Chapter 400 How to Cooperate?
"Director Li, how is the research and development of the battery we commissioned you to do? I have never given you less money." Feng Yu asked suddenly.
"The progress is going well. According to your requirements, lithium batteries will be ready next year. There are also nickel batteries, zinc batteries, etc., but these costs are higher than traditional lead-acid batteries. Do you want to install them on your motorcycles?"
"Not only motorcycles, our machinery company produces cars and trucks, which also need batteries. I can sign an agreement with the motor factory. As long as you can meet our requirements, we will purchase batteries from the motor factory in the future. In this way, the motor factory can make a lot of money every year, right?"
"How many motorcycles and cars do you produce every year?"
"This year there will be no less than 300,000 motorcycles and no less than 20,000 cars. The main reason is that the factory is still under construction and will not be put into production until the end of the year. But next year, the production of motorcycles is guaranteed to exceed 600,000. The car can also break through 100,000 units, all using your batteries!"
"Really, your branch factories also use our batteries?" Li Shiyou was overjoyed.
If this is the case, then the battery alone can bring hundreds of millions of turnover to the motor factory every year. With the increase in the output of machinery companies, their turnover and profits will also increase a lot, maybe it can really have tens of millions. profits. But are those batteries really suitable for car batteries?
"That's right, and for this battery project, I suggest that you open branch factories, for example, set up branch factories in many places like the market layout of our machinery company..."
"Wait, you want us to open a branch too?"
"Can't you?"
"You are rich, you can open ten branch factories at once. Our electric motor factory doesn't have so much money, we can't afford to open even one branch factory." Li Shiyou said in a sour tone.
"Then let's cooperate. This technology, I invested in and asked you to develop it. It was agreed at the beginning that the result belongs to me, right? So the investment in technology is not counted. You send people, technicians, workers, etc., and I leave the factory , equipment and funds, how about we set up a joint venture?"
Feng Yu spoke out his purpose. In the future, the battery market will be huge with the development of electric vehicles and the automobile industry. How could Feng Yu miss this good opportunity to make money?
Even if you can't monopolize the domestic market, becoming the leader is definitely not a problem. Electric vehicle batteries alone can generate billions in sales every year, and the profit is definitely not a small amount.
"Cooperation?" When it comes to cooperation, Li Shiyou becomes wary. Did he know that every time they cooperated with each other, although the motor factory didn't suffer a loss, Feng Yu seemed to have made most of the money.
"Let's talk about this later. Director Wen, why don't you talk?" Li Shiyou decided to go back and study it in detail before deciding whether to cooperate with Feng Yu and how to cooperate.
Wen Deguang picked up the wine glass: "Director Li, I don't have much else to say, I would like to toast you and thank you for your help to our farm."
Wen Deguang said, I speak, what do I say? Did you two give me a chance to talk? I couldn't get in the way when I first talked about power generation, and then you two talked about business cooperation, and I couldn't get in the way.
Feng Yu just remembered that Uncle Wen was still sitting next to him.
"I don't drink anymore, and I still drive." Shit, these two are the ones who can drink a glass of liquor in one gulp, so Feng Yu doesn't mix it.
Only then did Wen Deguang start drinking while talking with Li Shiyou about the construction of the power station in detail. Feng Yu is also helping from time to time, striving for the greatest convenience for the farm.
In the end, Feng Yu invested one million yuan on behalf of Taihua Grain Processing Factory. In the future, not only can he get a 30% discount on electricity consumption, but he can also get a certain amount of profit from the electricity bill.
This method is generally the way to build power stations locally, and there are precedents. For specific operations, the two-way efforts of the motor factory and the farm are easy to succeed.
Guodian, which is caught in the middle, can share part of the profits for free as long as it is allowed to connect to the grid, and they will not object.
After dinner, Wen Deguang went to the city's Provincial Agricultural Reclamation General Bureau to report to work.
The problem of returning their farmland has been completely solved. However, Wen Deguang didn't really plan to plant those lands with grass. Anyway, the above policy has not yet come down. He plans to contract it to other farmers and collect part of the fees as a small treasury for the farm. When will the policy come down, and when will the farmland be forced to return!
...
When Li Shiyou returned to the motor factory, he immediately called for the deputy chief engineer in charge of the battery project, and the manager of the sales office of the factory waited for a few related people to come over. He had to ask first if the battery could cooperate with Feng Yu, and if so, what should he do? How to cooperate, how many shares should be required at the minimum.
"Factory manager, to be honest, I'm not optimistic about this battery project. Just say this lithium battery, the price is so high, will anyone buy it? For ordinary cars, lead-acid batteries are enough, just to start a fire. It’s just a light, how cheap are lead-acid batteries. Lithium batteries, except for some devices that require special storage capacity, I really don’t know what’s the use.” The deputy chief engineer said.
"I think we can cooperate. Didn't Feng Yu say that he will provide the venue, funds, and equipment, and we will provide technicians and workers. In this way, we don't have to pay much. If it succeeds, The profit is not low. Besides, Feng Yu promised that the cars of their machinery company will use our batteries in the future, but some of their factories are in the south. Is it possible to purchase from our ice city and ship them to the south? The purchase he said is probably from Procurement from cooperative factories. If we don’t agree to cooperate, this procurement will be out of the question. Even the production of lead-acid batteries can make a lot of profit.” The manager of the sales department said very shrewdly.
"Technicians and workers have to leave their hometowns and go to work in other places. Do we need to subsidize them abroad? Will Feng Yu accept the wage increase?"
"It shouldn't be a problem, the workers in the machinery company, but their wages are rising faster than our factory. I heard that Feng Yu proposed it on his own initiative. There is also the Taihua company, which raises wages every year. I heard that now they have a monthly wage increase. The salary is more than 170. This Feng Yu is not a person who is stingy with the workers." Said the chief of the finance department of the electrical machinery factory.
Li Shiyou shook his head: "You don't understand what I mean. I tell you this, not to ask if you cooperate, but to confirm that you want to cooperate with him. Now my question is, should we invest a sum of money to increase the shareholding ratio.”
"What? Factory manager, if we receive the order for the Three Gorges this time, we will focus on this. How can we have money to invest in the new factory? Besides, even if it is workers and technicians, we may not have enough What does Feng Yu mean, doesn’t it seem like he wants to open a factory?”
Li Shiyou was very hesitant. Based on his knowledge of Feng Yu, Feng Yu's investment had never been lost. But where is the market for this battery? Lithium batteries used in cars? How could he not believe it? Wouldn't the cost of the car increase a lot and the profit decrease?
There are so many people, how come there is no one who can discuss it. No, I have to test Feng Yu tomorrow. This opportunity to make money must not be missed!
