Chapter 460 Ambition
Office of the Director of Quanlin Food Factory.
Zheng Guoyuan, Zhao De and Xiao Qiang were in a good mood. With the opening of the market situation, Quanlin Factory completely solved the problem of product unsalable sales in just half a month, and also gained a firm foothold in suburban counties and surrounding areas.
At present, sales in Macheng and Jingkou are rising steadily, and the sales in suburbs are getting better. The three leaders of Quanlin Factory are happy and in pain.
What is happy is that as sales improve, the previously unsold products are no longer a problem that bothers them. Cars of products are transported out of the warehouse, and as channels enter various sales terminals, they are then transferred from the sales terminal to the customers, thus turning into real profits and returning to the factory.
As for the pain, for the same reason, Quanlin Factory is not a big factory. In terms of production scale in various beverage factories in Jinling, the output is only ordinary. Even if you work overtime every day, the output is limited. Seeing that the huge market is placed there, it cannot obtain more benefits due to insufficient production. How can this not be painful?
"Old Zheng, I have calculated that our inventory will not keep up with the sales in one week at most. You see...."
Zheng Guoyuan sighed and shook his head and said, "If you can't keep up, you can't keep up. No matter how big the appetite you have, you can eat as big as the meal you have, there is nothing you can do about it."
"I'm now experiencing the entanglement of the Nandu Branch. When we did this, we were worried that Nandu had ideas and even had tit-for-tat friction with us. It seems that they experienced this feeling earlier than us. It's not that they don't want to occupy these territories, but that they don't have the ability at all!"
"You are right. You mentioned this view at the beginning. It seems that the judgment was correct at that time." Xiao Qiang nodded and agreed.
"Old Xiao, the supply and marketing side cannot be relaxed yet. The territory we have built must be firmly guarded by me." Zheng Guoyuan explained to Xiao Qiang, and then said to Zhao De: "Old Zhao, how can we expand the output of our factory? I feel anxious when I see this situation."
"Haha, I'm also anxious." Zhao De smiled and said first, and then said: "I have considered the issue of output. Our equipment is limited. No matter how many people stop, they can't raise it no matter how much. Even if they can be raised, it's not much. Moreover, although the equipment does not need to eat and sleep like people, it's a big trouble if there is a problem with the long-term full load operation. So I think the only feasible way to expand production is to install a new assembly line, which is the solution to the root cause."
fantuan.
Zheng Guoyuan nodded, Zhao De's words reached his heart. Expanding output is now imperative. If Quanlin Factory loses this huge market due to production, then he is the sinner who missed the opportunity for Quanlin Factory to develop.
However, to expand production, a new assembly line must be launched, which is an unavoidable hurdle.
Quanlin Factory had good benefits before, but as an old factory that has been established for nearly 30 years, the burden on Quanlin Factory is not light.
Although Zheng Guoyuan has been working hard over the years, due to the previous planned economic reasons and the level and scale of Quanlin Factory, Quanlin Factory has never encountered any opportunities for development. Moreover, as time goes by, Quanlin Factory has to pay the profits every year, in addition to paying profits, it also has to bear the wages of all the working and retired employees of the factory, labor insurance, etc., and it is impossible to save any money.
Now with the progress of reform and opening up, the market economy has begun to replace the planned economy. Through this incident, Zheng Guoyuan suddenly discovered that the business operation was not what he had imagined. Not only should one do a good job of internal management and production, but one must also adopt multiple strategies for the market, adjust its inherent ideas, and open one's horizons to find the correct development path.
Judging from the current funds of Quanlin Factory, there is no possibility of starting Maxin's assembly line, because one assembly line costs a lot of money. Even if Quanlin Factory's current sales have improved significantly, if you want to wait until you have enough money, the daylily will be cold.
"Old Xiao, I remember you have a relative who is the director of our district credit union?" Zheng Guoyuan suddenly asked Xiao Qiang.
"My second cousin's eldest son is my cousin, why are you asking about this? Are you planning to...?"
Zheng Guoyuan nodded: "We can't do it to go to a new assembly line, we don't have the ability at all. There are only two ways. The first way is to apply to our superiors, but you also know whether the superiors will agree and how much money can be approved. No one can guarantee this. Moreover, everyone knows the efficiency of those mother-in-laws. After repeated research on one thing, this meeting will have to be held several times..."
Zheng Guoyuan's words made the two nodded repeatedly. Who doesn't know that they are all people in the system? It's true that Zheng Guoyuan said.
Zheng Guoyuan continued: "The most important thing about the upstream assembly line is the funding problem. If the funds are solved, the main problem will be solved. If we don't have this ability now, we may not be reliable at the superiors, so we have to find solutions from other aspects."
Looking at Xiao Qiang, Zheng Guoyuan said: "Old Xiao, please contact your cousin as soon as possible and ask if you can borrow money from the letter of credit. As for how much you can borrow, Lao Zhao, you and Lao Xiao calculate the cost of purchasing the assembly line in the past few days, and then see how much funds we can raise on the books. We will try to take out the plan this week and implement this matter."
Zhao De and Xiao Qiang were both excited in their expressions. Zheng Guoyuan decided to launch a new assembly line to expand production, which was the best thing for Quanlin Factory. Once the new assembly line is in place, the Quanlin Factory's production capacity can be expanded a lot, and faces a huge market in the future. At the same time, Quanlin Factory will not need to be troubled by the current insufficient production capacity.
"I will do this after Lao Xiao and I meet. But Lao Zheng, this is not a trivial matter. Are you from the superior...?"
"I will go to the report from the superior. Regardless of whether the superior supports us or whether there will be any funding, we must do our own business first. You don't have to worry about this."
"Okay! Then there's no problem." Zheng Guoyuan said this and Zhao De completely relieved.
The three of them discussed how to get a loan. After almost the same talk, Xiao Qiang suddenly remembered something and told Zheng Guoyuan that Yumin Factory had also started direct supply sales these days, and directly targeted the sales terminals in various regions of the city.
"Is this Jiang Youxing's brain problem?" Zhao De said in surprise: "Is this true or false?"
"Can this be fake? After I heard about it, I went down to touch the situation. In the past two days, the people from Youmin Factory have been out to the market. If you don't believe it, you can go and have a look." Xiao Qiang made a decisive move.
"Isn't this a mess?" Zhao De felt that Jiang Youxing's approach was a bit unreasonable. He wanted to be strong with Nandu. What's the benefit of doing this?
Even if Jiang Youxing bypassed Nandu and their Quanlin and went directly to Jiangbei to open up new markets, there would be no problem. A few people couldn't finish such a big cake, but they wanted to grab the ready-made ones from their bowls. What was Jiang Youxing's mind thinking?
When Xiao Qiang told them that not only that, in order to seize the city business, Youmin Factory directly reduced the price by 5 cents and took out the factory price to compete with Nandu, Zhao De widened his eyes and felt incredible.
Zheng Guoyuan was also surprised after hearing this and asked Xiao Qiang about the specific situation. After Xiao Qiang carefully explained what he knew, Zheng Guoyuan suddenly burst into laughter and shook his head while laughing.
"Old Zheng, why are you laughing at?" Zhao De asked strangely.
Zheng Guoyuan laughed so hard that tears came out. He raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes and shook his head, "This Jiang Youxing is really a talent. When I understood the sales methods of Nandu, I originally planned to discuss this matter with him to see if our two factories can work together to learn Nandu to adjust the sales model, but Jiang Youxing was fine. Before I could talk about this matter, this old boy hid far away like the plague god, and I didn't know what to say."
"Now this old guy understands it, but what he did is too..." Speaking of this, Zheng Guoyuan sighed in disgust, as if he felt that Jiang Youxing's thinking was different from ordinary people, and he didn't know what he would do this out of his ideas.
"What is the reaction in Nandu now?" Zheng Guoyuan asked.
Xiao Qiang said he was not clear yet, maybe it was because the time was short, Nandu had not yet reacted.
Zheng Guoyuan thought for a while and shook his head: "No, since someone in Nandu can come up with this sales model, the other party will definitely not be so slow. If I guess correctly, Nandu may have already made any moves, and we just don't know for the time being."
"This time Jiang Youxing is probably going to be a staple. Nan is so easy to mess with? And he also made a fool of himself, and he actually reduced the price by 5 cents to the current direct supply price, and sold directly at the factory price. Haha, you still remember that we talked about this issue when we decided to learn from Nandu to conduct direct supply sales. Nandu is not stupid. Why did they give in 5 cents instead of giving in directly a cent? Although the sales of these 5 cents in a month is not a decimal, the problem is that it is this amount ratio. Have you not thought about it carefully?"
Seeing that the two of them were thinking, Zheng Guoyuan was very confident and said, "Jiang Youxing was stabbing a hornet's nest. If I had no problem with my judgment, the old guy would be in trouble next time. Is the sales terminal in the city so easy to grab? He underestimated Nandu too much. By the way, if Youmin failed to make a change this time, it would be impossible to even pay the salary next month, do you think Youmin can still persist? If Youmin merged it with our factory, then the production problem will be solved directly?"
Zheng Guoyuan's words made Zhao De and Xiao Qiang's eyes lit up, yes! This is a shortcut. It is difficult to get a superior to approve the payment. If you borrow a loan, the money will eventually be paid back. But if the entire Youmin Factory is merged with Quanlin Factory, then there will be no problem. Quanlin Factory directly took over the factory equipment of Youmin Factory and included skilled industry workers.
Although the merger will also bring burdens, this burden is still worth it compared to the benefits obtained, at least in terms of output, it directly solves the most important problem at present.
