Chapter 696 Acquisition of a Mine
Even though they had always been very confident in Chen Changliu, their curiosity still made them ask.
"Boss, what countermeasures do you have? How come we don't know? Tell us!"
Looking at the two people who were very curious, Chen Changliu did not hide anything.
"In fact, when we invested a lot of R&D funds in the development of power lithium batteries, I thought about purchasing lithium mines ourselves in the future, and then being self-sufficient from the raw materials, so that we would not be affected by market fluctuations.
However, the funds were tight before, and the timing was not right, so it was not implemented.
However, when I started negotiating with Jingjiang again, I knew that the lithium mine had to be prepared in advance.
And Africa is the best place to supply raw materials. Not only are the minerals there rich, but they are also cheap.
Although the public security is more worrying, Zhongan Security's strength in Africa and the connections it has developed are enough to protect the mine.
So some time ago, I asked Lao Zeng and Zhao Er to start the investigation, and Lao Zeng has also flown to Africa.
This time I will use Zhongan Security to operate this matter. Although Zhongan Security does not have enough funds now, we don’t need much lithium mines now.
So Zhongan Security will first buy a small aluminum mining right after the loan, which is enough to supply the needs of the flower growers."
Chen Changliu's words made Ke Meng and Zhao Yanan look at him with admiration. There was no way, this man always saw farther than them.
Looking at the eyes of the two people, Chen Changliu felt very happy.
Three days later, Chen Yanfeng, the general manager of the African branch of the original flower family, rushed to Jingjiang. He was transferred to the automobile industry subsidiary as the general manager. It seemed that they were at the same level.
But Chen Yanfeng was not a fool. Of course, he could distinguish the weight of the general manager of the African branch and the general manager of the automobile industry subsidiary.
Although the level was the same, one was to develop the market. Although he was the general manager of a continent, he was still not as attractive as being responsible for an industry track of the company alone.
What's more, the automobile industry is a track that is more important than mobile phones not only in terms of scale but also in terms of technological content.
"Mr. Chen, Chen Yanfeng from the African branch reports to you!"
Chen Changliu smiled at Chen Yanfeng, who had not seen him for half a year and had become much darker.
"Sit down. Why are you so formal? You have worked hard.
You have completely changed from a little white face to a black charcoal head now."
Chen Yanfeng used to be not white and fat, but as a native of Shu, he was relatively white.
"Boss, it doesn't matter if I have some black spots. On the contrary, my charm is much stronger than before. You don't know how many girls want to marry me."
"Girls from Africa? Not bad, but be careful, there are a lot of AIDS there.
Also, you said your charm is stronger than before?
I dare say it's because your pockets are thicker than before, otherwise how handsome do you think you are with a black charcoal head?
Hahaha..."
Chen Yanfeng scratched his head and said speechlessly:
"Boss, can you not talk so realistically? Humph, charm is charm, no matter what the reason is.
You don't know that my ex-wife who despised me for having no money and ran away with a small boss a few years ago, I don't know how she knew I was rich and always wanted to reconcile with me.
Humph, am I such a superficial person? Without that tree, I found that the forest outside is very big..."
This time, Chen Changliu was speechless and waved his hand to stop his narcissism.
"Okay, okay, I won't care about that bullshit personal matter, as long as it doesn't affect work.
You know, we have just entered the automobile field, and to put it bluntly, the difficulty of domestic cars in the automobile field is much greater than that of domestic mobile phones in the mobile phone field.
After thinking about it, I finally decided to let you take the helm.
Mr. Wu and his team will keep an eye on the technical research and development, so you don't have to think too much about this.
There are no new products on the market now. The only thing we do is internal management, after-sales maintenance, and the tradition of our flower-growing family, which is to build our own supply chain system.
You must spend more time on internal management. After all, those who come from the establishment will have all kinds of bad habits.
I hope you can take effective actions, just like when you followed Mr. Feng to develop the African market. I want to see a complete change in 3 months.
And in terms of after-sales, I hope you can create the best after-sales service in the industry, not only first-class service, but also first-class technology..."
Chen Changliu and Chen Yanfeng talked for more than two hours. The two talked a lot. When Chen Yanfeng left, his expression was no longer as relaxed as when he came.
There was more solemn contemplation on his face, but there was fire burning in his eyes, that was his fighting spirit.
This was also the reason why Chen Changliu took a fancy to him. This guy had a fierceness, so he could lead the African branch to become stronger and bigger after Feng Xiao returned to the head office.
Ke Meng returned to Yangcheng on the third day after Chen Yanfeng came. She needed to go back to the headquarters.
After staying in Jingjiang for more than half a month, Chen Changliu had to prepare to return to Yangcheng because Du Zhiqiu and others were back.
For more than half a month, he spent all day in the R&D center, discussing some technical requirements with Pei Haidong and Wu Bo.
As I said, the efficiency of R&D with direction is much higher than that without direction.
And in more than half a month, he finally decided on the model of the first car of the flower-growing family.
Chen Changliu took out the exterior and interior design of the Qin in the future.
Of course, this was drawn from his memory. It was just a draft and needed a special designer to redesign it. But no matter what, such a design that was relatively mediocre in the future had already stunned Pei Haidong and other related people.
You have to know what the cars of this era were like. Anyway, in Chen Changliu's eyes, the cars of this era were ugly, and the mediocre Qin was much more beautiful than them.
Although Wu Bo was also full of admiration, he had experienced too many subversive product designs of Chen Changliu, so he was much calmer than Pei Haidong.
