Everyone obediently signed the contract. But soon, they realized that Sun Lijie did not sign it.
"Sun, have you signed the contract?" Someone asked.
They felt that Sun Lijie's contract might be different from theirs.
"I do not need to sign the contract with Tai Hua Trading. I will sign the contract with Aiwa Electronics." Sun Lijie casually replied.
Kirilenko was too excited. He had only invested 100,000 RMB. Only 100,000 RMB. Kirilenko did not expect that small team to successfully develop a pager. After testing, the quality and signal were on par with Motorola's new products.
What did this mean? This meant that there were high profits! Although Kirilenko had invested a sum of money to build the factory, it was nothing compared to the expected profits!
Especially the 100,000 RMB he had invested, he had gotten 10% of the company's shares. This 10% of shares should bring in more than 10 million RMB profits. The estimated production was at least 300,000 units, and this was because of the delay in the construction of the factory. If not, the production would definitely exceed 1 million units!
Although it was still a far cry from Motorola's 1 million units sales last year, Kirilenko firmly believed that Aiwa Pagers would be sold at a lower price. Next year, it would be like what General Manager Feng had said. Aiwa Pagers would be the market leader in Hua Xia!
This investment could be doubled in half a year. Kirilenko was willing to invest as much as he could. He was glad that these people were in Ningbo, his hometown. He was also glad that he had helped Feng Yu to settle things nicely, and this was why he had such a good opportunity!
In the future, even if he had to close down his company, he could still use his shares to become a multi-millionaire or even a billionaire! Kirilenko had made the right decision!
Kirilenko also decided that no matter what General Manager Feng asked him to do in the future, he would treat it as the most important task. Kirilenko's wish to bring his parents back to his side will come true this year!
This group of people sighed at Sun's good luck. The pager factory was close to him, and Kirilenko was able to sign the contract first. But none of them had expected Sun Lijie to own the pager company's shares!
In the past, they felt that Tai Hua Trading was suppressing their sales. But this time, they felt that the supply was too little!
Now, every distributor can only supply 1,000 pager units per month. Feng Yu told them that the number of pager users in the whole country will increase by more than 2 million this year. But wasn't this quantity too little? It could not keep up with the growth of pager users!
Feng Yu had no choice. Although he had started to invest in the factory at the end of last year, it was not easy to find skilled workers. Furthermore, the production lines were all semi-automatic and were not as advanced as in the future. It was quite troublesome to install a production line. But Aiwa Electronics had taken a loan to build a second factory. The address was still in Ningbo, but it was not Feng Hua.
Although the leaders of Fenghua were unhappy, they could not say anything since the higher-ups had spoken.
Ningbo had good policies, good traffic, and low taxes. Feng Yu had no reason to build a factory elsewhere. But if there were any changes to Ningbo's policies, then Feng Yu will not build a new factory in Ningbo.
The leaders of Fenghua were unhappy that the small company they sold had successfully developed pagers. If they knew it was so easy to succeed, they would not have agreed to sell their shares in Daoqiao Village.
Although the initial investment of 500,000 RMB was 4 times more than the initial investment of 100,000 RMB, if the pagers were manufactured, how much profits would it bring to Fenghua? At least a few tens of millions?
The leaders of Daoqiao Village were scolded badly. The leaders who had praised them in the past had changed their tune. They were just short of strangling their throats and shouting: Are you all stupid? Are you all stupid?! For such a promising company, you sold all your shares for just 500,000 yuan!
But the leaders could only accept this result. At least the company was still paying them taxes every year, and there was a factory in Fenghua. If they angered the big boss, he might leave with his technicians and information to build a factory elsewhere. Although there would be some losses, Fenghua would not get a single cent!
Xu Lihua and the rest had asked Feng Yu why he did not expand the scale of the factory. They felt pagers were the mainstream product in the telecommunication industry, and the profits were high. With lower labor costs, they should be able to compete with other countries. At most, they could cooperate with other countries to produce products in those countries' languages. As for the English version, they could produce it now.
But Feng Yu told them a cruel truth. Other than Hua Xia, their patents were not recognized in any other countries. It was too similar to other companies' technologies. In Hua Xia, the patents of those pager manufacturers were also not recognized. If they were to export their pagers to other countries, they would not be able to make any profits from paying Motorola and other companies for the patents.
This was a small pager. There were more than a thousand patents on the exterior, materials, functions, internal structure, parts, etc. Some of the patents had expired, and some were still under protection. If any of the patents were infringed, it would not only be a financial loss, but it would also affect Aiwa's brand.
Feng Yu had decided to change the name of Aiwa to Aiwa Company within these two years. He wanted to retain both Aiwa and Aiwa brands. Now, Aiwa's brand was on the rise, and there must not be any mistakes.
That's why Aiwa Pagers could only be sold in Hua Xia. Feng Yu did not want to be too aggressive and just wanted to maintain a stable growth.
At the same time, Feng Yu told Xu Lihua and the rest to understand the mobile phone technology. This was to prepare for the future of mobile phone companies. Any new technology, no matter how small the improvement, must be timely applied for a patent!
… …
After everything was ready, Feng Yu asked CCTV to change two Super Fans commercials. Aiwa Pager commercials were officially aired on CCTV!
A pager beeped twice, and someone pressed the button. A message appeared on the pager: Manager Li, call me back now. The number is 345678.
After that, a close-up of Aiwa's logo appeared. At the same time, the voice-over was playing. The slogan was simple: Aiwa Pager, Hua Xia's own pager!
There were no celebrities endorsing the pager, and there were no actors or actresses showing their faces. Only one person's hand was shown in the commercial. But in this commercial, there were also celebrities. Feng Yu had hired Zhao Zhongxiang to do the voice-over for this commercial. The whole nation will know who he was the moment he heard his voice. It was too unique!
Feng Yu had only spent 100,000 RMB for this advertising slogan and a 5-year contract. Zhao Zhongxiang was still very happy. This General Manager Feng was still so generous. He had asked for 50,000 RMB, and General Manager Feng did not haggle. He even increased the price. Feng Yu was also happy. Cheap! This was too cheap! He had prepared 300,000 RMB for this pager!
Feng Yu firmly believed that with this commercial and the distributors' distribution capabilities, he would be able to enter the market within a short period of time. After all, the pager market was still in short supply!
