Reborn as Zhao Ruilong of Handong, I will defy fate.

Chapter 11: Supply Can't Keep Up with Demand! It's That Crazy!

sunset.

A taxi slowly pulled up outside the gate of the Skoda company.

Before Zhao Ruilong and his two companions even got out of the car, people began to gather around them.

"Are you Manager Han?"

Du Bozhong got out of the car and asked.

He assumed the other person was Manager Han, who had come to greet him.

"Hmm~ I wish I were him."

The man chuckled and casually got into the passenger seat.

He pulled the door shut and peeked at Du Bozhong and the other two.

"I advise you to just leave!"

"There are no units in stock, not even one. It's not worth wasting your time going in."

"Of course, if you're willing to sign a letter of intent, you should be able to receive the goods in January next year!"

Du Bozhong was immediately dumbfounded.

"what?"

"Will it only be available in January next year?"

The man chuckled.

"Yes, the prerequisite is that their research and production base, which they invested hundreds of millions of yuan to build in the western suburbs of Hangzhou, can be put into use smoothly in November."

"Alright, I need to hurry to the train station, or I'll miss it. If you're still not convinced, go in and ask yourselves!"

I watched the taxi drive away.

Du Bozhong turned to look at Zhao Ruilong and his sister, his smile more like a grimace.

After much difficulty, I finally made up my mind to not build a food court and instead start a mobile phone business.

Unexpectedly, the manufacturer was already unable to meet the demand and could not get any stock.

"What should I do?"

"What do you mean, 'what to do'? We're already here, let's go inside and talk!"

"That's right, we were introduced by Manager Han's junior colleague. What if they give us some face?"

The three registered and entered the building before heading to the office building.

The marketing department's office is on the first floor.

Before I even reached the manager's office, I could hear someone inside pleading desperately.

"Three thousand? Three thousand units should be fine, right? I brought cash with me. As long as you give me the goods, the money is yours."

"It's not that I don't want to give you the goods, it's just that I really don't have any on hand right now. If you don't believe me, I can take you to the warehouse, and there really isn't a single one!"

"Then could you withhold a portion of the goods you're supplying to others and give it to me? No matter how much the penalty is, I'll pay it for you!"

"Are you crazy? If you really do something like that, what will become of our company's reputation? Alright, alright, you go back now. I'll definitely let you know as soon as there's good news!"

The short, stout, bald Manager Han asked the person to leave the office.

Upon seeing Zhao Ruilong and his two companions, they were immediately taken aback.

"Are you Xiao Sheng's friends?"

"Yes, Manager Han, hello, hello, we just flew in from Jinghai..."

Du Bozhong strode forward, his enthusiasm burning brightly.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Manager Han invited the three of them to sit down.

Without even pouring tea, he went straight to the point:

“We have sent people to Handong to persuade the telecommunications company to cooperate, but it is not clear when they will agree.”

"If you have connections, we can expedite the cooperation. Once our base is completed, we can prioritize supplying you with goods."

Du Bozhong hurriedly said, "Don't worry, we have strong enough connections. One phone call is all it takes for Handong Telecom to agree to the cooperation today."

"But the question is, when exactly will your base be completed and put into operation? What will its production capacity be? Can it supply us with two or three thousand units a day?"

Manager Han was sweating profusely.

"Dude, are you kidding me?"

"If we sell two or three thousand units a day, what about the other dealers?"

"Besides, are you sure you can sell that many units a day?"

Du Bozhong said urgently, "Never mind how much we can sell, just tell us when you can supply us the goods at the earliest!"

"The earliest would be February next year!"

Manager Han took out a towel to wipe his face.

"What? February? We just ran into someone outside the gate who said the earliest delivery would be in January."

"Hasn't this just resulted in another order? If you don't place your order soon, we might not be able to deliver until March."

"what???"

Du Bozhong was dumbfounded.

"Ah what?"

Manager Han put away his handkerchief, unable to hide his smug smile, and said:

"Since you're Xiao Sheng's friends, I'll say a few more words to you!"

"Personalized mobile phones are cheap and easy to use, and they will definitely become more and more popular in the future, with annual sales potentially reaching hundreds of thousands or even millions of units."

“Currently, only our company, Skonda, can produce this product nationwide. If you sign the order early, you will receive the goods sooner than others and make money sooner.”

Du Bozhong nodded repeatedly, then immediately looked at Zhao Ruilong.

"Let's place our order quickly!"

Zhao Ruilong seemed not to hear, smiling as he looked at the smug Manager Han.

"Your company currently enjoys a monopoly, and no other manufacturer can compare, right?"

"Of course!"

Manager Han stood with his hands behind his back and his head slightly raised.

"Our company successfully went public in the United States in March of this year, and now has a market value of more than seven billion US dollars. We have enough funds to recruit talents and expand production."

"Huawei felt that the technology of PHS (Personal Handyphone System) was outdated and not worth investing in, and insisted on developing 3G communication. Although Longxing attached importance to it, its products had only been developed recently, and their performance, production capacity and quality could not compare with ours."

Zhao Ruilong frowned slightly.

As a pioneer in the domestic PHS (Personal Handyphone System) industry, Skoda is indeed now the undisputed leader.

But when it comes to state-owned background, even Longxing, a domestic telecommunications giant, can't compare to them.

Isn't that a bit too arrogant?

The PHS phone wasn't a particularly advanced electronic product.

"What are you all hesitating for? If you want to make money, you have to start early, or it will be too late!"

After saying that, Manager Han raised his wrist to check his watch.

Du Bozhong said anxiously:

"Manager Han, we definitely want to order the goods, but we only have two months at most to rent a shop, renovate, and hire people."

"Moreover, these two months are enough for Handong Telecom's headquarters to build base stations in major cities and prepare for the launch of services."

"But your company won't be able to supply us until February next year. Does that mean we won't have any goods to sell for those two months in between?"

Manager Han laughed and said, "Since you're friends with Xiao Sheng, you can ask him for some goods and get the store up and running!"

"And to be honest, he was really bold back then. He signed a long-term agreement with us, and most of the goods our company produces now are supplied to him."

"So right now, he's the only one with a sufficient stock of PHS phones. If you really need to open a shop in a hurry, you have to ask him for help. I can't do anything about it."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ruilong couldn't help but laugh.

Looking for Gao Qisheng, who is currently at the peak of his intelligence and has not yet become corrupt and degenerate.

With his shrewdness, he will definitely do his best to help.

Because it may seem like you'll earn less money, but you'll gain invaluable personal relationships that money can't buy.

So……

Should I get involved with the Gao brothers?

As Zhao Ruilong was considering, Du Bozhong blurted out:

"I'll talk to Brother Sheng about it, but can't you guys really expand production capacity and supply the goods sooner?"

Manager Han sighed and shook his head.

"There's no way, there's really no way!"

"It's not that we don't want to make money, but even if we hire as many people as possible and build factories, it won't make much of a difference!"

"Because suppliers of components such as the casing, motherboard, buttons, battery, and electronic components also need time to expand their production capacity!"

While talking.

A knocking sound came from the door.

Another man wearing a shirt, trousers, and carrying a shoulder bag entered through the door.

"Manager Han, I've made up my mind. Shall we sign the contract now?"

"Go to the conference room, I'll be right there."

As soon as the man left, Manager Han shrugged.

"See? It's that crazy, we simply can't keep up!"

"If you don't make a decision soon, I doubt you'll even get the goods by March next year!"

Du Bozhong suddenly stood up.

"Sign it, sign it now!"

……

A few minutes later.
