Seeing Li Dafu hesitating, Feng Yu did not say anything and took a sip of tea. Feng Yu decided to let Li Dafu decide himself. Even if Li Dafu decided, he might not be able to be the top management. He must let Feng Yu see that Li Dafu has the ability to lead Bing City Machinery Company to grow rapidly. At least, he should be able to do it in the motorcycle and automobile projects.
"General Manager Feng, can I ask if I sell my company and buy your company's shares? What position will you give me?"
Li Dafu was smart. He knew that being a shareholder does not mean he will be able to enter the management team.
"What position do you want? Let me be clear. The company does not have a lot of shareholders, and there is no board of directors. The shareholders' meeting is only held once every quarter, and there are many people who do not attend. That's why the management team is mainly the General Manager, a few deputies, branch factory directors, etc. What is your target? "
If Li Dafu wanted the position of the General Manager, then there was no need to talk about it. Li Mingde's role in Bing City Machinery Company was irreplaceable. Li Dafu does not know anything about agriculture machinery, and Feng Yu will not let him take over the company.
"I want to be in charge of the automobile project. Can I be the Deputy General Manager?" Li Dafu asked.
"Currently, the company has a General Manager and 5 Deputy General Managers. Another shareholder and I are the Deputy General Managers. But we are only in name and do not manage the company's operations. There is another shareholder who is only the Deputy Chairman of the Trade Union. His salary is 1 RMB. The other 3 Deputy General Managers had worked in the company for many years. They are familiar with the company's operations and the market. Do you think it is suitable for you to be the Deputy General Manager? "Feng Yu asked. His father was only a Deputy Chairman of the Trade Union. Investment and management were two different things.
Li Dafu had set his sights high. If he was capable, Feng Yu does not mind letting him be the Deputy General Manager. But if he was going to be a Deputy General Manager without any relevant experience, how could others accept him?
Li Dafu could tell what Feng Yu meant. Not now, but he did not say he could not be in the future. Seems like Feng Yu still needs to test him.
Rather than waiting to be asked, he might as well take the initiative to say it and gain Feng Yu's favor.
"General Manager Feng, before I came to look for you, I had done some research and analysis on the market. Forgive me for not paying attention to the agriculture machinery. However, I have my own ideas on the development of motorcycles and automobiles."
Feng Yu raised an eyebrow. Did she take the initiative to say it out loud?
"Okay, tell me about the motorcycle first. Please comment on the development of our Songjiang Motorcycles and tell us what we should do in the future. "
Li Dafu felt that after he told Feng Yu about his ideas, Feng Yu's impression of him would change. Maybe, he might even be promoted to Deputy General Manager.
"Songjiang Motors first introduced 125 CC motorcycles. This is the largest CC motorcycles in the Chinese market. This also proves that Songjiang Motors' technologies are the best in China. Just from its appearance alone, it was already very pleasing to the eye. Whether it was the model design or the performance parameters, they were all superior to domestic motorcycles. After that, Songjiang Motors advertised on CCTV and hired a celebrity to endorse them. The sales were very good and should have made a lot of money. "
"But after that, Songjiang Motorcycles did not introduce a bigger CC. Instead, they introduced the Songjiang 100. The rest of the motorcycle companies started with 50 CC and slowly moved up. Only Songjiang Motorcycles did the opposite and still succeeded! After that, I did some research on Taiwan, Japan, etc. where motorcycles are more popular. I noticed that in those places, motorcycles are as popular as bicycles in China. Many people are willing to buy motorcycles, but they do not want to refuel. That's why smaller CC motorcycles became the trend. I think Songjiang Motors should continue to introduce smaller CC motorcycles! "
After saying this, Li Dafu looked at Feng Yu proudly. He felt what he had said was right. Feng Yu will surely be surprised. Currently, China's motorcycles were all focused on bigger CC motorcycles. None of them had started to introduce smaller CC motorcycles.
But Li Dafu noticed that Feng Yu was very calm. Feng Yu was not surprised by his suggestion. Could it be that someone from Bing City Machinery Company had suggested this before?
Feng Yu was very satisfied that Li Dafu could think of this. No wonder Li Dafu was a genius in his previous life. Feng Yu had told Li Mingde to introduce a smaller CC scooter this year. The model was already designed. It was a 50 CC scooter, and it was targeted at the female market.
Li Mingde and the rest were doubtful about this. They felt that they should introduce a three-wheeled motorcycle and sell it to the villages. It can be used as a small truck, and it will surely sell well. Scooter targeting the female market? Will this work?
Currently, Hua Xia still had the mindset of a man on the outside and a woman on the inside. Many men do not even own a scooter. Why would they buy a scooter for their women?
But Feng Yu knew that the future sales of scooters will be very good. If they do not introduce it now, Songjiang Motors will be one step behind when the Japanese companies introduce their scooters next year. Even if this year's sales were not good, they will not make any losses. It was only a matter of profits.
Three-wheeled motorcycles were also a good direction, and Feng Yu agreed. Feng Yu also agreed to let Li Mingde get someone to design and manufacture the scooters. If they do not have enough production lines, then they will continue to expand. Bing City Machinery Company had sufficient funds, and they can set up more branches. They can also buy over those factories that were overtaken by Songjiang Motors.
Feng Yu was not sure how good Li Mingde's foresight was in the automobile industry. But Feng Yu was satisfied with Li Mingde's efforts on scooters.
"What do you think of the three-wheeled motorcycles market?" Feng Yu asked.
"Three-wheeled motorcycles? That is mainly for places below the county level. The vehicles used to transport goods should be more suitable for the villages. In the cities, if there are sheds, it can replace taxis. "Li Dafu thought for a while and said.
Feng Yu's eyes brighten up. Li Mingde even thought of replacing taxis. Li Mingde and the rest had not thought of this. Three-wheeled motorcycles were popular initially because they could replace taxis. They were known as "Old Cars". They were cheap and fast. Many counties and cities with poor economic conditions used these motorcycles to replace taxis.
In the beginning, there were no regulations that stated that these motorcycles were not allowed to operate. It was not until the popularity of these motorcycles increased that there was a regulation to prohibit the use of three-wheeled motorcycles. But in many counties, these motorcycles were still operating on the streets.
Even when these motorcycles were no longer allowed to operate, as a small truck, they were still selling well. Feng Yu was surprised that Li Dafu could think of this!
Just because of this, even if Li Dafu's plans for the automobile industry were not reasonable, Feng Yu still wanted to recruit Li Dafu to take charge of the motorcycle business. He was more suitable than Li Mingde and the rest of the deputies!
