The year-end business negotiation meeting organized by Dongfang's foreign-related superior ministries was quite successful.
One of the new orders in particular is quite eye-catching.
A key figure in the business delegation signed a three-year export agreement for special handicrafts with a foreign trade company.
A total of 7,200 sets of Construction Corps edition Yaobian Tenmoku tea bowl sets were exported.
The Japanese believe that this set of porcelain is an extremely high-quality gift.
This time, it was the Corps' business department that took the lead in negotiating with XX Foreign Trade Company, so Zhang Hongcheng didn't have to worry about it at all.
He got a piece of news from Secretary Zhao: This time the Corps leaders finally came to their senses and issued a strict order to the comrades in charge of the negotiations, insisting on sticking to a certain supply price.
This is a change from the last time when the minimalist furniture was easily given away.
Secretary Zhao told me that Minister Li and his colleagues only recently discovered that the minimalist furniture they looked down upon was selling for a huge sum of money at Bookstore, and the transaction price of each set would leave the bosses stunned.
Then they all beat their chests and stamped their feet, cursing the leader of the foreign trade company very harshly.
As for the Bingtuan, the provider who insisted on keeping the price, it was rumored that it was Minister Li who listened to the calculations made by the director of a guesthouse in Shanghai.
Secretary Zhao told Zhang Hongcheng with a smile that the final price would conservatively estimate to have a gross profit of more than 70 yuan per set.
The leaders all laughed quite heartily.
On the surface, Zhang Hongcheng was full of admiration and congratulations, but he turned around and shook his head.
I can’t carry it with me!
He had already figured out the export prices from the foreign trade company.
The price was only higher than the retail price he sold at the guesthouse, because these foreign guests were exempt from tax when buying things in China, so the gross profit of each set should be around 140 yuan.
It turned out that the Corps’ bottom line in the negotiation was to split the profits in half with the foreign trade company!
The performance of foreign trade companies is all in foreign exchange, yet you give them so much of the domestic profits...
"Oh, it doesn't matter."
Since the Corps was satisfied with earning more than 50 yuan, Zhang Hongcheng had nothing to say.
Anyway, he has already got all the benefits he deserves.
Although Minister Li was initially tricked by Zhang Hongcheng with his rhetoric, he was an old cadre after all, and he eventually discovered Zhang Hongcheng's "cunningness" afterwards. However, Minister Li was willing to be tricked.
Therefore, 70% of the credit for this business was recorded in Zhang Hongcheng's file.
Minister Li distributed the remaining 30% of the work on behalf of Zhang Hongcheng to those who were responsible for the subsequent negotiations and handling.
Zhang Hongcheng understands that only when you and I are well can everyone be well.
But there was one thing that Minister Li and others couldn't recover from for a while.
Zhang Hongcheng's cost quote to the Corps was still 15 yuan per set.
Now both masters are in the hands of Zhang Hongcheng, and together with the borrowed old kiln workshop, the entire production is controlled by Zhang Hongcheng.
The original cost price that the craft factory gave to Zhang Hongcheng was nine yuan per set...
The price of this set also includes some of the factory's management fees and profits.
Therefore, even after deducting the cost of renting the old kiln and the labor of the two masters, the actual cost of Zhang Hongcheng producing a set of [Yaobian Tianmu Tea Bowl Set] is only a little more than seven yuan.
Every time the guesthouse's woodworking workshop provides a set of [Yaobian Tianmu Tea Bowl Set] to the Corps Business Department, it secretly makes a profit of more than 100%.
He only had his eyes on the Corps business department that could earn more than 70 yuan, and didn't notice the mere 7 yuan in floating profit at all.
Master Song and Master Chen had only been seconded to the Corps Guesthouse for less than half a month, and it just so happened that their salaries were paid at the end of the month.
Neither of them slept the whole night at home.
Early the next morning, the two old men asked for leave at the same time and went back to the factory to report - they wanted to convert their secondment into a formal transfer.
Several leaders of the craft factory who were kept in the dark were very happy about it, but they were also worried that it would be difficult to go through the procedures with the Corps.
As soon as the report was faxed to the Corps, eight official seals were stamped on it within half a day.
The director of the craft factory was confused for a moment after answering the phone, and always felt that something... was not right.
On the second day after Master Song officially transferred to an institution under the Corps, documents regarding his retirement and transfer to a clerk position were faxed to Shanghai.
Master Song will be able to retire with the treatment of a clerk in the early spring of next year. Of course, he will be re-hired to continue to complete this order.
The development of Master Chen is very interesting.
The decisive factor that prompted the two veteran workers to "jump ship" so quickly was still the salary payment this time.
The two masters received their basic salary plus half a month's bonus, as well as various allowances and subsidies. When they finally received the money, their hands were shaking as they signed.
After receiving guidance from a “concerned person”, the two masters calculated the amount they had received.
In addition to their original salary, they can get an extra dollar for every product they produce.
According to the production plan formulated by Zhang Hongcheng, they have to produce 200 sets every month, which is a relatively easy job.
With this calculation, the two of them can get at least an extra 200 yuan in bonuses every month!
A steamed bun only costs three cents...
After settling the account, Lao Song and Lao Chen immediately packed up their bedding and quietly defected to the Ming master.
It’s just that they are a little dissatisfied with Zhang Hongcheng’s plan. Who are they looking down on?
The two of us can produce 300 sets a month!
As soon as the work relationship was transferred to the guesthouse, Master Chen’s lover came to find Zhang Hongcheng.
It is said that the company should put off allocating housing.
Haha, ever since she calculated how much her old man earns in a month, she now looks down on those who deliberately take away Qiao's future granddaughter-in-law and her family...
