768 Africa, Here We Come (1)
"Brother Yun, it's not that I won't help you with this matter, after I came back from Rongcheng last year, I contacted the heads of some state-owned mines with better relations, and they are not very interested in this......" Regarding Yun Fei's one or two hundred million orders, Song Shihui could only smile bitterly.
Yun Fei offended a lot of bigwigs, the equipment of those state-owned mines is extremely old and must be replaced, but their responsible persons can't be the masters at all, I heard that it was the people above who greeted them and asked them to purchase all kinds of mining equipment in state-owned factories.
The so-called procurement in state-owned factories, discerning people know that it is to boycott the Hongqi Machinery Factory under Yunshi Holdings.
In Hongqi Machinery Factory, mining equipment occupies a very large proportion.
If there is not enough business support, it is necessary to have a blood transfusion from Jiuyi Group, in fact, it is mainly a blood transfusion from Jiuyi Heavy Industry.
"Aren't they very interested? That's weird! Yun Fei was stunned.
"You know, Minmetals is the largest in China to engage in mining equipment, they not only have their own mines, steel plants, but also supporting machinery manufacturing plants...... Song Shihui said with a wry smile.
Minmetals is a giant, and most of the mines in China are theirs.
"Minmetals, so what? Does the Ministry of Mines still require these mines to use their equipment? This is a market economy, not the previous era of planned economy"! Yun Fei said with a sneer.
The people in the Ministry of Machinery Industry basically wore a pair of pants with those guys from the Ministry of Mining, and when he heard Song Shihui's words, he immediately realized that those guys were boycotting themselves.
"That's what those private mine owners mean, too?"
Song Shihui smiled bitterly and nodded.
If he hadn't signed a contract with Hongqi Machinery Factory last year, it is estimated that Yun Fei would not have been able to get a penny of the contract.
In China, many businesses are not decided by the market, and the power and will of the state can be reflected in various places. Those bigwigs are estimated to be because they cut prices in the machine tool industry last year. It's embarrassing for them, waiting for them here.
The major machinery factories in China basically have a very good relationship with those steel-making plants, and many of the leaders of the Ministry of Machinery Industry and the Ministry of Mining are from these state-owned factories.
Since Song Shihui explained everything, Yun Fei didn't need to discuss this issue with the heads of those state-owned mining companies, but went directly to the northeast, and he couldn't even care about Song Shihui inviting him to eat bear paws.
"The current situation is like this, the aerospace machinery and equipment factory next door to us can get a lot of business, but we can't get any orders...... "The shape is very serious, if the Hongqi Machinery Factory can't get new orders." It has not yet fully resumed work, and it will be shut down again in a few months.
Just the business of slow wire cutting, so far only more than 100 sales contracts have been signed, and there are only more than 100 million orders.
"Message confirmed?" In China for so many years, Myron also knows that many things in China are not according to market rules.
Just like last year's bid for the Three Gorges Project, the production prices of some machinery parts at the Dongqi and Northeast Steam Turbine Factories in Chengdu were 30 percent higher than those quoted by foreign countries.
"Yes. Not to mention the state-owned mining companies, the private mines in Jinxi and Inner Mongolia are not willing to talk to us about equipment procurement, and the equipment price of Minmetals is too high. makes him prefer to use more manpower to do this...... "Yun Fei talked to many private mine owners when he was in Jinxi.
The management department above spoke, if they still purchase equipment from Hongqi Machinery Factory, they will be wearing small shoes sooner or later, right?
"If this is the case, Hongqi Machinery will have to turn around. Such a large factory, in addition to engaging in construction machinery...... "Jiang Jianxing still wants to engage in construction machinery very much, and Sany Heavy Industry in southern Hunan has developed very prosperously in recent years. He looked very hot-eyed.
Moreover, Hongqi Machinery Factory has this foundation, it is a large-scale machinery factory that produces various engineering equipment, all kinds of excavators, bulldozers and some winches, pump trucks, concrete tankers and other things that are needed to engage in real estate, and the technical level is average, and the production cost is too high.
This is the most fundamental reason for the loss of the Hongqi Machinery Factory.
"In this case, our plan here must be adjusted, and the business of engineering vehicle production must continue...... Wu Zhongda doesn't care about Yun Fei's strategy of concentrating on one direction at the beginning.
The most important thing now is to turn a profit first.
Yun Fei has reduced the burden on the bigwigs of the Ministry of Machinery Industry, but it has increased the burden on Jiuyi Group itself.
Jiuyi material factory relocated to Guocheng, will not produce profits within a quarter, and their equipment renewal and scale expansion, all need Jiuyi heavy industry blood transfusion, Jiuyi aviation last year rare turnaround, but the entire company's profit is only more than 400,000......
And logistics companies, even if the annual cost of the warehousing center is very low, so far, it is still in the investment period and has not generated any profits.
"Indeed, the company's engineering vehicle business cannot be abandoned...... Jiang Jianxing agrees.
The main business of Jiuyi Group, the manufacturing and sales of CNC machine tools, can not always give blood transfusion to other enterprises, because there are too many industries that need blood transfusion of Jiuyi Heavy Industry, and the development of Jiuyi Heavy Industry is strictly restricted.
At present, Jinling Heavy Industry and Jinling Foundry are still waiting for funds to update equipment and expand the plant.
"There is no problem with business recovery, but it must be produced under the premise of having orders, not after it has been produced and then go to the market. In addition, mining machinery is still our main business! This is where we are strategically headed. Yun Feidan said bitterly.
"This needs a market, and now those guys from the Ministry of Mining are holding us back, if we go to them, they will definitely not admit it. There is no market, let's ......," Jiang Jianxing said depressedly.
"I think we have to change our thinking. For a long time, our focus on the market is in the country, but many things, the international market is the largest share! Yun Feiyan said to the three absolute cores in front of him.
"Internationally? The international market is monopolized by European and American mining equipment, and it is not easy for us to grab food from their mouths in China......" Jiang Jianxing heard Yun Fei's words, and the market share in the international market is indeed much larger than that in China.
If Jiuyi Group wants to continue to develop, it is far from enough to rely on the domestic market share.
Yun Fei has been focusing on estimating the market since ninety-five years, and then began to lay out, in order to enter the international market, even at the expense of giving a large piece of fat to the Dutch, they are very clear.
"Not all places in the world are valued by international companies. They pay attention to the big mines, some small mines, and they simply don't pay attention to them. This is our chance......" Yun Fei said with a smile.
If China wants to develop, it can only start from those places that European and American countries do not pay attention to.
"You mean Africa?" Jiang Jianxing's brows furrowed.
Africa is home to countless small mines, and the owners simply can't afford to use the big mining equipment......
"Not only in Africa, but also in South America and Australia, there are many small mines, and these are our opportunities!" Most of the industries in which Chinese companies enter the international market are using Africa as a springboard.
"Boss, I understand, I started to organize the company's salesmen to expand business in Africa...... Wu Zhongda said happily.
"Although I personally don't like English, but English is the international lingua franca, the salesman we send out must understand technology, but also understand the language, just translation is not enough, there are a lot of college students in Hongqi Machinery Factory, let Zhu Yuanyuan immediately implement this matter, English must be able to conduct proficient conversations, how can technology be able to fool people's level......"
A good salesperson must be able to have a ruthless role that can sell the land of the moon and the private life!
"What's wrong wife? Who's messing with you again? When Wu Fan came home from work, he saw his wife Fu Chunmei sitting in the living room watching TV with an unhappy face, and she didn't cook, so she couldn't help but feel a little big.
This menopausal woman is unaffordable. Especially for women who are laid off during menopause, it is even more unprovoked. Fu Chunmei used to be a small leader of the logistics department of Hongqi Machinery Factory, because after Hongqi Machinery Factory was acquired by Jiuyi Group, the company carried out large-scale layoffs, and nearly half of the people were laid off at once......
The child is not at home from school, and there is no one to help him share the anger of the idle menopausal woman, these days......
"No one messes with me, don't cook tonight, if you're hungry, go outside and have a bite to eat......"
"Honey, didn't you go to a class reunion today? Are you unhappy with your classmates again? Wu Fan sighed, ready to cook by himself, there was nothing in the refrigerator except for a bowl of porridge left in the morning, and there was nothing in the cupboard - Fu Chunmei did not buy vegetables.
Fu Chunmei is a secondary school graduate of the factory, and she has not learned any technology, and there is no background in Hongqi Machinery, she has been busy taking care of the children and her family all these years, and the elderly are sick in the first two years, and they are fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, and it is natural to be laid off.
"Don't mention it, aren't they just married some men who sell tea and eggs, there are a few stinky money, and they actually get sรจ ...... in front of me" classmates in the first class, Fu Chunmei is not the most beautiful, but the man she is looking for is the most educated.
This used to make all my classmates envious, jealous and hateful.
But now it's different, to measure a person, that's measured by how much money you make.
In this era, it is recognized that those who engage in the atomic bomb are not as rich as those who sell tea and eggs. (To be continued......)
