Chapter 440: First quarter performance

Putting aside the matter of Yuzhou Special Steel for the time being, Han Songlin looked at the performance of Fuxing Industrial and Fuxing Power in the first quarter. Fuxing Industrial produced 400,000 motorcycles throughout the first quarter, and exported more than 300,000 motorcycles!

It exported 285,000 motorcycles to Southeast Asia, and 15,000 motorcycles to the South American market.

Moreover, this export volume will continue to increase in the future.

Fuxing Industry's production base on the Jiangzhong side has been expanded time and again, and it is recruiting workers every day.

It is easy to recruit workers for the production line, and the technical requirements are not that high, so they can be trained to take up the job with a little training.

This is undoubtedly a pretty good thing.

In fact, the wages for these unskilled jobs are definitely much higher than outside, and even higher than similar factories.

However, compared to skilled workers, the gap is quite large.

Xinghai Group has now set up an internal certification system for skilled workers. This certification is an internal certification within the group, and as long as you pass the certification, you will be able to receive a technical allowance.

Many people attach great importance to this technical allowance.

It can be tens, hundreds, or even thousands of dollars a month.

As for Fuxing Power, in the first quarter, 750,000 motorcycle engines were produced, supplying 400,000 to Fuxing Industry, 250,000 to other domestic motorcycle companies, and the remaining 100,000 engines were exported to FOXI Motors.

Motorcycle engines have now become the main source of income for Fuxing Power, earning it nearly 100 million yuan in profits every month.

Such income also supports Fuxing Power's continued investment in research and development.

Of course, with motorcycle engines being so important, Fuxing Power naturally attaches great importance to them, and the number of motorcycle engine R&D personnel has been increased again and again.

The laboratory has also been specially separated out.

In fact, the original laboratory was no longer enough, and a new one was built again.

In addition to the motorcycle engine laboratory, there are also the existing diesel engine and gasoline engine laboratories.

Fuxing Power has also recently established a new laboratory:

the motor R&D centre.

That's right, it researches electric motors.

Fuxing Industry and Fuxing Power really don't have anything to worry about.

As for Changxing Machine Tools, production has already recovered. Thanks to strict quality management, the quality of the machine tools previously produced by Changxing Machine Tools has improved considerably.

Some machine tools have been electrified to enable automated processing.

The processing accuracy is quite good, and Changxing Machine Tools doesn't want to make a lot of money. It mainly focuses on the low-end market.

To be honest, it doesn't matter if it makes money or not.

As long as they don't lose money in production, it's fine as long as the entire manufacturing team has something to do.

Changxing Machine Tools is also constantly training new skilled workers.

The machine tool industry has relatively high requirements for the quality of workers.

Xinghai Group places a lot of emphasis on the cultural education of workers.

Overall, Changxing Machine Tools was in a loss-making state in the first quarter.

This loss was mainly due to investment in research and development.

Among the enterprises under Xinghai Group, which one performed the best in the first quarter?

Fule Wines?

It's not really Fule Liquor, but it's Fumanduo Supermarket.

Fumanduo Supermarket's supermarket shopping cards sold a total of 500 million yuan during the Chinese New Year holiday!

Fumanduo supermarket shopping cards have an expiration date, which means they must be used this year.

It's actually terrifying to have no time limit.

Because of technological development, things that seem difficult to crack now may be cracked easily in the future.

At this time, who can say for sure whether the card is real or fake?

The expiration date is clearly marked on the card.

Apart from supermarket shopping cards, the membership system introduced by Fumanduo Supermarket has been very well received.

In particular, when Fumanduo Supermarket was promoting the system, it also said that after technology developed to a certain level in the future, the nationwide Fumanduo Supermarket network would be realised.

No matter which Fumanduo Supermarket you go to across the country, you will be able to enjoy the membership price.

Of course, if you apply for a card now, you can also enjoy the Fumanduo membership discount after you go out of the province by showing your membership card. However, there is no way to achieve nationwide networking yet, so you cannot accumulate points.

Fumanduo Supermarket promises to achieve nationwide

information networking for the entire Fumanduo Supermarket within three years.

Currently, the number of members of the entire Fumanduo Supermarket has reached 3 million.

This is undoubtedly a very large number.

After all, nowadays, people who will apply for a Fumanduo Supermarket membership are basically all urban residents.

Moreover, in general, Fumanduo Supermarket members only need to apply for one card for the whole family, and the whole family can use it.

It doesn't matter if a family member doesn't have the card with them, as long as they can tell the membership account number.

Of course, without the card, Fumanduo Supermarket is not allowed to say that the customer can spend the balance in the membership account.

However, if you give cash, you can still accumulate points.

This is done, to put it bluntly, to allow those who do not have their card with them and want to buy something to go to the Fumandou supermarket and buy something.

If Fumandou had to see the card to recognise membership, would those who did not bring their card with them still come all the way to your door to buy something?

Wouldn't they just buy it at a random convenience store?

Membership points can be exchanged for things. Basically every month, Fumandou Supermarket will launch a points redemption event.

Usually, they are products sold in the supermarket. However, for the goods that can be redeemed by members, Fumanduo Supermarket negotiates with the manufacturers to provide some free goods specifically for members to redeem.

This is considered a kind of advertising investment.

Faced with Fumanduo Supermarket's request, the manufacturers don't feel that there is a problem. After all, this kind of membership redemption activity does have a great promotional effect on the product.

In addition to redeeming small goods, during holidays, you can also spend points to draw motorcycles and even cars.

Of course, you can redeem the points for a motorcycle, but the points required are quite high.

You can earn a few points for every dollar spent, but you need millions of points to redeem a motorcycle.

Who cares about a motorcycle when you can spend millions in the supermarket?

Let's not talk about the performance of Fule Liquor in the first quarter, which is the off-season for liquor sales.

Han Songlin did some simple calculations on the computer, and the entire Xinghai Group's revenue in the first quarter was nearly 10 billion, but the actual figure was 9.3 billion!

After calculating this figure, Han Songlin was a little stunned. This was only the first quarter, and the revenue was already close to that of the whole previous year?

It just didn't seem scientific.

But on second thought, it didn't seem so strange after all.

In the first half of last year, Xinghai Group's revenue was not high, and in the second half, especially in the last quarter, the revenue went up.

It was only normal for the first quarter of this year to see a big surge.

This was especially true for Fumando Supermarket.
