Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 178 What is the most expensive thing in the 21st century?
"Jiang Hai, brother, I really regret it."

Looking at Chen Jianghai sitting opposite, Xu Dong said with a sigh on his face.

In fact, Chen Jianghai had already guessed what Xu Dong was going to say to him, so he pretended to be confused and asked, "Brother, how did you say this?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "Hey! It's just my short-sightedness that prevented me from getting on the boat with you and missed this great opportunity to make money."

The current booming market for electric kettles has made all enterprises in Linghai jealous, and he, who took the initiative to give up the opportunity, regrets it even more.

"Brother Dong, the days are long, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Chen Jianghai said with a slight smile.

"Brother, is it true?" Xu Dong immediately looked up at Chen Jianghai and asked eagerly.

"I am very sure of that!"

Chen Jianghai nodded firmly, "This electric kettle factory is just the beginning. Brother, you don't think I'm satisfied now, do you?"

Hearing Chen Jianghai's half-joking and half-serious statement, a look of excitement suddenly appeared on Xu Dong's face.

"Jiang Hai, don't say anything. As long as you give me a shout, I will get a share even if I sell iron and houses!"

Xu Dong immediately expressed his attitude.

Chen Jianghai smiled and said: "Brother Dong, don't worry, I will never forget you."

"By the way, Brother Dong, you came to me today just for this reason, right?"

Chen Jianghai followed and asked.

"How can it be!"

Xu Dong quickly said, "I've heard some rumors recently, and they seem to be bad for you."

Chen Jianghai raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the rumor?"

It's not always going to be smooth sailing in your career.

Shopping malls are like battlefields, and anything can happen. Chen Jianghai, who has seen too many corporate ups and downs, is naturally not surprised.

"The electric kettle market is really hot right now, and some people are already imitating it. I believe it won't be long before you have competitors." Xu Dong continued.

Hearing the news, Chen Jianghai was not surprised at all and said calmly: "Brother Dong, where did you hear the news? Could it be that your factory wants to do this?"

Xu Dong nodded: "To tell you the truth, our factory is currently researching that heating device. It is said that it is not difficult to imitate."

"So, your factory will also be my competitor?"

Chen Jianghai smiled slightly.

"Jiang Hai, I'm just in charge of the warehouse. This kind of thing is a decision made by the superiors." Xu Dong also said with a little helplessness.

Then, he told the reason.

A big disadvantage of state-owned enterprises is that the factory director cannot decide all matters in the factory.

Just like this time, when the component factory decided to make this heating device, it was actually not Xu Dong's brother-in-law's intention, and he felt it was a bit hasty.

But when other leaders in the factory saw the market for electric kettles, they were all jealous.

Now that other manufacturers are stepping forward to make this electric kettle, they naturally want to get involved.

Not only can you make money, but you can also consume the materials accumulated in the factory. Why not kill two birds with one stone?
Not to mention the leaders in the factory, even the workers below all hope to get involved.

Not only the local demand, but also businessmen from the neighboring counties and cities also came here in search of the smell.

However, the current production capacity of Chen Jianghai Factory is limited, and the price is not cheap.

So these people are wondering whether they can get cheaper products from other factories.

This also indirectly stimulated other manufacturers who originally wanted to imitate this kind of electric kettle.

In fact, even if Xu Dong didn't tell Chen Jianghai about this matter, Chen Jianghai wouldn't have any objections to him.

But Xu Dong wouldn't think so.

The previous cooperation had already made Xu Dong feel a little confused.If they don't communicate with each other in time this time, the friendship between the two people may end here.

What's more, his brother-in-law's current situation is a bit embarrassing, and Xu Dong has to think about it for himself.

Chen Jianghai didn't expect that the component factory would choose to go down the road of copycat products.

As the saying goes, freezing three feet is not a day's cold.

The component factory's current embarrassing situation must also be an inducement for its collapse.

Thinking of this, Chen Jianghai's eyes suddenly lit up. The component factory has a group of technicians!
If this group of people can be recruited, the most primitive team of the R&D department can be built.

I was so sleepy that I came up with a pillow. Why didn’t I think of it when I was looking for it? !
"Brother Dong, isn't the situation in your factory very good now?" Chen Jianghai changed the topic.

Xu Dong didn't think much about it and nodded in response: "Yes, we can barely survive with the funds allocated from above, but this time the leaders of the factory chose to make a heating device for kettles, maybe it can bring the dead back to life."

"Haha, it's not that easy to make money with my products." Chen Jianghai said with a slight smile.

Seeing Chen Jianghai like this, Xu Dong couldn't help being slightly startled, opened his mouth and asked, "Jiang Hai, did you expect this?"

Chen Jianghai said calmly: "It's normal for everyone to rush in when they see the profit."

Xu Dong's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked again: "Jiang Hai, what would happen if the component factory really produced this heating device?"

Chen Jianghai glanced at Xu Dong and said lightly: "I don't like to say what if."

Xu Dong was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Chen Jianghai obviously didn't want to say it.

He can also understand this.

If he didn't even have this little city, how could he be where he is today.

Chen Jianghai followed up and said slowly: "Brother Dong, I want to ask you something."

Xu Dong, who was a little distracted, said casually: "You tell me."

"Don't you have a group of technicians in your factory? Do they have anything to do now?"

"They, the factory has already sent these people to the workshop." Xu Dong replied directly.

"Why?" Chen Jianghai asked quickly.

"Hey, the things produced in the factory have not changed in these years, so there is no use for them?" Xu Dong said matter-of-factly.

Upon hearing this reason, Chen Jianghai was speechless.

To paraphrase a sentence from A World Without Thieves - What is the most expensive thing in the 21st century?
Talent!

This sentence is more reasonable and important now.

Without these talents, could the country have reached the heights of later generations in just a few decades?

Impossible.

Fortunately for the component factory, they actually sent these people to the workshop!
Chen Jianghai just wants to say one thing now, he will decide these people.

Even if the component factory reacts, it won't be able to stay if it wants to!
"Brother Dong, can you help me make an appointment with these technicians? I would like to treat them to a meal." Chen Jianghai followed.

"You want to invite them to dinner? Why?" Xu Dong didn't quite understand Chen Jianghai's request.

"Brother Dong, since you don't want these people in your factory, I'm going to recruit them."

Chen Jianghai directly stated his purpose and was not prepared to hide it from Xu Dong.

Anyway, we have already talked about it for this purpose, and he also knows what is going on in the component factory.

Since they are all about to go bankrupt, they might as well go their separate ways.

He can definitely provide a stage for these people to show off, so that they can continue to shine for the four modernizations, improve their lives, and realize the value of life.
