King of Industry

  Chapter 868 The strategy of giving up the small and broad

  On a piece of wasteland in the southern suburbs of Ninghai City, dozens of excavators are busy in full swing.

  Zhao Guoyang and Jin Xiuzhu looked at all this from a distance, and looked at each other with smiles.

  Here is the industrial land designated by the Ninghai Municipal Government to "Xingtai-Daewoo Automobile Group Corporation".

   Covering an area of ​​two million square meters, it is enough to be as large as ten "Hongda Machinery Factory".

   With the full support of the Ninghai Municipal Government and the huge amount of money invested by "Daewoo Motor Company" in advance, the production line was basically set up in the first half of the year, so there is no problem.

   No, in just over a week, the wasteland in front of me has taken on a new look, which even surprised Jin Xiuzhu.

  Looking at the good partner around her, Jin Xiuzhu blinked and said, "Guoyang, your guess is really accurate. Looking at the current progress, it is true that our production base will be officially put into production as soon as spring next year!"

   "To be honest, this kind of progress is much faster than I expected before!"

  Hearing this, Zhao Guoyang shrugged his shoulders, and said indifferently: "Normal! We Chinese people have believed in one thing since ancient times—more people are more powerful."

   "As long as we have enough manpower to support us, we can create any miracle."

  Jin Xiuzhu recognized Zhao Guoyang's narration, and immediately nodded with a "huh".

Suddenly, she seemed to think of something again, so she turned her head to look at Zhao Guoyang and said, "Guoyang, two days ago, it seems that the director Mu of the 'Hongda Machinery Factory' where you work has looked for you? He called you over, What was talked about?"

Hearing Jin Xiuzhu's question, Zhao Guoyang just smiled slightly: "It's nothing, just remind me, after I build my factory, don't forget to go to the 'Hongda Machinery Factory' from time to time to give technical guidance. .”

   Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang showed a smile on his face: "Speaking of which, our 'Hongda Machinery Factory' is still very strong technically, and the burden on me has been lightened a lot..."

  Jin Xiuzhu didn't know much about the "Hongda Machinery Factory" and didn't ask in detail, so she changed the subject and asked Zhao Guoyang about "new materials".

The Miss Jin frowned and said: "Guoyang, the news came from South Korea recently, it seems that the building material company under the 'Hyundai Group' is researching a kind of 'environmentally friendly' cement, if they research it If so, our construction company under the 'Daewoo Group' may be in danger..."

After Jin Xiuzhu said this, Zhao Guoyang was amused: "Xiuzhu, you can rest assured about this. 'Environmental protection cement' is not so easy to develop. According to my personal speculation, this 'Hyundai Group' should be setting off a smokescreen. .”

   "Now you'Daewoo Group' is in a defensive state against the 'Hyundai Group'. At this time, you must hold your breath and don't fight hard with the other party."

   "In the final analysis, the 'Hyundai Group' with the support of the South Korean government, its comprehensive strength still needs to stabilize your 'Daewoo Group'. We have to admit this."

Jin Xiuzhu still trusted Zhao Guoyang's analysis, and immediately nodded her head and said: "Well, Guoyang, you are right, this'environmental protection cement' has been developed by Daewoo Construction Company for two or three years, but There has been no breakthrough."

"The 'Modern Building Materials Company' has hired a lot of people from our 'Daewoo Group' before, and this time they found out about this research. But logically speaking, it really shouldn't come up with results so quickly... "

  Seeing what Jin Xiuzhu said, Zhao Guoyang felt relieved.

  Speaking of it, Zhao Guoyang's strategy for Jin Xiuzhu is to "give up the small and broaden the big" for such a behemoth as the "Hyundai Group".

   Zhao Guoyang's idea is very simple, "Daewoo Group" can allow this "Hyundai Group" to lead itself in many fields such as steel, machinery, trade, transportation, and cement production.

  However, in the heavyweight automobile industry and heavy machinery, they must compete with each other.

  Of course, this kind of competition is definitely not in South Korea, but with the whole world in mind.

   Judging from the current proportions of the two groups in the global auto market, the "Hyundai Group" has little advantage over the "Daewoo Group".

   Even in Southeast Asia, Latin America and other regions, the market share of "Daewoo Group" is even higher than that of them.

  The establishment of "Xingtai-Daewoo Automobile Group Corporation" is one of the main purposes, which is to meet the "Hyundai Group" in Europe, North America and other places where it has traditionally been strong.

  Before, Zhao Guoyang and Jin Xiuzhu had already discussed that the main products produced by "Xingtai-Daewoo Automobile Group Company" would be relatively high-end models.

   These models are definitely not sold in economically underdeveloped regions such as Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa.

  But for rich people in Europe and America, this kind of product is what they want to look forward to.

Gently patted Jin Xiuzhu's back to show comfort, and Zhao Guoyang said with a relaxed face: "Xiuzhu, don't take the 'Hyundai Group' too seriously. As long as we settle down, take care of the 'Xingtai-Daewoo Motors' When the group company is set up, the 'Hyundai Group' will feel uncomfortable..."

   Jin Xiuzhu was both surprised and delighted by Zhao Guoyang's confident statement.

   All along, what Zhao Guoyang said has always been able to come true.

  Since he is so sure, most of Jin Xiuzhu's fear of the "Hyundai Group" in his heart has gone.

  Taking a deep breath, this Miss Jin said with a smile: "Guoyang, you said that, then I will wait and see?"

  When Zhao Guoyang smiled and nodded, Jin Xiuzhu said again: "By the way, Guoyang. Your initial work here is almost done, and I'm about to return to Malaysia."

   Zhao Guoyang was not surprised by Jin Xiuzhu's intention to leave.

  Speaking of which, she is in Malaysia, but there is still "Daewoo Shipping Company" to take care of her.

  This "yacht project" is equally important, and samples must be produced before the end of the year.

   Jin Xiuzhu went to watch, and he could give feedback to himself in time if he had any questions.

After trying to understand this, Zhao Guoyang said with a "huh" and said: "Xiuzhu, you are right, Malaysia is now the main base of your 'Daewoo Group'. After managing that side, turn around and you The headquarters can be moved there at any time..."

  Jin Xiuzhu heard the words, she nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, that's what my father told me before!"

   "Father told me that when the time is right, once our 'Daewoo Motor Company''s foreign business surpasses domestic business, then we can leave at any time and move the headquarters to another place!"

  After hearing Kim Soo-joo's statement, Zhao Guoyang knew in his heart that Mr. Jin Yuzhong was also completely disappointed with the South Korean government.

   Otherwise, it would be impossible for him, a person of the older generation, to have such thoughts.

  As for "Daewoo Group", his own partner, of course Zhao Guoyang can make some points, and he will definitely make some points.

  He pondered for a while, then raised his head and said to Jin Xiuzhu: "Xiuzhu, I personally think that if you 'Daewoo Group' wants to relocate its headquarters, you can consider a few small countries in Eastern Europe..."

   "Eastern European countries?"

  After hearing Zhao Guoyang's proposal, Jin Xiuzhu was a little confused.

  In her impression, the economic development of Eastern European countries is still relatively good, not much worse than that of South Korea.

  In this case, if the headquarters and production base are moved there, in terms of cost, there will not be much reduction at all.

  This runs counter to the original intention of his father, Jin Yuzhong, to settle in an area with cheap labor.

  However, Jin Xiuzhu also knew that Zhao Guoyang would definitely not aim at nothing.

So she took a serious look at Zhao Guoyang, and asked casually: "Guoyang, the labor force in this Eastern European country is not cheap. Moving there, the effect should not be as good as in Southeast Asia, right? What's the secret behind this, you can tell me the details talk about..."

  Zhao Guoyang touched his chin, and explained slowly: "The economic prosperity of Eastern European countries is actually just an illusion. In fact, neither Yugoslavia nor Bulgaria can be considered a developed country."

   "Including Czechoslovakia, a traditional European industrial power, after splitting into Czech and Slovakia, there is also a feeling of lack of succession..."

  Zhao Guoyang paused for a moment, then continued: "According to the data I know, the unemployment rate in Eastern European countries has generally exceeded 10% in the past two years."

   "If you 'Daewoo Group' can move the headquarters there when the other party is in the most difficult time, not only can you give people a good impression, but you can also get a lot of policy support, why not do it?"

  Hearing what Zhao Guoyang said, Jin Xiuzhu's eyes lit up.

  She clapped her hands and responded repeatedly: "That's right! Another advantage is that after our "Daewoo Group" moved its headquarters there, our car sales in Eastern European countries will definitely increase."

   "Now in the Eastern European market, we are not much behind the 'Hyundai Group'. If there is such a change, it is no longer a fantasy to catch up and surpass the other party!"

   Seeing that Miss Jin was able to "infer other things from one instance", Zhao Guoyang smiled and gave her a "thumbs up" appreciatively.

   Seeing Zhao Guoyang deliberately teasing her funny face, Jin Xiuzhu couldn't help but smile.

  After laughing, this Miss Jin looked at her watch and said, "Okay, it's getting late, I have to go. The plane takes off in the afternoon, and I'm going to SJ City now, just in time!"

  Zhao Guoyang didn't ink, nodded, pointed to the "Rolls Royce" parked there behind and said, "Sure, I'll ask Luo Zhongxin to take you directly to Hongqiao Airport in SJ."

   "Best trip, Xiuzhu!" Zhao Guoyang did not forget to smile and wave to Jin Xiuzhu when he was parting.
