Chapter 216 Factories in Taiwan
Chen Lang still has some ideas about the company's department configuration, but in order to be able to win the two companies as soon as possible, he will make concessions.
Of course, these ideas will definitely not affect the development of the company, but I am afraid that the two companies will distrust them, so these ideas can only be postponed and discussed in detail when Chen Lang comes to Taiwan to promote the record.
After the discussion on the division of specific departments and personnel in the company, Chen's father said, "Mr. Zheng, do you have any thoughts on the problem of vinyl record factory?" ”
Zheng Zhengkun was originally full of joy because Haishan got out of the predicament and was able to cooperate with many elites of Rolling Stone, but now when he heard Chen's father mention the problem of the vinyl record factory, he instantly frowned.
Zheng Zhengkun sighed and said, "Although records are still the main carrier of the music market, there have been more convenient and cheaper music carriers such as video tapes, not to mention the emergence of CDs, a new music communication medium, I am afraid that records will no longer be the carrier of music in the future."
Now the company's vinyl record factory because of the huge investment at that time, the production capacity is very high, I am afraid that all the records in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia will be handed over to the factory for production, and the output task can be completed in time.
It's just that the company's condition is not good now, and now there are countless vinyl records piled up in the factory's warehouse, and the factory has been shut down for more than half a year. ”
Hearing Zheng Zhengkun's words, Chen's father and Chen Shufen both frowned slightly.
Chen Lang and everyone have seen the development trend of the music record market becoming more and more prosperous, and the profits of the music market are also eye-catching.
Coupled with the acquisition of Seamount and Rolling Stone, the vast distribution channels and high-quality music talents, everyone is full of confidence and feels that they will be able to quickly occupy a place in the record market.
It's only now that after the acquisition, I realize that the situation is a little complicated.
There is nothing wrong with Rolling Stone Records, after all, it is just a grassroots record company, except for a few music producers/songwriters and singers signing contracts, the assets are almost negligible, and it can be directly moved to Haishan Records.
Haishan Company has a perfect distribution channel, but the talent is withering, fortunately, there is a talent supplement from Rolling Stone Records, and now it will only take some time to run in the staffing, and the biggest problem is the vinyl record factory that has led to the decline of Haishan Records.
The overcapacity of the factory is a great waste.
But even if the newly established Haishan Rolling Stone Records re-emerges as the number one hegemon of Taiwan's record companies, it does not need such a huge production capacity.
Even if you add in the production of records from other companies, I am afraid that there will be waste.
And it would take a lot of money to support such a large factory, and it would probably have brought down the nascent Haishan Rolling Stones.
"Mr. Zheng, if Haishan Rolling Stone Records becomes one of the giants of Taiwanese record companies again, how much do you think we need to keep the current factory?" Father Chen looked at Zheng Zhengkun and asked solemnly.
After all, this vinyl factory is the biggest problem of the company now, and if it is not solved well, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles.
Hearing Chen's father's words, Zheng Zhengkun sighed in his heart, knowing that the vinyl factory might face the possibility of being dismembered, and he was very sorry in his heart.
However, he himself understands that this is a problem that the new company must solve, otherwise the new company is likely to fall into the quagmire again because of this bottomless pit.
Zheng Zhengkun said bitterly, "Even if it becomes Taiwan's No. 1 record company, I'm afraid it only needs 30% of the factory's total production capacity." ”
Hearing this, Father Chen continued to ask, "What if you become one of the giants of Asian record labels?" ”
Zheng Zhengkun, Chen Shufen and the Duan brothers were shocked when they heard Chen's father's words, it seems that their little boss has a lot of ambition and actually wants to become a giant in Asian record companies.
But now everything is unknown, no one thought that Chen Lang would be able to buy Haishan, a seriously ill giant, so who can say what the future holds.
Zheng Zhengkun suppressed his surprise, thought about it seriously and analyzed, "The current record market can be said to be more and more prosperous, and the sales of records will definitely continue to grow rapidly in the next few years."
However, it is not yet known how much of an impact the cassette tapes and the new CDs will have an impact on record sales.
If our company really becomes one of the giants of Asian record labels in the future, it is conservatively estimated that it will only need about 60% of the current vinyl record factory capacity. ”
After listening to Zheng Zhengkun's words, everyone had to be shocked by his courage at that time.
In the mid-to-late 70s, the record market was not as prosperous as it is now, and at that time, it dared to invest in the construction of the largest vinyl record factory in Asia, which shows the domineering and brilliant nature of Haishan at that time.
It's just that I didn't expect this move to become a bottomless pit for the seamount, pulling the seamount down to the top to the bottom.
Now Chen Lang has acquired Haishan, and it has become a hot potato for the new company.
Chen's father frowned and seriously thought about his son's words before he came to Taiwan.
The other four people present also stared at Father Chen and did not speak.
For the new company now, the handling of the vinyl record factory is crucial.
Although the management of the company has been handed over to them, the real issues that may be related to the development and survival of the company are still to let the boss make a decision.
And this question is like a hot potato, and they are not good or afraid to make decisions.
Father Chen saw the serious expressions of the other four people, thought for a while and said, "Regarding the disposal of the vinyl record factory, Lang Lang thinks that 70% of the current factory production capacity will be retained, and the remaining 30% of the machinery and equipment and other assets can be disposed of at a low price, and the money recovered will still be used for the development of the company." ”
"I can help with the operation if it is handled at a low price, but now our company needs 70% capacity?" Zheng Zhengkun was a little surprised and a little puzzled when he heard Chen's father's words
The rest of the people are also puzzled, after all, the company now only needs less than 30% of the production capacity, and the remaining 40% is so idle?
"Lang Lang is very confident in you and is very optimistic about the future development of the company, so he decided to keep 70% of the factory.
The remaining 30% of the vacant factories and workers will not be idle, and Lang Lang decided to transform the vinyl record factory into a mold factory and a toy factory to produce entertainment peripheral products. ”
Chen's father said Chen Lang's plan, although he didn't know if his son's plan would succeed, but all he could do was unwavering trust and support.
"Does Lang Lang want the factories around the product to open Lang Lang Qiankun to Taiwan at the same time?" Chen Shufen asked when she heard Chen's father's words.
As Chen Lang's agent, I still know a lot about Chen Lang's product peripheral profit sharing and Lang Lang's store, so I also guessed Chen Lang's thoughts.
