Chapter 878: Fool or Wise (1st Update)
"Now there are not a few domestic car brands, but most of them are still concentrated in the low-end market, the mid-to-high-end market, and they are basically monopolized by foreign brands. But boss, the auto industry needs a lot of money, and you have to be mentally prepared to take a lot of risks. Hu Wanshan reminded.
"I naturally know this. I'm ready to poach skilled talent from the top car manufacturing companies. Liu Tao said.
"Now the technical talent is not cheap, the salary is quite high, we now have no brand, two no scale, if you want to poach people, I am afraid to pay several times higher wages than the other party. In this way, we don't have any cost advantage. Hu Wanshan said with some worry.
"Judging from the investment in the early stage, the cost will definitely not be low. However, in the long run, as long as the number of cars produced reaches a certain scale, the cost will be reduced accordingly, and we will still be profitable at that time. In addition, to be honest, I am a Chinese, I especially hope that my compatriots can drive a domestic car with better performance. Is it just because they worship foreigners? No, it's not like that, they all have a patriotic heart, and they also want to be able to buy domestic cars, but what did they not buy for? The main reason is that the quality of domestic cars makes them not at ease. If the quality of domestic cars is the same as that of foreign brand cars, I believe that they will definitely give preference to domestic cars. Liu Tao said confidently.
"Boss, I think we should do a market research before starting a company. Based on the results of market research, it is decided what kind of car to produce. Hu Wanshan suggested.
"No, you don't." Liu Tao shook his head. "The results of all market research can only prove one thing. That is, the donkey really has two ears. I believe in my own vision. ”
"Since the boss has made up his mind, I will definitely give it my full support, but boss, now the land resources in Binjiang City are very tight, and a lot of land is definitely needed to build a factory. Do you have any ideas? Hu Wanshan asked.
"I thought about this when I first came, and now there is definitely no place in the city, and the suburbs are almost occupied by various factories. I plan to open up a larger area in my hometown to invest in a factory. Liu Tao said.
"Isn't your hometown Binjiang?" Hu Wanshan asked.
"I'm from Binjiang, but my hometown is a village in Huayuan Town." Liu Tao replied.
"I see. Garden Town in the whole of Riverside City. It is the most backward township, where there are no enterprises and the economy is relatively backward. Hu Wanshan said.
"That's true. That's why I'm going to build the factory in Garden Town, where there is a lot of idle land, just enough to meet the needs of the factory land. Liu Tao said.
"Boss, have you told Secretary Cui about this? As long as he came forward to say hello to the town, the land would be vacated immediately. Hu Wanshan asked.
"Not yet, I called him yesterday and said something else. I'm going to wait until the funds are in place, and then I will proceed, and the technical talent is the most important issue. The supply of land is just trivial, Liu Tao said.
"Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it myself. There is no time at noon. Have a meal together. Liu Tao invited.
"I made an appointment at noon. Or I'll give them a call and make a new appointment. Hu Wanshan said.
Liu Tao said: "No. You're busy with yours first. I'll talk about it when I have time. ”
Hu Wanshan said: "Okay. I'll call you when I'm done. ”
Liu Tao nodded, and left the office first, and Hu Wanshan sent him downstairs.
Coming out of the headquarters of Guowei Group, Liu Tao made a call to Dragon Soul, asked where the other party was staying, and then drove over.
"It's not early, let's start." After Liu Tao arrived at the room where they were, he looked around at everyone and said slowly.
Then, he sat cross-legged with the dragon soul face to face, and then connected his palms. Liu Tao conveyed the true qi in the dantian into the other party's body, and at the same time told the other party to run this true qi method.
After almost half an hour, the dragon soul let out a sigh of relief. There was an indescribable refreshment in his heart.
"Now that I have helped you get through the second pulse of Ren Du, as long as you insist on practicing every day according to the exercise method I taught you, I believe you will soon be able to break through the first layer." Liu Tao said with a smile.
"Thank you for the cultivation." The dragon soul fell to the ground and knelt.
"You are all the elite of the Baolong clan, and as a young master, I have the responsibility to help you improve your strength. I hope you will not live up to my hopes, and you must study hard and strive to break through the first layer as soon as possible. Liu Tao said.
"Subordinates and others must do their best." Dragon Soul said.
Then, Liu Tao helped the two dragon guards also get through the second pulse of Ren Du. After such a period of consumption, there was not much true qi left in his body.
If an ordinary cultivator wants to re-condense so much true qi, it will definitely not work without a month, unless there are very rare medicinal materials around him, or he can only rely on his own cultivation to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth little by little to refine and replenish.
However, Liu Tao has the eye of the sky, so he doesn't need to work so hard. He stood in front of the window, the Heavenly Eye quickly activated, and the surrounding spiritual energy continued to enter his body through the Heavenly Eye. However, because the aura between heaven and earth is already very thin, this aura is far from enough. Then, he used the Heavenly Eye to absorb the aura of a few trees before filling the dantian.
Repeatedly, he opened up all the remaining Ren Du and Du two veins of Long Wei.
After completing these, Liu Tao said: "Dragon Soul, you have now learned the exercises I taught you, and all that remains is to improve your strength through continuous cultivation." I know that there are still some rare medicinal materials at the Dao Headquarters, and you can increase your cultivation by absorbing the aura in the medicinal materials after you go back. ”
"Young Master, do you mean to let me return to the headquarters?" The dragon soul asked.
"Yes." Liu Tao nodded and said, "You are grandpa's personal guard, I can't let you stay here for too long." In case something happens to his old man, you still have a care by your side. ”
"Subordinates obey." Dragon Soul said.
"I have other arrangements for the ten of them. Later, you will return to the headquarters by yourself, and I will take them back to my villa. Liu Tao said.
"Yes. The subordinate said goodbye. The dragon soul turned and left.
Then, Liu Tao took ten dragon guards to his villa and arranged for them to stay.
He had already planned in his heart that the main responsibility of this group of dragon guards was to protect the safety of his parents. If they encounter a cultivator like Agni, even if they can't defeat the other party, they can at least delay the other party's time, so that their parents can leave safely.
However, this batch of dragon guards was trained by him through his own ability, and if he lost too much, he would have to spend a lot of effort to retrain. Therefore, he needed to find a batch of rare medicinal materials to help them speed up their cultivation.
Just as he was thinking about how to get the herbs, his phone rang.
The call was from Fan Wenjuan.
On the phone, Ms. Fan said that a representative from the Cheung Kong Group was in her office and hoped that Ms. Liu would come over.
After Liu Tao hung up the phone, he immediately drove to the scene.
"Tao, let me introduce you to you. This is the manager of the investment department of Changjiang Group. Fan Wenjuan pointed to a long white and chubby man and said.
"Manager Dong, hello." Liu Tao said hello to the other party.
"Manager Dong, this is my boyfriend Liu Tao, who is also the chairman of the Future Investment Company." Fan Wenjuan then introduced.
"I didn't expect Liu Dong to be so young, it's really impressive." Manager Dong said.
"Manager Dong, let's go straight to the point. I understand that the purpose of your trip is to invest in our company, but I'm sorry, I'm not interested in investing. Liu Tao said bluntly.
"We also know that Future Investment is not short of money right now. We do want to take a stake, though. If you don't think the price is high enough, you can set another price. As long as we can accept it, we can talk about it. Manager Dong said.
"If I offer five billion and give you ten percent of the shares, will you be willing?" Liu Tao asked with a smile.
"Liu Dong really likes to joke. The market value of the future investment company is almost 1 billion, and if you follow your equity ratio, the market value of the future company will increase by almost 50 times. It seems that Liu Dong really doesn't want to talk about this business. Manager Dong said.
"Now you know what I mean, right? If nothing else, you can go. Liu Tao said lightly.
"Chairman Liu, although the price you quoted is very outrageous, I will still call the chairman to ask for his opinion." Manager Dong said.
"Whatever you want. Let's fight. Liu Tao shrugged his shoulders and put on an indifferent look.
Then, Manager Dong got up and went out to call the chairman of the group to report the situation.
As a result, in less than ten minutes, Manager Dong returned to Liu Tao and said very happily: "Our chairman has decided to accept your offer. ”
"Is your chairman sick? I wonder how he got to where he is now. According to his way of doing business, he should have starved to death a long time ago. Liu Tao said unceremoniously.
"To be honest, I don't understand why the chairman would do this. However, I believe that the chairman must have his intentions in doing this. Chairman Liu, you set a time, and the two sides will sign the agreement. At that time, the chairman will come to Binjiang in person. Manager Dong said.
"Such a good deal, sooner rather than later. Or tomorrow. Tomorrow at eight o'clock in the morning, right here in this place. Liu Tao thought for a moment and said.
"It's good. I'll go first and go back and prepare the documents I need to sign tomorrow. Manager Dong said.
"Yes." Liu Tao nodded.
After Manager Dong left, Liu Tao found that Fan Wenjuan was standing stupidly in place and not moving. He stepped forward and shoved the other party, and the other party came back to his senses. (To be continued......)
