MTL - Rebirth Starts at 7 Million-Chapter 3 financial crisis
"Then... what, Leilei, what fruit do you want to eat? Dad bought it for you." Luo Hai glanced at Cao Hongying, who had a bad face, and asked quickly.
"Buy some watermelons." Luo Fan replied.
"Okay, Dad, I'll buy it for you." After speaking, Luo Hai "escaped" out of the ward under Cao Hongying's bad eyes.
"Hey! I don't even know what to say about your dad, he's like a piece of wood, usually he can't hold back a fart at home for a long time, and it's always disgusting to say a few words to him, how old he is, and this picture Virtue, I really don't know how I liked him in the first place?"
Hearing Cao Hongying's scolding, the corner of Luo Fan's mouth rose slightly, how many years had he not heard such words?
Before Luo Hai's accident, Cao Hongying always liked to say a few words about him, because Luo Hai was a boring gourd, with a tired temper, and doing things slowly and leisurely.
And Cao Hongying is an impatient person, and can't get used to Luo Hai's virtue, so she always rambles a few words.
But since Luo Hai's hemiplegia, Cao Hongying never said a word about Luo Hai's bad, for fear of irritating Luo Hai.
Luo Fan still prefers to watch his father get trained than his respectful parents, so he has to stop Luo Hai from signing the contract anyway.
"Mom, what contract is my dad going to sign?" Luo Fan asked, pretending to know nothing.
Cao Hongying was stunned when she heard the words. In her memory, Luo Fan never cared about these things before, so why did she suddenly ask?
But Cao Hongying didn't want to hide it from Luo Fan. After she organized the language, she briefly introduced Luo Fan to the contract that Luo Hai was going to sign.
The contract Luo Hai wants to sign is, to put it bluntly, an equity distribution statement.
The statement stated that Luo Hai invested 7 million yuan and held a 50% stake in the newly established food processing factory.
"Mom, why did my dad suddenly think of starting a factory?"
"On the one hand, it is because of the support of relevant policies, and on the other hand, because your dad sees a few friends who have set up factories with good profits and wants to follow suit."
"But I think they don't make as much money as our family from running a supermarket!
A factory said less than 50 workers, and a lot of wages were paid out in one month. In addition to the wear and tear of various equipment, the initial cost was very high.
In case the products produced do not have good sales channels, they may still accumulate in their hands. At that time, let alone making money, they will be worried to death.
In comparison, opening a supermarket is much more stable. There are two large supermarkets in our county-level city. I don’t know how many people go there every day. If our family can open another large supermarket, it will definitely make money. "
What Luo Fan said about opening a supermarket is not just nonsense. In Luo Fan's memory, after the development of the city's Beicheng District in 2010, a new large supermarket was opened. Until 2022, they will still be these three large supermarkets in the city. , the business is quite stable.
Compared with investing in a factory, opening a supermarket is obviously more suitable for their family, and Luo Hai and Cao Hongying have run supermarkets before, and they are more experienced in opening another one.
Cao Hongying, who was sitting beside the hospital bed, looked a little surprised after hearing what her son said. She didn't expect Luo Fan, who had never cared about these things, to say such insightful words.
In fact, Cao Hongying also felt that the risk of setting up a factory was a bit high, but Luo Hai appeared very confident and fighting spirit this time. After so many years, Cao Hongying rarely saw Luo Hai being so interested in one thing, so he did not stop him.
But now hearing Luo Fan's words, Cao Hongying also thinks it's better for their family to open a supermarket.
Seeing Cao Hongying's thoughtful look, Luo Fan knew that his mother should have listened to his words.
Luo Fan's words had a great influence on Cao Hongying, which was due to Luo Fan's outstanding achievements from childhood to adulthood.
From the first grade to the junior high school, Luo Fan's exam was always the top three in the class. Later, he was admitted to the city's No. 1 middle school and fell out of the top three in the whole school.
At this time, the only criterion for judging whether a child is a good child and whether he has a future is his grades.
Luo Fan's achievements are here, and Cao Hongying naturally attaches great importance to his words.
After a while, Luo Hai came back with half a watermelon.
Cao Hongying's temperament is relatively straightforward, and she doesn't talk nonsense to Luo Hai, she said straight to the point: "Lao Luo, I just talked to my son about your plan to set up a factory. My son and I both think that our family is more suitable than running a factory. Open another supermarket."
Luo Hai was stunned when he heard the words. He first turned his head and glanced at Luo Fan lying on the hospital bed, and then at Cao Hongying, not knowing what to say for a while.
"Dad, my mother didn't talk nonsense. It's not her intention, and I'm not very optimistic about setting up a factory." Luo Fan said.
"Why are you not optimistic? I think your uncles are doing well." Luo Hai asked.
"Dad, do you know about the financial crisis?"
Luo Hai nodded.
"The impact of the financial crisis in 2008 has not completely faded away. Most of the factories we set up here are engaged in import and export of food and clothing processing.
The factory that our family wants to build also has foreign investment, so it must also go in this direction.
Last year, my uncles who set up factories ran around for the sales channels of their products. Dad, you also received a lot of their goods and sold them in our supermarkets, right? "
"But isn't the financial crisis over?" Luo Hai asked with a frown.
"It is in the past, but the impact is still there. Economic recovery is far more difficult than economic construction, and the impact of the financial crisis will be gradually revealed in the next few years.
Investing in a factory now, and entering it in 1949..."
"Ding bell bell~" Luo Hai's phone ringing interrupted Luo Fan's words.
Luo Hai took out his mobile phone and glanced at the caller ID, then hesitated to answer the call.
"Lao Luo, what's the matter with you? Didn't you agree to sign the contract today? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"Lao Cheng, my son was hit by a motorcycle just now. He suffered a serious concussion. He is still lying in the hospital right now. I really can't walk away."
"Your son was bumped? Didn't he take the college entrance examination today? How could he be bumped?"
"I don't know the specifics. In short, his current situation is not very good. Let's talk about the contract later!"
"But now the foreign businessman is very unhappy. He said that he would like to cooperate with another person."
Luo Hai was silent when he heard the words. Luo Fan's words had a great impact on him just now. At this moment, his mind was full of the scenes when those friends begged him to get more goods last year.
Luo Hai's friends told him that the financial crisis is over, but now Luo Fan told him that the financial crisis is over, but the impact is still there and will last for a long time.
Luo Hai didn't want to risk the family's future.
Thinking of this, Luo Haichao said to the other end of the phone, "Lao Cheng, please help me and tell the foreign businessman, I really can't get away from my son's situation. Let's talk about it when my son's situation is stabilized!"
