Kneeling in front of my wife’s tombstone and crying bitterly, I was reborn

Actually, there is nothing much to see in this small factory.

The honeycomb briquette stove factory mainly produces stove cores. It is a relatively large kiln located at the innermost part of the factory.

In front of the kiln mouth is a dam with factory tents on both sides. One side is where workers make furnace blanks, and the other side is where the furnace cores for burning paper are stacked.

There is also an operating room with iron sheets covering the furnace core, and a warehouse.

That’s basically it. It’s extremely simple.

The main thing is that except for the kiln and paper burning furnace core which require some technical skills, the rest of the processes in this factory are very simple.

Even so, the Fengfan Honeycomb Briquette Stove Factory had thirty workers, which was indeed not considered a small factory in the countryside in the 1990s.

"Boss Shen, the factory is so small and so simple. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you!" After accompanying Shen Qiansan to visit the factory, Zeng Changfeng said to him embarrassedly.

Shen Qiansan waved his hand. He did not mean to look down on the small factory. He said, "Any enterprise starts small and grows big. Director Zeng, there is no need to belittle yourself."

Zeng Changfeng was stunned for a moment. No matter whether it was the first time he saw Shen Qiansan in Hongbin Building or this time when he saw him in the factory, he always felt from the bottom of his heart that Shen Qiansan was a person who was not easy to deal with, and might even be the kind of person who was too arrogant.

Otherwise, why would he not give me any face when I invited him to dinner?

But he didn't expect that Shen Qiansan actually told him not to underestimate himself.

Is this encouragement?

For a moment, Zeng Changfeng started to think too much.

Boss Shen, does this mean that he doesn't think highly of his honeycomb coal stove factory?

He couldn't guess what Shen Qiansan was thinking, so he said awkwardly, "Boss Shen is right. It's just that the honeycomb coal stove itself doesn't have much technical content. If we want to compete, we have to keep the price low. Otherwise, we won't be able to sell it, and it's hard to expand."

He did not dare to exaggerate to Shen Qiansan, so he told the truth first, and then changed the subject, "However, the furnace core of our Fengfan honeycomb coal furnace factory is very good. It has greater firepower and saves more coal than the honeycomb coal furnaces made by other manufacturers. The market recognition is still very high."

Shen Qiansan nodded. Zeng Changfeng was right. The key to whether a honeycomb coal stove is good or not lies in the stove core.

As for whether Zeng Changfeng’s statement that his furnace core was good was true or not, he currently had no idea.

Although he remembered the appearance of the fire table he had seen in his previous life, he did not understand the paper burning technique in the furnace core, so it was difficult to draw a conclusion.

Just observing the workers making the furnace blanks, I can see that they are very skilled, so they must be experienced workers.

He said calmly, "Is there any basis for what Director Zeng said?"

Zeng Changfeng said: "Our furnace core has been improved through process technology and has won the city's science and technology innovation award."

"In addition, in the entire Qingwa City, our factory's furnaces account for more than 65% of the market share, and those who have used them all say they are good."

Shen Qiansan looked at Zeng Changfeng in surprise. It was indeed quite convincing that he could win the city's science and technology innovation award.

However, what surprised him was not this, but the market share that Zeng Changfeng mentioned.

Not that he thinks a market share of more than 65 percent is that big.

No matter how big it is, there are only so many in Qingwa City.

As the largest furnace factory in Qingwa City, it is normal for Fengfan Honeycomb Briquette Furnace Factory to have a larger market share, which does not mean anything.

What surprised him was that Zeng Changfeng actually told him the market share.

This was in 1991, and most companies had no concept of marketing and were almost all savage in their attacks.

Zeng Changfeng has this awareness and gave specific data, which shows that he has put a lot of effort into the market.

This is clearly a business talent!

Glancing at Zeng Changfeng, Shen Qiansan said, "Is Director Zeng mainly responsible for the management of the factory or for the production process?"

Zeng Changfeng said: "I have such a small factory, what's the point of distinguishing between the main and the secondary? I am in charge of both the operation and production."

After that, he said with some complacency: "I was the one who came up with the improvement of the furnace core process in our factory, and the city's science and technology innovation award was awarded to me."

Shen Qiansan smiled, "Director Zeng is really an all-rounder!"

Generally speaking, people who engage in scientific research or technology are different from those who engage in management. Whether it is personality, interest or knowledge structure, it is difficult to balance the two. People are usually only good at one aspect, and it is actually difficult to have both.

Of course, there are such people.

Shen Qiansan had also met him in his previous life.

However, from the perspective of long-term career development, people who focus on one direction will ultimately achieve higher achievements.

Many people with a technical background fall behind in their technical skills when they later move into management positions.

Zeng Changfeng said: "How can I be called a jack of all trades? I have to support thirty or forty workers. If I don't try to sell more stoves, I won't have the money!"

As they were talking, the group arrived at the door of the warehouse.

The door of the warehouse was not closed, and from the outside one could see a lot of honeycomb coal stoves piled up inside, in various sizes and specifications.

Zeng Changfeng said: "Boss Shen, come in and take a look at our finished furnace."

Shen Qiansan waved his hand, "I won't look at the finished product."

He was not buying any stoves, and even if he bought the Fengfan Honeycomb Briquette Stove Factory, he would not need these honeycomb briquettes stoves, so how could he be interested in looking at any finished stoves.

When Zeng Changfeng heard him say this, his smiling face froze, and he felt that Shen Qiansan's plan to buy the honeycomb coal stove factory was about to fail.

is not that right?

Would people buy a factory if they don’t even look at the products?

It's obvious that he doesn't like it!

Not only him, but Zhao Hanyu and Zhou Xiaozhou also felt so after hearing it.

To be honest, the two of them were not optimistic about such a honeycomb coal stove factory with little technical content.

Wouldn't it be more profitable to do any other business than this?

Zhao Hanyu had already figured out how to refuse Zeng Changfeng.

After all, we can't let the third brother say the word of refusal.

If anyone wants to be a bad guy, he should be the one.

Zhao Hanyu was about to speak when Shen Qiansan spoke first, "Director Zeng, is there a furnace burning? Let's go and see how strong the fire is."

Since Shen Qiansan had already spoken, Zhao Hanyu naturally couldn't immediately say that he didn't want to buy it, so he could only put it on hold for the time being.

Zeng Changfeng felt a glimmer of hope and said quickly, "Yes, yes, there is a stove burning in the desk, in the living room of my house, and in the cafeteria. Which one do you want to see, Boss Shen?"

It's winter now, and other families haven't yet started to warm themselves by the fire, but his company is a honeycomb coal stove factory, with lots of stoves. People in the office and at home are all burning fires for warming themselves.

Shen Qiansan said: "Let's go to the office and take a look!"

"Okay, okay!" Zeng Changfeng agreed hurriedly, leading the way, taking Shen Qiansan and others towards the office.

It is called an office, but in fact it is just a side room at the very edge of Zeng Changfeng's house. It is located close to the main gate, making it convenient for dealers to purchase goods, and even the need for a doorman is eliminated.
