Chapter 60: Beautiful Genius Lu Manman (Subscription Request)
“As long as you can find the source of goods, you can buy it with confidence. No matter how much it costs per ton, it is much cheaper than before. At least it is more than half cheaper, maybe only one-third of the previous price.” Yang Hai said indifferently.

If you think the current price is too expensive, you will never have the opportunity to get a bargain at such a low price again.

Yang Hai is a reborn person, so he naturally knows this well. Compared with the future prices, the current prices are simply a bargain.

Especially Laotian rosewood, the current market price is only more than 8000 yuan per ton, and these are the best large materials and boards. No matter how much money you have in the future, it will be difficult to buy it in the market.

As for the price, the future price will be hundreds of times, or two or three hundred times higher. In a dozen years, the best Laotian rosewood pieces and boards will be worth more than 800 million per ton.

And they don't weigh it, they just look at the material and negotiate the price, just ask how much is this piece of material, no matter how heavy it is.

So now as long as there is stock, including this kind of top-quality large materials and plates, there is no need to hesitate any longer, just buy them directly, even if the price is a little higher.

And how much more expensive can the price be? The market price is 8000 per ton, and a 1000 increase is already a lot, and those timber merchants will definitely be very happy.

Yang Hai instructed Fan Jinliu to recruit people as soon as possible. In an industry like the rosewood furniture factory, recruiting is not as simple as posting a job advertisement at the factory gate, but requires extensive publicity within the industry.

A new rosewood furniture factory has opened somewhere. It is very large, with high wages and a good working environment. This has attracted some people who want to change jobs or find a job to come to the factory to see the factory and negotiate terms face to face.

Yang Hai arranged for the company's human resources department to go to the furniture factory to organize recruitment work and recruit security guards first. Such a large factory would not work without security guards.

In addition, we recruited people from the factory's human resources department and various departments to fill the gap.

Basically, Fan Jinliu does not need to worry about the personnel and administration of the factory. He only needs to be responsible for interviewing the masters of various technical trades such as carpenters, painters, and carvers in the factory.

Whether it is carpentry, painting, or carving, as long as the masters of these trades are recruited, the factory does not need to worry about the remaining apprentices at all. These carpentry masters, painters, and carving masters will find ways to find people to come and be their apprentices.

As for the furniture in stock, Yang Hai arranged for them to be moved to Huarong Real Estate Development Company. These furniture could be used in some of the houses that were being sold with fine decoration.

Even if the house is not sold but rented out, the room still needs to be furnished, so there is no need to worry about having no place to put the furniture in stock.

As for the red oak in stock, Yang Hai did not intend to waste it. He also wanted to hire people and start the assembly line to process the stock of wood into furniture and produce it.

Yang Hai even planned to open a few furniture stores to try to sell this kind of solid wood furniture made of red oak.

The price of these red oaks is not cheap at all, and is even more expensive than ordinary mahogany. Therefore, the furniture made of these imported red oaks is not cheap either, and is not lower than the price of mahogany furniture.

If the domestic market response is good, Yang Hai doesn't mind importing this red oak from the western United States, processing and producing this solid wood furniture, and selling it domestically.

It was said that Li Ying had contacted Lu Manman, who worked as the assistant to the vice president in the software development department of Apple in the United States.

The two made an appointment to meet at a cafe near the Apple headquarters building in the United States.

"Didn't you go back to China to develop your career? Why are you back to America again?" As soon as they met, Lu Manman was very straightforward and spoke straight to the point.

Lu Manman is indeed a great beauty with a very slim figure and a delicate face, but she does not give people the feeling of a delicate beauty, but rather a heroic feeling. At first glance, she is a very capable person.

"Originally, I went to develop in China, and was mainly responsible for KPCB's investment business in China. But now I have a new boss, and was sent to the United States by the new boss to be the head of the American branch, so I came back to the United States." Li Ying smiled and said frankly.

"No way! Didn't you say that the boss of KPCB is the person you admire most besides the stock god Buffett?" Lu Manman asked in surprise.

"Who has the ability to dig you away from your idol? This is not like your style."

"I am currently working for a newly established Huasheng Investment Company in China. Although this Huasheng company has just been established, its strength is extraordinary!" Li Ying said with a smile.

"And you probably wouldn't have thought that the boss of Huasheng Investment is the husband of our old classmate Shen Ruobing."

"The boss of Huasheng Investment is Shen Ruobing's husband?" Lu Manman asked puzzledly.

"Wait, that's not right! This Huasheng Investment Company, why... does it sound familiar to me?"

"Does it have any connection with the Huasheng Charity Foundation, which is quite famous in China recently?"

"The Huasheng Charitable Foundation is a charity foundation founded by Yang Hai, the boss of Huasheng Investment. Have you heard about it in the United States?" "Please, although I, Lu Manman, work in the United States, I am not an American. How could I not know about such big news in the country?" Lu Manman said with a pout.

"This guy is really amazing. He just casually set up a charity fund and gave out more than 2 billion yuan."

"The most amazing thing is that the Huasheng Investment Fund held a large donation campaign, which happened to coincide with the occurrence of the earthquake, thus saving many students' lives."

"If it weren't for this, the number of casualties would definitely be a very horrific number."

"He also donated relief supplies worth more than 10 billion yuan to the earthquake-stricken areas at the first opportunity."

"Western media are now studying how Huasheng Fund did it. Was it an accidental event, or did someone at Huasheng Fund predict the earthquake in advance?"

"Because many things are really hard to explain! For example, the Huasheng Charity Foundation was established not long ago, where did the billions of charitable funds come from?"

"And why did the Huasheng Charity Foundation deliver a large amount of relief supplies as soon as it was established? They were stored in Tianfu City. After the earthquake, these supplies were immediately delivered to the disaster area and donated to the victims."

"There is only one reason that can explain it, that is, someone had predicted the occurrence of this earthquake in advance, so they made arrangements in advance."

"A charity organization donated to all the schools in several counties and held a donation ceremony at the same time, which was exactly half an hour before the earthquake."

"So, if it was really the Huasheng Charity Foundation that predicted the occurrence of this earthquake, it would definitely be a major event that shocked the world!"

Li Ying was actually a little skeptical in her heart, and after hearing Lu Manman's analysis, she was even more shocked.

But she also knew that this matter was of great importance and she could never admit that someone had predicted the earthquake in advance.

"I think you are overthinking it. Have you been brainwashed by these Americans? Who has the ability to predict the occurrence of a major earthquake in advance?"

"It was originally a coincidence, but it was over-interpreted."

"If you have the leisure time, you should think carefully about how to return to China to develop and serve the motherland."

Lu Manman nodded and said, "Don't worry, although I am in the United States, my heart belongs to China. I just don't have the opportunity to serve my motherland."

"At the beginning, the three of us had a common agreement that if there was an opportunity, we would return to China to develop and contribute our own strength to the development of China."

"For this reason, the three of us swore that we would not date in the United States, let alone date foreigners. Have you forgotten all this?"

"Even if you forget, I won't forget."

When Li Ying heard Lu Manman say this, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

"Really? Then your chance has come now. If you want to return to China to develop, now is the best opportunity." Li Ying said with a smile.

"Although I am back in the United States now, I am serving the Chinese people. My boss is Chinese, so in essence I am also back to serve my country."

Lu Manman didn't understand so she asked, "What do you mean? What's the best opportunity?"

Li Ying smiled and said, "My boss Yang Hai has recently established a company called Huaguang Technology, which is going to develop and produce high-tech semiconductor products such as smart phones and computers. He hopes to invite you to return to China to develop and serve the country as the president of the software development department of Huaguang Technology. Didn't you say that as long as there is an opportunity, you will return to China to develop and serve the motherland? Isn't this your best opportunity?"

"Yang Hai established a technology company to develop and produce smartphones? Is this true?" Lu Manman said with some disbelief.

"The domestic market is dominated by low-end and knock-off mobile phones. The high-end mobile phone market in China is almost entirely occupied by foreign brands."

"I have long hoped that there would be a strong high-tech company in China that could develop and produce high-end smartphones."

"But it's useless if I join with my team alone! My team is only good at software development. I'm not very good at other things."

Li Ying shook her head and said, "You don't have to worry about this. What we lack is your talent in software development. Originally, Yang Hai planned to produce his own smartphones with the Android system, but at the same time he did not give up on developing his own mobile phone operating system."
