Chapter 154: Asking for Land Again
Chen Weihua laughed twice and said, "Brother Fang, it's not that my brother doesn't work hard, the main thing is that the cooperation model you mentioned has never been adopted by our company, so there are a lot of opinions at the group meeting, and there are people who are for and against it, and there is a stalemate, so there is no result."
Fang Yi thought about it, maybe they still felt that it would be riskier to set up a factory in this inland city, and said, "Mr. Chen, how did you Foxconn do it, such an issue needs to be discussed for such a long time, aren't you Boss Guo quite courageous." You can help me to answer, about the production capacity of this factory, within three years, our Century Technology will be fully covered, and you will not have no business to do; secondly, my time is limited, and I will give you three days to consider, if you don't do it, I will be ready to do it myself, and maybe the two production volumes of Yangcheng will be moved to Shudu together."
Chen Weihua ended the call with Fang Yi, did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported to Boss Guo, mainly explaining the current monthly production volume of Century Technology product Xiao C, as well as its increasing production demand, coupled with the production capacity commitment and time requirements given by Fang Yi, Boss Guo held a meeting that afternoon and decided on the intention of cooperation. Once the decision is made to cooperate, Foxconn's team execution is still very strong.
On November 6, a five-person investigation team led by Chen Weihua arrived in Shudu, and Fang Yi invited them to taste his barbecue at his barbecue restaurant.
Chen Weihua, who had drunk some wine, put his arm around Fang Yi's shoulders and said, "Brother Fang, this time my brother can press on his future at Foxconn, if something goes wrong with this cooperation project, my brother and I will not have the face to continue to stay at Foxconn."
Fang Yi felt that one of his strings was plucked when he heard this, and said half-jokingly, "Brother, if you are not happy at Foxconn, you can come to your brother, let's do it ourselves, and have enough food and clothing."
Listening to Fang Yi's words, Chen Weihua's head suddenly became much more sober, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, just kidding, just kidding", but Fang Yi's joke left a deep window in Chen Weihua's mind.
On the evening of November 7, in the conference room of Guancheng Century Group, the relevant person in charge of Century Group and Foxconn personnel started the first formal meeting on the cooperation between the two companies.
Because the current production demand of Century Technology is mainly small C, various production processes and processes have been formulated, and only one copy is needed according to the current production situation in Yangcheng.
On November 8, the Foxconn team drafted a cooperation plan after inspecting the energy stability, tax policy, and preferential policies of the processing zone in the processing zone, and reached an agreement after discussion with Fang Yi and the Century team, and the wholly-owned company was named: Century OEM, because Fang Yi knew that after a few years, Foxconn would be caught in the whirlpool of employees jumping off the door, so he resolutely disagreed to add the word Foxconn to the company's name, with Century Group holding 55% of the shares and Foxconn holding 45% of the shares.
At the beginning of the establishment of the new company, Century Group was responsible for the construction of the factory and the construction of related employee infrastructure outside the processing zone, the recruitment of the first batch of workers, the provision of production equipment by Foxconn, and the later production management.
On November 9, after the Foxconn team left two preparatory personnel, the rest of the personnel left Shudu, and the two Foxconn personnel left behind became the first batch of employees of Century OEM, who will cooperate with the construction team to carry out construction management and infrastructure planning for the factory.
After negotiating a cooperation agreement with Foxconn and obtaining a memorandum of understanding related to cooperation, Fang Yi asked Zheng Rongjun to help him make an appointment with Vice Mayor Wu, who was in charge of the economy.
When Vice Mayor Wu heard that Fang Yi had reached a relevant cooperation intention with Foxconn, on November 10, Fang Yi met Vice Mayor Wu in the Shudu Municipal Government, and said happily as soon as he met Vice Mayor Wu. Comrade Xiao Fang, the efficiency of your Century Company is very fast, it has only been a week, you have reached a cooperation with the famous OEM company in Baodao, you young people are energetic to do things, unlike us who are older, we have to think about everything before and after, often wait until all kinds of conditions are ripe, but the best time has passed."
Fang Yi took out the memorandum of cooperation with Foxconn and said to Vice Mayor Wu, "Vice Mayor Wu, this is our preliminary document with Foxconn, in this document, we, you will take a look first, the specific all-hands will be formally signed by the Hong Kong branch of our Century Investment Company after they report to the board of directors of their group."
Vice Mayor Wu took the memo and read it, put down the document after five minutes and said, "Xiaofang, according to your memo, I feel that you have a lot of plans for this processing zone in the south of the city."
Fang Yi smiled, "Vice Mayor Wu is really wise", then took the memo and pointed to it and said, "Vice Mayor Wu, look here, we want to build eight standard production lines in the processing area, according to the current production intensity of small C, each production line can produce 2,500 units per day, 8 lines can produce 20,000 units a day, and 600,000 units will be produced a month, because our products are exported to Europe and the United States, so it is conservatively estimated that the output value will reach 168 million US dollars"
Vice Mayor Wu heard that Fang Yi's monthly output value budget of 100 million US dollars will be 2 billion US dollars that year, and at the same time, how many jobs will be created, and what a huge political achievement it will be with the creation of catering and service industry opportunities.
Fang Yi looked at Vice Mayor Wu with a surprised face, and said without waiting for him to speak, "Vice Mayor Wu, according to our current design, we need to use 52 workers for one production line, so that 8 lines are 416 people, and then counting the relevant logistics service personnel, the entire factory will solve the employment of at least 500 people."
Fang Yi deliberately stopped when he said this, looked at Vice Mayor Wu, and then he didn't answer and looked at him with a smile, although Fang Yi had lived for more than 30 years in his previous life, but where was he the opponent of these politicians, he was defeated in Qi Cultivation Kung Fu, Vice Mayor Wu saw that Fang Yi didn't have the domineering attitude just now and said with a smile, "Comrade Xiao Fang, if you have any difficulties, just mention it, the government is your mother's family who has a business, and we will try our best to solve any problems for you."
Fang Yi also heard one of the words, "as much as possible", not certainly, and sometimes the difference between the words and these politicians may be more than 108,000 miles. Youli calculated for a moment and said, "Vice Mayor Wu, you also know that our small C is electronic products, we produce small C, but we do not produce all kinds of electronic components, once we build such a large factory in the processing area, there will be a lot of electronic component factories to settle here, Vice Mayor Wu, what a huge demand for talents?"
Vice Mayor Wu nodded while listening, he didn't have time for the benefits brought by this cooperative factory just now, and asked, "Xiaofang, then what kind of help do you need our government to provide you?"
Fang Yi waited for this sentence and said, "Vice Mayor Wu, I preliminarily estimate that when our factory starts production, the entire processing zone will increase at least 2,000 jobs compared with now, and I don't care about other cooperative factories, but I have to take care of the 500 employees of our company, and I would like to ask the government to set aside an area in the peripheral area of the processing zone to build a living area for employees to solve the worries of our employees." ”
Vice Mayor Wu thought about it and shouted to the secretary to bring up the map of Shudu, and two minutes later, Vice Mayor Wu looked at the map and said, "It is said that it is not big to solve the accommodation problem of 500 people, if it is built a little higher, there are two buildings that can be solved, so let's allocate 100 acres in this area to you, so that you can build 4 to 6 apartment buildings, which is close to Hongguang Town, and it will be more convenient to live and consume in the future."
Fang Yi looked at the map and nodded, and then Vice Mayor Wu hurriedly added, "Xiao Fang, although the place has been decided, whether you can get it or not, and how much money you will spend on an acre, this must be approved at the municipal party committee meeting, otherwise what you are talking about now is empty talk."
Fang Yi nodded in understanding and said, "Vice Mayor Wu, thank you, okay, I'll wait for your good news, Mayor Wu, take the liberty of asking, how much do you estimate I can approve for an acre?"
Vice Mayor Wu is in charge of the economy, and he still knows more about the land price, so he thought about it and said, "Although this place already belongs to the management of Xipu, because this is a processing area, according to the market price, the land price of this place will have to be 200,000 acres, and I will help you fight for it when the time comes, and try to get it at 100,000 yuan per mu."
Fang Yi smiled in front of Vice Mayor Wu and said, "Vice Mayor Wu, it would be better if you could get 50,000 yuan a mu."
Vice Mayor Wu felt Fang Yi's childish nature and said, "Then you might as well rob it, you don't want a penny like that."
Fang Yi looked at Vice Mayor Wu's appearance, estimated that 100,000 acres was their bottom limit, and said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll listen to Vice Mayor Wu, I'll go and grab 10 million to pay for the land, and now I have to contact the relevant construction company to help me build factories and apartment buildings, so I'll quit first."
Fang Yi really didn't expect to be able to get a piece of housing land in the government, and the land price was still 5% off, which made him deeply feel the government's determination to strengthen economic construction, and walked out of Vice Mayor Wu's office, Fang Yi didn't know that Secretary Zhang was not there now, turned a corner and came to the door of his office, saw Secretary Qian inside and asked, "Secretary Qian, is Secretary Zhang here?"
Qian Jun raised his head and saw that it was Fang Yi and said, "It's Mr. Fang, now Secretary Zhang has a guest, but it will be over in ten minutes, why are you in trouble?"
Fang Yi pondered for a moment and asked, "Actually, I don't need to find Secretary Zhang, I don't know if Secretary Qian is familiar with a construction company, and I want the kind of company that does the project with reliable quality."
