Lu Ze couldn't believe Lu Dayou's words.

Generally, it is not easy for a boss who does traditional business to start a business. Especially those who start factories and do business in real estate, they have to be careful in every penny.

Most industrial bosses are extremely repulsive when facing capital investment, let alone directly take part of the shares to others.

Some bosses even prefer to close their doors and go bankrupt rather than to take advantage of outsiders.

Not everyone has this thing.

I have to say that Lu Da is a character who can have such courage at this time.

Lu Ze asked with a smile: "Director Lu, are you sure you are not kidding?"

"Mr. Lu, I'm not kidding. All I said is the truth. If you don't believe it, we can make an agreement immediately." Lu Dayou promised confidently.

Lu Ze shook his head and refused, "You do this, it actually makes no sense.

Even if I temporarily obtained the order from me, my orders will always be completed. What should you do then?

Could it be that you would give your other half of your shares to others?”

This soul-searching question made Lu Dayou confused for a moment. When he had been doing small business for several years, he finally saved money from running a factory, and when he was in a hot head, he took over the Zhenxiao Hardware Machinery Factory that was being auctioned.

I started to make small fuss, and my life was pretty good, but since the scale was expanded, the factory has been hard to bear.

Since the order for [Juewei Baozi] was stopped, the production line that just started has been in a state of shutdown. Not only can the workers' wages not be paid, but the factory's capital turnover has also been problematic.

This completely made Lu Dayou confused, and he didn't know why this happened.

The sudden blow made him no longer have time to think of other ways, so he could only ask for [Juewei Baozi] as soon as possible and ask Lu Ze’s parents for this.

He never seriously considered that it would be very dangerous to do business if most of the business comes from one customer.

Once the customer's orders stop, the company will inevitably fall into a business crisis.

Normally, a factory will develop and expand as the customer's business grows.

But who told him to meet Lu Ze, this slut? [Juewei Baozi] expanded too fast, and his hardware machinery factory developed too slowly, and he could not keep up with the expansion speed of [Juewei Baozi] at all.

This situation not only happened here. [Shiguang Cultural and Creative] Many small stationery factories that cooperated in the early stage also faced the same problems.

The business world is so cruel that there is no reason or favor to talk about.

If you don’t think it through and act rashly and encounter an accident, you can only blame yourself.

Therefore, when doing business, you must not put all the eggs in one basket. Especially for those who open factories, it is impossible to rely on only one customer's order to maintain the operation. You must expand more customers.

Otherwise, once the customer order is stopped, it will be like Lu Dayou, and it will encounter problems that it cannot continue to operate.

This is also the reason why many OEM factory owners have been struggling to build their own brand.

OEM will be out of service one day, and it will be completely finished by then.

So Lu Ze asked Lu Da about this question, just to test him and see if the other party is someone worth helping.

The business world is not a bad person. Although the other party is a very kind boss, it does not mean that he must help him.

If you are a person who is not good at it, it will be of no value to help him. Don't turn around and cause trouble for yourself.

"Mr. Lu, don't worry, as long as I can give me some orders to keep the factory going, I will definitely expand more customers as soon as possible.

I'm fine with bankruptcy, but there are so many workers in the factory and there are still families to support.

Especially those disabled workers, they are very likely to have some hope. They can’t ruin everyone’s hope because of me.” Lu Dayou said, and he was almost crying.

Lu Ze asked again: "What's going on in your factory now? You, the director, ran out, who is in charge of the factory now?"

"The two masters invited are in charge." Lu Dayou responded.

Lu Ze was curious: "Master?"

"Yes, the new machines of the masters who retired from large factories were all imitated by them and workers." Lu Dayou explained honestly.

Lu Ze then asked, "Why don't you let your wife care?"

"My wife is not well educated, and there are elderly and children in the family to take care of. It is impossible for her to take care of the factory.

Moreover, it is not a state-owned factory now, and they are all responsible for their own profits and losses. Everyone naturally understands that the factory is prosperous and the company loses. If the factory is about to collapse, life will be even more difficult for everyone. What else do you need to care about?" Lu Dayou replied helplessly.

Lu Ze nodded, and his impression of Lu Dayou was much better.

The questions he asked seemed to be chatting, but in fact they were to understand from the perspective of whether Lu Dayou was a good entrepreneur and a worthy investment.

Starting a business is difficult, and doing business is even more difficult. You must not only have ideas, but also have a pattern and leadership.

This guy is quite worthy.

Although Lu Da is a little loyal, it will be very helpful for opening a factory at the beginning of his business.

Personal charm is not just about talking about it. At critical moments, you can unite everyone and work together to exert strong combat effectiveness.

Perhaps, this also has something to do with his background as a military soldier.

In the Chinese business world, many big bosses have military backgrounds. The old man from the Chrysanthemum Factory has also served in the army for many years.

Opening a factory is different from doing other businesses. Soldiers have great advantages as managers.

Lu Ze asked him another question: "Director Lu, do you know what is the most important thing to run a factory?"

"I think product and quality are the most important." Lu Dayou blurted out without thinking.

Lu Ze smiled and replied meaningfully: "Only half of the answers are correct, the product is indeed very important, but the quality is not certain."

"What? Is good quality not a necessary condition for a good product?" Lu Dayou asked in surprise.

Lu Ze shook his head and objected: "The quality is really good if it is controlled.

Just like the machinery and equipment you make, if it doesn’t break for ten or twenty years, where will you come from repeat customers?”

In fact, Lu Dayou is right. When he gained reputation in the early stages of opening a factory, he had to be of excellent quality.

Just like buying a Gree air conditioner these days, it will last for ten years without breaking down, and there is no problem with cooling, which is very normal.

But if you buy Gree air conditioners in a few years, sometimes it will not work in one or two years of cooling, which is not uncommon.

Is Gree no longer able to build air conditioners? Of course not.

They learned their lessons and had a good quality. Wouldn't they have been repeat customers for ten or eight years?

Most products and manufacturers will have life control when they reach a certain stage of development. Controllable quality, if you want to make them worse for a few years, you will be awesome.

The so-called quality management also includes two levels of meaning. One layer is the production yield rate, and the other layer is the quality usage cycle. There is no way to do this.

In a few years, many machines, equipment, household appliances and other products will be very unscrupulous.

It will be broken once the warranty period is over, which is very disgusting.

For manufacturers with larger brands, given that their brand reputation will be slightly better, and at least it will make customers lose their lives for three or five years.

That's why Lu Ze said that the product is very important, but the quality is not certain.

"What do you mean..." Lu Dayou was so stupid that he quickly understood what Lu Ze meant, but he didn't understand why Lu Ze said this.

Is it really good to teach your suppliers the skills of being a brutal businessman?

Lu Ze added: "That's right, it's what you understand.

Therefore, factory products are the first priority, and quality must be done well and controllable.

In terms of products, it is not bad to ask a retired master to prevent products. But that is far from enough.

A truly good factory also requires strong R&D and innovation capabilities.

The factory has at least 20%-30% profits and must continue to invest in product research and development. Only in this way can the factory continue to develop products that are popular in the market.

The marketing and sales department also needs to be sensitive enough to continuously collect market and customer demand information, and provide direction suggestions for the R&D department. These are complementary."

"Yes, yes, what Mr. Lu said makes too reasonable." Lu Dayou nodded frequently and could no longer agree.

Seeing that he was so old, Lu Ze was very respectful in front of him. He was not as if he was fake at all. He could be considered as being able to bend and stretch, knowing good and bad, and knowing how to advance and retreat.

After understanding the information he wanted to know, he no longer kept it insincere: "The reason why I told you so much is not just to teach you, but to the suggestion you said, I agreed."

"What? Mr. Lu, you agreed, it's great!" Lu Dayou was extremely surprised and stood up in an instant excitedly.

Lu Ze hurriedly comforted him: "Don't be excited, be calmer.

I won’t take advantage of you in vain. I bought your half of your shares for 2 million.

It’s not that your factory is worth so much money, but that you can use the money to upgrade the production line. With the current scale of Qingfeng Hardware Machinery Factory, it is not able to take our orders.”

"Mr. Lu..., you... I..., I don't thank you for your kindness. Let's see me take action in the future!" Lu Dayou's eyes turned red and he stuttered when he spoke.

As a soldier, he has a deeper understanding of the death of a scholar as a confidant.

Lu Ze explained: "When I go back, I invite a few college students who are professional in mechanical design, cooperate with the masters and make good products.

In the future, I will be my own people. I will arrange for the people below to lean towards you.

I hope you will not forget your original intention and run a factory well.

After the factory scale grows, I have other arrangements.”

"Don't worry, even if I sacrifice my life, I will definitely do the factory better and better." Lu Dayou immediately issued a military order to guarantee it.

There is no need to be so cruel. Just starting a factory is not going to make you die.

Lu Ze shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't be so ruthless. It's important to run a factory, but your health is even more important. If you collapse, what should you do if the factory is done?

Let’s go back today and have a good rest. Come and sign an investment agreement tomorrow. I will let the finance department send you the money immediately.

When you go back, you will pay all your salary to the employees first, just run the factory well.”

"Yes!" Lu Dayou suddenly stood up, responding as if a soldier had heard the order.

Before leaving the office, he turned around and greeted Lu Ze with a standard military salute, which made him laugh and cry again.
