Chapter 844 Encounter
Zhang Jian had a good idea. According to his plan, he would first find a suitable factory to produce the samples, then adjust the samples, and finally produce the finished products before mass production.
The next step is to promote the product. Zhang Jian plans to target ordinary consumers as the promotion target . At the same time, he will visit hospitals and relevant medical departments to see if the product can be sent to hospitals for use.
In this way, Zhang Jian came to Pengcheng, because there are more small and medium-sized electronics factories in Pengcheng than in Yangcheng, and it is more suitable for producing the product that Zhang Jian needs.
Unexpectedly, after arriving in Pengcheng, Zhang Jian visited several small and medium-sized electronics factories in succession, but most of the replies he received were rejections for making samples of this product, because these factories basically had their own products, or were OEMs for some large factories, and they simply looked down on shell companies like Zhang Jian. What's more, Zhang Jian only had a preliminary design and didn't even have a sample. It would depend on their factory to make the sample first, and then constantly adjust the sample to determine the finished product, which was really too troublesome.
After much persuasion, Zhang Jian finally found a manufacturer willing to help make samples. However, the price that the other party directly proposed from mold making to sample trial production was really unacceptable to Zhang Jian. This price was too outrageous and far exceeded Zhang Jian's expectations. If he followed the other party's offer, not only would all the risks be on Zhang Jian, but he would also have to spend a lot of money.
Zhang Jian did make a lot of money from his previous photo taking and computer health testing business, but the problem was that his money was limited, and after the samples were completed, there was the subsequent finished product production and market promotion, which all required investment.
Excluding the 100,000 yuan left for his family, the rent for an apartment in Yangcheng, the company's start-up costs, office rent, employee salaries and other expenses, now, all the funds Zhang Jian can use add up to less than 300,000 yuan. If he only produces samples and does not include the follow-up work, he will have to spend tens of thousands at once. Zhang Jian feels really painful.
After much thought, Zhang Jian felt that this was too risky. He planned to travel around Pengcheng and contact several electronics factories to see if there might be more suitable manufacturers to cooperate with.
In the next few days, Zhang Jian has been looking for a suitable cooperative manufacturer, but facts tell him that this is not easy to do. After all, Zhang Jian cannot give the other party a clear order quantity for the time being, and his product only has a preliminary design, and it requires a certain amount of capital investment from the final product to the final shape. Which manufacturer is willing to take the risk to take his job?
On this day, Zhang Jian visited another electronics factory, but returned empty-handed as before. After leaving the factory, Zhang Jian sighed in his heart, and he even began to doubt whether he had made the wrong choice. Should he not have made such a decision?
After thinking about it, Zhang Jian shook his head again. He told himself that this choice would not be wrong because his experience and judgment were accurate. Although this product is currently blank, the blank also represents huge market potential. People's demand for health is much higher than before, and as time goes by, medical care and health are the first choice for most people.
It is precisely because of this that Zhang Jian resolutely invested the money he had earned before into this industry. He believed in his own vision and was sure that his judgment would not be wrong. God will give great responsibilities to those who are able to do so. What does the current difficulties matter? As long as the path forward is correct, there will be a day of success.
These electronics factories rejected themselves. This was not their failure, but they missed the best opportunity.
When his products become successful in the future, those factory owners who reject him now will definitely regret it.
Zhang Jian clenched his fists and took out a notebook from his bag. He crossed out the name of the factory . Looking at the dozen or so electronics factories he had not visited, Zhang Jian took a deep breath and walked towards the bus station not far away. The temporary failure did not knock him down. Instead, it gave Zhang Jian stronger confidence. He just didn't believe it. Are all the bosses of electronics factories in Pengcheng so short-sighted? Is there no one who has the foresight to see the future of this product?
It was approaching noon. Although it was early spring, the sun in Shenzhen was still scorching. Zhang Jian, who was wearing a gray suit, had sweat on his forehead after standing in the sun for a while. He took off his coat and held it in his hand, loosened the tie around his neck, and waited patiently for the bus to arrive.
The intervals between buses in Pengcheng are much longer than those in Guangzhou, especially for buses in the industrial park.
Zhang Jian was unlucky. When he arrived at the bus stop, a bus had just left and the next one would not arrive for half an hour. After waiting for a long time, Zhang Jian looked at the watch on his wrist and looked in the direction of the bus, wondering how long it would take for the bus to arrive.
At this time, a black Mercedes-Benz drove past the bus station. It was a rare luxury car, but Zhang Jian didn't pay attention to it. No matter how good the car was, what did it have to do with him? He was concerned about when the bus he was going to take would arrive.
After the Mercedes passed the bus stop, it suddenly slowed down and slowly stopped a hundred meters away from the bus stop. Then, the Mercedes turned around in front and drove back, turned around again after passing the bus stop, and finally stopped steadily in front of the bus stop.
"Old Zhang!" The glass window of the rear seat of the Mercedes-Benz slowly lowered, and a face that was extremely familiar to Zhang Jian poked its head out of the car.
"Old Sun?" Zhang Jian was stunned and turned around to look. When he saw clearly that the person sitting in the car was Sun Yaoliang, Zhang Jian almost felt that he was seeing things.
But soon, Sun Yaoliang pushed open the car door and walked out. Only then did Zhang Jian realize that he was not mistaken. It was really his old classmate Sun Yaoliang.
"Why are you here?" The two asked in unison when they met, and they couldn't help laughing as soon as they finished speaking.
"I came to Pengcheng to do some business, what about you?" Zhang Jian asked.
"Me too. I just arrived today. Waiting for the bus? Come on, get in my car. I'll take you to see someone." Sun Yaoliang called Zhang Jian to get in. Zhang Jian looked at the car and asked in confusion, "Is this your company's car? Old Sun, you're so awesome now that you can ride in such a nice car?"
"Haha, it's our company's car after all. Come on, stop standing here and follow me. Aren't you afraid of getting sunburned standing here in the middle of the day?" Sun Yaoliang pulled Zhang Jian's arm and got into the car. After getting in the car, Zhang Jian looked at this luxuriously decorated car, touched the leather seat under his butt, and couldn't help but praise it in his heart, saying that a good car is a good car!
Zhang Jian had been a leader of a state-owned enterprise and had ridden in nice cars, but the best car he had ever ridden was a Bluebird. But compared to Sun Yaoliang's Mercedes, the Bluebird was simply too weak. Zhang Jian had been in the south for a year and was quite knowledgeable. He knew how much a car was worth.
Sun Yaoliang said something to the driver, and the driver released the brake, stepped on the accelerator and drove forward. Sitting in the car, Sun Yaoliang asked Zhang Jian why he came to Pengcheng this time. Zhang Jian did not hide it and immediately told Sun Yaoliang that he came to his friend to find a manufacturer to cooperate with and planned to produce a product.
The two chatted and the car soon arrived at a place, which was a very quiet and beautiful residential area. When the car arrived at the gate, the uniformed security guard saw the car and raised the barrier to let it pass. They walked inside and walked along the path inside for a while, and then they stopped in front of a villa.
"Where is this?" Zhang Jian got out of the car and asked curiously while looking at the villa.
"You'll know when you go in." Sun Yaoliang said with a smile, then took Zhang Jian to the door, rang the doorbell and told who he was through the intercom. Then there was a slight sound and the door lock opened. Sun Yaoliang pushed the door open and took Zhang Jian in. After they went in, the heavy door closed automatically again.
This villa is not too big, but it is very exquisite, and the layout of the garden is very nice. Sun Yaoliang took Zhang Jian along the path through the garden and came straight to the villa, opened the door and walked in. When they got inside and walked around the entrance, Zhang Jian suddenly saw a familiar figure fiddling with tea sets on the sofa.
"Old Song?" Zhang Jian rubbed his eyes and blurted out.
"Lao Zhang? Why are you here with Yaoliang?" Song Yuanchao looked up and was surprised. He never thought that Zhang Jian would come with Sun Yaoliang. Of course he knew that Sun Yaoliang was here, because that car was sent by Song Yuanchao to pick up Sun Yaoliang at the airport, but why was Zhang Jian with him?
"Old Song, don't you think this is a coincidence?" Sun Yaoliang stepped forward cheerfully and told Song Yuanchao how he met Zhang Jian. After hearing what Sun Yaoliang said, Song Yuanchao also laughed and nodded repeatedly with a smile. This was really a coincidence. Fortunately, Sun Yaoliang had good eyesight and saw Zhang Jian on the way here, otherwise he would not have known that Zhang Jian had also come to Pengcheng.
"Old Song, where is this?" Song Yuanchao asked Zhang Jian and Sun Yaoliang to sit down. The tea had just been brewed and it was just right to drink it now. When Song Yuanchao poured tea for them, Zhang Jian looked at the villa and couldn't help asking.
"This is my home, my home in Pengcheng." Song Yuanchao replied with a smile.
"Where do you live in Pengcheng?" Zhang Jian was stunned and asked in confusion, "I remember your home is in Shanghai, right? By the way, you also have a home in Yanjing, and later you went to Nanjing to work as the chairman of Si Te. How come you also have a residence here?"
"Hahaha..." Song Yuanchao and Sun Yaoliang laughed. Sun Yaoliang, who was sitting next to Zhang Jian, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Old Zhang, what you said is all old news. Old Song is no longer in Si Te. He is now the chairman of Xiangjiang Shenghua, the big boss of Xiangjiang. See? This community belongs to Shenghua Group, so of course this is his home."
"What? You...you resigned from Si Te?" Zhang Jian was stunned, with an incredible expression. When he started his career last year, Song Yuanchao was still in Si Te. Later, he went to Guangzhou and Qiongdao. He has been busy with his career for more than half a year. He returned to his hometown during the Spring Festival. After returning to Guangzhou from his hometown, he rented a house, set up an office, and hired someone to do design. During this period, he did not contact Song Yuanchao. Who would have thought that in just one year, Song Yuanchao actually resigned from Si Te? Now he has become the chairman of Xiangjiang Shenghua?
