When Bao Tong heard Zhang Guozhi's explanation, he frowned.
"Why is this not working, and that not working? I was originally hoping this 666 Weitai would give our pharmaceutical company a turnaround. We lost 380,000 last year, and that's really displeased our boss."
Cai Hongjun suddenly had an idea. "Old Bao, Old Zhang, I have an idea. Do you think it's feasible?"
Cai Hongjun has always been known as the wise man of the pharmaceutical company and has a lot of ideas, so Manager Bao and Zhang Guozhi sat up straight and wanted to hear what he had to say.
"We support Section Chief Chen and help him solve problems one by one. For example, we help him apply for a pharmaceutical factory license. We are familiar with the Health Bureau and the Industry and Commerce Bureau, so approving a branch factory license is a piece of cake, right?"
Manager Bao and Zhang Guozhi nodded, motioning for him to continue.
"They're running low on raw materials. Don't forget what we do. We can just run all over the country for them. Aside from wild ginseng and bezoar being a bit more expensive, donkey-hide gelatin and cordyceps are common medicinal herbs and easy to get. We can just help him with this raw material issue, okay?"
Zhang Guozhi saw him stop and acted as a supporting role at the right moment, "And then?"
"We helped him secure a pharmaceutical factory license and raw material supply, allowing him to register under our pharmaceutical company. We promised not to interfere with his production. Our only requirement was that all Sanliu Weitai must be supplied to our head office and must not be sold privately.
Just imagine, once he opens a pharmaceutical factory and increases production, and we're the exclusive agent, the profits will be huge. Even if we make 1 yuan per pill and produce 2,000 pills a day, the annual profit will be 700,000 or 800,000 yuan.
If their production costs come down, the wholesale price we pay them will surely drop as well. We could then add 1.5 to 2 yuan to each pill, and that would bring in over 1 million yuan a year. Not only would we be able to turn a profit, but we'd also become a regional sensation."
The proposal of making more than 1 million yuan for the pharmaceutical company a year made Bao Yong and Zhang Guozhi dumbfounded. As soon as Cai Hongjun finished speaking, Bao Yong slammed the table.
"Yes, Lao Cai, you are indeed the wise man of our unit. This is equivalent to adding another subsidiary to our pharmaceutical company. Even if it is just an affiliated unit, we control all of its sales channels. We are sure to make a lot of money. One million, damn."
Zhang Guozhi thought for a moment and said, "I think Manager Cai's idea is a good one. This way, he won't face any policy risks. By registering it under our company's name, it's still state-owned in theory."
Thinking about how much profit can be generated in a year and how much money can be made at the end of the year, everyone's heart immediately became excited.
Manager Bao said, "Guozhi, send a car to Ke Town right away to find Section Chief Chen. Let's discuss how to run this pharmaceutical factory and get it up and running as soon as possible. Our future prosperity depends entirely on it."
By the time Chen Xia finished his work at the company and rushed to Yuezhou Pharmaceutical Company, it was already evening.
Chen Xia's arrival was warmly welcomed by Bao Yong, Cai Hongjun and Zhang Guozhi. In their eyes, Chen Xia was not a section chief of the Fourth Hospital, but a mobile political achievement.
If you hold on to this person, salary increase and promotion will be a piece of cake.
After having a hearty "working lunch" in the cafeteria, everyone came to the manager's office.
Zhang Guozhi told Chen Xia the solution they had discussed before.
"Here's the deal. You'll be registered under our pharmaceutical company's name, and we'll take care of the licenses and raw materials. We'll also underwrite all your products. Chief Chen, I'm not exaggerating, but this offer is absolutely unique in Yuezhou. I doubt even the Shenzhen Special Zone offers such good treatment."
Chen Xia really wanted to curl her lips, thinking that this treatment was really good, but wanting to be the exclusive agent for this stomach pill was obviously trying to make money from me.
But he still had to be polite: "This policy is absolutely impeccable. You leaders have such open-minded ideas. I think the central government has no problem with this idea of urgently revitalizing the economy."
Hahaha, everyone likes to hear polite words.
Manager Bao smiled and said, "Section Chief Chen, if you have any ideas or requests, you can bring them up now and we can discuss it."
Cai Hongjun also added with a smile: "As long as we can do it, we will definitely help you do it."
Why do they seem like bad people? Just like the wolf who seduced Little Red Riding Hood.
Chen Xia also raised a few questions: "Leaders, if I register under your pharmaceutical company, how will the registration fee be calculated?"
Manager Bao had already thought about it, and waved his hand generously.
"What's the deal with the licensing fees? As long as you agree to give us the exclusive agency rights, we guarantee we won't charge you a cent, and we won't interfere with your operations. Of course, you have the final say on the pharmaceutical company. This can be written into the contract."
"If the policy changes in the future, who will own this pharmaceutical factory?"
Manager Bao was stumped. "Oh, as long as it's affiliated with our pharmaceutical company, it's state-owned. There's nothing we can do about it. But I can guarantee that if national policy changes one day and you're allowed to leave the affiliation, we won't charge you a penny."
For Bao Yong, the most important thing now is to get Chen Xia to set up the pharmaceutical factory as soon as possible, speed up production, and preferably generate profits before the New Year.
As for any requirements, of course everything is OK. If Chen Xia says she wants to marry his daughter who is still in high school, that would be OK too.
Chen Xia thought about it for a while and felt that there shouldn't be much policy risk, so he said with a smile,
"Finally, I have one more request, which is that the 666 brand must be owned by me personally. This must be written into the contract."
Bao Yong and Cai Hongjun didn't care: "It's yours, all yours. Don't worry, we are not interested in 999 or 888. We promise you. All contracts will be handled according to your wishes. Our only request is that you start production as soon as possible."
Chen Xia slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, since the leaders have said so, I will give it a try to see if I can set up this pharmaceutical factory. I can earn some hard-earned money and also create economic and social benefits for the pharmaceutical company. I hope we can achieve a win-win situation."
"Win-win? Yes, yes, that's a good word."
When Bao Yong and Cai Hongjun saw Chen Xia agree immediately, they smiled so hard that their back teeth were exposed.
Chen Xia had actually already made up his mind: operating a factory under a sponsorship was his only option in 1981. Of course, he could also start his own factory like the "Eight Kings" of Wenshui City, but while he was enjoying prosperity now, the next few years would be a disaster.
What is his purpose in being willing to stay in the Fourth Hospital and get a salary of a few dozen yuan a month?
Isn't it just to cover yourself with a layer of public protection and protect yourself so that you won't be beaten to death on the beach by a wave?
After all, those "tyrants" who went into business in the early 1980s, could generate tens of millions in profits a year, and then went to Hong Kong and the United States to trade futures can only exist in novels.
The first year of Chinese enterprises had to wait until 1984, but the time had not yet come.
If you want to have fun, you have to wait another two years.
