Chapter 185 [Nylon Zipper] (Ask a monthly pass!)

Willis heard Wu Guangyao’s promise that he would not take the European route, and his face appeared obviously astonished. Can he cut the price like this?

Isn’t this a threat to yourself?

Aren’t you afraid to find someone to kill you?

But what is said is also very reasonable. These 13 freighters are sold to shipping companies in Greece or Dongying, and they will definitely come to Europe to get a share of the pie.

Sold to the shipowner on Hong Kong Island, coupled with Wu Guangyao’s promise to sign the contract, obviously one less competitor.

"Mr. Wu, I have to admit that you are really a negotiator!" Willis exclaimed.

This young man can not only put the stalker underneath him, but he is also a persuasive expert, making himself unable to refute.

Of course, Willis also thought at the beginning that these second-hand freighters should be sold as soon as possible. If there is a major failure, it will be difficult to sell.

"Thanks to Mr. Willis for his approval, the US$9.1 million is settled?" Wu Guangyao settled down.

"Okay, let's go to sign the contract!" Willis finally felt hearty and said.

In the conference room, the two parties negotiated the details of the contract, and then they were handed over to their lawyers to check it again before signing their name.

Due to Wu Guangyao’s urgent need, these freighters will depart for Hong Kong Island in a week.

At this point, Willis did not embarrass Wu Guangyao!

When I want to come, he also knows that Dongying’s shipping market is very hot recently, and Wu Guangyao is waiting to make money!

European and American ships appear in the Asian market, and their competitiveness is not high, so it is difficult to share too much pie.

Wu Guangyao expects that after 50 days, these freighters will be able to start making money for themselves!

Calculated like this, there are still nearly 9 months left this year, and if you are lucky, you can earn back about 60% of your capital.

If it is not for the high cost of buying a ship, it will become faster.

For example, the last six freighters with an average age of 23 were bought last time. Since the price was only US$150,000 per ship, it paid back in 6 months after encountering a big market.

Of course, if a ship has a major breakdown, it will basically be equal to half a year’s delay, and it can even be bought as scrap iron!

After the freighter's matter was resolved, Wu Guangyao and Kayla came to the London branch of PG Zipper the next day.

The zipper R&D department in London mainly develops nylon zippers and corresponding zipper machines.

The development direction of local zipper on Hong Kong Island is mainly metal zipper and corresponding zipper machinery.

Metal zippers, nylon zippers, and resin zippers are the three major categories of zippers, which are the classification of later generations.

Needless to say, metal zippers are used in many places, such as jeans, jackets, backpacks, boxes, etc.; as the earliest material, metal zippers have always occupied a large part.

The material of nylon zipper is hard. Compared with resin zipper and metal zipper, the price of ordinary nylon zipper is lower. It is the most widely used zipper in the future.

Resin zippers are more expensive than nylon zippers and slightly lower than metal zippers. This type of zipper has better durability than metal zippers and nylon zippers.

To sum up, Wu Guangyao decided to develop nylon zipper first, which is a low-cost zipper, and then develop resin zipper.

Metal zippers can't fall down. Although the cost is the highest, it has a wide range of uses.

In the meeting room, Wu Guangyao listened to reports from Sun Zhou, the general manager and sales department, Thomas from the machinery department, and Peter from the product development department.

"In Europe, we have always been ahead of Dongying YKK in sales of zippers, and have maintained rapid growth. However, there is also a difficulty at present, that is, funding is limited, so it is difficult for us to popularize small customers or remote places." Sun Zhou First report.

"Well, I can understand the difficulty of your sales. Therefore, I plan to try out the agent system in remote places. This task will be entrusted to you. If you are interested in this agent, you can invite you to visit Hong Kong Island first, or Granted directly to agents."

Wu Guangyao did not hesitate. Since the Tsuen Wan Super Factory will be operational in the second half of this year, PG Zipper will naturally increase its market earlier.

The agent is obviously the vanguard to complete this task!

"Yes, in this way, I believe that our market will increase even more!"

In the European market, PG zipper won the championship with 25% of the market share; followed by Dongying YKK zipper with a share of 15%; finally, many European manufacturers divided the remaining 60%.

Europe has a population of more than 300 million (excluding Russia), and the annual demand for zippers is 1.8 billion, and this number is still increasing at a high speed.

Next, Wu Guangyao asked about the progress of nylon zippers, and hoped that in the first half of next year, large-scale production would be possible.

The two persons in charge of machinery and products said that they have basically succeeded in research and development;

Now, while applying for patents, we are improving machinery and products.

Wu Guangyao nodded, perfecting it in the first half of this year, and in the second half of this year, it will be called Burke Machinery. First, try to produce 80 automatic zipper machines.

London was up, Wu Guangyao took Kayla to inspect the Burke Machinery Company in West Germany.

The production of zippers not only requires all kinds of automatic zipper machines (the materials of copper and aluminum alloy are different, and the machinery is also different.), automatic slider punching machines, but also dozens of small machines such as various cutting machines, flat cars, and grinding machines.

These businesses have been given to Burke Machinery. Not to mention, Wu Guangyao is still on Hong Kong Island and introduced various loom demand customers to Burke Machinery. Among them is his own father-in-law factory.

Such a huge business, Wu Guangyao regrets it a little bit. He has only bought 30% of the shares. It is simply making money for others.

Of course, then again, if these machines are not handed over to Burke Machinery, they have to be cheaper to others.

Wu Guangyao is also a shareholder of Burke Machinery at any rate, accounting for 30% of the shares; the most important thing is that Burke Machinery can customize various machinery for Wu Guangyao's companies, which is very convenient.

Henry, the major shareholder of Burke Machinery, gave Wu Guangyao a hug like an old friend.

"Brother, let's go, let me take you to refer to our new factory, and I promise to open your eyes!" Henry said happily.

The shareholders of Burke Machinery are willing to invest;

Everyone has no dividends for the profits earned so far, and they are all used to build new factories and expand the scale.

I even repaid the loan to add various machine tools and other equipment, which can be said to be very willing to invest!

Burke Machinery is now on the right track, not only producing machinery on Hong Kong Island, but selling products to the world.

Of course, the automatic zipper machine developed by Yaoshi Industry is not for sale, and can only be used for PG zipper.

When he came to the new factory, Wu Guangyao really felt the power of science and technology when he looked at the neatly arranged various machinery!

"How is it? Did you disappoint?" Henry said triumphantly.

"I am very excited to see such advanced machinery, I am full of confidence in Burke Machinery!" Wu Guangyao sighed.

Henry happily took Wu Guangyao and Kayla, explaining in detail the use and advancement of the machinery in every part of the factory.
