1980s: He was picked up and brought home as a son-in-law

Li Jiale finally understood why Zhou Feng had asked him how much profit he could make in a year. It turned out that he was waiting for him.

However, the conditions Zhou Feng offered really surprised Li Jiale. He had considered all aspects of the situation and given him a lot of autonomy. This was particularly attractive to him.

"Zhou Feng, thank you for your trust. I am indeed tempted, but I can’t make a decision right now. I need to go back and think about it. Can I give you an answer tomorrow?"

"Brother Li, this is not a trivial matter. I also hope you can be more cautious."

Zhou Feng's idea is very simple. This matter cannot be forced. He took out his greatest sincerity and let the rest take its course.

Just as he was about to say goodbye and leave, Zhou Feng suddenly remembered something.

"Brother Li, I want to ask you something. Do you know Angora rabbit fur?"

After arriving in Hong Kong, I have been busy with agency matters and have not had time to find sales channels. It just so happens that Li Jiale's business is quite diverse, so I want to see if he knows anyone in this field.

Li Jiale is still immersed in Zhou Feng's blueprint, and Zhou Feng's breakthrough question made him unable to react.

"What?"

"Angora rabbit fur."

Li Jiale was amused when he heard this:"You can't make enough money from games, so why are you planning to go into the textile industry? But you came to the wrong place in Hong Kong Island, the Shanghai market in mainland China is the largest production base for this stuff."

Zhou Feng knew that Li Jiale had misunderstood him, but he knew there was a way when he heard this, and he obviously understood this industry.

He immediately explained the current situation in Kaoshantun, mainly because he wanted to find a way to sell it in Hong Kong Island.

Li Jiale really didn't expect that Zhou Feng was actually the head of a village, and he also led the villagers to raise angora rabbits. He came to Hong Kong Island for a few days and received five million US dollars, and he still had to worry about the sales of some rabbit fur.

He could not combine the image of talking to foreign capitalists with selling rabbit fur.

But for some reason, after getting to know the other side of Zhou Feng, Li Jiale felt that this person was more real.

"I told you before that I am still doing some clothing export business. Do you know what kind of clothing I am doing?"

Seeing Zhou Feng shaking his head, Li Jiale continued,"We are making rabbit fur sweaters, mainly to Europe."

Zhou Feng hit the jackpot by accident. Li Jiale really knows the rabbit fur industry very well.

The biggest reason why he exports rabbit fur sweaters is that Hong Kong Island's wool textile industry is very developed, and the annual export output of rabbit fur sweaters can account for one-third of the world's total.

Therefore, Hong Kong Island's demand for rabbit fur is naturally huge, but part of Hong Kong Island's raw materials come from China, and most of them are imported from island countries. The reason for this is that the yarn textile industry in island countries is relatively developed, and the purchase volume is also large. Due to some policy factors, coupled with the fact that the domestic market is basically official direct sales, this strange phenomenon has occurred.

Hong Kong Island can import an average of about 2,000 tons of rabbit fur yarn and about 400 tons of rabbit fur from island countries each year.

Zhou Feng took a breath of cold air when this number came out. He really underestimated the market for rabbit fur before. According to the sales price of the Angora rabbit factory, this volume will surely create hundreds of millions of foreign exchange every year.

However, Zhou Feng could hear the dissatisfaction in Li Jiale's tone. It was understandable. Who would be happy to let these clever ghosts of the island country skin them for nothing?

However, there was nothing that could be done about it. The complexity here was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface. In another two years, when the market economy was more important, this situation would be much less common. However,

Zhou Feng was still a little worried. Compared with the country's overall exports, the volume of rabbit hair in Kaoshantun was a little small. He didn't know if the yarn factories in Hong Kong Island could appreciate it.

After hearing Zhou Feng's concerns, Li Jiale didn't dare to make a promise. This was the bad thing about bulk trade. Even if your price was cheap, people who made small fuss would not want to bother with you. He just said that he would take him with him tomorrow. Let's go visit several small yarn factories together.

Although he has never dealt directly with yarn factories, the textile industry in Hong Kong Island is so small and everyone knows each other, so communication is not a problem.

The next morning, Li Jiale and Ma Guoqing came to the hotel to pick up Zhou Feng and went straight to a textile industrial park in Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island's industrial planning is much clearer than that in China. Basically, all of Hong Kong Island's garment and yarn industries are in this park.

Li Jiale first went to the rabbit fur sweater production factory that he was familiar with before, and then referred to several yarn factories through these factories. Those who have been in sales know that the success rate of rash door-to-door visits and referrals is incomparable.

However, the result of the visit disappointed Zhou Feng and others. Several people visited all the introduced yarn factories, and the heads of the factories were very The polite reception, but after learning about the situation in Kaoshantun, all of them refused without exception.

Zhou Feng himself is a person who asks questions to the bottom of things, especially since this is related to the future pillar industry of Kaoshantun, and he must not go back so dejected.

After a deep chat, we can understand the crux of the problem. The small supply is only one of the reasons.

The average hair production of a long-haired rabbit is about one kilogram per year. At present, the long-haired rabbits in Kaoshantun, plus the new cubs born this year, can produce three to four thousand kilograms of rabbit hair by the end of this year.

Of course, this is not the most important problem. Fly meat is also meat, and low supply is not a problem. It doesn’t matter where you collect it, and it’s not a big deal to have one more supplier.

But the biggest problem is that at present, basically all the rabbit hair purchased from the island countries by these yarn mills has been graded.

First, all the rabbit hair is divided into different grades to match clothing of different quality and price. Second, the rabbit hair must be processed before it is processed into yarn.

It needs to be soaked and dried to remove grease and odor to ensure the quality of the yarn.

Zhou Feng frowned when he heard this. It was really true that everyone has their own way. If you don't have a deep understanding of the small rabbit hair industry, you will always have a half-understanding.

However, what made him feel a little relieved was that the preliminary processing process of this rabbit hair was not complicated, and it didn't even have much technical content.

It was just that for these yarn factories now, no matter how complicated it was, they had to add a process.

It was really not worth a big fight for such a small amount of raw materials.

Zhou Feng understood it as soon as he thought about it.

He and Li Jiale were right in the beginning.

They couldn't find a large yarn factory, but after choosing so many, they found that the scale was still too large, so they should find a small workshop.

Small workshops have a good appetite. They eat small quantities, and the purchase price is originally higher than that of some large yarn factories. In order to improve their own profits and competitiveness, they can only purchase rabbit hair from various channels.

The preliminary processing of rabbit hair, which is not difficult to operate, is not a difficult task for them. They are currently the best buyers for Kaoshantun.

After selecting the target customers, Zhou Feng was troubled by how to find these small factories. These small workshops were not as easy to find as large-scale factories. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack to find such a yarn factory in such a large industrial park.

Just when Zhou Feng was about to go home and come back another day, Ma Guoqing spoke.

"Xiaofeng, can you give me a copy of the sample you have?"
