Chapter 933 Thoughts
Shen Yuanjie was not stupid and understood it as soon as he heard it.
But no matter what, Song Yuanchao brought him in this time and in less than a year, his wealth increased several times. This operation really amazed him.
But Shen Yuanjie didn't know that in addition to taking advantage of his eldest brother's division of the family property to gain benefits for himself, Song Yuanchao also did some other things that were not convenient to be disclosed. The specific circumstances were not convenient to talk about, and only a very few people knew about it, including Song Yuanchao's father-in-law Lin Daoyuan.
After this, Song Yuanchao basically stopped. Big Brother is rough but not stupid. Some things must not be done too obviously, otherwise it will backfire.
Now Song Chaoyuan and Shen Yuanjie are cooperating, with Qin Zhengguo acting as the first person to start a legitimate foreign trade business with Big Brother through the previous company. Moreover, their business has people who have made recommendations both domestically and with Big Brother, so it is much more convenient than Shen Yuanjie's original border trade.
Just like that, Shen Yuanjie has now moved his base directly to Big Brother's house, and transformed himself from an ordinary border trader into the boss of a large company on Big Brother's side.
The integration of Shenghua has not been completed yet. The food industry can only be operated after Nandu is officially listed. Real estate is the first to complete the integration. Shenghua Real Estate is currently quite famous in China, especially after the completion of Shenghua Building in Lujiazui, the Shenghua Real Estate brand has been thoroughly established in China.
As for the manufacturing industry, Song Yuanchao has been shrinking, and has gradually shifted its own production to OEM production in the past two years. However, there are different opinions within Shenghua on completely selling the current production plant. Many people think that the OEM model is desirable, but the risk of not retaining its own production is too great.
If this is done, the production of the company's products will be blocked by the OEM factory. If there is a problem at the OEM factory, it will directly affect the company's overall plan. Even if other OEM companies are sought, huge losses will occur.
Some people suggest that while doing OEM, we can continue to retain some of our own production capacity, so as to be prepared for any eventuality.
From the current perspective, this concern is not wrong. Although the domestic manufacturing industry has developed rapidly in recent years, there are not many large-scale manufacturing companies with a certain degree of productivity.
Shenghua's electronics factory in Pengcheng, including other supporting factories, can be said to be the largest and most complete. After the sale, let's not talk about whether anyone is willing to pay such a high price to buy this enterprise. Even if there is a future and it is directly handed over to the other party for OEM, isn't this just like changing the left hand to the right hand and taking off the pants to put something in? Isn't it a waste of time?
Song Chaoyuan admitted that although OEM has many advantages, the current domestic production capacity and conditions are not up to the level of 20 years later. In addition, Shenghua's products are relatively high in technology content and have very strict quality requirements. In addition, the requirements for OEM companies are not low due to patent issues.
This is why, although Shenghua currently outsources some of its products to OEMs, the overall products are still produced by Shenghua itself.
"Xiao Zhou called me yesterday." Li Daqi whispered to Song Yuanchao while lighting a cigarette.
"Xiao Zhou?"
"Fishball!"
"Oh, him! What does he want to talk to you about?" Song Chaoyuan asked as he lit a cigarette. Zhou Junhao is now the general manager of Shenghua Electronics. He can be considered an old employee of Shenghua, but compared to Zhang Jiaming who joined the company together back then, Zhou Junhao has been doing worse over the years.
When Pengcheng Shenghua was first established, Zhang Jiaming took the initiative to go to Pengcheng and later served as Li Daqi's deputy. After Li Daqi took over Shenghua Electronics and Shenghua Telecom, he was not very responsible for Shenghua Clothing. At that time, there were two candidates to replace Li Daqi, one was Zhang Jiaming and the other was Xiaoqi.
Taking into account the abilities and expertise of the two, production was ultimately handed over to Xiaoqi, while marketing and trade were handled by Zhang Jiaming.
Later, Xiao Qi became the general manager of Shenghua Clothing, and Zhang Jiaming was transferred to Pengcheng Shenghua Real Estate. After Shenghua Clothing was sold, Xiao Qi was transferred to Jinling by Song Yuanchao to be responsible for the restructuring of Nandu, and then served as the general manager of Nandu until now.
As for Zhang Jiaming, when Shenghua Real Estate was established, Song Chaoyuan gave the position of general manager to Zhang Jiaming because of his outstanding work ability in Pengcheng. In the past two years, Zhang Jiaming has been traveling between Shanghai, Pengcheng and Hong Kong, making the real estate company flourish, which can be regarded as a good experience.
As for Zhou Junhao, he did not go to Pengcheng at first, but stayed at the Xiangjiang Shenghua headquarters. Although he had a long career and good working ability, sometimes opportunities are missed. At the Xiangjiang Shenghua headquarters, Zhou Junhao did not have many opportunities to display his talents, because Shenghua's main business was in China, and the Xiangjiang Shenghua headquarters also had Xu Hui, a strong woman. Zhou Junhao's performance over could only be described as ordinary. Seeing Zhang Jiaming, who entered the company at the same time, step by step stepped up to a senior position in the company, but he was still a middle-level manager, he could not help but feel a little lost.
A few years ago, Xu Hui and Song Yuanchao said that they planned to let Zhou Junhao go to Pengcheng Shenghua to be the director of the marketing department, but Song Yuanchao did not agree to this idea in the end. Later, because of the adjustment of Pengcheng Shenghua, especially after buying the Pengcheng factory from Liu Da, Song Chaoyuan gave Zhou Junhao an opportunity to transfer him from the Hong Kong headquarters to Pengcheng to be responsible for Shenghua Electronics.
Now Zhou Junhao is the general manager of Shenghua Electronics. This step has finally caught up with the footsteps of Zhang Jiaming and others and stepped into the ranks of the company's senior executives.
"He asked me about the sale of the Pengcheng factory." Li Daqi whispered.
Song Yuanchao raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Why? Does he have his own ideas?"
Li Daqi nodded: "He plans to give it a try. You know his situation over the years. He has been holding back his anger and wants to compete with Zhang Jiaming, but there is not much point in continuing to compete now. This time the company plans to sell the factory. He wants to buy the company internally and continue to run it. In this way, he can complete the transformation from an employee to a boss."
"Haha, does he still plan to get enough orders from Shenghua after buying the factory?" Song Yuanchao asked with a smile.
"Of course it is certain. How can he start production if there are no orders?" Li Daqi also laughed after hearing this and said to Song Yuanchao, "This kid has a good idea. Shenghua will have to find OEMs in the future anyway. If he takes over the factory, he will have the basis for OEM. Moreover, with Shenghua behind him, he will have no worries about work. If he does a good job, he can make millions of dollars in revenue just from OEM in a year. If he creates his own brand and makes other products, whether it is for domestic sales or export, it will be millions of dollars in profit. This is much better than getting an annual salary in a company. The key is that he can be his own boss."
Song Yuanchao agreed . According to the current production, even if the OEM fee is very small, it is still a lot of money for the whole. In addition, Zhou Junhao has been in Shenghua for many years and has been in charge of Shenghua Electronics for a long time. He is also an insider in the field of electrical appliances and small household appliances. He also has certain sales channels and connections. It is indeed a good way to take over the factory as an OEM to stabilize the factory's survival and have a certain profit. On this basis, he can build his own brand and gradually expand it.
Besides, it's not a bad thing for Zhou Junhao to want to be his own boss. There's a saying that goes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. The ultimate goal of a wage earner is to be his own boss, not to mention that Zhou Junhao has the ability to do so, and now he has a rare opportunity in this matter.
After thinking for a while, Song Chaoyuan asked, "The Pengcheng factory is quite large. If he wants to take it over, it will cost him a lot of money. Can he afford it?"
"Of course he can't afford it." Li Daqi said, "Before Shenghua went public, Xiao Zhou made a lot of money from stocks, but at most his current assets can only be more than 10 million. However, the work in Pengcheng doesn't count the land, and the equipment and assembly lines alone cost a lot of money. How can he afford so much?"
"Then what does he think?" Song Chaoyuan asked back. Since Zhou Junhao couldn't come up with so much money, but he called Li Daqi, it meant that he must have his own ideas.
Li Daqi whispered a few words in Song Yuanchao's ear. Song Yuanchao couldn't help but shook his head and laughed after listening: "This kid is quite clever. He even told you this on purpose. Is he trying to test me through you?"
"Of course. Otherwise, why would you tell me so eagerly?" Li Daqi nodded and smiled. "But then again, Xiao Zhou is also a veteran of the company. He has made great contributions over the years. Moreover, there are many disagreements within the company regarding the sale of the factory and future OEM. I understand your thoughts, but judging from the current situation, this step is a bit too big."
"Now that Xiao Zhou has this plan, and he is one of us, it would be the best of both worlds if we let him take over the factory. At least the factory is in his hands. In the future, our Shenghua's products will be better than outsourcing to others in terms of production, quality or other aspects, right? What do you think?"
Song Chaoyuan thought about it and did not agree immediately. He said to Li Daqi: "How about this, you ask Xiao Zhou to come to Shanghai, I will talk to him in person, and then make a decision after the conversation."
"No problem, I'll call him tomorrow and ask him to come over right away." Li Daqi agreed immediately.
At this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open from the outside, and Boss Qiang, who had been busy for half a day, finally came in. As soon as he entered the door, he bowed and apologized to everyone , and also brought a bottle of good wine.
Everyone stood up to greet Boss Qiang, who opened the glass with a smile and poured wine for everyone. He drank three glasses in a row and said that everyone came today to give him face and he was really happy. Since he came late, he punished himself with three glasses of wine and hoped that everyone would not blame him or anything.
