Chen Linfa picked up the contract handed over by Gao Fan, looked at it twice, and then said hello to his son Chen Xingquan.
Chen Linfa only attended literacy classes for a few days when he was young and was not very literate. He was able to read simple words. Signing a contract was not something he could joke about. He had to understand the detailed terms in it before he could make a judgment.
Seeing Chen Xingquan approaching to read the contract, Gao Fan stood up, pointed to a half-year-old child sitting nearby, and asked: "Your name is..."
"His name is Chen Xinghai, and he is the third child in my family." Chen Xingquan answered for the half-grown child.
"Oh, yes, Xinghai, where is your toilet? Please help me find a piece of paper. I have to go to the toilet." Gao Fan said.
Chen Xinghai quickly got up, went into the side room and brought two newspapers cut into half-foot squares, handed them to Gao Fan, and then led Gao Fan to the dry toilet outside. The dry toilets in rural areas are all built on
On the edge of the village, and out of the mentality of not letting the rich water go to other people's fields, every household has its own dry toilet. Without Chen Xinghai to lead the way, Gao Fan would definitely not be able to find it.
Of course Chen Linfa and Chen Xingquan knew that Gao Fan chose to go to the toilet at this time to deliberately avoid it and give them time to discuss the contract. Seeing Gao Fan leave, Chen Xingquan took the contract over and watched it with Ke Shuilong, while reading it word for word.
Say it for Chen Lin.
The contract written by Gao Fan was not complicated, with just a few clauses. It was also agreed with Chen Xingquan before, that is, the two parties would cooperate to build a factory to produce antifouling coatings. The Chen family would invest 150,000 yuan, and Gao Fan would be responsible for providing the technology, with both parties holding shares.
50%.
In addition, the contract also stipulates that the company needs to have detailed accounts, and the Chen family needs to submit the accounts to Gao Fan regularly for review. Gao Fan does not participate in the daily management of the company, but has decision-making power in corporate decision-making.
In order to avoid the investment risks of the Chen family, Gao Fan also promised in the contract that if the total profit in the first three years is less than 600,000 yuan, he can use 75,000 yuan from his dividends to compensate the Chen family, which is equivalent to
Both parties share the initial investment.
"Dad, what do you think?"
After Chen Xingquan finished reading the contents of the contract, he asked Chen Lin.
Chen Linfa pondered for a moment, and then asked Chen Xingquan: "What do you think?"
"I think it's OK." Chen Xingquan said, "This contract is similar to what Gao Fan told me in the past. I was just worried that the antifouling coating was not as good as he said and might not be able to sell. But I tried it some time ago.
Judging from the situation, this kind of paint is very popular, and this factory will definitely make a lot of money."
"This Gao Fan is a capable person." Chen Linfa nodded.
"That's just too crazy. Why did he let that acquaintance of his get involved in our screen printing business without even discussing it?" Ke Shuilong said angrily.
It was true that he admired Gao Fan's ability, but after all, some young people always felt that Gao Fan was younger than him, but he acted bossy in front of him, which made him a little unhappy, and now he was about to complain.
.
"He wants to establish his authority in front of us." Chen Linfa said, "Didn't you see, he said in the contract that he holds half of the shares, but has the final say in the factory.
"The matter of screen printing is big or small. He just wants to test our attitude."
"This guy is really amazing. He doesn't look like a 16-year-old." Chen Xingquan shook his head and sighed.
Ke Shuilong said: "Why? Each of us holds half of the shares, so they should be equal. We all discuss matters. Why should he have the final say?"
"Just because he has skills." Chen Linfa said, "Aaron, how much money did you make in a month from screen printing in the past? Xingquan brought back a formula, how much money can you make in a month now? Technology is such a thing
, it’s just a matter of a piece of paper, but this piece of paper can help you make a lot of money, don’t you agree?”
"I'm convinced... I must be convinced." Ke Shuilong lowered his head and muttered, "But to set up a factory, we also contributed money, and it was 150,000. We don't have that much money, so we have to find someone to borrow it.
.If we don’t get it right, our work over the past few years will have been in vain, and we might have to pay for the house.”
Chen Xingquan said: "It is impossible to lose money. I am basically sure of the paint market. In terms of money, I am going to ask the fishery brigades to help me. 30,000 yuan per family will be enough. When the time comes,
, I will give them a discount on the price of their paint, and they will definitely be willing.
"As for the fact that Gao Fan has the final say on factory affairs, he also wrote it in the contract that he will not interfere in the daily management. He only manages the major decisions of the factory."
"What does a major decision mean?" Chen Lin asked.
Chen Xingquan said: "Based on my understanding of Gao Fan, I think he has a big heart. He will definitely look down on this small paint factory. Didn't he just say that the paint factory just makes a quick buck?"
, when he gets rich, he will do other things.
"I'm thinking that the major decision he was talking about probably refers to the factory's investment decision."
"Promise him." Chen Linfa said firmly, "Gao Fan is not an ordinary person. His life is more valuable than ours. He may not care about our life and death, but he will care about his own future. If he is optimistic about something,
If you want to do it, you must be sure. If we follow him, he eats meat, and we drink some soup, we will be much stronger than now."
"I think so too." Chen Xingquan said, "This is the only capable person we know. If we don't catch up with him, we can only make some plastic products. We work hard and can't make much money in a year.
to 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.
"If we do the paint business well, we can make back the investment in one year and earn at least 300,000 yuan in three years, which is better than what we did in the past 10 years. Even if Gao Fan has some tricks in the future, he will take more shares in the factory.
Even if it’s a few percent, our earnings won’t be less than what we earn now.”
"Gao Fan is not that kind of person." Chen Linfa said, "I saw him just now, and I think he is a person who can be as wealthy as others. People like him must use their thoughts to make big money.
I won’t haggle over small amounts of money with people like us.”
Chen Xingquan said: "He told me yesterday that he did well in the college entrance examination this time and will definitely be able to go to Peking University. When he goes to university, he will come into contact with more people, and there will definitely be many people who want to cooperate with him.
And there will be people who are more capable than us.
