Chapter 89: Expeditions abroad
After several months of running-in, the production of the second phase of the battery has reached the design capacity. The market in the province has been basically occupied, and the market outside the province is also stepping up marketing.
Mecan Electric began to produce mobile phones at the end of last year, and Wang Dekang took the initiative to call Hu Youmin and asked him to send someone to sign a battery supply contract.
Xiong Leshan has established Leshan Group, and began to produce mobile phones at the beginning of the year. Hu Youmin called him and asked him if he could use Youmin's mobile phone battery?
He said briskly: "Brother Youmin, don't say that your battery is better than others, even if the quality is about the same, I will also use yours, you send someone to sign the supply contract." ”
Hu Youmin said happily: "Mr. Xiong, thank you for that." How about the computer motherboards we produce? The market response is okay? I am ready to produce mobile phone motherboards in the next step, and you still have to support me. ”
He laughed and said, "The computer motherboard is good, and it has taken my computer up a notch." I also believe that you will do a good job with the mobile phone motherboard, and this time it will be signed with the battery contract. ”
Jianghe Group, which also produces mobile phones, made a call to Li Hui and asked him if he could arrange a meeting with Longjianghe?
Li Hui is now the assistant to the president, and he said on the phone: "Youmin, I can handle the matter of the mobile phone battery, do you have anything else to do with Mr. Long?"
He said gratefully: "Thank you Mr. Li in advance, we are ready to produce mobile phone motherboards, and we also want you to use our products." ”
Li Hui hesitated for a moment and said, "This is a bit difficult, I'll arrange it for you, can I call you back at night?"
He said again and again that there was no problem, put down the phone, and he began to think about how to convince Long Jianghe to use his own products?
In the evening, Li Hui called back and asked him to come over tomorrow, and made an appointment to meet Longjianghe in the evening. He immediately informed Tian Xiaoyu, He Lijuan, Du Xingde, and Hong Jianming that they would go to Shenzhen-Hong Kong City early tomorrow morning.
This time I drove a Mercedes-Benz car, and Hu Youmin went to MeCan Group first. I communicated with Wang Dekang to see if he could use Jianghe Group's compressor?
In fact, Wang Dekang has long wanted to use their compressor, but at the beginning their products were too pretty, and the price was a bit high, so they never talked about it.
Later, there were more compressors on the market, and Jianghe Group competed, and the price naturally dropped, but MeCan Group used it smoothly and did not change suppliers.
To be honest, Jianghe Group's compressors are still better and the quality is more stable. Wang Dekang also wanted to change suppliers in his heart, but he couldn't swallow this breath and dragged it without changing.
Wang Dekang said to him: "The most taboo battle in the shopping mall is now there a step, as long as they use our mobile phone batteries and motherboards, we use his compressors." ”
After solving this problem, he had the bottom in his heart, and he wanted to rush to Shenzhen-Hong Kong City, Wang Dekang left them for lunch before leaving, and Shenzhen-Hong Kong to Nanzhou was only a little more than an hour's journey.
After lunch, I rested for a while, and arrived in Shenzhen-Hong Kong City at three o'clock in the afternoon. Find a hotel to stay in first, and then call Li Hui.
He said on the phone: "I was about to call you, Mr. Long has no time to invite you to dinner because he has to attend an event in the city in the evening, so I will entertain you." ”
"Mr. Long, please come to his office at half past eight in the evening to talk, and I will take you there, what do you want to eat at night? ”
Hu Youmin said that you can eat as much as you want, and the guests can do whatever they want. Hanging up the phone, several people could only rest in the hotel and wait for Li Hui to come over.
Li Hui came over at almost five o'clock, he held Hu Youmin's hand and said, "Youmin, I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm more energetic than before, where are we going to eat?"
Hu Youmin said with a smile: "Mr. Li, I have wanted to come to see you for a long time, and I haven't been able to spare time, so let's eat something in this hotel, I brought you a small gift, do you like it?"
After speaking, he took out a piece of jade pendant that he had prepared, handed it to him and said, "This is a talisman to ask the abbot of Hongshan to open the light, which can keep you safe." ”
He took it and put it around his neck and said, "Thank you, I like it very much, let's go down for dinner, shall we?" After Hu Youmin introduced Tian Xiaoyu, He Lijuan, and Du Xingde to him, several people went downstairs to ask for a private room.
Because of the abundant time, this meal was eaten until more than seven o'clock. Then I drove to Jianghe Group and waited for Longjianghe for tea in Li Hui's office.
Long Jianghe came back more than ten minutes early, and Li Hui introduced them. He held Hu Youmin's hand and said, "Hello Hu-, I heard Li Hui say that you have worked in our company, but we are blind and have not retained a talent like you." ”
Hu Youmin shook his hand and said: "Mr. Long laughed, where can I be considered a talent, but my luck is better than others, you have always been my role model, don't you come to study here again." ”
After introducing the others, everyone sat down on the couch. Hu Youmin said straightforwardly: "Mr. Long, this time, I came here to visit you and Mr. Li and other old leaders, and second, to promote our company's products." ”
After speaking, he handed him the information and said: "The mobile phone battery we produce has been verified by the market and is currently the most cost-effective. ”
"Although the motherboard has just started to be produced, we are developing and producing it according to high standards. The computer motherboard that has been put on the market has been recognized by users. ”
"The mobile phone motherboard is now a trial production and test market. We have signed supply contracts with Leshan Group and Mecan Group, and we also want to get the support of Mr. Long. ”
Long Jianghe looked through the information and said: "There is no problem with the mobile phone battery, and the mobile phone motherboard, we have just started to produce mobile phones, so Hu - can't let us take risks." ”
Hu Youmin said with a smile: "Mr. Long, don't worry, you can use our motherboard on a mobile phone model first, if there is a problem with the quality of the motherboard, we will purchase this batch of mobile phones, and ensure that this batch of mobile phones will not circulate in the market." ”
Seeing him looking at himself with a smile, Hu Youmin knew that he had approved the plan, and was just waiting for him to make some concessions and obtain greater benefits.
Hu Youmin deliberately paused for a while, pretending to be embarrassed and said: "As for the price, the big companies that produce mobile phones are all given the lowest price, and there is no way to make concessions." ”
"Of course, Long is always my old leader, there must always be a meeting gift, I have a personal relationship with Wang of Mecan Group, he is very interested in the compressor you produce, I can help you introduce it. ”
Long Jianghe laughed: "It's a good trick to use your strength, today you can see the wisdom of Mr. Hu, no wonder you can grow so fast." ”
"Okay, I agree with what you said, you come to the company tomorrow morning to sign the contract, and Mr. Li will be responsible for this matter, and I will take a look at the contract then." ”
Hu Youmin stretched out his hand and said, "Thank you for the support of the old leader, you see what is convenient for you, I will invite Wang Understand over for a cup of tea?"
He smiled and said, "How about tomorrow afternoon? It's just that tomorrow night there will be a charity party in the city, and we will go together." ”
The two hands clasped together: "Happy cooperation!" After returning to the hotel, Hu Youmin and them prepared the contract to be signed.
The contract was signed smoothly in the second morning, and there was nothing to do in the afternoon, Hu Youmin asked a few other people to go to Xiaomeisha Sea Stalls to play, and he wanted to wait for Wang Dekang to come over here.
He Lijuan wanted to wait with him, he said that they were all old acquaintances here, don't worry, he insisted that she go to play, and several people left with joy.
Wang Dekang arrived at about three o'clock in the afternoon, and after Hu Youmin arranged for him to rest in his room, he made a phone call to Li Hui.
Not long after, Li Hui called back and said that he had booked a private room in a five-star hotel and invited them over. Wang Dekang only took the secretary and the minister of justice, and went to the agreed place together in Hu Youmin's car.
Long Jianghe took a group of people to greet them at the door of the hotel, and after Hu Youmin introduced them, his hands clasped together and walked to the private room affectionately.
After eating, the compressor supply contract was signed at the wine table. Then Hu Youmin and Wang Dekang took the car of Longjianghe and went to the city to participate in the charity gala.
Hu Youmin knows a little about this kind of charity gala, he only symbolically spent more than 10,000 yuan to buy a painting in the late Qing Dynasty.
Wang Dekang said that there were many things in the company, so he went back that night. Hu Youmin was afraid that it would not be safe to drive long distances at night, so he returned to Baisha the next day.
At present, there are more than 20 mobile phones in China, and less than 10 are strong. Hu Youmin personally went into battle again, got three companies, and handed over the rest to the people below to run.
Badao Group also produces mobile phones, but he also makes motherboards. Hu Youmin didn't bother himself, and directly gave up the company's business.
In late April, Hu Youmin received a notice from the city that a week later, he would go to Japan and South Korea with the city delegation for an exchange visit.
Baisha City has become a sister city with a city in Japan and South Korea, and there is a visit and exchange event every year to attract investment.
The delegation has six quotas, four from state-owned enterprises and two from private enterprises. Hu Youmin was able to participate mainly because he has a microelectronics company, which is a high-tech enterprise that can be used abroad.
Another private company is Zhongnan Heavy Industry, when Qu Guoliang saw him, he said humorously: "The Yangtze River pushed back the front wave, and the front wave died on the sand stall, fortunately you didn't do construction machinery." ”
Hu Youmin held his hand and said: "But what people appreciate and admire is the grandeur and majesty of the front waves, and no one will pay attention to the back waves." He smiled and said, "You still want to press me in terms of eloquence?"
Xu Songbai of Xiangjiang Heavy Industry also visited with the delegation, and Hu Youmin greeted him warmly. Although he and Qu Guoliang secretly fought fiercely, they were very polite on the surface, and the two also laughed and snored.
The delegation flew to Tokyo and from Tokyo to Kagoshima Airport. Kagoshima City sent a bus to pick them up at the airport and it took almost an hour to arrive in Kagoshima City.
Kagoshima City is located in the northeastern part of the Satsuma Peninsula and is the central area of all Kagoshima Prefecture, and its main products are beverages, feed, tobacco, food processing, and publishing and printing.
Unique to Kagoshima City, the sand bath is four times more effective than ordinary hot springs in removing inflammatory exudates and fever-causing substances from the body, as well as providing the body with enough oxygen nutrients.
In the evening, I attended a reception dinner held in Kagoshima City, and the two sides had a friendly conversation. On the second day, I visited Kagoshima University and some companies.
When visiting the company, Hu Youmin found that the factory workshop was covered with tarpaulin, which looked like a production line.
And every workshop is the same, he was a little curious, and asked Qu Guoliang in a low voice what was covering? He whispered to Hu Youmin: "That is an arms production line, and if necessary, it can be put into use immediately." ”
"In Japan, slightly larger companies have arms production lines, and the production capacity is amazing, and they can produce large quantities of advanced arms in a short period of time. ”
Hu Youmin was shocked when he heard this, and the Japanese people's sense of adversity is too strong, right? This is the preparation of the whole people for war! No wonder a small island country has such great war potential.
In the afternoon, a Sino-Japanese business meeting was held at a hotel, and not only Kagoshima companies but also companies from many other cities and prefectures were attended.
The two sides have reached many investment and cooperation intentions in food, electronic processing, machinery, textile and other industries. One of the integrated circuit companies has expressed a strong interest in Hu Youmin's microelectronics company.
