Huang Lin looked at Zhang Ran, weighing his words in his heart before speaking: "I know the situation with Huali, but Huali still has quite a bit of potential. Their market share has indeed fallen, but as long as it is managed well and they increase investment in product research and development,

I believe it will definitely turn losses into profits. Moreover, it is also a brand for our Huamei Group to build smart home appliances.

Once this brand takes off, then for us, it will be a very important matter."

He now needed to try hard to persuade Zhang Ran; the brand of Huali Electric actually didn't need much explanation, because it was originally a State-owned Enterprise.

In 2003, it began a shareholding reform and was subsequently acquired by Huamei.

The brand has always been there, but over these many years, the products have not kept up with the times. Although it still has some market share, overall it is not as good as before.

And Huali Electric has thirteen shareholders, the largest of which is, of course, Huamei Group, holding sixty percent of the shares.

The remaining forty percent are in the hands of Huang Lin and Cheng Mei's relatives.

This is also the reason why Huang Lin wants to maintain Huali Electric; if there were no Huamei, then Huali's bankruptcy would be inevitable.

And it would even owe a huge debt; when that time comes, the ones who will be unlucky are all those relatives of his.

Of course, to say that there are no shares of their own among them would also be impossible.

After Huang Lin finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Ran with a nervous heart; he was discovering a truth more and more now.

That is, accompanying a monarch is like accompanying a tiger!

One really could fall into a trap if not careful; no one knows what Zhang Ran is thinking.

It was fine just before, but now in the blink of an eye, he has seized upon Huali Electric.

Zhang Ran seemed as if he didn't know the situation, or as if he had been persuaded by him: "I know your thoughts; smart home appliances are indeed the future direction of development.

So you mean you acquired shares in Rose Mobile four years ago with this consideration in mind?"

Rose Mobile is considered an emerging mobile phone manufacturer that has risen in recent years; it doesn't have many patented technologies and basically relies on assembly.

However, the price-performance ratio is quite good, and coupled with Huamei's investment, it has strengthened their sales channels, allowing them to develop very well for a time.

Huang Lin immediately nodded and said: "That's right, it is precisely because of this that I acquired shares in Rose Mobile. Although it is not a controlling stake, it also accounts for twenty-five percent of the shares.

If you really count it, it is also the largest shareholder."

That is how it is said, but the shares of the founding team added together exceed theirs, and coupled with some agreements, the company is still firmly controlled in the hands of the founding team.

Zhang Ran had no interest in these rights, only saying: "Then how much time do you need to be able to perfect these plans?

You can't just let Huali stay half-dead like this, right? If so, I might as well package it up and dispose of it. For so many years, the existence of Huali Electric has always been a burden for Huamei."

Huang Lin understood Zhang Ran's intentions. Zhang Ran really didn't come this time to do anything to him, but to force him to take a stand, or rather, to make him handle some matters well.

Can Zhang Ran handle Huali's affairs?

Of course he can; he only needs to issue one order. After all, most of the shares of Huamei Group are now in his hands; Zhang Ran has absolute power.

But if he did that, it would make some other subsidiaries feel uneasy.

After all, they are not familiar with Zhang Ran, and they even know of Zhang Ran's ruthlessness through some channels!

This would make the subsequent merger plans difficult.

Therefore, these matters still need to be done by Huang Lin, not by Zhang Ran. To put it bluntly, it is still for the sake of the overall situation.

What other way could Huang Lin have?

Zhang Ran had already spoken to this extent; if he were to be tactless, he would truly be courting death.

"One year, within one year, I will definitely make Huali Electric complete the smart home plan and simultaneously increase their market share," Huang Lin said seriously.

In the past, Huali Electric had the help of Huamei Group's sales channels, plus some funds invested for research and development; life was quite good.

Huamei allocated at least over ten million every year; as for how much of this money was actually used for research and development, only they themselves really know.

Zhang Ran is not going to pursue this now; it's meaningless.

Since Huang Lin has agreed, then some things can be passed on to him; this can also be considered a reward for Huang Lin.

After all, this time Huang Lin will definitely offend a group of people, and these people can only vent their anger on Huang Lin, even if they know the real mastermind behind it is Zhang Ran.

"Fine, since you've said so, then I won't worry about these things. By the way, I have some mobile phone patents here; I can give them to Rose later to reduce their production costs.

Also, I have some mobile phone component manufacturers under my name; these can also be merged with Rose later, and their production costs will be further reduced.

However, the shares will need to be yielded a bit more; at the very least, it needs to reach forty percent," Zhang Ran said.

Since there is to be integration, then a comprehensive integration is needed, bringing together industries that were not originally one company to create greater cooperation.

And the mobile phone component factory under Zhang Ran's name was actually under Yaotian Pharmaceutical.

A company doing medicine actually stuck its hand into this; who can you reason with? This also seems to be a common problem for many large companies in the country.

After they reach a certain level, they will have a period of confusion, not knowing what to do, and start so-called major layouts, which is actually just seeing which industries are good and acquiring them.

In the end, it becomes a mess. Yaotian Pharmaceutical is the same, except they have a constant cash cow, so they don't feel much burden at all.

Not only Yaotian Pharmaceutical, but similar things have also happened under other industries; it exists in Kangshilan as well.

Zhang Ran not only wants to integrate large groups, but also wants to integrate these scattered companies together; otherwise, it is also a trouble for the holding company.

Hearing Zhang Ran say this, Huang Lin immediately indicated, "I will go talk to them in a few days."

"Don't be in a hurry. You first send someone to negotiate with them and see what their thoughts are. Now your main energy still needs to be placed on the group integration matter; this is the top priority," Zhang Ran said.

Huang Lin nodded to show he understood, also knowing that this was some sweetness given by Zhang Ran. After all, this was merging the industries of other group companies directly into their Huamei Group Company, which laterally strengthened their company's power.

Cheng Mei had been on the side without speaking, just listening quietly, very silent.
