Vice Mayor Liu gestured with one hand in the air and said to the crowd, "Initially, Jiafeng Electronics entrusted a batch of television sets to Guangfa Trading Agency this year to try selling them. Unexpectedly, they actually sold them and opened up the overseas market."
"Then, the dispute over profit distribution led to a confrontation between the two industries. The manufacturing industry believed that it did the most work, while the other side was just a seller, yet it wanted to take the highest profits. The trading agents believed that without them, even the best-producing industry would be useless, because even the best wine needs advertising."
"These two viewpoints have been hotly debated in various media outlets, like the chicken-or-egg dilemma. I don't know if you saw it, but last night on the news, a TV station invited two experts to comment on this issue, and the two experts got into a fight."
The audience burst into laughter.
"Business is about cooperation and win-win. Trade export is a brand new direction. It is also proof that after we put forward the industrial upgrading, our joint efforts have greatly improved the technological content and quality of our products. Being able to go global and win glory for the country is a good thing."
"Initially, we wanted to hold talks with the two companies, but we realized that this was not in line with market and business principles. So we held this forum to provide a space for everyone to exchange ideas, hoping that more brands can go global, become stronger, and help people get richer."
"That's all I have to say. This forum is mainly for entrepreneurs to exchange ideas. Everyone can speak their minds, be frank with each other, raise the issues, and reach a consensus."
Vice Mayor Liu looked around and asked Lu Feng and Li Guangfa, "Which of you two would like to come up and speak first?"
"President Li, please go first!" Lu Feng said.
Li Guangfa stood up and went on stage. There were cameras following him. Standing on the stage, Mr. Li cleared his throat and said: "Respected leaders and entrepreneurs, it is an honor to be on stage. As Vice Mayor Liu just said, this is a very good thing in itself. Our responsibility is to serve the companies present here."
"We should embody the spirit of hard work and dedication. You are responsible for building, and we are responsible for selling. Everyone should do their part to build a better home together. Actually, I was quite upset after this happened. I was very emotional at the time and said a few words during the interview. I never expected it to turn out like this. Mr. Lu and I are very good friends in private, and we have been actively discussing this matter during this period."
Thank you everyone!
A very official round of applause erupted from the audience. Lu Feng stood up and walked upstairs, followed by a cameraman carrying a video camera and filming him.
"First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the leaders for their care for Jiafeng Electronics. It makes me feel especially warm." Lu Feng glanced at everyone and said, "Jiafeng Electronics' development to this day is inseparable from your support and care, as well as the friendly competition from our competitors. I think competition is good. It can make companies have the ambition to move forward and have that spirit of not admitting defeat and not being afraid of losing."
"We should encourage and compete with each other, and conduct consultations in a friendly atmosphere. As Mr. Li just mentioned, we have a very good personal relationship. Although he is older than me, we are very close friends. From the time when our two companies had different opinions to the confrontation between our two industries, I think we lacked the patience, love, and ambition of an entrepreneur. We were not tolerant enough and were unable to sit down and discuss things while seeking common ground."
"I have learned a lot from this experience. Life is like this; we learn as we go. There is always something to learn from others. In the future, Jiafeng Electronics will continue to actively promote the spirit of daring to be the first, with the care of our leaders and the support of society. Thank you all."
Applause erupted at the scene. Vice Mayor Liu then called over several well-known executives to chat about the industry and foreign trade, and then proceeded to extoll the future foreign trade market environment. It was already noon.
The morning was for a TV interview, the evening for a local broadcast, and the afternoon for a closed-door meeting. At noon, Lu Feng stood up and walked out. As he reached the door, Li Guang suddenly said, "Lu Feng, let me tell you, I can give Jiafeng Electronics one last chance now."
"A 90/10 split, and you're giving me a chance? I'll fucking swear..."
