Chapter 16: United Proton
Zhao Kuo, like Zhao Hongbing,In fact, they are self-made Tangcheng entrepreneurs,But because of a late start,It is not the leader in the Tangcheng color TV industry,And in the recent color TV price war,It didn't take too much advantage。
Recently, because the market has been compressed, there are already some signs of imminent closure.
Zhao Hongbing, who is the same Zhao family at the same time, is not only to chat with this big brother of the same clan and clan, but also to be able to save Puteng in danger.
In Zhao Kuo's office in Huaqiangnan, Zhao Hongbing took Da Zhuang to see him.
Zhao Kuo is about the same age as Huang Tao, and he has just passed the age of not being confused, but the vicissitudes on his face are a lot more than Huang Tao, because Puton's business is sluggish this year, he is also sighing again and again, if it weren't for Chen Canghai strategizing behind, it is estimated that Puten would have been wiped out in Tangcheng companies.
"Brother Red Soldier, we are still distant relatives! Hahaha! Zhao Kuo laughed.
It turned out that in the process of chatting with each other, Zhao Hongbing found that the two also had some blood ties with distant relatives, so they were naturally much happier, and the atmosphere of chatting was also a lot more comfortable.
"Brother Kuo, in this price war, you Puteng should also gain a lot!" Zhao Hongbing asked.
Zhao Hongbing was naturally not particularly clear about some of the internal situations in Puteng, so he asked in front of Zhao Kuo.
Unexpectedly, it was okay not to ask, but as soon as Zhao Kuo asked, his face began to gloomy.
Fortunately, Zhao Kuo is also an elegant and decent boss, and he didn't directly attack Zhao Hongbing, but his attitude was not as good as just now.
"Alas! Brother Red Soldier, today we will only talk about private matters, not official affairs, okay? Zhao Kuo euphemistically put forward his own ideas.
As soon as Zhao Hongbing heard this, he felt that there must be some problems, so he didn't continue to talk about it.
The two chatted casually about some genealogies and the past of their hometown, and Zhao Hongbing said goodbye to each other and went home with Da Zhuang.
"Brother Bing, was Zhao Kuo a little angry just now, but because he didn't know you very well, he didn't show it in person." Da Zhuang asked.
"Even you can see it, do you think I don't know, Brother Bing? His Proton should really have a problem, and this is the time for us to talk about cooperation, but of course, there must be some sincerity, and I plan to invest some money in their side as well. Zhao Hongbing continued.
"Throwing money? Still investing money? You first gave Zhang Xiao 1.2 million yuan to buy equipment, and now our company doesn't have much, be cautious! Da Zhuang persuaded him.
For Zhao Hongbing, he naturally knew that Da Zhuang said this, also for the sake of Feitong, but also for his own sake, but if he didn't cooperate with Proton now and didn't inject some fresh vitality into Proton, Proton would really be finished!
Moreover, Kangle, Feihong and other giants in the color TV industry are also coveting Proton's human resources, especially Chen Canghai, a big man, he is a person who can't be poached by Shen Juyi, the boss of Kangle, who spends an annual salary of five million!
If Kang Le really buys Puteng,Then Chen Canghai also has to work for Shen Juyi,In this way,Zhao Hongbing wants to get involved in the domestic color TV industry,It will be even more difficult!
The more he thought about these things, the more Zhao Hongbing felt that the matter of injecting capital into Puten could not be delayed.
When he thought about these things, he was always so worried that he couldn't sleep, until the next day, he got good news from Zhongsheng's side.
It turned out that the shareholders of Zhongsheng distributed dividends in the middle of the year and distributed 700,000 funds to Zhao Hongbing, and all of a sudden, Zhao Hongbing had nearly one million more cash in his hands.
Although this money is not very much, if you have this money, you will have the confidence to talk to Zhao Kuo about cooperation.
He did not hesitate, directly drafted a letter of intent for cooperation, and then visited Zhao Kuo again.
This visit was different from the last time, because Zhao Kuo knew that Zhao Hongbing had no money, but he had just pulled some homely words in the past, and he had said enough last time, so he couldn't refuse, so the secretary rejected Zhao Hongbing.
Zhao Hongbing, who was turned away, was really a little unhappy, and he felt a little helpless with the letter of intent for cooperation in his hand.
When he turned around and was about to leave, he thought of the oath he made to Lao Zhang when he left Yangcheng.
"That's right! I can't get out of here if I can't make a difference! ”
He regained his strengths and stayed directly outside Proton's chairman's office, reluctant to leave.
No matter how Secretary Zhao Kuo persuaded him, Zhao Hongbing was unwilling to go.
Even some Proton employees felt that Zhao Hongbing was too cheeky, and everyone thought that he was selling insurance, so they directly entangled Zhao Kuo.
"Why is this man like this! Mr. Zhao rejected him, and he is still here with a dead face, which is really not ashamed! ”
"It is said that he is also a boss surnamed Zhao, I'm afraid that Mr. Zhao owes him money, otherwise why would he have been here?"
After hearing these words, Zhao Hongbing also felt insulted, but he still held back.
And Zhao Kuo waited for half an hour, and just happened to come out to go to the toilet, and found that Zhao Hongbing was still waiting outside.
"Red soldiers? You...... Why are you still here? Zhao Kuo said with some surprise.
Zhao Hongbing walked over solemnly, directly handed over the letter of intent for cooperation to Zhao Kuo, and said: "Brother Kuo, I plan to inject one million into Puteng, I don't know if you can consider it?" ”
At that moment, Zhao Kuo's hand holding the cooperation book trembled a little.
"You...... What did you say? Zhao Kuo was a little incredulous.
"Is Brother Kuo too little for a million? Hehe, in fact, I will inject capital in the follow-up, but it will take a while, so Brother Kuo ......" Zhao Hongbing hadn't finished speaking, and Zhao Kuo hugged him directly.
"Good brother! Come, come in, talk slowly! Zhao Kuo said excitedly.
Subsequently, the two discussed in the office for an afternoon and directly agreed on the intention of the two sides to cooperate, but the detailed cooperation plan must be approved by the board of directors of Proton, especially Chen Canghai.
"Red soldier, another day when Elder Chen comes back from Germany, I will introduce you to meet him, you and he will definitely hit it off!" Zhao Kuo said happily.
"Then thank you Brother Ko!" Zhao Hongbing was naturally very happy.
For this veteran boss in the color TV industry, who is known as the "father of Huaxia color TV", Zhao Hongbing has long wanted to visit him.
But Chen Canghai is an old man with a lot of personality, he doesn't see high-ranking officials and nobles, he doesn't see wealthy gentry and giants, he only sees people who can have a common topic with him, even if Shen Juyi wants to find him, he has been politely rejected by him many times.
Zhao Kuo understood that Zhao Hongbing was a young man with foresight, so he thought about introducing him to Chen Canghai.
