Chapter 447 Abbreviation of a struggling small Chinese family in the Pan family in Bangkok
But thinking about it is true that Southeast Asians don’t look like they are small and dark, but if you want to fool them into line up to repair cars, maybe the locals really dare to dismantle the car sales office, and the local government will not care about it.
Lin Johnson lamented that perhaps the only country in the world is the best to fool.
At this time, Kalmacho had already confirmed the factory address. After Lin Johnson nodded, he immediately contacted a small and medium-sized construction company to cover all the projects.
The new factory is located in an industrial park located on the south side of the Chao Phraya River. There are also many emerging factories here. They are foreign manufacturers attracted by Thailand's further opening in the past two years. Toyota also has factories in this industrial park. I heard that many people were fired last year, and the Japanese transported many automatic machinery and equipment from the local area to replace a large amount of labor.
The construction company that Kalmacho found was established by Chinese people, and there were many Chinese people in its construction team. It is said that more than half of the population of Bangkok has Chinese ancestry, even the King of Thailand. Moreover, there are many Chinese politicians in the political class in Thailand. No wonder Chinese people can do so well in Thailand.
Three days later, Lin Johnson arrived at the command center of the construction site, where two rows of simple houses were built with colored steel tiles. He had also promoted this kind of building materials in China, but the domestic construction industry has not yet developed, and because domestic steel products are expensive, the production cost of colored steel tiles is also very high.
In the command center, Lin Johnson found Carl. At this time, he was discussing things with an engineer with a Chinese face. A large piece of architectural drawings were spread on the table.
"Karl, Gu Ming, you are all here." Lin Johnson greeted the two of them. Gu Ming kept standing by silently, and it was obvious that he was working very hard.
"Hi. Lin, what are you holding?" Karmacho asked in surprise when he saw Johnson Lin holding a large roll of drawings. He thought Johnson Lin had some new ideas about the new factory.
Since the construction began, Lin Johnson has come up with many ideas, which has caused great trouble for the progress of the project. Many original designs have to be modified, and Lin Johnson has no idea why he is so urgently demanding that the factory must start construction in mid-April. This is simply too difficult for him.
Lin Johnson opened the drawing on the table and said, "Carl, this is the car trademark and some corporate image design I drew, find an advertising company to make it."
He pointed to a sign with a base on the picture and said, "Did you see the signpost on the blue background of this white base? The bullhead sign should be large, and it should be made of chrome-plated edges and brightly."
Kalmacho saw some corporate image designs and some logo vi pictures drawn on the drawings of Johnson Lin. To be honest, Lin Johnson Lin made these designs very cool with his future perspective.
They are mostly white blue and light blue, giving people a visual experience of the future of technology, especially the car trademark he drew, what he called the bullhead logo. The size, color and shadow part are very good, which makes people look at this icon and have a sense of vividness on paper, with a strong three-dimensional feeling.
Carmacho looked at the vi renderings drawn by Lin Johnson and praised him very much. He said happily: "It's very beautiful, especially this big car trademark has a strong sense of prominence, which gives people a very intuitive and strong impact. It's really your loss if you don't design it, and of course your business is also doing well."
He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll find someone to do it right away. Who told you to be the boss?"
Lin Johnson laughed and said, "Okay. Take the time to make this street sign. The white base can be made of bluestone, which makes it look solid and calm, and it must be painted very white. The large chrome-plated logo on the blue background wall must be very beautiful when embedded on it."
"Okay, I'll find someone to contact you right away." After Kalmajo said that, he was about to go out and call someone.
The Chinese engineer next to him kept looking at Lin Johnson. Before that, he had had several contacts with this investor who was said to be from mainland China, but he only had a simple chat with him based on some new ideas proposed by this person when he wanted to change the drawings. Most of the time was the Italian in front of him.
This is the Chinese engineer who suddenly said, "Mr. Carl, please wait a moment."
He called Carmacho, then turned to Johnson Lin and said, "Mr. Lin, I can contact you the advertising maker you are looking for. Our family has an advertising company, you can let us try it."
Lin Qiangsheng listened to his half-baked Mandarin and said with some uncertainty: "Actually, I want to find a large company that can make a complete set of CI for the factory. Can your advertising company do it?"
The Chinese engineer said excitedly: "Mr. Lin. Our family has operated the construction industry and advertising industry for 20 years. Although the corporate CI image design has not been done, we are willing to try it. Please give us a chance to show it."
Seeing that the engineer was very positive, Lin Qiangsheng smiled and said, "Okay, you can make a trademark first and let me see it, and I will pay the material fee."
The Chinese engineer smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take your drawings to the advertising company now. Do you want to go with me to see?"
Lin Johnson nodded and had nothing to do anyway. Besides, he was thinking of getting in touch with local Chinese, so he went to their family's advertising company with this Chinese engineer named Pan Weilin.
The Pan family's construction company has been established for nearly 20 years. According to Pan Weilin, who is in his thirties, their family came from Hong Kong to Thailand in the late 1950s.
His father first contracted some small projects, built a house and a yard for others, and gradually saved some money and then opened an advertising agency to start a construction company. He has been maintaining this as a middle-class level. In the past few years, Vietnam withdrew troops from the Thai border, and Thailand's political situation gradually stabilized, and the economy gradually improved. The Pan family's construction company also gradually took over some small and medium-sized projects.
Lin Johnson's factory cannot be said to be big or small. The factory in the tropical area does not require much thicker brick walls. The entire factory uses sandwich panels for frame structure walls, and colored steel tiles can be used directly on the roof. This greatly improves the construction speed. The entire construction period will be completed in about three months. The factory construction will be completed in as soon as one and a half months, and then the equipment will be installed and debugged. At the same time, the factory recruits workers for training, and the ground in the factory has also been completed. Now Karmacho's working team is communicating with the government, and it is estimated that three-way and one-level work can be completed in three months.
The automobile factory here will use a large number of automated robots for production, and the production line adopts flexible design, which can formulate production tasks for different batches of vehicles as needed. The design produces 100,000 cars per year, requiring less than 1,000 workers.
After talking to Lin Johnson, Pan Weilin became very curious about this person. He knew that Lin Johnson was the chairman of Dongxing Company. He also paid special attention to the newspaper reports that Dongxing Company has invested heavily in Thailand. He also knew that Kalmacho was discussing preferential policies for foreign trade import and export and factory construction and production with the Thai government.
Thailand is now very welcome to invest from foreign manufacturers, so Dongxing Company is not worried about the government's difficulties. In fact, the Thai government welcomes auto manufacturers to settle down. For a long time, Thailand has been the world of Japanese car series. Now another car series has entered Thailand. Thai media and people think this is a good thing. New car dealers can compete with strong Japanese car companies, and at least let the high car prices be reduced.
To be honest, Pan Weilin was very strange to Lin Johnson. This person is obviously a real mainlander, but why does he have such a huge company? If this person is an agent launched by the Chinese government, he is somewhat different from his age and qualifications. If he had to contact him, Pan Weilin guessed that Lin Johnson must be some red descendants of China.
Lin Johnson is sitting in a sedan, driving the car by Pan Weilin. This is a Toyota Corolla. Although the current Corolla is still square in design, its unique appearance can make people see the Japanese style at a glance. It is easy to copy the product, but it is difficult to imitate other people's style.
When he arrived at the door of the advertising company, Lin Johnson looked at the large black copper gilded plaque, "Pan Ji Advertising Store", which is a row of two-story wooden lofts facing the street, located on the street in the prosperous area of Linjin. Bangkok in this era was much behind in the past life. Basically, there were bungalows on the streets, only the central business district could see some buildings.
The two got out of the car and walked into the advertising store. At this time, a white car following behind him also stopped at the door. Three veterans got out of the car and followed in.
In fact, it is not easy for Lin Johnson to hire a veteran, especially those who have been on the battlefield. In this era, veterans all arranged jobs for the countryside, unless they had no choice but to return to their hometowns to farm in the countryside. The veterans who followed Lin Johnson this time were not very good because their family composition was not very good, either they were not assigned to work or they were not good or they were not happy.
"Second brother, why are you here?" A young man in his twenties was reading a book. Lin Qiangsheng's eyes were so good that he could see the novels of either Jin Yong or Gu Long. When he saw several people coming in, the young man put down the book and walked out of the counter and asked with a smile.
Pan Weilin introduced to Lin Johnson: "This is my third brother Pan Weimin. He studied at the Chinese University of Hong Kong."
He smiled at Pan Weimin again and said, "Third brother, this is Mr. Lin, who is here to run the manufacturing industry in Bangkok, and his automobile manufacturing plant is being built."
Lin Johnson smiled and nodded, shook hands with the young man and said, "Hello, are you studying Chinese majoring?"
Pan Weimin was wearing a sweatshirt. He scratched his head and nodded embarrassedly and said, "Yes, Mr. Lin, are you in the car business?"
Pan Weilin patted his younger brother's head and said, "Mr. Lin is a car manufacturer. If you want to sell cars in Thailand in the future, you can change your clothes. What does it look like when wearing a sweatshirt?"
Hearing that Lin Johnson was the one who made a car, Pan Weimin opened his mouth wide, he said oh and hurried into the counter, took off his sweatshirt and put it on.
Pan Weimin was quite free and easy. Lin Johnson smiled and turned to look at the decorations in the store. Some of the engravings in conspicuous places must be Pan Weimin's craftsmanship. Judging from the regular workmanship and the handwriting is clear and powerful, it is not bad, and the antique is very Chinese.
However, the configuration of this advertising store disappointed Lin Johnson a little, which is too primitive.
