Chapter 219 Suppliers who worry about gains and losses
It can be said that Yuanda Electric takes very good care of its suppliers.
Everyone was arranged to stay at the Seaside Hotel, which is currently the best hotel in Nangang area. All expenses during their stay in Nangang city will be borne by Yuanda Electric.
Although it only cost a small amount of money, especially for Yuanda Electrical Appliances, the success was due to the thoughtful arrangements in all aspects, which made the supplier representatives very emotional.
No matter tonight, everyone no longer has the same sense of expectation for the seafood dinner provided by the seaside hotel tonight, and the more they eat, the more tasteless it becomes.
Without him, it's just because what happened today far exceeded everyone's expectations, just because there is a mystery today that I can't sleep without thinking about.
Everyone's thoughts are not on this, so eating seafood is naturally boring.
So, everyone ate a few bites in a hurry, and came to the conference room early to wait in a tacit understanding.
Yuanda Electric informed that Mr. Yao will hold a meeting with everyone tonight to meet and chat informally. Therefore, the conference room was decorated in the style of a tea party in advance, making it look like a Spring Festival group visit.
Jiang Baoguo didn't drink any alcohol tonight. He fell in love with drinking tea. He took over the task of making tea from the waiter and started making tea himself. The waiter helped bring it to everyone.
Finally, Jiang Baoguo placed a cup of tea in front of the main seat and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I have been in Nangang much longer than you. I have been to Hu Jian several times. I didn't expect that the people of Guangdong Province are the same as the people of Hu Jian.
, all like to make tea and drink tea.”
"Mr. Jiang has time to visit the Chaoshan area. The tea culture there has a longer history. It is said that a considerable number of people in the Nangang area migrated from the Hujian coast in the early years. Some stopped in the Chaoshan area, and the rest
Walk all the way west along the seaside until Nangang, which was still known as the barbarian land at that time." Rong Hao took the initiative to talk to ease his nervousness.
He was nervous because he didn’t know what the sales volume of his products would be today. He was uneasy because Yuanda Electric seemed to be working on a new way of doing things, and he was worried that he would not be able to keep up with Yuanda Electric’s pace.
Nowadays, who doesn’t know that as long as the product can be put on the shelves of Yuanda Electrical Appliances, it means that it has a stable sales channel.
Rong Sheng's main products are small household appliances, rice cookers, gas stoves, disinfection cabinets, etc. The only major appliances are refrigerators. Logically speaking, Rong Sheng's sales should be relatively good, but the result is exactly the opposite.
Therefore, Rong Hao's mood was not as relaxed as he imagined.
"Su Dongpo was exiled to the Nangang area and left famous poems and lines here." Fang Dezhong said with a smile.
Ms. Dong said, "At that time, I was participating in an import and export trade exhibition in Yuecheng. Yuanda Electric held a dinner party in the name of Yuanda Trading. I remember that Mr. Yao told me that the purchasing power of the Nangang area was very strong. At that time, I concluded that
Doubtful."
Everyone's eyes turned over, and their faces were more or less embarrassed.
At that time, except for Gree, other manufacturers expressed anger at the conditions proposed by Yuanda Electric. Gree stood on the side of Yuanda Electric from beginning to end and can be said to be the staunchest supporter.
Therefore, Gree got the largest government purchase order. No one could say anything, and no one dared to say anything. This was done at a huge risk. Moreover, in addition to Gree, the other two main air-conditioning products are
Meiling, Midea, Fang Dezhong and Li Mei were embarrassed to say anything because they also got part of the order.
However, Meiling was very sensitive. After realizing that Gree was unable to compete with air conditioners, they decisively promoted electric fans and relied on quantity to win, which actually achieved good results.
Miss Dong smiled lightly and said, "I spent some time doing some research on the Nangang area, and unexpectedly discovered that a large number of locals immigrated to Hong Kong and Macau in the early years. Since the early 1980s, these people have basically established a firm foothold.
, began to feed back the hometown.”
"The most common way is to send money back, and the other way is to invest money back. Most of them are small investments, but the advantage lies in the large amount. This strong capital injection has not yet shown its economic development, but purchasing power has first shown its effect.
Come out."
"Especially in the urban area, each of the four districts directly under the city has a lot of private capital flowing back. Secondly, there are a large number of state-owned enterprises in the Nangang area. It is roughly estimated that there are tens of thousands of state-owned enterprise employees. Minmetals alone,
Xilin Farm and Offshore Oil have more than 50,000 employees. These people have the strongest purchasing power."
"Another reason is population. I just learned that Nangang area is actually the second most populous prefecture-level city in our province, second only to the provincial capital."
"The Nangang area is a very good and big market. Mr. Yao has seen it, but I have not. And I believe that Mr. Yao must have spent a lot of effort to conduct detailed market research. Now think about his previous doubts about Yuanda Electric
, it’s really a bit ridiculous.”
After Miss Dong finished speaking, she picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Everyone looked even more embarrassed. If what Gree did was ridiculous, then their judgment and performance at the time were stupid.
Li Mei felt unhappy, smiled and changed the subject, saying, "How can we compare with Mr. Yao? Having said that, Mr. Yao expanded the distribution scope of Yuanda Electrical Appliances and set up more than ten or twenty pick-up points in various counties and cities. Dong
Sister, what do you think about this matter?"
I have Xiao Jiujiu in my heart.
If Yuanda Electric requires manufacturers to deliver goods to various pick-up points, everyone's transportation costs will increase, and it is not a small sum of money.
Now everyone only needs to go to Yuanda Electric's warehouse in the city, and once the handover is made, there will be nothing to do with the manufacturer later. How easy it is.
If the goods are delivered to the pick-up point, it means that each manufacturer needs to add a railway station to the transportation link of each pick-up point, which will cost a lot.
If Yuanda Electric really makes a request, will each manufacturer dare to refuse? Will they refuse?
At this time, Li Mei suddenly realized that the initiative of the manufacturers had been transferred to Yuanda Electrical Appliances at some point. You must know that two years ago, dealers required manufacturers to provide goods.
Yuanda Electrical Appliances controls the sales terminal...
Didn't the manufacturers just let Yuanda Electric be rounded and squashed? Li Mei almost broke out in a cold sweat when she thought of the consequences.
Ms. Dong didn't know if she had thought about this. She shook her head slightly and said, "I don't have any opinion. No matter what the specific practices of Yuanda Electric are, it should not pass on the distribution costs to the manufacturers. Mr. Yao has promised
.but……"
When the conversation changed, everyone's worries rose again and they stared at Miss Dong.
Miss Dong put down her tea cup, smiled and said, "But we at Gree are willing to share part of the distribution costs for Yuanda Electric. Let's work together to win-win and make money together. If anything happens, we will shoulder it together. Besides, the current investment may not bear fruit soon."
"Gree is rich and powerful, but our reputation is inferior to that of a small factory." Rong Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Gree has a lot of money. It can be said that among these manufacturers, Gree is the weakest and the most daring to fight. The collective only has a little bit of property. If you lose, you won't feel bad, but you will win and achieve great development.
"There are more than ten or twenty pick-up points, if you want me to look at them, just open a branch. After all, the branch is a fixed asset." Fang Dezhong shook his head and said, "We are only responsible for free delivery to the Yuanda Electric Warehouse in the city. Of course we can also
It can be delivered to various pick-up points, but Yuanda Electric is responsible for the shipping fee, which is reasonable, don’t you think?"
Compared with Jiang Baoguo, Fang Dezhong obviously lacks foresight. This old man, who has also worked in the home appliance industry for 20 years, values short-term profits.
But he didn't want to be the one who stood out, so he began to seek allies, and together they proposed a shipping fee plan to Yuanda Electric.
However, what surprised Fang Dezhong was that not only did no one respond, but everyone even seemed to not hear it and just ignored it and moved on to the next topic.
This makes Fang Dezhong extremely embarrassed...
Opening a branch is a matter for Yuanda Electric. Naturally, there is no reason to lower the manufacturer's price, and there is no reason to ask the manufacturer to extend the transportation distance. However, if it is just a pick-up point, it belongs to the Nangang flagship store. According to the terms of the contract, Yuanda Electric has the right to require the manufacturer to
The goods are sent to the pick-up point.
This is exactly what Fang Dezhong thought of.
"It's not a problem for Yuanda Electric to bear some costs." Rong Hao said with a wry smile, "The problem is that our Rongsheng sales volume is really not as good as yours. Our refrigerators can't be sold at all, but the sales volume of small household appliances can still be seen. The problem is
The profit margin is thin..."
Jiang Baoguo smiled and said, "Mr. Rong, you are too modest. Apart from other things, you have almost taken care of the electric fans. You also have the advantage of position. I heard that you are planning to set up a factory in Nangang for production."
"If you don't believe the rumors, don't spread them, Mr. Jiang, we can't protect ourselves now, how can we get the money to open a branch factory." Rong Hao shook his head and said.
Li Mei said, "Rong Hao, your Rongsheng Electrical Appliances performed very well today. Don't worry too much. Mr. Yao will come over soon and you will know the specific figures."
Everyone knows that the total sales volume of Yuanda Electric today reached a terrifying over 5,000 units, and they left the store more than two hours before closing. It is estimated that exceeding 6,000 units is not a big problem.
Sell 6,000 home appliances a day!
Even if it was all electric fans, it would still be a historical record!
Because of this, Rong Hao feels even more nervous. If Rongsheng Electrical Appliances performs poorly, it will affect the supplier rating at the end of the year. After being downgraded, he will be faced with withdrawing from the catalog and wants to become a supplier of Yuanda Electrical Appliances.
Shang, everything has to start from scratch!
In fact, not only him, but also other people have worries in their hearts to a greater or lesser extent.
Jiang Baoguo suddenly thought of something and said, "I heard that several factories are in contact with Yuanda Electric. Yuanda Electric is likely to increase its supplier list after the Spring Festival."
When he said this, everyone felt heavier. With more suppliers, competition would become more intense. This means that Yuanda Electric's supplier catalog update system will no longer be a piece of paper, and there will be a bloody fight between the major manufacturers.
, Yuanda Electric only takes the final winning part...
