Chapter 93 [Orders are full] (for completeness)(2/2)
Lin Zhichao deliberately drove his newly purchased Ford 1949 car to Kowloon via car ferry. After all, in Kowloon, he only had a second-hand car, which was not of high quality.
At Kai Tak Airport, Xue Junshan held up a wooden sign with the words "Welcome Mr. Powell to Hong Kong" written in English. It immediately became the most beautiful scenery at Kai Tak Airport.
Lin Zhichao ignored the strange looks from others. He even met an acquaintance. Although he was ridiculed, he also gained admiration.
When a foreigner walked towards them alone, Lin Zhichao greeted him immediately.
"Are you Mr. Powell?"
"Yes, then you must be Mr. Lin from Cheung Kong Holdings?"
Lin Zhichao quickly extended his right hand and said: "Yes, welcome Mr. Powell to Hong Kong."
Powell then said with a smile: "Your welcome is very sincere. Thank you very much for making such arrangements!"
To be honest, in Lin Zhichao's view, merchants who can come to Hong Kong for inspection in person have a very high chance of cooperation. Several salesmen sent out this time have returned to Hong Kong, but there are only a few waves of people coming to inspect, so we must seize every opportunity.
Poke guest.
In this way, Cheung Kong's machines will not be idle this year, and orders will be filled.
Lin Zhichao then said: "We have arranged the best hotel in Hong Kong, so should we stay in the hotel and rest first, or should we visit the factory first?"
Powell said without hesitation: "Of course we will visit the factory!"
He is indeed an impatient Yingjiang person!
Fortunately, Cheung Kong Holdings can be inspected at any time!
Then, sitting in a brand new Ford 1949 car, everyone drove towards Tsuen Wan.
On the way, Lin Zhichao and Powell had a very lively chat. Lin Zhichao shared some of his entrepreneurial process, which attracted praise from Powell.
This is a person's business card!
Even without visiting the factory, you have already gained a reputation.
After arriving at Cheung Kong Industrial Co., Ltd., we visited again.
"Mr. Lin, I already knew something about Yangtze River Industries before I left. I knew from the brochure that you have a large factory and the most advanced equipment. After today's on-site inspection, I didn't expect that your factory has a huge development (including under construction).
(two factories), so modern, and the production management is also very good. I don’t want to compliment you, but your factory does have unlimited prospects and is more competitive than zipper factories in Europe and the United States.”
Lin Zhichao did not expect to receive such praise, and immediately said humbly: "The zipper industry is only in its early stages, and there is still a lot of development potential in the future, so I have been working hard to make progress. Thank you for your praise of our factory, I can assure you that our
Product quality and delivery time.”
Powell said cheerfully: "Okay, I want to sign a contract with you today. I have read your quotation, and now I feel that it is high quality and low price, so there is no need to talk more. And my annual demand is more than 800,000 meters, which is exactly what I need."
You will supply from March.”
In this era, the only materials for zippers are aluminum alloy and copper, and plastic materials have not yet been born.
But zippers are also divided into models, varieties, functions, etc. Cheung Kong's varieties are not complete, because many of them require new machines.
However, if Powell can come, it is obviously Yangtze River Industries that meets his needs.
At this time, Lin Zhichao was not in a hurry and said: "I heard from your overseas phone call that you still need to go to Japan to inspect zippers. I happen to be fluent in Japanese and I am willing to accompany you to inspect."
This young man is not simple, Powell sighed inwardly. He speaks English fluently and can also speak Japanese.
Powell said with a smile: "There's no need to go now! And as far as I know, the Japanese zipper machine is produced by our Yingjiang, and its performance is still a little worse than your machine. Coupled with your price advantage, it must be
It’s cheaper than Japan, so there’s no need to check it out. I’m just curious about your Chinese temples, so I want to spend two days in Hong Kong before going back to Yingjiang!”
Lin Zhichao immediately said: "Then I will accompany you!"
Not to mention two days, he has to find time even for a week. After all, being able to sell zipper products to Eagle Sauce is the best proof of his strength.
In this way, the zipper sales in Europe and the United States secured approximately 2.3 million meters of orders, quickly increasing the orders of Yangtze River Industry to a full level.
In fact, it does not rely on sales, but on quality and price. Just like the plastic flowers in Hong Kong in the previous life, it has a price advantage and is comparable to Europe and the United States in terms of quality. Naturally, it soon occupied 80% of the global market.
Although Cheung Kong's zipper products cannot be that exaggerated, Lin Zhichao believes that within two years, Cheung Kong should be able to rank among the top five zipper manufacturers in the world.
