Longqi 1924

Chapter 41 How about acquiring this factory?

Unfortunately, Jimmy just learned a few days ago that his boss was also a friend of his friend. It is said that he was in a hurry to return to the UK to deal with the family estate and prepare to transfer the factory.

Although Jimmy's treatment is average with him, he is at least a technical backbone, and his childhood is a thing of the past, but the sudden boss wants to change hands on the factory. Jimmy seems to be very passive at this moment. It is difficult for him to imagine how to find a new job with his clumsy tongue.

It is said that the boss hasn't found the next one yet. The factory has been shut down. Jimmy is at a loss. Although he has also run a few factories, how big is Singapore? There are not many enterprises that meet Jimmy's requirements. Unfortunately, they are not short of manpower for the time being. Jimmy thought that there is only a sad place to return to the United States. Is there any way? Jimmy is very confused.

Chen Jiaju's eyes are getting brighter and brighter. A small machinery factory with two or three hundred people wants to be transferred? It is said that the boss has just bought a new batch of machine tools? Is Jimmy still a senior engineer?

Chen Jiaju began to think about it while agreeing to Jimmy.

Now is the 1920s, which is the most rapid economic development in the first half of the 20th century, and the most prosperous time for the real economy. In these days, as long as there is capital and strength, no matter what industry is, it is a huge profit. Chen Jiaju thought that China at this time, no! Not only China, but also the whole of Asia, industrial development is quite poor. It is Japan that can rank well, and other areas are basically poor. Not to mention the development of heavy industry, even light industry is basically not decent.

Chen Jiaju secretly said that if you want to do business at this time, it should be a good choice. The climate in Nanyang is hot, and it is estimated that it must be very profitable to set up an electric fan factory. Besides, there is also this big market in China. Well, yes, if you really want to do it, you will definitely make a lot of money. You can't just rely on these entertainment industries. Strictly speaking, they can't produce any value. Well, run the industry!

Jimmy talked about his unlucky history endlessly, and his heart was very comfortable. For so many years, he has been suppressing his emotions. Today, he doesn't know why. When he met such a kind oriental man, he couldn't control his emotions and vented.

Jimmy looked at Chen Jiaju, who was listening carefully in front of him, and his heart was full of gratitude.

Seeing that Jimmy stopped nagging, Chen Jiaju smiled and said, "It seems that Jimmy, your experience is quite sympathetic, but, Jimmy, summarize yourself, why did this happen?"

Jimmy frowned and thought deeply, "I really thought about this problem. At first, I just complained that others couldn't understand my ideas, but later I found that the problem might be more from myself. My personality is still too stubborn. When I encounter problems, I only know how to move forward but not know how to retreat. Ha ha, it's funny to think about it. I was like a child who didn't grow up at that time!"

Chen Jiaju raised the coffee cup and said to Jimmy, "Hangt for understanding!"

Jimmy was stunned for a moment and smiled and said, "Hor long live understanding!"

Chen Jiaju turned the topic and said, "Jimmy, you just said that your boss wants to transfer the factory. I don't know, what products can the factory produce?"

Jimmy may have lost his troubles after venting. He rarely smiled brightly and said, "Chen, speaking of this, I'm not worth it for my boss. Obviously, such a potential factory has made him toss around. Although the scale of the factory is not large, it has all the machine tools and equipment in it. Now it is only used to produce a general industrial semi-finished product, and even produces screw caps and so on. It's really annoying.

Chen Jiaju asked, "So, Jimmy, what do you think this factory can produce? Can the electric fan work?"

Jimmy said in a relaxed tone, "This factory just added some new machine tools last year. I want to say that those pots, bowls, spoons or some agricultural machinery are very easy to produce. Well, electric fan? It's not enough to rely on the existing equipment alone. You have to add some equipment to produce motors. Of course, if you buy motors from outside and assemble them by yourself, there will be no problem at all!"

Chen Jiaju was excited and continued to ask, "Oh, can you really produce electric fans? How big is the output?"

Jimmy looked strangely at the Oriental who seemed not to be very old in front of him. Why did he ask in such detail? Are you interested in this factory? Is there any mistake? Anyway, it's a factory. It's not a toy in the hands of you rich businessmen!

Jimmy, who was in a good mood, soon put aside the doubts in his heart. He picked up the coffee and took two sips and said, "If it's just the production of electric fans, I can calculate, the fan blade, the enclosure, the main structure... Well, if it is a full production in three shifts, it should be able to reach a monthly output of 10,000 units. Of course, this is just a theory. The maximum value on it."

Chen Jiaju quickly calculated that the monthly output is 10,000 units, that is, the annual output is 120,000 units. Well, based on the annual output of 100,000 units, the current price of an electric fan should be about 80 oceans. Grass, this year's turnover is 8 million oceans! This is worse than robbing a bank!!!

Chen Jiaju's eyes are like a little star. This is simply a huge profit. He is so excited to do it. This business is definitely worth doing!

Chen Jiaju thought of a problem and quickly calmed down. He frowned and said, "I have a question. Jimmy, as a senior engineer in this field, haven't you made any comments on the factory's problems?"

Jimmy smiled bitterly and said, "Why didn't you mention it? Naturally, I suggested to the boss to change the product. Among them, there are electric fans, bicycles and so on. The boss's answer is very simple. There is no money to toss! What else can I say?"

Chen Jiaju said happily, "Do you still know how to produce bicycles?"

Jimmy said lightly, "At least I'm also a senior mechanical engineer. Besides, I have worked in these factories for a few years, otherwise I wouldn't have advised the boss to produce these things."

Jimmy asked doubtfully, "Chen, why are you so interested in these things? Is it you...?"

Chen Jiaju said happily, "Yes, Jimmy, I'm very interested in your boss, a factory that is about to be transferred. Jimmy, you are a professional. Give me an opinion. What do you think if my factory takes it down to produce electric fans?

Jimmy was shocked and said in disbelief, "Chen, I heard right, are you going to buy this factory? It's incredible to sell cakes!"
