Comfortable life in Siheyuan

"You may not understand what's going on. You have all seen suitcases, right? Just from the patent for suitcases, our country can earn a large amount of foreign exchange every year.

Moreover, the export volume of luggage from our country is still increasing every year. This is all created by Comrade Liu Qingshan!"

Liu Qingshan felt embarrassed by what President Zhu said and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"President Zhu, thank you for the compliment. I just read a few more books and happened to understand the content of the patent." Liu Qingshan explained with a smile.

"You happened to be lucky! If you hadn't set the precedent, many of us wouldn't have realized the importance of patents. We suffered losses when the Canton Fair was first held.

Our workers are very honest. They answer whatever others ask us, without any suspicion. Later, a group of us were organized to learn about patents, and only then did we understand the business rules outside. "

After President Zhu finished speaking, he sighed heavily! It seems that he has suffered losses in this regard in the past.

"In fact, even if I didn't say it, the country would have noticed this. I'm just a little ahead of time." Liu Qingshan said modestly.

"Of course we will notice it, but we might suffer a great loss." President Zhu said with a sigh.

Liu Qingshan sighed deeply in his heart. He had learned some relevant knowledge in his previous life and knew that there were thieves around our country.

They specifically registered some of our important heritage as patents. In the end, we cannot use them ourselves and have to pay them money. This is really ridiculous.

"What's going on? I heard from Director Xu that you are planning to go back? Why don't you stay a few more days? I just met you and I have a lot of things I want to talk to you about!" President Zhu asked with a smile.

"I have already booked a flight for tomorrow. I came here today to say goodbye! I have work to do when I go back, and I really can't stay here any longer." Liu Qingshan explained.

"Work matters are easy to deal with. It's work anywhere! Why don't you stay a few more days?" President Zhu said with a smile.

"It's really not suitable! My wife and children all have jobs and are planning to go back together." Liu Qingshan said with a wry smile.

"That's such a pity!" President Zhu fell silent for a moment.

Liu Qingshan lowered his head and thought for a while, then stood up and said, "Chairman Zhu, leaders, please sit down for a while. I'll go downstairs and give a few words. I'll come back later and we'll talk again!"

Liu Qingshan was afraid that Sha Zhu and the others were getting anxious waiting, so he prepared to go down and tell them!

"No need to go to such trouble. I'll ask him to sit in the reception room and I'll talk to him!" Director Xu quickly stood up and agreed.

"Don't bother Director Xu, I can go by myself!" Liu Qingshan said quickly.

"It's not a big deal. These are just small matters. Just go ahead and talk about your business." Director Xu pushed Liu Qingshan to sit down and then walked out the door.

Liu Qingshan looked at the people in the room and said with a smile: "Leaders, I have actually made a general observation in the venue and found that we still have too few things that can be exported.

The total amount of things in the entire venue seems to be quite a lot. But there is a premise, this is something that our entire country can show off! "Liu Qingshan sighed.

"What can we do? It's only been a few years since our reform and opening up, and it's the result of the efforts of many people to have the current scale!" President Zhu frowned and took a deep breath!

"Yes, we are indeed somewhat powerless in this regard. And we don't know enough about foreigners.

In the hardware exhibition area, there are many kitchen utensils on display, but without exception, they are all commonly used by our people! No one knows what kind of kitchen knives foreigners use! "Liu Qingshan couldn't tell the difference between the knives, but he was sure that foreigners didn't use the kitchen knives we use here, and he couldn't use them well!

"So, I think we should not only showcase our products, but also understand foreign demands and habits," Liu Qingshan said with a serious expression. "Only in this way can we truly open up the international market."

After hearing Liu Qingshan's words, President Zhu's eyes lit up instantly, but then dimmed again!

President Zhu knew this, but going abroad was not easy these days.

Liu Qingshan said, "We cannot rest on our laurels and need to learn more about the dynamics and demands of the international market."

President Zhu agreed, “It seems we still have a lot of work to do.”

"We can ask comrades from the External Relations Department or patriotic overseas Chinese to buy some of these samples, and then we can redesign the packaging based on these samples. By then we will definitely be able to increase a lot of export orders!" Liu Qingshan explained.

"Some of us have mentioned your idea before, and even went to Hong Kong to buy some things and brought them back! We don't know what to produce!" There are also smart people in the leadership of the trade center! It's just that their vision limits their development!

Liu Qingshan thought about it carefully in his mind, and then slowly said: "Let's not just think about exporting our machine tools and milling machines! Our products are not advantageous, and we will definitely not get many orders!

Since we cannot export these advanced products, let's change our thinking. We can produce kitchen utensils, pots and pans, and small molds used abroad, and our prices can be half as cheap as theirs! Isn't this a competitive advantage?"

President Zhu clapped his hands excitedly, "Yes! Why didn't we think of that!"

Liu Qingshan went on to say: "Moreover, we can also design targeted products based on the cultural characteristics of different countries and regions.

For example, European and American regions prefer simple styles, so we can launch simple and elegant kitchenware; while Southeast Asian regions prefer gorgeous decorations, so we can add more patterns and colors to our products. "

Chairman Zhu nodded repeatedly, "This is a good idea. I will suggest it to each factory!"

"I'm just giving you an example. You have to figure out a lot of things on your own. Ultimately, we have one advantage: price!

Starting with some daily necessities with low technical difficulty, we make the appearance more beautiful and control the quality well, how can there be no orders!

Isn't profit what matters most to people in capitalist countries? As long as there is money to be made, they will definitely place orders from us!"

"Yes, high technology can't do it. Can't we do the basic things? After this exhibition is over, we still have to understand their preferences!" President Zhu said with a smile.

"More than that, we also need to understand their pricing. Our goods will be cheaper when exported, but they can't stay this cheap forever.

We need to understand their pricing, and it would be best if we could get their purchase price." Liu Qingshan said firmly!

"Yes, but this is easier said than done!"
