643 [Scale-up]

As soon as he heard the cooperation between the two sides, Director Liu leaned slightly and said thoughtfully: "Mr. Huo, do you mean that we took out the technology and equipment and chose to cooperate with the sauce garden in Foshan City, and they provided the secret recipe and handed it over to us for production?"

"It's about the same, but I don't think Foshan Sauce Garden will want to cooperate like this. ”

Huo Yaowen knows very well that the secret recipe is generally a secret that is not passed on by others, and it is probably impossible to get the other party to only provide the secret recipe, and the only way is to continue to build a joint venture.

Without waiting for Director Liu to ask, Huo Yaowen continued: "According to the scale of our Zhongshan Food Factory, I will personally invest another 7 million to build a new food factory in Foshan, and then the Zhongshan Food Factory will merge with the future Foshan Food Factory. ”

"Merge of the two food factories?" Director Liu frowned, at this time there was no precedent for the re-merger of joint ventures in China, and he was a little confused about whether it was feasible or not.

"Yes, merge. Huo Yaowen picked up the big porcelain cup on the table, took a sip of tea, and then said: "Director Liu doesn't have to worry too much, it's actually very simple, this is equivalent to me personally setting up two food factories in Zhongshan and Foshan, but they both belong to one enterprise." ”

"That's right. ”

Director Liu suddenly realized, thought for a while, and said after a while: "Mr. Huo, I will ask the leaders over there in Foshan when I go back." ”

"Okay. ”

Huo Yaowen is not worried about whether Director Liu can negotiate with Foshan after going back this time, after all, this is related to the future of Zhongshan Food Factory, and Director Liu does not want the only joint venture in his domain to go bankrupt like this.

Director Liu got up and said, "Then I'll go back and communicate with Foshan, so I won't bother Mr. Huo here." ”

"I'll send you Director Liu. ”

"No need Mr. Huo, a little road, we can just walk by ourselves, and we don't bother Mr. Huo to send him off. ”

"How can this work? ”

The two of them left the office one after the other.

Moment.

After Huo Yaowen sent Director Liu and his entourage to leave in the car, he turned around and went straight back to the office.

As soon as he returned to the office, Huo Yaoguang, who had been silent before, couldn't help but ask curiously: "Brother Yaowen, do we really want to cooperate with Foshan?!"

"Almost, oyster sauce is not particularly complicated to produce, and if we didn't help Foshan buy production equipment, they would have got it sooner or later, so it's better for me to spend some money to set up a new food factory in Foshan." ”

Although Huo Yaowen doesn't know how to produce sauces, he knows that Foshan has always been the main place for sauce production in Guangdong. The sauces produced are well-known in Guangdong and even the whole country, such as Foshan's "Haitian Sauce Garden" was merged by 25 ancient sauce gardens in 1955, and the secret recipes of various sauces are absolutely countless.

Since there is an opportunity to invest this time, Huo Yaowen naturally has no reason to refuse. In this way, there should not be much fluctuation in Zhongshan Food Factory in the future, as long as it is strictly made in accordance with the secret recipe of sauces in Foshan, it may be a "Haitian" in the future.

"By the way, Yaoguang, where did Guang Lihui go?"

Huo Yaowen suddenly remembered Guang Lihui, who was sent from Hong Kong to Zhongshan Food Factory to manage export exports.

"Manager Guang went to Thailand to discuss business. ”

"Thailand? What is he doing in Thailand? ”

Huo Yaoguang hurriedly said: "When you didn't come back last month, Brother Yaowen, Manager Guang took people to Thailand to open up the market. ”

"Oh, that's right. ”

Hearing that it was to open up the market, Huo Yaowen nodded slightly, glanced at Huo Yaozu, who was a little bored next to him, and said: "Brother Yaozu, I still have to talk to Yaoguang about the operation of the food factory in the past six months, it may take a lot of time, if you are bored, go back first." ”

"No need Yaowen, I'll wait for you to come along. It just so happens that I also want to visit your food factory. Huo Yaozu smiled and shook his head.

Huo Yaowen said to Huo Shuyi's sisters: "Shuyi, Shufen, you two take Brother Yaozu to walk around the food factory. ”

"Okay. Huo Shuyi and Huo Shufen agreed with a smile.

After the three of them left, Huo Yaowen asked Huo Yaoguang to go out and call all the management of the food factory over for a meeting. This time, he rarely had time to go back to the mainland to see the income and business conditions of the food factory during this period.

Most of the management of the food factory was transferred from various state-owned enterprises in Zhongshan, and only a few were newly promoted since the establishment of the factory.

Huo Yaowen had never met these people before, so he happened to take advantage of this time to come and meet them together.

Soon, within ten minutes, all the large and small management of the food factory arrived. Huo Yaoguang also introduced to everyone: "This is Mr. Huo Yaowen, the investor of our Zhongshan Food Factory, and I called everyone here this time, mainly because Mr. Huo wants to hear about the income and operation of the food factory in the past six months." ”

The food factory has been established for almost a year, and except for Huo Yaoguang and Huo Huiying, the rest of the people here have never seen Huo Yaowen. Therefore, when they heard that it was a Hong Kong businessman who invested in a food factory, everyone would inevitably take a closer look at it with curiosity.

However, some thoughtful people heard the connection between the foreign businessman's name and Huo Yaoguang, and suddenly realized that it was no wonder that this joint venture food factory would choose Huo Yaoguang, a person with little culture and no experience, as the deputy director.

Then Huo Yaoguang introduced the names and positions of the people present to Huo Yaowen, and finally he said: "Mr. Huo, except for Director Qi of the export department who went to Thailand with Manager Guang, everyone is here. ”

The room was quiet for a few seconds.

Huo Yaowen said: "Well, Director Narong, tell me how much oyster sauce and other sauces and condiments the factory can produce every month. ”

"Okay, Mr. Huo. ”

Director Rong got up and introduced seriously: "Our Zhongshan Food Factory currently has a total of seven production lines, in addition to three oyster sauce production lines, the remaining four are for the production of sweet and spicy sauce, soy sauce, soybean sauce...... At present, the average monthly production of the factory is about 10,000 cases of oyster sauce and about 5,000 cases of sweet and spicy sauce per month......"

With Director Rong's introduction, Huo Yaowen roughly understood that the current production volume of various products in the food factory is still too small, and the total number of various sauces is less than 40,000 boxes every month.

Up to now, the food factory only has some sales channels in neighboring countries such as Malaysia and Indonesia, which is still a channel obtained with the help of Huanyu Group. If you want to expand production, you must open up overseas markets, which is mainly a matter of product quality. Sweet and spicy sauce and soy sauce are all right, but before oyster sauce solves the problem of "chemical water", it is not good to produce it on a large scale without a market.

Therefore, after listening to Director Rong's report, Huo Yaowen had no plans to invest in the production line for the time being, and decided to take a look at the meaning of Foshan before making a decision.

As long as they agree to the joint venture plan that Huo Yaowen said, then they can use the recipe of the secret sauce in Foshan to expand the types of products produced, so as to open up foreign markets.
