Hao Yifan quickly returned to Hong Kong to arrange for the gang boss to go to Yanjing to meet Yang Dongxu. The fermentation of this matter has had too much impact on his business and must be resolved as soon as possible.
But what he didn't expect was that this matter would not be solved so easily. It was not Yang Dongxu who went back on his word. But the gang boss is unwilling to go to the mainland.
Are you kidding me? The recent crackdown is world-famous. Forty to fifty thousand people were shot. Not to mention whether there was any injustice involved. In short, if he, a gang leader, went to the mainland, he would definitely not be unjust if he was shot according to the laws of the mainland. .
So the gang boss asked Xiaoxu to come to Hong Kong to meet him, but he would definitely not go to the mainland. But now it is definitely not that easy for people from the mainland to come to Hong Kong unless they are government workers, so what was originally a noisy matter has turned into a quarrel.
Hao Yifan did what the gang boss ordered, but you didn't agree, so the gang had no legitimate reason to exploit him. The gangster said that Hao Yifan was deliberately trying to embarrass himself. How could someone of his caliber go to the mainland? So it was very lively with you coming and going.
Yang Dongxu also scratched his head after hearing Hao Yifan relay this incident. He didn't expect that things would turn out like this. However, the other party didn't want to come over, and he didn't plan to go to Hong Kong in the short term, so he just left the matter as it was. He wasn't in a hurry.
After the severe crackdown in 1982, society has stabilized. At the same time, the voices at the top seem to have made a decision and are about to come up with clear development goals. As a result, the entire environment is thriving.
Dongzi finally saw the huge profits from the home appliance industry. At the same time, the sales of televisions, tape recorders, electric fans and other electrical appliances also surpassed clothing. This made him admire Yang Dongxu once again.
It's just that there is always a follower behind, which makes me very unhappy. At the same time, the number of followers increased from one last year to three. That's right, there are already four clothing companies in Yanjing, and there are four large companies dealing in electrical appliances.
In addition to the five stores expanded by Wu Aibing and the three stores expanded by Dongzi in Dongcheng, there are two other stores owned by others. It is almost the same in Xicheng.
In the modern era when the economic tide has not yet been released, four companies operating the same business first felt the fierce competition among their peers. But fortunately, people doing business in this era have to respect their reputation, and there is no use of family connections or official connections to suppress and bully the weak.
It’s not that you don’t have this idea, but if you mention this matter to your family, you will definitely be beaten first. Yang Dongxu doesn't know whether officials are corrupt or not. Anyway, everyone cares about their reputation and is very scrupulous about doing things that harm the public and enrich themselves.
"What is that advertisement?" Wu Aibing looked at Yang Dongxu in confusion.
"It means to advertise widely. For example, those promotional posters, or reports on some products in newspapers are all advertisements." Yang Dongxu explained.
"Is that thing useful?" Wu Aibing didn't believe it.
Modern people's thinking is basically for convenience, and of course for cheapness. If there is a store selling TVs in front of your home, and the price is the same as in other stores, then you must buy it nearby.
Therefore, the four families who now run the same business are trying their best to open stores to occupy the market. As long as whoever opens more stores will naturally sell more things. There is no need for companies in later generations to establish a brand awareness.
"Of course it works. Look at the other three companies selling the same things as us, but we have been in newspapers and even on TV. So when someone comes to buy things, can you say that we are recognized by the country when you introduce them to them? ?
The quality is so good that it was even reported in newspapers and TV? So as a person who wants to buy something, do you believe more in what is reported in national newspapers and TV, or do you believe more in what people who are buying things say? Yang Dongxu asked rhetorically.
In this era, whether it is TV stations or newspapers, as well as the government's credibility, there is no doubt about it. So as long as they can advertise in newspapers, and of course, even better, they can advertise on TV, then they can seize the opportunity. market share.
At the same time, as the first person to eat crabs, while making huge profits, the cost is relatively low. Nowadays, when an article is published in a newspaper, the newspaper company must pay the author. So I don’t need much money to pay for advertising in newspapers.
In the same way, the advertisements on TV are just like the third one. They either praise the motherland, or report on state-owned enterprises or major breakthroughs in scientific research. These are all free and there are basically no commercial advertisements. So it doesn’t cost much to find the right one by yourself.
At first, Yang Dongxu didn't want to do too much business in clothing or electrical appliances. He just wanted to make money and leave as a second-rate dealer. Compared with these two industries, whether it is real estate, the future gaming industry, the entertainment industry, or even the Internet, they are much more promising than them.
Moreover, these latter industries have high barriers to entry. As long as you take the lead, you can lead step by step. Unlike the current clothing and electrical appliances, anyone can open a store as long as they want, leaving him, the first to go, to compete with the latecomers.
Hao Yifan's accident made Yang Dongxu realize that accidents will always happen. His idea of being a second-rate dealer and making money for a few years before retreating is a bit too optimistic. The impact on his subsequent plans was also quite large.
"How are the technologies we talked about before?" Yang Dongxu asked.
"I asked someone to inquire, and found that tape recorders, televisions, and electric fans are not easy to get. Tape production is easier. You can buy a production line directly, but it is very expensive at 200,000 yuan." Wu Aibing sighed.
Without contact, Wu Aibing, who originally thought that his country was really vast and rich in resources, and even still had these dreams of 'catching up with the United States and England', was really hit hard this time.
This is just the result of contact with businessmen in Hong Kong. If he really comes into contact with more developed countries like the United Kingdom and the United States, then he will not be hit, but directly KO.
"Is there only a production line for tapes?" Yang Dongxu was a little disappointed, but it was good to get something. Once the tapes were finished, he would still make money.
In this era, there is no concept of piracy in the mainland, and of course there are no genuine plots. So if you take out the same thing of similar quality, you will naturally buy the one that is cheaper.
Yang Dongxu is not noble enough to change the trend of copycats in later generations in China from the source. It’s not that he doesn’t want to do it, but that the trend is driven by the country’s acquiescence. Standing on the opposite side of the country, do you want to choose a novel way to die? ?
So since it can't be changed, it's natural to find a way to get involved. If others can make money, he can also make money, right?
"The tape production line is the tape production line. Have you decided who will go to Shenzhen?" Yang Dongxu raised his eyes and looked at Wu Aibing.
"I'll go. I want to go out and have a look." Wu Aibing is a little unsure, but the excitement of his recent contacts with Hong Kong businessmen has made him unable to live a step-by-step life, and he is eager to go out and see what the world is like.
His answer made Yang Dongxu a little surprised, because it was undoubtedly more appropriate to go to Dongzi to open up new channels. Wu Aibing was closer to him and stayed to look after his family, and it was easier for him to use it.
"Oh, you can go if you want. The phone will be installed at home in a few days. There are no restrictions like Yanjing to install a phone in Shenzhen. After the company handles it, install a phone and call back if anything happens." Although Yang Dongxu was surprised. Doesn't stop.
Instead, he agreed with Wu Aibing to go out and take a look. In fact, Wu Aibing was not a city defender. In other words, he struggled out of the life and death environment on the battlefield and was definitely not a stickler for rules.
The reason why he acted so stable and mature before was mainly because his mother was seriously ill and he needed to stay at home and be a dutiful son. Now that his mother's condition has improved under Old Man Xuan's care, his desire to go out and have a look can no longer be contained.
"There is news from Wan Shao." When Wu Aibing was preparing to pack up and set off, in a restaurant in Houhai, a young man with a flattering smile on his face hurried into a box.
There were a group of young people in their 20s sitting in the box, both men and women. The young man in the main seat was quite heroic. He was not wearing the lama pants that have become popular on the street, but a brand-name sportswear that is rare nowadays. shirt, looking particularly capable.
"Oh, what's going on?" Wan Jun put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at the person.
Wan Jun is the youngest son of the Wan family. He is considered the son of Secretary Wan. He is not a few years older than his eldest son who is already in high school.
Being the youngest and favored, and because his father held a high position, there was always no shortage of flatterers around him, so Wan Jun's life in Houhai could be said to be prosperous.
There are currently four clothing and electrical appliance businesses in Yanjing, one of which was founded by Wan Jun. However, the Wan family's tutoring is very strict, and children of this era are either those who spend their time on the street and are suppressed.
Or you are like Wan Jun, who is curious about new things and creates things on your own. Nowadays, not many officials' children think about how to use their family's influence to make money. On the contrary, if you give them the job of learning and operating a camera in a TV station and being exposed to novel things, they will be happy.
Therefore, the children of official families in this era are more curious about new things than making money by doing things with monsters and ghosts. In addition, the older generation of the family are very strict in discipline, and no one dares to cause trouble except for a few doting ones.
At the same time, the face of people working in the officialdom is very important. They are afraid of farmers poking their backs. Therefore, if your children cause any scandal, if my father at home says to break your legs, I will break your legs without any hesitation. Vague.
"Things are a bit strange. Although they are also opening a store, they don't seem to be in a hurry to sell things. Wu Aibing, who was originally in charge of the store, bought a ticket to go to the south tomorrow."
"Going to the south?" Wan Jun was stunned for a moment: "Looking for other goods?"
"I don't know, but they had frequent contacts with Hong Kong businessmen some time ago. Now they are anxious to go to the south and may have some plans."
