At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Chen was already getting ready to get off work, but he got a phone call.
"Hello?
Brilliance Electronics.”
"Boy, haven't you done anything recently?"
When Ye Chen heard Wu Li's voice, he immediately responded with a smile: "Look at what you said, I am a good person who abides by the law."
"Don't talk nonsense to me here. Let me tell you something. The province is planning to hold a business conference recently, which will bring together all the large and small enterprises from this province and even from other provinces. Everyone will sit together and drink tea.
Let’s have a meal and see if we can promote some business.”
"Business conference?
is it necessary?
Isn’t this a pure waste of government finances?”
Ye Chen was a little dissatisfied.
"Do you need to talk about the government's finances?"
Wu Li said angrily, "Besides, this matter was also proposed by me. The purpose is to allow various companies to communicate more, reduce costs, and improve strength."
When Ye Chen heard about cost reduction, he immediately became interested: "Is there a raw material supplier that will make electronic motherboards tomorrow?"
"I didn't know, but companies of all sizes have been invited, especially those from Jiangsu Province. Anyone with a bit of reputation will send someone over."
"Then the purpose of Secretary Wu calling me is..."
"I suggest you go and see if you have the opportunity to make friends with a few more raw material manufacturers and distribute your raw material orders to a few more manufacturers, so that they can make money and you won't be stuck like this time.
Dead raw materials.”
When Ye Chen heard this, he nodded. Obviously what Wu Li said made sense, and he was worthy of being a former state-owned enterprise boss.
"Then thank you, Secretary Wu. I will definitely go and treat you to dinner another day!"
"Just go, there's no need to eat. I hope you can find the manufacturer you like. The time will be nine o'clock the day after tomorrow."
Wu Li said, then hung up the phone.
He called personally, not to take care of Ye Chen, he just wanted to make the other party pay back the money quickly. The longer the loan was delayed, the more panicked he felt.
As for eating?
Impossible, he has been telling himself now, don't talk to Ye Chen if you can, and if you have to talk, try to contact him by phone.
After personally helping Ye Chen out last time, there have been rumors in the province that the two have a close relationship, and even the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection personally sent people to investigate.
Of course, nothing was found in the end.
However, if a person in a high position like him continues to have such close contact with a businessman, it will be noon, because sooner or later something will happen!
After Ye Chen hung up the phone, he called Liu Xiao directly: "Go to a business conference at nine o'clock the day after tomorrow. It is organized by the province. There may be suppliers of motherboard raw materials. We will focus on this area.
"
"OK."
Liu Xiao nodded, "If we can find a cheaper partner, then the competitiveness of our products will be raised to another level."
Ye Chen didn't say anything after hearing this, but just made silent calculations in his mind.
He wanted to find a new raw material manufacturer, not only for the price, but also to spread the risk to avoid the repeated occurrence of raw material being stuck.
But if we simply find a raw material manufacturer to cooperate with us, we are actually drinking poison to quench our thirst and cannot fundamentally solve the problem.
To completely solve the problem of stuck raw materials, we must firmly control the production of raw materials in our own hands, such as holding a controlling stake.
In the next few days, the company operated in an orderly manner. Ye Chen did not participate too much in management, but chose to stay at home.
I originally thought about relaxing and spending time with my wife and children.
What he didn't expect was that his wife and children were well with him, but he didn't relax much...
"What are you doing?"
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Chen was still lying on the bed, facing Liu Lingya's squeeze, and said in a daze.
"What for?
Get up! It’s already past four in the afternoon, why don’t you want to eat?”
Liu Lingya patted his shoulder.
"If you don't eat and don't get up, don't think that I don't know your little trick. You say you are asking me to get up to eat, but in fact you just want to eat me!"
Ye Chen muttered.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Liu Lingya's face turned red, "Am I that kind of woman?"
"You are, you are so true!"
Ye Chen stood up suddenly and said with an aggrieved look, "I was too busy to pay attention before, but now I realize that you, you, you are a juicer!"
"You..." Liu Lingya was so angry that she was speechless, "Then stop eating and get out!"
With that said, a man walked out of the room with a loud voice.
Ye Chen sighed deeply on the bed. Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance. Under the pure appearance, there is often a fiery heart hidden.
Thinking about this, Ye Chen looked at his watch and saw that the thinking conference was about to start, so he got up, washed up, put on an expensive suit and walked towards the company.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, the conference started on time.
Ye Chen took Liu Xiao to the destination by car.
Unlike previous conferences, which were all about chatting, this conference is open in the form of an exhibition.
The open space was chosen in an underground plaza, which was originally a parking lot. As a result, the traffic flow was sparse, so it was planned to be a rentable plaza.
Use it to hold events, birthday banquets, etc.
There were a lot of people at this conference, and most of the factories set up small sheds to constantly introduce their products to others.
When Ye Chen went in, he met almost no acquaintances, and his goal was very clear. He went straight to the manufacturer of motherboard raw materials.
However, there are not many manufacturers of this type. The only ones I found were a few, and they were directly persuaded to leave because Ye Chen’s quotation was too low.
"Mr. Ye, I think we should raise the price a bit. Every time you mention the price, people lose their mood to introduce the product."
Liu Xiao reluctantly persuaded.
"I'm just here to pick up bargains. Why am I here if the price is too high?
It’s a bargain. If you can find it, you’ll earn it. If you can’t find it, you won’t get it!”
Ye Chen said indifferently, he originally came here with the mentality of trying his luck.
Moreover, this square is very large and there are many vendors, but they only visited less than one-fifth of it.
"Hey, isn't that Liu Feng?"
Liu Xiao asked curiously.
"Liu Feng?"
Ye Chen was also a little surprised and looked in the direction, "This person is still in the mood to come here. You can't see Liu's products on the market now, right?"
"Yes, the cost of Liu's Technology's products is too high, and they are positioned at the high end. They can't beat us in terms of price, and they can't compare to Sony in terms of quality. I don't know who can come up with such a positioning."
Liu Xiao said with some ridicule.
"These people who have drunk foreign ink have horrifyingly high-minded vision. They want to take a high-end route as soon as they come here. They have no mass base at all."
"Yes, it's like a castle in the air."
Liu Xiao nodded in agreement.
"No."
Ye Chen smiled and said, "This is because I have a brain problem."
After saying that, both of them couldn't help laughing.
And this scene happened to be seen by Liu Feng.
"what?
What are you laughing laughing?
You still know how to laugh when death is imminent, Ye Chen, your mentality is really enviable."
Liu Feng said disdainfully while walking towards this side.
