Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 2268: A Meet-up

Champagne beauty in the luminescent glass, snow-white thighs, a night of passion, who knows who.

"Boss Ji, this is the leader of our provincial commerce department. We have been waiting for you here for a while!"

Ji Donglai finished the interview. A man in a neat suit walked towards him, and his secretary, who was also in a neat suit, introduced him to him. Ji Donglai felt a little unhappy because he did not make an appointment in advance.

I am very busy every day with so many things to deal with. The other party took the initiative to intercept me, which is actually the greatest disrespect to Ji Donglai.

"Hello, Mr. Ji, my last name is Cong. I know you are very busy. We have brought some entrepreneurs from the province to set up a small meeting room in the next room. I would like you to give us some guidance!"

Different from Ji Donglai's indifferent attitude when he came before, Minister Cong was very friendly now and made a gesture of invitation to Ji Donglai.

"Boss Ji, you still have half an hour to carry out your activities. We have to leave after half an hour because we have a business meeting!"

After following Ji Donglai for such a long time, the other party could see that Ji Donglai was not happy and immediately spoke loudly.

Minister Cong was in an awkward position, but since he was able to reach this position, the other party was obviously well prepared.

"Boss Ji, you only need to tell us a few words in ten minutes!"

The scale of Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing is obvious to all, especially Yiyuan Supermarket and Yiyuan Ranch.

The entire Northeast is positioned by the state as a commercial grain reserve base, which means there are many grain processing companies. However, most of them are unknown because the local government does not attach much importance to private enterprises.

In addition, some companies are transformed from former old private enterprises, and their publicity efforts are not strong enough. This time, Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing, which is able to catch up with Ji Donglai, has to make necessary attempts even if it is shameless.

What does it mean to have a net outflow of 700 million people every year? Without enough private enterprises, the local population cannot be supported.

"Yes, please!"

Ji Donglai made a symbolic invitation gesture and went into the next room with Minister Cong.

"what?"

Ji Donglai was very surprised. Unlike ordinary meet-and-greet meetings, the two rows of large tables starting from the entrance were filled with goods, almost all of which were deep-processed grain products.

There are all kinds of snacks, such as rice crust, miso... as well as local specialty drinks such as kvass, beer, local liquor, black bread, and various grilled sausages.

"Wow..."

When they saw Ji Donglai coming in, all the entrepreneurs stood up and started applauding immediately.

Ji Donglai did not rush in, but stopped to check out the merchandise on Friday, which shocked many people. In traditional meet-and-greet events, every company boss would like to put himself in the spotlight and give himself every shot.

Showing one's face, especially in front of people all over the world, is a matter of glory to the family. If you add a few shocking words, then it is a complete IP. Ji Donglai did not move forward, but stopped where he was, picking up each product to examine it.

“Which company produced this?”

Ji Donglai picked up one of the bags of rice crusts, opened it and ate a few pieces. The taste was similar to those sold in the One Yuan Supermarket, so he just held it up.

"Mine, mine, Mr. Ji, it's produced by my company!"

An elderly man in his fifties hurried down from the terrace and stretched out his hand to Ji Donglai from a distance. Ji Donglai waved his hand to indicate that he had the dipping sauce for rice crust in his hand.

“Are they using local food?”

He handed the rice crust to his subordinates, and a few people followed suit. Ji Donglai wiped his hands with toilet paper and then shook hands with the other party.

"To be honest with you, Mr. Ji, there are four kinds of materials. The corn is local, the flour is from Gansu, the yam is from Jiangxi, and some other materials are imported from Brazil. We can guarantee the quality."

Facing the young man Ji Donglai, the entrepreneur answered with a smile on his face.

These people are all thinking about how to expand their businesses abroad, but they just can't. Business operators in the south and inland China tend to stick together.

"Well, Minister Cong, can you arrange for someone to take these products away for me? We will go back and test them one by one, and then contact our entrepreneurs. Time is indeed too tight today. If you have a product catalog, please send the electronic version to our assistant... Xiaohong, give Minister Cong a business card."

"We are committed to helping local businesses and try to bring special products and businesses abroad, otherwise we will not feel at ease! I'm sorry for everyone today. I have to leave temporarily for something. We will see you again if we are lucky enough!"

After standing at the door and looking at a few products, Ji Donglai had an idea in mind. He turned around to talk to Minister Cong, then waved to everyone.

"No problem, I'll pack it up for you right away. Thank you so much, this is the most beautiful thing we have heard this year..."

Minister Cong waved to the entrepreneurs while speaking, and everyone ran over to see Ji Donglai off.

Just like that, hundreds of people came out to see Ji Donglai and his companions off, and the scene was spectacular.

Later, all the products appeared in front of Ji Donglai, or more precisely, in front of the testing agency staff of Yuan Supermarket. This time, Ji Donglai had someone bring the equipment over. It would be best if he could bring some local products, but if he couldn't, it would be fine if he could help local companies upgrade.

"Boss Ji, these products meet our requirements, but they need to be inspected. They must strictly comply with our production standards, otherwise we cannot compromise! This year, when we were inspecting inside the customs, we cleared out a lot of non-compliant production companies. If we can get these companies to make up for it, we will be able to enrich our food categories, that's fine!"

As food after food passed the test, the person in charge reported loudly.

Ji Donglai nodded, and the assistant began to call these companies according to the contact numbers on the product packaging.

"What? Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing, factory inspection tomorrow? President Ji is coming in person... Sure, sure, we welcome you with open arms!"

The first person to undergo the factory inspection was the 50-year-old entrepreneur who shook hands with Ji Donglai. The other party’s factory was located in the outskirts of Harbin, and the location was a bit remote.

After the call, the other party immediately hired people to clean the factory overnight, even his wife and children were mobilized.

Unnecessary products are immediately thrown into the garbage dump, and all kinds of document management that have never been done before must now be done and must be completed overnight.

As a typical state-owned enterprise transformed into a non-state-owned enterprise, the other party’s hygiene management is fine and production is also good, but the scale cannot be expanded.

One of the most important reasons is that upstream companies are holding back payments too heavily. Just a reward group of 100 yuan would hold back payments for at least half a year. In the past two years, due to the mask incident, payments have been held back for a year and a half.

The entrepreneur begged for money from everyone he knew, and ended up being detained for seven days for causing trouble.

As for those large state-owned shopping malls, this company also supplies them, and the payment period starts from half a year, without any negotiation.

Such a long payment period would be a disaster for a small business with only one or two hundred employees.

Supplying to Wal-Mart or Carrefour? You don't have enough qualifications. Companies with less than 500 employees are not wanted at all. Besides, you have to keep up with the management. The current cash flow on the company's account means that they cannot expand production.

Now Yiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing has a good image in the hearts of people all over the country. This time, the boss has spent a lot of effort and money, hoping to meet with Ji Donglai. Even if he can give himself a little bit of quantity, the other party will survive.

The old employees who retired from the enterprise in recent years still need to receive their wages from here. There are also old cadres who were transferred out of this enterprise, and part of the funds need to be paid by the enterprise.

Liu Xun is now unable to cope with the situation. His children do not want to take over the company after seeing its current situation. According to the other party, it would be better to let it go bankrupt directly, which is much better than the current situation.

Of course, Liu Xun was not the only company contacted this time, and Ji Donglai only visited the other company in person.

When shaking hands with the other party, Ji Donglai felt that the other party was different.

In this way, Liu Xun led the entire company to work all night, and finished all the documents at around five in the morning. The whole family hoped to take a nap, but at half past six, the phone rang again.

"Hey, hello, Assistant Hong!"

Seeing that it was Ji Donglai's assistant calling, the other party quickly picked up the phone.

"Mr. Liu, our team has already started from here. It will take about 40 minutes to get to your place. What time do you start work there?"

Xiaohong and Ji Donglai got in the car and took notes carefully in their notebooks.

"We work in three shifts and are still in production. Come over and we'll pick you up at the factory!"

The work efficiency is so high that Liu Xun has to admire Ji Donglai's management team, who even leave home an hour earlier to worry about the morning rush hour.

At this time, Ji Donglai was resting with his eyes closed in the car. Qiu Haitang and the little guy stayed in the hotel to rest, and then went to other places to play. Ji Donglai set an example for these people.

Ji Donglai was accompanied by Jiang Hao Kun and Hua Yan Bao Liang. At this time, Hua Yan Bao Liang thought to himself that Ji Donglai was sick. What did this matter have to do with him?

Ran Bo was already accustomed to the roads in Harbin, and he drove fast and steadily. When they passed by a morning market, they stopped to buy breakfast for Ji Donglai and his gang, including fried cakes, sweet and sour pork, and grilled red sausage.

Forty minutes later, the car arrived at Liu Xun's factory.

Half of the company's employees came out to greet him at the door, and each of them had frost on their eyebrows. Ji Donglai stood up at the call of his assistant, and was fixed on the first sight when he got out of the car.

"Boss Liu, this is serious. You are kidding me by asking us to stand in the snow in such a cold day. If your product is not good, I will leave right now just because of this!"

Looking at these people standing upright, Ji Donglai criticized Liu Xun.

Liu Xun was very embarrassed. All the leaders who came to inspect in the past had this attitude. He didn't expect Ji Donglai to act like this today.

"Boss Ji, it's not because you are important, we..."

"Come on, everyone, disperse. Let's go directly to the workshop! My people are here to inspect the factory. Don't treat them like grandparents. We are in a cooperative relationship, not a subordinate relationship of superiors and subordinates. If the quality is good, your products will sell well in our supermarket, and the profit will be enough for you, and the rest is ours. That's enough. Don't engage in these formalities. They are so old. Oh, it's really..."
