Chapter 589
A few days later.
Huang Hua International Airport in Xiangzhong City.
Li Linfei took Li Yi and Li Er to prepare to fly to the United States on a private plane.
Among the several women, only Wu Yuting had no classes, so she came to the airport to see Li Linfei off.
"Is it true that we are going today?" Wu Yuting asked.
"Well, this year the company's business has expanded to the United States, so I have to go there." Li Linfei said.
"How long will it take to go?" Wu Yuting asked.
"As little as a month, if more, two months." Li Linfei gave the approximate figure.
"Ah? At least a month, and possibly two months." Wu Yuting frowned and said.
"It's alright, Yuting, wait for me to come back." Li Linfei said.
"Mm."
After saying goodbye to Wu Yuting, he got on the private plane with Li Yi and looked out of the window at the beautiful woman, and Li Linfei waved at her.
Half an hour later, the plane took off.
The flight was going to take a long time, so Li Linfei just closed his eyes on the plane and rested his mind.
After travelling for nearly ten hours from 10am to 8pm, Li Linfei and Li Yi arrived in Detroit.
Detroit is the largest city in the U.S. state of Michigan, a major port city, traditional automobile centre of the world and music capital located in the northeastern part of the United States, north of Windsor, Canada, along the Detroit River, and the 15th most populous county in the United States.
Detroit is a world-famous motor city, and the most famous attraction is still the General Motors headquarters.
The GM headquarters is located in the Detroit Renaissance Centre, which is the most picturesque part of the city.
The headquarters consists of five buildings and the fact that these beautiful complexes stand on the banks of the Erie River, across the river from the Canadian city of Windsor to the north, makes the GM headquarters a landmark on the map of Detroit.
Upon arriving at his destination, Li Linfei hired a driver and soon arrived at the headquarters of the Future Technology Group in the United States, located two blocks from the General Motors headquarters.
The location of the headquarters of General Motors is naturally not comparable to that of other people in a densely populated and prosperous area, while the Future Technology Group is a latecomer, unfamiliar with the place, so it can only purchase a small five-storey building a few streets away, as the temporary headquarters of the Future Technology Group.
When he got out of the car, Li Linfei saw the so-called headquarters of Future Technology in the United States, and looked south at the prosperous high-rise area in the distance under the night, he could not help but twitch his lips a little.
Liu Lin, the head of the US headquarters, had been waiting at the entrance of the headquarters for a long time, and when he saw Li Linfei get out of the car, he hurriedly led his people to welcome him.
"Mr. Li, you've finally arrived." Liu Lin said with a smile.
"Liu Lin, what's wrong with you, I remember I gave you ten billion when I asked you to come here, along with Freed's help, and you just got me a place like this for the headquarters?" Li Linfei questioned.
Even though Li Linfei's heart had been prepared for this, the gap was too big, right?
At any rate, there must be a 20 to 30-storey office building before it could be called the headquarters of Future Technology in the United States, right?
And now, once he saw it, Li Linfei no longer wanted to evaluate it.
"Boss, this place is what Fried and I have worked so hard to get, don't look at the place, but the area inside is large, several hundred acres, and the surrounding traffic is convenient, so we can build it ourselves."
Liu Lin explained, and then said with a bitter smile, "To the east and north, all the good places are taken by people who won't sell.
Li Linfei glanced at him, thinking about it, Liu Lin left out, he hadn't been here long, not many people knew him, and Fried? There is money is one problem, but such a good place, just because you Fried's upper lip touches the lower lip to buy, they are not stupid, such a good prime location.
So what if you're a GM owner, we're not selling, what can you do to me?
"What about the other places, how is the factory search going, have you got all the appropriate materials?" Li Linfei asked.
"Don't worry, according to your instructions, Mr. Fried and I have bought ten large electronic factories, plus the electronic factories owned by GM, there are thirty in total, all of them are currently in production, the daily production of electronic watches is around 700,000, now there are 15 million Super Star electronic watches in stock." Liu Lin replied seriously.
"Whether the production is fast or not is another story, the main thing is that the quality must be up to scratch." Li Linfei said.
Because Future Technology's products won with quality and quality, there were no problems at home, and in the United States, it was all the more important to do a meticulous job so as not to be attacked in this regard, while still making a big profit from the Yanks in a dignified manner and making them pay out willingly.
At this point, a Chinese next to Liu Lin said, "Don't worry, Mr Li, the quality is strictly checked by our company every day, with repeated spot checks, and all of them are qualified watches."
"These are?" Li Linfei looked at the Chinese man and swept his eyes at the other four people.
Chapter 590
Liu Lin saw this and gave them a wink.
"Mr. Li, my name is Yang Lin." The Chinese man who had just spoken hastily gave Li Linfei his hand.
Li Linfei shook it with him.
Immediately afterwards, the remaining one Chinese and three whites also shook hands with Li Linfei in turn and introduced themselves.
The second Chinese was called Li Wen and the three whites were Yohansen, Alec and Eliade.
Both Yang Lin and Li Wen were in their thirties and seventies and had spent many years in the United States and had a lot of marketing experience. One of them had worked for Android and the other for Yahoo, and they were very capable.
One of them, Yang Lin, is Liu Lin's assistant, while Li Wen is the vice president in charge of production and manufacturing.
As for Johansen, he was also the company's vice-president.
Alec and Elliott, the former in charge of the company's marketing operations and the latter in charge of the company's web technology supervision.
Of course, their positions are all temporary, Liu Lin is only making a preliminary selection, ultimately whether it has to work, also depends on Li Linfei's personal opinion.
In addition to their five people, the company headquarters there are a large number of employees, up and down together, a total of more than seven hundred people.
If we include the ten employees of the electronics factory, the number exceeds 10,000.
However, this number was still too small in Li Linfei's opinion, as it was the peak time for layoffs in the US, and everyone knew why.
After a few exchanges, Li Linfei and the others did not linger in front of the main gate of the headquarters, and under Liu Lin's arrangement, they went to a nearby five-star hotel and got a private room to receive Li Linfei.
They slept overnight in the hotel's presidential suite to adjust to some jet lag.
Early the next morning, Li Linfei took Li Yi and Li Er to the current company headquarters.
He didn't go inside last night, but today, after taking a look, he found that the place was not as bad as he had thought before.
It was surrounded by greenery, a wide road and easy access to all kinds of roads.
Surrounded by a high courtyard wall, there are three small five-storey buildings inside, which are the main office areas.
As you go inside, the ground is all cemented, there are wide field dams of tens of thousands of square metres, and rows of tall and spacious workshops and warehouses.
In addition, next to the office building, there are integrated shops and restaurants, as well as the usual recreational facilities and leisure areas.
To the south, partitioned off, there is a small European-style villa with sunshades and a couple of spa pools.
According to Liu Lin, this villa was reserved especially for Li Linfei, who could live there if he wanted to, or not if he didn't want to, as he wished anyway.
After spending the morning, Li Linfei was able to wander around the entire headquarters area.
At noon, in a Chinese restaurant, Li Linfei asked, "Apart from the headquarters and the electronics, don't you have any other places to occupy?"
When he heard Li Linfei's question, Liu Lin let go of his chopsticks and said, "Yes, Mr Li, I forgot to tell you that we bought three other factories and two plots of land in the suburbs of Detroit under Mr Fried's introduction."
"Oh? The new factory or the old one?" What Li Linfei cared about was the factory, as for the land, he didn't think it mattered.
"This, it's not easy to say exactly, but all three factories were built within ten years and then closed down without doing anything, the smallest area is at one hundred and twenty acres, and the largest one is over three hundred acres."
Liu Lin said, "But General Li, although the areas near those factories are basically all saleable land, the only drawback is that the location is a bit remote."
Li Linfei nodded at his words, then said afterwards, "It doesn't matter if the location is remote or not, the factory is not a physical shop, it doesn't need too many people, have you finished eating?"
"Finished eating." Liu Lin hurriedly took a napkin and wiped his mouth.
"Finish eating then let's go, let's go to the biggest factory." Li Linfei stood up.
"Okay." Liu Lin also followed suit and stood up.
So, after leaving the restaurant, Li Linfei, Li Yi, Li Er and Liu Lin got into a car and went back to the company and turned around before heading straight to a factory that Liu Lin had bought.
About half an hour later, they arrived at the factory.
Getting out of the car, Li Linfei looked around and said with a smile on his face, "This place is indeed remote."
There was not a single house around the factory, and there were no farmers' plants, and the area was bare, so it was really sparsely populated.
Liu Lin smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Li, there are no more plots or factories in the zone near the city, so I bought this place ......."
"It's fine, it's good, this place is great!" Li Linfei waved his hand to interrupt him and smiled to express his satisfaction indeed.
In Li Linfei's opinion, it didn't matter if it was remote or not, rather, it was easier to operate something unknown in a remote area than in a busy downtown area, and it was more convenient to operate.
