Chapter 19 Journey to Yuzhou
Han Hao saw the other party, and the other party also recognized him, it seems that the world is really small. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Hushan car god Han Hao!"
Someone came to speak first, it seems that Han Hao's title of "Tiger Mountain Car God" is quite loud.
"Longhu Zhengnan!"
Han Hao also recognized the person as the Honda King rider who had raced together before.
The two sides had different hard sleepers in the same carriage, and after seeing Han Hao, Zheng Nan changed berths with others and came to the opposite side of Han Hao.
To be honest, this is the first time Han Hao has gone far away, and the Wang Erbao he leads is more experienced than him. Yuzhou is the land of Bashu, Wang Erbao's hometown is here, and taking Wang Erbao back is also regarded as having a local guide.
When he went out to meet his fellow countrymen, he met old acquaintances in other places, anyway, Zheng Nan followed Han Hao and Wang Erbao to mix together, so as to pass the 39 hours of travel time.
After a brief introduction, Han Hao learned that Zheng Nan was actually the deputy director of the Qianjiang factory, and this time he went to Yuzhou on an errand. What exactly is he doing, Han Hao is not good at inquiring about other people's trade secrets.
And Zheng Nan also learned that Han Hao actually went to Yuzhou City to promote motorcycle accessories products, and he was still a prospective college student, so he really couldn't think of each other's true identities.
Knowing that Han Hao took care of the factory because of his father's accident, Zheng Nan couldn't help but further deepen his good impression of him.
In fact, Zheng Nan also had something to do with Han Hao on this business trip, and he went to Yuzhou this time to discuss the purchase of motorcycle engines next year. The Qianjiang factory did not have its own engine, so it could only go all over the country to purchase, and it was not enough to eat with a rope around its neck.
Due to the relationship between the state-owned enterprises, the Jialing Motorcycle Factory in Yuzhou City agreed to provide 100,000 70cc engines at a high price per year after the coordination of the Zhejiang Provincial Government. In the case of short supply of motorcycles, 100,000 units next year will definitely not be enough, so the factory sent Zheng Nan to Yuzhou to negotiate, hoping to increase the supply of engines.
Originally, he was going to go to Yuzhou in the middle of next month, but he didn't expect the maintenance department to report that the parts were tight and there was no inventory, so he set off on the road in advance to solve the problem of parts supply by the way. Zheng Nan had no idea that the initiator of the parts inventory was sold out was sitting opposite him.
Zheng Nan is older than himself, so Han Hao is known as Brother Zheng, and he learned a lot of inside stories about the motorcycle industry from him.
For example, motorcycle factories have been taken as industrial pillars in various places, many enterprises are not seeking joint ventures with the Japanese A brand or the introduction of Japanese A model production, 90CC engine will be the highlight of the market next year, and many of the displacement engines between 90 and 125CC of domestic manufacturers are smuggled into the country through smuggling channels and so on.
"Once, I was introduced to Minwan Province to purchase engines, and I knew that the goods coming in by water would not be seen in the light. But the introducer repeatedly patted his chest to ensure that he was legally fine, and he took care of it when something happened. So I followed him to a beach in the early hours of the morning, and when I saw the police lights flashing everywhere, I was immediately scared and thought it was over. Guess what's going to happen next?"
After getting acquainted, Zheng Nan also began to tell some of the so-called strange things he had experienced.
"You turned the front of the car and ran away, and you didn't get caught!"
Wang Erbao was fascinated by what he heard, and hurriedly answered.
"No, we swaggered over and shipped all 5,000 engines back. Want to know why?"
Zheng Nan sold it again, Wang Erbao nodded hurriedly, and Han Hao was also interested.
"Of course, the goods from unknown sources are seized by law enforcement departments and fined and confiscated, but the confiscated goods will eventually be auctioned in accordance with the law, so the introducer is the on-site buyer of this batch of confiscated goods. On-site seizure, on-site auction, on-site release. Then he changed hands again, and in fact, the goods flowed into our factory legally, and they only had to move their mouths, and I was the one who was ultimately responsible for paying the bill. As for the relationship between the ship carrying the goods, the person who enforces the law, and the introducer who pays the bill, I don't know and don't want to figure it out. Anyway, I got back 5,000 engines legally and at a low price, and the factory also alleviated the 'heart' crisis. ”
Reading thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, Zheng Nan's true and false words made Han Hao also have a lot of insight.
"This kind of business shouldn't last long, right?"
It seems that the only thing that will lose is the national tax revenue, so the central government will definitely not ignore it, Han Hao asked out loud.
"Hehe, you're right, it's said that at the end of last month, the state organized a nationwide joint law enforcement operation, which interrupted many smuggling routes. Therefore, it seems that the engine market will be lively next year. ”
One of the main reasons why Zheng Nan was in a hurry to go to Yuzhou to discuss the engine supply agreement was that the number of engines that had been secretly sneaked into the country had dropped sharply, and there were more monks and less porridge, and the only engine production in China would definitely cause competition among manufacturers from all sides.
"Why don't you Qianjiang plant develop its own engine?"
Han Hao asked the key question.
"Alas, it's hard to put into words. ”
It is difficult for Zheng Nan to explain this problem clearly, and it is really difficult to say to outsiders that the struggle for power and profit in state-owned enterprises is really difficult to talk to outsiders. It's better to buy than to build, and there are still people in the factory who hold such a view. In fact, the factory has long proposed to develop its own engine, but the progress has been slow, and people have not been able to make a breakthrough, and the engine manufactured has not passed the verification. Especially now the products in the factory are in short supply, the benefits are passable, many cadres in the city and province have been airborne into the factory for gold plating, and the laymen lead the insiders, and no one cares about the project of propulsion engine. If it weren't for the excellent technical level, Zheng Nan would have been squeezed out of the way.
The train was running, and Han Hao was also able to appreciate the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, see the customs and customs of various places, and finally realized what kind of concept it is to have a vast territory.
As an expert, Zheng Nan also looked at the new shell that Han Hao brought out for sale, which was strong and durable, especially in the processing of process details, and asked about the price, which was very cost-effective. If you still control the purchasing department, you will definitely give priority to purchasing this batch of goods. It's a pity that since Ma Xiaotian came, the power of procurement has been sidelined, and he doesn't have much right to speak. Now if the engine is not strictly controlled in the factory, Zheng Nan has a good relationship with his counterparts in Yuzhou, otherwise it would not be his turn to do things.
Speaking of the current situation of the Qianjiang factory, Zheng Nan is also helpless, before the factory has grown from small to large, it is prosperous, and everyone is working together. At present, many cadres have been parachuted in the province and city, and many of them are still holding key positions, which has caused ordinary workers in the factory to complain and the people's hearts have begun to disperse. It's like if you worked so hard to get a green vegetable patch, but now you have a lot of borers gnawing on the leaves, and if you don't clean it up in time, the whole vegetable patch will be destroyed. However, the moths are all big and can not be moved easily, so the vegetable farmers can only turn a blind eye and deceive themselves that the moths will fly away on their own after they are full.
Han Hao didn't know that he was the deputy director of the Qianjiang Factory, so he came up to sell products, and Zheng Nan couldn't help but think highly of him. Knowing that Han Hao had selected and sent samples to the factory for testing according to the process, Zheng Nan didn't say anything more. Ma Xiaotian is so arrogant that he doesn't even sell the face of the factory director now that he has a backer, and Zheng Nan will not come forward to make himself bored. Han Hao will not publicize the evil things between himself and Ma Xiaotian everywhere, everything depends on strength, and it will be interesting to see how it will change in the future. Therefore, on the matter of shell products entering the Qianjiang factory, the two maintained their due tacit understanding, and only talked about it in detail without further details.
Fortunately, he chose a sleeper to lie down and rest, otherwise the 39-hour hard seat, Han Hao couldn't imagine it, it was too much of a test of perseverance.
Coming out of the Yuzhou Railway Station, Han Hao and Wang Erbao separated from Zheng Nan, after all, both sides had their own work tasks, but they made an appointment to get together again when they were free after returning to their hometown.
Yuzhou is indeed worthy of the title of mountain city, and when you look up, you can see that the railway station is located at the foot of the mountain, and the mighty Yangtze River is in the distance. Han Hao, who is accustomed to the style of small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River, was touched by the heroic atmosphere of the land of Bashu as soon as he came to Yuzhou.
Han Hao first had to find a place to stay, and took a bus for more than an hour to the guest house near the Jialing Motorcycle Factory to stay. Booked a double room with their ID cards, and after a simple wash, the two began to go to the factory to sell.
Different from the modern factory in Han Hao's imagination, the Jialing Motorcycle Factory presents a kind of historical heritage, the entire factory area follows the Soviet-style architectural style and is neatly planned, and the old and huge factory building shows the glory it has experienced.
With a history of nearly 100 years, the arsenal responded to the country's call for military to civilian after the reform and opening up, and the Jialing factory was transformed into a motorcycle production. In 1984, in cooperation with Honda, it introduced and put into production the classic model Jialing JH70 in the minds of a generation.
Outside the factory gate, large trucks are queuing up to pick up and load the trucks, reflecting the short supply of motorcycles produced by the Jialing factory.
When I came to the purchasing department, the staff inside heard that it was to sell motorcycle shells, so they impatiently blew Han Hao and Wang Erbao away.
"The shell is contracted by our subordinate branch, and we do not purchase from external sources. ”
After repeated questioning, the other party gave a reason for refusal.
"The shells we make are of good quality and cheap, so they can be customized and reduce costs. ”
Han Hao didn't give up and took out a sample of the shell and said.
"The most annoying thing is that you outsiders come to sell, and you say you don't need it. Our factory has regulations that only allow the purchase of products from subordinate branches. No matter how good your stuff is, it's useless!"
Originally, he didn't expect much to enter the supply system of a large factory with an output of up to 500,000 vehicles, but Han Hao was deeply impressed by the one-size-fits-all rigid supply chain system of the other party. Buying vegetables in the vegetable market knows that there is no comparison, there is no progress, and the mysterious and tall veil of Jialing Factory ripped off half a point in Han Hao's heart.
On the big truck that left after picking up the goods from the factory, Han Hao saw that they were basically JH70 products, and there were a few new JH125 products that were expensive. With a single JH70 product selling well for nearly 10 years without a major upgrade, Han Hao thought in his heart that the Jialing factory is used to eating the old book, and the competitiveness should decline sharply if it does not change in the future.
Turning to the maintenance department of the Jialing factory, sure enough, there are more engine parts here than the Qianjiang factory, and the mainstream engine parts in the market can be seen here. Han Hao came to the 70CC engine area produced by the Jialing factory, which is the model purchased by the Qianjiang factory, and found that there were also complete sets of parts here. After estimating the price, I found that it was the same as the price of Qianjiang Factory, which cost 1,300 yuan, which was very profitable.
He was overjoyed in his heart, wouldn't he be able to clone the procurement model of the Qianjiang factory here, buy engine parts on a large scale, and then ship them back to Hushan to assemble.
Han Hao quietly purchased a set of 70CC accessories, and sure enough, the salesman didn't ask too much and gave him all the parts.
There is a play, and according to the impulse in his heart, Han Hao formed a plan in his heart, that is, to empty the parts of the Jialing factory and make a quick money while the time is poor.
However, before that, he still went to the construction of a motorcycle factory as planned. The CY80 bent beam car produced by the construction factory, which was also imported from the Yamaha company model, and like the JH70 in Jialing, it was also put on the market around 1984 and became a generation of classic national motorcycles. The factory gate is full of large trucks picking up goods, and the mainstream product is still CY80, which is facing the same dilemma as the Jialing factory with an elderly product to win the world. However, the pricing of engine parts in the construction plant closely follows the market situation, and Han Hao calculated that there is no room for arbitrage. Therefore, Han Hao focused all his attention on the Jialing 70CC.
Before Han Hao came, he expected that he might find an opportunity for arbitrage of engine parts in Yuzhou, so he deposited all his family's money into the new national deposit and exchange card launched by the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.
Opportunities are always left to those who are prepared, Han Hao rented a private house nearby, and moved out of the guest house with Wang Erbao to live here. Bangbang workers are unique labor workers in the mountain city of Yuzhou, because the urban area of Chongqing is built in the middle of the hillside, walking the streets and alleys need to climb the hill, so the freight transportation needs to use manpower to help. A bamboo stick and a pair of shoulders are the guys who eat the stickers.
Han Hao took the method used in his hometown, and hired a stick worker to help him purchase engine parts in the maintenance department of the Jialing factory in the form of numbering, and the amount on the card was almost exhausted in just 5 days, including Pang Aiguo cashing out more than 100 assembled engines on hand and borrowing 300,000 yuan.
A full set of 946 engine accessories, Han Hao and Pang Aiguo invested almost all their net worth in this purchase, filling most of the room.
The sudden large-scale purchase of the maintenance department caused the vigilance of the Jialing factory, and Zheng Nan happened to say that the Qianjiang factory had experienced the same situation when discussing cooperation. The loopholes in the pricing of parts this time reflect the rigidity of the internal systems of the Jialing and Qianjiang factories of the large enterprises, which do not respond enough to the sensitivity of the market, and still respond to the upcoming tide of market economy with the thinking of planned economy.
A character flashed in Zheng Nan's mind, thinking that it would not be such a coincidence that Han Hao would make such a big event. First in Zhehai, and then in Yuzhou, there are Han Hao's figures. If it's true, then he has to reassess the strength of this Tiger Mountain Car God.
Of course, Han Hao knew that his large-scale purchase would cause a reaction from the other party, but presumably Zheng Nan would explain the situation of the Qianjiang factory when he came to Yuzhou, not to mention that he heard that the engine may be in short supply in the coming year. A small bite at a time is not worth a big bite at a time, and if the other party finds the loophole early, then a small bite will not be eaten. Therefore, Han Hao still decided to finish this big ticket first and settle down as soon as possible.
What's more, cutting the meat of the other party with a blunt knife is not boiling a frog in warm water to yourself. The money for assembling engine parts is too easy, and people will be addicted to it, and they will not have the determination to develop their own engines, Han Hao actually has this consideration in his heart.
After the stick worker found that the purchase price of parts in the Jialing maintenance department had increased, Han Hao's anxious heart settled down, and this large amount of quick money that could not be forced finally came to the end stage.
When Han Hao took Wang Erbao to consign 946 sets of engine parts by train and returned to Jiangzhou smoothly, Xu Hantong, who came to pick up the car, told him a not-so-happy news.
