Chapter 207: Different Pursuits
After the board of directors reached a consensus, the remaining issue was to deal with the current cord fabric branch and at the same time start to investigate the auto parts project.
For the cord fabric branch, Guan Yuntian wanted to shut it down, but the board members felt that it was a pity, after all, ready-made equipment, ready-made production management, ready-made market and users, although the product profit is indeed relatively low, but whoever takes it can achieve seamless docking to continue to operate, such a project is not without value, and finally, everyone agreed that the cord fabric project should be transferred.
That being said, it's another thing to actually do it. In a sense, the handling of cord fabric projects is much more complicated than the research of auto parts projects! Because it is not so easy to find a suitable buyer.
Before the end of the meeting, Guan Yuntian called on all board members to inquire if they have the opportunity to see if there are any buyers interested in the cord fabric project.
Of course, there are many people who are interested in the transfer of ready-made production projects, but it is difficult to find units that have the strength to accept them.
I really can't remember who is the right buyer in his circle of friends, Guan Yuntian had to ask friends in the financial industry to help, these friends learned that Changda Group wanted to transfer their normal business projects to the outside world, they all felt incredible, "The product has a market, and the project is very good, why should it be transferred?"
"At this time, when the enterprise develops to a certain stage, there are different pursuits, and the transfer of cord fabric projects is to free up energy and resources to do other better projects. It's not that this project is bad, just with its existing stable market and customers, it is incomparable to general projects. Guan Yuntian explained.
"There has to be a price, right? How much does it cost to transfer such a large project?" asked President Liu of the Agricultural Bank of China.
"Find a buyer first, find it and then negotiate the price. ”
"You've got to get an approximate price, or I won't be able to help you find a buyer. ”
"Yes, otherwise, if you don't have more than 100 million financial strength, you don't have to think about it at all. Guan Yuntian just said casually.
"It's not a small amount of money, there aren't many such buyers!"
"President Liu, 100 million is a conservative estimate, the equipment plant is a large number, and the intangible assets of technology and market, if you calculate it, 100 million funds are definitely not enough, you first help me find a target, and then sit down and talk about it after I have the intention to buy a buyer." If you can't find a strong buyer, you can also consider leasing to the outside world. ”
Guan Yuntian believes that once the auto parts project is started, there is really no energy to take care of the cord fabric, so even if the way of leasing and operation is adopted, this piece must be thrown out.
In addition to President Liu of the Agricultural Bank of China, President Sun of the Rural Commercial Bank, President Ren of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and friends of the China Construction Bank and the City Commercial Bank, Guan Yuntian greeted them and asked them to help find buyers.
According to Guan Yuntian's plan, as long as the cord fabric project is dealt with, he will immediately return to Changda Real Estate Company, after all, real estate development involves more problems, and the preparation and construction of auto parts projects will be completely responsible for Ye Jiayi.
However, the progress of things is often far from the reality, and after Guan Yuntian greeted friends in the financial world, more than ten days have passed, but there is no news at all.
About half a month later, Guan Yuntian received a call from the president of ICBC and asked him to come over for an interview.

Entering the office of the old Ren of ICBC, Guan Yuntian asked eagerly, "Have you found a buyer?"
"You sit down first! How long have we not seen each other? I don't say hello when I enter the house, I only know that I care about your affairs, it seems that in your mind, I have no place!"
"I have been too busy in the past two years, and the affairs of the group company have asked Mr. Ding to contact you, and I have indeed come to visit a little less, and I have invited President Haihan. Guan Yuntian sat down on the chair opposite President Ren.
Lao Ren made a cup of tea and put it in front of Guan Yuntian, "I know that you are very busy, you are involved in real estate, and you have developed a lot of real estate, what kind of industrial upgrading are you going to do now, when will you be idle?"
"Oh, how am I going to answer this question? I'm going to have to be completely idle, I'm afraid I'll have to retire. In fact, as long as you enter the business management industry, it is difficult to be idle, unless you want to stand still and do not seek enterprise development. "Guan Yuntian said.
Everyone is saying that doing business is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. ”
"But being so busy all day also has a disadvantage, that is, it is difficult to take care of the friendship between buddies and friends, and I am also afraid that you will be too careful!" Guan Yuntian picked up the teacup and took a small sip casually.
"I'm kidding you, are you serious? Do financial work, the most afraid of those customers who have business dealings with us, do not focus on business management, once the enterprise is at risk, the funds we lend are not safe, compared to this, between buddies drink two less meals, eat a few meals, then what is it?"
"Thank you President, we are old friends, and we can understand each other. Uh, don't you have something to talk about when you come to me? ”
"Isn't your cord fabric project going to be transferred, I have revealed the situation to some business owners, they either don't have enough funds, or just like you, they don't have the energy and can't take care of it. ”
Guan Yuntian felt that such a few words could be clearly said on the phone, so why bother to come here?" "President Ren, then you are looking for me for ......?"
"Oh, didn't you say you could also consider leasing to outsiders?"
"Yes, there are really no buyers, we can consider leasing to the outside world, who has the intention of doing so?"
"Do you remember the old Han of the Franco-German refinery that you once worked with?"
"Remember, what's wrong? Didn't he get sentenced for smuggling refined oil and the East Window incident?" Guan Yuntian didn't know why Lao Ren suddenly mentioned Lao Han.
"Two or three months ago, Lao Han completed his sentence, and now he is out. ”
"Oh, it's all out, time flies so fast! How many years did he get to be sentenced at the time?"
"It seems that he was sentenced to five years, and it is said that he did well in it, and he did some work, and he came out in about four years. ”
"What, Lao Han is looking for you, what does he want to do?" Guan Yuntian thought that Lao Han came to find Lao Ren's trouble.
"We met, and Old Han didn't know what to do, and he was quite pitiful now. Speaking of this, Lao Ren's expression was solemn.
"It's not that I lack sympathy, when he did that, I not only reminded him many times, just because I didn't agree with him smuggling refined oil, he fell out with me, and the cooperation was very good, but we made it very unhappy for this, and finally parted ways, who do you say can blame for this?" Speaking of that past, Guan Yuntian still has something to say.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"Mr. Guan, in that incident a few years ago, you have tried your best to save Lao Han, he didn't listen to your advice and insisted on going his own way, he was to blame, and he couldn't blame others. Now that he has come out of prison, judging from the situation he talked to me, Lao Han seems to have woken up, I mean, if he wants to do something, isn't your cord cloth project trying to be transferred to the outside world? If there is no buyer for the time being, if it is leased, can you see if you can ...... it?"
This made Guan Yuntian quite surprised, "What, you said that Lao Han wants to lease our cord fabric branch? Does he still have the funds? Can he afford the lease fee?"
I see that he has nothing to do, he is only in his fifties, and his whole family still expects him to support him, and if he doesn't do something, won't he be wasted? As for the money, if there is more, it is estimated that the lease fee for a year and a half can still be paid. ”
"What should I do after a year and a half? Changda Group's cord fabric branch with assets of hundreds of millions of yuan, I can't let him operate it for free, right?"
"Mr. Guan, your cord fabric company has been operating normally, and the market is ready-made, no matter who rents or buys, that is the state of moving in with a bag, as long as you continue to produce, there will be profits, are you afraid that he will not be able to get the lease fee after a year and a half?"
"Even if the lease fee is not a problem, the key is that with Lao Han's management level and his unflattering professionalism, I think he will not be able to make money at all if he hands over the cord fabric project to Lao Han to operate. "Guan Yuntian said.
"You can make a profit in your business, why can't Lao Han make money from his business?" Lao Ren felt that Guan Yuntian still had prejudices against Lao Han.
"President Ren, it's not that I look down on Lao Han, do you know how fine our management is? That kind of management level is one of the best in the country, Lao Han can't do it. In addition, Changda Group's cord fabric products do have a ready-made market and customers, but we are to give users a preferential policy of 5 to 10 percent of the profit to maintain the relationship with the market and customers.
"Mr. Guan, I admit that Lao Han's management level is not high, but he can copy the business method adopted by Changda Group now, why can't he do it?"
The logical relationship here is this, the reason why Changda Group dares to give five to ten percent of the profit to customers, and the company can still maintain profitability, is because of the high level of management, so that the product cost is at the lowest level in the country. In order to keep the market, he must make profits to users, the cost has risen, and then to give profits to users, his products will inevitably lose; to ensure profits, you can't give profits to users, then, losing the market is expected. Guan Yuntian analyzed.
Lao Ren understood this time, he patted his head, "Ouch, it seems that I think things are simple! After your analysis, I think it is very reasonable, even if Lao Han learns the lessons of the past and works hard to do business, his management ability cannot reach the level of Changda Group, the cost of products cannot be reduced, and profits and markets are impossible to talk about." ”
"Therefore, I do not agree to lease the cord fabric project to Lao Han to operate. In fact, I also deeply sympathize with his situation, but I can't help him in this way, otherwise, it would be a trivial matter for Changda Group to suffer a little loss, and I am afraid that it will hurt him. ”
