting everything else aside, if this matter doesn't have a legitimate basis, the employees below you will tear you apart.

"Brilliant! Boss Liu, you've played a very deep game."

The bureau chief gave a thumbs-up and exclaimed sincerely.

Liu Guangming sat back down on the sofa.

"Anyway, I've paid for it. This act of kindness and gratitude should be given to the city leaders."

"Zhao Dagong is now deeply grateful to the municipal party committee and the government."

"In a little while, Secretary Chen will take me to the towel factory personally with the city's special approval document."

"With municipal leaders in charge and official documents in place, I would then step in as his benefactor to discuss restructuring, equity participation, and production-to-order cooperation."

"This is what we call legitimate and justifiable, this is what we call logical and natural."

"Even if Zhao Dagong has a lot of concerns, when the time comes, he'll probably obediently sit down and sign the agreement with me, right?"

After listening to Liu Guangming's words, Director Wang once again wholeheartedly agreed.

However, he also had his own doubts.

This Mr. Liu may be very young, but his shrewdness, his cunning, and his political wisdom in leveraging external forces...

That's insightful!

However, that's not wrong.

People like Liu Guangming are not only not averse to by the city leaders, but they also feel that this young man is helping them solve a huge problem, and they are willing to stand up for him.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

The head of the finance department of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and Sun Ming walked in.

In front of the bureau chief, the finance section chief took out a thick stack of documents from his pocket and handed them to Sun Ming.

"Director, Mr. Liu, the delivery note, transfer certificate, and official seal are all complete."

"The special funds were processed through the bank's expedited channel, and the deposit has just been confirmed."

The bureau chief waved his hand.

"Okay, that's all for you. Go out and close the door behind you."

"Boss Liu, with these receipts, those 150,000 towels in the Beiling warehouse can be taken away at any time."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the red landline on his desk rang.

Director Wang quickly grabbed the receiver.

"Feed".

"I'm Chen Guohua. Do you still have Liu Guangming?"

Chen Guohua's voice came through the phone.

"Yes, yes, Secretary Chen, all the formalities have been completed, the money has arrived at the factory, and the invoice has been handed over to Boss Liu."

Director Wang quickly reported this.

"it is good."

Chen Guohua responded quickly, his tone revealing excitement.

"Alright, please ask Liu Guangming to wait for me in the lobby downstairs."

"Secretary Lu and Mayor Lin have already signed and sealed the agreement! I've got the city's special approval for Liu Guangming to invest in the First Towel Factory!"

"Tell him to get ready; I can take him to the towel factory right away!"

Upon hearing this, the bureau chief nodded repeatedly in agreement.

After hanging up the phone, the bureau chief looked at Liu Guangming with amazement in his eyes.

He actually made it happen!

The city's top two officials actually dared to grant special approval to a private business owner to invest in a legitimate state-owned enterprise without any supporting documents from higher authorities!

At the same time, the bureau chief felt like laughing.

I wonder what Zhao Dagong's expression would be if he saw the swindler he had just kicked out that morning suddenly transformed into a savior personally led by Secretary Chen, or a god of wealth specially approved by the municipal party committee.
