768 Africa, here we come

"Brother Yun, it's not that I don't help you. After I came back from Rongcheng last year, I contacted some people in charge of state-owned mines with good relations. They are not very interested in this..." Yun Fei said Song Shihui could only smile wryly because the order of [-] to [-] million was not enough to fit between his teeth.

Yunfei offended a lot of bosses. The equipment in those state-run mines was extremely outdated and had to be replaced, but the people in charge couldn’t make the decision at all. Their various mining equipment can only be purchased in state-owned factories.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the so-called procurement in state-owned factories is to boycott Hongqi Machinery Factory under Yun's Holdings.

In Hongqi Machinery Factory, mining equipment occupies a very large proportion.

If Hongqi Machinery wants to develop, it must obtain more business. If it does not have enough business support, it must get a blood transfusion from the Jiuyi Group. In fact, the blood transfusion is mainly from Jiuyi Heavy Industry.

"Aren't they very interested? That's strange!" Yun Fei was stunned.

"You know, China Minmetals is the largest manufacturer of mining equipment in China. They not only have their own mines, steel factories, but also their supporting machinery manufacturing factories..." Song Shihui said with a wry smile.

Minmetals is a giant, and most of the domestic mines are owned by them.

"So what about Minmetals? Does the Ministry of Mining still require these mines to use their equipment? This is a market economy, not the previous era of planned economy!"Yun Fei said with a sneer.

The people in the Machinery Industry Department basically wear the same pants as the guys from the Mining Department. Hearing Song Shihui's words, he immediately realized that those guys were boycotting him.

"That's what those private mine owners mean?"

Song Shihui nodded with a wry smile.

If he hadn't signed a contract with Hongqi Machinery Factory last year, it is estimated that Yunfei would not have gotten a penny of the contract.

In China, many businesses are not determined by the market, and the power and will of the country can be reflected in various places.Those bigwigs are probably because they cut prices in the machine tool industry last year.It's embarrassing for them, waiting for me here.

The major domestic machinery factories basically have a very good relationship with those steelmaking factories, and many leaders of the Ministry of Machinery Industry and the Ministry of Mining are from these state-owned factories.

Now that Song Shihui explained everything, Yunfei didn't need to go to the heads of those state-owned mining companies to discuss this issue, but went directly to the Northeast. Can't care less.

"The current situation is like this. The mining machinery equipment factory next door to our aerospace company can get a lot of business, but we can't get any orders..." The situation is very serious. If Hongqi Machinery Factory cannot get new orders .It has not yet fully resumed work, and it will be shut down again in a few months.

Only for the wire cutting business, until now, only more than 100 sales contracts have been signed, and there are only more than 1 million orders.

"The news is confirmed?" After all these years in China, Myron also knows that many things in China do not follow market rules.

Just like last year’s bid opening for the Three Gorges Project, Dongqi and Northeast Turbine Plants in Rongcheng’s production prices for some mechanical parts were 30.00% higher than foreign quotations. Don't sign a contract with them at a price that is [-]% higher than that of foreign countries.

"Yes. Let's not talk about those state-owned mining companies. The private mines in Jinxi and Inner Mongolia are not willing to discuss equipment procurement with us. The price of Minmetals' equipment is too high. It makes him prefer to use more manpower. Let's do this..." Yun Fei talked to many private mine owners when he was in Shanxi.

The management department above sent a message. If they still purchase equipment from Hongqi Machinery Factory, they will be put on small shoes sooner or later, right?

"If this is the case, Hongqi Machinery will have to change its project. Such a large factory, in addition to engaging in construction machinery..." Jiang Jianxing still wants to engage in construction machinery. Sany Heavy Industry in southern Shonan has been developing very prosperously in recent years.He looked hot.

Moreover, the Hongqi Machinery Factory has a foundation in this area. It was originally a large-scale machinery factory that produced various engineering equipment, various excavators, bulldozers, and some hoists, pump trucks, and concrete tank trucks needed for real estate. The technical level is average, and the production cost is too high.

This is the most fundamental reason for the serious loss of Hongqi Machinery Factory.

"In this case, our plan here has to be adjusted, and the business of engineering vehicle production must continue..." Wu Zhongda didn't care about Yun Fei's original strategy of concentrating on developing in one direction.

The most important thing now is to turn losses into profits first.

Yunfei lightened the burden on those bigwigs in the Ministry of Machinery Industry, but increased the burden on Jiuyi Group itself.

The relocation of Jiuyi Material Factory to Guocheng will not generate profits within a quarter, and their equipment update and scale expansion will require blood transfusions from Jiuyi Heavy Industry. Jiuyi Airlines rarely turned losses into profits last year, but the entire company’s profit was only More than 40...

However, even if the annual cost of the logistics company's storage center is very low, so far, it is still in the investment period and has not generated any profits.

"Indeed, the company's engineering vehicle business cannot be given up..." Jiang Jianxing also agreed with this point of view.

The manufacturing and sales of CNC machine tools, the main business of Jiuyi Group, cannot always provide blood transfusions to other companies, because there are too many industries that need blood transfusions from Jiuyi Heavy Industry, which severely limits the development of Jiuyi Heavy Industry.

At present, Jinling Heavy Industry and Jinling Foundry are still waiting for funds to update equipment and expand workshops.

"There is no problem with business recovery, but we must produce on the premise that there is an order, instead of going to the market after production. In addition, mining machinery is still our main business! This is our strategic development direction." Yun Said nonchalantly.

"This requires a market. Now those guys from the Ministry of Mining are holding us back. If we go to them, they will definitely not admit it. Without a market, we..." Jiang Jianxing said depressingly.

"I think we have to change our way of thinking. For a long time, we have focused on the domestic market, but for many things, the international market is the largest share!" Yun Fei looked at the three absolute cores in front of him seriously. Said.

"Internationally? The international market is monopolized by European and American mining equipment. It is not easy for us to grab food from their mouths..." Jiang Jianxing heard Yun Fei's words, and the international market is indeed far away. Much larger than the domestic market share.

If Jiuyi Group wants to continue to develop, it is far from enough to rely solely on domestic market share.

Since [-], Yunfei has set his sights on estimating the market, and then began to plan. In order to enter the international market, they even gave a large piece of fat to the Dutch. They are very clear.

"Not all places in the world are valued by international companies. What they value are those large mines, and some small mines, they don't care at all. This is our opportunity..." Yun Fei said with a smile.

If China wants to develop, it can only start from those places that European and American countries do not pay attention to.

"You mean Africa?" Jiang Jianxing frowned.

There are countless small mines in Africa, and those mine owners simply cannot afford to use those large mining equipment...

"Not only in Africa, but also in South America and Australia, there are many small mines. These are our opportunities!" Most Chinese companies enter the international market, using Africa as a springboard.

"Boss, I understand. I'm going to organize the company's salesmen to go to Africa to expand their business..." Wu Zhongda said happily.

"Although I personally don't like English, English is an international lingua franca. The salesmen we send out must understand both technology and language. Just translation is not enough. There are many college students in Hongqi Machinery Factory. Let Zhu Yuanyuan Immediately implement this matter, it is required that English must be able to carry out proficient conversations, and the technology must be able to fool people..."

A good salesperson must be able to act as a ruthless person who can sell even the land of the moon!

"What's the matter, wife? Who messed with you again?" Wu Fan got home from get off work, and saw his wife Fu Chunmei sitting in the living room watching TV with a displeased face, without cooking, and couldn't help but get a little dizzy.

This menopausal woman is not to be offended.Especially for women who are laid off during menopause, it is even more unbearable.Fu Chunmei used to be a small leader of the logistics department of Hongqi Machinery Factory, because after Hongqi Machinery Factory was acquired by Jiuyi Group, the company had a large layoff, and nearly half of the people were laid off at once...

The child is not at home for school, and no one helps me to share the anger of a menopausal woman who is idle and has nothing to do. These days...

"No one is messing with me. If you don't cook tonight, if you're hungry, go outside and have a bite..."

"Honey, didn't you go to the class reunion today? Could it be that you are having trouble with your classmates again?" Wu Fan sighed and prepared to cook by himself. There was nothing in the refrigerator except the leftover bowl of porridge from the morning. None, and there was nothing in the cupboard - Fu Chunmei didn't buy groceries.

Fu Chunmei is a technical secondary school student who graduated from the factory's children's school. She has not learned any skills, and she has no background in Hongqi Machinery. She has been busy taking care of her children and family these years. In the past two years, the elderly were sick and went to work. He was also fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, so it was only natural for him to be laid off.

"Don't mention it, didn't they just marry some men who sell tea eggs? They have a lot of bad money, and they are embarrassed in front of me..." Among the students in class one, Fu Chunmei is not the most beautiful, but the man she is looking for But the most educated.

This used to make all the classmates envious and jealous.

But it's different now. To measure a person, it is measured by how much money he makes.

In this day and age, it is generally accepted that those who engage in atomic bombs are not as rich as those who sell tea eggs. (To be continued..)
