Chapter 69: I'd rather be a chicken head than a phoe
After watching the warehouse with Joseph, Lin Zidan asked him to go back to the company first, and told Xiaomei to collect Joseph's identity information and help him go through the onboarding procedures. After that, let him start working on the proposal, while Lin Zidan and Zhang Jing drove to a quiet restaurant for lunch.
"What do you think of what Joseph said today?" While waiting for the food to be served, Lin Zidan gently turned the teacup in his hand and said casually.
"To be honest, our initial investment was a little blind. Even though we did some market analysis, when Joseph said it today, I felt that we were quite stupid back then~" Zhang Jing said with a grin.
"What do you say?" Lin Zidan looked at Zhang Jing. After all, he came to this company entirely by relying on Zhang Jing's business sense and business experience, and there were not many decisions he could make.
"Joseph is right, now we only deal with Chen Gang's company, and it's very unfavorable for us to continue like this. In case the Chen family and his son smuggle and contact our supplier, we just need to add a little bit to our reserve price. Our suppliers will supply him directly, unless we get more distributors and get lower prices! Sooner or later it will be a dead end!"
After Zhang Jing said this, he was also nervous. He didn't think about this before, but because he took more than double the amount of goods taken by Chen Gang, he was not too worried about it. As soon as Joseph analyzed it, he saw this risk more clearly.
"What do you think?" Zhang Jing pushed the dish that the waiter had just brought to Lin Zidan and asked back.
"I think what he said really makes sense. Moreover, we need to have our own storage and independent packaging. Although this increases the cost, it can save unnecessary trouble and eliminate the opportunity for distributors to collude with the previous source of goods in private. Also Expand our supply scope and improve our supply capacity." Lin Zidan said thoughtfully and softly as he picked vegetables on the plate in front of him.
"That's right, since you've done it, you must work hard to make money. I won't talk about it before listing, but as the saying goes, it's better to be the head of the chicken than the tail of the phoenix. Only when you are the leader can you eat meat." Zhang Jingting After he finished speaking, he nodded excitedly.
"What about loans? What do you think?" Lin Zidan continued.
"The commercial loan that Joseph mentioned, I first went to various banks to find out the loan interest rate. You also know that what we Chinese are most afraid of is to owe money, how much money we have to do with how much money we have. , we have to invest more, but my father has given me 3 million yuan as start-up capital, and I haven’t earned a cent of the money. Now I ask for it, I’m also very shameless, or I’ll try a commercial loan. The big deal is that it’s a total loss, that is, the sum of the money in your hand is paid in.”
Zhang Jing said it was easy, but Lin Zidan knew that when they said they wanted to start a business, Zhang's mother was strongly against it, but Zhang's father was uncharacteristically, saying that he wanted to let Zhang Jing know the difficulty of starting a business, but he was stunned to transfer 3 million yuan from China. , equivalent to more than 360,000 US dollars to him, and said to see if he can toss out flowers.
"I also think it's feasible. After all, many foreigners start a company and buy a house with a loan. We Chinese are timid and want to take all the cash. This is the main reason why ZF is always staring at our Chinese tax declaration."
Lin Zidan has recently read a lot of books on finance and accounting, and found that the old American dares to borrow 30,000 dollars to do things with 10,000 dollars. Most Chinese buy a house and can't wait to get 80% of it before they dare to buy it with peace of mind. The house of the old beauty can be bought for only 10% to 20%! Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that most of the wages Chinese earn are in cash, and they conceal their income and report low taxes. Low tax returns and low credit limits prevent them from getting good loan rates or high loan limits.
"Didn't you say that Joseph went bankrupt with a commercial loan before?" Zhang Jing remembered the conversation between Lin Zidan and Joseph before going out.
"He should have been framed, so he was not reconciled and wanted to collect evidence to bring his perpetrators to justice, but after all, his arms could not twist his thighs, and he fell from the peak to the mortal world, asking for money but not for people. There is no one, so he is like this." Lin Zidan couldn't help but sighed when he remembered the experience and past that Joseph told him in the municipal park.
"If he's really capable, let's give him a try. Judging by his high fighting spirit, I think he would have wanted to do it a long time ago! But..." Zhang Jing stopped his hand and hesitated for a moment. Then said.
"If he can really help us make a lot of money, he will definitely not be satisfied with the salary you offered him. You also know that the old beauty is very greedy sometimes..." Zhang Jingshang stopped. typical.
"I thought about this. In the future, as long as we can recover the cost and repay the loan, and there is still surplus and room for growth, we can consider letting him join in, so that he will be more motivated, what do you think?" Lin Zidan Although he thought so, but after all, the No. 1 shareholder is Zhang Jing, and he must first give Zhang Jing a thorough understanding.
"Let's see first, it's easy to talk about it. We have been preparing for such a long time in the early stage of a company. With his grand blueprint, it is estimated that the preparation will take at least another year and a half. Let's talk about it at that time. We have to let us see it first. Money will do." Zhang Jing did not answer this proposal directly, but the most important thing is that he has not yet reached the level of complete trust in this Joseph.
"That's natural.. These are all things to come later. Now that Joseph's credit has been damaged, it is not easy to find a job. If he can help him solve the problem of food and clothing, he should be very content and grateful!" Lin Zidan nodded and said.
"But I have one more concern..." Zhang Jing hesitated.
"What are you worried about?" Lin Zidan looked at Zhang Jing and hesitated, put down the cup in his hand and said puzzled.
"Chen Lin and his son! When we signed the contract with them, we were only their supplier. They could only ask us to get the goods, and we could only supply them. If we expand the scope of supply and establish more distributors, Will I break up with them? At that time, I will have to resort to the legal level or something, unless..." Zhang Jing's fingers tapped the table lightly.
"Ding Ling Ling ~" A burst of cell phone ringing interrupted the conversation between the two. Lin Zidan saw that Li Manrui was calling, so he turned on the speakerphone and put it on the table to ask her what was going on.
"Daniel, it's your birthday in two weeks. Are you going to spend it at home or go out with friends?" Li Manrui's voice sounded very gentle. Since Lin Zidan went to college, the time for the two of them to meet Suddenly a lot less, so she still misses her son very much.
"Probably spend it outside, it's an ordinary birthday, you don't have to worry too much." Lin Zidan glanced at Zhang Jing with a smile at the corner of his mouth~lightnovelpub.net~ said embarrassedly.
"Auntie, don't worry, we will celebrate him outside with the people in the company." Zhang Jing took the opportunity to say.
"Oh, Zhang Jing is also here, well, Daniel, you all have to take good care of yourself outside, eat well and dress warmly" Li Manrui couldn't help explaining when Zhang Jing was also there.
"Okay, Mom, we're talking about something, I'll call you again when I have time!" Lin Zidan interrupted when he heard Li Manrui explaining everything on the phone in great detail.
"Oh, are you in the company? Okay, okay, then you can be busy." Li Manrui said quickly.
After Lin Zidan cut off the phone, Li Manrui held the mobile phone in her hand, and a touch of sadness rose in her heart. It was not so difficult to communicate with her son, and the child went to school again.
"Alas! You grow up in the blink of an eye..." Li Manrui couldn't help sighing.
"HiMarry, there is a foreigner who is applying for a manager." A business desk went to her small office and reported.
"Applying for a manager?" Li Manrui looked inexplicable. The job advertisement she posted before was two or three months ago. At first, some people came, but they were all young people. She felt that it was inappropriate. At that time, Miranda suggested herself , so there will be no further advertisements.
Li Manrui walked from the small office to the front desk, and saw a tall woman with brown hair, holding the menu in the store in her hand and turning her back to her page by page.
"Hello, I'm Marry, I heard you want to apply for a manager?" Li Manrui asked softly.
"Oh, hi, hello, my name is Hailey, I want to apply for your manager here." The woman turned around and smiled politely.
