Chapter 208 A Heavyweight Boss Appears
If we keep setting up stalls in Huaqiangbei, we will soon reach the ceiling of this industry. If Bansi sells its products in person, how much can it sell in a day? How many orders can it negotiate?
Huaqiangbei can consume the goods of Bansi Company, but is Bansi Company only satisfied with supplying goods to Huaqiangbei? The ultimate goal is to make money from all over the world.
So Lu Shan decided to cooperate with large computer brands and use their mature channels to open up sales as quickly as possible and obtain money for scientific research. He did not have that much time to spend on business, and sooner or later he would have to find someone to do it.
The other aspect is the issue of production.
How much can BanSi produce on its own? If the production line is expanded, it will involve equipment, factory buildings, and dealing with local authorities. In the end, it will have to hire a lot of administrative staff to take care of it.
These are not what Lu Shan wants to see. He would rather start his own company in the future just to produce limited core components and develop applications from laboratory to production line.
Large-scale production is handed over to partners.
Companies like Lianxiang and Shenchuan have their own production lines, and Bansi Company only needs to modify the technology and parameters to start production.
In this way, complex issues such as employment, land, taxes, equipment depreciation, etc. are thrown to the partners, and you can sit back and enjoy the technology dividends, saving worry and effort and still making money, with the best cost-effectiveness.
Finally, we must find Lianxiang, Shenchuan and other companies to cooperate because of the future trend.
Of course, the most important thing is that the future is the era of the Internet. Everything is displayed on the terminal. Computers and mobile phones are important links. In the Internet era, mastering core hardware technology and then creating content on the Internet is the most important thing.
Cooperating with electronic consumer product merchants actually means spending the least amount of money and getting the terminal entry ticket first.
Lu Shan must prepare for the future and cooperate with these companies. Obtaining equity is equivalent to obtaining the sales rights of terminal equipment.
The above reasons forced Lu Shan to cooperate with Shenchuan and other companies. The most pressing reason at the moment is the expansion of production lines. The sales of memory sticks will definitely not be a problem, and Bansi Company has obviously been unable to keep up with production!
After Lu Shan replenished the stock, he left it alone for two days. On the one hand, it was a hunger marketing campaign, and on the other hand, there was really not much inventory left, so he had to leave some for computer brands to use in emergencies.
BanSi Company closed its stall for two days, which made the bosses who wanted to buy memory very anxious. They waited for Lu Shan's stall every day, imagining that Lu Shan would suddenly come out with a bunch of memory sticks and they would be the first to buy one.
But they still waited for two days and then queued up to buy the memory sticks.
Lu Shan hired two people to sell at the front desk, while he rested and thought about problems in the back. Although he was always busy with business outside, the two big guys in the Heroic Spirit Space were not idle.
After finishing their work, Lu Shan and Zhang Lingxi returned to the hotel, but they were stopped by a middle-aged man in the lobby.
"Hello, Mr. Lu Shan. My surname is Wang, and I'm here to meet you." The visitor introduced himself in a polite manner.
This guy has a lot of followers behind the scenes, just like the gangster boss in Hong Kong movies.
Lu Shan shook hands with him briefly, looking puzzled. The middle-aged man named Wang then introduced himself. It turned out that he was the boss of Huaqiangbei, Wang Pu.
Lu Shan recalled that in his previous life, when he was hanging around Huaqiangbei, the story he heard most often was the legendary story of Wang Pu, who started out as a radio equipment factory and later entered the real estate and consumer electronics industries.
The main boss and founder of Huaqiangbei.
During this period, Lu Shan's store became the most dazzling place in Huaqiangbei.
Of course it caught Wang Pu's attention.
As the host, we are in Huaqiangbei, an electronics consumption center famous for its counterfeits and scams.
Suddenly, innovative scientific products emerged.
Wang Pu will definitely come forward.
If we could invite Lu Shan to open a store in Huaqiangbei for a long time.
This has important positive significance for enhancing the reputation of Huaqiangbei.
"I came here to ask Mr. Lu Shan to do me the honor of having dinner with me." Boss Wang was very polite and said, "The location is nearby. I have a car that can pick you up. It won't take you too long."
Lu Shan more or less understood the man's intention. Most likely he wanted to discuss business cooperation. Well, he had to find someone to cooperate with anyway, so why not ship through multiple channels?
He immediately agreed to Boss Wang's invitation, and when the time came, Boss Wang came in person to pick up Lu Shan and Zhang Lingxi.
When we arrived at a private room in a nearby high-end hotel, Boss Wang led the way. He said nothing but nice things along the way and also talked about some interesting things he had seen and heard. The atmosphere never cooled down.
"Mr. Lu Shan, the people who are here today are all cargo owners from Huaqiangbei. They know that I am going to invite you for dinner, so they have all taken the initiative to ask to come and keep you company. If we have cooperation in the future, this is a good opportunity for us to get closer. Haha! Haha!" As he said that, Boss Wang pushed open the door and let Lu Shan and Zhang Lingxi in.
Boss Wang was the host and he started introducing everyone to each other. All the visitors were businessmen and they spoke so eloquently that even the birds in the trees would be tricked into coming down to have a drink.
Lu Shan had seen many such situations before his rebirth and was able to handle them with ease.
Zhang Lingxi just felt it was very noisy. After all, human joys and sorrows were not the same, and she had never seen such a scene.
Suddenly, someone caught Lu Shan's attention. When Boss Wang introduced him, he hesitated. It seemed that he was brought by a friend of a friend, so he was not very familiar with him.
"Hello, Mr. Lu Shan! I have heard a lot about you!"
Just as Lu Shan was looking at him, this person took the initiative to greet Lu Shan.
Seeing a familiar face. Lu Shan was shocked!
Isn’t this Lei Jun, the founder and CEO of Xiaomi in the future?
Lei Jun showed a warm smile, and his two dimples were very conspicuous on Fang Fang's face. His hair was 3:7 pink, with bangs on one side. His hair was extremely thick and he didn't look like a programmer at all.
"Huh?" Lu Shan was suddenly alert. When he asked Ma Lijuan to go out to expand the business earlier, he asked her to pay attention to this person. He didn't expect to meet him in this occasion!
Looking at Lei Bushi, who looked more like a reborn person than himself, Lu Shan felt extremely complicated, but he expressed enough kindness.
Everybody sat down together. Boss Wang, who was truly a master of the scene, made the atmosphere quite lively. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, it was time to get down to business.
Boss Wang looked at Lu Shan with a smile at this time: "I invited Mr. Lu Shan to come here today. In fact, I want to invite Mr. Lu Shan to stay in Huaqiangbei permanently. The location and other things are easy to discuss, and even the rent can be waived!"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhang Lingxi almost spit out the soup.
It is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land in Huaqiangbei is worth a lot of money. A stall in Huaqiangbei is only two square meters, but the rent is 20,000 yuan.
Now Boss Wang offers rent-free right away, which is really generous.
However, Lu Shan was very calm. He understood that there were not many good locations left and everyone was not stupid and would rent one.
It is impossible to evict the existing tenants and let yourself move in. In this case, the location is easy to say, but a good location is hard to say, and it is even harder to say where you can open a stall.
Moreover, free rent means there will be other demands, and I don’t know if I can accept it.
Seeing Lu Shan's calmness, Boss Wang also felt emotional. This young man never got excited from beginning to end. It seemed that nothing could make his emotions too fluctuate. He was polite to others, but it seemed that it was limited to courtesy.
"Do you need me to do anything?" Lu Shan asked politely.
Boss Wang laughed loudly: "Mr. Lu Shan is indeed a straightforward person. In fact, he doesn't have any requirements. These conditions are all taken care of by these friends. They only need Mr. Lu Shan to provide them with limited supplies. Don't worry! Pay first, and I won't make it difficult for Mr. Lu Shan!"
"Okay! Senior Lingxi, please record the information of several bosses." Lu Shan made the decision immediately. He was not the kind of person who would waste time when doing things.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu Shan! I'll offer you a drink, please feel free to do as you please!"
"I'll toast to you too!"
"Me too!"
Several big cargo owners were overjoyed. They didn't expect Lu Shan to be so easy to talk to, and they all toasted him.
The business was settled, and the wine was drunk to its full potential. The next thing everyone did was to start the classic activity at the dinner table - chatting!
Bragging is not entirely bragging. Many of the things heard are true, but they have been processed. However, these things are what many bosses have seen after doing business for decades.
For Lu Shan, these experiences are actually business warfare knowledge that is more worth learning.
Lu Shan listened very carefully. It would definitely be a good thing to learn more. Others must have seen more pitfalls than himself. It would be good to be more careful. In the future, he would have to form a team to manage his own business. He should at least understand some of the twists and turns.
From books, legal knowledge can be learned directly, but this kind of specific business knowledge really needs someone to give you some advice.
After talking for a long time, Lei Jun's emotions were in place, and everyone talked about the future development of the computer industry.
"In the future, mobile phones will definitely have to be used in a completely different way!" Lei Jun was very excited.
Lu Shan rarely took the initiative to speak: "What specific method do you want to change?"
"Mobile phones will have more and more functions. Just look at Apple, which has already shown such a trend. Its phones have many revolutionary functions that current phones don't have."
One boss disagreed: "Just because it has many features doesn't mean it can be used."
"That's not true. You may not be used to it at first, but you cannot deny the convenience of these functions. Just wait and see. Soon mobile phones will become smarter and more responsive. There are even many content industries that rely on mobile phones. Haven't you seen that? Computers are too inconvenient no matter how you do it. If computers can be made as big as mobile phones and mobile phones can directly replace computer functions, wouldn't it be much more convenient for everyone?"
"Is this possible? Computers have so many parts, how can they be small?"
"The problem of materials will arise sooner or later!" Lei Jun was very confident. He continued to cite the example of Apple, and the things above fascinated him.
"Okay! If you make a smartphone in the future, I will definitely supply you with memory."
"It's a deal!" This is what Lei Jun was waiting for.
The dinner ended very happily. Boss Wang saw everyone out and everyone said goodbye.
At this time, Lu Shan fell behind and started chatting with Lei Bushi.
"Mr. Lei, ARE YOU OK?" Lu Shan suddenly became playful and said this.
Lei Bushi's mouth was faster than his brain, and he subconsciously replied: "I'm fine. Thank you very much!"
When Lu Shan heard the familiar accent, he immediately thought of the ghost video and laughed out loud. He hadn't been so happy in a long time.
Lei Jun was a little confused. Lu Shan, under the influence of alcohol, approached Lei Jun and said, "Let me ask you another question, Mr. Lei. Do you have 4 billion cold dollars in your account and are you planning to start a business?"
