Chapter 231 Planning
"It depends on the size of the factory and the equipment. We have to discuss it in detail to determine the details." Qin Zhengguo said this, thought for a while and said, "But I asked a factory owner jokingly before. His factory is considered pretty good in Hong Kong. The equipment in the factory is a complete set of equipment imported from Japan. Although it has been used for a few years, it has been well maintained and is about 80% new..."
Qin Zhengguo gave a brief introduction to the factory, including its workforce and production capacity, and finally gave the other party an offer.
When Qin Zhengguo mentioned the price, Li Daqi immediately became excited. He hurriedly asked about the specific equipment. Fortunately, Qin Zhengguo had asked about this before, otherwise he would not have been able to answer.
"This is a bargain!" Li Daqi exclaimed. The new factory in Shanghai cost Li Daqi more than 300,000 yuan, including the purchase of factory buildings and equipment and other miscellaneous expenses. But now Qin Zhengguo told him that the price of such a factory's equipment was only 2 million Hong Kong dollars, and Li Daqi immediately became excited .
You have to know that each equipment is different. The equipment in the Shanghai factory are all domestically produced, and the equipment in many links is not perfect, and currently they are all replaced by manual labor.
For example, there are no fabric inspection machines (to inspect fabric quality), yard machines (to inspect fabric quantity), cutting tables, electric knives, lining machines, and gantry knives. They are basically operated manually by masters or replaced by other small equipment. The interlocking edge machines, large ironing tables, and stain removers are all domestically produced primary clothing industrial equipment, which are far inferior to imported equipment in terms of efficiency.
But the factory Qin Zhengguo introduced has a complete set of equipment. You should know that these equipment are not available in the mainland, or large domestic equipment cannot be compared with imported equipment, and they are expensive.
And now, when Qin Zhengguo told him that the whole set of equipment plus sewing equipment only cost 2 million Hong Kong dollars, Li Daqi almost jumped up.
Two million Hong Kong dollars may sound like a lot, but if converted according to the official exchange rate, it would be just 400,000 RMB. Even if converted according to the black market rate, it would be just over 500,000 RMB at most.
But if this money was used in China, it would be impossible to buy these equipments. If they were imported, Li Daqi would not be able to afford it. In addition, imported equipment is more expensive. Isn’t this a bargain?
Afraid that everyone didn't understand the reason, Li Daqi explained it in detail. After listening to Li Daqi's explanation, everyone suddenly realized it.
"So, if we can directly acquire a factory in Hong Kong, we will make a lot of money just from these equipment?" Gu Jie said thoughtfully.
"This is a must, otherwise why would I have this idea?" With Li Daqi's support, Qin Zhengguo was more confident, and he asked everyone proudly whether they would do it or not. If they did, he would go back and prepare. The other party offered two million, and in Qin Zhengguo's opinion, this price was definitely negotiable. He dared not say anything else, but he would guarantee that it would be no problem to get one million, seven hundred thousand or eight hundred thousand.
Their eyes turned to Song Yuanchao. As the major shareholder of Shenghua Company, Song Yuanchao was not only the soul of these people, but also the head of the family who made the final decision.
Song Yuanchao thought for a moment and nodded slightly. Qin Zhengguo's idea was good , but it was not so easy to do it. Hong Kong and the mainland were not in the same situation as in the future. The formal trade relations between the two places had just begun, and many links needed to be opened up. Otherwise, it would be useless to buy these equipment but fail to transport them to the mainland.
However, Song Yuanchao felt that this matter still had great possibility and could be done. Song Yuanchao immediately asked Qin Zhengguo to contact the other party first after returning to find out where the other party's bottom line was. In addition, he should talk to a few more factories, be prepared to compare prices from three factories, and wait for news from his side.
The meeting started at nine in the morning and lasted until three in the afternoon. Even the lunch was brought in by the cook.
As the first shareholder meeting of Shenghua Company, this was a successful and victorious meeting. At the meeting, everyone reported on their own work and elaborated on their ideas and plans for the future, and had a friendly and intense discussion on some current problems.
At the end of the meeting, Song Yuanchao, as the major shareholder, summarized the content of the meeting. At the same time, he encouraged everyone to keep up the efforts, build on the existing foundation, and strive to make the company better and stronger.
The meeting ended successfully with warm applause. After the meeting, Lin Yan and Ying Caixia went back to the room first. Lin Yan wanted to sort out the contents of the record, and Ying Caixia assisted Lin Yan. Gu Jie went to the hotel to prepare. Everyone was going to have a good dinner tonight. The hotel was booked long ago and it was not far from them. Gu Jie went to make arrangements first.
Song Yuanchao sat in his seat and pinched his brows. It was tiring to attend the meeting for several hours, especially since Song Yuanchao, as a major shareholder, not only had to listen to each other's reports, but also had to make decisions on some issues. As a result, he was more tired than anyone else.
"Come, have a cigarette." The female comrades had all left. Qin Zhengguo, who had long been unable to hold back, threw a cigarette to Song Yuanchao. As for the heavy smoker Li Daqi, he was already sitting there puffing away.
After lighting a cigarette, Song Yuanchao took a deep puff and immediately felt much better.
"Yuan Chao, there is something I didn't tell you at the meeting just now." Qin Zhengguo said while smoking a cigarette.
Seeing Song Yuanchao looking at him, Qin Zhengguo smiled and said, "I plan to buy the office I'm renting now, what do you think?"
"Buy an office? Why did you suddenly think of this?" Song Yuanchao was slightly stunned.
"Renting is not as good as owning your own property. Besides, I have money now. The housing prices in Hong Kong are rising rapidly every day. If I just leave my money there, it will go to waste. Buying an office is also considered a real estate investment. I won't lose money. What do you think?"
Song Yuanchao thought about it and asked Qin Zhengguo how much it would cost to buy it. Qin Zhengguo gave a number and Song Yuanchao felt it was not expensive. Although the housing prices in Hong Kong have risen a lot now, it is still far from that in the future. Just as Qin Zhengguo said, this investment will definitely not be a loss.
"Okay, let's buy it in the name of the company. By the way, does Hong Kong have enough money?"
"Don't worry, there are millions in the account, and the monthly income is not small. This little money is just a drop in the bucket for the company." Qin Zhengguo said cheerfully, looking like a big boss who has no shortage of money. Li Daqi beside him chuckled.
The three of them chatted happily for a while, and when they saw that it was almost time, they stood up and left the meeting room. They went back to their respective rooms to prepare, and then called Lin Yan and Ying Caixia to go to the hotel.
After dinner, Song Yuanchao did not go with Qin Zhengguo and the others, but walked on the street with Lin Yan to digest the food and chat.
"Yuanchao, if I don't come once, are you going to keep it a secret from me?" Without any outsiders around, Lin Yan walked slowly on the street holding Song Yuanchao's arm, and suddenly looked up and asked him.
"Why do you think so?" Song Yuanchao said with a smile, "If I had this plan, I wouldn't have brought you here. You know, we decided to come to Yangcheng half a year ago. At that time, your father hadn't even said he wanted to go to Pengcheng."
"You are honest." After saying this, Lin Yan smiled and hugged Song Yuanchao tighter: "I really didn't expect your business to be so big. I always thought that Luo Yang and his supply was only from Zhengguo. Who would have thought that you, a hidden guy, were the real mastermind behind the scenes. It's really unexpected."
Song Yuanchao smiled but did not explain. After all, it was wrong of him to hide this matter from Lin Yan before, but he did that also for the sake of not making Lin Yan worry.
Everything that happened today really surprised Lin Yan. In fact, when she was in Shanghai, Lin Yan had already figured it out that Song Yuanchao must have a hand in Li Daqi's factory. But at that time, Lin Yan had not thought that Song Yuanchao had reached out not only to Shanghai, but also to Guangzhou, and even to Hong Kong.
At the meeting, everyone reported their own situations. As the recorder, Lin Yan of course wrote them all down one by one. At the same time, she was extremely shocked by the facts before her.
Judging from the current situation of Shenghua Company, it can be said that all of these people are millionaires. A few years ago, they would be considered as the "five black categories" of capitalists and would be targets for crackdowns!
But now, hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars just popped out of everyone's mouth like tens or hundreds of dollars. Song Yuanchao looked nonchalant, as if he didn't take these things seriously at all.
Lin Yan secretly estimated that Song Yuanchao's current net worth was the highest among everyone. This number surprised Lin Yan, who was mentally prepared.
Millionaires are already amazing in this era, let alone multi-millionaires? Until now, Lin Yan still couldn't believe this reality, and she couldn't help feeling a little confused at this moment.
As if he could see what Lin Yan was thinking, Song Yuanchao reached out and gently patted Lin Yan's arm, which was holding his: "What's wrong? Are you a little scared?"
"Well, a little bit. Mainly, I didn't expect it at all. I was surprised. How long has it been? You have made so much money?"
"Money? Haha..." Song Yuanchao laughed and shook his head, "Actually, money is not important to me. I don't pay attention to money because in my eyes, money is just a number..."
As soon as these words came out, Song Yuanchao himself felt a little dazed, as if he saw a skinny alien-like guy standing on the stage talking to the people below, speaking similar words to himself in a very confident manner.
Subconsciously shaking his head, Song Yuanchao laughed at himself: "Do you remember what I said when I first met your dad?"
Of course Lin Yan remembered that at that time Song Yuanchao told Lin Daoyuan that he would definitely make Lin Yan happy. In addition, Song Yuanchao also had a private chat with Lin Daoyuan. Although Lin Yan was sent out by Lin Daoyuan at that time, Lin Daoyuan still told Lin Yan some of the content of his conversation with Song Yuanchao afterwards.
At that time, Song Yuanchao frankly told Lin Daoyuan that money actually did not mean much to him. He was not very interested in money, but if he wanted money, it would not be a difficult thing for him to get it, so Lin Daoyuan did not have to worry too much about it.
Afterwards, when Lin Daoyuan and Lin Yan talked about what Song Yuanchao said, they laughed and said that Song Yuanchao was young but had a big mouth, but it was good for young people to have such confidence. Although they were somewhat disapproving of Song Yuanchao's bragging, they also admired his youthful vigor and ambition.
But Lin Yan and Lin Daoyuan did not expect that Song Yuanchao's seemingly unrealistic words were actually true. Moreover, Song Yuanchao did not seem to be as busy as those ordinary businessmen, working from dawn to dusk. It was simply incredible that he had easily acquired wealth that ordinary people could not imagine in such a short period of time.
