Chapter 32

"okay!"

One sentence can make a middle-aged man happy all day long.

The driver put his right hand into gear, stepped on the accelerator, and took the unlit cigarette from Gu Han's mouth.

"There is a Xuanhe door in the passenger compartment. I can tell at a glance that your family is in good condition, young man. You must not be used to smoking these cigarettes. You will cough if you smoke too much."

Gu Han was not polite at all. He smiled and opened the pack of brand new Xuanhemen from the cab, but he took out two at a time and handed the other to the driver.

"I'll give you a flat price of four hundred for this order. It doesn't cover a lot of distance. It's just a hassle of stopping and walking. Don't worry about it later."

The driver smiled and didn't refuse. He held this precious cigarette in his mouth, which he usually couldn't bear to smoke, with a look of emotion on his face.

"400 yuan! Who am I to find it troublesome? I can't earn this amount even if I work so hard for a whole day without taking a break."

"Don't say it's troublesome. You just want to go to Mars. I'll put the accelerator in fifth gear and step on it to send you there."

"Haha, you are quite humorous."

In just one cigarette, the two men had become familiar with each other. The driver was quite emotional about Jiangbei going to visit the factory.

"The people who go to that place these days are basically young people your age."

"We old antiques can't keep up with the trend of the times. You young people are much better than us. You haven't even been to the next village a few times."

Gu Han smiled and flattered the driver, "You can't say that. You already have a son at my age. In this aspect alone, I can't compare to you."

This sentence made the driver's uncle happy. He started driving with ease. He released the handbrake, put it into gear and started, all in one go.

"Speaking of which, uncle, are there many people going to the industrial base these days?"

Gu Han is actually more concerned about this issue. With the Olympics approaching, there will naturally be a group of people with extremely unique vision who will also focus on the production of Olympic peripherals.

If there are a lot of people paying attention, then naturally producing Olympic peripherals will be a big challenge. Gu Han is relatively inexperienced, has no mature connections, and does not have a mature sales system.

The real core competitiveness is information gap.

With the perspective of a reborn person, Gu Han only knew that the enthusiasm of the people for the Olympic Games was very high this time, and the production of Olympic peripherals was almost a huge profit industry.

However, Gu Han has not investigated how many factories are producing Olympic peripherals in the market.

If there are ten or eight in Jiangbei City alone, then this road can basically be abandoned.

Involution is always the easiest way to destroy a hugely profitable industry.

The driver recalled a little bit.

"There can be three or four young people a week."

"There are people from college, people who have just started their own business, and they make dolls that I can't even understand."

"I don't know if it will work."

The driver did tell Gu Han's question, but he didn't know if it would work.

If there are too many factories producing Olympic peripherals, we will have to find another way and start by selling and reselling Olympic peripherals.

"Which one are you going to go to first? Or should we go through each one."

"Which factory has the most people going there, go to that factory first."

Adhering to the principle of not stepping on pitfalls when there are many people, but stepping on pitfalls together, we first visited a few large factories.

As for the small factories around him, Gu Han didn't know much about them. Without the introduction of acquaintances, it was easy to be fooled even to the bone.

Speaking of this, I have to mention a friend of Gu Han's named Qin.

In addition to being a senior dog licker, he also has a lofty entrepreneurial ideal.

In the next few decades, clothes will be sold when Taobao is popular, tea will be sold when Xixi is popular, and garbage bags will be sold when Douyin is popular.

Because it never pays attention to factory production, it is completely ruined by the garbage products produced by assembly line merchants. The return rate is as high as 99%, and the other 1% is still supported by its mother.

Work as a cook for a year, lose all your money in an hour, and then work hard for another year.

Always young, always passionate, always happy, and never look back on the road to losing money.

After calling the police and arresting the unscrupulous manufacturer, they discovered that it was the same group of people who defrauded him of his money. They first produced inferior clothes, then inferior tea, and finally even garbage bags.

As luck would have it, Qin Longfei caught up with him all by himself. This person would often complain in the following decades.

Why do these unscrupulous connoisseurs catch him alone?
Gu Han said with a smile that Bodhisattva Qin Longfei has a kind heart.

I work tirelessly to start a family and start a career for others, and I spend my whole life burning my life for others.

What is this if not a Bodhisattva?
What’s even more ridiculous is that when he was arrested, the owner of the unscrupulous businessman was still complaining that if Qin Longfei worked harder, he would upgrade the G500 next month.

While chatting with the driver, the taxi stopped in an open area. Opposite it was a low wall that seemed to be about 2000 meters long, with red slogans printed on the gray and white wall.

"No matter the wind or rain, I will wait for you in the factory."

Directly across the road, there is a sliding door with automatic linking technology, which was definitely advanced in 08. On the red bricks next to the door are several gilded block letters.

"Beidao District Light Factory Base."

A small section of the banner was pasted with transparent tape on the lower left corner of the chant.

"We welcome the 2008 Jiangbei Senior Vocational High School students to come to our factory for internship."

"Through hard work and simplicity, working as a worker is the best among people."

It perfectly combines the necessary conditions for an S-class factory.It was built like a prison, with red banners hanging everywhere, and the main force of workers were graduates of higher vocational colleges.

The first impression was perfect.

This kind of factory is what Gu Han is looking for. The work is fierce, the efficiency is high, and the labor cost is very low.

The old man who opened the door was not surprised to see another young man, and waved Gu Han in.

"Young man, don't register. You'll be out soon anyway. It's a waste of paper to write your name."

Gu Han nodded in response. It seemed that there were many people who encountered obstacles in this factory, and they were mainly young people. The old men were all familiar with the process.

After walking alone on a short red brick road, Gu Han finally found a place that resembled a road sign.

"There are actually twelve large workshops?"

The diversity of the production workshop is enough to show that the factory has sufficient production capacity, and it also reflects the maturity of the production process.

It is roughly the same as the information Gu Han himself checked online. Even if it is mixed with water, it should not have much moisture.

"Doll-like cloth crafts, the first workshop."

Following the direction guided by the street signs, Gu Han found the reception desk of the first production workshop without much effort.

A reception room of nearly 500 square meters, the hall occupies half of the geographical location, and there are only a few old black leather sofas placed in the center of the hall. They must have been left untouched for a long time and have fallen dust.

The aunt sitting in the office had a look of resentment on her face, and when she caught sight of another young man, her expression became even more ugly, and he spoke an unknown dialect.

"Baby! What do you do?"

"Two hundred meters to the left of the toilet, the cafeteria has closed."

Gu Han walked over and knocked on the production sign, "Auntie, I would like to ask about the production situation in our workshop. Can we accept large-scale production orders?"

Auntie looked up and smiled, then turned off the radio on her left. "You're so professional, you're talking about large-scale production? What's the scale? Two dolls or three." "I've asked them to put a sign on the door a long time ago. They don't accept private customization. You young guys The love affair made Auntie dizzy."

After putting away her red armband, and seeing that no one else would come, Auntie was getting ready to get off work, and by the way, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds on her plate and gave them to Gu Han.

"Three or two every day. If you want to make some kind of love token, I have to order a pair."

"You, what are you going to do? It's also the Supreme... What is the Supreme..."

"The Supreme Treasure and Fairy Zixia?"

The aunt nodded and made a correct expression. It seemed that she was really tortured by the young people.

It seems that the wave of love in 1 is still unavoidable. The hot joke of loving you for [-] years is really a classic.

"It's good that you know. Auntie has made it clear to you that she won't accept this kind of customization."

"If you don't have anything else to do, Auntie will be off work."

Gu Han reached out to stop his aunt. It seemed that the wave of deindustrialization in domestic second-tier cities was still very obvious.

Recently, there have been obviously not enough orders in the factory. This can be seen from the dusty sofa at the door and the aunt who got off work nearly two hours early. This has become a norm.

That is to say, the production of Olympic peripheral products is not actually involved. Most orders from the factory are still for dolls and love crafts.

"Auntie, can you take me to the factory to have a look? I want to see the efficiency of the workers on the assembly line and the mechanization of our factory."

"Tsk" Auntie clicked her tongue softly, quite dissatisfied with Gu Han's action of reaching out to stop her.

"You kid, you don't understand sense. If you don't want to make one or two, even if you produce 100 or [-], our factory won't do it."

"The daily wage for student dolls is 50 yuan, and your orders are not enough to cover the factory's electricity bill for a day."

"Do you understand now?"

After the aunt explained clearly, she wanted to leave. Unexpectedly, Gu Han still refused to let go, which frightened the aunt.

Looking around, Gu Han didn't have his work badge on, so it didn't look like he was sent by the chief executive for inspection.

Gu Han couldn't laugh or cry, he took out the Fuwa drawings that he had prepared and handed them over, "Auntie, I am really not joking."

"This is something I want to produce, probably tens of thousands of units, so I want to see if the internal structure of the factory can meet my requirements."

The aunt glanced at it and was not interested in the things on the drawings, but she was very dissatisfied with the tens of thousands of sets Gu Han said.

"What are you talking about, young man?"

"It costs tens of thousands of sets for your adults to come over. Can a baby keep his word?"

"That's it. Auntie really has to get off work, otherwise she won't be able to make it to the kindergarten at noon."

The aunt left chatteringly, leaving Gu Han alone in the messy workshop hall.

Going out to do things with a childish face does mean getting half the result with half the effort.

Large production companies do not pay much attention to the reception service at the front desk, and they are completely unaware that reception service is actually the most important part of the production process.

Gu Han couldn't even imagine how many orders this aunt alone had pushed away from the factory?

It’s no wonder that many factories closed down during this period, and employees were not very motivated. Anyway, no matter how many orders came in from the factory, the aunts would receive them with dead wages.

As time goes by, naturally I have no enthusiasm for work. I can just hang out for a while every day and wait for retirement.

After waiting for another half hour or so, Gu Han didn't even see any staff. The first trip to visit the factory ended so absurdly and hastily.

Gu Han was so full of enthusiasm that he didn't even see the hair of the manufacturer.

The old man at the door greeted Gu Han in surprise, "Young man has been staying in there the longest lately. How is it? Has the deal been concluded?"

"It's almost there. It's hard to say whether it will work out or not, but we almost got it done anyway."

Gu Han laughed at himself and walked to the taxi waiting on the roadside. Under the guidance of the driver, he went to nine other factories in succession.

"No, young man, custom-made things like yours require special machines, but we don't have them here."

……

"It's easy to talk, easy to talk. Please pay a deposit first. Pay the deposit and I will take you to the factory to have a look."

……

"Come on, come on, eat the fruit. Sit down first. Auntie likes handsome young guys like you. Do you have a girlfriend?"

……

"It can be done, it can be done, but it's a bit difficult, and you can overcome it. That's right, we have a condition, but it's not really a big condition."

……

In one day, we almost visited the entire gathering place of profiteers. Some wanted Gu Han's deposit, some wanted Gu Han's principal, and some wanted Gu Han himself.

No wonder Qin Longfei was deceived every year during his entrepreneurial period. Qin Longfei might not have been able to survive the 30-year-old aunt alone. With a touch of red lips and high heels, he almost looked up on Gu Han's face.

Back in the taxi, the uncle driver handed Gu Han a Xuanhemen, gave Gu Han a very positive thumbs up, and gave him a sincere thumbs up.

"Don't be discouraged, young man. No matter whether the negotiation is successful or not, your tenacity is the best among the customers I have attracted. It's almost [-] o'clock in the afternoon at nine o'clock in the morning."

"My son is about the same age as you. He knows how to play games every day, but he is not as good as you."

Gu Han smiled and didn't respond. In fact, when he was free, he also liked to play games all day long.

"Go back, uncle."

"I'm really troubling you today. I'll give you an extra fifty. Go back and give your wife and children an extra meal."

It was the driver's turn to smile and respond, and took out the 450 yuan he had originally promised from the [-] yuan handed over by Gu Han.

"We are honest people, so we can do whatever we say. Your day is not easy either. You broke your leg and couldn't get anything done, so you can still take care of my thoughts."

"It's just that you are so angry. At your age, I can't compare to you among 1 people."

"My surname is Wang, and we are friends."

Gu Han nodded and wrote down Lao Wang's phone number in his phone book. Who would have thought that the biggest gain he would get from transferring all day long would be the driver's uncle's phone number...

Without qualifications, getting in touch with big factories was not as easy as Gu Han imagined. For example, the first big factory had suitable conditions in all aspects, but it didn't pay enough attention to himself.

You have to find a way to create an identity for yourself, such as a boss, an entrepreneur, or a representative.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to enter the factory reception area, let alone talk about orders.

College students are restricted in starting their own business, and high school graduates seem to have a completely dead end.

After staying in the hotbed of success in his previous life for so long, Gu Han had somewhat forgotten the hardships of entrepreneurs at the bottom.

It is true that the late emperor collapsed in the middle of his career.

No, Gu Han was about to collapse before his career even started.

Driving from the desolation of the suburbs into the neon lights of the city, Gu Han's thoughts gradually became heavier, until the strong vibration of his cell phone brought Gu Han back to reality.

It was a call from Jian Wei.
