My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

Chapter 1070
At Baroque's headquarters, Lauren and Harrison were having tea with the
general managers of various departments in the chairman's
office. Everyone present had been with the company for over 20 years, making
them veteran figures.
“We received another order worth 3.5 billion dollars from Sagen. I suggest
allocating some of it to the branch offices!” The first to speak was Seamus
Chezk, the general manager of the Business
Department.
Despite being 55 years old, he exuded vitality. He had a pair of sharp eyes that
held more authority than even the chairman, Harrison.
Jalen, the general manager of the Production Department, frowned and glanced
at Seamus coldly. “The branch offices only have a little over 400 employees and
are lacking in technical personnel. They're facing even more terrifying backlogs
of orders than we are here.
“Hera, that girl, is still young. Her workload is no lighter than ours!”
He lifted the teacup from the table, took a sip to wet his throat, and
casually added, “Mr. Chezk, are you not familiar with the saying that
greed leads to the swallowing of the snake by the elephant?”
It was obvious he was blaming Seamus for taking on too many
orders.
“I understand that, but the chairmen of those companies had personally come
over, and these are all well-known entrepreneurs.
How could I refuse?”
Seamus was also helpless. If it were just some small businesses
sending orders to them, he could have perhaps found an excuse to decline them.
However, these were all medium to large enterprises with assets exceeding a
hundred billion or even 200 billion.
Baroque could not afford to offend them, let alone a small general manager like
himself.
“Let's think of ways to raise funds.” Jalen Cross shook his head with a bitter
smile. He was not targeting Seamus. They had worked together for over 20
years, he knew Seamus inside out.
There was a time when Baroque had no orders and Seamus had been worried
sick, causing half of his hair to turn white.
Seamus looked at Harrison and Lauren, “Madam, if we can’t manage
it, let's just send out the orders and get them done. With Innovate Collective
missing out on the cooperation with Universal Group, there should be a lot of
vacancies in equipment. They probably won't refuse!
“No.” Lauren's expression changed instantly. “They're our archenemy. They've
been suppressing our company for years. Baroque will never
work with them.”
She did not mention the most important thing, which was that Innovate Collective
had sent hitmen to assassinate herself and
Harrison this morning.
Harrison, who rarely smoked, lit a cigarette and took a deep drag
before speaking, “If we continue like this, Baroque will inevitably be
overwhelmed. The only way to change the situation is to expand our
production lines infinitely.”
Three essential conditions were required to expand production lines- space,
employees, and equipment. The cost of renting space and hiring employees was
not too high, but purchasing the equipment needed was the biggest problem.
Lithography equipment was extremely expensive, especially since most of the
orders received required 12nm chips. Previously, Baroque had a billion prepaid
by Drake Group to buy seven 12nm lithography
machines.
However, the production capacity was still far from enough. Not only that, it did
not even meet Drake Group’s demands.
Seemingly having made an important decision, Harrison stubbed out the half-
smoked cigarette in the ashtray and turned to Lauren. “With our company's
current qualifications, how much money can we
borrow from the bank?”
“We can probably get around 300 million, but it'll take 15 days to process,”
Lauren replied.

“Why are you looking at me when your niece is calling you?” Lauren found it
somewhat amusing. It seemed he saw her as a fierce tiger.
Harrison answered the phone. “Helena.”
“Uncle, I heard from Dad that Baroque is short of money lately. I've already sold
my company and have 700 million dollars. I'll transfer it to you later!”
“Helena, you..."
