Chapter 248 Military Coat for Airplane [Seeking Update]

$79 million?
It was mediocre, which was in line with Lu Yang's psychological expectations.

Others may be surprised and happy about such a thing that has been planned out for a long time, but in Lu Yang's opinion, it is just that.

Let’s talk about the acquisition of Fuli Cotton Textile Factory first.

If only we could get it down.

We need to make some good changes, get the workers back to work, and get the machines in the factory running again.

This solves the problem of raw materials being a bottleneck.

An order worth $79?

Ha ha.

trivial.

Please add a zero after it, Lu Yang guarantees that the order can be completed on time.

"what?"

"Why do you think so?"

"Isn't the municipal state-owned cotton textile factory worthy of your trust?"

"I heard that after your mother remarried, your current stepfather was transferred out of the state-owned cotton textile factory. His original position was deputy director, responsible for workshop production. Could it be that you are complaining about your stepfather for this reason, so you are going to cancel your cooperation with the city's state-owned cotton textile factory?"

"Well, if your stepfather really feels that he has been treated unfairly and is not comfortable in his current unit, I will try to coordinate and transfer him to another state-owned factory as deputy director, or if he wants to be transferred back to the Cotton Textile Factory, I will report it to the Municipal Standing Committee for discussion, and I will try my best to facilitate it. How do you think?"

Sure enough, Lu Yang mentioned this.

Deputy Mayor Xu's reaction was particularly strong.

Not only is it contrary to his industrial park plan, but if Lu Yang does this, as a downstream manufacturer, you will acquire an upstream raw material factory and prepare to produce raw materials for yourself. What will happen to the city's state-owned cotton textile factory that has just started to show some signs of improvement?
Finally, there were no new laid-off female workers in the first half of the year.

Need to rely on government relief to survive.

If this really happened, suddenly hundreds of thousands of deliveries would be needed every month, and the number would gradually increase. The total annual delivery orders would exceed several million, but they would just disappear.

Wouldn't this state-owned enterprise, which is on the decline, have to file for bankruptcy protection on the spot, and the workers would simply be out of work and laid off?
This is no joke.

Although Lu Yang's contract was very demanding, with a three-month settlement period, that was only relative to private enterprises. For state-owned enterprises, that was child's play. They could buy on credit for half a year or even a year, and might not be able to abide by the contract and settle accounts at the end of the year.

That's the calculation.

Lu Yang is just like a bodhisattva. Not only does he keep his promises, but his settlement cycle is also much shorter than that of state-owned enterprise clients.

The volume of key orders is still large.

When the quantity increases, the cost will go down. Once the cost goes down, you can earn more, right?

Deputy Mayor Xu has a scale in his heart.

He has recently visited this state-owned factory, which is the largest in the city, has the most workers and is on the decline, for research.

Get to know them.

It is also clear that Lu Yang's order is very important to the state-owned cotton textile factory, which is currently in a trough.

Compared to this large factory with three thousand female textile workers.

The same is true for the cotton textile industry.

It is also an old state-owned enterprise.

The Welfare Cotton Textile Factory is also on the decline, and is even worse off than the state-owned cotton textile factory.

It's not that he doesn't want to redeem it.

But it can't.

At its peak, the number of workers in this welfare cotton textile factory did not exceed 200, and they were all physically disabled deaf-mute female workers. Even now, all of them are supported by the monthly relief funds issued by the city.

The city’s finances can barely afford it.

But if a state-owned cotton textile factory with 3000 textile workers went bankrupt, it would mean that 3000 families would face the prospect of having no food to eat.

Not to mention that with so many people laid off at once and so many extra social idlers, would there be any big chaos?

The minimum living allowance that the municipal government has to pay on time every month alone is enough to drag down the current municipal government's finances. Who will take the blame?
Deputy Mayor Xu thought he couldn't carry it.

But he happened to be the deputy mayor in charge of economy, and he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

Lu Yang explained: "If you say that, Mayor, I will cry out that I am innocent. My stepfather is doing well at work now and has never thought about being transferred back."

"As for me, the acquisition of this Fuli Cotton Textile Factory is just one of my plans. It will definitely not affect my orders to the municipal state-owned cotton textile factory. On the contrary, I will continue to place additional orders during this visit."

Out of stock everywhere.

At home, for foreign trade, and to prepare winter coats for sale to Big Brother, with all these things going on, don’t we have to continue to expand the scale of production?

No additional orders allowed?

Xu Changping said doubtfully, "You didn't lie to me, did you? So tell me, you were about to continue to place additional orders, but why did you buy such an old cotton textile factory that is on the verge of bankruptcy and full of disabled people?"

Normal people know how to choose.

Lu Yang smiled bitterly.

It seems that I have to explain it clearly. "Boss, let me ask you something. You also said that this is an old factory. If I am not mistaken, its machines are still those clumsy and heavy ones bought from Big Brother decades ago, right? Although the cloth woven in this way is strong, the texture is not good-looking, the feel is not good, and the color is even more tacky. In the past, people did not pursue comfort, but only warmth, and there was still a market. But now, is it not so good in the past few years? So it is gradually on the verge of bankruptcy?"

"oops."

Xu Changping was surprised and said, "You are really capable, if you know everything, why did you buy it?"

He had visited the Fuli Cotton Textile Factory and found that perhaps the most valuable items were the expensive and heavy old machines in the factory workshops. These textile machines were produced in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, during the honeymoon period between us and Big Brother. They were part of a batch of equipment donated by Big Brother to support our industrial development.

Solid is firm.

But now more than 30 years have passed, what value does it still have?
Deputy Mayor Xu really couldn't understand it.

Lu Yang smiled mysteriously and said, "Leader, have you ever heard of Mou Qizhong?"

"You've heard of it, haven't you?"

"That's good."

"This guy is quite capable. I've been working with him recently, hoping to use his channels to sell goods to Big Brother. As you know, Big Brother's place is at a low latitude, and it's very cold all year round. The market for summer clothes is not big, but the market for autumn and winter clothes is very large.

I acquired the Foley Cotton Mill.

The cloth woven with it is definitely not intended to be used to make summer clothes, and summer clothes require the clothes to be close-fitting and comfortable. The old machines in this factory will definitely not meet the requirements.

Therefore, if the acquisition of the Welfare Cotton Textile Factory goes smoothly, I plan to build a new workshop after the reorganization without demolishing the original workshop.

This workshop is no longer a workshop for producing cloth.

It is a garment workshop with an assembly line.

Different from the model I had in Zhao County.

It is equivalent to a Meisite Clothing Factory, specializing in the production of autumn and winter clothing.

The original Welfare Cotton Textile Factory became a supporting facility for it, specifically providing it with raw materials.

As for the styles, they are simple, so I will just make them all military coats first."

This batch of goods was originally intended to be exchanged for airplanes. The military coats are just right. They can be used as both clothes and quilts. The people of Big Brother, who have already started to live a hard life, will definitely like them very much.
