New idea?
Upon hearing Wang Yu’s words, everyone was stunned, then looked at Wang Yu with hope.
They were already accustomed to Wang Yu's new ideas, and it seemed that every time he came up with a new one, it often meant better profits.
At the moment, everyone was waiting for him to speak.
"I plan to pay back the money first, but this repayment should not be done secretly. It must be done with great fanfare. I want everyone to know that our car factory has paid off all its debts and has finally stood up."
Wang Yu’s words immediately drew continuous nods from everyone. This was indeed the right way to do it.
Everyone at the car factory was currently holding back one thing: many people associated them with being on the verge of bankruptcy whenever they were mentioned.
Many workers faced discrimination outside. To put it bluntly, when the young men from the factory went on dates with girls, many would directly shake their heads and leave upon hearing they were from the car factory.
This was a standard blow that didn't hurt much but was extremely insulting!
"That's right. Let's invite all the creditors, and also invite all the suppliers who were previously owed work. They can choose to settle all outstanding debts in advance, or they can choose to continue paying off debts according to the method of increasing prices by thirty percent."
Wang Yu made arrangements, and Han Jun immediately agreed to handle it.
Then Wang Yu continued to announce his second command, "In addition, I think our current production structure also needs to be adjusted. Some new product structures need to be scaled up as soon as possible to create more profits.
However, we cannot abandon our old business. The new agricultural vehicles and small dump trucks have had very good market reactions. We should strike while the iron is hot. But... there is a high possibility that such things will be imitated by others, so we must also carry out optimization and new development simultaneously.
At the same time, we cannot neglect our original truck business. After careful consideration, I have optimized and organized it. Here are the drawings."
As he spoke, Wang Yu placed the drawings on the table.
"After my design, the engine power system and the overall transmission system have been optimized. At the same time, I have also unified and organized the front and rear axles, brakes, and other areas.
The current products, with the same configuration, have a fuel efficiency improvement of more than 30% compared to before."
Wang Yu's words immediately caused a gasp of surprise from everyone.
30%? Was he kidding?
Although everyone claimed their products were fuel-efficient, the technical content was not much different. The fluctuation in the entire industry was only around 10%.
And Wang Yu now said he could increase it by 30%, didn't that mean he could directly outperform all domestic competitors? Even imported ones might not be so competitive, right?
Everyone looked at each other, at a loss for words.
Their young factory manager was often surprising, but this time it was too exaggerated!
Only Feng Daochun was not completely stunned, but said excitedly,
"Young factory manager, doesn't that mean we have mastered core technology? This can be a huge selling point for publicity!"
"Heh heh, of course. But let's not rush to publicize it everywhere. Once the product is out, I'll make it a blockbuster!"
Wang Yu said with great confidence and a smile.
"Report, young factory manager! Someone is looking for you. They say it's the general manager of Jiangping Machinery Industrial Company, Zhao Guozhu!"
The doorman, Grandpa Sun, suddenly interrupted him, which made Wang Yu slightly stunned.
What? Zhao Guozhu?
The general manager of Jiangping Machinery Company!
Wang Yu immediately remembered the seemingly friendly middle-aged man he had met in Jiangping City before.
"Everyone, let's adjourn. Please carry out the tasks I arranged earlier separately, and report to me promptly if there is anything unclear."
Wang Yu called out, then followed Grandpa Sun out of the conference room and walked directly towards the main entrance.
Well, every time he held a meeting, someone would come looking for him halfway through. It really wasn't ideal to hold so many meetings.
While thinking, Wang Yu arrived at the main entrance and indeed saw quite a few people there.
Leading the group was Zhao Guozhu, whom he had seen before. Behind him were Xia Ping and Bai Yanbing, who had come before, and a group of people from the Machinery Industry Association.
"Mr. Zhao, you, a great figure like yourself, how is it that you've suddenly visited my humble abode? You've caught me off guard. You should have at least called to notify me!"
Wang Yu said very politely to Zhao Guozhu.
When the other party saw Wang Yu, he also showed a friendly smile, "Heh heh, I was worried that my young friend would be busy with your affairs and disturb you, which would not be good. I happened to be passing by the vicinity, so I came to see you."
Zhao Guozhu's words were very pleasant, but Wang Yu did not believe him.
Just happened to be passing by?
What kind of matter requires such a big shot like you to handle personally, and it just so happens to be around Jiangyang County?
And he was accompanied by Xia Ping and others who had previously been rebuffed and left?
However, Wang Yu decided not to expose him and just smiled, welcoming Zhao Guozhu into the reception room.
He arranged for someone to serve tea and pour water for everyone. It was worth mentioning that an electric kettle was used to boil the water, which made Zhao Guozhu’s eyes light up.
"This must be the electric kettle that has been rumored so widely? It's truly amazing."
Zhao Guozhu praised, with an expression of admiration.
"It's nothing, just a trifle I tinkered with."
Wang Yu was generous and let the other party observe freely. Anyway, he had already sold quite a few, and it was estimated that they had already been taken apart completely. It was the same as his new agricultural vehicles. Sooner or later, someone would imitate them. As long as he kept launching new products, he would always be at the forefront of the times!
"Heh heh, even tinkering can produce things that many people cannot, my young friend. Your future is limitless!"
Zhao Guozhu chuckled, sipped his tea, and then looked at Wang Yu.
"Actually, let me put it this way, I'm here this time specifically to discuss something with my young friend."
Zhao Guozhu decided not to beat around the bush and spoke directly to Wang Yu.
"Oh? Mr. Zhao, please speak freely."
"Actually, I want to invite my young friend to join our Machinery Industry Association. Xia Ping and the others did have some minor conflicts with you before, so I dealt with them severely.
Last time I sent them to see you, I thought we could all smile and forget the past, and become one family. But I don't know what they did to offend you.
You guys... why aren't you coming to apologize quickly?"
As he spoke, Zhao Guozhu gave Xia Ping and the others a stern look.
They immediately understood and apologized to Wang Yu in unison.
"Uh, this won't do. We didn't have any conflict in the first place." Wang Yu quickly stopped Xia Ping and the others.
This old fox Zhao Guozhu was using a strategy of "advancing by retreating." On the surface, it seemed like an apology, but in reality, if Wang Yu accepted this apology, it would make him seem aggressive, and Xia Ping and the others would appear to be the victims.
"Mr. Zhao, to be honest, I really have no interest in joining your Machinery Industry Association."
Wang Yu explained to Zhao Guozhu.
"Don't rush, my young friend, listen to me about the benefits of joining first."
Zhao Guozhu stopped Wang Yu's refusal.
"There are many benefits to joining our Machinery Industry Association. Firstly, we have more and richer sales channels, so you don't have to worry about products not selling..."
Before Zhao Guozhu could finish speaking, the doorman Grandpa Sun came in again to interrupt them.
"Young factory manager, this is bad! A lot of people have come from outside. Miss Wu Lingling is leading many people, and they've come to give us money!
Money, lots and lots of money!"
Grandpa Sun's lips were already trembling.
