Monster Factory

Chapter 426: Customers from afar

Today, throughout the morning, discussions revolved mainly around the acquisition of Landtop Corporation and the recruitment of professionals in electronic technology, because the production of cell phones is the company’s next goal.

A mobile phone had as many as hundreds of modular components. Whether it is Samsung or Apple, the mobile phone manufacturing process is to master several core technologies and then integrate these modules, instead of producing these module parts one by one.

The manufacturing of modules depended entirely on the supporting manufacturers of parts all over the world. From the camera to the battery, to the precision screws inside, there was a very mature supply market.

A good phone, except for powerful hardware, its reasonable design is the soul. It is essential to design and coordinate hundreds of module components so that they are fully coordinated with each other. It is the most basic not to design Samsung’s frequently explosive mobile phones.

Landtop had complete production and assembly equipment, but their production scale was small, even when they were in full action, they could only produce 100,000 mobile phones in a quarter. It was also the kind of mobile phone that was free sent for charging...

"Landtop Company only has more than 400 employees. Now we have obtained information about their employees. According to the preliminary evaluation, there are 153 employees in the company, which meet our recruitment requirements. However, the distance between the two places is a little far, so we don’t know how many employees intend to come here. Programmers and artists can take a little longer time to come, and the rest of the staff is willing to work here, so they will be temporarily arranged in warehousing and logistics."

Ye Qing had a brief look at the information of a small number of people. They were either highly educated or proficient in the operation of the equipment. Some were mobile-phone software programmers and artists.

The mobile phone project was still in the initial planning stage, and the equipment would be moved to the Longxitan factory after the equipment was bought, and ordinary employees wouldn’t be taken over for the time being.

"We have negotiated the severance payment, which will be paid by Tao Jian, the boss of Landtop Company." Yu Huali, the manager of the personnel department, wrote down this plan: "boss, for the talents in electronic technology, I plan to look for between well-known mobile-phone companies through headhunting companies, because, for mobile phone manufacturing, we don’t have much experience. Excavating these experienced talents can make us familiar with this industry more quickly."

"Here is the list of preliminary screening talents."

.................

Today’s morning meeting was seemed to be moving towards the afternoon meeting. Because there were too many things to discuss at the meeting, the most complicated thing about acquiring a company was always the various procedures and documents, not the relocation of the factory.

When the leaders had a meeting, the employees at the bottom were usually happy, because, without the supervision of the leader, they felt they can work more relaxed. The employees were hoped that the meeting will be long; suddenly a customer who had traveled across the oceans in the company’s customer reception area was somewhat unhappy.

He came from war-torn Nigeria, with the friendship of General Mopu and the ambition to expand Onitsha District. His name is Buzz, the chief logistics officer under General Mopu.

Backward Nigeria only produced mineral raw materials and crops. Even if you wanted to buy a piece of clothing, you could only buy colored coarse cloth hand-woven by local peasant women, which was as ridiculous as a sack.

Therefore, before Buzz had mixed up with General Mopu, he often flew to China’s Global Commodity Trade Center to purchase large quantities of high-quality and inexpensive China’s goods and sell them back to Nigeria.

Buzz, who has been mixed with General Mopu, was proficient in Chinese, and had many procurement channels in China; of course, he had become the envy of everyone’s logistics supervisor.

This time, Buzz was in charge, but he deliberately delayed two days in Yiwu to purchase, before flying to Shanghai City to meet the mysterious and unpredictable President of Monster Heavy Industries.

If the Mechanical Colossus Type I left a deep impression on them, then the Master Metal Expert which had led a team to buy the diamond completely left them with tremendous excitement that subverted their outlook on life. With a heavy tank, he ignored any light fire attack and even wiped out hundreds of armed men in a short period of time. Even if the foreign mercenaries came, it wouldn’t be possible, not to mention that the Monster Heavy Industry only sent one tank.

At the time, Jin Liuhai expert said this type of tank was not for sale, but both General Mopu and Buzz in charge hoped to meet the president of Monster Heavy Industries in person to see if they could seek more cooperation.

Buzz arrived late; he had taken a taxi for a long time and found the office building of Monster Heavy Industry. When he arrived at the company, Ye Qing had just entered the conference room and had a meeting with the managers.

Because there was no appointment, the receptionist had to ask him to wait in the client area first, and wait until the president finished the meeting before she could report it. Sitting on the sofa, he felt unusually nervous.

During this visit, he was also entrusted by General Mopu and brought a lot of local products and now he was sitting on the sofa alone, with two big black travel bags under his feet, like a hardship to go to the city to ask relatives to do things.

Buzz could come to China three to four times a year, and every time he went there, he feels the country is undergoing earth-shaking changes. Over ten years ago, he was able to find some sense of superiority from his status as a foreigner.

Now when walking in those big cities, foreign faces could be seen everywhere. He had seen it too many times at the airport. When the foreigners just land, they just shouted "Oh Mika... Oh Mika...", with a grinning mouth like an Ostrich egg.

Why are you surprised?

A municipal airport in China is bigger than any other Capital Airport in the hometown of many foreigners. Was it not surprising that there are more tall buildings than all the countries combined?

In the words of the bosses who did business with him, this was only a third-tier city, which was not ranked in China at all. Shouldn’t you be surprised if you go to a first-tier city?

Buzz had also seen it on the street. A foreigner who had just arrived probably had heard the news of the serious backwardness and molested a little girl on the street. As a result, he was beaten like a pig by a group of angry lads, and the police came and pretended not to see anything funny.

So when he carried two big black bags and wanted to meet the chairman of Monster Heavy Industries, he was stopped by two security guards who were as strong as cows and were holding metal detectors before entering the door. They were polite, but their subordinates were unambiguous and checked the inside and out of the two big black bags.

He presented himself for the inspection in a very cooperative manner, which also made him feel he could not do otherwise, and he was, even more, looking forward to what kind of legend the president of Monster Heavy Industries would be.

"Mr. the President may take some time before he can announce the end of the meeting." The young receptionist, who has been here for the third time, walked up to Buzz with a sweet smile replaced the coffee mug that had been emptied on the coffee table. A strong Blue Mountain Coffee: "Drink it slowly. If you need anything, just call me."

Buzz quickly got up and expressed his thanks in Mandarin with a little Yiwu dialect. When he first arrived, he didn’t dare to show off, and later he would count on this girl to help him inform Mr. Ye Qing.

At 10:30 noon, Ye Qing ended the meeting and went to the office.

Not long after returning to the office, the staff responsible for customer reception knocked in and reported there was a customer from Nigeria who wanted to see him.

"Nigeria?"

Ye Qing was looking at the consumption reminder of his online shopping account. Today, Tianjin went wrong, and the consumption was all 28, 48, 188, and 188.

Compared with yesterday, this is nine cows, a super small consumption of less than a dime. There were hundreds of Pens in total, and he didn’t know what it bought online.

"Where is that customer, is he still in the company?"

"The boss in, he has been waiting for you for more than two hours."

"Let him come in." Ye Qing was very curious, and the only customer who could come on the Nigerian side was General Mopu’s side.

Two minutes later, a middle-aged black man with a short haircut like the close-to-head haircut of Alabama, with two big black travel bags in his left and right hands, walked in with his head.
