After returning home and having just finished dinner, Li Shaozhong received a call from his father.
Li Jianye asked about Li Shaozhong's recent situation over the phone, and then said, "Shaozhong, a lot of people have come to me recently, hoping to use my connections to pass on messages to you, hoping to cooperate with you."
Li Shaozhong didn't expect that someone would come to his father's place. "What kind of companies are they?"
Li Jianye said, "There are chemical plants, machinery plants, fertilizer plants, food plants, and so on. They all want you to invest, and some also want to acquire your technology."
When Li Shaozhong heard about the fertilizer plant, he said, "Dad, we're thinking of investing in a fertilizer plant, and it would be great if anyone wants to cooperate with us. So, give them my office number and ask them to contact me so I can see if it's a good fit. I'll be working at Haizhou Daily Chemical Plant No. 2 for the time being, so they can come to me. We need to talk first if we want to collaborate."
Li Jianye saw that his son seemed to be accepting everyone who came and said, "Shaozhong, aren't you expanding your business too much? Aren't you moving too fast?"
Li Shaozhong smiled and said, "Dad, Xiao Ning and I still think our development is too slow. If we hadn't run out of available talent, we'd be moving even faster. Dad, we need talent here, whether in the lab or in the factories. If you come across technicians who want a salary change or have lost their jobs due to a recession, please introduce them to us. Even better, if you have any experts, we'll definitely give them the best treatment. I'm almost going to some research institutes to recruit them myself."
Li Jianye also knew that Li Shaozhong and his team were building a large, comprehensive laboratory in Haizhou, requiring researchers from all walks of life. Of course, he had to help his son with this request. "Don't worry, I'll help you find someone."
Ye Shuning had been sitting next to Li Shaozhong. After Li Shaozhong hung up the phone, she asked, "Why? Has anyone gone to see Dad?"
Li Shaozhong nodded. "There are many companies, mostly chemical and machinery plants, as well as fertilizer plants, food factories, and so on. These are all established factories, but their performance isn't very good, and they're all trying to attract investment. Some companies are currently stagnant in technology and have outdated management. If they don't seek change, bankruptcy is inevitable."
There are also some company leaders who have conservative and rigid thinking and are not enterprising. They will be the first to be laid off in the future.
"Xiao Ning, didn't you say you wanted to build a fertilizer plant? This time, a fertilizer plant wants to cooperate with us. Let's see if we can work together. I've been at the Second Plant for a while now, and I'm looking at which companies are looking for me."
With the help of the Zhao family, Zhao Huixin came to Haizhou and started working at Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2.
She is very low-key in the factory, but she also tries hard to make friends with some people so that they can be of use to her in the future.
Her work was not onerous and was relatively easy, so she had more time to think about other things. After observing her, she first locked onto a female employee from the same department, Lü Jia.
Lu Jia was impulsive, prone to fighting for justice, and simple-minded, making him easily manipulated. Zhao Huixin saw this in Lu Jia, so through her deliberate approach and encouragement, she and Lu Jia quickly became good friends.
Zhao Huixin often heard news about Li Shaozhong and Ye Shuning from Lu Jia, and other people also often talked about Li Shaozhong and his wife.
After all, Li Shaozhong and his wife are the major shareholders of Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2 after the public-private partnership. The couple also master most of the technologies for the company's new products. They are the core figures in the factory and are regarded as remarkable figures by everyone.
The people at the factory were mostly praising Li Shaozhong and his wife, and Zhao Huixin was almost getting calluses from hearing them. However, as others praised Ye Shuning, Zhao Huixin's jealousy grew deeper and deeper, and she cursed Ye Shuning in her heart every day.
These days, Li Shaozhong has been staying in his own office at Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory No. 2. He receives endless calls every day, most of which are from people who want to discuss cooperation with him.
Some people even came here directly, wanting to negotiate with Li Shaozhong in person.
After all, everyone wants to seize the initiative and cooperate with Li Shaozhong first. I am afraid that this rare opportunity will be snatched away by others.
Qian Zhuoli, the director of Haizhou Machine Tool Factory, was the first to come to see Li Shaozhong.
Qian Zhuoli also listened to what Lu Haifeng asked someone to bring to him, and learned that Li Shaozhong, who was currently in the limelight and powerful in Haizhou, wanted to find a machine tool factory for cooperation. He did not dare to waste any time and immediately came to find Li Shaozhong.
After Qian Zhuoli entered Li Shaozhong's office and introduced himself, Li Shaozhong was delighted. He hadn't expected the director of Haizhou Machine Tool Factory to come so soon after he'd released the news. It seemed many companies were having a tough time.
After Li Shaozhong and Qian Zhuoli shook hands and exchanged pleasantries, Qian Zhuoli got straight to the point. "Mr. Li, I heard you're looking for a machine tool factory to partner with? What do you think of our Haizhou Machine Tool Factory?"
Li Shaozhong didn't hide it. "To be honest with Director Qian, my original intention was to find a machine tool factory in Haizhou to cooperate with. If there is no suitable partner in Haizhou, I will look for factories in the surrounding areas. After all, our current work center is in Haizhou, and cooperating with companies nearby is also for convenience."
Upon hearing this, Qian Zhuoli immediately said, "Boss Li, our Haizhou Machine Tool Factory has great advantages."
Qian Zhuoli then gave a brief introduction to the Haizhou Machine Tool Factory. Li Shaozhong had also done some research on the factory and knew a bit about it.
Qian Zhuoli then said, "Boss Li, when you have time, I can take you to inspect it in person."
Li Shaozhong thought about his schedule for the past two days and said, "I have an appointment to discuss something today. I'll visit your factory tomorrow morning, so you can prepare."
Qian Zhuoli was very happy to see Li Shaozhong so happy. "Okay, Mr. Li, I will be waiting for you at the factory tomorrow."
Li Shaozhong said, "I will definitely be there on time."
After the two of them made an appointment, Qian Zhuoli hurried back to make preparations.
Afterwards, Li Shaozhong received Chen Zhongyi, the director of Yongjia Fertilizer Plant.
Yongjia Fertilizer Factory is located in Yongning City, not far from Haizhou. It is a relatively large fertilizer factory.
Although fertilizers are now easily sold once they are produced, their effectiveness and quality still need to be improved.
Although fertilizer plants are now key national development projects, there are too many people and too little resources, and funds are really limited. If you want to get more funds, you have to find ways yourself.
Li Shaozhong and his wife are the golden babies in the eyes of others. They not only have money, but also technology. Who wouldn't be tempted by them?
So whether they wanted to raise funds or wanted technology, they all flocked to Li Shaozhong to seek a chance.
Li Shaozhong really doesn't need to look for these partners himself, their partners come to him on their own initiative.
Li Shaozhong has been answering dozens of calls and receiving more than ten visitors every day these days. He is really busy.
