Counterattack 1988

Chapter 119 Building a Factory
Wang Lin had a lot to talk about today. He signed the factory lease contract in the morning, went home for dinner at noon, and talked about machinery purchases with Xu Zhiwen from Dahua Company in the afternoon.

Xu Zhiwen was invited to the old office building of Hongguang Food Factory.

Now this building is owned by Wang Lin. He has demolished all the original signboards, and the new building is being renovated.

The Wang Lin that Xu Zhiwen saw today was completely different from the workshop owner he saw before.

Wang Lin drives a Mercedes-Benz, takes a young and beautiful female secretary with him, has his own office building, and his own factory building!
Xu Zhiwen saw Wang Lin's strength as well as his sincerity.

Wang Lin opened his mouth and said that he would build a large-scale sanitary napkin production factory, and then showed Xu Zhiwen the factory building.

"This area is my factory," Wang Lin waved his hand, "Mr. Xu, I sincerely want to open this factory, please give me the best price."

"Of course, Mr. Wang, we not only sell machinery, we also guarantee after-sales service. We are responsible for the entire installation process of the production line, as well as the training of employees, as well as all the raw materials you need. We can help you purchase goods from abroad."

"Is there no domestic material for producing sanitary napkins?"

Xu Zhiwen said: "The mainland does not yet have a complete supply chain. Some materials can only be imported from abroad."

Wang Lin pondered: "This is troublesome!"

Xu Zhi asked, "What's the matter? Is there any problem?"

Wang Lindao: "Import requires foreign exchange. As a private enterprise, where can we get foreign exchange? Even if we apply to the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, I'm afraid it will be very limited."

Before the reform and opening up, my country implemented strict centralized planning and management of foreign exchange, the state implemented unified management of foreign trade and foreign exchange, and implemented mandatory planning and management of foreign exchange receipts and payments.All foreign exchange income must be sold to the state, and foreign exchange is used for planned distribution; foreign debts are basically not raised, and foreign investment in China is not accepted; the RMB exchange rate is only used as an accounting tool.

After the reform and opening up, my country's foreign exchange management system has changed in the direction of gradually reducing mandatory plans and continuously cultivating and strengthening the basic role of market mechanisms in the allocation of foreign exchange resources in accordance with the fundamental requirements of economic and social development and economic system reform.

From 1978 to 1993, the reform of my country's foreign exchange management system started.This stage is characterized by the enhancement of corporate foreign exchange autonomy and the implementation of a dual-track exchange rate system.

In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of export enterprises to earn foreign exchange and ensure that the limited foreign exchange resources are concentrated for the construction of the national economy, the method of retaining foreign exchange has been implemented since 1979. While centralized management of foreign exchange, unified balance, and ensuring key points, it is appropriately reserved for foreign exchange earning places and enterprises A certain proportion of foreign exchange is allowed, and units that hold retained foreign exchange are allowed to transfer excess foreign exchange quotas to units that are short of foreign exchange. The dual exchange rate system of official exchange rate and adjustment market exchange rate coexists.

The point is that enterprises only have a certain percentage of foreign exchange purchase quota!

Foreign exchange quota limits the expansion and development of enterprises.

Especially for private enterprises, it is almost difficult to obtain more foreign exchange quotas.

Therefore, at this stage, my country's private enterprises cannot compete with state-owned enterprises in exporting.

State-owned enterprises are backed by the government, and all resources are first tilted towards state-owned enterprises.

Private companies can't even import raw materials, so what can they compete with?

Without foreign exchange, the factory cannot import raw materials, and the neck of the factory will be strangled to death!
This major change will not change until at least the early 90s. Enterprises earning foreign exchange in later generations not only have no quota limit, but even have considerable high tax rebate subsidies!
Before that, if Wang Lin wanted to develop his business, he had to rely on himself to find a way.

He is just a common man, relying on the good policy of buying and selling treasury bills, he was lucky enough to make his first pot of gold. He has no strong background and no advantageous contacts. Who can he turn to for foreign exchange quota?

Wang Lin's desire to make a big splash suddenly turned half cold.

Xu Zhiwen said: "Mr. Wang, in fact, you don't have to worry. With the current foreign exchange quota, it is enough for you to run a factory. As for future expansion, that is a matter of the future, right?"

Wang Lin knows that the other party is eager to sell the production line, so of course he only picks good things to say to you.

"Mr. Xu, I would like to invest in a factory of about 80 yuan first. At this stage, this scale is sufficient."

"Yes, in fact, the production capacity of the production line can definitely meet the demand. After the business expands, you can order a new production line at any time."

"Before formally cooperating, I need to know about your company's relevant qualifications, as well as the quality and production capacity of the agent's production line."

"We have a cooperative factory in mainland China, which is a standardized production factory. You can go to inspect it, or if you have time, I can take you to Xiangjiang headquarters for field inspection. The production line we represent is the most famous in Japan. Brands, and most sanitary napkin manufacturers in Japan also use this production line."

Wang Linyi didn't believe it: "As far as I know, the Japanese are very smart in business. They use the most advanced production lines in their own country. What are sold abroad are the previous generation or even several generations of production lines that have been eliminated?"

Xu Zhiwen said with a smile: "I don't rule out that some Seiko companies will do this. It involves the commercial secrets of advanced industrial technology between countries, but I can assure you that the sanitary napkin production line, which is a production line of ordinary civilian use, It does not involve military technical secrets, and all the machines we sell are the latest models. If Mr. Wang still has doubts, he can go to the Japanese main factory for investigation and research in person.”

Wang Lindao: "Of course I will carry out the relevant inspection work. I will sign a cooperation letter of intent with you today, please prepare the relevant production lines and mechanical equipment, and I will invite you to come over to install the factory after I finish cleaning it."

Xu Zhiwen said: "Mr. Wang, please pay some deposit first, so that we can prepare the production line."

Wang Lin smiled slightly: "Mr. Xu, what I want to sign with you is an installment sales contract!"

Xu Zhiwen was startled and said, "A contract for installment payment?"

Wang Lindao: "The production line is a high-end durable commodity. This kind of commodity is suitable for installment payment sales contracts. As the name suggests, the installment payment sales contract is the total price that I will pay, and I will pay your company in installments within a certain period of time. .”

Xu Zhiwen rubbed his chin and said in thought: "President Wang, you are embarrassing me. We used to do business with cash settlement, and never made installment payments."

Wang Lindao: "It's not that I can't afford the money, let alone 80, even 200 million, I can afford it at any time."

Xu Zhiwen looked at the million-dollar Mercedes-Benz parked outside, then at the secretary Tian Xiaoqing who had an outstanding temperament, and smiled slightly: "In this regard, I believe in Mr. Wang's strength. How many installments are there?"

Wang Lindao: "It doesn't take too long, it's limited to 24 periods. First, I have fixed assets, which can prove my strength. Second, I need time to verify your production line and after-sales service. If you sell it to me It is a backward and obsolete product. After it is put into production, there are constant problems. If it is necessary to stop production for maintenance in three days, then my business will not be able to be done. With this installment contract, it is also a constraint on your credit. It really happens like this situation, the loss is yourselves!"

Xu Zhiwen said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, you are worrying too much. We will never do this kind of thing. We mainly need to cooperate with you in the import of raw materials!"

Wang Lindao: "Human favors belong to favors, and business belongs to business. I trust you, but you also have to trust me. I have a factory, an office building, assets, and a luxury car. Are you still afraid that I won't make it?"

"That's not true." Xu Zhiwen said, "This is a big matter, and I can't make the decision. I'm just a sales representative. How about it, Mr. Wang, please allow me to ask the company headquarters for instructions. If possible, I will contact you again." .”

"Okay. Please hurry up! I believe that you are not the only company that sells sanitary napkin production lines. The production lines in Germany and the United States are also good!"

"Yes, yes. As soon as possible!" Xu Zhiwen and Wang Lin shook hands, "It's getting late, I'll go back to the company first, and I'll contact you the day after tomorrow at the latest."

"OK, bye."

After Xu Zhiwen left, Tian Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Mr. Wang, your move is very clever. I learned it again."

Wang Lin laughed and said, "You called me Mr. Wang too?"

Tian Xiaoqing smiled coquettishly: "You are my President Wang! You are also my good teacher and helpful friend. Following you, I have learned a lot of knowledge."

Wang Lindao: "You don't go into the sea, learning these things is useless to you."

Tian Xiaoqing said: "This is also called increasing life experience. The things we have done and the books we have read will all become our life experience and be engraved in our temperament. Although I am only a policeman, I will encounter similar people in the future. Commercial dispute cases, at least I know what's going on."

Wang Lin laughed: "You are an emotional person. You should call me by my name! You call me Mr. Wang. It feels weird. If we go out together in the future, people will think that I am really some kind of big boss, and they will follow us specially. Then Not good."

Tian Xiaoqing said: "Okay. You bought a car and want to open a factory. The money will be used up quickly."

Wang Lindao: "I walk outside with so much money every day, which is similar to a walking cash truck. I am also afraid! I am a diversified investment, and I don't put eggs in the same basket. We only bring one It is the most convenient for more than one million people to travel.”

He went to the office building to see the renovation situation, and told the workers how to decorate where.

Time passed without knowing it.

Wang Lin looked at the time, it was past five o'clock.

The decoration workers did not get off work so early because they had to catch up with the schedule.

Wang Lin sent Tian Xiaoqing home, and when he was about to go home for dinner, he suddenly remembered something.

He quickly turned the steering wheel and came to the cinema.

Stopped the car outside the cinema, Wang Lin looked around.

Zhou porridge is not here!

Finished!

I was late for more than five minutes, and my date with Zhou Congee was ruined!

She already had complaints against him, but now she couldn't explain it clearly.

Wang Lin smiled wryly, and when he was about to go home, he suddenly saw a figure on the left side of the porch.

That was the place where he and Zhou Congee had their second date, and it was also the place where she punished him with popsicles.

Wang Lin strode over.

"Zhou Congee!" Wang Lin heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her leaning against the pillar, "Sorry, I'm late."

"I don't want to hear I'm sorry!" Zhou Porridge bit his lip, "Don't you know? Every time you say sorry in a relationship between a man and a woman, it means that the relationship between the two is estranged."

Wang Lindao: "I'm going to talk about some things about opening the factory today, so I'm late."

"No need to explain! We are just ordinary friends now! I am not your someone, you don't need to explain to me!"

"I thought you were gone? You said you'd only wait for me for five minutes."

"I want to leave too, but I think again, you are so stupid, if you come and don't see me, will you wait here for me? Then you will turn into stone?"

She spoke easily, but her tone was full of bitterness.

Feeling sad for a while, Wang Lin opened his arms and embraced her.

"I'll run here after I get off work. I'm afraid you won't wait for me if you're tired of waiting too long. I'm so hungry. Wang Lin, take me to eat, okay?" Zhou Congee's limp body, It was as if there were no bones in his arms, "I waited so hard for you to invite me out of the restaurant."

"We're going right away. I'll take you there now."

"My feet are sore and I can't walk."

"I'll carry you into the car."

"No, I was seen."

She smiled and broke free from his embrace.

The two came to the side of the car one after the other, Wang Lin opened the door and invited her to get in the car.

"What do you want to eat?" Wang Lin started the car and asked her, "Go to the International Hotel?"

"I want to eat eight-treasure duck, crystal shrimp, Songjiang perch, deep-fried river shrimp..."

"Can the two of us eat so much?"

"It's rare to kill you once, are you still reluctant?"

"Okay, you can order whatever you want!"

The International Hotel is the best place to treat guests to dinner in this era.

Wang Lin has been here several times, and he can be regarded as a frequent visitor here, and he is familiar with the road.

Sure enough, Zhou Congee ordered the dishes she most wanted to eat.

When one after another of the good dishes came to the table, Zhou Congee was stunned: "Is the portion so big? We really can't finish it."

Wang Lindao: "If you can't finish eating, pack it up and go back to eat."

Zhou Congee said: "Call my sister to eat?"

"No, it's just the two of us. I want to treat your sister, next time."

"Hey! Then I won't be polite!"

Crystal Shrimp, Songjiang Sea Bass, Fried River Shrimp, these three dishes look like a lot, but they don’t actually taste like much meat.

Eight-treasure duck uses a duck that weighs about three catties. It has more bones and less meat, and it tastes fast.

Wang Lin and Zhou Porridge finished eating like a storm.

"It's better to eat Chinese food, it's full!" Wang Lin thought of the Western food he ate the last two times. He spent a lot of money and felt like he didn't eat.

Zhou Porridge held his belly and said with a smile, "I'm going to grow meat!"

Wang Lin raised his wrist and looked at the time.

Zhou Congee said with a sullen face, "What's the matter? Are you in a hurry to go home with her? You can go!"

"No!" Wang Lin quickly lowered his wrist, "I'll just check the time, why are you so sensitive and suspicious?"

He explained again: "My sister comes to my house tonight, don't I care about your brother's marriage to her?"

Zhou Porridge was surprised: "Then you should go home earlier! When you have the result, remember to tell us as soon as possible. If my brother is half as good at coaxing women as you are, it's not like he hasn't talked about a girlfriend yet! You know Why didn't he contact that girl in Jingli?"

"I don't know, just tell me."

"My brother asked her if she couldn't get engaged on National Day. The woman wrote back and said, how could anyone mention engagement in the letter? My brother wrote back and said, then I will call you to propose marriage?"

Wang Lin was stunned: "Is there anything wrong with that? Because of this reason, that woman broke up? Isn't that too hypocritical? Then I support their breakup!"

Zhou Congee stared and said, "You also think it's right?"

Wang Lindao: "Shouldn't it be? It's hard to serve such a woman when she is married! Hey, what's the correct answer? I really don't know."

Zhou Porridge gave him a blank look: "Think again! If you don't know the answer, it means you are as stupid as my brother! Alright, let's go!"

Wang Lin couldn't figure it out, thinking that woman is really a busybody!
