Chapter 36 Tongsheng Trading Company
Fan Wubing could understand his father's thoughts very well.
In fact, everyone hopes to firmly grasp the development of the situation in their own hands. For things that cannot be grasped, they also hope that it can develop in the direction they want. full of resistance or fear.
Fan Heng is in this situation now.
Fan Wubing didn't have any good way to solve this problem, he could only strengthen Fan Heng's confidence in himself through a lot of successful facts, other than that, there was really no good way.
Not long ago, Qiu Baohua came to the guest house, and he came by car. A GAZVolga24 sedan produced in 1978 was parked outside the guest house, attracting many children to watch.
The GAZVolga24 car is produced by the Russian Gorky Automobile Factory, which is what the Chinese often call "Volga". In the former Soviet Union era, buying a "Volga" brand car was a sign of personal success, and the leaders of Soviet Russia were also very fond of it. .
The development of "Volga" began in 1953. On October 10, 1956, with the assistance of the American Ford Company, the first batch of three GAZ-21 cars were born at the Gore Automobile Factory on the banks of the Volga River, and they were officially named after the mother river of the Soviet people. name.
Since then, the factory began mass production of "Volga" brand cars. In 1957, "Volga" began to be equipped with domestic engines. The following year, the car was unveiled at the Brussels International Industry Exhibition and won the top prize in one fell swoop. The evaluation of it at that time was: the body line is bold, the decoration is unique. In particular, the radiator grille called "shark mouth" and the chrome-plated deer-shaped car logo left a deep impression on the fans.
The GAZVolga24 driven by Qiu Baohua is a classic model of the "Volga" series. One hundred and forty-five kilometers per hour.
"This car is not bad!" Fan Wubing got into the car and found that Volga was comfortable to sit in. First of all, there was a lot of space.
Qiu Baohua looked very proud, and said to Fan Heng who was sitting in the back row, "Hehe, this is the company's car. I just drive it when I usually meet customers. How about it, is it okay?"
Fan Heng was worried that Fan Wubing was running around alone, so at the invitation of Qiu Baohua, he also went in the same car. Sitting in his GAZVolga24 car, he really felt that it was much better than the car he used to ride in. . Van Heng also sat on the Volga, but the model was much older.
To say that this car is not without its shortcomings, because of the climate, this car is not equipped with refrigeration and air conditioning, only heating equipment. But in a place like Guangzhou, the heating equipment is really useless. Although the car has a lot of space, in such a hot season, if the windows are not opened, the passengers inside will definitely not be able to stand it.
Of course, Fan Wubing didn't know exactly when air-conditioning technology was applied to cars on a large scale, and he hadn't seen related equipment in the cars he came into contact with in this era. There are only a few brands of cars in China, and they really can't change anything.
The speed of the car was not very fast, and it was obvious that Qiu Baohua's show-off mentality was at work. After Fan's father and son had a full view of the scenery on the streets of Guangzhou, they drove the car to the courtyard of Tongsheng Trading Company.
The companies at that time were different from the later ones. The streets were full of them. There was a sign on the road facing the street that was a certain company. At a glance, there were at least hundreds of companies. Strict administrative approval can only be established, and there are also very strict restrictions on operating projects. This market access system makes it impossible for operators with weak strength to establish their own companies, which also results in abundant market resources. The result of a monopoly in the hands of a few large companies.
Basically, this situation can be expressed by a formula, Power = Monopoly = Wealth.
The gate of Tongsheng Trading Company is quite grand. The iron gates are all in European style. A gilded sign hangs on one side of the gate, shining brightly under the sunlight. The office building is also a six-story cement building. It looks relatively new, and there are red banners hanging on the protruding eaves on the first floor, saying "Warmly welcome the superiors to visit" and other words.
The building is surrounded by green trees, lawns and flowering trees are scattered all over the place, and the continuous flowing water from the fountain makes the courtyard full of vitality.
"This company is quite impressive." After Fan Heng took a look, his worried mind immediately became much more stable. A company with such a big presence must be reliable.
Fan Wubing smiled and looked around with interest, but he was secretly vigilant in his heart. Since this company dared to smuggle cultural relics, it would not be a good deal. Their backgrounds are also very deep. I really don't know if I am right or wrong when I play the game of picking chestnuts from the fire with them.
Qiu Baohua introduced to Fan's father and son with a smile, "This building was put into use in the first half of last year. It looks quite new, right? In fact, our company's business is doing very well, not only here in Guangdong, but also in other places like Fujian and Guangxi. Over there, even in Hong Kong, there are branches."
"Oh, you also have business in Hong Kong?" Fan Heng asked curiously.
"Hehe, there is, but it's just small troubles. Our company is still rooted in the country." Qiu Baohua naturally wouldn't tell Fan Heng the background of his company casually, but just looked at Fan Wubing and saw He shook his head imperceptibly, knowing that there was also a secret between the father and son.
Since Fan Wubing did not hand over the foundation of his company, there is absolutely no need for Qiu Baohua to reveal this in front of Fan Heng. There should be some tacit understanding.
There are not too few employees in Tongsheng Company. There are about forty people here, all of whom look busy. It seems that they are different from those leather bag companies, and they still have a certain industrial foundation. Cultural relics smuggling This kind of thing is only done quietly under the cover of normal business.
Qiu Baohua welcomed Fan's father and son into his office, and Fan Wubing looked carefully at the metal nameplate hanging outside the door, on which the words "General Manager Assistant" were written.
