Sail across the sea

When Gao Fan and Bob walked out of Meister's Company, they already had a signed cooperation agreement in their pockets.

The letter of agreement stipulates that if Canghua Technology and Trade Company can provide vitamin C products with a quality not lower than the specified requirements at a price 15% lower than the market price, Meister Company will purchase, and the purchase volume will not be less than 2000 tons per year. .

Signing such an agreement is indeed no pressure for Meister.The price of the same quality products is more than 15% lower than that of the market. Why does Meister not purchase them?
The reason why Dorian wants to grind his teeth with Gao Fan and Bob is to win some additional benefits for the company in this agreement. Feed enterprises are at the bottom of the list.

Dorian did not send Gao Fan and Gao Fan out on the pretext that they were too fat to exercise.Considering that he is Party A and his seniority is higher than these two, so this is not considered rude.

Seeing the two leave, Dorian grabbed the phone on his desk and dialed a number.

"Hi, Kevin, I'm Andrew, your precious son and his Chinese partner just left me."

After the other party picked it up, Dorian said with a smile.

On the other end of the phone was Bob's father, Kevin Hatch, an executive of the Hatch Group. Dorian and he used to be classmates in middle school.Kevin knew about Bob and Gao Fan's visit to Meister Company this time.

"Did they get what they wanted?" Kevin asked.

"Got it, they didn't leave me with any reason for refusing," Dorian said.

"It's really not easy to convince you, this iron cock, is it thanks to Bob, or to that Gao Fan?"

"All I can say is that both young men are outstanding."

"So you think highly of that Chinese boy?"

Kevin heard Dorian's subtext.

If the two are really equally good, due to his personal relationship with Kevin and considering that Gao Fan is from a developing country, Dorian will definitely favor Bob a little bit, and will not say "both are excellent" comments.

"It's hard for me to imagine that this is a businessman from China, and he is so young. As you told me, he is one year younger than Bob." Dorian did not hide his admiration for Gao Fan Appreciation.

Next, he narrated the conversation with Gao Fan to Kevin.Both of them have been immersed in the market for many years, and they can deduce a lot from a few words.

"It seems that Bob's eyesight is really good?" Kevin said.

Dorian said: "This is a young man with investment value. If he was not born in China, but in the United States, I would even want to invest $2500 million in him."

Kevin said: "On the contrary, it is precisely because he was born in China that he has investment value.

"If you think about it, if he was born in the United States, the semiconductor or software industry would be the most suitable for him, not vitamins. But he is a vitamin expert. He entrusted our legal department to help apply for 30 patented technologies. It is said that All invented by himself.

"To manufacture vitamins, the best place is Asia, maybe including China. The labor cost in the United States is too high, and it will lose money to produce vitamins in the United States."

"Maybe." Dorian didn't argue because he knew Kevin was right.

Over the years, labor costs in the United States have continued to rise, and many traditional industries have been unable to support themselves, and they have moved to Asia one after another.The industries that can stay in the United States are industries with relatively high technical thresholds and can obtain excess profits, such as semiconductors, software, aircraft, pharmaceuticals, and so on.

The production technology of vitamins is not difficult and the profit is not high, and American companies have looked down on them.With low labor costs, Asian companies can still make some good profits in the production of vitamins.From this point of view, Gao Fan should be thankful that he was born in China, not the United States.

"Thank you, Dorian," Kevin said.

"So, the Hatch Group is ready to support this young man?" Dorian asked.

Kevin said: "I think we still need to continue to observe. Bob has already taken him to Logo Company."

"Ha, no wonder Hatch Group is so successful. But, Kevin, I can tell you that I signed a long-term supply contract with that kid, and I hope this contract can be fulfilled," Dorian said.

"I think you will see that your contract is fulfilled." Kevin said, hung up the phone, and then dialed another number.

In the next few days, according to Gao Fan's request, Bob contacted a series of companies for him, including food, feed, textile, printing, furniture and other fields.

Vitamins are just one of the products Gao Fan wants to make.He has countless chemical process knowledge in his mind, which is ahead of this era and has strong competitiveness.

What troubles him now is that he has fallen into the difficulty of choosing, and he doesn't know which technologies are more beneficial to take out first.Of course, the chemical industry is very expensive. The more profitable the product, the higher the investment in production equipment. This is an obstacle that Gao Fan cannot overcome.

His idea is to borrow the vitamin product to earn a few quick bucks, and use the money to build other production facilities, which is equivalent to the development of a three-dimensional drum.

With the experience of the Spring Fair, he knows that it is almost impossible to find foreign trade orders for chemical products in China.In this era, China's chemical industry is relatively transparent internationally, and no foreign businessman will come to China to purchase chemical products.

And if there are no foreign trade orders and only relying on domestic demand, it is impossible for Gaofan to quickly accumulate capital.

Take vitamin C as an example. Now even people in China rarely go to the pharmacy to buy vitamin C, let alone add it to feed.However, western countries already have a large-scale feed industry, and the application of feed additives is very common.

If you want to make money through vitamin C, you can only hope for export.

That being the case, when I finally come to the United States, I will get in touch with more American companies and understand what kind of chemical products they need.It is true that they are all meeting these needs in the western market now, but if the products from the east are better and cheaper, why would they refuse?

"Gao Fan, I have a friend who I met while playing basketball. He heard that I made a Chinese friend and was very interested. He wants to meet you. Would you like to meet him?"

On this day, after visiting several companies, Bob casually said to Gao Fan.
