Fortunately, by undertaking OEM business for Moreno Trading Company, He Yuzhu finally mastered the transistor manufacturing process after many hardships.
In this way, he can go all out, carefully conceive and design radios of his own brand, and then quickly capture a large market share with its unique selling points.
It is worth mentioning that as early as 1958, the first television station in China was successfully built and began operation.
After that, numerous television stations of all sizes sprang up across the country like mushrooms after rain.
With the booming development of the television industry, people's demand for audio-visual entertainment equipment will inevitably increase.
This presents He Yuzhu with both a rare opportunity and an unprecedented challenge.
How to gain a foothold in fierce competition and lead the trend has become a difficult problem that he urgently needs to overcome.
Across the vast land of China, in the bustling cities of Beijing and Shanghai, stand sizable television factories.
These factories are capable of producing not only 8-inch black and white televisions, but also similar products that are slightly larger, such as 9-inch models.
At this moment, China has successfully mastered the relevant production technologies for picture tubes and television sets, and has achieved remarkable success in this field.
Upon hearing this, the highly respected leader nodded slightly in agreement.
“Absolutely no problem. I will provide you with all the detailed information about these technologies without reservation and free of charge.”
Faced with such generous support, He Yuzhu was filled with gratitude and quickly expressed his thanks:
"Thank you, sir!"
The top leader responded with a smile:
"Don't be shy. Just focus on doing your job well and stay down-to-earth. If you encounter any difficulties or have any needs, just let us know and we will do our best to help you."
After a moment's thought, He Yuzhu finally couldn't help but voice a long-held question in his mind:
"Why didn't we send anyone to Hong Kong to conduct business activities before? After all, it's a place of great commercial prosperity."
However, the top leader did not answer his question directly, but instead asked in return:
"Do you really think no one has ever done this before?"
He Yuzhu stated truthfully:
"To be honest, I have inquired around and found out that there is no such arrangement or deployment in Hong Kong."
"Not now. We only purchase items through the Rong and Huo families."
The senior leader said somewhat sadly, "I had sent people to start companies before, but they were all defeated by some people and had to end in failure."
Thinking that the company couldn't have been operating without military suppression in Hong Kong, He Yuzhu suddenly understood.
Foreigners are very hostile to the mainland. If they discover that someone is a representative of the mainland, they will definitely try every means to bring them down.
The most direct and effective way is to send out a few martial artists to defeat them and then take over their company.
The high-ranking leader reminded him, "Although you are highly skilled in martial arts, you must be careful lest you fall into the enemy's trap."
Chapter 499 How come we have so many skyscrapers?
He Yuzhu nodded slightly, indicating that he was already aware of the current situation.
When he first arrived in Hong Kong, he sold Russian goods, not items from mainland China.
Therefore, on the surface, his connection with the mainland is not really close.
Furthermore, the lathes he was selling, while identical to those produced domestically, were comparable to those from Russia.
Therefore, it is difficult for outsiders to directly associate him with the mainland.
Moreover, Hong Kong has long implemented a so-called "resistance policy".
This policy stipulates that anyone from the mainland who successfully sets foot on Hong Kong can naturally obtain local identity documents.
For this reason, others are even less likely to associate him with the mainland government.
Perhaps for this reason, no one has dared to openly target him to this day.
In fact, like Fok Ying-tung and the Rong family, they also have many deep connections with the mainland, yet they still live a carefree life, and their businesses are booming.
This shows that England's real target is actually the agents of the mainland government.
In that case, as long as I keep a low profile and act cautiously, I should be able to avoid causing any major trouble.
Moreover, given his own strength, even if he encounters some tricky situations, he should be able to handle them with ease thanks to his considerable martial prowess.
If anyone dares to lay a hand on him, he will cut them off without hesitation!
"Don't worry, I can handle this matter perfectly well."
Upon hearing this, the high-ranking leader asked:
"Besides these, what other kind of technical support would you like?"
After thinking for a moment, He Yuzhu replied:
"Please also prepare a copy of the production technical data for that watch, and also, while you're at it, entrust me with the sales of the watch movement manufacturing business."
After all, for other types of mechanical products, He Yuzhu only needs to study them a little to fully grasp their essence.
However, when it comes to mechanical watches, specialized technology and specific equipment are required.
He Yuzhu simply couldn't be bothered to spend any more time and energy delving into these complex matters.
Due to the restrictions and constraints imposed by the Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls (COCOM), there were almost no customers from developed countries at the Canton Fair.
Most of those making purchases here are from impoverished countries in the Third World.
Even though He Yuzhu planned to take the products he obtained from the mainland to Hong Kong to carry out sales work, his customer base was mainly concentrated in economically developed regions such as Europe and the United States.
In this way, there is no overlap between the sales targets of the two parties, so He Yuzhu's act of acting as a sales agent will not have any adverse impact on the original customer resources of the Canton Fair.
Seeing this, the top leader readily nodded in agreement:
"Okay, no problem, I can meet your request."
Suddenly, He Yuzhu's mind conjured up images of those dismantling companies that would become famous in later generations. They were like busy bees, busily shuttling between Europe and America, acquiring large quantities of seemingly useless scrap metal and all sorts of obsolete second-hand equipment.
These items may appear to outsiders as nothing more than worthless junk, but to professional dismantling companies, they are a treasure trove containing endless wealth.
Because with careful processing and recycling, the various precious metals contained within can see the light of day again and be reused.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but have an idea and asked:
"I wonder if there is a shortage of metal raw materials in China nowadays?"
After receiving an affirmative answer, he immediately continued:
"How about this? I'll try to purchase a batch of scrapped cars and machinery from Europe and America, transport them to China, and then we can extract and smelt new metal materials from these scrap metals for use."
This would alleviate the domestic shortage of metal raw materials and also achieve resource recycling—wouldn't that be a win-win situation?
Upon hearing this, the other party's eyes lit up, and they responded excitedly:
"This idea is absolutely brilliant! You know, the domestic steel production has never been very high, and the Metallurgical Administration has been complaining about it constantly, saying that there is not enough metal supply!"
So, the two struck while the iron was hot and began to discuss the many specific details of the plan.
After in-depth communication and discussion, the arrangements gradually became clear, and the weight that had been hanging over He Yuzhu's heart finally settled down.
He felt extremely gratified because today, all the matters he had been pondering for a long time had finally been properly resolved.
The following morning, as the sun shone brightly on the earth, the Canton Fair officially opened amidst the long-awaited gazes of the crowd.
After the opening ceremony, He Yuzhu, with a smile on his face, walked into the bustling venue with Huang Zhirou.
Looking around, the venue was bustling with people, and the dazzling array of exhibits was overwhelming.
At this time, domestic export trade was still dominated by traditional agricultural and sideline products, although occasionally a small number of mechanical equipment could be seen mixed in.
As He Yuzhu walked, he suddenly spotted the familiar Jeep that the vehicle factory produced itself. It was parked quietly on the booth, exuding a unique charm.
Not only that, he unexpectedly ran into several old friends here...
After some polite greetings, He Yuzhu embarked on his procurement journey with renewed vigor.
He first turned his attention to the wide variety of high-end goods.
This includes a variety of fragrant and high-quality teas, such as Longjing and Biluochun.
Crispy dried fruits, such as almonds and cashews; pure honey with a golden color and rich texture;
Soft, smooth, and extremely warm animal fur; delicate, smooth, and lustrous silk products;
A wide variety of precious Chinese medicinal herbs with different effects, as well as various seasonings with unique flavors that can enhance the taste of dishes.
You should know that these products are highly sought-after items in the bustling and vibrant Hong Kong!
To this end, He Yuzhu had prepared sufficient funds well in advance.
Prior to this, he had successfully exchanged millions of dollars, but even so, as he continued to select his favorite items, the huge sum of money still disappeared as quickly as water.
Finally, he stopped, satisfied, after spending all the money he had on him.
Looking at the mountain of goods piled up in front of him, He Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh with regret:
"Sigh, it's a pity I didn't bring enough money!"
Hearing this, Huang Zhirou, who was standing to the side, could no longer contain her emotions. She rolled her eyes at He Yuzhu and muttered under her breath:
