Chapter 823: Jiang is still old and spicy
Speaking of Ho Shiyuan's business, it is related to the history of Chinatown.
In the early days, the Chinese had no status in the United States, and it was not until 1965, when the Chinese Exclusion Act was repealed, that there was a slight improvement.
But even so, the survival of most low-level Chinese in the United States is still very problematic.
Because of their limited education, they are only capable of unskilled manual labor in the United States.
For this reason, Chinatown has been popular for a long time, such as restaurants and laundries.
The reason is that such a service industry can solve the employment problem of many Chinese, and the labor cost is not high.
Later, with the advent of washing machines, the laundry industry gradually declined, and the employment of a considerable number of Chinese became a problem again.
In this case, the garment industry, which has low technical content but is in great demand and requires a large amount of cheap labor, has entered the sight of Chinese businessmen.
He Shiyuan was one of the first Chinese businessmen to enter the garment industry, and because of his Hongmen status, he quickly made this piece bigger and accumulated a certain net worth.
But there are problems.
In the case of He Shiyuan's existing garment factory, it mainly works for other brands, and does not create its own brand.
In this way, there is a bottleneck in development.
Even if he wants to invest in the mainland, he needs to consider whether he will continue to open a garment factory.
After careful consideration, Wu Xiaozheng made a suggestion to him, that is, to invest in the textile industry.
It's a kind of reverse thinking.
Many people may say that the domestic textile industry is now overcapacity, survival difficulties, in this case, to invest in the textile industry, is not a lot of money stupid?
But Wu Xiaozheng, who has come over, knows that the surplus is only the low-end products of the textile industry, and the demand for high-end products is not only not excessive, but also increasing.
The most important thing is that Wu Xiaozheng also knows that in the next few years, many international brands will open factories to China, where labor costs are the lowest, and China will become a world-class factory.
At that time, many clothing brands will be labeled "Made In China".
Therefore, investing in the textile industry in the country and engaging in the production of high-end products will be very marketable.
And He Shiyuan is very advantageous in this regard.
First, his current main business is garment processing, and he is familiar with the clothing materials of various brands, and investing in the textile industry can be regarded as a bank.
Second, relying on his Hongmen status, his connections among Chinese in the United States and even around the world, the advanced equipment and high-end technology required by textile factories are not a problem for him.
Wu Xiaozheng can also give him some help here.
That is, in the next time, Grandview Mall will deal with many brands.
Once he has the opportunity, Wu Xiaozheng can also help He Shiyuan connect with the heads of these brands and help him solve the problem of product sales.
Based on the above reasons, Wu Xiaozheng helped him come up with such an idea.
He Shiyuan was moved.
After careful consideration, he felt that the idea proposed by Wu Xiaozheng was very tempting and confusing.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Xiaozheng thought of the provincial textile factory in Hunan Province.
Sometimes, it is better to invest in an existing factory than to invest in a new factory.
The provincial textile factory is still very attractive to He Shiyuan.
At the very least, the provincial textile mills now have land, workshops, and skilled workers, but what they lack is capital, equipment, and technological transformation, as well as product sales.
In this regard, He Shiyuan's investment can complement its advantages.
Therefore, after obtaining He Shiyuan's consent, Wu Xiaozheng had the heart of bridging again.
"That's the case, whether it can be done or not, you can talk about it yourself, anyway, I can only help you pull this line. ”
The old man was overjoyed.
For the provincial textile factory, if it drags on like this, it will only become a burden to Hunan Province, and if the problem of survival is not solved, sooner or later there will be a big problem.
Wu Xiaozheng said again: "But to tell you the truth, I helped Senior Brother He come up with an idea." ”
"What's the idea?"
"I suggested to him that a joint venture is okay, but he must occupy a controlling stake, and he must get the decision-making power and the right to operate and manage, and state-owned capital can only participate in the shares, and cannot interfere with his freedom of operation. ”
The old man was stunned for a moment.
"You're going to make us very passive in the negotiation process!"
"I made the suggestion and I have to be responsible for his investment. To be honest, I can't trust the bureaucrats in the textile mills. ”
Old man: "......"
This stinky boy, this is a slap in the face!
However, he had to admit that many people in the system are indeed very problematic in their work style, and many people are indeed very bureaucratic, which is also one of the important reasons for the decline of state-owned enterprises.
Alas, it would be nice to be able to solve the burden, and don't think about any controlling rights and management rights.
The old man sighed.
Even if he has the heart to solve many problems in the operation of state-owned enterprises, it is not a matter of overnight, and now he can only try to promote this matter.
Wu Xiaozheng's harvest is finally over.
He began to ask for rewards.
"Old man, in the coming year, Chef Wu and Grandview Group will be in a rapid development, and there is a shortage of funds, can you help in this regard, can you contact some loans or something?"
This is the main purpose of Wu Xiaozheng to meet the old man.
Everything in front of us is a gesture of goodwill.
Indeed, with the launch of the Guangzhou Tianhe Grandview Plaza project, coupled with the construction of a five-star hotel is also being planned, and the Grandview Plaza project in other first-tier cities is also being launched, there will be a serious shortage of funds.
For his own business, Wu Xiaozheng does not want to attract investment, even if William Lin and others are very interested in investing in shares.
Therefore, securing a loan is the best solution.
According to the existing scale and reputation of Wu Chef Group and Grandview Group, it is not difficult to obtain a small amount of loans, but there is a trust problem with large loans.
Wu Xiaozheng, who is well versed in the situation within the system, knows that there must be a powerful figure to help pull the strings.
That's exactly why he looked for the old man.
This is the first time he has officially put forward conditions to the old man.
The old man has the intention to support Wu Chef Group and Zhengjia Group as key private enterprises in Hunan Province, but this does not mean that he will help recklessly.
Therefore, in the following time, he had a good understanding of the future development of Wu Chef Group and Grandview Group.
This kid is so daring!
The Grandview Plaza in Changshi has not yet officially opened, and the project in Guangzhou has been launched, and a five-star hotel will be built!
Isn't he afraid of investment problems?
But he had to admit that Wu Xiaozheng's overall thinking was practical and feasible, and he was very well prepared.
For example, in the five-star hotel project, the establishment of a joint venture hotel management company and the introduction of advanced management experience from the United States are a clever move.
"As long as the business of Changshi Grandview Plaza is good after its opening, I can help you go and say hello. ”
The old man gave a promise first.
Wu Xiaozheng was overjoyed.
But the old man immediately continued: "But you have to do me another favor." ”
Wu Xiaozheng suddenly felt bad again.
What can make the old man mention it so solemnly is definitely not a trivial matter, but a big trouble!
He thought to himself, oh no, he was still a little too anxious.
If you let the old man mention it first, what you just asked for would not matter!
Alas, ginger is still old and spicy!
