Global Trade's assistance to Brazilian small and medium-sized enterprises is of course not free. The cooperation method is very flexible, and joint ventures can be established to build factories. Investors provide money, and Global Trading provides projects, plans and management.
Generally speaking, Global Trade in this kind of project will occupy more than 30% of the shares.
This ratio is considered an acceptable ratio for most entrepreneurs in Brazil who are interested in entering the industrial manufacturing field.
The other form is a completely chargeable form, where the entire process is split and each item is charged.
For example, if you don't know what industry you want to work in, you can ask a professional consultant to provide you with advice, which requires payment.
When purchasing equipment through Global Trading, Global Trading's quotations will be higher than those of other companies.
However, Global Trading's complete after-sales service is unmatched by other companies. It will teach your workers step by step to produce qualified products.
If the company needs skills training, Global Trading can also provide it.
In short, to run a business, look for Global. It has become the consensus of Brazilian small and medium-sized businessmen.
At first, Fang Lang arranged for Mr. Redondo to start this business, which was also to quickly build a group of small and medium-sized enterprises in Brazil and improve Brazil's industrial base.
I didn't expect it to be so successful.
"Boss, nice to meet you."
Redondo has not changed at all, his figure is still the same tall and thin figure, but his spirit looks very confident. Maybe this is the effect of giving lectures to others frequently!
Fang Lang pointed to the stool next to him, motioned for Redondo to sit down, handed him a cigar and said:
"Mr. Redondo, I have two things for you to do."
I don't know if it was because of the reason he spread the news last time that Redondo was a little afraid of the young boss in front of him.
When he heard that his boss had something to do for him, he quickly sat down and said:
"Please give me your orders!"
Seeing Redondo's appearance, Fang Lang revealed a kind smile and said:
"Don't be nervous, this matter is very simple. I should have asked my assistant to do it, but considering that you are more familiar with the situation here in Rio, I asked you to do it."
Redondo's expression remained unchanged and he said seriously:
"It is my honor to serve the boss. Please give me your orders and I will get it done for you immediately."
"The thing is very simple. The first thing is that I may have to come to Rio de Janeiro often in the future, and I want you to help me find a house with a beautiful environment here.
The environment should be good, preferably by the sea; the building area should be large enough, because I may often need to entertain guests; and it should be a safe and private location.
If there is no suitable place, we buy a place and we build it ourselves. "
In fact, it doesn't matter if Fang Lang doesn't buy a house. After all, the military can reimburse the hotel he stays in every time he comes to Rio.
However, after spending a night in a luxurious manor yesterday, Fang Lang felt that it would be more interesting to have a large manor of his own.
He is not short of money, and would be more comfortable living in his own home.
After listening to Fang Lang's words, Redondo pondered for a while, then his eyes lit up and he said:
"Boss, I know there is a place that perfectly suits your requirements, but it may be a little far away from the city. However, there is absolutely no need to worry about safety.
At the foot of a mountain not far from the Rio Naval Base, there is a luxurious manor from the Brazilian Empire. The architectural style is Baroque and the area is very large.
As far as I know, the mountains behind the manor belong to this manor. The gate of the manor is about five kilometers away from the naval base.
There is a small yacht marina on the seaside, and there are about three kilometers of white sand beach on the seaside.
The specific owner of this manor will only be known after investigation, but as far as I know, no one has lived in this manor for a long time.
There are only a few workers who are responsible for taking care of the manor's health. There are also some farmers on the back mountain who often go up there to work. "
"Oh! It's not far from the hotel where we are now.
How far is it? "
"No more than twenty kilometers."
"Come on, let's go take a look."
After hearing Redondo's description, Fang Lang couldn't wait. This was the first property he bought.
Under the protection of the guards, the two took a car to the place Redondo said.
"Redondo, I heard that the consulting business you are doing now is very popular! You have great influence among Brazilian businessmen!"
On the way, Fang Lang asked about some of Lei Dongduo's company's business situations, although the assistant would compile a report on these situations to him.
However, there is still no clear communication and understanding with the main person in charge.
"Yes, boss, we have now supported nearly 20 medium-sized companies in Rio with an investment of nearly one million US dollars, and more than 60 small companies with an investment of less than 100,000 US dollars.
This number is growing every day. "
Speaking of his work, Redondo is also very proud.
"Oh! How many of them do we have shares in?"
"We hold shares in eight medium-sized companies and 42 small companies."
This number stunned Fang Lang. It was not that the number was small, but that Fang Lang felt that the number was too much. If Global Trade continued to manage it, problems might arise.
After thinking for a moment, Fang Lang said:
"Mr. Redondo, what do you think of our consulting project?"
"Boss, this is definitely a genius idea."
"I want to separate this project and set up an investment consulting company. Are you interested in becoming a CEO?"
Redondo obviously did not expect that Fang Lang would suddenly have such an idea, but he soon felt relieved.
After all, it is indeed easy for current trading companies to get confused when doing this business. After recently focusing on this aspect, many of the original businesses have been unable to be taken care of.
After thinking seriously for a while, Redondo asked:
"Boss, what are the specific charters of this investment consulting company? How big is it?"
"This is an idea that I just came up with. Initially, I am planning to establish a new company jointly with the Brazilian Development Bank and Global Trade Brazil Branch.
The company's main business is investment consulting, which is what we are doing now, but I hope to be more detailed and professional.
A special asset management company will also be established under this company to be responsible for managing the situation of the joint-stock company.
If companies do well in the later stage, we can even help them go public. In this case, our investment consulting company will be very promising. "
In fact, there are many such companies in later generations, and they are an important part of the financial industry.
The business scope of investment consulting companies generally includes: investment consulting, investment management, asset management, venture capital, industrial investment, marketing planning, corporate image planning, business consulting, corporate management consulting, intellectual property agency, etc.
For example, the famous McKinsey, Accenture, Deloitte, Bain and so on.
Of course, these companies have begun to appear in this era, so Fang Lang's idea is not actually creative.
Fang Lang's words obviously moved Lei Dongduo. He is an American and understands how much profit a company will make if it goes public. The prospects of such a company are even greater than global trade.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and said:
"Boss, I am very happy to work in this new company."
Fang Lang originally thought that Redondo would go back and think about it, but unexpectedly he agreed directly, patted him on the shoulder and said:
"A very wise choice! I believe you won't regret it."
Of course, Redondo will be directly responsible for the rest of the matter. Fang Lang does not need to be too involved. He only needs to notify the Brazilian Development Bank to arrange for personnel to participate.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the manor Redondo mentioned.
Because the gate of the manor was locked, we had to get out of the car and go around the beach to enter the manor.
Lang could see the manor from a distance. It was a building with at least two hundred years of history. The entire exterior wall of the building was carved from marble.
From a distance, it looks like it has an extremely luxurious feel. The building is three stories high, with a front width of more than 100 meters. The specific depth cannot be seen clearly.
There are two rows of long marble sculptures on both sides of the main entrance, which are full of artistic flavor.
The white marble has traces of erosion over time and looks a bit mottled.
The entire building looks as luxurious as a palace under the sunlight.
Fang Lang's first feeling was that it was too high-profile and not suitable for him to live in.
However, the second thing Fang Lang originally wanted Lei Dong to do was to find a place to build a naval club as a place for important officials from the military and political circles to exchange feelings.
This place is obviously very suitable!
After walking along the beach for a while, we could see the side of the building from a distance.
At this moment, Fang Lang was only deeply shocked. He looked at Redondo next to him and said:
"This can't be the palace of Pedro I!"
"Huh? This probably isn't it. I didn't ask who it was specifically."
Redondo obviously did not know specifically who the owner of this building was, but Colonel Teach should know.
However, Fang Lang was not prepared to let Colonel Teach handle this matter. After establishing a club here in the future, he did not want people to know that he was the owner of the club.
"You said all the land around here belongs to this manor, right?"
"Yes, boss!"
"Leave it to you. Find the owner and buy it. But this place is too luxurious. It's not bad to run as a hotel. But it's too luxurious to live in. There are at least nearly two hundred rooms here."
Seeing that the boss was satisfied with this place, Redondo was relieved. As for whether he could buy it, he was not worried. After all, as long as the money is available, what can't be bought?
"Okay, boss. What about your manor?"
"The environment here is very good. Find another piece of land nearby. Then I will build a Su family garden here."
In Fang Lang's mind, he still prefers Chinese-style buildings, especially the pavilions and pavilions in Su's Garden. Fang Lang really has a special liking for them.
Especially when I think about being in the pavilion, with a Kung Fu tea set and a small red clay stove to boil water for tea, I feel relaxed and extremely comfortable.
More importantly, it can bring some Chinese elements to Brazil, so that Brazilians will subconsciously start to like this style.
"Su's Garden?" Redondo had a question mark on his face, obviously touching on his knowledge blind spot.
Fang Lang smiled and said:
"You only need to buy a five- to six-hectare piece of land nearby, and I will arrange for specialized masters to come and build it."
Think of the huge redwoods in the Brazilian Amazon jungle, which are a perfect match for Su's garden.
Seeing that Fang Lang had made his decision, Redondo said no more.
