Chapter 607 This isn't a slap in the face! (Seeking monthly votes)

In fact, Huo Daheng understood the importance of European channels without needing anyone to remind him.

Therefore, he didn't get entangled with the mountain bike factory's representative, but instead made a direct phone call to Beijing.

What was originally unrelated to the Gulou Repair Shop was dragged into the mess because of a compliment from Huo Daheng over the phone.

Mountain bikes manufactured at Gulou Repair Shop have never had any quality issues!
To avoid causing even bigger trouble, leaders from Beijing's industrial departments personally led the team, including the director of the bicycle workshop at the Drum Tower Repair Shop, and Wu Aiguo accompanied them.

"Boss, this has nothing to do with me, does it?"

Wu Aiguo was extremely frustrated; he had only just returned from the south.

"I heard you have a good relationship with Mr. Huo?"

The leaders of the capital's industrial sector smiled and retorted, "If we don't put in the effort now, when will we?"

"Since it's a quality issue with the bicycle, let's resolve it as a quality issue. I'm sure Mr. Huo won't mind these things!"

Wu Aiguo said helplessly, "It's just a little polishing burr. Asking the local workers to help deal with it shouldn't be a big problem!"

"That's easy for you to say!"

The leader of the Beijing industrial sector said irritably, "It concerns the profits of hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of liquor, how could we not take it seriously?"

"So, how does the leader plan to resolve this?"

Wu Aiguo asked curiously, "We can't force Mr. Huo to accept it, can we?"

"What kind of good ideas are you having, young comrade?"

The leader of the Beijing industrial department glared at him and said with amusement, "Of course, we'll follow the rules!"

"Then there's no need for us to travel all the way south, is there?"

"After this incident, I definitely need to apologize to Mr. Huo. We should also discuss how to communicate more effectively and conveniently!"

Wu Aiguo was stunned. After all, he still didn't quite understand some of the ways of doing things in this era.

However, no matter what, this matter had little to do with the Gulou Repair Shop, so he couldn't be bothered to pay much attention to it.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong Province again, Huo Daheng not only discussed matters with the leaders of the industrial departments from Beijing, but also sought out him in various ways.

"Mr. Huo, just say what you have to say!"

Wu Aiguo was a bit overwhelmed and asked directly, "Is there any progress on what happened last time?"

At this time of year, Guangzhou is a beautiful city where the grass grows lush and the birds sing.

Looking around, the city and its surroundings are filled with a vibrant sea of ​​flowers, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance of blossoms.

The sun overhead wasn't scorching, and a gentle spring breeze was blowing, making everyone feel indescribably comfortable.

With blue skies and white clouds overhead, and a sea of ​​flowers at your feet, it's the perfect time to go out for a spring outing.

"Yes, the movie has already been filmed in Hong Kong!"

Following Wu Aiguo's gaze, Huo Daheng also saw the beautiful spring scenery of Huacheng and couldn't help but smile contentedly: "I think this is a great place to shoot related advertisements!"

Wu Aiguo nodded in agreement, then asked suspiciously, "Didn't they say they'd throw money at hiring a French director and team to film it?"

"We should test the waters on Hong Kong Island first!"

Huo Daheng said directly, "After all, the investment is not small. It costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. It's not something you can just invest in on a whim!"

"How did the movie do at the box office in Hong Kong?"

Wu Aiguo asked directly, "Judging from Mr. Huo's reaction, it seems to be good!"

“It’s really good!”

Huo Daheng said with satisfaction, "The box office has exceeded 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. If it has a long run, it might even surpass one million!" "There's no need to play it that way!"

Wu Aiguo shook his head and said, "It's a pity that Hong Kong Island doesn't have a television station, otherwise it could be broadcast on television for free, which would maximize its advertising effect!"

"It's already quite good; it's caused quite a stir in the Hong Kong film industry!"

Huo Daheng said enthusiastically, "Quite a few young viewers have already asked about the couple's bicycles that appeared in the movie!"

"How many cars does Mr. Huo need?"

"Let's start with a thousand vehicles; the Hong Kong Island market is a bit too small!"

"Mr. Huo can just place the order directly with the Gulou Repair Shop. I didn't bring any extra bicycles with me this time!"

"No problem, the film is still showing in theaters. I plan to go to Europe immediately and invite the French director to shoot a European version!"

"Please hire directors who are talented but not famous. They don't have that so-called artist's attitude, and at least they can make the film the way you want it to be!"

Wu Aiguo advised, "As for the actors, just find newcomers!"

"When it's released, we'll piggyback on the success of 'Roman Holiday' and 'Gone with the Wind,' claiming it's comparable to these two classic romantic masterpieces!"

"Aren't you afraid of a backlash if you promote this kind of thing?"

Huo Daheng was shocked, and the way he looked at Wu Aiguo was a little strange.

"What's there to be afraid of?"

Wu Aiguo scoffed, "As long as the movie is of good quality, then we've already succeeded more than halfway. The rest is up to Mr. Huo!"

"Haha, thank you for your kind words, I hope everything goes well!"

Huo Daheng couldn't help but laugh heartily and left with great satisfaction.

Then, Wu Aiguo took the initiative to find the leader of the team and reported the details of his communication with Huo Daheng.

"What? The Gulou Repair Shop has come up with a new type of bicycle?"

The team leader exclaimed in surprise, "They've already received Mr. Huo's approval and are advertising and promoting it in Hong Kong?"

"Yes!"

Wu Aiguo said, "Mr. Huo's team will soon send the first batch of one thousand bicycles to the Gulou Repair Shop!"

"Very good, very good. I didn't expect your Gulou Repair Shop to make another deal without making a sound!"

"Without the support of our leaders, we wouldn't have had such a great opportunity!"

"It's all thanks to your repair shop, it's all your credit!"

The team leader said with a smile, "It would be great if the quality issue with the mountain bikes could be resolved smoothly this time, but I didn't expect there to be such a pleasant surprise!"

Huo Daheng didn't care too much, he just required that the mountain bikes be of good quality before he would take over.

After all, a mountain bike costs a thousand dollars, which is not a small amount no matter where you put it!

Just as Wu Aiguo had previously warned, asking local machinery factory workers to help with sanding, polishing, and painting was not a troublesome matter.

It can only be said that some people are unwilling to take even this small responsibility.

As a result, a small matter was dragged out into a big one, and it became very difficult for that Deputy Factory Director Sun to appear in a leadership position in the industrial system afterward.

During his visit to Guangzhou, Wu Aiguo did not go anywhere else and stayed with the delegation, not wanting to cause any trouble.

Of course, after consulting with the team leader, and through Huo Daheng's connections, a batch of machinery-related newspapers and magazines were purchased from Hong Kong Island, and a batch of related books were also purchased from Europe. All of this was done through proper channels.

Just as the first batch of couple-style bicycles from the Gulou Repair Factory arrived in Huacheng, Wu Aiguo returned to Beijing with leaders of the Beijing industrial system.
