Rebirth 1994: Starting from laid-off workers

Chapter 39



"That Factory Director Huang is really embarrassing. He ran away without even saying hello. His character is so bad!"

On the way back, Guo Yonggang scolded him while driving.

Zhang Jiaqiang said, "His Ludong market is over. His reputation for being untrustworthy has spread. Who dares to do business with him? Business information is very fluid and will spread to other places sooner or later. This kind of character and pattern are already destined. The ending!"

In fact, if Boss Huang is willing to admit defeat, it will be a good ending. At least he can use Zhang Jiaqiang's products to occupy other markets, which is a leap for his career.

Unfortunately, he missed the best opportunity and even went downhill because of it.

Guo Yonggang changed the subject and said, "Boss, they don't give you a penny. They have ordered so many goods and we have so much money to pay in advance. Is there really a gold mine in your home?"

Zhang Jiaqiang smiled and told him about Factory Director Yin's promise to provide raw materials first and settle the accounts at the end of the year.

The biggest low cost of a lighter is the raw material of the casing, and other small items account for very little of the cost.

Behind the scenes, there is a steady supply of materials from plastic factories, which is no different from a gold mine.

Furthermore, Zhang Jiaqiang can also use huge orders to negotiate with those hardware factories for delayed settlement and even lower costs.

In this way, he became a white wolf with nothing, and the only cost was the labor, water and electricity in the workshop.

After Guo Yonggang heard this, he was so impressed that he thought that this man was born to do business. It would be unreasonable for him not to get rich!

Today was a good start. Nearly 40 lighters were sold in one meal, with a gross profit of more than [-]. The only drawback is that the accounts cannot be settled until the end of the month.

However, if sales are good and these wholesalers restock, they must check out in advance to receive new goods.

If you are lucky, your profit will be more than [-] this month.

This is just the beginning!

Zhang Jiaqiang is confident that his explosion-proof lighter will beat all similar products on the market.

It won't be long before they can be sold all over the country, and even exported to earn foreign exchange.

At this time, he must not rest on his laurels. He has already begun to hatch a new plan.

First, we organized several old masters to set up a technology research and development department to improve the production process and develop new products, including extensions of disposable lighters, igniters, etc.

In addition, salespeople also need to transform, abandon those retail terminal vendors, and instead go to hotels, nightclubs, and large tobacco and alcohol manufacturers to sell customized lighters for brand promotion to them.

At present, this is still a blank. If it succeeds, it will be another huge profit growth point, which can even exceed the profits of wholesalers.

In the future, we will add production lines and even build a factory specializing in the production of lighters.

Zhang Jiaqiang wants to build the lighter factory into a pillar industry and foundation to protect other industries.

At the same time, the cable project should also be on the agenda!

After these two items are on track, probably by the end of next month, you should have sufficient funds in hand, just in time to catch another opportunity to make a fortune.

On July 30, [-], the official released three major pieces of good news, and the Shanghai stock market began to blow out on August [-].

In less than a month, the market surged from a low of more than 300 points to more than 1000 points, and many stocks multiplied several times.

The stock market has been sluggish until the end of July, which is a good time to buy stocks!

It's only mid-June now, so while you have some funds, you can open an account and open a position in advance!

Wang Xuefeng really kept his word. That afternoon, he had a check delivered and [-] lighters taken away.

This is the first big order since the lighters went offline. Although the wholesale price is only 70.00 cents per piece, the profit is over [-]%.

The profit of more than 7000 yuan made the whole workshop rejoice.

When Zhang Jiaqiang took out three more orders, the entire production line seemed to have been given a shot of stimulant.

The workers saw hope and a future, and they were full of energy. The wrinkles on the faces of the old masters were revealed, and they decided to work overtime to complete the orders.

Spiritual encouragement alone cannot last long, so Zhang Jiaqiang directly came to the rescue and paid each worker on the production line 100 yuan in overtime pay.

The masters Wang Aiguo and Liu Zhenxing worked hard and made great achievements, so each of them earned [-] yuan.

The workers, who had not been paid for several months, were very excited with the money in their hands, and some even cried.

They knew at this moment that they had made the right choice this time, and at the same time they were determined to continue doing it well.

In order to complete the order of more than 30 yuan as soon as possible, Wang Aiguo and the others discussed with Zhang Jiaqiang to transfer a few young people from those salesmen, and then divided them into three shifts to keep the machine running.

Zhang Jiaqiang was worried about damage caused by the heavy load on the machine, so he agreed to transfer a few people, but refused to work three shifts and only allowed a small night shift.

The morning shift is from [-] a.m. to [-] p.m., the evening shift is from [-] a.m. to [-] p.m., and the machines are allowed to rest from midnight to [-] a.m.

After arranging overtime work, Zhang Jiaqiang took the opportunity to announce the performance appraisal system and job responsibility system.

From then on, the wages of all workers are linked to their positions and performance. The more you work, the more you will get, and the more you pay, the more you will gain.

Things like cheating, skipping work, and dereliction of duty have been completely eliminated.

After hearing this, the workers not only did not object, but also agreed. They felt that this was fair, and they felt even more energetic!

Late nights in the summer are a little cooler than during the day.

On the empty street under the night wind, a taxi sped past and stopped at the entrance of a neon-lit nightclub.

The greeter stepped forward and opened the car door, and a wretched man came out.

This person is none other than Factory Manager Huang, who ran away in despair during the day.

Seeing the regular customers, the foreman hurried over to say hello, "Boss Huang, I've reserved the old room for you. Do you want to ask your old friend to come and stay with me?"

Factory Manager Huang had a sullen look on his face and said impatiently, "Give me a fresh one, one that is young and beautiful!"

"Okay, please come in and we'll arrange it right away..."

"If someone comes to see me soon, bring him over directly!"

"No problem, have fun!"

A moment after Director Huang sat down in the private room, a strong middle-aged man was led in.

"Haha, brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much!" Factory Director Huang said hello hurriedly as the gloom disappeared from his face.

The man looked around very warily, then sat on the sofa, picked up a bottle of beer, opened it, and took a big sip without using a cup.

"Boss Huang, just tell me if you have something to say, I can't hold things in my heart!"

Factory Manager Huang chuckled, moved closer to the man, and spoke in a low voice.

"I heard that I have many acquaintances on the road?"

The man rolled his eyes and placed the wine bottle heavily on the table, "Speak directly if you have something to say, don't beat around the bush!"

Factory Director Huang scratched his head in embarrassment and said with an apologetic smile, "That's what happened. My business was stolen by a local guy. I'm going to ask you to help..."

"This will cost a lot of money!" The man lit a cigarette and stared at Factory Manager Huang with squinted eyes.

Bang, a pile of hundred-dollar bills was thrown on the table!
