Chapter 374 Breaking all laws with one force
“Can scolding bring down Torch Group, or can scolding Zhang Xiaocheng, the general manager of Torch Group, kill him?”
Gu Ming looked at the private room of the tea house. A group of people seemed to be filled with indignation at this time, but in fact, it was obvious that there was nothing they could do against the Torch Group.
"Lao Gu, everyone came here today just to discuss a way out, otherwise we would just sit back and wait for death. You are the big brother in the industry, and it is up to you to come up with a charter!"
"Yes, Boss Gu, everyone listens to you. As long as you give the order, those of us who have money will contribute money and have the ability to contribute, and we will never make things easier for Torch Group!"
Someone in the box spoke, and the others also spoke one after another, claiming that they would follow Gu Ming's lead and listen to his orders.
Looking at the group of people in the box, Gu Ming sighed. Although he knew that this group of people were all in vain, he felt threatened this time when they gathered together, so he thought of joining forces to fight against the Torch Group. field.
But if this group of people had realized what they have today, instead of fighting among themselves on weekdays, and engaging in price wars desperately for a few cents of profit, there would be no place for the Torch Group in the lighter industry now.
If domestic lighter companies could unite, let alone the domestic lighter market, even the overseas lighter market would be able to push forward. How could they end up in today's situation.
In fact, Gu Ming also felt that his group of old lighter manufacturers were facing a decline. Even if the Torch Group did not appear, other lighter manufacturers would probably emerge to compete with them.
Overseas, domestic lighter manufacturers have been subject to anti-dumping investigations by commerce and trade departments in America, Europe and other places, and have been charged huge fines, tariffs, and even banned from selling locally.
As a result, Gu Ming and his lighter brand cannot be sold overseas. They can only rely on OEM for lighter manufacturers such as Nippon and America in exchange for income. They OEM for others and sell lighters to themselves. The income Almost a world of difference!
But even for OEM, Gu Ming and the other manufacturers in the box were fighting openly and secretly. In order to get more orders, they desperately lowered the price. In the end, they all got cheaper from overseas lighter manufacturers.
Gu Ming feels that even without the Torch Group, they, the old lighter manufacturers, would have killed themselves sooner or later. In the end, the market would either be taken away by overseas lighter manufacturers or replaced by other companies!
But knowing where the problem is and having the courage to solve it are two completely different concepts. What is now in front of Gu Ming and the others is that they may be kicked out of their jobs by the Torch Group!
After waving his hand, Gu Ming picked up the tea and took a sip, "You don't have to put your hat on me. If the Torch Group really controls the import and export share of lighters, my company may not be able to sell lighters, and you won't be much better off either. Go, we are all grasshoppers on the same rope, no one can escape at this level!”
“Boss Gu, we all know this, otherwise we wouldn’t be here. The people who are here today, Which company does not export hundreds of millions of lighters every year? If the Torch Group really seizes the right to export lighters, then we all will not be able to survive!"
Someone in the teahouse said, this time it is! It is related to the jobs of a large group of them. Before, they were just worried that the Torch Group would become their opponent, but as soon as the news about the Lighter Import and Export Association came out, what they had to consider was whether they would be strangled by the Torch Group. This is already a matter of life and death.
"Boss Gu, what is your plan? Just tell us. Here, it is Boss Gu who has the most superb methods. If you can't do anything, everyone will not be able to survive!"
“Yes, Boss Gu, we can’t hide it anymore at this time!”
"Lao Gu, how many years have we known each other? We will do whatever you say!"
Another burst of chatter came out. When Gu Ming heard the words, he also gritted his teeth and said, "The method is There are two, but we have to do it together!”
“The first one is to mobilize our respective relationships and connections to prohibit the entry of Torch Group’s products where our company is located. Express our attitude to the outside world!
Our company does not have as many people as the Torch Group, but we also need to eat, how can the Torch Group be overbearing and not let us eat?" Gu Ming said, “The second point, the most critical thing is the Lighter Import and Export Association. Everyone must unite and sign a letter to the city government and the Economic and Trade Commission.
This Lighter Import and Export Association must not fall into the hands of the Torch Group, otherwise everyone will have no way out in the future! ”
After hearing Gu Ming’s words, everyone started talking in low voices. Gu Ming’s meaning was very clear. Fighting alone, no company present is estimated to be an opponent of the Torch Group. Only by joining forces and launching Only with connections and resources can we have the opportunity to give it a try with the Torch Group.
After the discussion, everyone dispersed and prepared to do it according to Gu Ming's method. For a while, the entire lighter industry was noisy. Opposition to the Torch Group became even louder.
In the evening, Gu Ming, who was exhausted, came home from the company and had dinner with his family. While eating, Gu Ming chatted with his family from time to time. He glanced at the TV and watched today's news broadcast.
Gu Ming's net worth is not low now. He is still in the import and export business. He is much more sensitive to industry trends, so he naturally has to pay attention. Important news.
Most of the news was almost over, and Gu Ming had filled his belly a bit. When Gu Ming was still thinking about what he had to do after finishing the meal, the words "Hanxi" on the TV instantly attracted his attention. look.
“The largest lighter industrial park in Hanxi has been officially put into production. This is currently the largest lighter production base in China and Asia. The current maximum annual output value will exceed 1.5 billion yuan and can be provided Over 60,000 jobs
The Torch Industrial Park currently has a lighter industry chain cluster, with more than 170 lighter-related supporting and parts production companies, which can produce more than 200 accessories for the entire lighter, and industrial park parts. The collection of accessories from manufacturers can be completed within thirty minutes
The Torch Industrial Park currently has more than 328 inventions and patent applications, and has 21 exclusive patents such as high-temperature resistant materials and lighter safety locks, all of which are world leaders. Level.
The second phase of the Torch Industrial Park will be officially launched next year. Zhang Xiaocheng, general manager of the Torch Industrial Park and Torch Group, announced that in the future, the Torch Group will achieve the annual output value of 5 billion lighters and drive the GDP to exceed 7. More than one billion, providing more than 200,000 jobs..."
The news on TV was very brief, lasting less than 45 seconds in total, and the scene of the Torch Industrial Park flashed by.
But Gu Ming stared blankly at the TV. The news broadcast was from Xinwen Lianbo. When the Torch Group appeared on such news, Gu Ming no longer dared to think about what it meant. .
Gu Ming didn’t even think about boycotting the Torch Group or trying to fight with the Torch Group. In just a few dozen seconds, his clothes were soaked with sweat from his back.
Poof, Gu Ming stood up and almost fell down. He didn't care about anything else and rushed directly to the study. Gu Ming picked up the phone and called out.
When the other party connected, Gu Ming almost shouted, "Get that damn joint letter back from me!
Tomorrow morning, no, today, we will announce immediately that our company will move to Torch Industrial Park! ”
