Chapter 377: Understanding the Market

After discussion, the vast majority of the members of the board of directors believe that Changda Group should concentrate on the real economy at this stage, and for e-commerce, if there is an opportunity, you can invest, but at least it is not appropriate to participate in person at the moment.

The final consensus formed by the board of directors this time is to actively expand the business space of the new manufacturing industry on the premise of insisting on making the existing industry bigger and stronger.

According to Guan Yuntian's plan, the first step for Changda Real Estate Company to go out, he wants to extend his tentacles to the real estate market in the provincial capital. If you want to do business in the provincial capital, you must first find a place to stay, otherwise, you can't even find the southeast and northwest of the provincial capital, and you will encounter many difficulties if you want to develop the real estate market there.

Before entering the real estate market in the provincial capital, Guan Yuntian has to have an in-depth understanding of the supply of commercial land in the provincial capital, the potential of the real estate market and the competition between developers.

For this reason, Guan Yuntian decided to make a special trip to the provincial capital to visit his only friend, Director Wei of the General Office of the Development and Reform Department.

The leaders often travel on business, and before leaving for the provincial capital, Guan Yuntian had to call Director Wei to confirm whether she was at home, so as not to run in vain. After the phone was connected, Guan Yuntian said: "Director Wei, I am Guan Yuntian of Changda Group. ”

"Oh, Mr. Guan, I haven't talked on the phone for a long time, how are you doing? How is the business running now?" is worthy of being the leader of the development and reform department, and the first thing he cares about when he meets or calls is the business situation of the enterprise.

"I'm doing well and the business is doing well. Director Wei, I would like to inquire, have you been on a business trip in the past few days?"

"----, haven't been on a business trip for the past few days, what's the matter, do you have something?"

"Oh, I haven't seen you in more than half a year, and I want to visit you these two days. ”

"What's the matter?

"I haven't seen each other for a long time, and there are still some things, and a few words can't be said clearly on the phone, if you don't go on a business trip, I'll visit you in person." ”

"Okay, I'm not on a business trip, you can come. ”

Early the next morning, the driver drove the Audi A8, pulled Guan Yuntian to the provincial capital, the highway had a smooth journey, two hours of driving, into the compound of the Provincial Development and Reform Department, less than ten o'clock.

Guan Yuntian had long been familiar with Director Wei's office location, and when he arrived at the door of the office, he raised his hand and knocked on the door a few times, and there was a response of "please come in" from the room.

Pushing the door into the house, Guan Yuntian greeted first, "Director Wei, hello!" Then, put a box of wild ginseng and two catties of the best "Biluochun" in the corner of the wall.

"Arrived so early, it seems that the journey is smooth, there is no traffic jam?" Lao Wei got up to greet him, beckoned Guan Yuntian to sit down on the single sofa next to the coffee table, made him another cup of tea, and then returned to his chair.

"Walked early, the road was smooth, two hours away. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Now that your captive power plant is closed, you don't ask for any government subsidies, I told you last time, you gave up the subsidies yourself, right?"

It seems that Director Wei is not very clear about the business status of Changda Group, and it is no wonder that since he went to Changda Group many years ago, five or six years, Lao Wei is basically unaware of a series of measures such as Changda Group's backdoor listing, breaking away from traditional manufacturing, and getting involved in real estate development and new manufacturing fields

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Occasionally mentioned, Lao Wei can't make any impression, so she still thinks that the self-supplied power plant is an enterprise of Changda Group.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Guan Yuntian wanted to explain the business changes of Changda Group to Lao Wei first, and then talk about business.

"Director Wei, it was not our decision to give up government subsidies for self-supplied power plants, and Changda Group had already transferred that business to others. ”

"Well, I remember that more than half a year ago, you asked me about the shutdown of the self-supplied power plant, when did you transfer it?"

"Blame me for not telling you clearly, you know the original business sectors of Changda Group, cord fabrics, car tires, Oil refining and petrochemical and self-provided power generation, those are traditional industries, cord cloth transferred to a private enterprise, and later through the backdoor listing, and other business sectors packaged to the capital market, after the original shares were lifted, through the secondary market to introduce other investors, we withdrew from the traditional manufacturing field, and now the major shareholder of the listed company Changda Holdings has another person, and we have less than 10% of the shares left there. Guan Yuntian explained.

"For the sake of your own power plant, I think you are still working hard. ”

"At that time, even if they helped their friends, after knowing the policy, they would rather extend the shutdown time of their captive power plants than government subsidies, and that was their business. ”

Lao Wei didn't understand Changda Group's withdrawal from traditional industries, "As far as I know, your businesses are doing very well, why do you suddenly think of quitting?"

"Director Wei, you are right, those businesses Changda Group is doing well, but you don't know, the traditional manufacturing industry is too affected by the policy, just say that the self-provided power plant, because of environmental protection reasons, a policy appeared, and it was shut down at a click, speaking of which, the government also gave some subsidies, but the subsidy of the two money, compared to the loss caused to the enterprise, can be said to be not worth mentioning, therefore, the management of Changda Holdings would rather not subsidize, but also to postpone the shutdown, their self-help measures are effective, the loss of the power plant shutdown is minimized。 "Guan Yuntian said.

"It turns out that it is wise to give up government subsidies in order to postpone the shutdown and buy more time for enterprises to save themselves. However, the small coal-fired power plants have implemented a unified national shutdown policy, and how can you also transfer out the car tires and oil refining and petrochemical products that you have done well?"

In fact, in the process of management and operation, we have long experienced policy risks, and there are environmental or safety accidents in any part of the country, and local functional departments must give enterprises rectification tasks. We expect that in the traditional manufacturing industry, with the implementation of the "de-capacity" policy, various measures will become stricter, and policy risks will become more and more large. "Guan Yuntian said.

"So, you chose to flee?"

"It doesn't sound that elegant, but that's exactly what we did. As business operators, we have the responsibility to avoid risks for our businesses. Guan Yuntian said frankly.

Lao Wei nodded, "The approach is understandable, after all, a policy like shutting down small coal-fired power plants is an earthquake for enterprises, and it is simply irresistible." After exiting the traditional manufacturing industry, you entered the real estate industry, how is the situation now?"

"Withdrawing from the traditional industry, we not only entered the real estate industry, but also involved in the new manufacturing industry, in just a few years, we have achieved the scale of the auto parts project to the top three in the country, and has become the core cooperation unit of two famous automobile manufacturers. Now Changda Group, with new manufacturing and real estate development

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

It is dominated by large segments, and also has small business segments such as high-grade edible oil, Chinese herbal medicine planting and leisure and recreation. ”

"Then you should be a group company worthy of the name. I agree with your development ideas, although the real estate industry is good at this stage, but your Changda Group started with the manufacturing industry, don't lose the fundamentals, as long as the industry is upgraded in a timely manner, the manufacturing industry will always be full of vitality. "Lao Wei has been in charge of the industrial economy for a long time, and she has a soft spot for manufacturing.

"Thank you Director Wei for your affirmation, we will have a deep affection for the new manufacturing industry, but today I came to visit, in addition to reporting to you, there is also one thing to ask for. Guan Yuntian got down to business.

"I'll just say, it's okay, you won't come to me. Say, what's the matter?" because they have been old friends for many years, Lao Wei has long been accustomed to this.

"You know we got involved in the real estate market four or five years ago, and I remember asking you to help us find a real estate company to do sales observation. ”

"Remember, you went to my friend's company with that beautiful sales director to observe, and the real estate sector is doing well now, right?" said Director Wei.

"We started from the county seat, and then came to the city to develop, and in general, the real estate sector is doing well. However, now that we have encountered a bottleneck in development, we want to jump out of that scope and develop in provincial capitals. ”

"Tell me about the bottleneck first?"

"Needless to say, the real estate market has long reached saturation, even in Huayuan City, there is now a significant reduction in the supply of commercial land, and the price increase is not as good as before, Changda Real Estate Company in addition to the four land under development, there is no land resource reserve. ”

"Well, after all, the provincial capital has a population of seven or eight million, and the real estate market is relatively large, so it is a positive business strategy for your company to develop in the provincial capital. Director Wei said.

"But Director Wei, we don't know anything about the supply of commercial land, land bidding plans, real estate market capacity, and competition among developers!" Guan Yuntian said helplessly.

"Ouch, I don't know about these situations either, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you. ”

"You are in charge of industrial economics, I know that you are not familiar with the real estate industry, and the purpose of looking for you today is to ask you to help us find a few consultants who are more familiar with this aspect. ”

"This ----," Lao Wei thought for a long time, searching for all her friends and relatives in his head, "this kind of person must also be retired at home, otherwise he will not be able to work for you." ”

"Not necessarily, Director Wei, our consultants don't have to come to work in the company to provide us with relevant information, which is also called consultants, and we will pay according to different circumstances. ”

With this premise, Director Wei has a lot of options, "Let me think about it, according to the range of information you want to know, I'm afraid one or two people can't be fully competent!"

"There should be candidates from all sides, because those who understand the information of land resources do not necessarily understand the market conditions, and all aspects are looking for one. "Guan Yuntian said.

"If there are more consultants, won't you pay more? ”

"Hey, since we want to come to the provincial capital to do business, of course, we have to save on the big aspects, but the salary of a few consultants, that is the money that must be spent, and we don't need to think about saving or not. ”

"Okay, I'll be able to put forward a candidate right away, but I'm going to talk to them first to see if they're willing, and if they don't want to be a consultant, I'll consider another candidate. ”

Director Wei, although you are not familiar with the real estate business, you are our human resources consultant. ”
