1987: Sleepless Tonight

Then, Lu Hao bowed to Li Changhe again, "Of course, I also have to thank Director Li and the Second Beverage Factory. The layout of this exhibition was all completed by the Second Beverage Factory, Director Li and others. of."

"Just now, Director Li asked me if I would cooperate with foreign capital and when I would cooperate with foreigners. I can give you an accurate word here, or the next promise. Wanjia Beverage Factory will cooperate with foreign capital, but Cooperation is definitely not based on the transfer of power. Within the Wanjia Beverage Factory, the ones who can speak and make decisions are always our own people, not foreigners."

"The way of cooperation must be that when Wanjia Beverage Factory's products are sold abroad, it must use foreign sales channels, shopping malls and department stores, etc. to sell its own products. The core aspects include product production and product research and development. Product layout, etc., these are all decided by our own people, and we do not let foreigners dictate.”

"Even if there are foreigners involved, it will be as employees, not as shareholders!"

There will naturally be cooperation with foreigners, but the way of cooperation is not to sacrifice property rights or management authority, but to cooperate in sales.

If you want to make your products popular around the world and position your products not only within the province, but also within the country, and aim at the international market, you will inevitably have contact with foreigners, and you must Use foreigners to promote your products in the international market.

This is just like when foreigners enter the domestic market. They have to hire many domestic personnel to help with production and publicity. Chinese people know the Chinese people best, so it is the Chinese people who can best achieve the goal and do something. can produce satisfactory results.

This is not only useful for Chinese people, but also for foreigners.

"Boss Lu has confidence in his products. It is difficult to even leave Hubei Province at present. He actually wants to go international, cooperate with foreigners, and let them sell your products. You don't think about why they want to Help sell your products?" Li Changhe asked.

This exhibition is not so much a grand gathering of large and small beverage manufacturers, but rather a grand gathering between the two tigers in Jiangcheng's beverage industry. It is the pinnacle showdown between Wanjia Beverage Factory and No. [-] Beverage Factory.

In response to Li Changhe's doubts and inquiries, Lu Hao just smiled, and then said, "Foreigners can come to our country to set up factories and produce products, why can't we go to their land to produce our own products and earn their money?" money?"

"Or are you saying, Director Li, that you don't allow us to do this? You only allow foreigners to invest in our land, but don't allow us to invest in foreigners' land? Don't you think that they come to invest in us to do something?" Charity, right? And you think that investing in their land is also charity?"

"I didn't say that they came here to invest for charity. Of course they want to make money. If they don't make money and just do charity, how can this business last long? And they don't have such a good heart." Li Changhe said, "It's just you If you want to sell your products internationally, this is a bit of a stretch.”

"Foreigners' products can be sold in China because their products are popular. It is not that easy for our products to be sold to foreigners."

Not all of what he said was an attempt to suppress Wanjia Beverage Factory. In fact, it made some sense, because the current domestic economic situation, including the level of industrial production, is still lower than that of some developed countries, including developing countries. There is a considerable gap.

The products produced under such circumstances are definitely not comparable to those of developed countries. Even compared with some developing countries, they are far behind.

But on the other hand, Li Changhe never believed that his country's products could be sold abroad. Whether they were from Wanjia Beverage Factory, the Second Beverage Factory, or products from other beverage factories, he would Never thought of it that way.

Even though the products of the Second Beverage Factory and other beverage factories have been exported, they are only exported to some less developed countries in Southeast Asia.

For the former vassal country, the people of the suzerain country have natural self-confidence, but for developed countries, many people are not so strong-backed.

Lu Hao looked at Li Changhe and said, "Director Li, what you said is a bit too presumptuous for others and destroys your own ambition. Are foreigners' products popular from the beginning and very good? Is it possible that their products can Always popular, always loved, and our products will never be popular or loved?”

Lu Hao is very good at catching loopholes. In his previous life, with the rise of the Internet and the establishment of various forums and BBSs, he had argued with many netizens on these platforms and had already had experience in this area.

The Internet has just emerged and is very expensive. Those who can access the Internet generally have some status. Many are teachers, professors, and various intellectuals in universities. Their views and opinions are very sharp, because some news about their company, There were also some reviews of the company's products, which he argued with a group of netizens.

At the beginning, he was not his opponent, but as the number of comments and criticisms increased, there were not many netizens who were his opponents, just some professors who debated with him in Kochi, but they were also no match for him.

Li Changhe has never seen the power of trolls in the Internet era, how can he be his opponent?

"Temporary backwardness in the economy and military is not terrible. What is terrible is the backwardness in thinking. Yes, our economic strength, our military strength, including some of our other strengths, are not as good as those of foreign countries. Compared with some developed countries, we are indeed far behind, and there is a large gap, but this does not mean that we will always lag behind, nor does it mean that our products will never be popular. How can we If you are temporarily behind, do you think you will never be able to do it again?" Lu Hao said.

"Physical castration is called eunuch, which is a disability. Mental castration is also a disability. What foreigners can do, we can also do!"

"Wanjia Beverage Factory will always be a beverage factory for the Chinese people, and will always be a beverage factory for Jiangcheng. It will always be the pride of the Chinese people, and the pride of the people of Jiangcheng."

"We cooperate with foreigners to make more money, not to lose all kinds of power. Wanjia Beverage Factory not only wants to be a physically sound person, but also a mentally sound person!"
