Chapter 500: One Level Higher
The visit to the Samsung chairman was chosen on the second night to show respect. The gifts were nothing else, but two top-grade Biluochun and a set of tea sets.
Koreans also drink tea, and they are very particular about it. However, most of them drink jasmine tea, and most of the top-grade tea is imported from China, after all, Korea does not produce a lot of tea.
The Li family lives in a manor in the suburbs. In Korea, a small country, having a manor is definitely a symbol of identity and status.
After getting off the car and handing the gift in his hand to the butler who greeted him, he walked into the living room and found that the chairman of Samsung was waiting for him. Yang Dongxu hurriedly took two steps and stretched out his hands: "Hello, Chairman Li, it's nice to meet you."
After Yang Dongxu finished speaking, Li Fuzhen also came over and helped him translate. Chairman Li shook hands with Yang Dongxu with a charitable smile on his face.
"My father said he was also happy to see you. He said that when he was your age, he was still a young child, but not as powerful as you are now." Li Fuzhen translated.
"Chairman Li, you are too kind." Yang Dongxu smiled modestly.
So several people came to the sofa in the living room and sat down. Because they just chatted about some family matters, they didn't ask for an interpreter. Li Fuzhen sat in the middle to act as an interpreter.
After chatting for a while, the housekeeper came over and said that it was time to eat, so the three of them got up and went to the restaurant. The food was very rich and very special.
Although the Li family did not have the rule of not talking while eating or sleeping, Li Fuzhen had to translate in the middle. So Yang Dongxu reduced the number of times he spoke, and occasionally he would praise the deliciousness of the food.
After dinner, several people returned to the living room to continue chatting. The content of this chat was much more direct than before. First of all, Chairman Li said very directly that he was optimistic about the economic development of the mainland, so he was ready to continue to increase investment in the mainland, which Yang Dongxu naturally welcomed.
Then he mentioned the idea of OEM for Samsung companies. The OEM was not only electronic products, but also some other parts. You know, Samsung is an international group across several industries, so there are too many places where it can be OEM.
Chairman Li was obviously very interested in OEM, so the two talked a lot about it. In the end, although he didn't say anything, Yang Dongxu knew that he was moved.
There is no boss who doesn't like to save costs while maintaining profitability and quality. Although the per capita wage in South Korea is still somewhat lower than that in Europe and the United States, it is also lower than that in Japan.
But it is much higher than that in China, coupled with the policy bias. If Samsung can realize the OEM of parts in China, it will definitely help them save nearly 30% of the cost.
Don't underestimate this 30%. 30% of 10 million is 3 million, and 30% of 1 billion is 300 million. This 300 million is definitely pure profit, because Yang Dongxu is very considerate to provide one-stop service.
Unlike later-generation OEM companies, later-generation OEM companies basically have no technology to show off. Therefore, even the production line of parts must be built and debugged by companies that place orders.
Yang Dongxu is different. He now has a lot of technology dug from Russia and has digested it. After further research and development, it is not the world's leading, but if it is just processing parts, it can definitely achieve an amazing quality pass rate.
So all Samsung has to do is simply place orders, and they don't have to ask about other things. At the same time, in addition to parts OEM, Yang Dongxu has launched an assembly OEM package.
That is to say, you can tell me what parts you need, and I will produce them for you. Then you can transport the core parts to the mainland factory, and I will assemble them for you there. Then you can find a transportation company to transport it, or I can even help you with the transportation. It is definitely a one-stop service.
Such OEM is rare, not to mention now, even in the future. Because in the future, you need to find a OEM company for OEM parts, and you need to find another one for assembly, so it is difficult to achieve one-stop service.
As they chatted, the two people couldn't help but talk about Hong Kong's housing prices. The game console market has now begun to show signs. It is certain that you can make money, but it's just a matter of how much you can make. And the reason why Yang Dongxu pulled Li Fuzhen to make game consoles is because he couldn't bear the housing prices in Hong Kong and wanted to find a helper, even if he didn't pay for it.
So since the two met, this question was naturally unavoidable. Yang Dongxu didn't hide anything and directly said that Hong Kong's real estate was a bit inflated. But he said resolutely that as long as Samsung entered the market, he would never lose money, and he was even willing to use the resort and land in Sanwan as collateral.
Sanwan is no longer the little fishing village that was not well-known a few years ago. It has been ranked among the top three tourist attractions in China. But it is definitely the best among the best when it comes to seaside vacation.
As a result, the prices of the seaside plots with good scenery in Sanwan have soared, which is very similar to the previous Hainan real estate bubble. However, compared with the bubble real estate that is passing the parcel, tourist attractions are relatively reliable.
Especially with the Sanwan Resort as a precedent and the previous real estate bubble as a warning. Although the price of Sanwan plots has soared, it is basically within the controllable range. This makes the gold content of the plots in Yang Dongxu's hands much higher.
Some time ago, many people from banks followed Sanwan Travel Agency, just to want Sanwan Travel Agency to borrow money from their banks to develop the money in their hands.
It doesn’t matter whether you make money or not, as long as you mortgage the money to the bank, then the bank will make money. Because even if Sanwan Travel Agency goes bankrupt, the mortgaged land is still appreciating in value.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that with the popularity of tourism in Sanwan, it is only a matter of time before the prosperity of Sanwan City, which was originally unknown, surpasses that of the provincial capital Haikou. As for the plots of land in the hands of Sanwan Travel Agency, they are all places that can be developed into tourist attractions. If we don't quickly ask them to mortgage such high-quality plots to the bank, how long will it take?
The two of them kept talking until he got up and left at three in the afternoon, and his flight to Yanjing at five in the afternoon. Dongzi came back from there, although he and Changhua had cut it cleanly without leaving any tail. But it also offended some people, so Yang Dongxu had to rush back to find out more.
Li Fujin took Yang Dongxu all the way to the airport. Originally, they were on the same flight ticket or sitting together in first class. But Chairman Li obviously had something to talk to his daughter, so she had to cancel the ticket and Yang Dongxu left alone.
"How do you feel about him?" After sending Yang Dongxu and Li Fujin back home, the housekeeper informed him that the president was waiting for her in the study. Before she could speak as soon as she entered the study, her father asked first.
"How about what?" Li Fuzhen looked at his father in confusion, obviously not understanding what his father meant for a while.
"My impression or evaluation of him." Seeing that his daughter's confusion was not fake, President Li breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it's not a relationship, that's fine. Although he and Yang Dongxu only had a brief chat during their meeting today. Many times the conversation is empty and does not lead to practical results.
But I have to say that for this young man who is very insightful and can often see the essence of things directly, his previous impression of the other party has somewhat changed. But when it comes to his daughter's marriage, he still prefers the young heroes of South Korea's chaebol. Yang Dongxu is excellent, but not good enough to let Princess Sanxing marry him.
"Very smart, very methodical and steady in doing things. He feels very mature and does not look like a young man consistent with his youth at all, and" Li Fujin paused and frowned.
"And what?"
"I can't say what it is specifically, but I have a feeling. The thing he proposed seems to be very beneficial to us at present, and it can really make a lot of money. But I always have a feeling that he will make more in the future. "It's like when we were studying bicycles, his eyes were already on cars," Li Fujin said.
She didn't feel this way for a day or two, or once or twice. She didn't pay much attention to it before, but as time went by, a woman's intuition forced her to pay attention to it.
But no matter how much she paid attention to Yang Dongxu, it seemed as if she was covered in a layer of fog that prevented her from seeing clearly. This made her sometimes wonder if there really was such a thing as genius in this world.
It's very rude to say that Li Fuzhen admits that there are people who are better than her in business, but they are one level better than her, or even higher, and they are younger than her. It's not that she is arrogant, no one really dares to be so confident. But with Yang Dongxu, she felt like he was surpassed and even higher. This made her sometimes wonder if she was delusional.
President Li was stunned for a moment when he heard his daughter's words. Others didn't know that his own daughter knew it. Li Fuzhen, who looks kind on the outside, has a stubborn heart. Even if he wants to hand over the company to his son, he has to give his daughter some shares.
The shares were given to her not because she was his daughter, but because she was his daughter and yet so outstanding. If she were a man, she would definitely be able to inherit his company.
Therefore, Yang Dongxu could not help but be a little surprised that his daughter praised him so much without the blind look of a girl in love.
"If you can't see the road ahead clearly, then walk on the path under your feet first. As long as the general direction is good, you may walk a little slower if you just look at your feet, but you won't go wrong." As a father, President Li used his own Experience, give your daughter some pointers.
"Okay, I understand, father." Li Fujin shook her head to get rid of the many confusions in her mind, and the many worries and fuzzy feelings that entangled her.
"Tell me about the situation of the company in mainland China. Although I have a summary report in my hand, I want to hear you explain it in detail. After all, the report is dead. If you don't go to that environment and just read the report, you will ignore a lot. detail."
"Okay father." Li Fuzhen nodded and sat opposite his father. He thought for a moment and then said: "Based on my management of the mainland company during this period and the advancement of the industry. I am very sure that the mainland is A fertile soil that has not yet been developed, if we sow a few seeds, we can reap rich rewards."
