Top of the Great Era

Chapter 2913 Martial Arts Leader

After discussing this with Zhou Shaoning, Zhou Buqi immediately contacted Lao Yan and asked him to come over.

The headquarters park of Astar is under planning and construction.

It is right next to the Ziweixing headquarters park.

Old Yan is right here.

It came over in a few minutes.

Zhou Buqi invited him to his office and said straight to the point: "Old Yan, are you very busy with work now?"

Yan Guangming seemed to be a lot fatter than before, with a big belly and a round face. He said with a smile, "Not bad. Estar is planning to build a headquarters park. I'm looking at the plan over there. We need to get this done. It's next to Ziweixing. It would be best if it has its own characteristics and can be unified with Ziweixing in overall style."

Zhou Buqi said awkwardly: "I have a project and would like to ask you for help."

"Okay, why are you being polite?" Yan Guangming thought he really wanted to trouble him with something. "We are brothers, why are you being polite? Just tell me what you want to say. Old Yan may not have any other skills, but I am good at asking people to drink."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "I'm not asking for a drink. I want to start a new company."

"what?"

Yan Guangming was slightly stunned.

Zhou Buqi said, "You should also know that I have been guiding the domestic mobile phone industry to solve the supply chain problems in the industry recently. One of the things is to clean up some of the supply chain's tail goods, obsolete goods, and inventory goods."

"Your copycat project?"

Yan Guangming opened his eyes wide and was a little surprised.

"Huh?" Zhou Buqi was stunned for a moment, "You know?"

Yan Guangming smiled and said, "I know. I have been investigating this matter recently. Lao Zhou... Zhou Shaoning said that you wanted to integrate the domestic copycat mobile phone industry and wanted to learn some industry information. The materials I gave you were all produced by me."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said, "That's fine! What do you think of this idea?"

"How would I know this?"

Yan Guangming shook his head repeatedly, very modestly.

However, his complexion had turned rosy, and there was an unconcealable sense of joy and pride on his chubby face.

Zhou Buqi pointed at him and said, "Be modest, be modest! If you don't understand, how could Zhou Shaoning assign such an important task to you? Everyone knows that among our group of people, you are the only gang leader. In the domestic mobile phone industry, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are the leader of the martial arts world!"

"Uh..." Yan Guangming waved his hand, "I don't have that ability. It's nothing more than a few more bad friends."

Zhou Buqi said in a deep voice: "You can see the current situation. The smart phone industry is doing better and better, squeezing out the domestic copycat phone industry. Many copycat phone manufacturers can no longer survive in China, so they have to go overseas to seek opportunities. But you also know their strength. With their level, they can't even survive in China, so how can they develop overseas?"

Yan Guangming agreed and said, "Well, it's all in vain to rely on them to go overseas! Among the domestic mobile phone manufacturers, only Astar, ZTE, Lenovo, and Huawei can really make it in the overseas market. Those small workshops in the south can't even make it in the markets of Indonesia and Cambodia, let alone go to developed countries. Many small workshops can't even meet the most basic technical requirements, and it's difficult to adapt to local operators." Zhou Buqi said, "Yes, there's no hope relying on them, we have to do it! We have to do it. If we don't do it, the domestic copycat mobile phone industry will collapse, causing not only local economic turmoil and massive unemployment, but also a huge waste of social resources. In terms of domestic productivity upgrades, these industries do need to be eliminated. However, if we open up the international market and face some underdeveloped, poor and weak countries, these social resources still have great value and can create a lot of social wealth."

“So we need to make this business a success.”

"Well, we must do it!"

"I know a lot about this. I have many friends working in the field of knockoff phones, and many of them have been my friends for more than 20 years."

Yan Guangming felt somewhat emotional.

  This is life!

If he hadn't met his benefactor Zhou Buqi, he might still be the boss of the electronics factory. In order to survive in the new era, how should electronics factories transform? In 05 or 06, he might have been engaged in the business of counterfeit mobile phones like his friends!

After all, this field is very lively and there are no technical barriers.

It’s easy to get started and you can do it if you have channels and connections.

But if you really start a counterfeit mobile phone business, that would be too low-class.

How can it be compared with now?

Now, Yan Guangming is a top-notch boss in the domestic mobile phone industry, especially in the unofficial arena. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the leader of the martial arts world. With the support of the Estar platform, he is fully qualified.

Another important point is the value!

  The current valuation of Asda exceeds 700 billion US dollars. Yan Guangming’s personal shareholding has reached 10%, which is the same as Zhou Shaoning’s. His net worth has reached an astonishing 70 billion US dollars... Looking at the domestic mobile phone industry, who is richer than him?

He also ranks among the top 30 on the domestic rich list!

With such a background, Yan Guangming is now more and more at ease in his circle of underworld. Old friends who were once on equal footing with him or even richer and more prestigious than him now look up to him.

That's the choice of life.

Following the right person is more important than anything else!

Yan Guangming never felt embarrassed about Zhou Buqi's youth, even though he was just a young college student at the beginning. Now he was already a local boss with a net worth of over 100 million yuan, and he was willing to serve Zhou Buqi as his younger brother.

  Looking back, I really want to thank myself back then!

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "You have many friends who are making copycat phones?"

Yan Guangming nodded, "Yes, a lot. I met many of my friends when I was running an electronics factory. Most of them are still doing business on the supply chain side. Just like you said, those leftovers, obsolete goods, inventory goods, and unqualified goods from suppliers, as well as some secretly transferred from OEM factories... These are all underground channels. In the past few years, this business has been directed to counterfeit mobile phone manufacturers."

Zhou Buqi was very happy, "It's not okay now, right?"

Yan Guangming said, "Yes, the business has been bad since the year before last. Many people kept looking for me and wanted me to help. How could I help at that time? Astar made high-quality mobile phones of big brands, and Motorola even cut off its feature phone business."

"it's good now!"

"Well, that's good now!"
