Chapter 499 Acquisition



The suggestion from the provincial leaders was for Wu Changfeng to take over the keyboard factory in Chicheng.

Isn't this an industry you're optimistic about?

Then you can do it yourself.

Why entrust it to the unreliable province of Montreal?

You firmly believe you can make money, right?

As long as it brings profits, we'll go for it!

Moreover, this also involves the fact that the leaders of Inner Mongolia owe him a favor.

Wu Changfeng originally did not want to take over.

What can you do with a broken keyboard? At most, you can only maintain the basics.

We'll have to wait a while for computers to really take off.

Moreover, he had no intention of getting involved in the computer industry in his own plans.

There's no other reason than that this industry is too fragmented and the supply chain is too long.

They'll grab your neck at the drop of a hat.

The chip industry alone is enough of a headache for them.

But Wu Changfeng later changed his mind and took over the keyboard factory anyway.

Because I suddenly discovered a way to make money.

That means converting it into a computer learning machine!

The so-called computer learning machine is actually just an enhanced version of the Subor!

In the previous life, this thing was disguised as a game console under the guise of teaching typing.

You can play all kinds of games like Super Mario Bros. and Contra!

You should know that this is a huge market. What do mainland Chinese families have the most of right now?

There must be a lot of naughty kids!

In addition, learning computers has become a sophisticated trend in society.

Although computers are extremely expensive, it still cannot stop people's enthusiasm for learning. If they can't afford a computer, they will learn to type in computer training classes.

In this era, who could imagine that being able to type is a professional skill?

Typing, which would be commonplace in later generations, is highly sought after now!

Being able to type makes you a cut above the rest.

If a keyboard typewriter were to be invented, it would inevitably cause a sensation.

Because the trajectory of the previous life was the same.

Many children clamor for their parents to buy them learning machines, but secretly they've already prepared game cartridges.

As soon as their parents are not home, wow, they immediately call their friends to start playing games.

What? Learn to type?

I can't even recognize all the characters, how can you tell me how to type?

Let's play games first.

Wu Changfeng made up his mind; that's what he would do.

Going with the flow, giving face to both sides, and earning some extra money for myself.

Thinking this through, Wu Changfeng said to the senior leader, "I've figured it out. I'll take this keyboard. How much are they asking for?"

The high-ranking leader was pleasantly surprised and said, "Look at what you're saying. Buying and selling are all negotiable. How can we offer a bottom price? Wouldn't that interfere with the freedom of trade?"

Wu Changfeng rolled his eyes at him, "Stop pretending."

If it doesn't involve a reserve price, why would a high-ranking official need to come?

You can just make the trip yourself.

Wu Changfeng also knew that Guo Yuda of Chicheng knew that he was using all sorts of underhanded tricks in business.

A skill that catches others off guard is the mark of a cunning old fox.

This kind of property is beyond the reach of ordinary people, so they had to ask the leaders to step in to prevent the keyboard factory from being sold off for nothing during the acquisition negotiations.

After all, everyone remembers the scenes of buying plastic equipment in the island nation!

They can easily eat foreigners, but if they eat their own people, they'd probably leave not even a bone or two.

That's why leaders from two provinces stepped in to mediate.

Wu Changfeng had to give him some face, no matter what.

Logically speaking, an acquisition should devalue the asset, ultimately taking it for a penny.

In short, prices are being continuously pushed down.

But now that we see this, with the top leaders involved, we can't go too far.

Wu Changfeng said, "How about this, I'll go there when I have time to assess the value of the keyboard factory, without putting too much pressure on it, to ensure the interests of all parties involved?"

The senior leader nodded and said, "That's enough. Just don't go too far."

"Good leader."

The two then chatted for a while longer.

The senior leader also asked Wu Changfeng why he was doing OEM manufacturing and why he was working so hard to make money.

Wu Changfeng smiled helplessly.

That VCD production line is in preparation for the future MP3 production line; it's best not to reveal this information.

They act as if they can foresee the future development of the world.

The only response was: I just want to make money whenever I see it; it's a habit.

This remark made the top leader burst into laughter.

After the high-ranking leader left with his men, Wu Changfeng rushed to Chicheng within a few days.

After arriving in Chicheng in my Mercedes-Benz.

Guo Yuda had been waiting for a long time.

Upon meeting, Guo Yuda touched his nose sheepishly and said, "I'm really sorry, this wasn't my decision. The city leaders want to shift the direction of development."

"You can break even with keyboards, but you don't make much profit."

Wu Changfeng waved his hand: "It's alright, I'm here now."

Guo Yuda sighed, "Actually, we had some overseas orders at first, but then they gradually disappeared. I don't know why."

Wu Changfeng said, "The quality is just too good."

Guo Yuda was stunned for a moment, then laughed and cried at the same time: "What you said makes some sense. If you buy it once and use it for several years, there is no need to replace it, so the repurchase rate will not be high. No wonder subsequent orders have dropped sharply."

Wu Changfeng also said earnestly, "I was too hasty. This thing should have appeared a few years later, then there wouldn't have been a drop in orders."

"But if we enter the track at that time, our advantage will be gone."

"The cost advantages in mainland China are the same, and there are many competitors."

Guo Yuda nodded: "Then why did you still acquire this keyboard factory? My original intention was to keep the factory shut down and wait for the right opportunity to restart it, but the leaders thought it was a burden and that it was better to get rid of it."
