Wan Feng wants to sell motorcycles through his international trade channels?
Is this guy going to mess with the international trade industry again?
"Aren't motorcycles in short supply in China? They're not a problem to sell. Why are you even bothering with this?"
Lin Juchuang admires Wan Feng for making motorcycles.
From the revitalization of Xianggang to the present, all they have done in so many years is produce televisions and tape recorders, which are discarded by others. Not to mention motorcycles, they haven't even produced bicycles.
But the kid actually invented motorcycles, and not just one but two.
It is said that he was the one who came up with the Jiangwei 70 that can be seen on the market.
What a talent!
"This is for the future. The motorcycles I'm producing now are all two-stroke motorcycles, which consume a lot of fuel and cause pollution. China is an energy-scarce country, and we have to save as much as we can. To save energy and reduce pollution, I've determined that two-stroke motorcycles will be eliminated in China within ten years. Although they've been eliminated in China, they haven't been eliminated abroad, especially in Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Americas. I plan to sell my motorcycles there."
"Are you planning to make arrangements early?"
"You could say that."
"But foreign countries are full of Japanese motorcycles now. Can you beat them?"
"Why can't I beat them? Now get a genuine Japanese two-stroke motorcycle to compare with. I can say that my motorcycle is no worse than theirs, and it's much cheaper than theirs."
The slogan used by Japanese cars to promote themselves in the 1980s and 1990s was wear-resistant and fuel-efficient.
At that time, China's steel and metal smelting level was indeed far behind that of similar Western products, and of course it could not compete with others.
The core components of Wanfeng's cars are now made of high-quality materials brought back from the Soviet Union, and the steel is even military-grade.
In terms of engine wear resistance, Wan Feng does not think that his cars are worse than others. The only difference is the effect and reputation.
As for fuel saving, that's bullshit.
That's just a propaganda slogan cooked up by the Japanese.
This has been compared many times in later generations. A group of cars that cut corners have not reduced fuel consumption much at all, and are even worse than French cars.
In fact, the truly fuel-efficient cars are European cars, but they are not as good as the Japanese in publicity.
"We have to admit that we are not as good as Japanese cars in terms of reputation, but we have a big advantage in terms of price. Our cars are almost one-third cheaper than Japanese cars. I think we can still win the market. If you are in charge, it will depend on the promotion ability of your people."
Lin Juchuang had no idea about the quality that Wan Feng mentioned. He didn't ride a motorcycle, so he couldn't tell which was good and which was bad.
But what Wan Feng said about the price was true.
Japanese motorcycles usually sell for three to four thousand US dollars in Southeast Asia, which is about twelve to fifteen thousand Chinese yuan.
Motorcycles in China now usually cost around 7,000 to 8,000 yuan.
This is the advantage of Chinese motorcycles.
"According to what you said, you want me to try it? But do you have that much production?" Lin Juchuang asked.
"By the end of this year, our company will have a production capacity of 800,000 units, and by next spring it will reach one million units."
Lin Juchuang took a breath: One million units!
Has this kid's business grown so big?
Wan Feng hasn't mentioned cars yet. If he talks about cars, Lin Juchuang might be so surprised that he will suffer a cerebral hemorrhage.
"Since you said so, Boss Xiao Wan, I'll let the people from the trade department give it a try. If it works, we'll continue the cooperation. If it doesn't work, then forget it."
This kid has a bad nature. Whatever he does becomes popular. What if he becomes a hit?
He has been doing business for decades, and luck is very important for a businessman.
When you are lucky, you can even sell a handful of dirt for money, but when you are unlucky, no one wants even gold.
If his group becomes popular, wouldn't that mean he has another way to make money? Even if it fails, he doesn't seem to have any losses.
Is there anyone who thinks that they have too much money when doing business?
"Actually, I asked you to push my motorcycle so that you could retain this trade channel. In the future, all kinds of Chinese products will be marketed around the world, and we will need a large number of intermediaries and agents. This is a big piece of meat, you can't spit it out."
Throughout the 1990s, Hunan Port played a huge role as a transit point for trade between China and the West.
Unfortunately, the people of Xianggang did not seize the opportunity to develop their own distinctive industries. This was also the reason for the decline of Xianggang after China no longer needed a transit station to deal with the West.
"Various products from China? You said that various products from China will be marketed around the world in the future?" Lin Juchuang was skeptical about this statement.
Given China's current situation, he firmly doesn't believe that Chinese products will be marketed around the world.
"Within 30 years, more than half of the world's goods will be made in China. You may not believe it, but I do. And it won't all be low-end industries, but mid-range and even high-end products."
Lin Juchuang would definitely not believe it, but it seems that as long as he doesn't get sick or suffer any disaster, he will have no problem living for another 20 years. Then he will see it.
Lin Juchuang didn’t care whether Wan Feng believed it or not, as long as he could keep this channel.
As long as he can use it one day in the future, of course it also depends on their abilities.
This transaction on the lithography machine is a test. If they can bring the things to Xianggang and deliver them to the mainland safely, it means that their capabilities are still good.
"There's one more thing. I need 15 million dollars. I can't exchange that much in China. I wonder if Boss Lin can help me out?"
It is much easier to get rice and dollars in Hunan and Hong Kong than in mainland China.
"That doesn't seem to be a problem. I'll have Secretary Xia help you with it later. Oh, and I heard that Shenzhen might open a stock market next year. I wonder what Boss Xiao Wan thinks about it?"
Shenzhen’s stock market will open in December next year. Has Lin Juchuang received the news now?
This information channel is well-informed!
The Chinese stock market started as early as 1986, and it seemed to have only one stock called Feile.
Because there is no exchange and it only circulates underground.
Wan Feng had never played stocks in his previous life. Although he knew some things about the stock market, he didn't know much about it overall.
Hearing that Wan Feng didn't know much about the stock market, Lin Juchuang was a little disappointed.
After finishing the talks with Lin Juchuang, Wan Feng exchanged views with Xia Yingying on the rice-dollar exchange issue.
Xia Yingying also told Wan Feng that people from their company were already in Europe and had contacted the other party. If everything went well, the things he wanted would arrive in Hong Kong in about ten days.
Since his things would arrive at the port in ten days, Wan Feng thought it would be better to go home and come back in a few days.
On July 17, Wan Feng and Han Guangjia left Shenzhen, took a plane in Guangzhou, and returned to Jiangwei on the evening of the 17th.
