"I don't know if I'm observing correctly. The general process of our company - you find business opportunities, and gradually establish foreign trade, capital, transportation and other links. Then we will sign the order, outsource, find an agent, and so on according to your instructions. It's pretty much the same for imports and exports. Since the current sales are quite good, all the employees of the company do not feel anything. Until you suddenly find a new business opportunity......"

"Hmm." Li Yuan smiled and nodded, encouraging Yan Ji to continue.

"In this case, why don't you send more people to discover business opportunities? I believe there are many commodities worth trading. And there are many empty spaces. For example, in the largest Western and Eastern European markets, we have almost nothing. There is also the headquarters of Liyuan. Now in addition to some regular daily necessities and small commodities exported to Russia, Africa, there are also some timber imports? Almost nothing else? ”

"And what do you want to do?"

"If you can, can you recruit dozens of people? How many offices do you have outside? Yan Ji hurriedly explained,

"We have our own fleet and banks in Hong Kong. The import and export trade with those agents is inherently advantageous? Li Yuan touched his chin and carefully considered Yan Ji's suggestion.

Different from the future era of online shopping, the current foreign trade import and export has not been flattened. Generally speaking, after the domestic manufacturers produce goods, the domestic foreign trade companies have a hand, the foreign foreign trade import companies have a hand, the large wholesalers have a hand, and then the small wholesalers, retailers, and finally to the hands of users.

In this way, it's normal to double, right? It is quite possible to multiply it several times. And there are too many intermediate links, and each link will reduce the price.

As a result, domestic foreign trade orders are three melons and two dates, which can only be shoddy. Later, it was generally right abroad

"Madeina" has a bad impression. In addition to the fact that there are indeed a lot of profiteers in China, the main reason is that the price is too ruthless - you especially give this price, do you still want to ensure quality and quantity?

It's almost enough to make do with it! The other is the inconsistency of the market. Now globalization has not taken shape at all, and e-commerce has not even had a shadow.

Europe, for example: they don't even have the European Union yet. Want to do foreign trade? You can only run one country at a time.

And the current international trade network is extremely incomplete. East Asian first-mover countries like Japan and South Korea, as well as the Four Little Dragons and the Four Little Tigers, are basically controlled by domestic chaebols.

Internally, it is the internal procurement of the chaebol group, and externally, it is to sell it as a whole. It needs to be noted here: for the chaebol itself, such a model would bring great benefits.

It is possible to ingest excess profits. Internally, it can be unified procurement, as far as possible to squeeze domestic small and medium-sized enterprises.

Externally, they can collectively raise prices and form a de facto monopoly position. is almost the same as the European and American countries, but in fact, it is also embarrassed.

But in such a business environment, it is extremely difficult for small businesses to survive, and it is even more impossible for a single person like a master.

Therefore, the penetration of goods in East Asia and Southeast Asia is not very deep. There are also big trading companies like Yoon Tochu, but it is difficult to see self-employed people in East and Southeast Asia.

Therefore, Japanese and Korean products such as home appliances, automobiles, and electronic products are indeed very famous all over the world.

But there aren't many others, and there is even a lot of room for local businesses to survive. However, a few decades later, there are many small commodity factories such as Yiwu on the one hand, and small Chinese shops everywhere abroad on the other, and there are several major e-commerce factories in the middle?

The entire sales chain has been completely opened. How can this fight? Did all the money go to the Chinese grandsons?

Therefore, some foreign countries later issued new laws - strictly prohibiting non-nationals from entering the retail industry, or even refusing electronic payments?

It will even cause ridicule from some anchors in China? In fact, there is really no way, you Chinese also want to reward us with a mouthful of food!

That's it. But back to now, this foreign trade ecology is a little abnormal. That's why Li Yuan can casually glance at it and find a business opportunity.

In fact, the same is true for other people. It's really not an exaggeration, but then there was a Chinese who discovered this very strange phenomenon in a certain country?

Why is there such a big difference with the domestic price? So it was directly wholesaled in Yiwu, and then directly wholesaled to local sellers...... In just a few years, it has entered the top 20 of a country's import and export trade!

Don't think it's a very small country. That country is called France! Can you believe it? There are a lot of French multinationals, right?

Can it still be in the top 20? Of course, after many more years, his business became struggling. A large wave of Chinese people ran over as if they smelled something fishy and began to roll up frantically...... But in any case, one is the flattening of the sales level; One is a small commodity supplier like Yiwu.

No matter how the cost is deducted, it is impossible to lower the cost of each small commodity than those professional small manufacturers.

The last one is the Chinese retailer. Almost put

"Madeina" is sold to every corner. Later, it came to the domestic world factory. It seems to be talking about domestic industrialization, labor quality and cost, and all industrial categories, etc.

But on the other hand, such a sales network is also extremely important! Not every product is a product of a multinational company like Apple, Tesla or Sony, who can build their own global sales network.

There are many that need the underlying ecology like ants moving. Therefore, India and Yin Lang still have some hope.

First of all, they industrialized, no matter how primitive it was; Secondly, they had a group of Indian merchants and Arab merchants, who were as hard-working as the Chinese.

You really can't underestimate it. Of course, whether it will succeed in the end is only known to God. …… Straight to the point.

Li Yuan suddenly found that this flat sales model is indeed worth a try! Anyway, the labor cost is not very high, and I can afford it, and even be able to bear the cost of trial and error.

To put it mildly, even if you can't make money, you can still earn a lot of service fees through your own shipping and your own bank.

Take another 10,000 steps back and say, as long as such a logistics network is established, after entering the era of e-commerce, why not lie down and make money?

Thinking of this, Li Yuan smiled and said, "Xiaoyan, your idea is very good. Just set up a special ...... Liyuan Trading. You are in charge for the time being. Yan Ji was happy on her face: "Thank you, Yuan Shao......" Li Yuan smiled and waved his hand: "But I have a request, you seem to be a little conservative." ”

"Huh? Guard? ”
