Chapter 42 Father and Son Fight
As expected, after hearing that some Hong Kong businessmen planned to carry out single-discharge projects in China and were willing to provide a large amount of start-up funds and cooperated with incoming materials processing, the prudent and conservative attitude held by the leaders of the Plain Factory immediately changed by 180 degrees.
Factory director Wang Fuming has the most positive attitude, "This is a good thing. At present, we lack funds and advanced management methods. If we can successfully cooperate with Hong Kong businessmen, both problems can be solved. At the same time, we can borrow chickens to lay eggs, not only to obtain certain income, solve the income source of some employees, but also to obtain new technologies in practice and take a new path of innovation and development! I think this matter should be supported!"
Lin Feng, secretary of the Party Committee of the General Factory, also expressed his prudent agreement, "I think Director Wang's opinion is feasible. In this matter, your technical department should work harder to understand all aspects of this single-player machine and form productivity earlier. Since Mr. Fan mentioned this matter last time at the meeting, I went to know about it. Now the Walkman is very popular abroad. The market prospects are very good! We can seize this opportunity and sell our products abroad. This is a good thing to create foreign exchange for the country."
The former chief engineer Ma Debiao defeated Wang Dafu, the deputy director who was dealt with by Fan Wubing. He was a technical background and said, "We have also carefully looked at that thing. If there are ready-made magnetic heads and circuit boards, we can produce prototypes within one month! Even if there are no ready-made things, we need to do technical research by ourselves, and we can make them within half a year!"
When Fan Heng heard this, he immediately replied, "The specific situation needs to be discussed with the other party carefully, but the funds are obviously guaranteed. The biggest problem now is to see how you can directly get the heads and circuit boards of Sony. In this way, it will be much easier to produce the finished product."
Finally, everyone reached a consensus at the meeting. Lin Feng said to Fan Heng, "Mr. Fan, you have worked hard recently. Let go of other work first and strive to negotiate this project." Then he thought for a while and said, "For foreign investment, the country has always encouraged it to be vigorously introduced and used reasonably. If we can successfully cooperate with Hong Kong businessmen, it will be considered as responding to the country's call. However, one issue should be paid attention to when cooperating with Hong Kong capital, that is, the funds must be implemented in place, and at the same time, all the mentioned things must be mentioned in the contract, and details cannot be missed. The success or failure of many things is determined by these details, and this cannot be careless."
"I will definitely pay attention. If there are any problems, I will discuss them in time." Fan Heng nodded in agreement.
"Hehe, you know more about technology than me, I'm relieved." Lin Feng said with a smile.
In this way, the cooperation between the Plain Factory and Hong Kong capital became a negotiation between Fan Heng and Fan Wubing and his son.
The two of them hid in Fan Wubing's room and talked about business, sometimes talking and laughing and speaking warmly. When there was a conflict, they were even more nervous.
Of course, when it comes to starting a hand and foot, Fan Wubing is naturally at a disadvantage. Fan Heng can knock on his two zithers naturally, which is natural. If Fan Wubing dares to fight back, it would be a disobedience! Even if he has extraordinary skills, wealth, ability to overcome all the power of heaven and earth, and the art of turning the world, he has to shrank honestly in front of Fan Heng, and be honest in his grandson. Oh, he should be a good son.
"You disobedient boy are just not dealing with it. Are there any businessmen like you who are as unscrupulous as you in the world?" Fan Heng pointed to a restriction on the contract draft and asked angrily, "The full right to sell products in mainland China and overseas! According to you, we just work for others. We can't use the products we make ourselves, let alone sell them for us! Where can I say this in the world?"
Fan Wubing turned his eyes and said, "My father and son, settle the accounts clearly! The complete sales rights are an important basis for my investment, and this cannot be changed. Either we will break up or you will skip this and look at the terms below!"
Fan Heng frowned and looked down, then pointed to one of the questions and said, "There is also a more serious problem! Why don't you allow us to use our own manufacturer's name and trademark? Instead, you want to use the new trademark you registered? The production company must also put your name on it? What is the reason?"
"This is a commercial hype! Do you think that in the current domestic environment, is imported things easy to sell or domestic things easy to sell?" Fan Wubing replied without hesitation.
Van Heng was speechless immediately.
This is also the truth. After ten years of catastrophe in China, everything is in trouble. The market that just opened has ushered in many foreign brands with good quality and low price. Compared with some domestic products with high prices and low quality, these things can easily occupy the psychological base of the people. Some media irresponsibly promote the moon abroad to be rounder than domestic, which has also caused a very serious foreign admiration. In the early 1980s, it was the hottest period when going abroad.
The movie "The Wrangler" that Fan Wubing and Fan Heng and his son just watched is actually to promote the spirit of patriotism and implicitly mock the enthusiasm for going abroad blindly. Unfortunately, a very ironic result is that the starring actors went abroad in a short time after filming the film. This matter is really speechless.
Fan Wubing's consideration was undoubtedly taken care of this. Patriotism is needed, but it is meaningless to make a lot of money for a little fame. You should know that under the circumstances at that time, most developed countries did not have any positive publicity for mainland China, and it seemed that China was synonymous with poverty and ignorance. If you put it on the label of domestic products, even good things would be difficult to achieve satisfactory sales results abroad.
