Chapter 1540 Visiting the Market

"Are you going back tomorrow? We have one place left that you haven't visited yet, won't you feel any regret?" In fact, lying under a parasol in the middle of the day is not a pleasant thing, especially when there is sand under your body.

It would be okay if there was a little wind, but if there was no wind at all, the steam would still be overwhelming even if the sea was not far away.

Makes people feel drowsy.

Sleeping on the beach is definitely not a smart choice. If you are not in good physical condition, you may suffer a stroke.

"What other fun places are there in Jiangwei?"

Mi Guangnan and others have lived in the capital for a long time. They all say that people living at the foot of the imperial city treat outsiders like grass, and this is not false.

They are used to living in the capital and don't really care about other places.

They have some knowledge of big cities, but they have no impression of small towns like Hongya.

If they don’t even care about Bohai Sea, how could they care about a county town!

Even if they came to Jiangwei, they only had a rough idea of ​​where it was on the map, and they didn't care at all about what else was there.

"Have you heard of Liaonan Wahou Daji?"

The people who originally had no illusions finally became a little more cheerful.

Some people have heard of it, but some people don’t know it yet.

"From what you said, it seems that the Wahou Market is in your Jiangwei Village?"

"Of course, we're in the Wahou Squad. Otherwise, how could we possibly teach at the Wahou Fair? Are you interested in going shopping? The things there are much cheaper than on the market, especially the clothes, shoes, and hats."

Of course I have to go shopping here, since it’s so hard to get here.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to come back to this kind of small place again in my lifetime. It would be a shame if I didn't visit the market to broaden my horizons.

Therefore, Mi Guangnan and others who had originally planned to set off the next day stayed and stayed in Jiangwei for another day.

Therefore, at around 7:30 the next morning, Wan Feng brought the group to Wahou.

When Wan Feng and these people were passing by the Wahou team headquarters, Luan Changyuan stuck his head out of the team headquarters and called out to Wan Feng.

"Xiao Wan, Xiao Dexiang wants to talk to you."

"I know, but not now. I have guests. Wait until I have time."

What Xiao Dexiang wanted to talk to Wan Feng about was probably the matter of taking over the bulldozer.

"Wow! I didn't expect this market to be so big!" someone in the tour group exclaimed.

"Is it bigger than any other vegetable market in Beijing?"

The Wahou Market has expanded a lot in the past two years.

The original site had expanded to the end and there was no room for development, so it was developed towards the back of the mountain along the parking lot that was originally connected to the Shanhou Team.

The original parking lot was also moved to the territory of the team behind the mountain.

Now, from south to west, you can see markets and people everywhere.

Wan Feng took them into the market and gave them a brief introduction to the development history of the market while they were on tour.

"I didn't expect that this market is also related to you?" Mi Guangnan felt more and more that this young man Wan Feng was not simple.

"In the beginning, I just wanted to sell shoes and create some wealth for the group. I never thought it would develop into this. So when you start doing something, you don't need to think too much about the future. Just have a general strategic direction."

"Why does it sound like this is directed at me?" Wan Shouwu said with a smile.

"That's not my intention. I just felt it."

Wan Shouwu chuckled and said, "I don't believe it."

Wan Feng led them from clothing to shoes and hats to hardware, and finally to the electronics market.

Here Mi Guangnan saw the learning machine produced by Huaguang Technology.

Almost every stall sells it, and there are quite a few customers buying it, and the transaction volume is quite considerable.

After a while, he saw at least seven or eight learning machines successfully traded.

Little did he know that what he saw were only retail items, and the wholesale items were no longer traded at the stalls.

“How many learning machines can you sell in a day?”

“Not many, maybe a few thousand.”

"A few thousand units isn't a lot?" Mi Guangnan was speechless.

"There's not much profit, and it's not much fun. It's just to support some workers. Don't you have a trade business in Lianxiang? Are you interested in being an agent in Beijing?"

“That department was cut.”

"What a pity. Otherwise, you can become the agent. I will give you the qualification of general agent in Beijing area. Go back and open a store in Beijing to specialize in wholesale learning machines. I guarantee that you can make 100,000 yuan a year." Wan Feng joked.

He knew that letting Mi Guangnan's people become hawkers would be worse than beating him to death.

"You are playing the piano. If I stayed in a foreign country for money and came back to be a peddler, you would be able to give me some random advice."

"Mr. Mi! I really hope you can bring your team to me. If you come now and start researching chips, there will be no IBM or Intel in the world in the future."

Mi Guangnan is now leading his team to research chips, and there is a real possibility of dominating the market.

In addition to his excellent technical skills, Mi Guangnan also has a strong network of contacts, which is what Wan Feng values ​​most.

Connections are the key to career success.

It takes three to make a hero. This is a truth summed up by the ancients and it is not just a casual saying.

He is a newcomer in the semiconductor industry and almost no one takes him seriously, at least not yet.

But Mi Guangnan is different. He can tell what materials and talents he needs in the industry with just a word.

If Mi Guangnan came, he would be prepared to spend a lot of money.

It’s not that he can’t afford it. Including the factory, he now has assets worth more than 3 billion. What’s the harm in investing it all?

If IBM and Intel are defeated, how big will the market be in the future?

A market worth hundreds of billions of dollars!

What a reward!

Moreover, if IBM doesn't fight, it will collapse in the future, and its only competitor is Intel.

"I really can't come. We just established a research and development team in Xianggang last year, and I came to you this year. How will the industry evaluate me? How can I survive in China?"

What Mi Guangnan said makes sense. People in their middle age may not care about many things, but they value face and reputation more.

No one wants to leave a reputation of being disrespectful to the elderly and embarrass future generations.

Wan Feng understood Mi Guangnan's feelings very well, so after Mi Guangnan reiterated it, he could only sigh.

In the electronics market, some factory managers unexpectedly saw electronic components produced by their own companies.

So I went to ask the stall owners how their products were selling.

The stall owner was not polite at all and gave the factory manager a lot of suggestions on the spot.

Things like the price is too high, the quality is not high, the design is rough and unreasonable, etc.

The factory director was overjoyed and immediately took out a small notebook to write down all the information.

If he hadn't come to the market, he wouldn't have known the feedback from the grassroots.

If we can implement these suggestions from the grassroots into product improvements, we may be able to produce first-class products.

By the time we had finished touring the main market in Waihou, it was already noon.

Wan Feng suggested that everyone go to the food street for dinner and then go to the industrial products market in the afternoon.
