Cao Shuxu explained to Cao Shujie: "We both just came here. The matter here was just decided a year ago and has not been implemented yet."
"After I told Lao Xu about you, the two of us discussed that after you come over, if you agree to invest, the three of us will study it together."
"If you don't invest, it's a deal between us."
"Brother Xu, Boss Xu, let's go in and take a look first."
Cao Shujie instantly understood what was going on, and entered the factory with Cao Shuxu and Xu Daihua.
There was a BMW X5 parked in the yard, and standing next to it was a middle-aged man with dark skin and a very thin body.
He bit his cigarette holder, saw them coming, smiled at the corner of his eyes, and stretched out his hand to shake hands with a few people, as if he saw that everything in front of him was under his control.
"Boss Xu, Boss Cao, how are you thinking about it? Although the rental price of my place is a little higher, it has complete water and power grids. The most important thing is that the environment in my workshop is good. I can simply clean it up and fully meet your production needs.
.”
Xu Daihua stepped forward and shook hands with the other party: "Boss Zhao, the price is indeed higher, let's make it cheaper."
"What we do is a small business, with small profits but quick turnover. 6 cents per square meter is too expensive."
Cao Shuxu also followed up and said: "Boss Zhao, it's not that we brothers are picky. We also inquired before coming here. The rent of other factories here is 40 cents per square meter. The gap is a bit big."
"Their space is not big enough. We produce a lot of data cables here, and I know a little bit about it. But if you want to invest on a larger scale, the space must be less than 1,000 square meters."
Speaking of this, the dark-skinned Zhao Huijian became more and more confident. He said: "Boss Xu, Boss Cao, not my old Zhao Chui, there is no other factory for rent in the surrounding area that is larger than mine."
Cao Shujie kept watching silently. He didn't know the specific situation here and didn't speak.
However, according to what the three people just said, Cao Shujie made a calculation in his mind silently.
Based on a 2,000-square-meter factory, one square meter costs 60 cents a day, which is more than 400,000 yuan a year. This price is really not low.
Before coming here, he also had relevant knowledge about the production of data lines. From a technical point of view, wire stripping, soldering, injection molding, packaging of finished products, and shipping.
The entire production process is not complicated.
Equipment investment is relatively much less.
While Cao Shuxu, Xu Daihua and Boss Zhao were talking, Cao Shujie was also looking at the distribution of the entire factory.
It does look a bit shabby from the gate, but the inside of the factory is okay.
The production workshop is made of colored steel plates and looks relatively clean from the outside.
Cao Shujie said to Cao Shuxu and pointed to the workshop: "You guys chat first, I'll go in and take a look."
"Okay!" Cao Shuxu responded.
Cao Shujie walked directly towards the workshop.
Zhao Huijian, a middle-aged man with dark skin, saw Cao Shujie's abnormal behavior and asked, "Who is that?"
"The partners we have found are here to take a look today," Xu Daihua said.
Zhao Huijian said nothing else and continued to talk about rent with Xu Daihua and Cao Shuxu.
…
When Cao Shulin saw Cao Shujie entering the workshop, he was afraid that Cao Shujie was a little strange, so he followed him.
It can be seen that boss Zhao outside is very attentive. The workshop has been sanitized, the floor is very clean, and epoxy resin floor paint is also used. If they produce data cables here, they can just pull the equipment and install it.
use.
Cao Shujie continued walking inside and saw a row of bungalows built against the wall in the workshop, which should be offices.
"Squeak"
There was a sound of friction on the door shaft, and Cao Shujie frowned slightly.
He looked carefully at the walls in the office and looked up at the roof. There were still spider webs in many places. Even if the floor was swept clean, judging from the details, there had been no one in this office for a long time.
"This place has never been rented out?" Cao Shujie had doubts in his mind.
To put it this way, it is a bit inconsistent with what boss Zhao said.
After walking around the entire workshop, it is estimated that the area is more than 3,000 square meters, which is enough for them to produce data lines.
When I came to the door, I saw Cao Shuxu, Xu Daihua and Boss Zhao still chatting. The three of them were arguing about the rental price.
For Cao Shuxu and Xu Daihua, according to the scale of the factory in front of them, if they can lower the rent by a dime, they can save over 100,000 yuan. This is not a small sum for any company.
.
"Boss Zhao, I think our factory hasn't been rented out for a long time, right?" Cao Shujie went over and said.
"Leaving it all the time is a waste and will increase your costs. It's better for everyone to take a step back."
Zhao Huijian, Cao Shuxu, and Xu Daihua were chatting. They never expected that Cao Shujie would say such a thing. He was caught off guard and didn't even think of how to respond.
Cao Shujie said: "Boss Zhao, this place really meets our needs, and we would also like to rent it for use. Otherwise, look at this, how about 45 cents this year? We put it into production in the first year, and we have a lot of expenses."
"
"You should save what you need to save. If it works, we will rent it. If it doesn't work, I see that there are newly built factories not far away that are recruiting investment, and there are discounts for high-tech projects..."
"50 cents per square meter, the price cannot be lower. If you agree, we will sign the contract. If you don't agree, forget it." The smile on Zhao Huijian's face disappeared.
He was wondering who this Diaomao was, and asked him to chop off a dime as soon as he asked.
But Cao Shujie was right about one thing. There is a newly built building in the industrial park for production and investment.
That is a government project.
Because it was a newly built place and it was different from an ordinary workshop, the current investment situation there was not very good, so we offered a discount for investment.
Neither Cao Shuxu nor Xu Daihua paid attention to that place. When they saw Cao Shujie talking freely, and Boss Zhao seemed to be quite taboo about that place, the two of them felt a little embarrassed because they still didn't observe carefully enough.
The rent is 5 cents per square meter per day, which is still acceptable.
But at this time, Xu Daihua was more interested in Cao Shujie.
The factory built by Zhao Hui covers a total area of 3,648 square meters. According to this rental unit price, the annual rent is 665,760 yuan, which can save more than 120,000 yuan compared with the previous price.
After signing the contract with Zhao Huijian, the rest is between Cao Shujie, Cao Shujie and Xu Daihua.
Cao Shuxu and Xu Daihua already have a mature data line production factory, but the scale is small and the shipment volume is limited. They now want to expand the production scale and increase shipment volume.
The two of them didn't have enough funds, so Cao Shuxu pulled Cao Shujie over.
At this time, Cao Shuxu and Xu Daihua also explained clearly to Cao Shujie the investment scale, production capacity, personnel positions, etc.
According to what the two of them said, the planned investment budget here is around 10 million.
This includes all costs of running the factory.
"That's what I think about it. Cao Shuxu and I have an old cooperative relationship, and you are also very close. We will not play tricks on this matter."
"I will give you 5 million, and you will divide the rest." Xu Daihua was very direct. He just said whatever he wanted. He didn't feel embarrassed at all, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all.
He started the business with Cao Shuxu, and he also knew that Cao Shuxu didn't have much money in his hands. Of the remaining 5 million, the bulk of the money came from Cao Shujie, whom Cao Shuxu had brought over.
Besides investing money, there is another problem.
Cao Shujie has no time to participate in the management here. Daily management still has to fall on Xu Daihua and Cao Shuxu, or they recruit a professional manager to manage it, but the cost will rise a lot, and the current situation does not allow it.
He also stated his intention not to participate in management.
That is to say, it is typical to only invest money and not care about production and operation.
Xu Daihua invested half of the funds, and coupled with his own participation in management, this figure is very subtle.
All three of them knew what it meant.
Cao Shuxu thought for ten minutes and said, "I can only invest 1.5 million here."
"Then I will make up the remaining 3.5 million and not participate in the management. Just give me 30% of the shares." Cao Shujie was very happy.
According to the investment ratio, he can get 35% of the shares.
But in this kind of enterprise, management also plays a large role.
Xu Daihua didn't expect that Cao Shujie would be so happy, doing things neatly and without any sloppiness.
He originally had a lot to say about the shareholding ratio, but after Cao Shujie took the initiative to say these words, Xu Daihua suddenly realized that he was fussy and seemed petty.
In the end, Xu Daihua invested 5 million yuan in capital and management, accounting for 52% of the shares.
Cao Shuxu's future focus will be on this factory in southern Henan. He invested 1.5 million yuan in capital and management to hold 18% of the shares.
Cao Shujie invested 3.5 million yuan in capital, accounting for 30% of the shares.
They have established a cooperation agreement in advance, and the funds will be formally established in the new factory, and the money will be transferred after opening a public account.
On the same day, Xu Daihua invited Cao Shujie, Cao Shuxu and the others to have dinner together to celebrate. Cao Shulin was a little confused when he listened.
Is he still thinking about deciding to invest so soon?
And the total investment is 10 million.
But Cao Shulin didn't know that in Cao Shujie's eyes, this investment was just right and in line with his expectations before coming.
According to Cao Shuxu and Xu Daihua's plan, the new factory plans to produce 20 million data cables annually, including 15 million ordinary USB data cables and 5 million other types of data cables.
It is a path of small profits but quick turnover.
For the remaining finishing work, Xu Daihua and Cao Shuxu are professionals, and it would be useless if Cao Shujie participated too much.
Later, a third-party notary will be found to notarize the joint venture shares.
Cao Shuxu is mainly responsible for the registration and daily management of the new company, including but not limited to the procurement of equipment, raw materials, personnel recruitment, company framework construction, etc.
After finishing their work, Cao Shujie, Cao Shulin and Song Baoming drove back to Qingshi Town from southern Henan.
It was not until the end of February that Cao Shuxu called. The new company had been registered and had begun purchasing equipment and recruiting employees according to each position.
Cao Shujie made another trip to southern Henan. Xu Daihua and Xu Daihua signed a formal cooperation agreement and transferred 3.5 million yuan to the new company's account.
