174. Raise five million
in a conference room.
Several middle-aged people in cadre uniforms sat on one side of the conference platform, and on the seven or eight chairs opposite them, only one person sat there.
"Comrade Fuguo, let's take a look at this information first. β
Liao Fuguo's face was happy, just a few days after they raised the sponsorship fee, several bigwigs of the sports committee summoned him alone, what this means is self-evident.
I couldn't help but sigh secretly, thinking that the dust had finally settled.
"The leadership has worked hard. β
Liao Fuguo took the information with a smile, but after taking it in his hand and looking at it, the smile on his face suddenly froze.
"Jianlibao's application materials?"
What does this have to do with them?
"Comrade Fuguo, you can talk about it after you finish reading. β
Liao Fuguo nodded, he had an extremely bad premonition, his brows were tightly locked, and he patiently looked at it line by line, and when he saw the words "sponsorship cost of five million", the whole person was fixed there.
"5 million? How is that possible?"
Facing his incredulous gaze, a leader said in a deep voice, "To be honest, when we first read this material, our expression was similar to what you are now, but the reality is that this material was personally sent by the representative of the other party, and we have repeatedly confirmed with him that there is no problem with the amount, which is five million." β
"But, how did they get it?" Liao Fuguo was dumbfounded, "As far as I know, this Jianlibao soda factory has just been put into operation, and it hasn't even started sales, and its background is still a unit affiliated with the collective, how can it have this kind of strength?"
Five million in cash, Rao is that they can't easily take out the Arctic Ocean soda factory, and what kind of unit are they?
National brand factory!
The leading enterprise in the national beverage industry!
"To be honest, in fact, we have raised similar questions, but the other party represents a calm and relaxed look. It's impossible for us to get to the bottom of how the other party came up with so much money, it's not our responsibility. So ......"
Liao Fuguo finally understood the purpose of letting him come over today.
Five million, if they are really ruthless in the Arctic Ocean soda factory, they will not be unable to take it. But what is the concept of five million?
At present, among domestic beverages, Arctic Ocean is a well-deserved sales champion, Rao is so, and their annual net profit last year was only about 2 million.
In fact, they are already very willing to invest, and plan to use a whole year's revenue to fight for an opportunity to promote the Olympics.
But the amount of five million is too scary, which is equivalent to more than two years of their revenue.
Can an Olympic promotion in just half a month bring such a big benefit?
Liao Fuguo was deeply skeptical.
No matter how you look at it, it's a loss-making deal.
Of course, he certainly couldn't say that. To help the national Olympic cause, there can be no loss.
"Leaders, I still don't believe that Jianlibao Soda Factory can come up with a huge sum of 5 million. After all, they are an affiliated unit, have you considered that there may be anything wrong with this?"
"What's the trick?" a leader frowned and asked, "Do they still dare to joke about this kind of thing? If this is the case, there will be no need for their factory to exist." β
"That's a good thing to say. Liao Fuguo said: "But if the other party is really trying his best to raise money on the surface, but in the end he didn't make it up in desperation, the hard work and sincerity are all there, and the government is probably not easy to do, right?"
"I just looked at it, and what the other party promised was that all the sponsorship funds would be in place before the Olympic team went abroad. But when the time comes, even if they don't put it in place, how can the sports committee have time to deal with this aspect again?
"In the most likely case, they will only be able to use their drinks, which they will definitely arrange in advance. β
When several leaders heard this, they couldn't help frowning, and they had to admit that what the other party said made some sense.
And logically speaking, Jianlibao Soda Factory does not have the ability to come up with five million, and it is difficult to say whether it will really be bold enough to use this trick.
"So the sponsorship fee of five million is unacceptable to you in the Arctic Ocean?" asked the leader in the center.
"I'm sorry to accept that this fee will empty the factory. Liao Fuguo shook his head.
"Okay, that's it. β
"That leader, Jianlibao's matter ......"
"We have our own arrangements. β
After this conversation, another special meeting was held within the Sports Committee.
The leaders expressed their opinions.
It is true that no one has questioned Jianlibao from the advantages of the drink itself, they have also drunk the drink, and the feedback from the athletes is quite good, this drink seems to really bring them certain benefits.
And the sponsorship fee of 5 million cannot be refused by the Sports Commission and the ministry.
Now the question is, can this fee be paid?
If you are played by one of the other party's affiliated units, it is simply ridiculous and generous.
So the final result of the discussion was: give yourself leeway, give the other party a deadline - a month and a half.
In other words, if Jianlibao Soda Factory can cash in the promised 5 million sponsorship fee within a month and a half, then the beverage sponsor of the Olympic delegation belongs to them.
On the contrary, if it is not cashed, the sports committee will make other arrangements.
The news quickly spread internally, and the major sports departments in the capital, as well as sponsorship applicants from all over the country, were all shocked.
No one could have imagined that this little-known Jianlibao Soda Factory would come from behind, defeating a number of industry leaders, including the Arctic Ocean Soda Factory, in one fell swoop, and directly locking in the quota of beverage sponsors for the Olympic delegation.
But at the same time, the sponsorship fee of 5 million also shocked everyone to die.
Almost no one believed that Jianlibao Soda Factory could come up with this money in just one and a half months.
So even if this news has been proven true, the representatives of the major soda factories still hold their ground, because they still have a chance.
Of course, they thought so.
β¦β¦
In the express train from the capital to Hedong.
Guo Yongkun was lying on the hard wooden bed, with his hands behind his head, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
Things deviated a little from what he thought, but when you think about it, it makes sense.
"A month and a half ......," he muttered.
The time was so short that he felt a kind of uncertainty in his heart.
After all, it is a full five million, and even if this money is placed in twenty or thirty years, it is not a small amount for a factory that has just started, and it is not difficult to raise it in such a short period of time.
But he has no way out, the difficulty is proportional to the benefit, the quota of the Olympic team's beverage sponsor is already beckoning to him, as long as he can get the five million, no one can take it away.
The only way to fight is to fight.
After the train arrived in Hedong, he didn't even return home and went straight to the factory.
"What? How much are we going to sponsor?"
In the factory director's office, after listening to Guo Yongkun's general description, Lao Wang almost didn't jump up from the sofa.
And a middle-aged woman sitting opposite - this is the treasurer of the factory, Tang Yuhong. Now 48 years old, before retiring, he was an accountant in a large state-owned factory in the city, and was attracted by Lao Wang to return to his post with high-tech and high-tech talents. I almost didn't get paralyzed.
"5 million, you heard it right. β
After receiving Guo Yongkun's affirmative reply, Lao Wang and Tang Yuhong looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.
"Yongkun, this, it's too much, right?"
"So I'm not back to raise money. β
"But 5 million, where are we going to raise it?" Lao Wang swallowed with difficulty.
"Factory director, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. At this time, Tang Yuhong hesitated.
Guo Yongkun glanced at her and said with a smile: "Aunt Hong doesn't need to be so restrained, if you have anything to say, just say it directly." β
At present, there are nearly 400 people in the factory, and most of the middle-level and above leaders Guo Yongkun have also been contacted, but the level is really uneven.
Not to mention the seriousness of work, the professionalism is also very high, many things do not need him to instruct, the other party will always rush to hand over the report or materials to him before the hand.
If you can do your part well, in the work you are responsible for, and think of the leader in front of everything, that is the real good employee.
For such a person, Guo Yongkun is not stingy, and gives her 180 yuan of new capital per month, and a bonus at the end of the year. It is said that his husband has a chronic illness, and if he wants to come to this treatment comparable to that of a university professor, it should be a good relief for the family pressure.
Tang Yuhong nodded and said: "The Olympic Games are certainly a good advertising opportunity, but from the perspective of finance and accounting, I personally don't agree with spending 5 million to buy this kind of opportunity." I have made some understanding, and the second beverage factory with the best sales volume in the province has a net profit of about 1 million last year.
"After all, our factory has just started, and if we assume that under the publicity of the Olympic Games, this year's sales volume can be the same as that of the second factory, then it will take five years to recover the investment, but I don't think that our factory can support it for five years under the premise of huge debt. β
Guo Yongkun laughed, thinking that he really didn't see the wrong person.
The advice given by the other party is very pertinent, according to common sense, if an affiliated unit is burdened with a debt of five million, it is indeed difficult to survive.
But he and Jianlibao can't live with common sense.
"Aunt Hong, your suggestion is very good, I hope that if you have any ideas in the future, don't have any scruples and speak out boldly. But this time, you underestimated the impact of the Olympics and the audience of Jianlibao.
"Your assumption is that we will next have the same sales volume as the second factory, with an annual income of one million yuan, but what if our annual revenue reaches two million, three million, or even five million?
Tang Yuhong was surprised, "There can be so many?"
This revenue situation is not Guo Yongkun casually said, after Jianlibao became famous in the Los Angeles Olympics in the previous life, the net profit reached 3.5 million that year.
In fact, it only took half a year.
Li Jinwei does have his merits, but he Guo Yongkun carries the crystallization of the future society for decades in his mind, and it will not be bad.
"I can assure you that this year, we will be the largest beverage business in the province. β
Tang Yuhong looked at the young man in front of him and read two words from his faceβconfidence and calmness. It's really hard to imagine how he can have such a great ability at his age.
When she entered the factory, she knew that a huge factory had been built entirely by their young factory director, which was a miracle feat.
And now, he does not hesitate to spend five million to make an advertisement, and he is full of confidence, and it does not seem to be hasty. Such courage and calmness are the only things she has ever seen in her life, even in those department-level factory leaders, she has never seen them.
"Okay, let's talk about money. β
Guo Yongkun restrained his smile and said, "Aunt Hong, what is your relationship with the banking units in the city?"
"I can't talk about any deep friendships, but I used to go to the bank at work and walked around a lot, and I knew some people. β
"No, Yongkun. Guo Yongkun was about to say something, but Lao Wang interrupted and said suspiciously: "Are you going to borrow from the bank?"
"Otherwise, you have a better way?"
Lao Wang smiled awkwardly, he naturally didn't.
"But the key is that with the situation of our factory, even if we borrow from the bank, it is impossible to borrow five million!"
To be honest, Lao Wang panicked when he heard the word "loan", because the loan is interest-bearing, just like the ghost brother's business, and in the end, what if people can't pay back the money?
Brother Ghost is not a good stubble, and it is not uncommon to see examples of forcibly selling other people's property. And most of the things are sold, not counting, they have to be beaten.
He would rather Guo Yongkun think of other ways to make a fortune abroad like last time. Regardless of whether it is improper or not, it is still clean money to get it back to China.
There is no mistake
