Chapter 493 Nine sheep
At the small round table in the hall, Wang Xuming seemed a little nervous. Facing Zhang Tao, he was shorter unconsciously.
"Mr. Zhang, a business manager from our company last time, visited Sanlian Shopping Mall."
If you want others, Wang Xuming's voice was low: "We really have 120,000 expectations and want to cooperate with Sanlian Home Appliances."
Zhang Tao asked with a smile: "Xiao Wang, do you want your products to enter Sanlian Store?"
Wang Xuming quickly said: "Yes, we have been working hard for this to further strengthen product quality and beautify the outer packaging to meet the requirements of Sanlian."
Zhang Tao did not answer the conversation, but asked: "I remember your company is a small appliance company. Which type of product is used for?" This person just had an impression, but he couldn't remember it clearly: "Which company are you from?"
Wang Xuming was not unhappy about being ignored, but said: "The company is the main soy milk maker, currently called Jiuyang. By the way, our company is also preparing to enter the induction cooker industry this year."
"Your company is not well-known enough." Zhang Tao shook his head directly: "Soymilk maker? What kind of market is this thing?"
This was a disguised rejection. Wang Xuming tried his best to keep his face unchanged: "Mr. Zhang, there is a market for soy milk makers. Otherwise, let's try it first?"
Zhang Tao did not say anything directly to refuse: "You can bring out a plan first and send it to Sanlian's business department."
Wang Xuming also wanted to fight for: "One month, Mr. Zhang, give us a month..."
Zhang Tao looked at the following table and stood up and said, "Xiao Wang, I'm sorry, I have something to do here, so let's go first."
Wang Xuming had no choice but to watch Zhang Tao leave.
From developing the first electric soybean milk machine in the country in 1994, to now it has developed to a slight scale, it is not easy for Wang Xuming to go further. Entering a home appliance hypermarket is a key step. Although he got a gold medal in the province last year, it did not help much in the face of the general trend of the market, and it is difficult to enter a chain hypermarket.
I have looked for Guangmei Electric Appliances, but because I have no reliability relationship and have never dealt with Guangmei Electric Appliances before. Guangmei Electric Appliances is not very interested in a local small home appliance company.
There are too many similar small home appliance companies across the country, especially in the south, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are blooming everywhere.
Guangmei trusts southern brands more.
The name and patent of the first electric soymilk machine are useless.
Wang Xuming has had a deep experience in the past two years. When patents are said to be useful, they are really useless. When they are said to be useless, they are really useless.
On several occasions, Jiuyang’s new product just came out and the patent was applied for, and imitations were soon found on the market.
When he got used to it, he became numb. While continuing to develop new technologies, Wang Xuming gradually understood that channels are king and sales channels are the key.
Home appliance chain stores, places that specialize in selling branded home appliances, bring consumers not only services, but also trust.
Zhang Tao left, Wang Xuming stood up and saw Lu Dong.
The two are ten years apart and can also be regarded as starting from scratch, but before he goes to sea, he is a technical secondary school teacher, while Lu Dong is just a high school graduate.
"Mr. Lv." Wang Xuming took the initiative to say hello.
How could the former Quannan native have never heard of Jiuyang’s name? Lu Dong said: “Brother Wang, we are almost the same age as we are all friends of Brother Mu. Just call me Lu Dong.”
When we were having lunch in the morning, Wang Xuming had a deal with Lu Dong, and knew that this person was easy-going and knew the worldly style.
Wang Xuming smiled and said, "Brother Lu, sit here."
Lu Dong pulled open the chair, sat opposite Wang Xuming, pointed to the direction Zhang Tao left, and casually asked for a reason: "Just seeing Mr. Zhang, who just saw Sanlian, is Brother Wang interested in investing in Sanlian's real estate company?"
Wang Xuming didn't know much about Lu Dong, but he knew the three major chain brands of Lu's Catering. When he heard Lu Dong mention Sanlian, he suddenly remembered something. It seemed that in many shopping malls in Quannan, Lu's Catering stores were next to Ginza Mall and Guangmei Electric.
If one place is a coincidence, two places are also a coincidence, those three and four places are a coincidence?
Thinking of this, Wang Xuming said directly: "I don't want to invest in Sanlian Real Estate. My business is not mixed with the real estate pot."
Thinking of the first time they met today, they specifically mentioned Mu Kun: "My company, Mu Kun also said when introducing it in the morning that the small kitchen appliances are mainly used to produce electric soy milk machines. Last year, I won a gold medal in the province..."
Speaking of this, he realized that this was not the person in charge of the docking store. He smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang from Sanlian, I just wanted to talk about Jiuyang's soy milk maker entering Sanlian's sales. Unfortunately, Sanlian's family is big and has a big business, and he looks down on local small businesses like Jiuyang, so he directly refused."
Lu Dong asked tentatively: "There is no Sanlian home appliances, Quannan and Guangmei Electric Appliances."
"Try it." Wang Xuming smiled helplessly: "The contact between Jiuyang and Guangmei Electric Appliances has not been smooth for several times. They trust the small appliance brands in the south more..."
While the two were talking, Mu Kun came over and heard Wang Xuming's second half of the words, pulled over a chair, sat next to Lu Dong, and said with a smile: "This little thing is not difficult."
He has known Wang Xuming for seven or eight years and has always had a good relationship. He has invested in Jiuyang Company two years ago, but he does not participate in specific management and management at all, and does not even care much. When he heard Wang Xuming talk about this, he took advantage of the situation and said, "Lu Dong, you have no idea about your relationship with Mei. Please recommend Brother Wang."
Mu Kun knew that Lu Dong and Wang Xuming had just met, so he simply said, "I won't hide it from you. I have some investment in Jiuyang."
Lu Dong and Mu Kun are old, and the recommendation is not to ask Guangmei to accept Jiuyang entering the market, just act as an intermediary. He immediately said, "Okay, I'll call Mr. Fan later to see when Mr. Fan has time, let's have a meal together."
Wang Xuming was a little excited: "Mr. Lv..."
Lu Dong raised his hand slightly and said, "Brother Wang, I can only recommend it."
Wang Xuming understood that when he was a teacher, he replied in a literary way: "I am so grateful!"
Lu Dong took out his cell phone and called Fan Yunming. Fan Yunming was not in Quannan and went on a business trip. He told Lu Dong to ask someone to go directly to Guangmei's branch in Quannan and find the corresponding person in charge.
This is also a solution.
Lu Dong wrote down the contact information and handed it to Wang Xuming. Wang Xuming was not in a hurry, and he was afraid that there would be a change, so he immediately said goodbye and returned to the company to arrange corresponding matters.
Before leaving, Wang Xuming exchanged contact information with President Lu: "Mr. Lu, I will visit the university town again, so don't worry."
Lu Dong smiled and said, "How could it be?"
After Wang Xuming left, Mu Kun said, "Brother Wang has this temperament and only has work in his eyes."
Lu Dong said: "It is not easy to start a business and succeed."
Mu Kun laughed: "Compared with you and Brother Wang, I, the rich second generation, are much more relaxed."
Lu Dong turned the topic to Wang Xuming and asked, "Brother Mu, how is the development of the Jiuyang you invested in?"
"Average, I can only say it's okay." Mu Kun thought for a while and said, "In recent years, Brother Wang has paid more attention to product quality and technical research and development. He has not done well in the market. From the establishment of Jiuyang Small Home Appliances in 1994 to the present, the scale output value is not even comparable to that of your catering company. I don't know when the money I invested will get enough rewards."
He added: "If it weren't for Brother Wang's sake, I wouldn't have invested in Jiuyang Xiaojia Appliances in 1998."
From these words, Lu Dong got a lot of useful information and simply asked directly: "Brother Mu, will Jiuyang still raise funds later?"
Mu Kun understood what Lu Dong meant as soon as he heard it and said, "We must raise funds, just Jiuyang's R&D cost. I expect to raise funds to expand shares in the first half of this year. I remember that last time I went to the shareholders' meeting, Brother Wang planned to invest in the construction of a new factory. All of these require money. If you don't raise funds, where can Jiuyang find so much money? With their performance and development speed in the past two years, bank loans are not easy to borrow."
He asked Lu Dong: "Why, are you very interested in Jiuyang?"
"I am a catering company, and kitchen appliances are the key." Lu Dong said the truth: "Many foreign brands are always choking when used. Not to mention the high cost, it is not convenient to repair later. If there are excellent domestic products, the cost will definitely be reduced."
Mu Kun nodded: "That's the same problem."
Lu Dong pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Mu, Jiuyang refinancing and expanding shares, notify me that I still have some spare funds."
"Okay." Mu Kun said: "Compared to outsiders, we who know the bottom line can use the investment more with confidence."
Even if this matter is finalized, Lu Dong and Mu Kun will discuss it for a while and confirm that Jiuyang will be the first to notify Lu Dong when he is looking for an investment again.
Mu Kun is originally a not-small shareholder of Jiuyang, and it is very convenient to do it.
The funds that Lu Dong received from the dividends were useless. He originally discussed going to Mo Na to buy a house with Song Na, but it was good to withdraw some of them and make investments.
Those things that are far away in the sky are unrealistic, but Jiuyang is in Quannan. To put it simply, it is under Lu Dong's nose.
Quannan is Lu Dong's base camp, so there is no need to worry about people playing tricks with him.
Large companies in other places really want to play capital games with others. Those who are not strong enough will probably only be ravaged.
Just like a small business owner from another place went to Pingcheng to invest in Weiqiao Group. When the money entered there, Wei Ping and his son couldn't help but rub it.
But in Quannan, facing Jiuyang, who is still a real small appliance factory, Lu Dong doesn't have to worry about these things at all.
Having said that, if you invest in Jiuyang, the value preservation and return rate should not be worse than buying a real estate, right?
Lu Dong didn't know whether Jiuyang home appliances were listed or what the market value was. He had never played stocks at all, nor did he care about the stock market. He was just an ordinary store owner who was busy with life. However, at that time, when he opened a store, he often dealed with soy milk machines and cooking machines. Jiuyang undoubtedly became the first in China in these two types.
