Chapter 301: Jiang Xia's Brilliance
Chapter 301: Jiang Xia's Brilliance
Jiang Xia looked at him, "What do you mean by 'three benefits in one move'?"
Zhou Chenglei explained, "I'll take a vacuum sealing machine with Jiang Dong to the plastic factory, and then we'll head to the food factory to pick up some food products..."
Jiang Xia instantly understood, "I get it. We'll follow your plan. You and Jiang Dong will take a vacuum sealing machine to the plastic factory."
But why not take the plastic bags from the plastic factory and the food from the food factory to Jiang Dong's side? Wouldn't that be more convenient?
The clients going to the machinery exhibition hall are all targeted customers, meaning they are there to order machinery equipment.
However, the customers at the plastic factory might be in the food business or other industries, as many sectors require plastic bags.
If they encounter customers in the food business, wouldn't it be convenient to promote the food products as well?
And for those in the food business who need plastic bags, they would also need a vacuum sealing machine, which is where the 'three benefits in one move' comes into play. A vacuum sealing machine costing around one thousand dollars can help their food factory's products last longer and reach further markets. No businessperson would hesitate to make such an investment.
Jiang Xia had also thought of promoting the plastic packaging bags and vacuum sealing machines when buying food, but she hadn't considered moving the items to the plastic factory. In fact, setting up at the food factory's booth would be better!
However, Jiang Xia also noticed someone's petty mindset.
Zhou Chenglei's eyebrows lifted slightly, "Hmm."
Jiang Xia said, "We'll also take one to the food factory. I'll go to the food factory..."
Zhou Chenglei's eyebrows lowered, "Okay..."
Jiang Xia found it amusing and said, "Pig's foot vinegar is made with sweet vinegar, not sour!"
All vinegar in the world is sour, and saying it's not is a lie!
Jiang Xia glared at him, "I'll go find Aunt Fang and discuss with Factory Head Feng about how we can cooperate for mutual benefit."
A smile appeared in Zhou Chenglei's eyes, "Great! Let's also invite the factory head of Jing City Machinery Factory."
After the couple agreed, they divided the tasks between them.
Jiang Xia returned to the food factory, and Gu Jingxuan didn't see Zhou Chenglei around. He smiled slightly, "Xia Xia, are you full?"
Jiang Xia politely smiled and nodded, "Yes, I'm full."
Then she discussed with Fang Aiyuan, "Aunt Fang, I have something to discuss with you..."
With Jiang Xia's mediation and suggestions, the three factory heads quickly reached a consensus and agreed to help promote each other's products, benefiting both parties.
Factory Head Feng was generous and even decided to buy a vacuum sealing machine and offer a thousand one-pound transparent edible packaging bags.
Jiang Xia laughed, "Factory Head Feng, your vision is far-sighted."
Jiang Xia always believed that in business, one must give to receive. What would someone who buys a vacuum sealing machine do with it? Of course, it's for vacuum packaging their products.
The raw material for vacuum packaging is the packaging bags; they are inseparable.
Factory Head Feng's gift wasn't just plastic bags; it was an invitation to future targeted customers!
Jiang Xia offered him advice, "Factory Head Feng, what do you think of this idea? If a customer orders plastic bags worth ten thousand dollars, we can offer a vacuum sealing machine. As for the specifics of how much to order and how to make it cost-effective, you can think about it. I'm just giving an example."
Factory Head Feng slapped his thigh, "It's Xia Xia who has the ideas! Let's do it this way! For orders worth ten thousand dollars, we'll offer a machine!"
The packaging machine and bags are a perfect match! Offering a machine for orders over ten thousand dollars is definitely a profitable deal. In the future, when customers return to order more bags, there will be an increasing number of customers.
Factory Head Feng thought Jiang Xia was truly brilliant!
At her age, she had the audacity to bring together the factory heads of three factories for a meeting and even convinced them to listen to her.
This young lady had thought of the pros and cons of the collaboration and came up with solutions.
Initially, they planned to offer help for free, but she vetoed the idea, suggesting it was best to give the other party a small commission. This way, they could avoid potential conflicts and establish a long-term partnership, not just during the Canton Fair.
He couldn't help but think that when he was Jiang Xia's age, he knew nothing! And here she was, already leading a collaboration.
Upon hearing this, Fang Ai yuan said, "In that case, I'll send a box of instant noodles too."
Since the instant noodles weren't selling anyway, she might as well send some out using the vacuum sealer, considering it a sale.
After everything was negotiated, Fang Ai yuan went back and instructed her people to send some vacuum-suitable food items to the plastic factory.
Gu Jingxuan wanted to help, but she stopped him!
Jiang Xia went straight to the plastic factory's booth. Factory Director Feng smiled and asked, "Xiao Xia, how old are you this year?"
"Twenty-one," she replied.
Factory Director Feng exclaimed, "The youth are truly formidable!"
His youngest son was two years older than Jiang Xia.
Yet, his son only called home every month to ask for more money.
Look at Xia Xia, she had already started making money, and she was earning more than him, the factory director.
It's true that comparing oneself to others is never a good idea!
"Xiao Xia, why did you get married so early? I have a son who is exceptionally handsome. If you weren't married..."
If she married his son, what a wonderful daughter-in-law she'd make!
Just then, Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Dong arrived, carrying a vacuum sealer. "..."
He was starting to think it wasn't such a good idea for Jiang Xia to stay there!
Factory Director Feng noticed Zhou Chenglei's cold stare and, patting his clever head, he laughed, "I just want Xiao Xia to be my goddaughter! Comrade Zhou, don't read too much into it!"
Zhou Chenglei couldn't be bothered to respond. With that shiny head of his, he could well imagine what his son looked like.
He was quite relieved!
After everything was arranged, everyone went their separate ways.
Zhou Chenglei went back to selling ships, Jiang Dong returned to selling vacuum sealers, and Jiang Xia stayed at the plastic factory, selling vacuum sealers, packaging bags, and also food items like sausages, ham, and instant noodles.
"Dear friends, come one, come all, don't miss out! Come and see our amazing machine, developed by Jing University..."
Perhaps it was the dramatic effect of Jiang Xia's "come one, come all, don't miss out" that caught the attention of passing foreign merchants, who couldn't help but stop and come over.
Jiang Xia demonstrated the machine, placing slices of luncheon meat into the packaging bags and then using the vacuum sealer to vacuum-seal and seal the bags.
Those in the food industry knew that cooked food needed to be vacuum-sealed and sterilized at high temperatures before being sold. These products required manual packaging, and the vacuum chamber sealing process was intermittent, making it easy for the products to get contaminated and spoil.
But this machine didn't need a vacuum chamber; it could directly vacuum-seal, package, and seal, all at a fast pace, completing the process in one go!
Moreover, the machine wasn't too big, making it easy to move around. If the factory had a few of these, they could bag products on one side and seal them on the other, all at once.
This was so much cleaner, more convenient, and quicker!
Those who understood immediately asked, "How much does this machine cost?"
Jiang Xia promptly explained the discount, "This vacuum sealer is newly developed. At the Canton Fair, we're offering a discount. The original price is 1,300, but during the fair, it's only 1,100, and we're giving away..."
