Soon, Xu Weishan and Lei Shengli came to Chen Zhiwen's office, and after Anqi prepared tea for a few people, she sat aside and was responsible for recording.

"Lao Xu, how is Walmart's order?" Chen Zhiwen took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.

"It's very high, or Chen Sheng is very powerful, we Galaxy Trade sent dozens of people to the United States to Europe, wanting to open the market of European and American supermarkets, and the results of the past few years are not as good as the results of the chairman for more than half a month." Xu Weishan, who was in charge of Galaxy Trade, said with a smile.

"How many orders did Walmart give?" Chen Zhiwen asked with a smile, after he negotiated with Walton before, the details of the procurement were naturally negotiated by the people of Galaxy Trade to Wal-Mart headquarters and Wal-Mart procurement department, because with Walton's Chrysostom, Wal-Mart's purchasing department will naturally give sincerity, and the two sides are also negotiating in all aspects, but no matter how fast the cooperation is, it will take time, and when Chen Zhiwen dealt with the Nike matter, the two sides had not yet decided.

"Our samples have been sent to Wal-Mart's purchasing department, plus Costco's purchasing records, Wal-Mart's first order was about $300,000, involving dozens of different goods, and the first cooperation was such a large order, which is unheard of in the supermarket industry." Xu Weishan replied: "On the European Carrefour side, the first order is only 3,000 US dollars. ”

"Seize this opportunity, and Walmart will have more and more orders in the future." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said that he invested in Wal-Mart in the United States, but Hong Kong didn't know about it, and even his parents didn't know about it.

In the era when there is no Internet, it is still very difficult for Hong Kong to check a person in the United States, such as Red Bull, a common commodity, many people in Hong Kong already know that it sells well in the United States, but how good is it? What about the data? It is difficult to find, and can only be roughly inferred from Hong Kong's export data, but no one knows how much profit is.

Wal-Mart's stock is similar, its acquisition of Wal-Mart's shares, are all confidential, the United States has resources to check may not be difficult, but Hong Kong is difficult to know, even if you send someone to the United States to check, unless there is a direct access to the United States powerful people, but this relationship, basically no in Hong Kong, the current HSBC, in the eyes of Americans, is just a small local bank.

"We're already preparing the best shipments for Walmart, and there will be absolutely no problems." Xu Weishan said firmly.

"Well, I'm very optimistic about Wal-Mart's future prospects, their current turnover can reach a growth rate of 40% every year, to be able to do this speed, in addition to their high level of operation, there is also a point that their goods are of high quality and low price, the United States industrial chain is difficult to meet such needs, but we can, Hong Kong's light industry cost is very low, can fully meet Wal-Mart's needs." Chen Zhiwen continued.

Establish a good relationship with Wal-Mart, master the procurement chain and industrial chain in Hong Kong, and then move to the northern mainland for production in the future, then maybe in ten years, he will have hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in his hands every year in the hands of a large number of light industry orders, and these are the only industries that can be produced in China and are almost the only industries that can exchange foreign exchange in addition to resources.

At the same time, it can also help the domestic economy and lift many people out of extreme poverty. The effect of increasing employment and stimulating the economy may be much stronger than his direct investment, after all, how can his industry be comparable to the demand for so many daily necessities in the United States?

“40%？ So this Wal-Mart can't become another Celtic in the future? Xu Weishan said in surprise that as a supplier in the retail industry, he is familiar with supermarkets in Europe and the United States.

"Quite possibly, so hold this thigh." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said: "Moreover, not only the orders for textiles and hardware, Lao Lei, the electric fans on your side must also strive to enter the channel of Wal-Mart." ”

"Electric fan?" Lei Shengli thought for a while and said: "If we can enter Wal-Mart, then our brand will officially enter the American market." ”

"Yes, after the first batch of goods of Galaxy Trade is sold at Walmart, Lao Xu, you will discuss with the purchasing department of Walmart to see if you can introduce Midea fans into it, otherwise, it is still far from enough to just look at Costco and Fedmart." Chen Zhiwen continued.

Since his rebirth, every step of his way, every investment, has a mutual relationship, except for the acquisition in Hong Kong belongs to the investment in the real estate industry, other investments are mutually intentional, can achieve real industrial mutual assistance.

Midea's future electronics will inevitably have many types of electronic products that involve all aspects of life, and Red Bull will also jump into the field of food and other beverages after gaining a foothold in energy drinks. If Walmart can become its own stable channel, plus Costco and other retail investments in the future, it will basically be able to sit firmly in Diaoyutai.

At present, Fedmart and Costco are their own companies, Midea products can naturally go in, fans rely on cheapness, but also achieved good results, and refrigerators and air conditioners, also rely on some Hong Kong logistics personnel sent to the United States, with far better after-sales service than other brands, but also a little achievement.

"What about refrigerators and air conditioners?" Lei Shengli asked.

"You can try it, but Wal-Mart may not cooperate with us in this kind of electrical appliance, and the focus now is to take the fan route first." Chen Zhiwen said.

"It seems that we can only rely on the brand of the fan first, and then enter the field of white goods." Lei Shengli also understood what the boss meant, in the absence of strong logistics advantages, in the regional decentralized ordinary supermarket, Midea's large electrical appliances do not have any advantages, especially air conditioners, refrigerators may be a little better.

"This is not necessarily, the market feedback of the arcade machine in the United States is very good, and the profits will not be low in the future, as long as we have money, we can carry out advertising and marketing, but the premise is that we have to have excellent quality products, how is the research and development of inverter air conditioners?" Chen Zhiwen asked again.

"Mr. Wolds has optimized our chips, currently only 3 chips can be controlled, other parts are purchased from Europe or Japan, air conditioners have been assembled, and we are currently sending these air conditioners to the Middle East and Canada for testing, and there are still many problems in the feedback data, and we are also solving them one by one." Lei Shengli said.

"Okay, in the future, the United States' funding will not be a problem, and the research and development speed in this area will be faster." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

In the past, the air conditioner was similar to the one on the market, which belonged to the "semi-standard parts", so there were not many tests, but this time it was the first time that Midea developed it by itself, and it was still an inverter air conditioner that was not available on the market, so it required a lot of rigorous testing.

However, the test place is not in Hong Kong, but in the Middle East, because most of the air conditioners are used in summer, so they are specially sent to the Middle East where the temperature is high all year round and the temperature is very high, and the cost is not high.

As for the heating capacity of air conditioners, they are not needed at all in Europe and the United States, because these countries have heating in winter, and natural gas is used for heating, which is much lower in cost than air conditioners, and the efficiency is much stronger, therefore, the first generation of air conditioners developed by Midea does not have heating capacity.

In the future, when there is an opportunity to enter the mainland that needs heating air conditioners, it is enough to invest in the research and development of corresponding air conditioners, but this will be at least ten years later.
