Before the arrival of the South Korean delegation.
Wu Changfeng was summoned by County Chief Guo again.
Inside the government office, County Head Guo asked, "Are you sure you want to get involved in the trade city project?"
Wu Changfeng nodded: "As long as Lu Xingtao participates, I will participate. I just can't swallow this insult."
"Okay, then I'll submit the report and let Jiang Cheng make his own choice. I don't think I can be of much help."
Not many days later.
County Chief Guo relayed the message: Jiangcheng had chosen Lu Xingtao.
Wu Changfeng also said: Leave the rest to me. If I let Lu Xingtao do the job well, I'm not Wu!
County Chief Guo stopped caring; that was a matter between the two of them.
Subsequently, Wu Changfeng put this period aside for the time being, as there was still some preparation time before Lu Xingtao would start construction, so there was no rush.
The current priority is to welcome the inspection team from South Korea.
This day.
Park Il-sung finally arrived with his entourage, including Il-kawa.
To Wu Changfeng's surprise, County Chief Guo was also accompanying him.
I don't know where he got the news from, but he said that Park Il-sung wanted to build a factory in Chishui County.
This is fantastic news!
There were no foreign-invested factories in Chishui County yet, which made County Chief Guo extremely happy.
Until Park Seung-il clearly stated: Building a factory is a bit too much; we're here to find an OEM manufacturer!
County Chief Guo immediately deflated.
After inquiring, I learned that they had come for Wu Changfeng.
Since I was already accompanying them, I figured I might as well come along.
At the main gate, Wu Changfeng greeted them.
"Sorry to bother you," Park Seung-il said with a smile.
Wu Changfeng said, "Not at all, we'd love to welcome you."
The group entered the factory.
Park Il-sung and Il-kawa were quite surprised.
This factory was built to extremely high standards!
They've already caught up with the targets of island nations.
The factory buildings are spacious, bright, and comfortable.
There are also quite a few flowers and plants in the factory area.
What's even more remarkable is that all the workers were wearing matching uniforms while they were working.
Mr. Hikawa said, "Mr. Wu, this place is quite nice! Before we came here, we also looked at a few factories on the mainland, and to be honest, they were not very satisfactory."
"Let's not even talk about the factory environment; the workers wear all sorts of clothes. But look at your place; it's so neat and uniform, it looks very professional and organized."
Park Il-sung also said, "Indeed, it's very good. It seems we've come to the right place. I should have just listened to Irikawa-kun and come straight here. We wasted a lot of time in other places."
Wu Changfeng laughed and said, "Without comparison, how can there be any harm?"
A few people laughed.
After touring for a while, Mr. Rikawa stared intently at the bladeless fan production line and kept urging Wu Changfeng to speed up production.
Wu Changfeng said, "Don't worry, worker recruitment is already on the agenda, and we'll increase production capacity soon."
Afterwards, Wu Changfeng had Liu Tiao invite the two men and the inspection team into the office to rest.
County Chief Guo and Wu Changfeng followed behind.
County Chief Guo said in a low voice, "You two knew each other before?"
“I met that Japanese guy at the World Expo in the US. He was an old client of mine, and he introduced Park Il-sung to me.”
"What kind of junk are they planning to produce?"
Wu Changfeng said, "VCD discs and machines."
"Wow!" County Chief Guo exclaimed in surprise, "This thing is very profitable in the south, and it has even affected us here. If a family has one of these, they are the envy of everyone."
Wu Changfeng smiled but didn't say anything.
VCDs did have their moment of glory, but they were phased out after only a little over a decade.
It is truly indispensable both domestically and internationally.
They can make a lot of money; even though it's OEM manufacturing, there's still a profit.
Moreover, after VCDs were phased out, MP3s were seamlessly replaced, as the technologies were largely the same.
The CD is like memory, and the machine is like an MP3 analyzer.
This is why Wu Changfeng believes that OEM manufacturing is feasible.
It's just about seeing further.
County Chief Guo was also considering: "Producing CDs requires purchasing raw materials, which can revitalize the economy of Chishui County. We can't get the electronic copies in the machines, but you will definitely need to hire workers. It's a win-win situation. I suggest you take it on."
“Yes,” Wu Changfeng said, “I have the same thought.”
The two also entered the office, where they chatted and drank tea.
By now, everyone present can see that this project has definitely fallen to Qimingxing.
Park Yisheng and his team discussed it for a moment, and finally said, "Let's cut to the chase. We plan to outsource the manufacturing to you. Do you have any questions?"
Wu Changfeng said, "It's the same old story. You bring the technology, but the production line might be a little slower for me, since we'll have to procure it again."
"Furthermore, you need to ensure that the orders are enough to cover the costs of my production line. Therefore, the contract manufacturing fee cannot be too low, otherwise it will not be profitable for me."
Park Il-sung was taken aback. Was this some kind of calculation? He said confidently, "You can rest assured. VCDs are the mainstream now. Is there anything more popular in the market?"
Wu Changfeng scoffed inwardly.
Your judgment is terrible. Did you not ask around within Samsung about what a memory disk is?
CDs are definitely going to be phased out; there's no doubt about that.
Wu Changfeng would not let Park Yisheng get away with this for free. At the very least, when you place an order, you have to provide me with the production line costs all at once, otherwise I'm not going to play this game with you.
Keep the production line; the MP3 players can still be used later.
Wu Changfeng said, "How about this, we can extend the contract period to ensure the production line costs are covered, otherwise I'm really worried."
