Chapter 139, Be a Neighbor with You
"I found that you were not optimistic about the later market of the steel industry for a long time, but you still insisted on entering the source industry, what did you think at that time?" Xu Wenxiang asked.
"Nothing else, I just want to complete the industrial chain, so that the ability to resist risks is relatively stronger. Just to repay the favor, I gave a very important link to a friend, and now I haven't found a new breakthrough point, which is quite depressed. Chen Shu said.
"Oh, what's wrong with that link?" Xu Wenxiang felt a little surprised, there would be such a mistake, but thinking of Chen Shu's repayment just now, he also understood the reason, but it is impossible that there is no room for remedy, right?
"I am now making iron, steelmaking, billet casting, and rolling all four links by myself, and the quality of the hot coils I produce is very good. The extended industries I was originally optimistic about were cold-rolled sheets, galvanized sheets, and color steel, but the company's shareholders opposed them and did not invest in the company's name. ”
"But I gave the project to my friends who helped me the most, and I was only one of the shareholders. I knew about this money, but didn't realize the importance, and now it's too late to think about it. ”
"Now 50% of the company's hot coil is sold by itself, and the other 50% is directly supplied to the downstream cold rolling company, which is my friend's factory.
Now it directly relieves our sales pressure for us, but if other rolling mills get involved, what will happen to our prices? If our products have better performance and are biased towards price increases, what will happen to the other party? These are all troubles. Chen Shu said.
"Philistines bother themselves, don't care about it at all. Since you choose market competition, don't think about so many things, you give him the leading power of the company, and you have already repaid the greatest favor, so there is no need to think about so many problems. ”
"Your own product quality is good, the price increase is reasonable, after all, it contains proprietary technology, there is its due added value, no price increase means that you are not confident in your own products. ”
"As for the fear of other companies getting involved in the future, it means that you don't know enough about your own product and the other person's product. If your product has an irreplaceable line, do you think the other party will choose someone else?"
"You can consider developing for the use of the other party, so that the other party can become dependent, and if you can't get someone else's product to replace it, there is no room for choice. If you increase the added value, you will naturally be able to make more money. ”
"You haven't talked about the market yet, you're talking about it anymore. Xu Wenxiang immediately changed the topic back.
"Since the day the policy of eliminating backward production capacity was introduced, Tangshan's steel industry has not stopped changing from small to large. Eliminate the blast furnace below 300 cubic meters, and go directly to the 450 m³ blast furnace, or a larger blast furnace. ”
"Knocking out and demolishing a small one, or even building two larger ones, is worried that if it is demolished in the future, the blast furnace capacity will become larger and larger, and of course, the steel production capacity will become larger and larger. ”
"In the past two years, the increase in steel has reached an uncontrollable level, while the state has made a fuss about infrastructure and housing prices, and is gradually reducing investment and controlling the excessive expansion of real estate. In a few years, the steel industry will collapse, and the losses at that time will not be measured by the small money we earn. Chen Shu said.
"It is estimated that it will be easy to distinguish whether it will be a smile or a dead end. Xu Wenxiang said, but his confidence in Chen Shu is still very strong.
"How can you say that you have also stepped into the ranks of billionaires, do you have any ideas?" asked Chen Shu.
"What can you think, just live my little life in peace, after the Spring Festival, see where there is a good house in Qinhuangdao, if you have money, it seems a bit too much, right?
"I bought a suite in Beijing, then I bought a car, and the rest of the money was saved for later use, which cost almost 70 million. Chen Shu said.
"Damn, what house did you buy cost sixty or seventy million, villa, right?" Xu Wenxiang said excitedly, and Chen Shu nodded silently, and then looked at Xu Wenxiang who had already stood up excitedly.
"I'll go! I've found the gap between the two of us, you're forcing me to make money! No, I have to be neighbors with you, is there still a neighborhood where you bought a house? Anyway, I'm not short of money now, and I don't know how to spend this money, so I just took out half of it to buy a house. Xu Wenxiang said very decisively.
"Why don't you go back and discuss it with Guo Yanfang?" asked Chen Shu.
"Definitely, this guy has to spend half of his savings directly, but why don't you buy a house and keep it? My parents and my sister have both come over, and they have been here this year, mainly because the children are too young to worry. ”
"Is there a house in that neighborhood you are talking about? If you find me someone who is similar to you, I will go back and tell my daughter-in-law." Xu Wenxiang said.
"There is one set that is exactly the same as the one I bought, we didn't have time to stare at the decoration, so we bought a hardcover house, and the other one is a rough house, which is separated from me by a small lake, and the house type is exactly the same. Chen Shu said.
"Is there anything on the Internet? Xu Wenxiang said.
"Yes!" After speaking, Chen Shu sat next to Xu Wenxiang's computer, and quickly found the suite he bought, which has not been deleted on the Internet, but it has become sold for sale.
"This place is really good, you have a good eye, and it is close to the East Fourth Ring Road, and it is easy to go out by car. When I go back, I will work with my daughter-in-law, and in the future, I will change to a Beijing hukou, and it will be convenient for my children to go to school, especially when they are admitted to local schools, so they don't have to work as hard as we go to school. Xu Wenxiang took a good look at the name of the community, so he closed the webpage and didn't stare at it anymore.
"I also bought it out of this consideration, otherwise who would go to Beijing to buy a house. Do any of the employees in the company want to buy a house? How many more?" asked Chen Shu.
"Two of them have already bought them, and after the bonus this year, two more people have made a down payment, and the other few people will save for another year, but I prefer to borrow money to make a down payment, otherwise the speed of saving money will not keep up with the rate of house price increases, but they don't seem to listen. Xu Wenxiang shook his head.
"It's not bad, at least the shareholding is quite positive, and it is estimated that next year's dividends will be enough to pay the down payment, at least we are still very confident." Chen Shu smiled and said.
After chatting for a while, Chen Shu and Xu Wenxiang came out of the office together and went to the hall where the employees worked. The office area is divided into small areas with desks, which is to not disturb others as much as possible.
At this time, everyone was chatting with melon seeds, very comfortable, the most important thing is that this year's income is good, everyone has received a considerable bonus, and the mood is naturally good.
"Mr. Xu said that everyone will go out to eat together in a while, has the place been booked?" asked Chen Shu.
"It's booked, Fisherman's Wharf! That's a good place, the restaurant looks directly to the sea, and the key is that the seafood is really good." Immediately someone spoke.
Chen Shu was here when the company was first established, and everyone also knew the temper of the chairman, so he was not restrained in his speech.
"It seems that you Xu always had the foresight, when I came, I thought you had to go to work today, but only then did I find out that today is Saturday, and it just so happens that you can also have a smooth holiday. Do you want to go home for the Chinese New Year? I remember you don't have Qinhuangdao locals, right?" asked Chen Shu.
"When I went back, I bought all the train tickets, the early ones were this afternoon, the things were packed, and the late ones were tomorrow, and most of them went home. Hehe!" Chen Shu asked, and someone answered immediately.
"Chairman, I heard that the steel mill is also making a lot of money this year, how much can the dividends be shared?" These people actually want to know whether they make more or less than the steel mill.
"The steel industry occupies a lot of capital, and it is no longer a period of profiteering. This year, the company with the highest dividend can achieve a return rate of 70%, and of course the lowest is 43%, which is relatively good. Chen Shu said, everyone also nodded, at least don't think about the number of deposits.
Chen Shu joined everyone's chat team, chatted with everyone for a while, and began to clean up the office at almost eleven o'clock, and then cut off the power and lock the door and set off. Bu Xiaomei originally planned to take someone else's car, but Chen Shu shouted and came up in his car.
"Bu Xiaomei, are you used to working here?" asked Chen Shu.
"It's good, didn't I get a stake last year, and at the end of the year, I bought a house here, and now my husband and children are here, and the environment is much better than Tangshan." Bu Xiaomei said.
"I didn't expect you to move fast enough, you can only buy early and not late, and the later you go, the higher the price. By the way, how many people still live in my house?" asked Chen Shu.
"Everyone has moved out, at first everyone was trying to save money, but now the company is so good to everyone, the salary is definitely countable, a few of them have found a new place to rent a house, of course, some have bought their own. Bu Xiaomei said.
"You bring your husband here, is it easy to find a job?" asked Chen Shu.
"He graduated from automation, mainly in automation control, and it is relatively easy to find a job in technology. Now I have shared so much dividends in a year, and I have already made him beautiful, not to mention that the environment here is so good, even his parents moved over. ”
"My husband is now obsessed with fishing, and when he has nothing to do at the beach, he casts a rod to fish, which is just a physical exercise. Usually, the old couple picks up my son to school, and takes him to the beach to play on weekends. My work is more beautiful, and I have two days off and full holidays, so I spend more time with them. ”
"Speaking of my work, our whole family is grateful, I have met Mr. Xu several times, and I have had dinner with everyone a few times in the summer when I have nothing to do, after all, there is no local in our company, and we can talk together. Bu Xiaomei said.
"It's a good atmosphere, work hard, it's rare to have such a good platform. The reason why I didn't set up the company in Tangshan is that considering the environment here, it seems that I have considered it right. You don't have to think about spending money at today's dinner, it's rare to invite everyone to have a meal, not to mention that the New Year is coming soon. Chen Shu received.
"I also deliberately brought the money, I was originally going to settle the bill at that time, it seems that our branch is going to take advantage of the directors again!haha!" Bu Xiaomei said while sitting in the co-pilot.
"It's rare to invite everyone back, you can't not give it a chance at all!" Chen Shu also said with a smile, at this time Xu Wenxiang's car was in the front, and Chen Shu followed closely and set off.
