Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 373

Chapter 373: Chapter 373: Is She Trying to Snatch Someone Away?

Lin Chuxia also knew that as a county leader, County Magistrate Bai’s actions were justifiable.

The Xiyang Food Factory, no matter how well it performs, is a private enterprise after all. Currently, the status of private enterprises compared to state-owned enterprises is like that of adopted children vs. biological children.

Even if the adopted child is talented, there’s still a distinction.

Compared to the disappointing biological child, no matter how impatient one becomes, one still has to support and hope for his success.

However, Lin Chuxia wasn’t in a hurry. With the market’s development, in a few years, they would see the reality.

"I’m aware of County Magistrate Bai’s good intentions, but there might be some things that County Magistrate Bai is not aware of. I’m no longer in An City; my husband has been transferred to the city. We are now living in the city, so I’m afraid I cannot accept your proposal."

County Magistrate Bai and Ji Xingwei exchanged glances. Both could hear the refusal in each other’s words.

They didn’t expect Lin Chuxia to decline such an offer.

Although the proposition was slightly unfair, for Lin Chuxia, someone from a peasant background and a private entrepreneur, such an opportunity was indeed rare.

County Magistrate Bai did not want to easily let go of this opportunity, which was a decision made after much discussion, even the share distribution plan had been carefully weighed.

Ancheng Food Factory urgently needed this reform.

"That can be arranged. If you can’t leave your family behind, the County Committee could consider transferring your husband to An City as well. I heard that your husband is originally from Ancheng, and it’d be great for him to contribute to his hometown. An City needs talents."

Lin Chuxia smiled slightly, "My husband’s job may not be easily transferred. He loves his profession. County Magistrate Bai, I won’t say much else, but as for the reform of Ancheng Food Factory, although I cannot take part in it, I can still offer some advice."

County Magistrate Bai and Ji Xingwei turned to listen, and Lin Chuxia directly gave them two words, "Transformation." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

She paused for a moment before continuing, "The reason Ancheng Food Factory is losing market share is due to its products not being competitive enough," which means not being able to compete against Xiyang Food Factory.

Without her saying it outright, everyone present understood this.

"Ancheng Food Factory could scale back its current industry and expand into other productions, like the existing packaging production line, which could be used to produce other types of food packaging."

County Magistrate Bai frowned slightly, "You say that so lightly, but how can we be sure that the transformed industry will be welcomed by the market?"

A new industry, wouldn’t it be even harder to gain market share?

County Magistrate Bai felt that Lin Chuxia was deliberately making excuses.

"Factory Director Su is here today too; I’ve said that it’s fine for either you or Xiyang to participate."

Was he trying to poach her people?

Despite County Magistrate Bai’s relentless pressure, Lin Chuxia remained calm and composed, not giving in.

"I’ve always believed in the principle that there can’t be two tigers on one mountain, and this applies to business management as well. Even with a shareholding system where everyone owns a part of the enterprise and has a say, the real leadership decisions must be held by one person. I can let Xiyang and Factory Director Su participate, but what about the follow-up work?"

Ji Xingwei was still sitting nearby; hence, the decision-maker of Ancheng Food Factory could not possibly be Lin Chuxia or Su Wensong.

Ultimately, they were after the recipe and technology of Xiyang Food. If she really agreed, it would be like selling Xiyang Food Factory to Ancheng Food Factory for less than 20% of the shares.

Both factories produced similar products, and in time, the market share of Xiyang could be gradually eroded by Ancheng Food Factory, even to the point where the entire factory could be assimilated.

The principle of "one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers" also applied to Xiyang Food Factory and Ancheng Food Factory.

This deal was far too disadvantageous.

County Magistrate Bai looked at Lin Chuxia and sighed inwardly.
