Reborn Industrial Tycoon

Zhou Fulai looked at a contract for linen car seat cushions in his hand and looked very embarrassed.

"Director Zhao, you promised me before that you could earn at least one million U.S. dollars in foreign exchange from exporting linen car seat cushions, so I approved a foreign exchange quota of 100,000 U.S. dollars for you to buy imported equipment. What happened?

"Just bring me this little thing?" Zhou Fulai asked, pointing to the contract.

"Didn't I also sign for two thousand sets of car seat cushions?" Director Zhao from the opposite side said.

Zhou Fulai snorted coldly: "What was the price of two thousand sets of linen car seat cushions last year? That was fifty-eight thousand US dollars! But what is the price in your contract? Nineteen thousand two hundred US dollars! The difference is almost four

It’s worth 10,000 US dollars!”

"Isn't it because the market is not good this year? Other exhibitors are also lowering their prices. If I don't follow the price reduction, I'm afraid I won't be able to sell any of them!" Director Zhao said.

"What about the one hundred thousand U.S. dollars our bureau approved to you? I don't ask you to earn one million U.S. dollars in foreign exchange for me through exports. You just need to earn back the one hundred thousand U.S. dollars in capital." Zhou Fulai said.

"Well, it depends on the specific situation." Director Zhao said hesitantly.

"Depends on the specific situation? What do you mean? You can't even sell it for 100,000 US dollars!" Zhou Fulai asked angrily.

"The plan can't keep up with the changes! At the Canton Fair in the first half of the year, Americans alone bought 3.5 million US dollars of goods. But who would have thought that at this Canton Fair, Americans didn't buy a single thing! This American is

They are the biggest buyers of linen car seat cushions. If they don’t buy, the cushions won’t be able to sell as much!” Factory Director Zhao explained.

"So, the one hundred thousand US dollars in foreign exchange from our Foreign Trade Bureau has been wasted?" Zhou Fulai had a trace of anger in his eyes.

"Director Zhou, you can't say that. I got these 100,000 US dollars in exchange for RMB from the foreign exchange market! Our factory also made real money!" Director Zhao looked like he was playing rogue.

"Do I care about your hundreds of thousands of RMB!" Zhou Fulai's breathing became rapid and he said loudly: "What I want is US dollars and foreign exchange!"

Not only Zhou Fulai, but others who came to the exhibition with linen car seat cushions also realized that without orders from Wal-Mart, the Canton Fair would definitely be losing money.

The key to producing linen car seat cushions is imported knitting machines. Buying imported knitting machines requires foreign exchange. If these 70,000 to 80,000 US dollars are invested, the final product will only sell for 10,000 to 20,000 US dollars. That is a big loss!

If the loss is in RMB, it is acceptable, but if the loss is in US dollars, this is really painful.

The country has been running trade deficits for years, and foreign exchange is so precious that even a national-level enterprise cannot easily explain to its superiors if it loses tens of thousands of dollars in foreign exchange.

Moreover, due to price wars among exhibitors, linen car seat cushions have fallen below the cost price, and exhibitors need to sell more quantities in order to earn back the initial foreign exchange investment.

It can be said that these plagiarizing exhibitors have not only left three monks without food, but also lost their wives and soldiers.

This situation occurred for the first time at the Canton Fair.

Whatever sold well at the past Canton Fair, similar products will flock to the next Canton Fair. Everyone will eat together. Even if the rice turns into soup, everyone will have to take a bite.

But this time, Li Weidong made a living by selling linen car seat cushions. When others came to take a share of the soup with bowls and chopsticks, they found that there was no soup left.

However, those exhibitors did not realize that the reason why Li Weidong was able to eat meat was because he constantly introduced new products and came up with new products that the market needed.

Those exhibitors have not given up their previous strategies. Since wool car seat cushions can earn foreign exchange, then copy the answer!

When I bring out the same product at the next Canton Fair, I will naturally get a share of the pie.

…

"I just saw that Ma Dexing has returned to the office area now. Let's take this opportunity to talk to Director Li and ask him about the manufacturer of the new softener."

As he spoke, Lao Hu took out a bag of Huazi from his arms, looked at the quantity inside, and smiled: "That's enough, enough for us to talk about."

"You only have half a pack of Zhonghua, and you still expect to talk nonsense! Look, I have some good stuff here." Lao Zhang said, taking out a box of Panda cigarettes from his bag.

"Hey, panda, this thing is a rare thing. Where did you get it?" Lao Hu said with a greedy look on his face.

"I got it last time I went to the capital for a meeting. It was a special supply. There was only one pack. I kept it and couldn't bear to smoke it!" Lao Zhang pointed to the words "special supply" on the cigarette box.

"Why waste such good cigarettes? Director Li is just a young man. I can fool him by just saying a few words!" Lao Hu stared at the pack of Panda cigarettes and then said: "Old Zhang, in a moment

Share it with me and try it!"

Lao Zhang nodded: "Okay, if you can ask where you bought the new softener, I will give you one."

While the two were talking, they found Li Weidong.

"Director Li, you are busy!" Lao Hu and Lao Zhang walked over with smiles on their faces.

"I'm not busy. I've already won a big order from Wal-Mart. My task for today is considered completed. I'll go back to the guest house in a while." Li Weidong replied.

"Why are we going back to the guest house instead of taking a stroll in Yangcheng? There are a lot of delicious food in this city!" Lao Hu asked with a smile.

Li Weidong smiled shyly: "I am not familiar with this place, and I don't know where to find delicious food."

"I know a Taiye Chicken that has been around since the Qing Dynasty. The taste is absolutely unique, right on the road to civilization." Lao Zhang said, took out the box of Panda cigarettes, shook the box deliberately, and then took out a cigarette.

Gen handed it to Li Weidong.

"Come on, Director Li, have a cigarette."

"Blue Panda, good stuff. You can't buy this cigarette even if you have money. I have to try it." Li Weidong immediately took the cigarette.

"Blue panda? Uh, this cigarette box is blue." Lao Zhang was slightly startled, looked at the color of the cigarette box, and thought to himself, I am not color blind!

Only then did Li Weidong realize that he had said something wrong.

Panda cigarettes in this era were still packaged in blue. It was not until 1990, when China hosted the Asian Games, that yellow pandas appeared.

At that time, it was because the supply of raw materials for Blue Panda was insufficient. In order to ensure the supply of cigarettes for the Asian Games, the Tobacco Bureau produced a batch of cigarettes with a formula higher than that of China but lower than that of Blue Panda. This batch of cigarettes was packaged in yellow, which is yellow.

panda.

In the 1980s, the output of blue pandas was very small. There were only ten boxes a year on Hong Kong Island, which could not be supplied normally, so the blue pandas at that time were all specially supplied.

Li Weidong quickly lit a cigarette to cover up his embarrassment. He lit the cigarette and took a deep breath. The taste was indeed different from the panda cigarettes of later generations.

"How's it going, Director Li? Is this good cigarette?" Lao Zhang opened his mouth and asked.

"Good smoke!" Li Weidong nodded. The taste of the Blue Panda from the 1980s is really impeccable.

Lao Zhang looked at Lao Hu and said to himself, I will look at you next!

Lao Hu nodded, leaned forward, and said: "Director Li is really young and promising. At the last Canton Fair, he got an order of 3.5 million from Wal-Mart, and this time it is even more

I kept working hard and got an order worth four million US dollars, which is amazing!"

"I'm just lucky." Li Weidong chuckled.

Lao Hu then put a high hat on Li Weidong, saying to himself that young people like this can be carefree and carefree, and they will say whatever they ask when the time comes.

Lao Hu kept praising Li Weidong, and finally talked about the softener.

"The new softener used in your wool car seat cushion should be difficult to buy, right?" Lao Hu asked.

"It's not difficult to buy. You can go directly to the manufacturer and pay the money to get the goods. However, the production capacity of the chemical plant is not very large. If you want a lot of goods, you may have to wait a day or two before they can be produced." Li Weidong said and vomited.

Made a smoke ring.

"A good product needs to be refined. It's understandable even if the production capacity is small." Lao Hu then asked: "Since Director Li purchases goods from this chemical factory, then this chemical factory should not be far from your place, right?"

"Not far, not far at all. This chemical plant is right in our Qinghe!" Li Weidong said with a smile.

Lao Hu and Lao Zhang looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of joy in each other's eyes. How many chemical plants could there be in a small Qinghe suddenly narrowed the scope a lot, and it was easy to find them.

Lao Hu's mind was spinning rapidly, and he began to think about how to phrase it next, but Li Weidong took the initiative and said: "The manufacturer of this new type of softener is a small chemical factory in Qinghe. The name of this chemical factory is Shen Futun Chemical Factory."

"Shenfutun? Is it a place name?" Old Hu came to ask.

Lao Zhang said: "Tuen? It doesn't feel like a very big place, it feels like a village."

Li Weidong nodded: "Director Zhang really guessed it right. This Shenfutun is a village, and the Shenfutun Chemical Plant is a village-run enterprise."

"Director Li, please stop joking with us. I've seen that wool cushion of yours. The softener used is definitely at the leading level in the country. Can a village-run enterprise produce that kind of thing?" Lao Hu said.

said.

"Director Hu, don't underestimate me. My garment factory is also a tertiary industry, and it also earns 4 million in foreign exchange from exports!"

Li Weidong said, took out a few business cards from his arms, distributed them to everyone, and then said: "This business card has the address and contact information of Shenfutun Chemical Plant. If you don't believe it, you can ask in person."

Lao Zhang took the business card and read the text on it: "Li Weidong, deputy director and sales manager of Shenfutun Chemical Plant. Director Li, the deputy director of this chemical plant is still yours!"

"Yes, not only are we related to each other, but we are also very familiar! We are so familiar that we even have the same name." Li Weidong said with a smile.

"There is such a coincidence!" Lao Zhang looked at the business card again and continued: "It is fate to meet someone with the same name and surname as me! But if you think about it carefully, it is normal. People with the surname Li are originally

There are many people named Weidong, and there are probably tens of thousands of people named Li Weidong in the country!"

"Yes, this Li Weidong and I still live together, sleeping on the same bed at night." Li Weidong continued.

Lao Zhang finally understood what was going on: "Director Li, are you the Li Weidong on your business card?"

Li Weidong nodded: "Yes, this is my business card. The new softener you are looking for is produced by me. Two leaders, if you want to purchase new softener, you can call the phone number on this card.

Although the price of this kind of softener produced by our factory is a little more expensive, it is of good quality! Whether it is ordinary fabric or natural wool, as long as you use our softener, it will definitely be soft, smooth and comfortable to the touch.

That's called comfort!

By using our softener, the friction between the fabric and the equipment can be greatly reduced, thereby avoiding excessive consumption of the equipment and avoiding fabric damage and defects caused by mutual friction."

Li Weidong suddenly turned into a salesman again and began to sell softener to Lao Zhang and others.

…

Ten minutes later, Lao Zhang and Lao Hu were walking side by side on their way back to the office area. Both of them had a business card of Li Weidong in their hands.

"Lao Hu, are we being tricked by this Li Weidong?" Lao opened his mouth and asked.

"It probably doesn't count." Lao Hu shook his head guiltily: "At least let's ask where the new softener is obtained from."

"But that posture just now is obviously him trying to sell us, right?" Lao Zhang said, pointing to the business card in his hand, and continued:

"Didn't you say that this young man is easy to fool? But why do I feel that we were fooled by him? Now that I think about it, it seems that he is waiting for us to come to our door so that he can sell us the softener!"
