Chapter 190 The Sound of Expansion
Expansion of factory.
If the sales are so hot, it must be a good product. If there is no goods to sell, then the factory will be expanded.
When the leaders of the Department of Industry saw the booming sales in the two joint venture factories, they immediately thought that there is no shortage of people in Black Province and they should expand the scale of production and produce more things for sale.
Since sanitary napkins and electric fans have become popular, there have been more calls for expansion of electric fan factories and sanitary napkin factories.
The sales of Longjiang brand electric fans have now reached an extreme level, and merchants who place orders have already scheduled their orders until the spring of 1985.
This is still the situation where Longjiang brand electric fans are limited to various provinces and cities. If there is no limit, orders may be scheduled to three or four years later.
The warehouse of Longjiang Electric Fan Factory is clean, and there is not a single finished fan. As long as it is produced and assembled here and passes the inspection, it will be directly loaded onto the truck and taken away.
Although Wang Chunlei began to contact motor manufacturers and speed up the production of fan blades after talking to Li Zhongxin, the difference between demand and supply was too big.
It is for this reason that calls for factory expansion are getting louder and louder.
The situation at the sanitary napkin factory is similar to that at the electric fan factory. Except that there were no orders in the first few days after the advertisement was put out, the phone calls inside the factory were flooded with orders. Two people were assigned to the factory.
Even if we take turns on duty, we can't answer all the calls.
Businessmen from all over the country gathered at the factory, eagerly waiting for the goods to be shipped from the factory.
The nearly 10 million packs of sanitary napkins produced by working overtime were sold out at this time. The sanitary napkins on the production line were shipped to all parts of the country as soon as they came off the production line.
The wages of workers in the joint venture are high. In addition, the efficiency of the two factories is good, and the bonuses are relatively much higher than those of ordinary enterprises. Naturally, some people have proposed to expand the scale of production, whether it is an electric fan factory or a sanitary napkin factory.
, should all be expanded.
The report from the Department of Industry was submitted to the province, because Chen Xingran was responsible for the bidding and introduction of these two joint venture factories, and the expansion matter was quickly placed on his desk.
Chen Xingran was very satisfied with the situation of the joint venture factory. After all, the two factories were successful at this time, not only driving the economy of the Black Province, but also playing a leading role in foreign and domestic capital.
As for the expansion of the factory, Chen Xingran cannot make the final decision. After all, the key production technology is not in his hands. If he wants to expand the factory, he must communicate with Mitsui Land.
Chen Xingran handed over the matter of expanding the factory and increasing the scale of investment to Cao Rui, and asked Cao Rui to contact Mitsui Masako, the manager of Mitsui Real Estate, to hear what Mitsui Masako would say.
The two factories are joint ventures, and it is useless to just put the heat on the Heilongjiang province. Even though the Heilongjiang province holds 51% of the shares, it has absolute control. However, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.
Whether it is an electric fan factory or a sanitary napkin factory, if you want to expand your production scale, you must rely on Mitsui Land.
The electric fan injection molds used by the electric fan factory are all brought back from Japan. The factory here not only does not have the drawings, but also does not have the technology to make such molds. The biggest factor in expanding the factory is to expand production.
Without a mold, even if it is agreed with the motor factory or other outsourcing units, it will be useless.
Not to mention the sanitary napkin factory. In addition to the raw materials for the production of sanitary napkins, which are handled by Heilongjiang Province, the entire production line, as well as some other production and maintenance personnel, are all sent by Mitsui Land.
There is no production line and no personnel to operate such a production line. How can we expand the factory? Those brainless guys in the Industrial Department seem to think that expanding the factory is just a matter of a word from the leader. They look at the problem too simply. Here in the Black Province
If you want to expand the factory, you must reach an agreement with Mitsui Land, and you also need to conduct very difficult negotiations with them.
In the past, except for the land and workers, almost everything was in charge of Mitsui Land. Something happened to Zhang Ming, the director of the sanitary napkin factory, and the province has not yet explained it to Mitsui Land!
Chen Xingran and Cao Rui both looked down upon Zhang Ming, that fat and white guy, and hated him to death. If it weren't for this idiot, they wouldn't be so passive.
The leader of the Department of Industry handed over such an important position to this idiot. Not only did this idiot not understand anything, he even dug a huge hole worth more than 100,000 yuan in the sanitary napkin factory, which was sent by the Japanese.
The financial supervisory personnel have been asking for an explanation from the Department of Industry!
Although that part of the money was not embezzled by Zhang Ming personally, it was missing due to his incompetence. Most of the money went into the pockets of the people below. For this reason, all kinds of people did not have an advantage.
In the Black Province, there is even less confidence to propose factory expansion.
But! No matter how difficult the task is, it must be carried out, and no matter how difficult the negotiation is, it must be negotiated. After Cao Rui followed the task given to him by Chen Xingran, he immediately found the best Japanese translator in the Black Provincial Government to call Mitsui Real Estate
Got the call.
After some communication and explanation, Cao Rui began to wait for a reply from Mitsui Real Estate in Japan.
Sanitary napkins and electric fans are selling well all over China, and orders have been placed for a year. This is definitely a very happy thing for Masako Mitsui.
Originally, Masako Mitsui was very optimistic about electric fans and sanitary napkins, but she really didn't expect that given the purchasing power of mainland China at this time, such an effect would be achieved.
Expanding the factory is of course a good thing. It is nothing more than purchasing some sanitary napkin production lines from Mitsui Land and building some more high-quality fan blade injection molds. These are not too difficult things.
Although Mitsui Masako could directly make the decision at this time, after thinking about it, Mitsui Masako still called the Heilongjiang Province Office in Beijing where Li Zhongxin lived.
First, Mitsui Masako wants to talk to Li Zhongxin about the factory expansion proposed by the Black Provincial Government. In terms of factory expansion, Mitsui Land has a great advantage. Is it necessary to expand the factory when the Black Province is anxious to expand the factory?
There should be more benefits.
Secondly! Masako Mitsui wants to confirm the time for Li Zhongxin to arrive in Tokyo, Japan, so that she can pick him up personally. For Masako Mitsui, Li Zhongxin is already her most important partner. Since she and Li Zhongxin started investing
Until now, there is nothing that is not profitable.
After Li Zhongxin received the call from Masako Mitsui, he began to make plans in his mind.
The big sales of sanitary napkins are different from the big sales of electric fans. The monthly production output of electric fans is restricted by the motor and fan blades. Where is the quantity produced every month?
Even if the electric fan factory continues to expand its scale, the possibility of rapid expansion is not huge.
The Heilongjiang Province mentioned that they would continue to expand the scale of the factory. Li Zhongxin did not have too many ideas. If he wanted to expand, a small expansion would be enough.
Li Zhongxin knew well that the price of the electric fan was seventy-nine yuan, and there was not much profit. Even if it continued to expand the scale, it would not be of much value.
If Longjiang brand electric fans are available here in Heilongjiang Province, other provinces or home appliance manufacturers that have been preparing to enter the fan industry will immediately carry out innovations, and companies will soon follow suit.
Not to mention that the electrical appliance industry is being eliminated very quickly. Besides, Li Zhongxin really never thought of expanding the electric fan factory. Compared with the production and sales of sanitary napkins, the profits and sustainability of the electric fan factory are simply weak.
If you have some spare time, it would be better to do something than build an electric fan factory.
An electric fan of better quality, such as the current Longjiang brand electric fan, can be used by each household for ten years or even twenty years.
As for consumables such as sanitary napkins, women must consume at least one pack every month. Comparing the two, Li Zhongxin naturally chose to increase investment in the sanitary napkin production line and gave up the substantial expansion of the electric fan factory.
Li Zhongxin shared his thoughts. After all, Mitsui Real Estate was jointly invested by him and Mitsui Masako. After the idea was expressed, if Mitsui Masako wanted to discuss cooperation with Heilongjiang Province, he would not go.
Worried.
