Chapter 1: Foreign Trade Companies
Volume 1: The Ancient Tea Horse Road
At the end of 2017, in Guangzhou, Ginkgo Restaurant, a 3x5 meter sign-in spray painting at the door had two lines of words written on it.
"Ruitong Planning Foreign Trade Company"
"2018 Chinese New Year Gathering"
On the four-meter-long sign-in table in front of the spray-painting, dozens of sets of souvenirs were placed, and the manager of the restaurant also came out to help.
"OH, YOUR COMPANY'S TREATMENT IS OKAY, EVERYONE HAS AN IPHONE X ......"
LIKE IPHONE X, IT IS GENERALLY USED FOR LOTTERY DRAWS, DIRECT GIFTS, AND ONE FOR EACH PERSON, WHICH IS REALLY RARE.
"Of course, our Mr. Fan is good. ”
A little beauty who looked to be in her twenties replied excitedly.
She has only been in the company for half a year and is a receptionist at the front desk of the Jiangsu business department.
And the company treats everyone equally, she never thought that she felt that she had made no contribution to the company, and she actually had her own share.
"What is this, wait and grab the red envelope later. ”
When it came to grabbing red envelopes, several receptionists in front of the sign-in desk were very excited: "Do you know how many red envelopes Mr. Fan gave out last year, I heard that there were more than 100,000 ......"
"Really, how many people are there in our company?
The two little beauties who had just joined the company widened their eyes and looked incredulous, feeling that their hearts were pounding faster.
On the other side, on the Ring Expressway, there is a BMW 7 Series driving at a constant speed, driving a middle-aged man, he is the CEO of Ruitong Foreign Trade Company, named Fan Yang, almost 50 years old, and now he has a successful career, although the industry is not big, but the cash flow is quite abundant, pinch it, pinch it, one or two million or two million can still be taken out, which is very scary.
He is engaged in import and export trade, and has three business divisions in China, and China currently has the world's largest manufacturing industry, with strong production capacity in some basic consumer goods.
Clothing, shoemaking, electronics, cotton spinning, chemical fiber and other industries have incomparable advantages.
Low labor costs, huge supply chains and supporting facilities have allowed Made in China to be dumped almost all over the world in the past two decades.
Backed by the two largest special economic zones in China, the two largest electronics and clothing wholesale bases, like Fan Yang, who make profits in them to earn the difference, such as the carp across the river, there are countless people.
China's various commodities can be said to be easy to earn by taking a little bit out.
In the nineties of the last century, Fan Yang was already engaged in foreign trade, Romania, Czechoslovakia, Russia, Ukraine, purely from scratch, relying on the railway trunk to sell clothing, daily necessities, and VCD, CD, audio, and integrated circuit boards and other small commodities, relying on the dividends of the times, made a lot of money.
Trade, and industry is not the same, although a few years ago, I also invested in a garment factory in Jiangsu, but that is a small fight, although it seems that the family property is not much, but trade also has a benefit, that is, the cash flow is more abundant.
To put it bluntly, rely on a middleman to make the difference, buy and sell, and clear the money and goods.
But it's very discerning.
In recent years, those small commodities Fan Yang have touched less, one is 08 years after the financial crisis, the coastal trade ports were impacted, four trillion bailouts, M2 soared, the domestic economic level has improved, the standard of living has also improved, but the labor cost has also increased greatly.
At present, the monthly salary of any handicraft worker, who has no technical content, is above three or four thousand.
It's not like before when you could get it for a few hundred yuan, and you still grab a lot of it.
In terms of small goods, the advantage of Made in China is gradually declining.
Another is that the countries around Southeast Asia have also caught up in productivity and GDP year by year, just like India, which is also developing rapidly.
In recent years, Fanyang's main trade objects still rely on electronic products and heavy metals, as well as new building materials, and this year it has made a lot of money, reselling more than 4,000 tons of 304 scrap stainless steel, and earning more than 5 million yuan on this single order.
In addition to all kinds of dots, there is also a net profit of more than 3 million.
He's going to treat the boys in the company this year.
Yes, the little girl has a part.
Just thinking like this, the phone rang, Fan Yang picked up the phone and saw that it was his son calling.
His brow furrowed, but he picked it up anyway.
"Dad, where are you?"
"The company group meeting and talk about things. ”
"I want to change ...... car"
"Changing cars again?"
"Why do you want to change the car? I've had this car for three years, I should have changed it a long time ago, Dad, I just want a Jaguar, I can't add much money to this car." ”
"Okay, okay, okay, I know, the rest will figure it out by yourself. ”
Although he is impatient, he is his own son after all, and it is not too much to change to a Jaguar.
After a silent calculation in his heart, Fan Yang opened the mobile banking, and after some operations, he transferred 200,000 yuan to his son.
As soon as I looked up, in an instant, only one thought flashed in my heart, it was over.
Directly in front of his line of sight, a double-axle truck was less than 5 meters away from him.
Fan Yang only had time to subconsciously step on the brakes.
Then I heard a loud bang......
Finished.
Consciousness was blurred after that.
I don't know how long later, when Fan Yang opened his eyes leisurely, he found himself sitting under a tree.
"Where am I?"
Fan Yang patted his head, trying to make his head clearer.
"Am I dreaming?"
"Am I dead or something?"
"Shouldn't it? I also tied the seat belt, my car has seven airbags, it stands to reason that I can't die if I hit the rear end, I'm dreaming?"
Because Fan Yang found that he was wearing a pair of rotten leather shoes on his feet and a pair of light grass pants on his lower body, he still had a vague memory in his mind, as if he was poking a hornet's nest from a tree more than ten meters high, and fell down inadvertently.
But how did you get here?
"Fan Yang, Fan Yang, are you okay? ”
A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy slipped down from the tree: "Are you alright?"
"It's okay, who are you?"
But after asking this sentence, a memory suddenly popped up in my mind: "Missing a door?"
Memories show that this is a friend who he has played with since he was a child, because he was born with a disability and was born with a missing arm, so he is nicknamed Missing a Door.
I came with him to poke the hornet's nest today, but accidentally fell off the tree.
"What the hell is wrong with me? Dreaming?"
Then, with the support of the lack of a door, he limped back to his home.
I found that it was a brick house in the countryside, and there was a mother and a grandfather at home, and the clothes were very old, but they were fairly clean.
"No, did I cross over or something?"
