Chapter 24: A Brief Analysis

After coming out of the second factory, Chen Shu also had a general understanding of the production process of steel pipes, and then drove back to the company together. I found a place on the way, the two of them had a simple meal, and the morning visit was over.

After returning to the company, Chen Shu did not rush to start writing immediately, but made a framework for market analysis. The market targeted by Chen Shu is very simple, that is, Beijing, Tianjin and the three eastern provinces, and it has a strong purpose. The competition in the BJ market is the steel pipe factory of Tangshan and TJ.

The competition in the TJ market is the competition of local enterprises in TJ, and the market in the three eastern provinces is completely the competition with Tangshan enterprises and local enterprises in the three eastern provinces.

There is only one fundamental starting point for downstream traders to choose manufacturers, that is, interests, without enough benefits, it is difficult to achieve the desired situation. So what we need to do today is to analyze the cost of supply in various places, and then make a decision that is closer to the facts, and then write it into the planning document.

On the way back, Chen Shu said his thoughts, and Li Haowen took Chen Shu to a freight department, that is, a place dedicated to finding goods for large trucks. The place is not big, that is, two rented cabins, in which there are four people and girls are answering the phone, while constantly looking for updated freight information on the information network.

"Brother Li, why do you have time to come to me?"

"Haitao, this is Chen Shu, the manager of our steel pipe factory, and the car will be indispensable in the future, so let's take a look at you. Li Haowen introduced to the other party.

"Zhu Haitao, I opened this store, mainly to the three eastern provinces, BJTJ and the port are also issued. Zhu Haitao gave a brief introduction.

"Chen Shu, if there is anything in the future, you can't trouble Brother Zhu!"

"You're welcome, now I send about a dozen cars a day by BJTJ, more than ten in Shenyang, five or six in Changchun, and five or six in Harbin. When the time comes, I need the car to find me to ensure that the goods arrive, and if there is any problem on the road, I will be compensated for the loss of the whole cargo. Zhu Haitao briefly talked about his situation.

"Okay! When my side is up and running, the first thing I will definitely think of is Brother Zhu, and don't drop the chain when the time comes. Chen Shu said.

"Don't worry, Li Haowen's brother is my brother. ”

The two stayed here for more than ten minutes before returning to the company. Now what Chen Shu has to do is to ask about the freight, the freight to various places.

"Brother Zhu, I'm Chen Shu, I'm going to your place with Brother Li today, I want to know something, do you think it's convenient to talk?"

"It's okay, just say it!" Zhu Haitao said.

"How much is the freight to TJ now, how many tons are pulled? Pull strip steel or steel pipes or something, and BJ to TJ Daegu Village is basically 40 around, not less than 50 tons, or no one pulls. To BJ is generally 50 to 100 tons, and in the past, we used to pull 58 tons, and the freight was 35. Zhu Haitao said.

"How do you use a car in Shenyang? Chen Shu continued to ask.

"Many, in the past, many cars pulled steel pipes or strip steel, and their steel pipe factories over there were basically Tangshan strip steel. Shenyang's cars come to pull iron powder, this is more profitable, go back is to earn the oil money, do not lose money basically pull, so Shenyang's freight is cheap, only sixty. Zheng Haitao said.

"Oh! I understand, thank you, you can't avoid disturbing the eldest brother if you have something!" Chen Shu said, and the two of them were polite before hanging up the phone. Because of the understanding of freight, we generally have the concept of transportation costs in various markets, which is conducive to the estimation of the later market.

In the afternoon, Chen Shu suddenly received a strange phone call, saying that he was my steel website, whether he needed to subscribe to steel information, and could provide accurate quotations for billets, strips, profiles and charges on the same day.

"In this way, you first send me the price information of BJTJ Tangshan strip steel, billet and steel pipe today, I will take a look at it, if it is suitable, I am considering whether to order. This is the first time Chen Shu has opened his mouth to say that he is still making up a matter, but he is still a little apprehensive in his heart.

Only more than ten minutes have passed, and more than a dozen text messages have all been sent to his mobile phone, although the words are bluffing, but Chen Shu is serious when he sees it. After reading these short messages carefully, I collected the information I wanted, in addition to Rongcheng Steel, there are three major local strip steel suppliers.

There are many other strips from Tangshan's Guofeng and Ruifeng, and the broadband part comes from Tangshan Jianlong, and the transportation cost is relatively added to the price, and the price is naturally slightly increased. Taking these factors into account, it is estimated that the cost reduction will be greater if the company produces various strips in-house.

Even if you don't consider buying strip steel from your own low-cost supply, the company's strip production can still be more profitable.

It can be said that the most critical point this time is whether more steel pipe dealers can be contacted, if the network alone can be found, but the waste of time is not to mention, and there is no intuitive understanding of the strength of these trades, and there is no concept of distribution specifications and inventory.

In the afternoon, Chen Shu sat next to Li Haowen's computer and began to print his plan on the computer.

Chen Shu's plan is very simple, that is, he plans to let an old business take a business trip, on the one hand, he can be familiar with the location of each steel market and the specifications of the main business, and on the other hand, he can determine the person in charge of the other party's procurement, determine the specifications and thickness of the most daily sales, so as to facilitate the company's production in the future.

Even the whole itinerary is only three days, it can be said that most of the time is spent on the road, BJ is set in the Xisanqi, Baiziwan two steel markets, of course, Lange Steel office building will not let go.

After getting off work in the afternoon, Li Feng, Li Haowen and Chen Shu set off together, and this time Chen Shu repeatedly emphasized that he must be the east by himself, so the two of them were not reluctant. Liu Jian got another chance to eat, and drove into the car to pull Chen Shu and Li Feng to the front station, with Li Haowen behind.

While the three of them were eating, Chen Shu talked about his plans, while Li Feng and Li Haowen listened on the sidelines, and when they found something lacking, they put it forward and let Chen Shu consider it himself. Chen Shu directly revised the printed manuscript, and then continued to discuss, it can be said that the whole process was very smooth, while Liu Jian listened while eating, without inserting a word.

After settling the account, Li Haowen sent Li Feng home, Liu Jian continued to pull Chen Shu back to the steel pipe factory, and after arriving at the factory, the workshop was still brightly lit, Chen Shu went back to the dormitory and took a helmet and walked to the workshop.

At this time, the workshop floor has already been poured, and almost all the equipment has been installed in place, but the workers have not yet arrived, and according to the company's requirements, they will officially start work in six days, so it is a bit urgent for sales and workers to be in place.

"Chen Shu, you didn't rest, I thought you were sleeping!" General Manager Wang Shouye asked when he saw Luo Chen coming over.

"No! I just came back, I had some barbecue on the way, and I came back a little late, and I wrote something by the way, and I was going to show it to you, but I didn't bring it with me before I finished revising it. Chen Shu took this opportunity to say what he thought.

"It's okay, take it, it just so happens that I have time now, I'll wait for you." "Mr. Wang didn't procrastinate, it's better to see any ideas earlier, so it's better. When Chen Shu handed over the printed manuscript to the other party, he didn't notice any change in the other party's expression, which made the statement feel bottomless.

However, I still accompanied the leader, watched the hoisting and commissioning of the equipment, and the rolls had been installed on the unit, ready to produce the first batch of three-inch, two-inch and sixth-inch specifications.
