In fact, it was not that Mr. Huang praised Sun Dahai, Grandpa Ma, and Grandma Qi all day long for attending gatherings of comrades. In their mouths, Sun Dahai's performance was exaggerated several times.
I'm afraid that even Sun Dahai wouldn't know that the person they were talking about turned out to be Sun Dahai himself.
Because of this, after Director Zhou came to Xiangjiang, he put the priority on seeking Sun Dahai's help. Now he was sitting in the car and began to think about where he should start to impress Sun Dahai.
…
Just when Director Zhou was thinking about how to open an opening from Sun Dahai so that he could complete the work as soon as possible, Sun Dahai had already contacted Mr. Huang.
He already knew Director Zhou's whereabouts, and Mr. Huang even asked someone to find out their purpose of coming to Xiangjiang.
Even though Mr. Huang has completely retired for several years, it is still easy for him to inquire about such things.
Mr. Huang's advice to Sun Dahai is to help him if it's convenient. They also work for the country and have comrade-in-arms relationships in private, so if you can help them, it's better to help them.
Sun Dahai didn't have any big objections to Director Zhou and the others. He just felt that they were hiding things and didn't explain their origins and intentions clearly. He just wanted to cooperate with them as if he owed them. These were all bad habits developed in China.
Problem.
Now that Mr. Huang said this, Sun Dahai knew what he was doing. Mr. Huang still supported the country's work in his heart. He was just afraid that Sun Dahai would be in trouble. Sun Dahai had already made a plan in his heart. He would help them this time. If they don't know what to do, he would help them.
, just don’t pay attention to them anymore.
Sun Dahai told Gao Yi and Hu Cheng about the situation, and Gao Yi took the initiative to take over the matter. She said she would contact Peng Xinyan tonight and ask her to come to observe the work arrangements of the trading team tomorrow afternoon.
Gao Yi also understood that if he wanted to buy the market at the bottom, next week would be the best time. Since Sun Dahai wanted to sell favors, he would tell Director Zhou and others about the situation at the latest tomorrow.
Of course, it is up to Director Zhou and the others to decide how to do it specifically. But Sun Dahai cannot delay the opportunity to enter. Since it is a favor, it must be done in a down-to-earth manner.
Since Sun Dahai has postponed the preliminaries of karaoke to tonight, Sun Dahai is not going to go to the trading team in the afternoon. He plans to go home for a walk and come back in the evening.
Just when Sun Dahai and the others were about to leave, Gao Yi's big brother rang again.
This number has now become Sun Dahai's fixed contact number in Xiangjiang. No matter whether Sun Dahai is in Xiangjiang or not, others can contact him through this number.
This number is not open to the public. People who know this number are Sun Dahai’s relatives and friends, company executives, and important partners. Since these people are located all over the world and are in different time zones, it is normal to have a call anytime.
.
Gao Yi usually does not take her cell phone to school. Instead, she leaves the phone in the office and her secretary is responsible for answering it. Only after she returns to the company after class, the phone is handed over to her. This ensures that there are no phone calls every day.
Less than 16 hours online.
It turned out that the phone was online 24 hours a day. Later, Sun Dahai heard that Gao Yi had to set the alarm clock every night and got up twice at night to change the battery of the mobile phone. Sun Dahai felt a little distressed.
So he asked Gao Yi to turn off his phone every night, and also informed those who knew the number that if something happened at night during Xiangjiang time, they could call the company duty room in the Future Building. There would be someone on duty there at any time, so things would not be delayed.
…
Liu Yang, who called, is the grandson of Mr. Liu from Wanwan. Although he and Sun Dahai only met once in 1982, the contact between the two is actually very frequent.
However, when Sun Dahai came to Xiangjiang several times later, Liu Yang had something to do, so the two of them have not seen each other again in the past few years.
Liu Yang has been to Xiangjiang several times every year in the past few years. His Xinyuan Electronic Equipment Company was registered in Xiangjiang. However, his factory is in Wanwan, so he stays in Wanwan most of the time.
Liu Yang followed Sun Dahai's suggestion and not only produced and sold karaoke video recorders, but also licensed relevant patents to many manufacturers at low prices.
World-class brands Panasonic and Philips are his clients. Although he doesn't earn much from licensing fees, Liu Yang's connections in the industry are well developed.
Last year, Sun Dahai suddenly remembered a gadget - a rewinder, which was the best accessory product in the era of video recorders. What this gadget sells is just an idea. At most, the casing can be designed to be more beautiful, and its technical content is infinitely close to
zero.
Sun Dahai told Liu Yang about this idea, and Liu Yang quickly came up with several samples of different shapes and applied for relevant patents.
Liu Yang has mainly been selling rewinders this year. Big manufacturers like Panasonic have no regard for such gadgets with no technical content.
The rewind machine is very practical and can extend the service life of the video recorder, so major brands basically order the rewind machine from Liu Yang and then give it to consumers who buy the video recorder for free as a promotion.
Only then did Liu Yang discover that the profit from the emotional production of this rewind machine was much higher than that from his own production of video recorders, and he did not need to do marketing.
It's just that his factory is currently overwhelmed by the orders placed by only a few big customers, and he can basically sell as much as he produces.
Now, Liu Yang's original factory is still producing video recorders. He has acquired an assembly factory that specializes in assembling rewind machines. There are seventeen or eight lower-level factories around him that are supporting him, forming a partial industrial chain.
The business of this rewind machine is really good, and it is much better than its main business. The wholesale price of a rewind machine is US$49, and the total cost is less than US$20. The profit of this supporting product can actually be
Doubling the number is really rare.
In this year alone, the rewind machine brought him nearly 10 million US dollars in profits, while the profit of his own video recorder was not even one-tenth of that of the rewind machine.
Liu Yang's Xinyuan Electronic Equipment Company currently has three main businesses. The main business is self-produced and sold karaoke video recorders. The annual output and sales volume are basically the same, about 100,000 units, and the net profit is around one million US dollars.
The second piece is the rewind machine. Liu Yang holds the patent, but there is no need for him to do marketing. Now even the big manufacturers are busy with orders, so how can he bother to develop new markets.
This is mainly because he has licensed the patent of karaoke video recorders to many big brands at low prices, so that people can loosen their hands and leave the humble business of rewinding machines to him.
Liu Yang did not regard this business as a long-term solution. In Sun Dahai's words, if this business can be completed steadily for a year, then Liu Yang can find a place where no one is around to have fun.
