Chapter 126 International Cooperation
In the 1990s, with a net worth of 10 million, he could already be the richest man in some cities.
Cao Chunyuan's total net worth is less than 10 million, but Cai Guangyao increased the price by 10 million just once.
But Cao Chunyuan is not satisfied with this, because there are many delicious canneries and backed by the fruit production base of Dazhangzi Township, there are endless possibilities in the future.
It's only a matter of time before the market value reaches hundreds of millions. There is no need to give up half of the shares just for a mere 20 million.
Cao Chunyuan shook her head and said very firmly: "Mr. Cai, to be honest, I only hold 30% of the shares of this cannery. The 50% you want is impossible."
"Oh~"
When Cao Chunyuan said this, Cai Guangyao calmed down. He secretly speculated that Cao Chunyuan might belong to a big family like the Cai family. The cannery was a family business, and Cao Chunyuan was only responsible for the management.
"Ms. Cao, does your cannery only produce canned fruit products?"
Cao Chunyuan shook her head and said: "The domestic market is somewhat different from that of foreign countries. The most popular domestic products are canned fruits, while the domestic sales of canned meat are very poor. This has nothing to do with the quality of the cans, it is simply the eating habits of the Chinese people.
In addition, I am also planning to open two workshops to produce some hawthorn products and some non-staple foods."
"Miss Cao, you have a very good sense. I was just about to tell you about this matter.
Our Cai family has been in the canning business since my grandfather's generation. We have long discovered that Chinese people do not like canned meat. They prefer canned fruits, especially canned peaches, canned hawthorns, and canned oranges.
Since you said you don’t have many shares, how about we change our cooperation method?”
"Oh~"
Cao Chunyuan tilted her head and looked at Cai Guangyao curiously.
"Want to hear the details~"
"Haha, in fact, in addition to the canning business, our Cai family is also involved in beverages.
In this way, the previous conditions remain unchanged. I will still provide you with the equipment of the cannery and our improved fruit canning formula. The investment is still 20 million.
You registered another cannery in the name of Funan Malaysia Company to produce canned meats and pulp drinks separately. Each of us holds half of the shares, and I will handle the sales channels. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Cao Chunyuan's eyes lit up. This cooperation is a sure profit for her. She can also get an additional 50% of the shares of the Malaysian Funan subsidiary. Why not?
She was about to agree, but Ji Huasen beat her to it.
"Xiao Cai, we very much welcome big companies like you to invest in the mainland. But you can't bully children either!
Xiao Cao, it's not easy for a girl to do business. It's too shabby for you to ask for half of her shares, isn't it?
How dare you, an international company as big as yours, compete with a little girl for shares?
You are a grown man, let someone else have a little girl, you take 30%, and then invest an additional 30 million.
I will communicate with the leaders of Qinglong City in a while and grant you more land to expand your production scale. I will also pay more attention to you in terms of policies. Wouldn't that be enough?"
Cai Guangyao looked at Ji Huasen reluctantly with a sad face.
He had already persuaded Cao Chunyuan just now, and when he saw that Cao Chunyuan was about to nod in agreement, how could he have imagined that Ji Huasen would suddenly jump out and cut him off?
Although he was a little reluctant in his heart, Ji Huasen's conditions were just at his bottom line, making it very uncomfortable for him to not be able to move up or down.
Fortunately, Cao Chunyuan has a very excellent fruit planting base, which is what Cai Guangyao values most.
As for the branch company that cooperated with Cao Chunyuan, it was just a bold attempt by Cai Guangyao. He wanted to see if he could raise the Cai family's influence in the beverage industry to a higher level by relying on high-quality fruit pulp drinks.
"Haha, Secretary Ji is right, I am too stingy.
Miss Cao, what do you think of Secretary Ji’s proposal?"
Cao Chunyuan blinked her big eyes twice and thought to herself, I made 30 million without saying a word?
This is really good news material!
What can i say?
Uncle Ji is awesome!
"Haha, of course there is no problem. I am very much looking forward to cooperating with Funan Company."
Cai Guangyao stood up and extended his right hand to Cao Chunyuan. Cao Chunyuan quickly stood up and shook hands with Cai Guangyao.
"Then let's make an appointment to discuss the detailed cooperation plan?"
"Okay, no problem."
"Okay, let's talk back then!"
After greeting Cao Chunyuan, Cai Guangyao turned around and found Ji Huasen.
"Secretary Ji, it seems that I can't invest in Yanjing this time. I plan to cooperate with Miss Cao to invest in Qinglong City. I'm really sorry."
Ji Huasen laughed and said: "It doesn't matter where you invest. This time I invested in Qinglong City, and next time I can invest in Yanjing!"
"Haha, definitely next time."
After a few more polite words, Cai Guangyao left first, leaving only Cao Chunyuan and Ji Huasen in the room.
Cao Chunyuan hurriedly thanked me: "Thank you, Uncle Ji. If it weren't for your help, I would have lost 20% of my shares this time and my investment of 30 million yuan."
Ji Huasen laughed and scolded: "You are too young. How can an old fox like Cai Guangyao give you his trump card? Believe it or not, even if I ask him to increase the investment to 100 million, he will still invest."
ah?
Did I miss half a small goal?
"Uncle Ji, are you exaggerating? Although Cai Guangyao is rich, he is not stupid! He provided the production equipment and formula, and he still needs another 100 million to account for 100% of the total.
Thirty shares.”
‘Alas’, Ji Huasen sighed and said: “Our country’s technology is still a step behind! If the country can produce advanced filling equipment, how can it be his turn to negotiate terms with you?
Your fruits are so excellent, but if you look for any top canning manufacturer, they won’t cooperate with you?
In addition to occupying a piece of equipment and channels, what else does he have? Your raw materials are the most important, otherwise, how could he contribute both money and effort? You think he is stupid!"
Uh~
For a moment, Cao Chunyuan didn't know how to answer.
All her excellent fruits came from the Phoenix Space. To her, those excellent fruits were just a matter of waving her hand and adding some spiritual spring water. She didn't take it to heart at all.
She didn't know how precious this grade of fruit was to outsiders.
"Thank you, Uncle Ji. If I hadn't met you today, I don't know if I would have been able to discuss cooperation with Mr. Cai."
"Haha, who said we two were destined to be together?
Come and sit at home when you have time, your Aunt Qiu is still thinking of making delicious food for you."
"Haha, I'll definitely do it another day!"
After sending Ji Huasen out of the hotel, Cao Chunyuan remembered that there were still two big grudges waiting for her in the "Flowers Blooming Wealth" private room. She hurriedly ran all the way back to the private room.
As soon as Cao Chunyuan entered the house, Wang Manni greeted her.
"Director Cao, where were you just now? I called you for a long time, why didn't you answer the phone?"
Cao Chunyuan grinned, revealing two neat rows of white teeth.
"Hee hee, I just met a friend who took me to see Cai Guangyao. I have finished talking to Mr. Cai and will wait until another day to officially sign the contract."
With a 'snap' sound, the cup in William's hand fell to the ground in a free fall, spilling tea all over the floor.
He just received a call from Cai Guangyao. Cai Guangyao said that he had finished talking to Cao Chunyuan and asked him about Cao Chunyuan's identity.
William thought that Cai Guangyao had recognized the wrong person. It seemed that Cai Guangyao had not recognized the wrong person. Cao Chunyuan had really met Cai Guangyao.
When did Cao Chunyuan meet people from the Yanjing officialdom?
Since Cao Chunyuan knows someone of this level, why would she ask him to help with matchmaking? Are you laughing at him?
"William, thank you. If it hadn't been for your help today, I wouldn't have been able to negotiate such a big deal with Mr. Cai."
