Chapter 42 Father and Son Rivalry
As expected, after hearing that a Hong Kong businessman planned to launch a single-player machine project in China, and was willing to provide a large amount of start-up funds and carry out cooperation with the method of processing supplied materials, the leaders of the Pingyuan Factory held a prudent and conservative attitude. A 180-degree turn has taken place.
The director of the factory, Wang Fuming, has the most positive attitude, "This is a good thing. At present, we lack funds and advanced management methods. If we can successfully cooperate with Hong Kong companies, these two problems can be solved. At the same time, we can borrow chickens Laying eggs not only obtains certain benefits and solves the source of income for some employees, but also obtains new technologies in practice, and walks out of a new path of innovation and development! I think this matter should be supported!"
Lin Feng, Secretary of the Party Committee of the General Factory, also expressed his prudent agreement, "I think Director Wang's opinion is feasible. On this matter, your technical department should work harder to understand all aspects of this single-player, and form a plan earlier. Productivity. Since Mr. Fan mentioned this matter at the meeting last time, I deliberately went to find out. Now the Walkman is very popular abroad, and the market prospect is very good! We can seize this opportunity. , selling our products abroad is earning foreign exchange for the country, which is a good thing!"
The original chief engineer Ma Debiao took over the vacancy of Wang Dafu, the deputy factory director who was dismissed by Fan Wubing. For magnetic heads and circuit boards, we can produce a prototype within a month! Even if there is no ready-made thing, it needs technical research to do it ourselves, and it can be produced within half a year!"
Hearing this, Fan Heng immediately replied, "We have to discuss the specific situation with the other party carefully, but the funds are obviously guaranteed. The biggest problem now is to see if we can directly get Sony's magnetic heads and circuit boards. , it is much easier to produce the finished product.”
In the end, everyone reached a consensus at the meeting. Lin Feng said to Fan Heng, "Mr. Fan, you have been working so hard recently, put down other work first, and try to settle this project." After thinking for a while, he said, "For foreign capital, the state has always encouraged vigorous introduction and reasonable utilization. If we can successfully cooperate with Hong Kong businessmen, it can be regarded as responding to the country's call. However, when cooperating with Hong Kong capital, we must also pay attention to one problem, that is, the funds must be It must be implemented in place, and at the same time, everything that should be mentioned must be mentioned in the contract, and the details must not be overlooked. The success or failure of many things is determined by these details, and this cannot be ignored.”
"I will definitely pay attention to it. If there is any problem, I will discuss it at the meeting in time." Fan Heng nodded in agreement.
"Hehe, in terms of technology, you guys know more than me, so I don't worry." Lin Feng said with a smile.
In this way, the cooperation between Pingyuan Factory and Hong Kong capital has become a negotiation between Fan Heng and Fan Wubing.
The two of them hid in Fan Wubing's room and chatted about business, chattering with each other for a while, laughing and talking warmly for a while, and when there was a conflict, they even faced each other fiercely.
Of course, when it comes to making moves, Fan Wubing is naturally at a disadvantage, and Fan Heng can naturally hit him with two chisels, this is only right and proper. If Fan Wubing dared to fight back, it would be disobedience! Even if he possesses superb skills, is rich and powerful, has the ability to steer heaven and earth, and turn clouds and rain, but in front of Fan Heng, he still has to shrink back obediently and do his duty as that gray grandson, oh, he should be a good son.
"You rebellious boy is just a mess. Is there such a black-hearted businessman in the world?" Fan Heng pointed to a restriction on the draft contract and asked angrily, "All rights to sell products in mainland China and overseas According to you, we are just working for others, and the products we make are not used by ourselves, let alone sold for them! How can there be such a reason in this world?"
Fan Wubing rolled his eyes and said, "Father and son,
Settle accounts! The complete right to sell is an important basis for my investment. This is impossible to change. Either we will break up at once, or you can skip this article and read the terms below! "
Fan Heng frowned and looked down, then pointed to one of them and questioned, "This problem is more serious! Why don't you allow us to use our own manufacturer's name and trademark? Use your registered new trademark? The production company Also put your name on it? What is the reason for this?"
"This is the need for commercial hype! Do you think that in the current domestic environment, is it better to sell imported products or domestic products?" Fan Wubing retorted unceremoniously.
Fan Hen was immediately at a loss for words.
This is also the truth. After ten years of catastrophe in China, a lot of things are waiting to be done. The market that has just opened has ushered in many high-quality and cheap foreign brands. Compared with some domestic products with high quality and low prices, these things are easy to buy. It can occupy the psychological stronghold of the people. And some media irresponsibly claimed that the moon in foreign countries is rounder than that in China, which also caused a very serious admiration for foreigners. The early 1980s happened to be the hottest period for going abroad.
Fan Wubing and Fan Heng's father and son just watched the movie "Wrangler", which actually promotes the spirit of patriotism and insinuates the enthusiasm for going abroad blindly. Unfortunately, there is a very ironic result. They went abroad one after another, which really made people feel very speechless.
Fan Wubing's considerations undoubtedly took this into consideration. Patriotism is needed, but it is meaningless to take advantage of his own multiplied profits for a little fame. You must know that under the circumstances at that time, most developed countries did not have any positive publicity for mainland China. It seemed that China was synonymous with poverty and ignorance. If it is labeled domestically, even if it is a good product, it will be difficult to achieve satisfactory sales results abroad.
Therefore, Fan Wubing decided that no matter what, he had to control the issue of trademarks and titles in his own hands.
