This time the loan was carried out in the name of the newly registered Prali Company, and the people in charge were the newly appointed company general manager Cross and financial manager Bianchi Marino Rosa, who were the original factory director and accountant.
The banks that the city of Cordoba received policy loans this time were the National Bank of Argentina and the Industrial Bank of Argentina. Not only did the central government subsidize the interest, but there was also additional credit support. For convenience, national banks were mainly responsible.
According to the plan, Saint-Jesse formulated a series of plans and plans such as production reports, future production plans for the factory, and the use of loan funds.
At the same time, they also contacted a small newspaper to test the waters. A newspaper that publishes Cordoba Economic and Commercial News asked them to take photos, including some old men with white beards wearing protective clothing and glasses.
I went to the university biology laboratory of the University of Science and Technology to take test tubes, etc., and used advertising terms written by Saint Jose himself. I could exaggerate and brag as much as I wanted. Unexpectedly, the effect turned out to be very good, so Saint Jose was not polite.
So we worked hard and made a special report to introduce Prali Food and Beverage Company.
Applying the techniques of later generations, I concocted a specious professional paper, at least on the surface, using a large amount of real and detailed information, but it can draw some civil science opinions.
Including some basic terms that are believed to be of later generations, boasting that this is a new technology that can win the Nobel Prize, a national beverage laboratory,
One small newspaper was not enough, so I found several newspapers with huge circulation and directly placed advertisements for reprinting. The popularity in the city skyrocketed.
If it weren't for the small words "advertising page" in the lower right corner that betrayed his true identity, St. Jose almost believed it until the end, and it even spread outside the city.
All of a sudden, everyone in the entire urban area knew that there was an "ancient" food and beverage company in this city, a world leader in "biotechnology", "advanced technology", American technology in the Prali factory on time, domestic research and development, and one of the noble bloodlines. Kind of like, crazy side kicks, unparalleled in the limelight.
Because it was a bit inappropriate to handwrite the first draft and there was no typewriter at home, Saint-Jesse went to Cross's house. Cross' house had a special typewriter with very large letters and was said to be from Germany.
I asked him to get all the proposed reports up, and it took him two days to prepare a complete report. I also made several copies of it, which contained detailed information and professional planning.
After this professional report was drawn up, it was shown to two of his subordinates. Cross read it carefully and prepared his words. This time Saint Jose was not going to take action on his own. In addition to his identity as a Gaucho, he was also related to Saint Jose. The warrant officer was related, and the three of them also held a meeting.
In the small conference room, on the left is the smartly dressed Hassoun Rosa, who is the relative introduced by Hahn last time. She has thick brown hair, green eyes, thin lips, a straight and beautiful nose, and is thirty years old. Hang zero,
She looks mature, stable, and charming. She graduated from the Economics Department of the National University of Cordoba. After graduation, she worked as an accountant for two years. Then she married her rich boyfriend. After the marriage, she gave birth to two children in succession. However, the scumbag found her. Married a mistress, got divorced again,
After the divorce, I received a large amount of savings and a house, but without any continuous financial income, I continued to look for a job again.
However, due to various reasons such as experience and work experience, Rosa was not able to find a good company.
It happened that the St. Jose Cannery Factory was short of a financial officer, and the cannery was relatively remote, and there were some financial requirements. Rosa just fit the requirements, so she was recruited.
The work arranged by St. Jose is also relatively flexible. One of Rosa's two children goes to kindergarten, and the other is taken care of by a servant at home.
Cross and Rosa were looking through the information prepared by Saint Jose carefully and taking notes from time to time. They were very engaged.
While waiting quietly, Saint-Jesse also looked through it to see if there were any errors or omissions or if any modifications were needed.
The future plan of the fifth part includes purchasing production equipment to produce canned meat. This is easy to understand. The country exports beef, but rarely produces canned beef.
However, it imports foreign cans. The import substitution plan of the First Five-Year Plan has this purpose. It uses domestically produced products to replace imported goods. It aims to raise 100 billion pesos in five years, which is equivalent to a capital investment of 2 billion US dollars, which is quite considerable.
The top priority is to expand the production line of Soda Factory No. 2 to produce fruit-flavored sodas, transparent carbonated drinks, iced black tea, fruit-flavored beer, milk tea drinks, coffee drinks, etc.
They are all famous beverage varieties in St. Jose in later generations when supplies were abundant. This aspect will occupy at least 30% of the funds, which is about at least 80 million pesos, about 1.6 million US dollars.
The third one is about outer packaging equipment. The packaging required for the three major categories of products is mainly glass jars, glass bottles, and iron cans.
However, except for a state-owned glass bottle factory and a small steel factory, the most important plastic bottles are still unknown, which will greatly limit the development and growth of beverage and soda factories.
Therefore, the future goal of San Jose is to establish a small chemical plant to produce plastic ethylene raw materials, produce plastic bottles for beverages, and let plastic bottles dominate in the future.
The funds and cooperation involved in this aspect will not only be banks, but also the newly established National Petroleum Company of Argentina.
Petroleum Argentina can produce equipment for chemical plants, which is good news.
The first batch of funds involved will reach more than 90 million pesos, which is approximately 4.5 million U.S. dollars. This is also the most difficult part.
"Boss, the first and second ones are fine, but do you really need the third loan target? We produce plastic bottles ourselves. These cannot be used for drinking, right?" Rosa raised her hand to ask, looking at San Jose seriously.
"It is very necessary. Currently, domestic oil companies are recruiting partners. I have a technical formula for the production of plastic bottles in my hand,"
"Although glass bottles are good, they are inconvenient to carry and the cost is actually quite high. After large-scale production of plastic bottles, the cost will be much lower than the cost of glass bottles."
"Actually, if possible, we can build an aluminum ingot smelting plant next to the New La Plata Hydropower Station in the future to produce cans. That would be amazing."
"What is a can boss?"
"It's a thinner aluminum can that can hold soda. This is a German technology..." St. Hesse said vaguely. Yes, the can has not been invented yet.
"The current iron cans are produced by the Belleville Steel Plant. I don't know if that factory can produce 100,000 tons of steel a year. It also has to go to the Cologne Forging Plant to make the can boxes. The cost is also quite high."
At this point, Saint Jose, in addition to being powerless, also has a greater desire for a complete industrial system in a country.
A great country must have at least an aluminum company with an annual output of 5 million tons, and a steel complex with an annual output of 20 million tons, in order to develop a strong shipyard and automobile factory.
Just by selling oil, you can only gain a temporary amount of wealth, and the wealth gap between the rich and the poor is huge. Just like Venezuela in later generations, it was an empty shell built solely on oil.
However, those in power are short-sighted and resource cursed. What is doing well is the small country of the United Arab Emirates, Dubai, which relies on the first pot of gold from oil to develop international trade and technology. It can continue to develop after Dubai's oil depletes. Of course, it cannot do without Financial backing from the Emirate of Khalifa.
Today, Argentina's National Petroleum Company occupies the entire domestic market, but it relies on exporting crude oil in exchange for pounds sterling in the UK. This is a huge waste!
Saint-Jesse said it wanted to produce plastic bottles independently, and it also coveted the cake of this chemical industry. The interests of exporting crude oil were occupied by others, and the petrochemical industry can produce many chemical products, such as plastic products, organic chemicals, and inorganic chemicals. Rubber and fiber can drive a large number of industries. This is a century-old plan.
"In the future, we will need to provide supporting equipment. It is not enough to purchase and import from outside. We have to produce it ourselves."
"It's not a good feeling to be grabbed by someone else's neck. Although we are just a small factory now, our future is to sell our products all over the world. Therefore, it is very necessary to reduce production costs. We need to take loans to build a petrochemical plant, and then Then it became very necessary to set up a plastic bottle factory.”
"You know, Germany during World War II had more than 200 Coca-Cola processing plants."
"30 million bottles of soda have been sold in a few years. Even if the cost of a bottle is saved by 10 cents, there will be an additional profit of 3 million yuan. It is very necessary to promote the implementation of this," Saint Jose took a sip of water and continued.
Of course, St. Hesse is not just for food and beverage companies, but also to enter a new industry through this and develop promising industries, such as coal chemical industry, fertilizer industry, etc.
The first pot of gold has been saved, and the next step is to continue to do things. Chemical plants will be built, steel plants will be built, and even aluminum plants will be built in the future.
The two continued to ask questions, and Saint Jose answered them one by one, and gave a deeper explanation.
…
The two also made an appointment with a bank. There were two banks in total. The Commercial Bank of Cordoba provided a low-interest loan of 30 million pesos. This was because San Jose established its settlement and corporate accounts in this bank.
The funds were mainly used for the expansion of the soda plant. As for the plan for the meat cannery, the plan was rejected on the grounds that a company in the city already had a loan of 40 million for the production of canned meat, and the city government did not want vicious competition.
The National Bank of Argentina has strong funds and provided a total of 60 million pesos in loans. It also rejected the canned meat production plan on the grounds that profits were low, it was difficult to repay the capital, and there was a risk of bad debts, which might cause difficulties for the company.
The president of the bank was very interested in the plastic bottle factory and invited professionals to evaluate the feasibility of the plastic bottle factory. He also called the Ayou office stationed here and finally determined that the plan was very feasible.
At the same time, this loan also alarmed the municipal government. This professional report was submitted to the mayor's office, which was greatly appreciated by the mayor. It was directly listed as a key development project when it was approved by the municipal government.
However, there is a prerequisite for the loan. If this new chemical plastics factory cannot repay the loan by then, it will be completely taken back and auctioned. This is also a precondition. The municipal government will provide the land, equipment channels, and approval for the construction of the new factory. Convenience and more.
Although Saint Jose is very unhappy with the city government taking advantage of the situation, he has no money now, so he can only accept it. And with the endorsement of the city government, the development of the plastic bottle factory should be much faster.
San Jose's information and planning are currently the most professional among the bank presidents, and the current monthly sales volume of the cannery is close to three million pesos. This is why the National Bank carefully reviews the loan. As for the most important reason,
It was Saint Hesela who got involved with Klein's family for investment and endorsement, as well as bank statements, and the care of some people in the city. After all, Cordoba is still a humane society now, since this Prali cannery sells enough , the data is the most authentic, there are people taking care of it, and the risk of bad debts is the lowest, so why not agree to the loan.
Of course, in the end, the two of them had arduous negotiations with the National Bank, bargaining and wrangling, and finally matched up with one against ten. They also alarmed the city hall, and finally finalized a loan of 90 million pesos from the two banks, which is about 1.6 million US dollars, accounting for This time Cordoba's 2 billion low-interest loan funds accounted for 4.5%, which is quite an astonishing proportion.
Saint Jose's plastic bottle factory will be set up in a town outside the city. Railway transportation is more convenient and will not cause pollution in the city. Saint Jose is also preparing to set up a plastic factory to provide raw materials for the subsequent production of beverage bottles.
Cordoba has indeed received a new development period through this financial support.
The annual interest rate of this batch of loans issued by the Argentine central government is not high. President Bilon personally signed the bill. It involves 23 provinces and one capital city in the country. If it is a locally established enterprise of a certain scale, it will be very advantageous.
St. Jose was one of the first to take advantage of the situation. Of course, St. Jose also used some small means, and the stimulus effect of this batch of loans was also quite significant.
Of course, funds can only be used for special procurement of equipment to expand production, and can only be used for a petrochemical equipment company, for import substitution by domestic companies, and cannot be used for any other purpose.
When these two loans were finally signed, Saint-Jesse finally breathed a sigh of relief. This will be a thrilling leap. If it succeeds, it will accelerate its development, but if it fails, it will be shattered.
The next step is to find someone to cooperate with the laboratory to test the food-grade plastic bottle process. With a little experience from St. Jose, it will be very simple.
