King of Industry

"Madam proprietress, your furniture has been here for a few years, right? You can see that a layer of dust has accumulated on it." Zhao Guoyang touched a handful of dust on the ebony furniture and handed it to the proprietress.

"Ah, this..." The proprietress, who was still bragging about herself a moment ago, was rendered speechless by Zhao Guoyang's action.

Seeing the blue and red faces of the landlady, Zhao Guoyang said slowly, "Well, I like this kind of unique thing. I want this set of furniture for 5,000 yuan!"

To be honest, it is precisely because Zhao Guoyang is knowledgeable that he will offer this price that is close to ten, otherwise, if someone who does not understand it can give one thousand to the sky!

"Ah, five thousand yuan?" Hearing this, the proprietress' face, which was covered in powder, changed color a little.

"Brother, your price is too low. My cost is more than five thousand, look at seven thousand..." The proprietress gestured for a number.

"One price, 5,500 yuan! If there is more, I won't want it! There seems to be a good set of tables and chairs in the store called 'Shenglong' just now. I'll go and have a look..." Zhao Guoyang made a gesture to leave .

"Don't, don't, don't go, boss!"

The proprietress hurriedly pulled Zhao Guoyang, and after thinking about it for a long time, she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Succeed, five thousand five thousand is five thousand five thousand. I'll give you a serious cost price, and you'll earn every penny!"

"However, boss, you can introduce more businesses to me in the future. If you need anything, come to my store to buy it. You will definitely not suffer!"

This set of ebony furniture is only suitable for the living room or study room. There is still a lack of beds and dining tables at home. Seeing that the proprietress is also happy, Zhao Guoyang nodded, pointed to the one next to him and said: "Well, the two beds over there, I also want this dining table, so do the math.”

The proprietress immediately calculated with a smile on her face, and reported the number.

Zhao Guoyang nodded, and didn't make any further counter-offers. He picked up a pen and paper, wrote an address to the proprietress and said, "Then please ask someone to deliver the furniture to my house. If it's money, I'll give you a thousand deposit first, and the rest of the goods until payment, okay?"

"Yes, please!" The proprietress managed to get rid of the rotten ebony furniture at the original price, and also sold other furniture to make money, how could she say "no"?

After finishing the furniture, Zhao Guoyang returned home full of ambition.

Since my mother is already working at the telecommunications bureau, there is no one at home during the day.

In desperation, Zhao Guoyang could only take a quilt and cotton mattress, and went back to his newly renovated house, waiting for the furniture deliverer to come to his door.

In the afternoon, the lady proprietress of "Yuexing Home Furnishing Store" personally took three men and moved the things to Zhao Guoyang's home.

Looking at the beautifully decorated big house, the proprietress felt a burst of envy.

Zhao Guoyang didn't treat her badly. In addition to the payment for the goods, he also gave her 50 yuan for the handling fee, and also gave each of the three installers a package of "Hongtashan", which made several people say thank you repeatedly.

After seeing off the proprietress, Zhao Guoyang spread the cotton mattress and went up to it, feeling great.

After lying down for a while, Zhao Guoyang remembered something. After pondering for a moment, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed Liang Xiaofeng from SJ Machinery and Electronics Industry Bureau.

It didn't take long for the call to be connected, followed by Director Liang's steady voice.

"Hi, hello, who is it?"

"Director Liang, it's me, Zhao Guoyang!" Zhao Guoyang said.

Hearing that it was him who called, Liang Xiaofeng was overjoyed: "Ha, Guoyang? Why are you free to call me today? Didn't you say you were going to Yangcheng to attend some auto show last time?"

"Uh...Director Liang, the auto show is over, I just returned home today!" Zhao Guoyang explained.

After chatting for a few words, Zhao Guoyang smiled and explained his reason for coming.

"Director Liang, here's the situation. Last time Director Zheng mentioned that you have a mining machinery equipment factory in SJ, which is about to close down due to poor management."

Hearing that it was because of this matter, Liang Xiaofeng immediately regained his spirits, nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, yes, yes, there is such a thing, when I was on the phone with Zheng Ju the day before yesterday, she still told me about it .”

"From what she said, it seems that there is a big company in South Korea who wants to acquire our mining machinery equipment factory, but it put forward a lot of conditions."

"Director Zheng is planning to meet with the factory manager Li Zhaohe in person this weekend and meet with these South Korean businessmen. Ask me if I'm free..."

"Ah..." Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang's heart skipped a beat.

He didn't hesitate anymore, and quickly told Director Liang his plan in detail.

Zhao Guoyang said bluntly: "Director Liang, this is the situation. After you said this at the dinner table last time, I went back and communicated with the partners in the Samba Kingdom."

"As for her, she is also very interested in our mining machinery and equipment factory in SJ City. She is planning to come over this weekend to investigate and discuss the acquisition. Look at this..."

"Ah?" Liang Xiaofeng was startled when he heard this.

During the last meal, he and Zheng Hongxia did ask Zhao Guoyang for help, but Zhao Guoyang didn't fully agree.

There was no contact for half a month, Liang Xiaofeng thought that Zhao Guoyang would forget about it.

Who knows, Comrade Xiao Zhao is a real person, so he really puts this matter at ease.

Thinking of this, Liang Xiaofeng patted his chest and said, "No problem, Guoyang. Just let your friend come over."

"Since we've decided to sell the factory, I think it's more reliable to sell it to you. I heard from Director Zheng that the people in this company in South Korea are almost judging people by their nostrils. I don't have any good feelings for them."

Zhao Guoyang gave a "hmm" and asked casually: "Then Director Liang, do you think I should call Director Zheng and tell her about this?"

"Hey, there's no need for this. I'll call her later and just talk to her!"

Liang Xiaofeng suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, that friend from the Samba country in Guoyang is coming over this weekend?"

"That's right, come on Saturday night. On Sunday, if we have time, we can visit this mining machinery and equipment factory in our SJ city." Zhao Guoyang replied.

"That's good!" Liang Xiaofeng said solemnly.

"You come directly to the guest house of our Mechanical and Electronic Industry Bureau on Saturday, and I will open two rooms for you. You and your friend will stay at night, and the next day with my car, let's go to the mining machinery and equipment factory together, how about it?"

"Success, success! It's just too much trouble for Director Liang, and he has to work overtime on rest days."

"Hey, what's the trouble! My brother!"

Liang Xiaofeng laughed and said: "That's it, I'll give Director Zheng a break!"

"Okay, okay, goodbye, Director Liang!" Zhao Guoyang laughed twice and hung up the phone.

After putting the eldest brother aside, Zhao Guoyang felt a little uneasy when he thought of the news he had just received.

Speaking of which, after having that meal with Liang Xiaofeng, Zheng Hongxia and others, he still had some understanding of the SJ City Mining Machinery Equipment Factory.

Judging from the information obtained by Zhao Guoyang, the poor operating conditions of this company have nothing to do with their manufacturing level, but a problem with their business strategy.

SJ City Mining Machinery Equipment Factory currently mainly targets the domestic market.

However, the early 1990s was a blowout period for the development of the domestic mining industry.

There are almost dozens of such mining machinery and equipment factories all over the country, and there are probably at least three or five in every province.

Under such circumstances, the SJ City Mining Machinery Equipment Factory, which originally relied on the domestic market for food, was naturally hit the hardest.

Although your SJ City Mining Machinery Equipment Factory has a large scale and good product quality in China, your price is also high.

In the domestic competitive environment, quality and price are equally important. When the quality is not too bad, everyone pays more attention to whether the product price is low or not.

In Zhao Guoyang's view, if the mining machinery and equipment factory in SJ City does a good job, adjusts its product structure, and works hard in the direction of "high-tech and sophisticated" to break through the international market, it will still have a lot to do.

Although compared with heavy machinery giants such as JCB and Kubota, the production capacity and technical level of SJ Mining Machinery Equipment Factory are far behind.

However, in regions with relatively backward economies such as Latin America and Africa, there may not be no room for survival.

Speaking of which, the level of heavy machinery industry in Latin America and Africa is much worse than that in China. With the current level of SJ City Mining Machinery Equipment Factory, it is enough to expand their market.

Originally, Zhao Guoyang had already thought about the path that the SJ City Mining Machinery Equipment Factory should take after the acquisition was completed.

Who would have thought that Cheng Yaojin would come out halfway.

The sudden emergence of a company from Bangziguo wanted to get involved, which made Zhao Guoyang quite upset.

To be honest, in the early 1990s, Bangziguo's advantages in construction machinery were not obvious compared with domestic companies.

Zhao Guoyang reckoned that the only ones who had ideas about SJ Mining Machinery Equipment Factory were Doosan Group and Hyundai Engineering Machinery Group, two well-known industrial enterprises.

But if they succeed in the acquisition, Bangziguo may become a strong opponent of domestic construction machinery in the future given the current trend of rapid development of the domestic industrial level.

Thinking up to this point, Zhao Guoyang has secretly made up his mind that no matter how much it costs, he will try to save the SJ City Mining Machinery Equipment Factory.

...

In a blink of an eye, a week passed.

This week after returning from a business trip in Yangcheng, Zhao Guoyang had a rare few days of leisure.

On Friday, Zhao Guoyang asked for leave early with Director Mu, drove in the afternoon, and set off for SJ City.

Mu Aijun is basically responsive to Zhao Guoyang's requests now.

He knew Zhao Guoyang's ability, and he also knew that this young man would definitely not only have a career in Hongda Machinery Factory in the future.

Instead of restricting him and making him renounce his own factory, it is better to let him be free, as long as he can not forget about the factory, he will be fine!
