Chapter 23
But Zhang Xiaocheng just felt very aggrieved. "The goods for these slips still have to be prioritized. If we keep giving them, it will affect the normal orders for satellite dishes!"
Li Dongling was already used to this. Not to mention that the Component Factory was a state-owned enterprise, even in private companies, this kind of thing was indispensable. When a product was in a state of scarcity, all kinds of ghosts and monsters would jump out.
"Increase production capacity. Someone coming to hit slips means that satellite dishes are still rare goods now. When no one comes to hit slips to get goods, that's when it's really troublesome!"
Li Dongling said to Zhang Xiaocheng. At most, in another month or two, it was estimated that counterfeit and imitation satellite dishes would appear in the market in large numbers. By then, the profit of satellite dishes would definitely plummet. Without huge profits, those people would naturally not engage in any slips.
Zhang Xiaocheng sighed, but he also knew that what Li Dongling said was the truth. He had been in the army for many years, and he couldn't rub sand in his eyes, but after being demobilized, he also knew that in society, these human relationships were indispensable.
"Brother Zhang, do you have any familiar driver candidates? Recommend one to me!"
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaocheng immediately reacted. "Are you going to buy a car?"
Looking at the three shareholders of the satellite dish project now, the Component Factory, Pingyang TV station, and Dongling High-Tech Company, but the first two were state-owned enterprises and public institutions. When getting dividends from satellite dishes, Zhang Xiaocheng and the leaders of the TV station could borrow the name of issuing bonuses to give themselves more, or buy a car in the name of purchasing for the unit, and then use it for themselves, but they couldn't say that they could just put the dividends into their own pockets!
As for Li Dongling, he didn't need to worry about so many restrictions. As long as the dividends reached the account of Dongling High-Tech and taxes were paid, Li Dongling could use them.
"No problem, I'll pick a suitable person for you!"
Zhang Xiaocheng thought for a while and said. Li Dongling opened his mouth to ask him for a driver candidate, certainly not just for driving. In this era, although cars still belonged to valuables, there were still quite a few people who could drive.
And more drivers actually also doubled as bodyguards. Now the public security wasn't very good. Like the Boss Yu who was running a training and education company, he had been robbed twice, and it was at his own door. If he didn't find a bodyguard, Li Dongling was also somewhat uneasy.
Zhang Xiaocheng was demobilized from the army and certainly had connections. Recommending a suitable bodyguard was no better.
Seeing Li Dongling writing and drawing in the notebook again, Zhang Xiaocheng thought Li Dongling was designing new satellite dishes again and didn't dare to disturb him, walking to the outside on tiptoe.
Satellite dishes also needed to be upgraded. Besides increasing the signal, the main upgrade was to replace materials and reduce costs!
Now the cost of Guanxing satellite dishes, with large-scale production, whether it was the cost of purchasing raw materials or production costs, was constantly decreasing. The original three hundred yuan satellite dish had a cost of about one hundred and eighty yuan, and the profit was only one hundred and twenty yuan. Now the profit had gradually increased to more than one hundred and forty yuan.
When the price war started in the future, the selling price of a satellite dish, Li Dongling expected, could be hit to around two hundred yuan. This was the limit of Guanxing satellite dishes. If it was lower, it was estimated that it would start to lose money.
Li Dongling was writing and drawing on the paper, but it wasn't designing any new satellite dishes, but considering the Dongling High-Tech Company.
Satellite dishes could be considered the first project of the Dongling High-Tech Company. In the short term, satellite dishes could provide Dongling High-Tech with not low cash flow, but Dongling High-Tech couldn't stick to one satellite dish project.
The pen tip stopped on the paper. Li Dongling was thinking about what Dongling High-Tech would do in the future, or it was also what Li Dongling would do.
Now Dongling High-Tech was just a shell company. Rushing into those industries that required technical requirements or large investments, it was estimated that it would be blown to pieces in the end.
If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. Li Dongling wouldn't rush to do those gold-swallowing beast-like projects. That was something Li Dongling couldn't afford now. Just like the giant building being built by the idol in the hearts of countless people now, it looked infinitely glorious, but once a change occurred, if that building couldn't be built, then even if it was a god in the hearts of countless people, he would be pulled off the altar overnight. The richest man and the poorest man were often just a thought away!
Standing up, pacing back and forth several times, Li Dongling remembered the call he made when sending Gao Peng home today, and suddenly had some thoughts in his heart, having some ideas for the next step of Dongling High-Tech.
However, it was still that sentence. Now Dongling High-Tech was just a shell company. Wanting to launch a cross-era product directly to compete with those old giants was no different from a dream, but a journey of a thousand miles began with a single step!
Early in the morning, Gao Peng, who felt his head was a bit painful, opened his eyes and saw that he was sleeping on his own bed. For what happened after he was drunk, Gao Peng didn't remember, but before he was drunk, the things Li Dongling handed over to him, he remembered very clearly.
Jumping off the bed, rushing into the bathroom to wash, Gao Peng went out to get busy with the things Li Dongling handed over.
Sitting straight on the wooden sofa, looking at the newspaper, Gao Bo Shan, seeing Gao Peng, who was going out again like a fire burning his ass, couldn't help but hum. "Came back drunk, and left as soon as you woke up. What do you treat home as?!"
"I really have serious business to handle!" Gao Peng changed his clothes full of alcohol, and while changing, said to his father Gao Bo Shan.
Hearing this, Gao Bo Shan's gentle and elegant temperament couldn't be pretended anymore, and he directly scolded, "You have a fart of serious business. You are cheating and swindling under my banner all day long. Do you know that I, the deputy director of the municipal office, have almost become a laughingstock of municipal departments? Every day, someone uses my name to find people from other departments and units to mess with some broken things!"
"This time, I'm really doing serious business. You'll know by then. I, Gao Laosan, am the man in this family who really does big things. In the future, the Gao family will have to rely on me!"
Hearing this, Gao Bo Shan's anger became even greater, and he directly threw the newspaper in his hand. "Fart big things, stop causing trouble for me, don't let me lick an old face to go to the police station of which street to fish people out! My old face has already been ruined by you!
If you had half as sensible as the two of them, I would die without regrets, I tell you!"
Gao Peng also had two older brothers. He was the third in the family. One entered the municipal department like Gao Bo Shan, acting very steadily, and had signs of inheriting Gao Bo Shan's mantle, which was most valued by Gao Bo Shan.
The second Gao family was a lawyer. Now in the Pingyang lawyer circle, he had also made some fame. The ideal of the second Gao family was to establish his own law firm.
The first and second Gao families both made Gao Bo Shan worry-free, leaving only a Gao Laosan, which made Gao Bo Shan have a headache.
"That can't be, you old man must take good care of your health. When I buy Audi 100 and Duke King in the future, I still have to take you for a test drive!"
Saying that, Gao Peng changed his shoes and ran away, leaving Gao Bo Shan staring and helpless.
"Building a new house?"
"Building what new house? These three tile-roofed houses were built by me single-handedly. After raising the three of you, is it not enough for you to live in now?!"
Li Dongling returned home this time and purchased quite a few home appliances, color TVs, washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners, motorcycles, etc., and moved them back. If it weren't for the fact that pulling a network cable now was too inconvenient, Li Dongling would have bought a computer for his younger sister Li Dongyue to study.
The computers in this era really had a few points for users, meaning opening a window to the world. How many people saw the appearance of thousands of miles away through a computer? Of course, whether the things on the computer were true or false needed to be identified and thought about by oneself. Still that sentence, since there was a computer, who was the one knocking on the keyboard, no one knew, but the computer now really made people broaden their horizons.
Wang Xiulan and Li Dongyue were both touching and looking at the things Li Dongling brought back. These things she heard that some families in the city had already used them. This was the first time the Li family had used them.
However, hearing Li Dongling mention that he wanted to build a new house for the Li family, Li Lao Tou, who was smoking dry tobacco, couldn't help but slap the table, blowing his beard and staring at Li Dongling.
These few tile-roofed houses were built by Li Zhenlin himself. In that year, those who could push down mud walls and build tile-roofed houses were regarded as capable people in the village. This was also Li Zhenlin's pride. Now that he wanted to demolish them and rebuild a new house, he was certainly dissatisfied.
Li Dongling, who was rolling dry tobacco for the old man, raised his head and glanced at Li Zhenlin, who was blowing his beard and staring, just laughed. He brought back quite a few good cigarettes of various brands for Li Zhenlin, but they were all put in the cabinet by Li Zhenlin. When old buddies came over, he would scatter those cigarettes to old buddies and then get a few compliments, and the Li Lao Tou could be proud for a long time. However, usually, Li Zhenlin still smoked dry tobacco, claiming that the famous cigarettes Li Dongling brought back were not strong enough.
"This house is definitely a good house. That year, in the entire commune, who didn't know the big tile-roofed houses you built, Dad? But..."
Li Dongling glanced at Li Dongshan, who was killing fish and processing fish scales. "Isn't my brother about to marry a new daughter-in-law? Where will your daughter-in-law live by then?!"
