Chapter 83 Boss You Are Here!(1/2)
"Young Master Huan."
Kaish Harris immediately caught up with Yang Huan.
The two were walking in the old factory area of Shengxi Yacht. In the nearest factory, thirty or forty workers were rubbing sandpaper on a newly formed hull, obviously they had to polish it and then paint it.
"Kash, what do you think?"
Yang Huan is very interested in owning a yacht and is more interested in acquiring a yacht company.
I wonder, with your own yacht company, how proud is to build the most awesome yacht?
Don't Abramovich say he has an Eclipse?
I will build a yacht that is even more awesome than his Sun Eclipse. Let's see if he is proud of it!
In the future, if the British royal family wants to go out to sea, they have to come to borrow it.
Moreover, Yang Huan is indeed optimistic about the future development prospects of the yacht industry, especially in countries such as China, India and Brazil.
If there is no future, I believe that someone as conservative as my dad can't set up a yacht club.
There are also people like Sanya, where so many people travel to Sanya every year, and they also hold a sea and sky feast.
Whenever Yang Huan mentioned the sea and sky feast, he was full of anticipation.
I was a poor man in my previous life, so I could only read it from the newspaper and spend my time enjoying it. With this condition in this life, I must see and see what the sea and sky feast is. It would be great if I could support a female star.
Kaish Harris didn't know so many messy thoughts in Yang Huan's mind. He is a very professional and conscientious investment consultant. After listening to Yang Huan's inquiry, he filtered it in his mind.
"It's still very promising." Kesh Harris concluded.
"The reason why Shengxi Yachts are not well operated and have low profits is related to the company's operations. They basically rely on old workers. Some have worked here for 20 or 30 years, and some older generations have retired and their sons continue to take over. Although doing this can ensure the consistent and authentic craftsmanship, it also increases the operating costs of the company."
Yang Huan knew in his heart that this was mainly because the salary of British workers was too high and the benefits were too good.
I believe that if the same number of workers is transferred to China, not only will labor costs decline significantly, but raw material costs will also be reduced, and even the time required to build a yacht will be greatly reduced.
After all, today's manufacturing kingdom is China!
"One more thing is that the business model of Shengxi Yacht is too traditional and too persistent in the company's brand awareness and professional achievements, which leads them to some extent to ignore the personalized requirements of customers."
Yang Huan agreed with this.
Think about it, if a person drives a luxury yacht of the level of Shengxi to go to sea and finds that his yacht is exactly the same as others, what kind of mood would it be? It's like eating a fly!
The manufacturer's professionalism and brand demands and the customer's personalized requirements are actually in conflict, but there is not a better and more effective way to solve it. It only depends on whether you want it or not.
"In the end, I think that one of the important reasons why Shengxi Yachts is not profitable is that their costs are too high."
"What does it mean?" Yang Huan was a little confused about this.
"Workers' wage costs are one thing, but more importantly, Shengxi Yacht uses the best materials to build yachts, but when they negotiate with interior suppliers like Hermes, they negotiated prices on a yacht, and had no bargaining power at all."
"Why?" Yang Huan frowned. So, there was really something wrong.
"They lack confidence. Their order volume is not large enough and they don't have enough funds, so they can only adopt this small workshop-style model and place a material order if they take an order for a yacht."
When Yang Huan heard this, he immediately understood.
If we really follow the practice of the Yang Group in China, if we want to build yacht clubs and docks in the next few years, each club will need to be equipped with at least ten luxury yachts for customers to experience or hold small social events.
The price of this level of business luxury yacht is around 10 million pounds, and ten ships are only 100 million pounds.
The annual cost of use and maintenance of each yacht is 10%, or 10 million pounds.
In other words, if you really buy the Shengxi Yacht, Yang Huan only needs to get the order from the Yang Group and then use this order to negotiate with each link, which will undoubtedly get a greater price discount.
Not to mention, Shengxi Yacht itself does not lack orders, all it lacks is funds.
Just like Apple and Samsung, why do every supplier in the entire mobile phone manufacturing channel have to listen to them and be controlled by them? It is because they have enough orders and have enough bargaining power.
If you don’t have so many orders, you will talk to others and you will be able to take care of you.
So, after all, this world is quite realistic.
After Yang Huan figured out this level, he immediately felt that there was something to do in this business.
At the very least, if my son is selling yachts, wouldn’t I dare not buy it with my son?
It's really against him!
"Kash, how much do you think Shengxi is worth now?" Yang Huan asked.
Kesh Harris thought for a while, "It's hard to say that from the perspective of brand value, it's unique in the world and the top luxury yacht manufacturer. This can even be said to be priceless, but from the perspective of the capital market, as long as it is controlled within 200 million pounds, it's very cost-effective."
Yang Huan nodded, feeling confident.
The two of them were whispering in front of them, and behind them, Bryce White and McEntire were also whispering.
The two old men whispered to each other, and it seemed that there was a lot of verbal conflict.
Yang Huan was not interested in the discussion between them at all. It was the same for him whether to buy or not.
Besides, if you don’t buy Shengxi yacht, you can’t buy anything else?
Now the luxury goods industry in Europe is in bleakness. Are you afraid that you can’t buy good things if you have money?
I looked around at the yacht factory and felt a little boring.
"Kash, the sun is so dazzling, go back." Yang Huan walked around and felt a little bored.
The sun is dazzling?
Bryce White and McCentiane both wanted to cry.
It's cloudy, young master, where does the dazzling sunshine come from?
Or is it that we are not sharing the same sky?
"Okay." Kesh Harris didn't say anything, so he called and asked the driver to drive the Rolls-Royce over.
When Bryce White saw Rolls-Royce turning around in the distance, he knew that he could no longer continue to grind.
"Mr. Yang Huan, I can take you to the design workshop to see where your yacht mold is being made."
"What's the best thing about the mold?" Yang Huan smiled and shook her head, "Forget it, I have something to do in Southampton, so I'll leave first."
"No, Mr. Yang Huan!" Bryce White was a little anxious, "That acquisition matter..."
"Acquisition?" Yang Huan was stunned, "I am here to see the yacht today, not to discuss the acquisition."
"Besides, you offer so high that I can't afford it, right?" After saying that, he laughed.
He thought it through this clearly. It turns out that the founder of Shengxi Yacht is in a hurry to sell it.
Since you are anxious, things will be much easier.
You must sell it, but I don't have to buy it.
"Two million pounds. If Mr. Yang Huan is interested, I will sell it for 200 million pounds. I will be responsible for persuading other shareholders."
It can be seen that Bryce White is still very prestigious in this company.
"Two million, I'll think about it again."
As he said that, Yang Huan left Bryce White with his mobile phone number so that he could call himself at any time.
But despite their reluctance, he took a Rolls-Royce with Kesh Harris and left the Shengxi Yacht Company.
"He really wants to buy it." McEntire said very surely.
He was always a little older, but he still had a very accurate vision when asked.
He was really surprised by Yang Huan because he could see that Yang Huan had a temporary idea, but the price was not the same.
However, if you can make an acquisition of 200 million to 300 million pounds, it shows how rich this big Chinese funder is.
I'm afraid it's no less than the large oil-digging conglomerates in the Middle East.
…………
…………
From Poole to Southampton, Yang Huan never mentioned the Shengxi yacht along the way.
It was as if he had never thought about the whole thing from beginning to end, which made Kaish Harris unable to understand the idea of the 20-year-old Chinese young master.
It was not until the car arrived downstairs of the WeChat company headquarters at the Southampton Tourist Pier that Yang Huan said before getting off the bus.
"Kash, I want the most detailed information about the most recent luxury brands in Europe that have been in financial trouble, including Sant's Yacht and Aston Martin. Please prepare for me."
When Yang Huan does things, he always does not take action, and he will have big scenes when he takes action.
Kaish Harris was filled with surprise when he heard this. He thought it would be good to get a Shengxi family. Unexpectedly, Yang Huan was so ambitious, and he immediately promised, "Don't worry, Master Huan, I will help you get it done as soon as possible."
After saying that, the fat British boy returned to London happily.
In the small circle of the City of London, what information can't be obtained?
Yang Huan looked at the Rolls-Royce who couldn't wait to speed away, smiled, and took Long Wu into the headquarters of WeChat company.
"Boss, Boss, you're finally back!"
As soon as I entered the door, a man's voice came from behind me with great surprise.
