Reborn since 1993

Chapter 187 Picking up the leaks
It is said that it is an investment of one billion, but it is impossible to be true. All of it will be used in research and development. In the early stage, it will mainly invest in factories, research and development centers, various lighter parts and supporting facilities, etc.

But this does not prevent Li Dongling from saying this and expressing his determination to develop constant flow valve lighter technology.

Li Dongling is really willing to spend money on this technology. No matter how much R&D money he invests, he is willing to develop it. This is the only opportunity for domestic lighters to lead foreign lighters in technology!

With this technology, basically foreign lighter brands can only rely on feelings and so-called historical background to talk to Bige. Technically, there is no longer any way to suppress the Torch Group.

Hearing Li Dongling's words, Zhang Xiaocheng and Zhou Wenyan knew clearly that Li Dongling was determined to develop this technology at all costs.

"Lao Zhou, don't worry about research and development. No matter how much you invest, we will fight hard!"

At this time, Zhang Xiaocheng's fierceness also came up. If Li Dongling dared to bet, there was nothing else he wouldn't dare to bet on.

From the Shangguan Town Component Factory to the current Torch Group, Zhang Xiaocheng has struggled all the way. He had nothing before and dared to gamble when he was heavily in debt. It makes no sense that now that he has funds and a R&D team, he dares not anymore. !
More importantly, Zhang Xiaocheng believed in Li Dongling. Shangguan Town Component Factory had been heavily in debt and stopped production before, but it relied on Li Dongling to come back to life. Now it is the Torch Group's turn. Zhang Xiaocheng believes in Li Dongling even more than he believes in himself!
Li Dongling and Zhang Xiaocheng both expressed their opinions. Zhou Wenyan had nothing to worry about. He gritted his teeth and said, "I will definitely develop the constant flow valve lighter technology!"

"Don't worry about funding. As long as this technology can be developed before the production base is built, it will be worth the investment no matter how much it is!" Li Dongling said to Zhou Wenyan.

After coming out of the laboratory, Li Dongling could see a large construction site outside. After it is completed, tens of thousands of employees will flood here, working and resting here every day. Billions of lighters will appear here all over the world every year. Going to every corner, Li Dongling didn't know what the scene would be like here!
Zhang Xiaocheng, who was standing next to Li Dongling, also looked at the scene in front of him, watching a town turn into a district because of a company, and the entire district's industry revolved around a company. That feeling was really hard to use. language to describe.

It is definitely necessary to find a new way out for them. The Torch Group was established under the banner of Li Dongling, and Li Dongling cannot do anything to drive people away halfway. This requires Li Dongling to find new industries for the Torch Group. , which can allow Torch Group to transform and transfer personnel not needed in the lighter industry to other industries.

"As long as research and development results can be achieved, all the efforts will be adequately rewarded!"

The lighter industry may require tens of thousands of employees in the early stage. However, with the large-scale automated production and the need to reduce costs in the later stage, fewer and fewer employees will be needed. With so many employees, it will take them more than ten or twenty years to work at Torch Group. Where to go next year? !

E-cigarettes are still in the desert era. Although they were invented in the 1920s, they have not entered the mainstream smokers' attention.

It is conceivable that in the future, the Shangguan Economic Development Zone will basically revolve around the Torch Group. Every lighter parts manufacturer will move into the Torch Lighter Industrial Park, and the residents in Shangguan District will also make their living around the Torch Group.

Li Dongling turned to look at Zhang Xiaocheng, thought about it and said to him, what prospered because of it must decline because of it, Shangguan Economic Development Zone has been bound to Torch Group, Torch Group prospers, Shangguan Economic Development Zone There will also be flowers blooming. If the Torch Group stumbles one day, the Shangguan Economic Development Zone will definitely fall into a quagmire. There is no way around it.

Li Dongling also had to consider the situation of Torch Group in the future, "If Torch Group's technology can be successfully developed and the lighter industry can develop, Torch Group can also enter other industries, such as electronic cigarettes, gas stoves, sanitary ware and other industries!"

We can't really imitate some companies and let those middle-aged employees, in the euphemistic name, let them graduate, but in fact let them fend for themselves. What can middle-aged people do? !

It was not until eight years later that a domestic pharmacist invented a new generation of e-cigarettes. The original intention of the invention of any product was not to harm users, and the same was true for e-cigarettes.

The original intention of the invention of e-cigarettes is to make people quit smoking. Yes, it is used to replace nicotine and make people quit smoking. This thing is typically exported to domestic sales. After a few years of its rise in China, it was criticized for various reasons. Killing is prohibited.

But after it spread overseas, it set off a whirlwind that swept America and Europe, becoming an industry with an annual output value of 20 billion US dollars in America. Electronic cigarettes are very controversial in China, but in overseas markets, since its emergence, this industry has been soaring and growing at an alarming rate. From its birth to global output value, it exceeded 38 billion US dollars. It only took a few seconds. In more than ten years...

If the lighter industry can allow Torch Group to survive, then relying on the e-cigarette industry, Torch Group will have the opportunity to become a giant company.

Of course, the Torch Group is definitely targeting overseas markets in this industry and will not develop it domestically. It needs to cooperate with local snakes in America and Europe, otherwise it will not be possible at all. But even if it gives away a part of the profits, it will be enough for the Torch Group's business. Collection and profit ushered in explosive growth.

With lighters, e-cigarettes, gas stoves, sanitary ware and other industries, Li Dongling did not dare to guess what kind of existence the Torch Group could become in the future, but... it would definitely be no problem to survive and provide a large number of jobs.

If you can still lose money and survive with these chickens that lay golden eggs, then Li Dongling should really consider whether there is something wrong with the feng shui of Torch Group. Li Dongling also needs to take action to bring down the entire management of Torch Group. , all washed with blood!

Listening to Li Dongling's words, Zhang Xiaocheng was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Li Dongling had already made plans for the Torch Group.

Although he still didn't know what the electronic cigarette industry was, looking at Li Dongling's cautious look, he could feel that this industry might not be that simple.

"Products such as electronic cigarettes, gas stoves, and sanitary ware are all things that Torch Group needs to consider in the future. It will wait until the lighter industry stabilizes before starting to develop these products. In addition, the project must be kept confidential, otherwise if word spreads, other companies will take advantage of it, which will Make the Torch Group very passive!" Li Dongling confessed to Zhang Xiaocheng.

Zhang Xiaocheng nodded vigorously when he heard this. He was absolutely convinced by Li Dong's words. He would never forget what Li Dongling told him.

After staying with Torch Group for a while, Li Dongling left. Although Li Dongling's vision for establishing Feiyan Technology and Torch Group were different, these two companies are now related to countless employees and the people behind them. Li Dongling also has to be a little more cautious about his family!

"Immediately ask the consulting company from Nichiben to investigate all the situations at Nichiben Bandai Company!"

After returning to Dongling High-Tech, Li Dongling immediately called for Ren Yuefeng and Huxian, and directly proposed to inquire about the situation at Bandai.

Ren Yuefeng and Hu Xian looked at each other, and the two of them immediately heard the implication of Li Dongling. It was obvious that they were interested in Bandai Company.

"Mr. Li, are you planning to attack Wandai?!" Ren Yuefeng asked Li Dongling in a deep voice.

I still remember how aggressive Niben Bandai was when he came to Dongling High-tech last year. Who would have thought that in just a short time, the offense and defense would change, and Li Dongling would actually start to inquire about Bandai's situation.

After laughing, Li Dongling said, "Why not?!"

"If Bandai collapses, it will be an opportunity for Tanglin Hi-Tech. Why can't they take action?!"
