Chapter 767
At the end of the year, many experts living abroad will take the opportunity of the Chinese New Year to return to China to visit their relatives.
Lan Youlin was retained by Meng Haisheng in this way.
Now, Lan Youlin is also preparing to use this method to find experts in the field of scientific research for motorcycle and engine factories.
For this reason, Meng Haisheng specially allocated a part of funds to Lan Youlin.
Since these experts are to be kept in China, they naturally cannot be too stingy in material matters. It is difficult to retain truly capable people if they are stingy.
Meng Haisheng and Lan Youlin discussed future plans while looking at motorcycles.
"At the beginning, we can use the hunger marketing strategy, launch a small number of products first, and set the price uniformly at 8,800 yuan per unit."
"I understand, I am quite good at hunger marketing."
After working with Meng Haisheng for such a long time, Lan Youlin has already understood his business strategy quite well, and the two have a tacit understanding of cooperation.
At present, there are relatively few motorcycle dealerships in Beijing. Meng Haisheng simply bought a store on the most prosperous commercial street and opened a store called "Fourth Continent Motorcycle General Dealer".
The beautifully decorated dealership displays motorcycles of various colors. Anyone who passes by the store will take a look.
A large billboard hangs at the door of the store: "New motorcycle 8,800 yuan per unit, with a free helmet"
It must be said that this price is very touching.
There are several stores selling imported motorcycles on the commercial street, and their prices are almost all above 10,000 yuan, and there is no cheap one.
Even domestic motorcycles with ordinary appearance are priced at around 5,000 to 6,000 yuan.
Meng Haisheng is the only one who looks good and is not expensive.
Logically speaking, Meng Haisheng's price is neither high nor low, which is likely to lead to sales difficulties.
However, his publicity efforts are strong enough.
In just one night, several large city TV stations in Beijing and surrounding areas broadcast advertisements for the Fourth Continent Motorcycle.
These high-quality motorcycles produced by foreign production lines are sold at the price of domestic ones.
At the end of the year, young people who want to buy motorcycles, after seeing the advertisements, went to dealerships in various places for consultation.
However, they found out that the Fourth Continent motorcycles are sold in limited quantities, and each major sales point is limited to one color each week, with only 20 units of each color.
If there is no suitable one, you can only wait until next week.
It is worth mentioning that the dealership does not accept deposits, so if you want a motorcycle, you should hurry up next time.
The more scarce the goods, the more popular they are.
At the end of the year, most people who want to buy motorcycles prefer red.
Red looks festive and is more eye-catching when driving on the road.
Therefore, the phone of the motorcycle factory was almost blown up.
Many dealers hope to increase the supply of red motorcycles.
Meng Haisheng had anticipated this trend long ago and communicated with the production workshop in advance to increase the production of red motorcycles to nearly ten times that of other colors.
Meng Haisheng asked dealers to seize the time and gradually increase the supply.
"Boss, our motorcycles are simply crazy."
Lan Youlin rushed into Meng Haisheng's office with the sales report of the past two weeks.
"According to the current sales speed, all the motorcycles we produced before the end of the year will not be enough to sell."
"This is just the beginning. As people's living standards improve, the demand for our motorcycles will grow."
"You should also pay more attention to the domestic production line. If it can be finalized before the end of the year, our production capacity will be greatly increased in the spring of next year."
"Boss, you think too highly of me. The gap between our own domestic production line and foreign imports is still large."
"How are the experts I asked you to look for?"
"We offer very high salaries. Two have agreed to join our company as soon as possible. The other two are in the process of negotiating , it is expected that there will be news in the next two days. "
"However, these are not the most powerful. There is a senior engineer named Zuo Rong in China who has made great achievements in the field of engine research. However, he is currently working in another company. I think it will be difficult to recruit him to our company."
"What is the difficulty?"
"Engineer Zuo Rong went to the countryside when he was young, and later his classmate brought him back from the countryside. Since then, he has been working in his classmate's company for many years. If you want to recruit him to our company, you may encounter some obstacles."
Meng Haisheng responded. This was a life-saving grace, so he didn't need to recruit people.
"Think of other ways. There are still many outstanding engineers in China. You can look for other talents."
"Okay, give me some time. I believe that a strong research team should be established before the end of the year."While Meng Haisheng was busy looking for researchers, Yin Limin was thinking about how to poach Meng Haisheng's people.
After returning to the capital, Yin Limin had been thinking about exchanging grain for steel in Guanshan Town.
No matter how he calculated, he felt that exchanging grain for steel was the safest, after all, the price of grain was relatively stable.
The reason why he didn't make money from exchanging grain for steel last time was that he didn't prepare enough.
The employees who collected grain knew nothing about grain, so they were deceived by the grain sellers.
If he found a few experts to collect grain, strictly control the price and quality, and then go to Guanshan Town to exchange grain for steel, he would definitely make a lot of money.
However, where can he find this knowledgeable person? This became the biggest problem in front of him.
"Li Feng, you have been in contact for so long, why didn't I see you bring anyone?"
Li Feng, who was called to the office, had a flattering smile on his face.
"Boss, I recently contacted several people who claim to know everything about grain, but when I asked them, they didn't even know the fluctuations in grain prices in the past two months."
"How dare I recruit such people to the company?"
Li Feng felt bitter. It was not easy to find the right talent.
"Who is the person in charge of collecting grain on Meng Haisheng's side? How is your investigation going?"
When it comes to Meng Haisheng, Li Feng silently gave him a thumbs up in his heart.
In the past half month, he has been investigating the companies under Meng Haisheng's name. The more he investigates, the more surprised he is.
Who would have thought that Meng Haisheng has so many high-quality companies and factories in his hands, creating wealth for him continuously.
Apart from other things, his operation in collecting grain alone makes Li Feng admire him.
"The person in charge of collecting grain now is Sui Yang, who is Meng Haisheng's college classmate."
"Sui Yang is very capable. He helped Meng Haisheng set up dozens of grain collection points across the country."
"It is precisely because of these grain collection points that Meng Haisheng has a large amount of grain in his hands, so he can exchange steel with Gogol."
"Dozens of grain collection points?"
Yin Limin didn't expect Meng Haisheng to set up so many grain collection points in such a short time.
His first reaction was that Sui Yang's work ability was extremely outstanding. Without him, Meng Haisheng would never have been able to accumulate so much grain.
