Reborn in the red age

Chapter 257: OEM costs reduced by %

After some negotiation, Li Qingfeng agreed to give Wang Haitao a benefit of 10,000 yuan when the matter was completed.

When Wang Haitao heard that the benefit fee was only 10,000 yuan, although he was reluctant, he could only agree. Although it was not as good as expected, it was still better than nothing. He said that he would contact his friend tonight to resolve the matter as soon as possible. Done.

The purchase of foreign exchange and retention of profits was done very smoothly. In just three days, the two million US dollars arrived in the account of Wang Weimin's company. The other party also successfully received 6.1 million RMB, and the money and goods were cleared between the two parties. .

"Disgusting, it's disgusting to step on a horse"

At noon, Li Qingfeng was making noodles at home when Wang Weimin ran over and said with an unlucky look on his face.

He slowly took the noodles out of the pot and soaked them in warm water. Then he turned to look at Wang Weimin: "What's wrong? Who disgusted you?"

"Forget it, brother, do you know whose foreign exchange you asked me to exchange belongs to?"

"Don't be too pretentious, just say what you have to say."

"That foreign exchange is the foreign exchange retained by the OEM factory under our foreign trade company. It belongs to his grandmother. We have never squeezed these state-owned enterprises. The OEM fees given to them are not low. We ourselves have not made any money. Thinking It allows the country to earn some foreign exchange, but they actually do this. The profits we kindly leave to the country are allowed to go into their private pockets."

Over in the United States, there is a small mixed-race company that has been helping Wang Weimin's foreign trade company find OEM orders there.

Wang Weimin sneered and said disdainfully: "Why do you care whether they agree or not? Just do it if you want to do it, or get out if you don't. If you continue to inform us, even if the price of our OEM orders is reduced by 40%, there will still be people who want to do it. "

Qingfeng Li smiled and said with deep meaning: "Who knows what will happen in the future, maybe public property will be converted into private property."

Wang Weimin didn't stay with Li Qingfeng for long at noon. He had a lot of things to do in his two companies. After talking about this matter, he went back to busy with his own affairs.

After swallowing a mouthful of rice, Li Qingfeng said doubtfully: "Why should I be angry?"

Listening to Wang Weimin's angry complaints, Li Qingfeng was very calm, without any ups and downs in his heart, and was busy with the movements in his hands.

"Thirty percent? Is it too much? Can they agree to this unit price?" Chen Defa couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard that the price had been reduced by 30%.

In fact, there is no use in reducing OEM profits. Apart from the reduction in national foreign exchange income, it will not affect the money earned by the young masters at all.

"Brother, why aren't you angry at all about this?" Wang Weimin couldn't help but ask after seeing Qingfeng Li eating well.

He refused to eat, and Qingfeng Li did not persuade him. He left the kitchen with a full bowl of noodles, came to the dining table, and ate the lunch he had made by himself.

Qingfeng Li's words made Wang Weimin stunned. Isn't it obvious why he was angry? Why didn't you react at all?
Seeing Wang Weimin's appearance, Li Qingfeng put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "Isn't it just that someone spent some foreign exchange to make some money? It's not a big deal. If you are so angry about this that you can't eat, you will be better off when you encounter more people in the future. What an outrageous thing, how about vomiting three liters of blood out of anger?"

Li Qingfeng didn't do anything about the foreign exchange reselling by the son of the leader of the foundry. Before Wang Weimin left, he told Wang Weimin that the profits offered by the foreign trade company to the foundry were a bit high, and asked him to reduce the profit of each product of the foundry.

"How can I still be in the mood to eat now? I'm so disgusted by them that I can't eat." Wang Weimin waved his hands angrily, indicating that he was too angry to eat.

Over the years, Wang Weimin's foreign trade company has developed on a large scale, involving OEM production of many products in the light industry. Many factories in Sijiucheng and surrounding areas are Wang Weimin's OEM factories.

The notice of the reduction in OEM fees was notified to all OEM companies, which immediately caused a shock in the entire light textile and light industry circle in Sijiu City. The phone calls in the offices of the directors of various factories were not stopped, and they were all asking each other about the reduction in OEM fees. things.

Seeing Wang Weimin's firm attitude, Chen Defa stopped refuting, nodded and immediately went out to make arrangements.

"Is this a trivial matter? Is it possible that someone would dare to move the entire factory to his home?" Wang Weimin said with a strange expression after hearing Qingfeng Li's views on this incident.

But who makes Qingfeng Li feel unhappy about this kind of thing? Anyway, now that he has passed the stage of the most scarce foreign exchange, he feels comfortable.

Pour the prepared stew into the bowl filled with noodles. After mixing evenly, he pointed to the remaining noodles and said, "If you want to eat it yourself, I won't bother you."

Wang Weimin came out of Qingfeng Li's place. After finishing his work, he called his right-hand man Chen Defa in and asked him to send a notice to all the OEMs below that the original price of OEM fees would be reduced by 30%.

Putting money in your own hands will eventually be used in scientific research and industry. It is better than having someone use various means to put it into your own pocket and spend your days and nights drinking.

After these factory directors inquired among themselves, they learned that all the companies had lowered their OEM fees without any reason, which caused an uproar for a while, and they were trying to put pressure on Wang Weimin to raise the prices again.

Wang Weimin was not used to the connection between these people at all. He said that if he wanted to do it, he would do it. If he did not want to do it, he would stop cooperating after completing the order in hand. He directly cut off the phone in the office and did not answer anyone's call.

Wang Weimin's arrogant attitude made these factory directors very dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do. All the orders were in their hands, and the initiative was in their hands. Unless they didn't want to do the OEM business, otherwise, they would give them whatever they wanted. How many.

Since the exchange rate is not the real exchange rate in the market, the OEM fee paid by Wang Weimin in the past was converted into the national currency, and coupled with the government subsidies, it was able to barely maintain a balance of payments without losing money.

Now the OEM fee is suddenly reduced by 30%. If the OEM is given the current price, the company will face losses.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Wang Weimin and Li Qingfeng. Which state-owned enterprises are making money these days?
In the past, they made money because Wang Weimin gave up his own interests and subsidized them. The current loss is just because Wang Weimin took back his own interests.

Faced with the company's losses caused by the sudden reduction in foundry fees, although the losses were not of its own money, the political achievements were its own. Of course, everyone was dissatisfied and did not dare to offend Wang Weimin. They could only discuss privately how to get Wang Weimin to adjust the price again.

The organizer was the father of the young man who was selling foreign exchange. After everyone gathered, he took the lead and said: "Comrades, that price is not even enough to convert the price into local currency. We must find a way to let Wang Weimin change the price." Restore it back to its original state.”

"That Wang Weimin is not answering the phone now. He is determined to exploit our factories. The order is in his hands. What can I do if he doesn't accept it?" Director Liu of the leather shoe factory frowned and took a deep breath, helpless. said.

"Old Sun, today is your game. If you have any ideas, just say it. If possible, everyone will listen to you." Director Song of the textile factory looked at Director Sun who organized the game and said.

"Yes, yes, Lao Sun, if you have anything to say, just say it."

The others also agreed.

Seeing that everyone asked him to speak, Director Sun did not hold back and directly spoke of his own solution: "Okay, since everyone asked me to speak, I will tell you what I think. Since the words of us factory directors are not effective, then Can we ask the higher-level unit to go out and talk to Wang Weimin? If he doesn’t see us, we can do it, but can the higher-level unit not see him? What do you think of this idea? "

Everyone looked at each other for a moment. If the higher-level unit went to find Wang Weimin, what if Wang Weimin felt that he and others were using their power to suppress others, and what if he gave the order to someone else?
Factory Director Sun saw that everyone was hesitating, and quickly tried to persuade him again: "There is only one way at the moment, either everyone pays for Wang Weimin to do the work, or we give it a try. Wang Weimin will still be hanging around in Sijiu City in the future. He won't Do things extremely well.”

Everyone discussed quietly with each other and felt that what Director Sun said was reasonable. As long as Wang Weimin was still hanging around in Sijiu City in the future, he would not offend everyone too much, so they reluctantly agreed with Director Sun's statement and jointly wrote to the above. I wrote a letter requesting superior units to take action.

Several factories jointly reported the reduction of OEM fees, which attracted great attention from above. The leader of the light textile industry approached Wang Weimin and wanted to talk to Wang Weimin about the OEM fees.

Faced with the leader who took the initiative to come to negotiate, Wang Weimin refused to give any face and directly responded by saying that the United States had lowered the unit price for us.

What Wang Weimin was bitten by was America's lowered unit price. The leaders of the light industry here had nothing to say. They couldn't let Wang Weimin give money to state-owned factories, right?
This matter can only be handled according to Wang Weimin's instructions. Who should let others take the initiative? The superior leaders should not force it too much.

After sending away the superior leaders, Wang Weimin thought for a while and felt that someone must be causing trouble here. Otherwise, the superior leaders would not interfere with normal business practices.

After thinking for a while, I picked up the phone on the table and called a factory director with whom I had a good relationship to ask about the situation.

At the beginning, he definitely didn't say anything, but in the end, after Wang Weimin promised to increase the fee by 10%, the other party told Wang Weimin the truth.

After learning that it was Factory Director Sun who organized it, Wang Weimin was filled with hatred. You are so impatient, labor and management haven't come to trouble you yet, but you actually organized other people behind to plot against me. I must deal with you this time.

Immediately, Chen Defa was called over and asked to secretly find other OEMs. After the order in the hands of Director Sun was completed, he was kicked out of the OEM directly and no more OEM work was given to him.

If you meet someone who disgusts you, you must deal with it.

"Teacher Li, the students will be seniors soon. Applications for government-sponsored study abroad can be submitted. Let's talk about this during the class meeting for the students."

"Okay, I understand. I will go and talk to them about this in the afternoon class meeting."

Before the second half of his junior year was about to end, the school leaders informed Qingfeng Li that he could apply for a government-sponsored study abroad program.

At the class meeting that afternoon, when Li Qingfeng told the students in the class about studying abroad, they suddenly became excited. The students were really full of yearning for studying abroad, and they all seemed to be laughing. As if he was dripping with blood, he chattered to Qingfeng Li about the application process for studying abroad.

Students who felt they were eligible to apply for government-sponsored study abroad programs began to follow the application process and wrote application forms on their desks.

Watching the students excitedly filling out their study abroad applications, Li Qingfeng felt very complicated. These students were all the top students in the class. Many of them had internship experience in the research institute and were among Li Qingfeng's key training targets. He planned to take advantage of them. After graduation, they were recruited to Lemon Technology.

Now it seems that my training this year is going to be wasted.
Fortunately, not all of my key training targets have left, and a few of them have no interest in studying abroad. They sit in the classroom and quietly read the latest international journals brought from the institute.

"Teacher, I also want to study abroad."

Just when Li Qingfeng was sighing, Dong Yifen stood up from her stool and said loudly in front of the whole class.

"Forget it, classmate Dong Yifen, I advise you to give up this unrealistic idea. As far as your grades are concerned, you were not at the bottom of that exam. You will not be selected for government-sponsored study abroad." Before Li Qingfeng could speak, a classmate helped him. Qingfeng Li answered.

Other students who felt that they could not be chosen also echoed, mocking Dong Yifen for thinking nonsense.

"Teacher, look at the classmates in our class. I want to ask for improvement, but they ridicule, sarcastically, and undermine my ambition." Dong Yifen, who was ridiculed by the classmates around her, immediately complained to Qingfeng Li on the podium.

Although Qingfeng Li felt that this girl was indeed a little self-aware, Qingfeng Li couldn't ignore it when someone complained to him, so he waved his hand to stop the ridicule of the other students.

Li Qingfeng organized his words in his mind and said tactfully: "What, classmate Dong Yifen, the selection criteria for government-sponsored international students is excellent academic performance. Compared with other students, your academic performance may be slightly lacking."

"Teacher, are you looking down on me like them?" Dong Yifen pursed her lips and said unhappily.
