Chapter 967 Procurement
Xiao Liu looked at the Zhonghua cigarette in Zhang Tao's hand and was somewhat tempted.
Xiao Liu has just changed his job and has not been in the automobile factory for long, so he has not been exposed to many good cigarettes.
Everyone knows that Li Chenglin likes to brag in the Security Department's office. Over the years, the old employees have long been tired of hearing him talk.
It's not easy to get a few new people here, so Li Chenglin naturally wants to show off.
There are only a few topics of conversation among men, and cigarettes are definitely one of them.
Li Chenglin first gave each of the newcomers a Zhonghua cigarette, and then began to brag about himself.
"Following our Factory Director Chen, I have smoked all kinds of cigarettes. Domestic and foreign cigarettes are nothing. I even smoked the special cigarettes provided to the top leaders."
Although I have never seen those cigarettes, Zhonghua cigarettes are really delicious.
Seeing that Xiao Liu was interested, Zhang Tao spoke again.
“Thank you for helping me convey the message today. You can take this pack of cigarettes. I have no other intentions.
Brother, can you tell me about Deputy Director Hou's personality? I just want to know more so that I can have a chat with him later."
When he heard that the other party only wanted to understand Deputy Director Hou's character and he would receive a pack of cigarettes in return, he subconsciously looked around.
The offices of the factory leaders were all on the third floor. Seeing that there was no one else in the corridor, Xiao Liu took the Zhonghua cigarettes handed to him by Zhang Tao for some unknown reason.
When Xiao Liu collected things for the first time, he felt uncomfortable all over and always felt like someone was watching him.
The soft pack of Zhonghua cigarettes feels particularly heavy in my trouser pocket, and I can feel the friction between the cigarette box and my thighs being particularly heavy.
"Our deputy factory director, Hou, is a female comrade, but she is a veteran leader of our automobile factory.
He has been in charge of the logistics and finance of the factory and has been very kind to us workers.”
Although the information he got from Xiao Liu was very limited, Zhang Tao just kept listening and thinking about how to face Deputy Director Hou later.
"dong dong dong"
"Please come in."
"Deputy Director Hou, this is Zhang Tao, he is..."
"Okay, you go out."
Xiao Liu was interrupted before he could finish his words. The good mood he had just felt after receiving a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes was gone.
But facing the deputy factory director, as a gatekeeper in the Security Department, he naturally didn't dare to say much.
Watching Xiao Liu turn and leave, Zhang Tao spoke.
"Hello, Director Hou. I am a salesperson from China International Trust Company. My name is Zhang Wei.
The purpose of my visit to our automobile factory this time is to purchase some color TVs with foreign exchange.
Of course, I hope that Deputy Director Hou can be more generous with the price. When the matter is completed, our trust company will definitely reward you handsomely. "
The reason why Hou Yan was willing to meet Zhang Wei was not for any generous reward.
The salary at the automobile factory was good, and after being the deputy director for so many years, the money she saved was enough for her to live a rich life.
Her current goal is to improve her prestige in the automobile factory as much as possible before Chen Changan leaves the factory.
Once Chen Changan leaves the car factory, his own can replace the car factory.
“It seems that your company is very powerful, and you are able to use foreign exchange to purchase color TVs?
However, we have no trouble selling the color TVs produced by our automobile factory, and our production volume is very high.
Our car factory is too lazy to waste time on the three or five machines.
If the quantity is large, our car factory can make some concessions on the price.
I just don’t know how much I can purchase at one time.”
After hearing what Hou Yan said, Zhang Tao raised a finger and spoke directly.
"One thousand units, the price will be the same as what you shipped to the Huo family."
When she heard the price of one thousand units, Hou Yan's eyes lit up. The market price of 29-inch color TV sets overseas is not low. If she could really make this deal, even a long-term deal, it would really be a credit to her.
"I don't know when your company will need the goods? How can I pay?"
As expected, he came from the finance field and knew how to make payments. If it were any other deputy director in the factory, he would probably not even remember it.
When he heard when to pay, Zhang Tao looked a little embarrassed.
“I wonder if the car factory can provide us with 100 TV sets first.
We need to launch the TV sets on the international market first to see how they sell.
As long as the results are good, we will deposit the money for one thousand units directly into the car factory’s account on the spot.”
Without spending a penny, they want to take away a hundred televisions. Isn't this just getting something for nothing?
Hou Yan felt that it was unreliable to sell the 100 televisions first and then pay the money.
"I don't know where your company is located. Although there are many cases where you get the goods first and then pay.
But those are all small private factories after all, and there is no such precedent in our automobile factory yet.
If it is convenient, I would like to visit your company to see the situation before making a decision. "
As an experienced financial personnel, Hou Yan is still very cautious.
Not many people have experienced the workers’ wage money being robbed.
"Director Hou, our company is in Hong Kong Island. If you want to go there, it won't be easy.
If it weren’t in Hong Kong Island, I wouldn’t have known that the car factory would produce color TVs.”
Then Zhang Tao took out two cards from his pocket and showed them to Hou Yan.
"Deputy Director Hou, look, this is the highest-level room card for the Sijiucheng Hotel and Xiwan Hotel.
The room card for the Sijiucheng Hotel alone costs 880 yuan a day.
It’s not that our company doesn’t have strength. How can a company doing international trade not have some strength?
Deputy Director Hou may not understand that internationally, when companies do business with each other, they basically take the goods first, and if the sales are good, they will settle the bill later. In order to ensure after-sales service, the payment for the goods will not be settled in one go.
Holding on to the old methods of planned economy will not work internationally. If you continue like this, no dealer will cooperate with you. "
After listening to Zhang Tao's words, Hou Yan looked at the room card in Zhang Tao's hand and found that it was indeed from the Sijiucheng Hotel.
Although this matter is somewhat risky, if she remembered correctly, Chen Changan's younger sister Xiujuan is currently in Hong Kong Island.
You can ask Xiujuan to help find out what this so-called trust company is all about.
"Okay then, it's settled. When will your company come to pick up the goods?"
Zhang Tao didn't expect it to be so easy, and then he said.
"It just so happens that your car factory has a truck, so you can just deliver the TV to the Jinmen Port for me. I will then contact a ship for sea transportation.
When we settle the payment for the goods, we will also pay for the travel expenses. What do you think?"
I have already taken out a hundred large color TVs, so this travel expense is nothing.
Hou Yan thought about it and finally nodded in agreement.
Zhang Tao was immediately overjoyed. He quickly stretched out his hand and said.
"Director Hou, it's a pleasure to work with you. Please believe in the strength of our company.
Our company's channels are definitely much stronger than the Huo family's.
I am afraid that in the future the color TVs produced by the automobile factories will not be enough for our company to sell.”
