Chapter 86 Investment and construction of factories

After the first batch of Jianlibao canned drinks came out of the work in a hurry, they became well-known in the small circle of the Sports Committee, and were highly valued as the only designated beverage of the Chinese Olympic delegation.

In order to ensure that this orange-yellow drink can be fully supplied to the [***] group to Los Angeles, the above has also given great care to the production of Jianlibao. Fan Wuzhi played the signboard of Hong Kong investment in the mainland, and ordered two production lines with PepsiCo, one in Guangdong and the other in Miyun, a suburb of Yanjing, to recruit employees to build factories in China with the concept of foreign capital.

Many things in China make people feel very magical, as long as the concept of introducing foreign capital is put on, everything becomes logical, if Fan Wuzhi wants to build a factory, then it will not work at all, and someone will immediately jump out and point at his nose and say that capitalism has been restored. But in the name of foreign capital, these concerns no longer exist.

It can even be said that he will get more preferential policies from it.

Recruitment is also very smooth, although everyone still prefers to compete for a few jobs allocated by the country, but due to the large gap in job demand caused by the return of educated youth to their hometowns in the past few years, there are many idle people in society, among these people, there are many young people with academic qualifications and ability.

For some reasons, it was inconvenient for Fan Wuzhi to directly throw out his own recruitment plan to go into battle shirtless, so he entrusted Bai Kening, a partner of PepsiCo, who provided the equipment, to come forward to help him carry out this recruitment activity, which made the Jianlibao factory put on a mysterious coat.

Since the two Jianlibao factories in the north and south need about 1,000 employees, it is not a trivial matter, after all, this is the first canned beverage factory of a certain scale put into production in China. Although Fan Wuxian has made up a lot of foreign capital under the guise of foreign capital, there are not a few people in the upper echelons who know the inside story, but there is no need to break it.

For the upper echelons, they need to decide the direction of policy through the observation of new things.

Bai Kening has an American passion for work, and soon he pulled a team of more than a dozen people over to conduct on-the-job training for the employees and managers of Jianlibao Factory, because it is the standard of the same industry, the implementation is very easy, and he basically copied all the sets of his PepsiCo company.

A month before it was put into production, Bai Kening basically followed up the whole process, and even Fan Wuxian began to wonder if he had met the legendary internationalist warrior? Of course, all of this needs to be paid, connecting the two production lines, as well as the initial investment, the wages payable to the workers, and the training costs, etc., Fan Wuxi spent a total of almost tens of millions of yuan, although his money came easily, but he also felt a little painful.

Fortunately, these are two factories that are wholly owned by themselves.

During this period, Director Zhang once came to have a look and was very interested in this beverage factory dressed as a Hong Kong-funded factory. Fan Wuxian naturally knew that he was coming to explore the way instead of Director Song, after all, it was a little inappropriate to come over in person as a high-level person like Director Song.

"It's a luxury, isn't it?" Director Zhang weighed a Jianlibao jar and said with some emotion.

Fan Wuxian smiled and said, "It's not a luxury, compared with Coca-Cola, our drink is safer, more practical, closer to the consumption level of the Chinese people, and the price is only one-third of Coca-Cola." ”

"In that case, will it be a loss?" Director Zhang felt a little incredible.

"Hehe, it's just a small amount of money, after all, I still have to feed such a large group of people." Fan Wuxian said with a smile.

"Is this thing really as amazing as you say? Can you relieve fatigue and recover quickly? Director Zhang asked.

Fan Wuxian replied, "The effect should be there, but it may not be as exaggerated as in the publicity, and the advertising effect is always a little boastful!" However, the main ingredient of Jianlibao is the electrolyte with the surname of weak alkali, which is improved for regulating the body's acid-base balance and restoring the electrolyte imbalance caused by excessive exercise. ”

"Oh, if it works!" Director Zhang nodded, and then asked, "I heard that you have sponsored a lot of Jianlibao drinks for the Olympic team?" Why don't you sponsor some money again? ”

Fan Wuxi suddenly replied with a bitter face, "It's not easy for people to work hard!" Sponsoring a drink is already a loss of money, after all, my factory has just been built, and there are many places to spend money! In case the wind changes one day, it is still a question whether the investment of these two factories can be recovered. ”

Director Zhang shook his head and said, "The policy of reform and opening up will never change, at most it will be adjusted in details, but it will never change in the general direction, which is agreed from top to bottom, and no one can easily change it, so you can do it with confidence!" As long as you operate in accordance with the law and pay taxes according to the regulations, there will be no problems. ”

The canned beverage production line is actually very mature, what is lacking is nothing more than the lack of packaging and printing, probably people in this era are still accustomed to living a step-by-step life, so the general beverage packaging in China is simple and poor, simple text description or simple pattern makes the affinity of the product is not enough, and the appeal is naturally insufficient.

Although Fan Wuxian did not directly provide financial sponsorship to the Olympic delegation, he reached an agreement with them, that is, to provide a certain amount of Jianlibao drinks for each Chinese athlete who successfully won an Olympic medal, and to make a batch of Jianlibao products with his own portrait printed on each of them as a souvenir.

Fan Wuxian will naturally believe that these products printed with Olympic medalists will definitely be sought after once they enter the market, just like in Guangzhou, many people cut off the trademark on Coca-Cola beverage cans and paste them in some eye-catching positions.

"In return, we will give each Olympic medalist a certain amount of prize money!" Fan Wuxian said.

"How much can I get rewarded?" Director Zhang is also more curious about this.

China's participation in the Olympics is also a big event, after all, for many years, it has been Taipei's representative to compete, and this time the mainland's entry into Los Angeles is of extraordinary significance, and it is very important from top to bottom.

"Prepare to follow the standards of three, two, and one!" Fan Wuxian explained, "30,000 gold medals, 20,000 silver medals, and 10,000 bronze medals!" ”

"That's a lot!" Director Zhang was also very shocked after hearing this.

At the salary level of 84 years, the income of ordinary workers is more than 1,000 yuan a year, which is calculated according to the 10,000 yuan of the bronze medalist, which is equivalent to the income of ten years, which is really a lot, not to mention the 30,000 yuan bonus of the gold medalist.

"The above also agreed?" Director Zhang felt very strange.

"Hehe-" Fan replied with a smile, "The above means that there is no interference, and it is agreed to tax exemption for them." ”

Oh, Director Zhang nodded, there are above considerations in his heart, after all, participating in the Olympics is also to win glory for the country, face engineering, without a little real motivation is not good, only fame and fortune are pressed on the body at the same time, everyone's motivation is more abundant!

"Why didn't you stay in Yanjing and not go back? Watch out for your mom and dad coming to get you! Director Zhang finally cared about Fan Wuxi's personal life.

Fan Wuxi scratched his hair with a little headache, "Don't you think it's a waste of time for me to go back to school?" ”

"The point is, your parents don't think so." Director Zhang smiled slightly, happy to see Fan Wuzhi deflated.

This thing is really a headache, how could Fan Wuxian have the heart to sit in the classroom and listen to the lecture? There are too many things he needs to deal with, the electronics market, the catering market, and the agency business of some large foreign manufacturers, these are very huge gold mines! If you miss the best development opportunity in these two years, you will undoubtedly pay several times and dozens of times the cost if you want to get involved in these industries in the future, and the effect may not be very good.

"Will be outside, the king's order will not be affected. I'll take root in Yanjing! Fan Wuxian gritted his teeth and said.

"That's it-" Director Zhang pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Your father, Comrade Fan Heng, how is he doing in the Pingyuan Factory recently?" Any ideas? ”

Why do you suddenly ask this? Fan Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of a possible surname, so he asked, "Uncle Zhang, what do you mean, transfer my father to Yanjing?" ”

"I haven't said that, I don't have the ability to do this, I just asked casually, where did I think you would have so many associations, this has nothing to do with me!" Director Zhang denied it, but there was a smile on his face.

There must be something quirky! Fan Wuxi's brain is quite active, how can he not see that Director Zhang's words are insincere.

Sure enough, Director Zhang said casually and lightly, "The issue of converting military to civilian is still in the experimental stage, and the above has always attached great importance to it, the beginning of the Pingyuan Factory is good, and the role played by your father and son in it is clear to everyone, and there are some small things that don't need to be taken care of." In the near future, a new organ may be set up under the State Council to study the issue of restructuring state-owned enterprises, and comrades who are in the prime of life and have experience at the grassroots level will be required to participate. ”

Isn't that enough?! It has been said very clearly!

Fan Wuxian had mixed feelings in his heart, it seems that his father Fan Heng's good words have finally arrived, if he can be promoted to the level of the central government all of a sudden, even if it is just an office under the State Council, the chance of rising in the future is much greater.

Otherwise, it is only confined to the small puddle in the plain factory, and no matter how big the carp is, it will not be able to jump out of the dragon gate!
