Our Rise Era

Chapter 24 I'll give you shares!
The clear sky is like a deep gem, dotted with stars, scattered over the bustling factory.

The lights below are bright, and the roar of machines rises and falls, weaving a symphony of the night.

Watching the scenes in the factory, and watching Zhang Yang and Zheng Guodong chatting happily, they talked about everything from brand benefits to company management, from the future to market prospects...

Until this moment, Zhang Gui still had a sense of unreality and trance.

My once disappointing nephew...

He led [Zheng's Food Co., Ltd.] to reform...

He developed a series of management system documents...

With his swift and resolute actions, he eliminated the old problems of Zheng's Food Co., Ltd. in one fell swoop...

Why did he become such a different person just a few months later?
You said that he came to his senses after suffering a great disaster, and I can understand that he turned over a new leaf, but why did he suddenly lose his social experience, emotional intelligence, business knowledge, and legal...

Isn’t this too abnormal?

"Today, you sit here and make tea."

"Boss Zheng, this is your seat."

"But, the tea you make is delicious..."

office.

When Zhang Gui and Zhang Yang were about to take their seats, Zheng Guodong suddenly pointed to his own seat and made a decision that shocked Zhang Gui.

Zhang Gui looked at Zheng Guodong, then at Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang's face seemed to be always so calm. He paused for a moment and then smiled. He was not pretentious. He just sat down calmly and said, "Okay, then I'll take a dip here today!"

Outside the window, there is a gentle breeze, bringing a hint of coolness.

The office suddenly became very quiet.

Zhang Yang concentrates on making tea. His movements seem casual but reveal a rare calmness and delicacy.

The boiling water and tea leaves collide in the cup, giving off a fresh hot steam. Soon, the air is filled with a faint tea fragrance.

"[Tianxin Toy Factory], it seems that it is in a dangerous situation now and can't take care of itself?" Zheng Guodong stared at the rising hot air and suddenly broke the silence.

"In recent years, foreign investment in China has become increasingly active in mergers and acquisitions, and Chinese companies have been struggling under the mergers and suppression of capital. If we look at it from this perspective, in fact, everyone is in a dangerous situation. However, the more dangerous the situation is, the more we must work together to form a set of win-win cooperation system of our own. Only by gathering our fists and punching out can we have strength!"

Zhang Yang placed the sterilized tea cups in front of Zheng Guodong and Zhang Gui one by one, gently poured tea for them, and said seriously.

“How to form a win-win cooperation system?”

"Children's instant noodles are naturally aimed at the children's market. It is difficult to attract people just by eating them. However, if every pack of instant noodles has some promotional gadgets and gimmicks, then the selling point will increase."

Zhang Yang paused briefly and narrowed his eyes. "I have visited Tianxin Toy Factory these days. Tianxin Toy Factory's disadvantages are obvious. At the moment, it is short of funds. Most of its products are involved in lawsuits for alleged infringements and it is unable to pay off its various debts. At the moment, it has only one way to go, bankruptcy protection... But it also has advantages. We have a complete production line and machines. As long as we adjust the model and redesign the peripheral image, we can launch it together with Children's Instant Noodles when Popeye is broadcast..."

When Zheng Guodong heard this, he fell into deep thought. After a moment, he looked at Zhang Yang again: "Plastic toys, put in instant noodle bags, is this what you mean?"

"Yes, that's what I mean. However, it's not limited to this. Our marketing can be diversified..."

“Diversification of what?”

"We can sell in the form of card collections. For example, we put a card behind each toy bag with the Chinese characters [Zheng's Food] made into puzzle pieces of different colors... After children collect the complete puzzle colors of [Zheng's Food] on the card, they can exchange them for different toys..."

"Putting puzzles while eating instant noodles?" Zheng Guodong became interested.

"Yes! Use puzzle pieces of different colors to exchange for different toys, such as toy cars, toy people, toy dolls... and these rewards are all in the instant noodles... These days, do some careful research to see which toys have a great influence on players, and then make similar toys..." "..."

Zheng Guodong's eyes lit up as he listened, and he nodded, but then he frowned as he thought of something: "What about the cost? For a pack of instant noodles at 50 cents, the cost is hard to control, and if you're not careful, you'll end up overspending..."

Zhang Yang didn't say anything, but looked at his second uncle.

Zhang Gui was silent for a long time and finally gritted his teeth and said, "In order to show our sincerity in cooperation, our first batch of toys will be free. Let's hit this punch hard first!"

"I don't need you to do it for free, so I'll buy it at cost price plus some labor costs..."

Zheng Guodong was somewhat moved by Zhang Gui's expression, but he knew very well that Tianxin Toy Factory was in difficulty now and it was impossible for him to let them do the work for free.

It’s good to have this attitude!
"Mr. Zheng..."

"We'll be a family from now on! The most important thing now is to work together to overcome the difficulties!"

"Okay! Okay! Thank you, Mr. Zheng!" Zhang Gui nodded vigorously.

"It's okay, Secretary Li, you can first take Mr. Zhang to familiarize himself with our [Zheng's Food Co., Ltd.] to facilitate future cooperation..."

"Ok!"

Secretary Li next to him smiled and invited Zhang Gui to go outside.

Zhang Gui glanced at Zhang Yang and Zheng Guodong.

He was keenly aware that Zheng Guodong seemed to have something to discuss with Zhang Yang. Although he also had a lot to say to Zhang Yang, he finally tactfully followed Secretary Li out.

After Zhang Gui left, only Zhang Yang and Zheng Guodong were left in the huge office.

Zheng Guodong drank his tea silently, staring at the cup for a long time, and finally looked at Zhang Yang: "Mr. Zhang, there is one thing I want to make clear to you..."

"Mr. Zheng, you say..." Zhang Yang made another cup of tea.

"I have seen all the things you have done during this period. At the same time, you have also seen the current situation of our [Zheng's Food Co., Ltd.]. Last night, I was thinking about whether we should cooperate briefly or continue to cooperate in the future and deepen this cooperation..."

"What do you mean by short-term cooperation?" Zhang Yang narrowed his eyes. At this moment, he could hear something unusual about Zheng Guodong.

"Now, after a series of reforms in the business department and the marketing management department, all the young people recruited here know that they came because of your news... You are very capable, your business sense and cognition in all aspects are far superior to your peers, even some veterans who have been through many battles are not as good as you. As the helmsman of a company, I know very well that if you stay in [Zheng's Food Co., Ltd.] for a long time, the company will only know you and not me..." Zheng Guodong looked at Zhang Yang. At this moment, he didn't have any extra nonsense and went straight to the point: "If it is a short-term cooperation, our next project cooperation will continue, and I will give you a generous bonus, but you have to slowly divest the internal management of the company... After all, this company is named Zheng!"

“What if it’s a long-term collaboration?”

"As you know, in the short term, we are in a difficult situation now. For a long time, what we put in is not proportional to what we get. We can't even see any returns. We have to keep investing money in the early stage, and every step forward is extremely difficult. It can even be described as life and death. Moreover, the market environment is not good. The current Zheng's Food is no longer the original Zheng's Food. It is destined to take a very difficult road of reform! If you think this road can continue, and you think that I, Zheng Guodong, am reliable and willing to work with me, then the company will belong to you and me in the future..."

Zheng Guodong stood up, looked at the gray sky in the distance, and said softly.

"I have a big appetite..." Zhang Yang narrowed his eyes.

"How big is it?"

"Are you a heavy gambler?"

“I’m not a big gambler, but now that I’ve taken this step, I’m going to go all in and prove myself!”

"Give me 30% of the shares, and I'll help you raise the odds. If you want to win, you'll win a grand slam, a full house!"

"it is good!"
