Chapter 90: Potential Intent
The tradition of the civil war for the insiders, the foreign war for the outsiders, and the overseas Chinese fighting in the nest are indeed a little unacceptable. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As a representative of agrarian culture, especially under the influence of the Ming and Qing dynasties' policy of closing the country to the outside world, the Chinese civilization, which once stood at the top of the world's civilization, has obviously lagged behind the Western civilization in modern times, which has also led to the unspoken rule that foreigners are superior to others and overseas Chinese are invisibly three points shorter.
In Vietnam, due to the influence of historical factors between China and Vietnam, there was a wave of Chinese exclusion, and a large number of Chinese living in Vietnam have returned to the embrace of the motherland. However, there are still some Chinese who have taken root and established themselves in Vietnam and have stayed in the local area, and after a period of difficult years of self-preservation, they have integrated into Vietnamese society. Therefore, the Chinese who remain in Vietnam know the power of unity, and the cohesion between the Chinese is stronger than that of other countries. And the ability to stand tall in the turbulent relations between China and Vietnam shows that these people are the elite of overseas Chinese.
After the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Vietnam, the Chinese in Vietnam began to form a force to be reckoned with in the business community. To integrate into localization, intermarriage with Vietnamese people is inevitable. It's like standing in front of Han Hao, this young man who is a little restrained but full of vitality in his eyes is one of the representatives, his name is Li Guhua, and he is a 26-year-old Chinese-Vietnamese mixed-race child.
The Le family is a well-known wealthy man among the Vietnamese Chinese, and unlike other Chinese who uphold the concept of Chinese-Chinese marriage, the old man of the Le family is more open-minded and does not prohibit his descendants from intermarrying with Vietnamese. Lineage is only temporary, culture is eternal, as long as you believe in Chinese culture, you are Chinese. This view is indeed ahead of its time, but it has also won the approval of a very small range of Chinese.
"Mr. Han, do you really want to build a motorcycle factory in Vietnam?
Knowing that Huaxia Factory was preparing to enter Vietnam, Li Guhua was excited to contact this project early on. As a Chinese who watches China's "News Network" every day through a satellite receiver, he knows the influence of Huaxia Factory in China. Motorcycles are not only suitable for China, but also for Vietnam, a peninsular country.
Han Hao just casually mentioned it when talking to the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, but he didn't expect this young talent of the Li family to be so attentive, so he couldn't help but look at him a few more times. Huaxia Factory wants to export motorcycles to Vietnam, and several Chinese are interested in cooperating, but it is limited to import trade, that is, they buy out the vehicle, and there is no need for the Chinese side to worry about how to operate the Huaxia brand in Vietnam. The buyout trade is much easier for Huaxia Factory, and the money and goods are clear, which can test the market without taking too many risks. Japanese brand motorcycles entering Vietnam basically adopt such a strategy.
Intensive cultivation on a fertile wasteland is always more promising than occasional predatory harvesting. For Volkswagen's forward-looking entry into China, thus winning an overwhelming market position in China, Han Hao did not fail to praise the Germans' foresight.
After spending a few days in Vietnam, Han Hao made time to visit a local motorcycle dealer for an afternoon, and found that many locals walked into the store with anticipation but left gloomily. Through the translation, I learned that many people who left were scared away by the high price of Japanese motorcycles, although the Japanese products seem to be high, but the price is really far from the current Vietnamese public. Although tariffs are much cheaper than in China, for example, the imported Suzuki GS125 sells for nearly 20,000 yuan in China, but only about 15,000 yuan in Vietnam, but it is still beyond the spending power of most people.
The hottest thing in the store is a small bicycle from Suzuki, with an exhaust capacity of only 50CC and a price of up to 8,000 yuan, which has become the first choice for many young Vietnamese men and women. After going around the small scooter and learning that the motorcycle was imported from Japan, Han Hao took his subordinates to analyze the cost and concluded that if it was produced by the Huaxia factory, the cost would not exceed 1,500 yuan. Of course, the quality of the imitation is slightly inferior, but it is not a problem to open for 5 years.
Han Hao admitted that the strength of Japanese manufacturers in China was underestimated, but he did not expect that they had penetrated into all levels of Southeast Asian countries. As the world's second largest economic power, Japanese products are like precision-guided missiles all over the world, and they are unstoppable. In Vietnam alone, Han Hao has seen Japanese brands from daily necessities to luxury goods. For this reason, seeing Han Hao, who was dressed brightly and magnificently, the first thing many Vietnamese service staff said was to say hello in simple Japanese, because he was too much like the day A himself who went out to play. To this end, Han Hao specially sought the help of the embassy to find a five-star red flag badge for the business group to wear to prove his identity as a Chinese.
Respect for the achievements of Japan A himself in the field of industry and commerce, but it does not mean that Han Hao likes to be regarded as Japan A himself abroad. Because it is not about personal vanity gains and losses, but about the dignity of the country and the nation. It was from this small detail that Han Hao felt the strong influence of Japanese A in the world.
Compared with the despair of the Chinese in looking at the world situation a hundred years ago, China at that time was facing the division of powerful people from all over the world, and in addition to numbness, there was only pain. Now the generation of Chinese people who have grown up in the reform and opening up represented by Han Hao look at the current situation again in addition to curiosity and admiration, but also have more of a challenge in their hearts. Why can't we Chinese live a good life like you developed countries? All your villa cars, sooner or later we will have even better quality than yours.
Of course, after a hundred years of conceptual changes, which are inseparable from the blood and tears of hundreds of millions of Chinese sons and daughters, if Han Hao was still a little scoffed at the serious talk of the political teacher on the podium before, now that he can better understand the knowledge taught in books when he goes abroad, I am afraid that it is not as difficult as one percent of the real historical process that takes place in reality.
In the face of Li Guhua's invitation, Han Hao had a closed-door meeting with him, and the two sides focused on the issue of building a factory in Vietnam.
Seeing the cooperation plan given by Li Guhua, Han Hao was a little stunned for a while, because this is basically a script for a joint venture between domestic manufacturers and foreign brands. 50:50 Equity distribution, Huaxia factory with technology and brand shares, Vietnamese shareholders use land, manpower and policy cooperation.
The biggest risk of building a factory in Vietnam is the political factor, or the problem of localization. China's excellent investment environment has attracted a large number of foreign investment, and the most important factor is the government's endorsement and commitment to guarantee the legitimate interests of investors in China. Now that Huaxia Factory is going to build a factory in Vietnam, which has historical friction with China, the biggest concern is whether the interests of investment are guaranteed. According to the preliminary plan, the establishment of a branch factory in Vietnam will require an investment of at least 20 million yuan. Although this money is not a pain in the bones for Huaxia Factory, it is also a very large number when quantified into the profit accumulation brought by each motorcycle.
"Mr. Han, you can rest assured. Our Li family has a good relationship with the military, so I think they will also be very interested in this project. As a partner, we are able to safeguard your interests on the ground. As I said, you only need to think about the business and the technical issues, and we'll take care of everything else. ”
Seeing Li Guhua's confident performance, Han Hao believed in the assurance of this person who was known as the successor of the Li family. But there have been rumors in China that the military government is barred from doing business, and doing business in Vietnam's military is a hot topic right now. I understand from the embassy that there is an investment in the involvement of the Vietnamese army, and there is no need to worry about security. When other companies are busy seeking foreign brand joint ventures in China, Huaxia Factory can already go abroad and enjoy super-national treatment as an investor. If the cooperation is successful, will Huaxia Factory be regarded as a typical representative of China's business community's export model? Han Hao thought to himself for a while.
After all, it is only an inspection, and whether to build a factory or not needs to return to China and then go through a systematic risk assessment, but Han Hao still invited the Li family to send a delegation to China to inspect the Huaxia factory. The Chinese market is huge, but the strategy of going out cannot be left behind, and Han Hao has always had the potential to compete with Japanese brands around the world. The Li family expressed their sincerity, even if this cooperation fails, the establishment of personal relationships is still a great achievement.
The plane took off from Vietnam and returned to China, which was a preliminary meeting of his expectations, and also gave Han Hao a deeper understanding of the Southeast Asian market. After dealing with domestic affairs, Han Hao plans to inspect Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and other countries with good economies to see if he can expand the local market.
Now Huaxia Factory is already a giant of township enterprises in China, and the profits and taxes all show its huge economic status. Han Hao has also gradually liberated himself from daily management, and is more of a grasp of the general direction of the enterprise. A person's energy is really limited, and grasping the big and letting go of the small is the truth that Han Hao realized from it.
As soon as he returned to China, Han Hao received a bad news that made him difficult to accept.
