Zhang Zhonghua stood at Kai Tak Airport and looked at hundreds of Japanese engineers. These were the people he was going to take back to Japan to open a factory. The other engineers all stayed on Hong Kong Island to research and develop new technologies.
Like how to save more power without changing the wind speed, and how to reduce the noise when the fan is running.
This time Zhang Zhonghua spent a lot of money on returning to Japan, and a group of more than 100 people took the train to Japan.
"How long will it take for the Osaka factory to start production?"
Zhang Zhonghua asked.
"President, it is not difficult to customize motors. As for other things, it is even simpler. It is very easy to manufacture and can be put into production in a short time."
Zhang Zhonghua secretly cursed himself, there was no technical content at all in the fan blades, grille, plastic, etc. The steel pipe and base were even simpler. Just place an order and assemble it, but you had to find a way to produce the motor yourself.
"Then let's put it into production as soon as possible. Summer will be less than three months away."
"If the motors are left to Mitsubishi for OEM, there is no problem in producing tens of thousands of units a day. There are many OEM factories in Japan, which can fully meet all our needs."
Yoshioka Kazuo said quite proudly.
Japan produces countless types of motors in a year, and tens of thousands of motors are just a joke in Japan.
After several hours of flight, the plane finally arrived in Osaka, and Gong Qigao, who stayed behind in Japan, had also arrived at the airport to greet Zhang Zhonghua.
Japan is currently the real headquarters of CFC, with employees spread all over the country.
"Boss, welcome to Osaka. I have already arranged your hotel."
Gong Qigao said with a smile.
Yuhuang Electric has finally been officially established, and the group has another subsidiary company. His boss Gong Qigao knows this and never fights an unprepared battle. This company must be another cash cow. With the expansion of the group's business, as a group
Will the status of HR managers also rise?
"Manager Gong, I haven't seen you for a long time. He's been doing well lately."
Zhang Zhonghua said enthusiastically.
It is very hard for a company executive who stays in Asia. Fortunately, Shirley Hu is mainly responsible for the Japanese market, while Gong Qigao has to travel between Hong Kong and Japan.
"It's not bad. Now CFC restaurants have entered other parts of Japan, especially in Kyoto. They are developing very well. 30 branches have been opened and the rest are still under renovation."
"Yes, I hope that Japan will complete the plan as soon as possible, and then all of them will go to Europe and bloom all over Europe."
Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile that the plan for Japan will be almost completed by the end of this year. At present, earning Japanese yen is not as good as earning British pounds. Of course, in a few years, nothing will be as good as Japanese yen.
After everyone left the airport, the vehicle drove towards the hotel.
Looking at the various factories on both sides of the road, Zhang Zhonghua could not help but sigh that Japan's industry is too developed now.
"Boss, how many people are we going to recruit this time?"
Gong Qigao asked.
"I'm still not sure about this. Let Kazuo Yoshioka arrange it. Anyway, the skilled workers here will open the door very much. Have you selected the factory building?"
"We have identified three alternatives, all of which are in Yao City, and there are many motor factories here. If we build our own motor production factory, we can just buy one directly."
"Let's wait until the need arises. Of course it would be best to acquire it directly."
Mergers and acquisitions are the fastest shortcut to development. To build your own power plant, you need to recruit people, train employees, and find suppliers. If you make an acquisition, you can take over the workers and channels of the original factory.
After returning to the hotel and simply washing up, Zhang Zhonghua, accompanied by Gong Qigao, started walking around Osaka. As the second largest city in Japan, Osaka is also extremely prosperous and developed.
Osaka was officially established as a city in 1899 and was one of the earliest cities in Japan. When it was first established, Osaka City only included Nishi Ward, most of Chuo Ward, Kita Ward, and parts of Fukushima Ward, with an area of only 15.27 square meters.
square kilometers.
Since then, Osaka City has been expanded three times, in 1907, 1925, and 1955. The area has also been expanded to 223 square kilometers, and it has 24 districts under its jurisdiction. It is the city with the largest number of districts among the cities designated by decree.
Osaka is a popular center in the Kansai region of Japan, with an extremely rich variety of products, complete shopping facilities, and developed circulation. Osaka people usually divide Osaka into North City and South City. The main business districts in North City include Osaka Station, Umeda, Kitashinchi, and Kyobashi
, Sakuranomiya and other places. The main commercial areas of Nancheng include Shinsaibashi, Namba, Sennichimae, Kuromon Market, Tennoji, Toyobashi, Nangang Tempozan area and other prosperous shopping areas.
After staying in Osaka for two days, the factory has been purchased. Zhang Zhonghua left the establishment of the factory to Yoshioka Kazuo. The Japanese engineers who returned from Hong Kong also took a week off and went back to their respective homes to find their mothers.
.
After leaving the Big Bang, Zhang Zhonghua came to Kyoto. Accompanied by Hu Xueli, he inspected the CFC restaurants that were open in Kyoto. Looking at the various CFC restaurants in the bustling areas, Zhang Zhonghua was quite emotional. Zheng Juan and Hu Shirley, the best friends, have become members of the Jade Emperor Group.
The mainstay.
Zhang Zhonghua is thinking about buying a villa on Hong Kong Island for every company executive in the second half of the year. Even a so-called luxury house with a thousand feet will not cost much.
Moreover, Zhang Zhonghua was thinking about whether he could build his own community as a residence for the group's main personnel, which would solve the security problem and win over a wave of people's hearts, killing two birds with one stone.
"Boss, we have more than 100 CFC restaurants operating in Dongjin, and there are still 60 restaurants in the queue for renovation; there are also 32 restaurants open in Kyoto, and more than 40 restaurants are in the queue for renovation. It is expected to be in mid-June.
More than 70 branches have been opened in Kyoto; at the same time, it will go south to Nara, Osaka and Kobe; in September, it plans to select stores in Hiroshima and Nagasaki for renovation and opening; in October, Nagoya will enter the Hokkaido area.
It is expected that the development plan for the entire Japan will be completed by the end of the year, and it is estimated that there will be more than 1,000 stores across Japan."
After listening to Hu Xueli's introduction to Japan's store opening plan, Zhang Zhonghua was greatly surprised. The more than 1,000 stores were almost double what he had planned. In this case, CFC Japan Branch would owe Sumitomo Bank more than 100 million U.S. dollars, and he would be in good hands.
Super bad guy.
Nowadays, restaurants are so profitable that they don’t even need to go public to make money. But if you want to become a large international company, how can you not go public? But it will take two years, and now is not a good time to go public.
After two days of inspection in Kyoto, Zhang Zhonghua left Kyoto and arrived at Dongjin, the starting point of CFC restaurant in Japan. Starting from Ginza, he inspected the newly opened restaurants one by one. Most of the employees had never met the boss, which was not good. Zhang Zhonghua was like inspecting his own country and
Like the king of the people, his sense of accomplishment and vanity are greatly satisfied.
After inspecting various branches in Dongjin, Zhang Zhonghua flew back to Osaka City from Dongjin. Yuhuang Electric Co., Ltd. in Osaka was ready for operation. Isn't this work efficiency too fast? CFC Restaurant just finished inspecting Dongjin.
.
"President, the motor OEM orders for the table fans and floor fans we designed are given to Mitsubishi, while the small fan motors are outsourced to a nearby small motor factory.
We have also contacted the supplier of the packaging cartons for the fans. We have temporarily purchased a production line with related equipment. Currently, we have hired nearly 2,000 employees, all of whom are skilled workers. It only takes two days to familiarize themselves with production at full speed. At the same time, the employees are still there
We are constantly recruiting.”
Yoshioka Kazuo introduced it to Zhang Zhonghua who was sitting on a new office chair in the office.
"Well, let's go, take me to see you."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Zhonghua got up and walked towards the production workshop under the leadership of Yoshioka Kazuo.
"Several fans assembled here have been tested by engineers and there are no problems. Currently, only white and black fans are produced. Fans in other colors will be produced later."
Yoshioka Kazuo pointed to the fan assembled by workers next to him and said.
Zhang Zhonghua looked at the factory with an investment of nearly 10 million US dollars and asked Yoshioka Kazuo: "Is there no problem with the factory's production capacity?"
"No problem, at least 100,000 fans can be assembled every day. Although the recruitment of workers can increase the production capacity at any time. Our selling price needs to be determined now. The cost is similar to what I said before."
Kazuo Yoshioka said.
"What are the prices of electric fans currently on the market?"
Zhang Zhonghua asked Yoshioka Kazuo while playing with the fan.
"President, currently the table fan on the Japanese market is about 10 US dollars, but there is no reference price for floor fans and small fans.
The reference prices studied by our finance department are US$5 for a small fan, US$10 for a table fan, US$25 for a floor fan, and US$10 for a humidifier, which is a 20% discount on the ex-factory price.”
The experience of the Finance Department said.
The profit of the small fan is US$2.50, the profit of the table fan is US$5, the profit of the humidifier is US$6, and the profit of the floor fan is US$14, which is a very good profit.
"In this way, a small fan is US$4.9, a table fan is US$9.9, a floor fan is US$24.9, and a humidifier is US$9.9. You must know that the difference between US$10 and US$9.9 in the eyes of customers is more than 0.1 US dollars. Let's stock up here, summer is coming soon.
When we arrive, we need to stock up on enough goods."
"Yes, President!"
As the person in charge of the factory, Kazuo Yoshioka immediately bowed ninety degrees.
With the official operation of the Yuhuang Electric Factory, engineers under the factory continued to research new electrical technology. Zhang Zhonghua transferred US$10 million from other companies under the group, such as CFC Japan Branch, to the Yuhuang Electric account as a start-up for Yuhuang Electric.
Since then, Yuhuang Electric Co., Ltd. has officially been on the right track.
After Yuhuang Electric Co., Ltd. was on track, Zhang Zhonghua visited branches in other parts of Japan for two days before returning to Xiangjiang with Gong Qigao. At present, it is enough to have Hu Shirley in Japan. Gong Qigao, as the head of the group's human resources department,
It's better to stay at the headquarters.
"Ahua, has Yuhuang Electric been put into production in Japan?"
After returning from Japan, Zhang Zhonghua was immediately called to the villa next door for dinner. After briefly talking to Zhang Zhonghua, Lou Zhenhua asked him.
Lou Zhenhua felt that his eldest nephew was really busy. He went on a business trip to the UK for a month and then went to Japan a few days after returning to continue to expand his business.
"I would like to build the factory in Yuen Long, so that I don't have to go to Japan, but there is nothing on Hong Kong Island. Japan's industrial development and complete supporting facilities make it easier to build a factory, otherwise I wouldn't have to look far away."
Zhang Zhonghua said helplessly to Lou Zhenhua.
"Indeed, Japan's current industrial system is so complete that even the Chou Kingdom cannot compare with Japan."
Father Lou also praised.
Ever since Chou Country started playing with finance, it has moved its domestic industries overseas. As Chou Country's own son, Japan has naturally received the most benefits. In addition, Japan is one of the front lines of Chou Country's fight against Mao Xiong. It is a great force for Japan.
Support.
"By the way, Uncle Lou, house prices here on Hong Kong Island have started to rise. Do you have any ideas?"
Hong Kong Island has finally recovered and has begun another process of soaring housing prices.
"Then let's, should we buy some factories and land at bargain prices?"
Lou Zhenhua naturally knew what Zhang Zhonghua said.
"I have already transferred funds from Japan, and I expect to prepare to gradually transfer US$40 million from Japan to Hong Kong Island."
Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll transfer 50 million US dollars from Japan and also buy some land in Hong Kong Island and Kowloon."
Zhang Zhonghua glanced at Lou Zhenhua in shock, "Holy shit, Uncle Lou, how much did you make from selling furniture this year? These fifty million US dollars were transferred from Japan, not from the Lou Group, which means these are all furniture."
factory profits.
"Uncle Lou, how much money have you made?"
Zhang Zhonghua asked in surprise.
"Not much. The profit of the seats I bought in Japan was only 5 US dollars each, so I guess 16 million were sold. The profit of each seat in the United States was 8 US dollars, and now only tens of thousands of them have been sold. Your share will be shared with me over time.
I will let the finance department give it to you."
Lou Zhenhua said rather modestly.
Lou Zhenhua has now completely become a furniture tycoon. Desks and chairs are consumables, and their global demand is uninterrupted. There is a huge and sustainable market.
At the same time, Zhang Zhonghua feels that the fans sold by his Yuhuang Electric Appliances are too cheap. Can European and American countries where money is not enough, sell them more expensively?
"Ahua, what do you want to eat today? I'll arrange for the chef to make it." Lou's mother said with a smile.
"Aunt Tan, just eat whatever you want, I don't choose." Zhang Zhonghua said.
"That's okay, I'll just ask the chef to prepare a table." Lou's mother said with a smile.
After having dinner at Lou's house, Zhang Zhonghua returned to his villa to rest.
In the next few days, Zhang Zhonghua made appearances at several branches and rested at home. As a boss, he must have a good rest and not exhaust his body from work.
After resting in Hong Kong Island for a period of time, Zhang Zhonghua returned to Japan again and took Yoshioka Kazuo, the head of Yuhuang Electric, to the other side of the ocean, Los Angeles, the City of Angels, one of the most prosperous cities in the United States.
Yuhuang Electric, located in Japan, has produced more than 3 million units of various electric fans. In addition to selling them in Japan and Hong Kong's Aowan area, it is also preparing to find other dealers.
Zhang Zhonghua handed over the sales channels in the Hong Kong Aowan area to the Yuhuang Group branches in various regions.
It's a pity that the summer in Europe is not very hot, otherwise he really wants to sell his electric fans to Europe. Fans are dispensable, and there is no market for air conditioners.
