Chapter 179: That's what makes a good price cheap
Liu Na came back from ordering good food, and everyone began to talk about some topics of wind and snow. After a while, the wine and food were all sent in, Liu Na poured wine for Han Weichang and He Ji'an, and the two men began to "walk one" with each other. He Ji'an congratulated Han Weichang on his ascension, and Han Weichang congratulated He Ji'an on climbing the high branches, everyone made a look of being extremely happy for each other, and all kinds of disdain in their hearts did not need to be detailed.
Between pushing the glass and changing the lamp, a bottle of liquor had gone down three-quarters of the way, and everyone slowed down the speed of drinking, and began to chat with the strength of the wine. Of course, who would really be idle enough to gossip?
"So, Lao He, you came to Luping this time for Luping Machinery Factory, right?" Han Weichang didn't go around in circles, and directly poked the core of the problem.
"Old Han, you're also here for this, right?" He Ji'an asked rhetorically, which could be regarded as answering Han Weichang's question.
Han Weichang asked: "Aren't you engaged in technology, how can you start sales?"
He Ji'an pretended to sigh and said: "Who asked me to go to a foreign-funded enterprise? Foreign-funded enterprises are not like our state-owned enterprises. I went to this Korean company, and I wanted to use one person as three people, I was not only a technical manager, but also a sales manager, and I also had to be an after-sales manager. Otherwise, why are foreign countries so rich, and the efficiency of others is not comparable to us. ”
Han Weichang ignored He Ji'an's fork and continued to ask, "How many people are there in this company you are staying in?"
He Ji'an said casually: "It's not big, it's just more than 5,000 people." ”
"There are more than 5,000 people?" Han Weichang was taken aback, and then said in surprise: "Since there are so many people, how can you be allowed to do both technology and sales?"
He Ji'an hesitated for a while, and then realized that he had forgotten to make a draft of the bragging, and there was a contradiction before and after. "I was talking about the number of people at the company's headquarters," he said. The headquarters of the company I went to was called Daehan Dongyuan Machine Tool Co., Ltd., which is one of the top three large companies in Korea. Our company is called Dahan Dongyuan Machine Tool, parentheses China, Co., Ltd., which only entered China last year, and the current number of people is not too much, that is, ...... Only a few hundred people. ”
"South Korea's top three large companies......" Han Weichang quickly recalled the information he knew in his mind, but he couldn't remember such a company.
Since he was transferred to the sales department as a deputy director, Han Weichang has been actively learning all kinds of sales-related knowledge, and the list of world-renowned enterprises is naturally the scope of his learning. A South Korean machine tool company with more than 5,000 people, it is impossible not to be within the scope of his understanding, think about it, how many people are there in South Korea?
If this is a non-mechanical enterprise, such as a supermarket, a TV company or something, Han Weichang has never heard of it. As a machinery company, but also a machine tool company, how could Han Weichang not know?
"You just said that your company is mainly a grinder?" Han Weichang asked tentatively again.
He Ji'an was stunned for a moment, and then his tone was a little uncertain, and he said vaguely: "The company's current entry into the Chinese market is mainly the grinding machine business. Over there in the Korean headquarters, there must be all kinds of machine tools, and the Koreans' things, hum, can they be the same as us?"
Han Weichang picked up the wine glass, signaled to He Ji'an, and then slowly sipped the wine, pondering He Ji'an's words, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there were flaws. South Korea's machine tool industry can be regarded as the number one in the world, but it does not belong to South Korea's pillar industry, and the system is not complete. South Korea's lathes, milling machines, and press machines have a certain strength, while grinding machines are relatively weak.
He Ji'an claimed that their company is mainly a grinder, and it is one of the top three large enterprises in South Korea, which is problematic. If this company is not actually focusing on grinding machines, but on its Chinese company, it is also unreasonable, how can a multinational company use its own weak products to develop overseas?
Coupled with Mr. Ho's claim that his Chinese company has hundreds of people, but he himself wears many hats, Mr. Han is almost certain that he is bragging. It should be true that he defected to a Korean machine tool company, but there are absolutely no 5,000 people in this company, and there are definitely not a few hundred in its Chinese company. It is estimated that it is a small company in South Korea, and it is very difficult to have dozens of people on hand to go to China to pan for gold, so talents like He Ji'an will be reused in the company.
Thinking of this, Han Weichang asked with a smile: "So, Lao He, have you made contact with Lu Ji?"
"Got in touch. He Ji'an said, "This morning I also met with their deputy director in charge of technology, he is very interested in our grinding machine, just waiting for the meeting to discuss, you can sign a contract with us." ”
"You said yes, Huang Shunlin?" asked Han Weichang.
He Ji'an nodded: "That's right, it's him." ”
"But ......," Liu Na couldn't help but want to interject. She wanted to say that Han Weichang and she had been here for three days and asked to see this Huang Shunlin, but Lu Ji's office claimed that he had gone to the provincial capital for a meeting and had not returned, so how could He Ji'an see him?
Han Weichang stopped Liu Na, and then asked, "Didn't Lao Huang say that he was also interested in our machine tools?"
"Not really. He Ji'an said, "We have been talking about Dongyuan grinding machine, and he didn't mention a word about your grinding machine." Old Han, if you don't like to hear something, who else is willing to buy a domestic machine tool with an imported machine tool in front of you?"
"Lao He, what you said is too absolute, right?" Han Weichang said, "You often make machine tools, and no one wants your machine tools?"
He Ji'an smiled shamefully: "That is, some old customers can still buy a few units every three forks, or the kind of low-end goods that foreigners are unwilling to produce, and the regular machine can't last long." Originally, the price of machine tools in Japan and Germany was high, and our domestic enterprises could not afford it, so factories like our Changji and your Linyi machine could still have a little way to live.
But in the past two years, Korean machine tools have come. Let me tell you, the Korean machine tool is called a good quality and low price, and the price is higher than the domestic machine tool, but the quality is not comparable to our horse. Think about it, with Korean machine tools, how many days can our domestic machine tools live?"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Na's face became extremely ugly. Nima, what kind of words is this, why can't our domestic machine tools survive? It's great that you defect to a Korean company! She muttered MMP in her heart, but it was inconvenient to say it, after all, He Ji'an was a friend of Han Weichang, and it was not her turn to speak on this occasion.
Han Weichang remained silent, he asked He Ji'an: "So, Lao He, in your opinion, I have to change jobs quickly?"
He Ji'an said proudly: "Let's do this, Lao Han, we have been friends for so many years, so I will take the liberty to persuade you." Whether you're the section chief or the section chief, it's not interesting to be inappropriate. The wisest thing to do now is to go ahead. With your old Han's ability, you can find a foreign-funded company to do it, and you can make more money than me. These days, everything is fake, only money is real, don't you say?"
"Well, I'll have to figure it out. Han Weichang pretended to be serious. He has a lot of things on his mind now, and he doesn't bother to bother with this pretend.
He Ji'an also realized that he had gone a little too far, friendship is friendship, and this kind of talk is better to the point. He smiled and picked up his wine glass and said to Han Weichang: "Haha, I just drank a few more glasses, just say it casually, for your reference, old Han." Come on, let's go another ......"
After that, everyone stopped talking about work again, and talked to each other about children, prices, decoration and other topics. At the end of the meal, the two sides exchanged business cards and went back to the hotel where they were staying.
After leaving He Ji'an and walking for a while, Liu Na came to Han Weichang's side and said in a low voice: "Minister Han, I think this He Ji'an is bragging, right?"
"What are you bragging?" asked Han Weichang.
Liu Na said: "Director Huang of Luji obviously went to the province for a meeting, and he also said that he had met with Director Huang, isn't this bragging?"
Han Weichang sneered: "Did we see that Huang Shunlin went to the province for a meeting?"
"......," Liu Na was stunned, "you mean, he deliberately didn't see us?"
Han Weichang said with a dark face: "It's hard to say, we have to find someone to inquire whether this surnamed Huang is in Luping, and in addition, has he seen He Ji'an." ”
It is relatively easy to inquire about the whereabouts of a factory director. Previously, Han Weichang and Liu Na didn't think about the possibility that Huang Shunlin was still in Luping, and after listening to the excuse of the Luji office, they believed it, so they didn't deliberately seek verification. But hearing He Ji'an say that he had already met Huang Shunlin, Han Weichang couldn't calm down.
He asked Liu Na to pretend to be a salesman from another unit, and went to Luji to find a few soy sauce workers to ask, only to know that Huang Shunlin had actually returned from the province the first day, and Luji's office told them this morning that Huang Shunlin was in the province, which was obviously deliberately snubbing them.
After learning about this situation, Han Weichang did not dare to delay, and contacted the personnel of the Deer Machinery Technology Department. As soon as I inquired, they said that Director Huang had indeed sent a few grinding machine materials to the technical department for evaluation, and these materials were from a company called "Dahan Dongwon".
He Ji'an didn't lie, Lu Ji really wanted to buy South Korean machine tools. Han Weichang said, "He and He Ji'an have talked about it, so he doesn't want to see us." ”
"Then what should we do?" Liu Na was a little crazy, she couldn't imagine that the bullish He Ji'an really robbed them of their business. Thinking of He Ji'an's warning, Liu Na felt that the whole person was not good, and the future was bleak.
Han Weichang said: "No, this matter has to be reported to Director Tang immediately." This is not a trivial matter, let's go back to Linhe immediately. ”
