Chapter 1911 Making Money First

Shanghai No. 2 Food Factory.

As a factory with a total of 3,000 employees including retired employees, it is already a large one.

Their 1,200 retired workers are actually not that many, but they are now the norm in many factories in Shanghai.

Why is Shanghai still more welcoming to intellectuals and young people?

Part of the reason is that the people of the previous generation are still old, and new blood is needed to bring these factories back to life.

But there's a problem.

When workers retire, they are retired, but their families are still there.

You can provide all kinds of retirement wages and subsidies, medical treatment and hospitalization and year-end benefits to others. You can't favor one thing over another. Otherwise, who will care about you after you retire?

Therefore, the burden on each factory is relatively heavy.

Of course, the current burden on factories is nothing.

In the future, the Shanghai Automobile Group will have 70,000 to 80,000 retired employees, who will almost eat up the huge profits they have earned. This is the heaviest burden.

Even if there are best-selling joint venture factories such as Audi, Volkswagen and Volkswagen, there will be nothing left at the end of the year. What kind of concept is this?

It’s no wonder they have obtained joint venture rights from so many big-name companies. If you don’t give them, what will happen to so many retired workers?

As the director of the No. 2 Food Factory who was transferred from an outside factory, he has been at the No. 2 Food Factory for five years. After slowly getting familiar with the environment, the first major thing Chen Xin did was to comply with the expectations of the workers and build 1,200 units. Fund raising housing.

Then he used 200 units to sell quotas and houses, which made up for the lack of funds and benefited all workers.

In this way, he gained users among the workers and established his prestige in the factory.

But Chen Xin not only wants to get these, he also wants to make the second food factory bigger and make it prosperous, so that he can show his ability.

But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't find a good idea.

Unexpectedly, just after the Spring Festival, I met Yin Jun, the world's richest man and a famous patriotic businessman, who came to his factory to visit his girlfriend's family.

This is a God-given opportunity!

Chen Xin hurried over and stalked him without any shame, and finally got something from Yin Jun.

That is the canned meat of 7-11, which supplies Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.

Food Factory No. 2 has two businesses.

The first one is to slaughter the pork every day and distribute it to the stalls of various supply and marketing cooperatives for sale.

The second one is to make canned elbows and canned meat with pickles and vegetables, and take them to Europe to earn foreign exchange.

Because the country requires the spirit of creating foreign exchange, the No. 2 Food Factory attaches great importance to the second canned food. Each can has a weight of 1 kilogram, and the annual shipment volume has reached 3 million cans.

The ex-factory price to foreign dealers is US$1 per can, and they earn millions of US dollars in foreign exchange every year.

At first glance, the normal exchange rate for 1 US dollar is only 6 RMB.

The pork belly, pork belly, and pickled vegetables used in the cans of your No. 2 Food Factory are one kilogram per can. No matter what, the material cost is 2 yuan.

In addition to the outer packaging tin can, water, electricity and other production costs, labor, etc., one can costs almost 4 yuan.

You also include the freight. The sea freight departs directly from Shanghai and the goods are unloaded at the port in Greece. The dealer is responsible for the rest. The average price of a can is more than one yuan or two, right?

When the expenses and sales are totaled, there is basically no profit at all, only a gross profit of 20 to 30 cents at most.

But the real account is not calculated this way.

All domestic expenses, including shipping to Greece, are in RMB.

The RMB is a currency that is only used by China. The control power is in the hands of China, and the currency is only circulated in China.

But the U.S. dollar is different. The U.S. dollar is the currency that can be used to buy things in any country. It is equivalent to gold.

One is money that can only be used by oneself, and the other is money that can be used anywhere in the world. Can these be the same?

To put it more bluntly, all the money in the country now is not much money, but every dollar earned is real money!

Not to mention the slight profit now, even if you lose money, you still have to sell it to earn foreign exchange!

Only by earning foreign exchange can we buy a lot of equipment and materials for the country to continue to develop the economy further.

Of course, they don't have a share in the foreign exchange earned, but it is a very honorable and important thing to achieve foreign exchange income.

On weekdays, the housekeepers above are more active in allocating funds to subordinate factories like this that are actively earning foreign exchange.

However, with the development of the times, rising prices and the pressure of building a house, Chen Xin deeply felt the heavy responsibility he shouldered.

The existing income can only be said to be maintenance. If we want to achieve major development, increase the wages and bonuses of the workers, and allow them to live in their own houses, the Second Food Factory is still far from being able to do so.

So he must develop new businesses and sales channels.

Yin Jun did not provide convenience fabric packaging business to Food Factory No. 2, which made Chen Xin regretful, but Chen Xin was interested in supplying cans for 7-11.

During this period, after active investigation and preparation, Chen Xin held several office meetings to discuss, just to brainstorm and find better ways to make more money from his new business.

Today is meeting time again.

In the previous meetings, except for Chen Xin, all the people present were middle-aged people in their forties or fifties. The opinions raised were not very realistic and did not satisfy Chen Xin, so today he specially called two production front-line workers The squad leader came over to hear what they had to say.

Sitting on the right side of Chen Xin are Zhao Guangzheng, the deputy director in charge of production, Li Jiaxiang, the deputy director in charge of finance, and Chu Xin, the deputy director in charge of logistics.

On his left are Zheng Jun, the deputy director in charge of factory affairs, Bai Yurun, the deputy director in charge of technology, Tang Chen, the second shift leader of the pork elbow canning workshop, and Jiang Ting, the first shift leader of the canned meat and vegetables workshop.

"Let's talk about how the production volume should be distributed and how much should be budgeted?" Chen Xin said at the beginning, "Please everyone must put forward good suggestions as soon as possible. After we discuss and approve them together, we can quickly We need to connect with 7-11 so that they can buy our products as soon as possible and export them to earn foreign exchange!”

"I said last time, and I still stick to my opinion this time." Zhao Guangzheng, the deputy director in charge of production, immediately said, "We must expand the production line, expand the production workshop, and create four workshops with an annual output of 3 million cans. !”

"I also agree with Director Zhao's opinion." Chu Xin, the deputy director in charge of logistics, expressed his support, "If we can create another miracle of 3 million US dollars per year, can't we ask the superior unit for more than a year?" A reward of 5 million yuan? With such a large sum of money, what else can’t we do? We will be able to build the second batch of houses next year! How many veteran workers are waiting!"

Li Jiaxiang, the deputy director in charge of finance, was the first to disagree with the two opinions. "One of you can expand your territory, and the other can spend money freely. Of course you agree! Don't you think about it for me?" Thinking about it? A total of 4 more workshops, at least 12 production lines, and so many skilled workers will need to be built. Where can I find money and people? Can I conjure it up?"

"Old Li, you are wrong. All difficulties can be solved. We are united as one, is there anything we can't solve?" Bai Yurun coughed lightly.

"Pooh!"

Li Jiaxiang spat, "If you can find the money, I will figure out a way for the production line and people myself, and I will ensure that it meets your wishes! Otherwise, don't even think about it, the financial department will not be able to contribute a penny!"

"Comrade Li, you are too narrow-minded! Too negative!" Chu Xin accused with a bit of sadness.

Facing his exaggerated expression, Li Jiaxiang turned a blind eye.

Chen Xin had no intention of breaking up the fight, and Zheng Jun, the only deputy director who did not speak, just watched.

Because despite their quarrels, in fact, except for Chen Xin, all of them have worked together for more than 30 years.

Although they have some minor conflicts on weekdays, overall they are still good friends. They often play basketball together after work, and when they get older, they switch to table tennis.

How could such a relationship fall out?

However, Chen Xin somewhat understood that these old guys were setting questions for themselves.

Everyone definitely wants to do this business.

A business that can earn foreign exchange is a good business, and only idiots don’t want to do it.

And this 7-11 is still Yin Jun’s industry.

Who is Yin Jun?

There is no more patriotic Chinese or overseas Chinese in the world than him.

When doing business with him, you don't have to worry about payment issues or other problems.

Basically, as long as an agreement is reached and high-quality goods are delivered, they will never default on the goods and the price will be good.

Look, with such a huge benefit, which factory and unit in China doesn't want to do business with Yin Jun?

Of course the No. 2 Food Factory really wanted to do it. Not only the leaders at the top, but also the workers at the bottom had long been unsettled. They were asking all day long, when will we expand production, and when will we be able to earn more foreign exchange? Repair the house early?

no way.

When we were discussing at Lijia that day, not only were people from Lijia there, but there were also many workers watching the excitement surrounding the door outside.

With such great news, how could they hide their words?

Without even waiting for the next day, the entire factory knew that Yin Jun had agreed to cooperate with the No. 2 Food Factory.

The next morning, the superior in charge of light industry called Chen Xin's office and asked him to report on this aspect.

After asking him about the situation, the leaders asked him to "hurry up and do it quickly". It would be a great achievement to make the plan earlier and be able to export and earn foreign exchange earlier.

After coming back, Chen Xin was thinking about it and having a meeting.

He also wants to get it done as soon as possible, but look at this group of cunning people in front of him!

It’s really hard to do well!
