Chapter 278 Four or two thousand catties are the correct answer!

"Lao Zhao, yes, it's a pity that you don't act for your acting skills!" Chen Jiaju patted Zhao Heqiang on the shoulder and was very happy.

"Lao Zhao, I have taken over Nanyang Shipping Company for more than a month. Do you have any ideas?" Chen Jiaju was much more serious when he talked about business.

Zhao Heqiang held the port of the ship with both hands, looked up at the endless sea, and said in a low voice, "The situation of Nanyang Shipping Company is not bad. Originally, Manager Shi's internal management was stable, his financial condition was good, and his income was not bad. Everything can be said to be on a formal road.

"Listening to your tone, you should also find a lot of problems, right?" Chen Jiaju turned his head and looked at Zhao Heqiang.

Zhao Heqiang organized his words and said, "It's not a problem. It's just that the company originally valued some advantages on the Kujin wharf too much. There seems to be no clear understanding and plan for how to really develop and do a good job in the shipping industry."

"Continuing..." Chen Jiaju listened attentively.

"Since the name of our company is Nanyang Shipping Company, we should do more in the field of shipping. But boss, you see, the company has been established for nearly two years, and most of them are old-fashioned sailboats. If it weren't for the 'Hengfa' large modern cargo ship that the boss personally agreed to buy, I can't believe that this is a so-called shipping company!" When it comes to his major, Zhao Heqiang can't take care of maintaining the boss's face.

Although Chen Jiaju felt that Zhao Heqiang's words were a little too much, he could feel his heartache about the current problems of Nanyang Shipping Company.

Sure enough, Zhao Heqiang continued, "Is this simply begging with a golden rice bowl!"

Chen Jiaju smiled. He handed Zhao Heqiang a cigarette and said, "So I strongly invite you, an expert in the shipping industry, to turn the world around. Come on, let's talk about your next thoughts."

After Zhao Heqiang gave his boss and himself an angry, he took two mouthfuls and felt that his brain was much clearer. He said excitedly, "In fact, since the end of the European war, the world economy has begun to develop in a better direction. Especially in recent years, driven by the U.S. economy, trade between countries around the world has increased rapidly. In this environment, the shipping industry is naturally rising. It can be said that without the vigorous development of the shipping industry, there will be no vigorous development of economies around the world.

After taking a few mouthfuls of cigarettes in his hand, Zhao Heqiang took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms. After pulling out a cigarette, he continued to swallow clouds and puff out the fog and said excitedly, "So, we must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to develop our Nanyang Shipping Company rapidly. Ha ha, the current shipping industry is simply a grab. The money industry!"

"Lao Zhao, do you mean that we need to buy more boats to improve the capacity of our Nanyang Shipping Company?" Chen Jiaju agreed with Zhao Heqiang.

"Yes, not only buy more boats, but also buy big boats as much as possible. Although this "Hengfa" is a thousand-ton class, it is not enough! Boss, think about it, the amount of trade from the South Sea to China alone every year does not count the amount to Europe and the Americas!" Zhao Heqiang is like a smart salesman who keeps bewitching his boss, but obviously Chen Jiaju listens to his opinion.

"How many boats should we buy?" Chen Jiaju began to study the general under his hand.

"Well, at least for five years, I think we should have no less than ten thousand-ton ships." Zhao Heqiang didn't think much about it. Obviously, he had thought about this problem for a long time.

Chen Jiaju is a little embarrassed. Now the stall is ready to be fully rolled out, and the funds for the purchase of cargo ships are not a small number. But if you don't buy it, it's obviously not watching the white ocean slip away from your eyes. This is not Chen Jiaju's style.

Zhao Heqiang saw the boss's hesitation. He thought for a moment and said, "If there is a channel to get a second-hand ship, just rent it, it won't take up much money."

A flash of lightning flashed in Chen Jiaju's mind. Yes, he fell into a misunderstanding. He always thought he was not short of money and always wanted to buy all the good things. From an economic point of view, this is the stupidest way to do it. Four or two thousand catties is the right solution!

"Vendant, Lao Zhao, I have approved your suggestion in principle. When you return to Kuching, you can write a report and submit it to the group company for review. Remember, if you just rent a boat, the ten or eight ships are too small, and there must be at least dozens of them!" After Chen Jiaju figured it out, he immediately refreshed and gave Zhao Heqiang an encouragement.

Zhao Heqiang was dumbfounded. This boss was really interesting. He was still worried about the lack of funds just now. Once he thought about it, he really opened his mouth. Okay, it's natural for you to be a boss, but you have to work hard for us to run errands.

"No problem, boss." Zhao Heqiang was actually very excited. He didn't know how many times he had said the same suggestion to his original boss, but he was pushed off one by one. The young boss in front of him was too much, but he was very reassuring and down-to-earth, but he made a decision immediately. Zhao Heqiang had a faint impulse to die as a confidant.

"Lao Zhao, the most important reason why you, the boss of the shipping company, also came to Sandakan this time is that we are going to build a shipyard here. Sandakan has an excellent natural port, which will also become our important shipping hub in the future. You have to know that everything related to shipping will be handled by you. Chen Jiaju regained his composure and cheered Zhao Heqiang faintly.

In the evening, the cargo ship 'Hengfa' taken by Chen Jiaju finally came to the sea outside the port of Sandakan.

Sandagan was bathed in a sunset glow at this time. The blue sea and the dense forest on the land constitute the most beautiful natural scenery, making Chen Jiaju and others involuntarily immersed in the beautiful scenery.

When Chen Jiaju saw the very distinctive seaside high-footed house in Sandagen, they couldn't help but be surprised, which was really an eye-opener for them.

Sandakan, an important gathering place for Chinese people, is naturally a trade object that Chen's Group attaches great importance to. However, because the power supply is not sufficient, the sales of lotus electric fans here are only average, and more importantly, Angel's clothes are very popular here.

After Chen Jiaju and his party got off the boat, after arranging the personnel of the left-behind cargo ship, they did not go straight to their own trading bank, but wandered leisurely in the small town of Sandakan. The freshness here still interested them.
