Two minutes later, I received the contact information sent to me by Yuan Wei, as well as the address and name of the raw material company.

I called the other person, and while I waited for it to be connected, I habitually lit a cigarette.

Because when I am nervous, I have become accustomed to holding a cigarette in my mouth, which can effectively relieve the tension in my heart.

When the phone was connected, I immediately said, "Hello, is it Mr. Gu from Ruian Textile Factory?" ”

"I am, who are you?" A muffled voice came from the other end of the line.

"Hello Mr. Gu, I am Chen Feng from Yuanfeng Group."

"Boss Chen?!" The other party was surprised, "Why did you call me?" Can I help you? Boss Chen. ”

"Mr. Gu, that's the case, don't we still owe you a sum of money on our side? I don't know if Mr. Gu has time today? How about we meet and talk? ”

The other party was silent for a while before he said to me, "Yes." ”

"Okay, then I'll come to your factory to find you now, is it convenient for you now?"

"It's convenient, just call me when Boss Chen arrives at the place."

I answered, ended the call, grabbed the car keys on my desk and left the office.

The other party's factory is quite far away, it is in the suburbs, and I drove for nearly an hour before finally coming to the Ruian Textile Factory.

There is an industrial park nearby, and there are many large and small factories and mines, and everything is done.

After the gate of the textile factory, I called Mr. Gu and told him that I had arrived at the gate of the factory.

After waiting for a few minutes, I saw a middle-aged man in his forties wearing glasses, trotting towards the factory entrance.

After coming to me, he said with a smile on his face, "Is it Boss Chen?" ”

I nodded, and he greeted warmly, "Boss Chen, please come with me." ”

I immediately followed him into the factory, and he also enthusiastically introduced me to him, saying that he planned to expand after this round of economic crisis, and it happened that his daughter had also returned from abroad, which could help improve the specifications of raw materials.

On the way to his office, he told me a lot, and I could clearly feel that he was full of hope for the future of the factory.

But it's harder for me, and I'm afraid he won't take my advice.

However, I still want to give it a try because it's really a great way to get the best of both worlds.

When I got to his office, he made me a cup of tea, and we sat down on the couch and talked.

He enthusiastically handed me a cigarette and said with a smile: "I have long heard of Mr. Chen's reputation, and today I see that he is really young and promising." ”

I sneered: "Mr. Gu has won the award." ”

"Alas, there is one thing to say, I don't like flattery, I tell the truth."

In fact, his whole person gave me the impression that he was very positive, and he was very enthusiastic, Yuan Wei said that he was a good person, and I could see it.

After chatting casually for a while, I'm going to get straight to the point.

After taking a sip of tea, I finally asked him, "Mr. Gu, I heard that your factory's efficiency has not been very good recently, right?" ”

Mr. Gu paused, sighed softly and said, "Yes, in the current environment, business is not very good, it depends on whether you can survive this cold winter." ”

Of course, I also did some understanding before I came, and of course I would not come to him to talk to him without knowing anything about it.

I nodded and said with a serious face: "As far as I know, many textile factories like yours have begun to merge with garment factories, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”

Mr. Gu nodded and replied: "Yes, there are two textile factories in our park that have merged with the garment factories they have cooperated with for a long time, and I heard that the benefits are not bad now." ”

I changed my sitting posture and said, "Then does Mr. Gu have such thoughts?" ”

I'm sure he, as the director of a factory, will understand what I mean, and that's why I came to him.

That's right, merge.

I need to merge the raw material factory and the garment factory, so it will be a good thing not only for me, but also for Mr. Gu.

Sure enough, after I said this, Mr. Gu fell silent.

I was not in a hurry to ask for an answer, and then said: "Mr. Gu, let me first tell you about the current strategic development of our company!" ”

He looked at me and nodded, as if interested in hearing me continue.

I took a sip of tea before continuing, "We are currently opening up foreign markets, and we can say that we have put all of our experience into the construction of overseas markets...... In addition, I am confident that we will completely open the foreign market within a month, and then the main marketing strategies will be inclined to foreign countries, and our own brands will also be upgraded. ”

I say this to give him hope and let him know that merging with us is only better, not worse.

After listening carefully, he asked me with a serious face: "Mr. Chen, the foreign market is not so easy to open!" Can you completely open it in a month? ”

I nodded heavily and replied with a smile: "That's right, I don't know if Mr. Gu has heard of Olan International?" We're already working together now. ”

"Olam International?" Mr. Gu took a breath of cold air and said, "I haven't heard of this, and I don't know much about these foreign trade companies." ”

"You can go and find out that Olam International is now a newly established foreign trade company in China, although it is newly established, but they have a large market abroad."

Mr. Gu nodded, and then asked me again: "So Mr. Chen, your idea is to let us merge with your company's garment factory, right?" ”

I nodded and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Gu, I really won't tell you that the current situation of our company is also quite difficult...... I didn't plan to hide it when I came to you today, but to be honest, it was an economic crisis. ”

Mr. Gu smiled faintly, took a sip of tea and said, "Is there economic pressure on a large company like yours?" ”

"Yes." I nodded heavily.

Mr. Gu was silent again, I was actually quite anxious, because looking at his face, he didn't seem to want to agree to me.

Sure enough, he laughed and said to me: "Mr. Chen, with all due respect, I am a small factory, and there have been big bosses who wanted to buy us before, but I refused...... The reason is that I don't want to do big business, I'm almost fifty years old now, and my daughter has graduated, so I really don't want to fight like I did when I was younger. ”

He was already rejecting me in disguise, and if I was interested, I wouldn't have to continue talking.

But the biggest advantage of me is that I don't want to give up easily, I changed my sitting posture and smiled and said: "Mr. Gu, I understand what you said, but on the way to your office just now, the words you said to me prove that you still want to fight again before you retire, doesn't it?" ”

Mr. Gu looked at me and said after a while: "I want to create some opportunities for my daughter." ”

"That's right, you know, the textile industry in our country is world-class at the moment...... However, our country's own brand is pitiful, we need to build our own brand, we need to promote domestic production to the world...... It's a little contribution to the country, isn't it? ”

The reason why I said this suddenly was because I noticed the party flag on his desk, so it proves that Mr. Gu must be a party member.

Sure enough, after I said this, his expression gradually deepened, and he began to ponder......
