v2 Chapter 1628： Dinner exchange meeting 2

The performance of this kid made Ingvar Kamprad very satisfied. The more famous people, the man with real ability, the more unpretentious. This applies in any country. In fact, the old man himself is also a low-key person, otherwise he would not have moved directly to the Swiss countryside. And officially retired at the age of 60; you must know that he is the founder of the company, and it is still in his prime.

He doesn't need to work in detail, and the old man's management ability is definitely not bad. But even so, he still chooses to retire, proving that people are not authoritarian. For this point, Bao Zixuan really admires it; when it comes to that time, it is still unknown whether he can do it.

Most of the founding kings or successful entrepreneurs in history. In old age, I don't want to abdicate; even when I am old and confused and my thinking is a little abnormal, this is still the case. Always believe that the world and the foundation are made by oneself, and they should be controlled by oneself.

First of all, the lack of keeping up with the times is one aspect, and secondly, the energy is limited; the work efficiency will naturally be greatly reduced. In short, it is not conducive to the development of the enterprise, and there is a feeling of occupying the pit and not shitting.

Ingvar Caprad can do it, but it's not easy.

So the two naturally walked to a corner, and for those who wanted to chat with Bao Zixuan, they saw the two chatting in the corner. It's natural to retreat back, the communication between the super tycoons; they can't get in!

Knowing how much Bao Zixuan's character is, Kamprad said without nonsense, "I want to do a win-win business with Mr. Bao. I wonder if your Excellency is interested."

Hearing about doing business, of course he is interested in the richest man.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "We are all businessmen. Of course, we are very interested in a win-win business. I don't know what kind of business you want to do. I'm all ears."

Kamprad said very formally: "Currently, Heiyun Town in Heilongjiang is under construction day and night, and at the same time, Fucaira is also being vigorously developed."

"If Mr. Bao doesn't dislike it, IKEA wants to invest in Fucaira to build a factory. At the same time, it is preparing to upgrade some existing machinery and equipment. I think this aspect will entrust the assistance of Heiyun Group. With Heiyun's technology, develop intelligent products There should be no problem at all with the woodworking machinery.”

"If the usage requirements can be met, all mechanical equipment in the future will be gradually replaced with Black Cloud products."

"At the same time, the electronic equipment in the IKEA home office will use the Black Cloud brand."

Hearing that the old boy gave himself such a large list, then you don't have to think about it. This is to get furniture orders for the town of Heiyun, as well as furniture orders for the entire country of Fucaira.

But the other party is indeed sincere, at least much smarter than other companies. It is not to sell the product as soon as it comes up, but to use the exchange method. Heiyun Group can expand its business, and Fucaira has also added a Fortune 500 company to attract investment.

Furniture and other daily necessities cannot all be purchased from abroad. Inconvenience is one aspect, and the most important cost will be very high. Now that IKEA is willing to invest in building factories, many problems can be solved.

In fact, Bao Zixuan also thought about making furniture by himself, but it was not very cost-effective after comprehensive calculation. With Heiyun Town and Fucaira Todi, there is definitely no problem with making money; but what about the management after that!

There are so many furniture companies in the world, why is only IKEA able to become the world's top 500? Is there no smart people in the furniture industry? There must be a reason here.

Now for business management, it is already a little powerless. That is to say, the lifeline of the times can be stuck, otherwise problems will inevitably occur. If it is expanding into traditional businesses, it will invisibly increase the cost of the enterprise. Another key point is that Heiyun is a technology company. If it does everything, it will surely offend more countries and companies.

That's not to grow and develop, but to play with fire. Sooner or later, one day, he will burn himself to death!

Bao Zixuan thought for a while and said, "I think this business is very good, at least I have no objection. The infrastructure of Heiyun Town will be completed early next year; I am thinking of finding some furniture and other supporting manufacturers to cooperate."

"IKEA is the world's No. 1 brand in the field of home furnishing, and Mr. Kamprad has shown such sincerity, there is no reason not to cooperate. You can send a team to visit Fucaira and Xiangjiang. I only have one request; it doesn't matter if the price is expensive. , but the quality must be guaranteed.”

"As for office chairs, they must be ergonomic, and engineers must sit on them comfortably. I hope IKEA designers can solve all these problems."

"As for the woodworking machinery needed by IKEA, Heiyun Group will also dispatch engineers; go deep into the factory and communicate with workers. We must come up with the best solution to ensure customer satisfaction."

After speaking, the two people's hands naturally clasped together, and the deal was basically reached.

From its early days, IKEA has decided to stand with the "majority" of homeware consumers. This means that IKEA meets the needs of people with many different needs, tastes, dreams, pursuits and financial resources, who at the same time want to improve the condition of their homes and create a better everyday life. In response to this market positioning, IKEA's products are positioned as "low-price, beautiful and durable" household items.

In developed countries such as Europe and the United States, IKEA positions itself as a provider of household goods for the public. Because of its high quality and low price, new styles and good service, it is welcomed by the majority of low- and middle-income families. Therefore, in terms of cost control and quotation, IKEA has done a remarkable job. And with such a large order, I believe they will control the profit very reasonably, otherwise it will be difficult to cooperate in the future.

Seeing the two shaking hands, anyone who followed them knew; it was some kind of partnership agreement. They are both super tycoons, and the two have chatted for so long, which shows that business rules are definitely not small.

Even King Gustaf of Sweden is interested. As one of the largest companies in Sweden, IKEA has even become the face of the country. Although Lampard moved to Switzerland, although it is very uncomfortable, it is also a freedom of others, and it is not too much. Force something.

As long as the main body of IKEA is still in Sweden, the place of registration has not changed, and it is still paying taxes to the government; a retiree personally wants to live in the past, just let him go!

As for inviting him to the Nobel Prize dinner, it was more of a courtesy. I didn't expect the other party to actually come. Now it seems that the old boy has a very strong purpose, obviously looking for Bao Zixuan to talk about business.

Now that the two have finished talking, asking them to share it can be considered to increase the influence of the Nobel Prize dinner in disguise.

Although both of them are super rich, he is a king after all, so where is his identity? So the housekeeper went over in person and invited them to come over.

It was learned that the king personally invited, and the cooperation between the two parties has been completed; the remaining details will be connected with the subordinates, and the boss does not need to be involved in person.

Follow the royal housekeeper to Gustav and the queen to see what instructions the other has.

Gustav said with a smile: "Looking at the status of the two, it seems that they have reached some kind of cooperation. Of course, I have no other intentions. If it is a commercial secret, forget it. Just thinking that Heiyun and IKEA are world-renowned companies, If the two sides cooperate; what kind of chemical reaction will occur, I am very curious."

The two exchanged glances, and after confirming that the other party agreed; and Kamprad also made a gesture of invitation, UU Reading Bao richest man immediately understood what it meant. This is for him to announce, and the old man himself is low-key; it is estimated that after he finishes speaking, he will not regret it!

I didn't want to go back on it, and IKEA is indeed a very good partner. The mechanical field can expand the product line, which is better than entering unfamiliar territory. If the furniture machinery is done well, there will be many furniture factories in the world in the future; but they will all be ordered from the Black Cloud Group.

Huaxia may not be applied so quickly, but European and American countries; as long as labor can be saved, I believe that companies will buy expensive machinery and equipment. After all, the labor cost here is really overwhelming for the factory owner. That is to say, the profit is OK, otherwise it will never last.

And the mechanical equipment has been successfully developed, and the Italians will definitely buy some of them. Most of the high-end brand furniture in the world are made in Italy, and of course they can also use mechanical equipment. However, the other party pays attention to craftsmanship for beauty; but as long as there is a small part, it is enough.

If you want to make furniture, you don't have to produce it yourself. If it can produce furniture machinery, isn't it also a disguised intervention!
