Chapter 739 Africa, we are here (1)

"Brother Yun, it's not that I didn't help you with this matter. After returning from Rongcheng last year, I contacted some people in charge of the state-owned mines with good relations. They were not very interested in this..." said Yun Fei Song Shihui can only smile bitterly because his order of one or two billion is not enough to stuff his teeth.

Yunfei has offended a lot of bigwigs. The equipment of those state-owned mines is already outdated and must be updated, but their responsible persons simply cannot be the masters. I heard that it was the people above who said hello and asked. Their various mining equipment can only be purchased from state-owned factories.

The so-called procurement in state-owned factories, as everyone knows, is to boycott the Hongqi Machinery Plant under Yun's Holdings.

In Hongqi Machinery Factory, mining equipment occupies a very large proportion.

For Hongqi Machinery to develop, it must obtain more business. If it does not have sufficient business support, it must require blood transfusion from the ninety one group. In fact, it is mainly from ninety one heavy industry.

"Aren't they interested? This is strange!" Yun Fei was stunned.

"You know, Minmetals is the largest manufacturer of mining equipment in China. They not only have their own mines, steel plants, but also matching machinery manufacturing plants..." Song Shihui said with a wry smile.

Minmetals is a giant, and most of the domestic mines belong to them.

"What about Minmetals? Does the Ministry of Mines still require these mines to use their equipment? This is a market economy, not the previous planned economy era"!Yun Fei said with a sneer.

People from the Ministry of Machinery Industry basically wear a pair of pants with the guys from the Mining Ministry. Hearing Song Shihui's words, he immediately realized that those guys were boycotting themselves.

"Those private mine owners also mean the same thing?"

Song Shihui nodded with a wry smile.

If he had not signed a contract with Hongqi Machinery Factory last year, it is estimated that Yunfei would not be able to get a penny of the contract.

In China, many businesses are not determined by the market. The country's will to power can be reflected in various places.Those bigwigs are probably because they cut prices in the machine tool industry last year, which embarrassed them, waiting for them here.

The major domestic machinery factories have basically a very good relationship with those steel mills, and many of the leaders of the Ministry of Machinery Industry and the Ministry of Mines came from these state-owned factories.

Now that Song Shihui explained everything, Yunfei didn’t need to go to the heads of the state-owned mining companies to discuss this issue. Instead, he went directly to the northeast. Even Song Shihui asked him to eat bear paws. Regardless.

"The current situation is like this. Our neighboring aerospace and mining machinery equipment factory can get a lot of business, but we can't get any orders..." The situation is very serious. If Hongqi Machinery Factory can't get new orders , Work has not yet fully resumed, and work will be suspended again in a few months.

Only the business of slow-moving wire cutting has only signed a sales contract of more than 100 sets, and there are only more than 100 million orders.

"The news is certain?" In China for so many years, Myron also knows that many things in China are not based on market rules.

Just like the opening of the tender for the Three Gorges Project last year, the production prices of some mechanical parts of Dongqi and Dongbei Turbine Plant in Chengdu were 30% higher than the foreign quotations. In the end, even foreign companies such as General Motors who obtained the qualification of general contractors , Still had to sign a contract with them at a price 10% higher than that of foreign countries.

"Yes, let’s not talk about the state-owned mining companies. The private mines in Jinxi and Inner Mongolia are reluctant to talk to us about equipment procurement. The price of Minmetals’ equipment is too high, which makes him prefer to use more manpower. Come and do this..." Yun Fei talked to many private mine owners when he was in Jinxi.

The above management department has issued a statement, if they still purchase equipment from Hongqi Machinery Factory, will they be put on shoes sooner or later?

"If this is the case, Hongqi Machinery will have to switch to another project. For such a large factory, in addition to engaging in construction machinery..." Jiang Jianxing still wants to engage in construction machinery very much. Sany Heavy Industry in Xiangnan has been developing very prosperously in recent years. Very hot.

Moreover, Hongqi Machinery Factory has the foundation in this respect. It was originally a large-scale machinery factory that produces various engineering equipment, including various excavators, bulldozers, and some hoisting machines, pump trucks, concrete tank trucks and so on for real estate needs. The technical level is average, and the production cost is too high.

This is the most fundamental reason for the serious losses of Hongqi Machinery Plant.

"In this case, our plans here have to be adjusted, and the business of construction vehicle production must continue..." Wu Zhongda now ignores Yunfei's strategy of focusing on development in one direction.

The most important thing now is to turn losses into profits first.

Yunfei eased the burden on the big bosses of the Ministry of Machinery Industry, but it increased the burden on the Jiuyi Group itself.

The relocation of the Jiuyi Material Factory to Guocheng will not generate profits within a quarter. Moreover, their equipment renewal and scale expansion require blood transfusions from Jiuyi Heavy Industries. Jiuyi Aviation made a rare turnaround last year, but the entire company only made profits. More than four hundred thousand...

Even if the annual cost of the logistics company's storage center is very low, so far, it is still in the investment period, and no profit has been generated.

"Indeed, the company's engineering vehicle business cannot be given up..." Jiang Jianxing also agreed with this view.

The main business of the Jiuyi Group is the manufacture and sales of CNC machine tools. You cannot always give blood transfusions to other companies, because there are too many industries that require blood transfusions of Jiuyi Heavy Industries, which severely restricts the development of Jiuyi Heavy Industries.

At present, both Jinling Heavy Industry and Jinling Foundry are still waiting for funds to update equipment and expand their plants.

"There is no problem with business recovery, but production can only be done under the premise of order, rather than looking for the market after production. In addition, mining machinery is still our main business! This is our strategic development direction." Yun Fei Dan said painfully.

"This needs the market. Now those guys from the Ministry of Mines are holding us back. If we go to them, they will definitely not admit it. Without a market, we..." Jiang Jianxing said depressed.

"I think we have to change our thinking. We have always focused on the domestic market, but for many things, the international market has the largest share!" Yun Fei looked at the three absolute cores seriously. Said.

"Internationally? Internationally, it is monopolized by European and American mining equipment. It is not easy for us to grab food from them in China..." Jiang Jianxing heard Yun Fei's words, the international market is indeed far It is much larger than the domestic market share.

If the Jiuyi Group wants to develop continuously, it is far from enough to rely on its domestic market share.

Yunfei has been focusing on the estimation market since 1995, and then began to make arrangements. In order to enter the international market, they even gave a large piece of fat to the Dutch. They knew very well.

"Not all places in the world are valued by international companies. What they value is those large mines, some small mines, they simply ignore it. This is our opportunity..." Yun Fei said with a smile.

China's development can only start from areas that European and American countries don't pay attention to.

"You mean Africa?" Jiang Jianxing's brows stretched out.

There are countless small mines in Africa, and those mine owners simply cannot afford to use the large mining equipment...

"Not only in Africa, but also in South America and Australia, there are many small mines. These are our opportunities!" Most of the industries of Chinese companies entering the international market use Africa as a springboard.

"Boss, I understand, I will start to organize the company's salesmen to expand business in Africa..." Wu Zhongda said happily.

"Although I don't like English personally, English is the international lingua franca. The salesmen we send out must understand technology and language. Just translating is not enough. There are a lot of college students in Hongqi Machinery Factory. To implement this matter immediately, it is required that English must be able to conduct proficient conversations, and the skills must be able to fool people..."

A good salesperson must be able to have a ruthless role that can sell the land of the moon and private life!

"What's the matter, wife? Who provokes you again?" Wu Fan came home from get off work, and saw his wife Fu Chunmei sitting in the living room watching TV with an unhappy face. She didn't cook any meals, and she couldn't help being a little big.

This menopausal woman can't afford it.Especially women who are laid off during menopause are even more unattractive.Fu Chunmei used to be a small leader of the logistics department of Hongqi Machinery Factory, because after Hongqi Machinery Factory was acquired by Jiuyi Group, the company made major layoffs, and nearly half of them were laid off...

The child goes to school and is not at home, no one helps him share the anger of the idle menopausal woman, these days...

"No one provokes me. If you don’t cook tonight, go outside and take a bite if you’re hungry..."

"My dear, didn't you go to the class reunion today? Are you upset with your classmates again?" Wu Fan sighed and prepared to cook by himself, except for the bowl of porridge left in the refrigerator in the morning. None, and there is nothing in the cupboard—Fu Chunmei didn't buy groceries.

Fu Chunmei is a secondary school student who graduated from the factory’s secondary school. She didn’t learn any technology. She didn’t have any background in Hongqi Machinery. She has been busy taking care of her children and the family. In the past two years, the elderly were sick and went to work. They also fished for three days and dried the net for two days, so it is only natural to be laid off.

"Don't mention it, aren't they just marrying some men who sell tea eggs? They have some stinky money, and they are actually awkward in front of me..." Fu Chunmei, a classmate of class 1, is not the most beautiful, but the man he was looking for But it is the most educated.

This used to make all the students envy and hate.

But now it's different. To measure a person, it is measured by how much money is earned.

In this era, it is generally accepted that those who do atomic bombs are not as rich as those who sell tea eggs.
