MTL - King of Industry-Chapter 983 businessmen are profit-seeking
Chapter 983 Merchants are all profit-seeking
With Schultz's promise, Zhao Guoyang is looking forward to purchasing the "Scania" heavy-duty truck engine.
Of course, some things are best left alone.
Zhao Guoyang only briefly mentioned this matter, and did not continue to entangle.
Schultz was also very surprised by his free and easy, and he was even more curious about this young boss deep in his heart.
Speaking of which, Schultz has met a lot of people of all colors because of his big business.
But this is the first time he has seen someone like Zhao Guoyang who has created such a huge foundation at such a young age.
However, after just a few hours of contact, Schultz has already felt that Zhao Guoyang is different.
He is no longer surprised by his achievements.
It is only a short distance from "Xingtai International" to "Rongguang Co., Ltd."
Zhao Guoyang and Schultz chatted for a while, and the Rolls-Royce had already stopped at the door of the restaurant of "Rongguang Co., Ltd."
Because Zhao Guoyang had already talked with Bai Rou on the phone before, when he and Schultz arrived, this President Bai had already greeted him at the door.
Getting out of the car, Zhao Guoyang naturally introduced him to Schultz immediately.
Holding Schultz's arm, he pointed at Bai Rou and introduced with a smile: "Mr. Schultz, this is Ms. Bai Rou, the vice chairman and general manager of our 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.'."
Schultz obviously didn't expect the general manager of "Rongguang Co., Ltd." to be such a beauty, and he was stunned at the moment.
However, he quickly regained his composure, and shook hands with Bai Rou with a smile on his face.
"Ah, hello Mr. Bai! Just now on the road, your chairman Zhao told me that his right-hand assistant is a beautiful lady. I didn't believe it at first, but now I saw you in person After that, I have to complain for you!"
"Miss Bai Rou is not only beautiful, she is simply beautiful!"
Hearing Schultz's flattering words, Bai Rou pursed her lips and said gratefully: "Thank you Mr. Schultz for your compliment! The banquet inside is ready, Mr. Schultz, why don't we go in first?" , talking while eating?"
Bai Rou's proposal, Schultz naturally readily agreed.
On the other side, Zhao Guoyang showed an appreciative smile to Bai Rou, and he and Schultz exchanged arms and walked into the restaurant side by side.
After seeing these two people go in, Mu Yiyi behind him followed up in good time.
What Bai Rou prepared for Zhao Guoyang and Schultz was a banquet combining Chinese and Western styles.
At the banquet, there are not only Chinese dishes, but also Western-style snacks and steaks.
To everyone's surprise, the steak that Mr. Schultz asked for was only medium-rare.
Zhao Guoyang was always prepared for this, and he didn't show too much surprise.
Speaking of which, it was very common for people in the Nordic region to eat raw meat in the past.
Although after the gradual development of science and technology, the situation of eating raw is much less.
But even in the 1990s, people in some places still "remember bitterness and think sweetness" from time to time and eat raw meat.
Seeing Schultz chomping down on the bloodshot steak, both Bai Rou and Mu Yiyi felt a little nauseous.
Fortunately, Zhao Guoyang, who was the main companion, had excellent psychological quality, and chatted with Schultz without changing his face.
After taking a sip of red wine, Schultz looked at Zhao Guoyang and said, "Chairman Zhao, after hearing Miss Bai Rou's introduction just now, the main products of your 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' are jewelry and luxury goods?"
When Zhao Guoyang heard the words, he nodded with a "huh" and said, "Yes, Mr. Schultz. Our 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' has entered the luxury market for two or three years."
"In recent years, our company's 'Fashionbeauty' brand has achieved certain results in the North American and European markets, and it can be regarded as a firm foothold..."
Zhao Guoyang's words were not too modest, but just telling the truth.
In fact, he knows that when dealing with a foreigner like Schultz, sometimes being too modest can make people look down on you.
It's like the "Fashionbeauty" brand. Although it is definitely not as good as those internationally renowned luxury brands, it already has a little advantage among the third-rate jewelry brands in Europe and America.
Of course, such an advantage is based on the low cost of "Fashionbeauty".
After all, on Huaxia's side, both the designer's design fee and the workers' wages are very low.
Like several well-known jewelry designers under the design department of "Rongguang Co., Ltd.", Zhao Guoyang invited them from various small workshops in China.
These jewelry designers, although their design concepts are relatively backward, are superior in their craftsmanship.
Under Zhao Guoyang's guidance, the role they can play is comparable to those well-known jewelry designers in the world.
But their design fees are only a few tenths, or even a few hundredths, of those well-known jewelry designers.
It is precisely because of this reason that the products of "Fashionbeauty" are invincible in terms of cost.
To put it bluntly, "Fashionbeauty" can occupy a place among the third-rate jewelry brands in Europe and America, mainly because of its low cost.
Schultz is naturally not fully aware of the situation of "Rongguang Co., Ltd."
But now he knows Zhao Guoyang very well, and knows that he will never lie.
Since Chairman Zhao has said that the "Fashionbeauty" brand of "Rongguang Co., Ltd." has certain competitiveness in Europe and the United States, it must be true.
In view of this, Schultz said with emotion: "Chairman Zhao is really amazing. Your business has too many branches. It is not only in the production of heavy equipment, ships, heavy trucks and other mechanical products. Shuiqi even dabbles in the luxury market, which makes it hard to be convinced!"
After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang didn't say anything modest, but said with a slight smile: "Mr. Schultz, I heard from you before that in terms of luxury goods, I also represent several companies. I don't know if I can talk to us Let's talk about this situation?"
"If possible, we 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' can also cooperate with you!"
After hearing what Zhao Guoyang said, Schultz's eyes lit up.
He is a businessman, and businessmen are all profit-seeking.
Compared to the meager profits of construction machinery and heavy trucks, luxury goods are definitely huge profits.
The reason why Schultz didn't discuss the luxury goods with Zhao Guoyang in detail before is because he didn't know that his "Rongguang Co., Ltd." has such a well-known brand as "Fashionbeauty".
Now that Zhao Guoyang introduced that this brand has a market in Europe and North America, Schultz naturally wants to get a share of it.
After making up his mind, Schultz nodded with a smile and said: "Chairman Zhao's words are too outlandish! Since we have signed the contract, we are close partners."
"Since 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' is your property, Chairman Zhao, all its products are on the agent list of our 'Clayton Trading Company'."
Speaking of this, Schultz showed a sincere smile and said: "Speaking of which, in our Nordic region, there are also many luxury brands."
"For example, COS, G&S, and J.Lindeberg are all well-known brands in our Nordic region."
After a haha, Schultz went on to say: "Of course, these brands in our Nordic region are definitely not as good as GUCCI, LouisVuitton, PRADA and other first-line luxury brands, but they also have their own characteristics and are very popular. Some middle class welcome too!"
"If Chairman Zhao and Ms. Bai Rou want to introduce 'Fashionbeauty' into the Nordic region, I think it is necessary to absorb the characteristics of our local Nordic brands..."
After listening to Schultz's sincere narration, Bai Rou just nodded repeatedly.
She took a sip of the red wine, and said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Schultz, to be honest, I really didn't know the brands you mentioned before... Could you please tell us a little bit about it in detail?"
After Bai Rou said this, Schultz looked up with joy.
He just nodded, wanting to happen, and inadvertently saw Zhao Guoyang beside him, who seemed to have a plan in mind.
Opened his mouth in surprise, Schultz tentatively asked: "Chairman Zhao, looking at you, you seem to be familiar with the three Nordic brands I just mentioned? I don't know if that's the case?"
When Zhao Guoyang heard the words, he let out a "huh" and admitted: "Mr. Schultz is serious! This is definitely not familiar, it can only be said to have a certain understanding!"
Schultz was even more surprised when he saw Zhao Guoyang admit it.
He blinked his eyes, made a "please" gesture and said: "Mr. Zhao, then you can come and tell Miss Bai Rou first."
Zhao Guoyang didn't shirk, he touched his nose immediately, nodded and said: "Okay, then I will make a fool of myself. If there is anything wrong, please correct it in time, Mr. Schultz!"
After a short pause, Zhao Guoyang slowly opened his voice: "Let's talk about this COS brand first! It is COSCOS, a high-end subsidiary brand of H&M Group, and its full name is Collection of Style."
"Different from H&M, which is close to the people within the H&M Group, the price of COS is higher, and the design is more minimalist. It usually wins with lines, tailoring and shape, emphasizing four-season design, and the clothing style is more refined. The product line includes menswear, womenswear, childrenswear…”
"As for the G&S brand, it is a fashion brand inspired by art. Its full name is GreerSchafe, and it is a brand of GREERSHAFEFASHIONCO."
"This brand has always drawn inspiration from Nordic street art, music and all contemporary things. It respects tradition but is not limited by it. The rough and rustic style reveals exquisite luxury in details. What it is good at is to use contrasting colors to draw The tailoring details of the garments create a relaxed and modified version of the garments, and at the same time cleverly incorporate elements of Nordic art and culture. Its product lines include men's wear, women's wear, children's wear, shoes, etc..."
