Chapter 13 Warnings and Arrangements
Alas, those who engage in technology are more serious! You don't know that there will be a "cross-border crush" in the future!
"It's really not easy to answer Mr. Gross's question clearly, but fortunately, there is Mr. Schmidt, I didn't explain it, you can ask Mr. Schmidt." Let's make an alliance first.
"At the heart of the whole thing is not technology, it's a business issue." Let's characterize the problem first, "Mr. Puffer was still complimenting me on my good business sense just now...... As he spoke, he shrugged his eyebrows and gestured to Fred that he was a little smarter than him! The lady who was watching glared at me in disgust.
Hurriedly sat up straight and explained seriously: "A good sense of business is sensitive to changes in market demand, and I clearly feel that the armament is about to face huge business opportunities from the shooting competition, do you know how many troops will be equipped?" ”
"You know?" Mr. Gross asked.
I said, "Of course." "After saying that, I knew that it was not appropriate.
Sure enough, the butler asked, "Someone in the army told you?" ”
"Anyone dares to say, do I dare to listen? Mr. Puffre, business judgment and military secrets are two different things! When it comes to military secrets, people die. He said with some dissatisfaction.
"Do you dare to believe what others say? Just ask Mr. Schmidt! Besides, such a judgment of the scale of the business is a very simple matter for Mr. Schmidt. ”
"I want to hear your judgment!" Mr. Schmidt said.
"The purpose of rearmament is clear, it is a shame! You can count the number of British and French troops on the continent right now. ”
"Haha, good way! You haven't answered Gross's question yet. Mr. Schmidt said.
"Business opportunities don't treat everyone fairly, and the opportunity presented to Mr. Schmidt must not be an opportunity for me and Fred. Only long-range accurate shooting firearms are me and Fred, 100 people may only be equipped with 1 or 2, and an armament giant like Mr. Schmidt will not want to send him, weakening the focus on the main business, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”
"Not all opportunities you can take, not just for me and Fred! We made this gun, and we took our chance, otherwise it wouldn't be our chance. ”
"As for the fact that there are a lot of people who have a solution, so what? No matter how good the technology is without market demand, it has no commercial value; Even if you know how to do it and you happen to know the market opportunity as well as I do, so what? Whoever makes it first wins, the comparison is strength, they at least have the same strength as Mr. Schmidt! ”
"Mr. Gross, I don't know if it's clear?" Well, I'm tired!
Seeing that Gross was still pondering, Mr. Schmidt said: "The basic explanation is clear, and the understanding of business is good!" ”
As soon as he heard someone compliment, he began to show off to Fred again.
"Fang Wu, even if the output is not very large, it is not a small amount of money to invest in such a factory, will your grandfather support you?" Schmidt asked. I know I've passed the test, and it's time to move on to the next topic of discussion.
"Sir, I'm not going to tell Grandpa right now. We only run a company, not a factory! ”
"Be specific."
"If the trial production is successful, we will apply for a patent as soon as possible while applying for a patent as soon as possible. Under the protection of patents, we do not worry about others copying! We outsource all parts to other factories. The company is only responsible for assembly, marketing, and R&D. ”
"It is estimated that the start-up cost of the company will not be too large! However, the company will have to survive on the supply chain, especially for small batches, which will require the support of Mr. Schmidt's connections, and until the company relies on commercial interests to make the supply chain work. Of course, suppliers still have to be available at home and abroad, and in the future, whether to process the core components themselves will be discussed in the future. In other words, it is possible to grow up under the care of Mr. Schmidt. ”
"Haha, what do you need for trial production?"
"A firearms engineer you can trust, you need a gun tester, and who else needs to ask for engineers, venues, and funds."
"Well, you'll talk to Fred tomorrow. The firearms engineer is Mr. Gross. ”
"Welcome Mr. Gross to the board!" I said it with Fred.
"Here, let's have another drink!" That's when the luncheon is coming to an end.
When they all got up, Mr. Schmidt asked again: "Fang Wu, who is smarter between you and Fred?" ”
"Me!" I'm quick to talk.
The guy was so quick to respond: "Fang Wu, if you can give a good idea, I will recognize that you are smarter than me!" ”
"Okay, what's the trouble you're in?" As soon as they heard this topic, everyone stopped and watched.
"Come up with an idea, how can I meet the expectations of my father and mother at the same time?"
"How simple it is, find a competent manager to accompany your father to make money, marry a musician to accompany your mother to play the piano."
"What a bullshit idea!"
Ha ha.......
Schmidt smiled and said, "Well, the first idea doesn't work, the second one is good." ”
Madame immediately objected: "The first idea is good, the second is not." ”
"Look, it's all good."
"I can't say it anymore."
The housekeeper said: "It's better to go to the stadium to discuss, it's not good to touch dishes and bowls here!" ”
I sweated and lost a badminton game!
Butler: "Fang Wu, I'll send you!" He said goodbye to Fred. I guess I have something to say to me.
"Lost? Win next time! ”
"The stakes are a little bigger, and if you mention it in the future, you have to say that you are a little worse than him."
"Oh, the end result?"
"Yes, it's useless to win in the future."
The car slowly got onto the road.
"Fang Wu, I was really surprised to see you at the luncheon, I used to think that you were just a heartless child, it's really eye-catching!" This is where the motivation comes in.
With a sigh, he said to the butler: "Mr. Puffre, you know, with the care of my grandfather, from the beginning of my childhood to the present, the only thing I can remember is to play without heart and lungs, and I have never done anything else!" How nice it is to be able to play without a heart! I received a telegram a few days ago that my father had an accident, and I didn't feel anything at the time. You know my father, I've never seen him in my life, and I didn't think it would affect me, after all, I was brought up by my grandfather. It's just that I don't know why, all of a sudden, I feel like I've changed a lot, as if for a moment, I want to find the energy to play without heart and lungs, but I can't find it anymore! ”
"Mr. Schmidt is right, you've grown up!"
"How can you not want to play, the other day my butler told me that the worker earns 200 marks a month, I was surprised, maybe the butler said before that I didn't care. After doing the math, it is estimated that spending grandpa's money is enough for the family to live for a lifetime. Although Grandpa is not old now, what about the future? I don't have any strength, and I can't play if I want to!
There is a Chinese proverb that killing one's father and the enemy are not the same as the sky, although the father has no feelings, for the son of man, he must avenge his father, right? I don't have any strength, let alone revenge, I'm afraid self-preservation is a problem. People, I feel that my shoulders have sunk a lot. My father's revenge can only be avenged by myself, and I can't rely on others. ”
"You can do it."
"Thank you, Mr. Puffre, for your encouragement!"
"Fred, this child, I grew up watching, and I will never allow others to hurt him!" Here comes the warning, listen!
"Fang Wu, you're Fred's best friend, I don't care how much money you make! Don't betray your friends, Fred is not mature enough for you, and the hurt in your heart is the hardest to heal. ”
"Mr. Puffre, I understand how much you care for Fred. I still really thought about it, Germany and China cannot become hostile countries, and there will be no national enmity between the two of us; There is a big difference between the aesthetic concepts of the West and the East, and I may not necessarily like the woman he likes, and we basically will not have a love and hatred; As for commercial interests, Fred and I may have flawed perceptions of money, and neither has a strong desire for money; My grandfather often told me that the biggest secret of doing business is the word "sincerity", and everything else is a small skill. If you want to make your business bigger, what you are most afraid of is not that others will deceive you, but that you will deceive others. Small wealth depends on wisdom, and big wealth depends on virtue! There is basically no enmity between the two of us, so I think I can guarantee my husband's request.
As for whether you believe it or not, it's a matter for the gentleman. I say this, Mr. Puffer won't be angry! ”
