Chapter 54 Hongxing Plastic Factory
Zhao Liming said: "I asked several companies and their quotations were relatively expensive. Later, I invited a purchaser to dinner and I found out the reason.
The first is because Hong Kong's wood comes from the mainland, but the mainland's exports have changed recently. The export of wood has become much less, and the price of wood has become more expensive.
There is also the demand for our wood boards, which has always been high. There is no other similar thing, and many wood board factories are not even willing to take orders. If I hadn't said that the orders would be huge in the future, they might have ignored me."
"Well..." Yang Wendong naturally knew what to say. Well, starting this year, food prices will rise not only in the mainland, but also in Hong Kong.
Su Yiyi also said: "Brother Dong, I have also investigated. There are several injection molding factories near us. Now it is imperative to replace wooden boards with plastic.
Otherwise, find it here at Liming Without a stable or cheap wood board supplier, our sticky mouse board cannot be officially mass-produced."
"Well, okay, I'll go take a look later." Yang Wendong nodded. Said: "Wood is more expensive, so let's make it more expensive first. If we order 5,000 boards first, we will just make less money first.
Plastic materials are low-cost, but the preparation time for the early mold is also quite long. Yes, we need to wait.”
In the past, my sticky mouse board was only for my own use. Even if the rodent eradication task at Wharf Wharf involved selling it to Wang Zhixian, it would not make much difference in nature.
But now that they are all ready to be officially launched, they must be unified, whether they are wooden boards or plastic boards.
Of course, cardboard is actually better, but there is no such industry in Hong Kong, and there is very little cardboard. Transportation in this era mainly relies on wooden boxes.
Zhao Liming nodded and agreed: "Okay."
"Okay, everyone does their own thing." Yang Wendong added: "Yiyi, let's go together and bring my business card."
He didn't contact the injection molding factory earlier, mainly because he didn't have a factory, so he went to discuss cooperation with other plastic factories. They would most likely want to see whether you have the ability to guarantee business operations, especially to confirm whether it is Here comes a liar.
In fact, many times, even when doing business in Hong Kong, involving people you don't know, you need the guarantee of an intermediary, either another merchant, a lawyer, or someone with a reputation.
Of course, if you are rich enough and just throw money in cash, that's fine, but that's not how business works. Besides, Yang Wendong really didn't have that much money before.
Although Changxing Company's factory is a little remote, there are still several small factories nearby, including an injection molding factory.
In Hong Kong in 1958, the foundation of the manufacturing industry was metal processing, low-end textile industry and low-end plastic processing industry, which was similar to the mainland in the 1980s, relying on low labor costs and a large amount of literacy People are doing the most basic OEM work.
The two arrived at the place very quickly, and the straight-line distance was actually less than one kilometer.
Su Yiyi looked at the dirty white wall in front of her, with the words Hongxing Plastic Factory crookedly written on it, and asked: "Brother Dong, this looks very unreliable."
After studying with Yang Wendong for nearly half a year, her spoken English began to have some cultural taste, unlike before when she could not even speak a simple word.
Yang Wendong smiled and said: "You think we are reliable, but we are unreliable, so naturally we will find unreliable suppliers, as long as our identities are similar."
"Oh, that's right." Su Yiyi also felt that it made sense.
There were obviously no security guards at the entrance of the small factory. Yang Wendong walked in directly and saw a few wires hanging between the trees, with a lot of clothes hanging on them, for both men and women.
Obviously, like Yang Wendong and others now, the factory is their home.
After asking a random person, Yang Wendong found the office of the boss of this Hongxing Plastics Factory.
The door was not closed, and Yang Wendong immediately saw the middle-aged man sitting inside, wearing somewhat dirty work clothes, who seemed to be looking at some information or books. "Dong dong dong~~~" The sound of knocking on the door made the middle-aged man come back to his senses, glanced at the young men and women outside the door, and then said: "Are you here to find a job? I'm sorry, my business is not that good. Not very good, no need for people.”
Yang Wendong did not go in directly, but stood at the door and said with a smile: "Li Sheng, we are not looking for jobs, but from a company next door. We want to find a plastics factory for cooperation."
"Oh, please come in." The middle-aged boss also stood up quickly and picked up a business card from the table. They walked to the middle of the house and he smiled and said: "This is my business card. My name is Li Hongxing. But it seems that the two of you already know about my situation."
"Li Sheng. Yang Wendong also took out his business card and said, "I am the general manager of Changxing Pest Control Company."
"General manager?" Li Hongxing looked at the business card and was a little surprised: "Look at Yang Sheng. Only 20 years old?”
“Absolutely.” Yang Wendong smiled.
Being too young can sometimes be a disadvantage. People may not believe you, so he won’t deny it. Anyway, just be vague.
"A hero comes from a young age." Li Hongxing collected his business card and said, "Please sit down, both of you, and I'll make tea."
"Thank you." Yang Wendong also said politely.
Soon, the tea arrived. It was not a good tea, but it was a little better than boiled water.
Li Hongxing asked: "What kind of business does Yang Sheng do? I don't understand this pest control."
Yang Wendong said with a smile: "It's about killing various pests and mice. I used to I just sold rat-catching tools, and later I started a small business and took over the rat-killing business of some large warehouses. Recently, I opened a factory to produce a kind of rat-catching tools.”
"It's amazing." After listening to this, Li Hongxing said, "Yang Sheng's words contain countless hardships."
"It's not bad. Recently, all the hardships have been rewarded." Yang Wendong smiled.
The fundamental reason why he was able to successfully follow this path was because he saw a lot of knowledge in other fields on the Internet in his previous life that people in this era could not imagine.
In addition, and more importantly, in the past few months, as a time traveler, he has been constantly learning; learning to study the laws of rats, learning to understand Hong Kong society, learning to read, etc.
There are also some people I have met through technology along the way. Otherwise, even if I find money to start a factory to open a sticky mouse board factory, it will be difficult to expand, at least it will take a long time. channel.
Li Hongxing nodded and asked, "Then what can I produce for Yang Sheng?"
"This kind of board has very low size requirements." Yang Wendong handed over the prepared hand-drawn drawings.
Li Hongxing looked at the drawings and said directly: "It is indeed very simple, and the size requirements are lower than many toys."
Yang Wendong asked again: "As for the mold, you can make it yourself. "
Li Hongxing shook his head and said: "That's not possible, but I have people who can cooperate with it."
Yang Wendong nodded and said: "Okay, for my plastic plates, you can quote them based on separate molds and subsequent production unit prices. I will place an order of no less than 10,000 pieces for each batch."
Li Hongxing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you a quote within three days."
PS: Please give me a monthly ticket!
