#529 - Year-end summary
Karl also understood what Lu Haifeng said, that deeper cooperation between the two parties would bring better products to consumers!
However, the two of them represented their respective companies after all!
The purpose of their companies' existence was to earn more money!
If the two companies really cooperated, there would inevitably be many entanglements in terms of interests!
How to cooperate, and how to distribute the benefits, it can be said that these things need to be considered in the long term!
After all, the two companies are not like Huaxing Technology and Huaxing Semiconductor, who are on the same side!
Karl smiled and took Lu Haifeng and his team to visit Zeiss's product museum!
Finally, at noon, after a simple authentic Western meal for Lu Haifeng and his team, the formal negotiations between the two companies began!
Now, both companies can be said to have their own say!
Of course, they also want to get more benefits from each other!
Finally, after nearly a week of negotiations, the two companies truly reached this cooperation!
It can be said that in this cooperation, both companies have made certain concessions!
After all, both companies now have a certain status in the international arena!
They believe that only by cooperating with each other can they truly achieve a win-win situation!
After a week of negotiations, the two parties finally reached a cooperation agreement!
Huaxing Technology invested 10 billion to establish a company with Zeiss, specializing in the design and manufacture of mobile phone lenses!
In this new company, Zeiss will send its own professional team to jointly design and manufacture new lenses with the Huaxing Technology team!
In this new company, Zeiss only contributes technology and technical personnel, but obtains 35% of the company's shares!
It can be said that in this cooperation, one company contributes money, and the other contributes technology!
Of course, the main say in this company still belongs to Huaxing Technology!
However, Zeiss has other requirements: before establishing a new lens design and manufacturing company!
Zeiss must be allowed to invest in Huaxing Technology's European branch as a shareholder!
Hearing their request, Lu Haifeng did not refuse Zeiss's investment!
After all, the economy is now globalized, and if Huaxing Technology's mobile phone brand wants to develop and grow in Europe!
Then it must have a certain connection with European local capital!
This year, Huaxing Technology's Hongmeng X series fourth-generation mobile phone was able to shine in the European market and receive certain attention!
Various European telecommunications companies have contributed a lot to this!
So that the Hongmeng X series fourth-generation mobile phone can enter the public's view in the first year it landed in Europe!
Zeiss in Europe can be said to have been established for more than a hundred years!
The scope of its investment has basically surpassed its original main business!
The influence of Zeiss in Europe should not be underestimated!
After discussion, Lu Haifeng finally allowed Zeiss to invest 2 billion in Huaxing Technology's European branch!
And obtained 4% of the shares of Huaxing Technology's European branch, becoming one of the European shareholders with the most shares in this company!
After Lu Haifeng reached a cooperation agreement with Zeiss, he also made certain preparations for Huaxing Technology's mobile phones next year!
Next year, several mobile phones launched by Huaxing Technology will be equipped with Zeiss lenses!
These mobile phones, coupled with Huaxing Technology's original mobile phone photography capabilities!
It can be said that next year, the mobile phone photography capabilities of Huaxing Technology will be greatly improved and will shock the world!
After the matter in Europe was settled, Lu Haifeng led the team back to China!
After all, the end of the year is approaching, and everything needs to be properly accounted for!
It can be said that this year is a very big year of harvest. The sales of Huaxing Technology's mobile phones are very good, with a very large increase compared to last year!
Audi Motors has also gained a firm foothold in the domestic market and will officially enter the international market next year!
......
At the end of December, Lu Haifeng held this year's annual summary meeting of the company at Huaxing Technology!
In this year, Huaxing Technology can be said to have developed very rapidly!
Even to say that it has reached the level of monopolizing the market!
At this year's annual meeting, the first summary report was from Wang Min, who is responsible for market promotion and marketing and offline market layout!
Compared to last year, our Huaxing Technology had 1,000 directly-operated flagship stores offline!
This year, our Huaxing Technology's offline direct-sale stores have successfully exceeded 1,500!
Basically, in every first, second, and third-tier city in the country, there are direct-sale stores of our Huaxing Technology!
Wang Min smiled and reported the situation of this year's offline market to the senior management of Huaxing Technology Group!
The offline market can be said to be a very important sales channel for Huaxing Technology!
Sometimes, the profits of offline market channels are much higher than those of online market channels!
This also made Lu Haifeng start the layout of the offline market at the beginning of the establishment of Huaxing Technology!
After so many years of layout in the offline market, Huaxing Technology's direct-sale stores have also successfully exceeded 1,500!
The number of more than 1,500 Huaxing Technology direct-sale stores is not too small!
Now, basically every prefecture-level city will have a direct-sale store, and even some counties will have Huaxing Technology's direct-sale stores!
According to the current market development of our Huaxing Technology offline, I estimate that we will have breakthrough growth next year!
Next year, our offline direct-sale stores will begin to take root in the counties!
We strive to have a Huaxing Technology direct-sale store in every county next year!
Wang Min is very satisfied with his work this year!
However, this year is coming to an end, and what Huaxing Technology needs now is the outlook for next year!
Huaxing Technology's expansion in the offline market in the past few years can be said to be very fast!
In the past few years, Huaxing Technology has spent a lot of energy and funds in the offline market!
In order to enable the offline market to expand rapidly, Huaxing Technology has invested nearly 5 billion yuan every year in the past few years!
As the offline market territory continues to expand, the funds required by Huaxing Technology in this regard are also increasing day by day!
Now, Huaxing Technology's offline direct-sale stores are exclusively managed by Huaxing Technology!
The annual storefront fees and utility labor costs are all included in the calculation. With the expansion of the stores, the final maintenance costs will also increase year by year!
Wang Min has done a data. If the direct-sale stores under his company break through 2,000 next year!
The cost of maintaining and staffing alone will reach more than 1 billion!
For Huaxing Technology, 1 billion is not too much, but it is not too little!
But Wang Min cannot ignore these figures!
According to the current plan of Huaxing Technology, next year it will change the way of expanding the offline market!
Next year, Huaxing Technology will adopt the method of cooperating with offline distributors, giving distributors a certain profit!
Let many, many Huaxing Technology specialty stores appear in the offline market!
As for the direct-sale stores in the offline market, Huaxing Technology will not give up!
It's just that we have to slow down for the time being and change the original expansion plan to expanding 500 new Huaxing Technology direct-sale stores next year!
