MTL - Rebirth of the Flying Era-Chapter 991 transactions under the water
Chapter 991 Transactions Under the Water
Du Fei returned to the house, and was not in a hurry to report the situation here to Dad Zhu.
What he said to Bush just now can only be regarded as a last-ditch effort.
I don't have much confidence in my heart.
It doesn't make any sense to report now.
Besides, Du Fei has already done everything he can. Now that the ball is passed, it depends on the opponent's choice.
The best result is of course that Senator Gale is willing to settle the matter with Du Fei for his own benefit.
Although Vincent did not disclose Senator Gale's interests and concerns in Canada before, Du Fei estimated that it must be very important.
Otherwise, people like Bush would not be easily used.
Given the prominent status of the Bush family, if Senator Gore wants him to do things, he must pay an extra price.
In addition, as soon as Du Fei met Vincent and Henry on the front foot, Bush came to the door on the back foot.
It shows that Senator Gale is very anxious.
This is also the reason why Du Fei decided to try blackmail.
Even if the hope is not great, it does not hinder the three poles if there is no date.
For the next two days, Bush did not make any movement.
At this time, the most test is the determination of one's mind.
Du Fei was a little better. He sent a crow to stare at Bush early in the morning.
That day Bush rode his car away and immediately returned to the Swiss Museum of History.
These two days I lived in seclusion, I didn’t go anywhere, I didn’t see anyone.
Apparently he's also waiting for a reply from Senator Gale.
In this matter, Bush is just a sounding board and has no decision-making power.
Similarly, Du Fei faintly felt that this matter was beyond his control.
Sure enough, at noon on the third day, Du Fei received a call from his secretary asking him to go to Dad Zhu's office immediately.
Came to Dad Zhu's office with ease.
As soon as he entered the room, Dad Zhu didn't work at his desk, but sat on the sofa with a smile.
"Xiao Fei, come and sit~" Dad Zhu smiled and waved.
Du Fei called "Dad", walked over and sat down, and asked directly, "Is there something going on in Meidi?"
Papa Zhu said: "Oh? You guessed it."
Du Fei looked earnest, and took the opportunity to talk about the meeting with Bush a few days ago.
Finally, he said: "Dad, I wanted to wait for the other party's reaction before reporting to you. But in the past two days, there has been no news... I guess, the other party may think that I am low-ranking, so I directly found another communication channel..."
Papa Zhu raised his hand and nodded at Du Feixu, his tone not without admiration: "You boy! A few hours ago, they contacted us through a secret channel, and the other comrades didn't know what was going on, and they were all baffled."
Du Fei guessed right when he heard it.
This is also normal, involving tens of millions of dollars, four countries, and countless interests... How could it be possible for people of Du Fei's level to operate all the time.
But I was a little depressed.
If before, according to the normal transaction, the account of the fire equipment company was used, Du Fei would definitely be able to retain part of the funds.
Although not too much, there are always several million RMB.
Now, I'm afraid I need a bamboo basket to fetch water.
Thinking of this, Du Fei couldn't help but roll his eyes.
It is definitely not possible to suffer a loss.
Based on what Dad Zhu meant, Du Fei would definitely not be able to negotiate with the United States in this matter.
Thinking of this, Du Fei wisely stopped clinging to this matter.
Anyway, I have told Father Zhu about the situation, so he doesn’t have to worry about how to exchange benefits and how to bargain.
Du Fei organized his language a little bit, and said hehe: "Dad, that... Look at my up and down this time, there is no credit but hard work, don't we..."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his fingers.
Papa Zhu was in a good mood, and Du Fei had to invent a new trick for something he hadn't expected.
In the following bargaining, I will definitely get a lot of benefits from Lao Mei.
laughed and said: "You boy... say, what do you want?"
Du Fei was not too polite, he said: "Dad, I heard that our Jingcheng Tractor Factory seems to be not doing well..."
Papa Zhu raised his eyebrows and glanced at him: "Do you want it?"
Du Fei nodded.
Although it bears the name of "Jingcheng", the scale of "Jingcheng Tractor Factory" is not large. There are only more than 1,000 people in the whole factory.
It was originally a machine repair shop dedicated to repairing tanks and cannons for the troops. Later, the technology introduced from the First Tractor Factory began to produce crawler tractors and small tractors.
Different from the 8270 factory, the Jingcheng Tractor Factory was not split into the southwest, but the business situation was not good.
The scale is small, the output is low, there are no competitive products, and there are no people who can speak in the ministries and commissions.
The business situation can only be said to be passable.
After careful consideration, Du Fei decided on this factory.
If the deal with Canada goes well, after getting the money, Du Fei plans to acquire the Jingcheng Tractor Factory before the end of the year.
First of all, this factory is not big, and the operation is not very good.
The higher-level unit will not hold on to it. As long as the price is reasonable and a little operation, it is not difficult to get it.
Secondly, and most importantly, Du Fei took a fancy to its ability to produce tracked chassis and maintain tanks.
Wait until next year to get Sugoose's t62 tank in Longjiang.
There is a tractor factory capable of producing chassis, Li Mingfei's rolling mill produces car bodies, and 8270 factory cooperates.
At that time, Du Fei will be able to quickly create a knockoff version of t62 by following the gourd painting.
At this time, the t62 tank can be regarded as the most advanced tank in the world, and with the blessing of the Sugoose halo, it is definitely famous.
As long as it can be imitated, even if the performance is slightly worse, it definitely has the potential to become a hit.
Although you can't expect that kind of national level, a large order of hundreds of vehicles at a time.
But for some local forces, selling ten or eight cars is enough.
Tanks are serious big things, and you can earn more from selling one tank than thousands of rifles.
Papa Zhu didn't wave his hand, but asked the secretary to bring over the materials of the Jingcheng Tractor Factory.
Zhu's father is not a god, and there are tens of thousands of factories in the country, and it is impossible to keep them in his heart.
The secretary acted quickly, and within a few minutes, he delivered a document bag with the words Jingcheng Tractor Factory written on it.
Brother Zhu took it over, took a brief look at the situation of the factory, frowned, and looked at Du Fei: "Xiao Fei, this factory almost lost money last year."
Du Fei smiled and said, "Dad, I can't make things difficult for you. If it's really a big factory that pays its profits every year, can the First Machinery Department let it go easily?"
Papa Zhu didn't say anything, but he was quite comfortable in his heart.
I was very pleased that the son-in-law could put himself in his shoes, and finally waved his hand: "Okay, I will give you this factory, but the ugly thing is, once the factory is in your hands, you have to support yourself, and you can no longer point to the superior unit."
Du Fei understood that the very important reason why Jingcheng Tractor Factory didn't lose money last year was that the First Machinery Department allocated a lot of production tasks.
Once I get to Du Fei's place, I'm sure I won't be able to eat this one.
Du Fei was mentally prepared, and immediately said: "Dad, don't worry, I understand."
After finishing talking, Du Fei didn't waste much time, and happily came out and rode his motorcycle back.
Today is regarded as the loss of Sangyu, and the harvest of the East.
Successfully winning the Jingcheng Tractor Factory is crucial to Du Fei's next plan.
After Du Fei left, Dad Zhu immediately made a phone call, then hurried out and walked to another yard.
As soon as he entered the room, there was a voice full of enthusiasm: "Jietai is here~"
Papa Zhu entered the room, straightened his back, and stood at attention.
The people in the room said "sit down".
"Yes~" Dad Zhu sat down on the sofa, and immediately told the whole story of Du Fei's report just now.
After he finished speaking, the old man in the room laughed loudly: "It's a good thing he can figure out an invoice for 50 million yuan."
Zhu's father also laughed and said: "Stinky boy, you know how to mess around."
The old man said: "I think it's very good! Jietai~ Your son-in-law... is very good."
…
Du Fei didn't know, but he got a 'very good' evaluation.
After coming out of Dad Zhu, he didn't go back to the unit directly, but went to the guest house to meet Vincent.
We have to continue to cooperate in the future, and we must make it clear to Vincent to avoid suspicion.
After a few days, I saw Vincent again, and he had recovered from his depression.
The whole person is much more energetic.
After exchanging pleasantries, Du Fei was straightforward, and Meidi had already stepped over him to contact Shangfeng directly.
As soon as Vincent heard it, he knew it was completely over.
Fortunately, I was mentally prepared earlier. Without much hope, it is not disappointing.
took time to say: "Forget it, I guessed it a long time ago, this money is not easy to earn." Zhuan asked again: "What about you? What should I do if I produce those things?"
Du Fei said helplessly: "Digest slowly~"
On the surface, Du Fei suffered a greater loss this time. Production started early in the morning, and he has already stocked up a lot.
On the Canadian side, only a one million deposit was given.
This deposit is definitely non-refundable.
Now it is a case of force majeure. It is not that Du Fei does not supply the goods, but that there is no way to ship them.
The blame can only be blamed on an overbearing and unreasonable neighbor next to Canada.
But even with these deposits, the 8270 factory worked overtime to produce equipment and ammunition, which means that it barely lost money.
If you count the transfer from other factories, this million dollars is definitely not enough.
However, Du Fei was not too entangled. The experience of transforming mortar shells this time is the biggest gain.
However, Du Fei did not expect it.
When he returned to work, an unexpected guest came.
I saw Zheng Qingchun and Wu Hongqi were still in the reception room.
The guest this time is not Bush, but Mr. Bethune, Henry Norman.
"Du ~ nice to meet you." Henry greeted Du Fei, and it was obvious that he was not in a good condition.
Even though her hair is combed meticulously and her beard is clean-shaven, she can't hide the bloodshot eyes.
Seeing this, Du Fei didn't exchange hypocritical greetings, and directly said with a sad face: "Henry, I'm very sorry..."
Henry Norman forced a smile: "It's not your fault, my friend..." He couldn't help gnashing his teeth: "It's all those ungrateful red necks! Those damned bastards..."
Henry Norman completely disregarded the so-called gentlemanly demeanor, and greeted his neighbors to the south with a series of vicious words.
After finishing the work, he looked at Du Fei again: "Du, we are friends, right?"
"Of course~" Du Fei readily agreed, knowing that Henry definitely didn't just come here to scold others.
Henry said earnestly: "That kind of mortar...can you still sell it to me?"
Du Fei said without hesitation: "Of course, Henry, don't forget, you have paid a deposit, and we flower growers value integrity the most."
Henry breathed a sigh of relief: "I want fifty sets of that kind of mortar."
Actually, when he came back and saw Henry just now, Du Fei guessed his intention.
Although the way to purchase equipment on a large scale has been blocked, there are still opportunities for small batches to go through special channels.
After all, in the vast Pacific Ocean, even if it is as strong as the United States, it is impossible to cover everything.
As for how Henry Norman transported the fifty sets of mortars and shells back, that is not Du Fei's concern.
However, the promise was made, but the delivery could not be made immediately.
Through the contact between Du Fei and Bush, the higher authorities will continue to send people to bargain with Senator Gore.
At this time, we must not add chaos.
After the negotiation is over, take the benefits that should be taken.
At that time, those scruples will be gone.
Even if Meidi finds out, we don't have to admit it at all.
Anyway, how could it be possible to create such advanced mortars with 'backward technology' planting flowers.
However, the result of the matter was far beyond Du Fei's expectations.
He didn't know how the two parties communicated in private, and what kind of benefits they exchanged.
Five days later, Du Fei and Zhu Ting went home for dinner.
Papa Zhu specially called Du Fei to the study after dinner.
It can be seen that Dad Zhu is in a particularly good mood today.
In the evening, I specially asked Du Fei to have a drink.
At that time, Du Fei guessed that the negotiation with Meidi might have turned out well.
After all, the other party is just a party represented by Senator Gere, representing their self-interest, not the United States as a whole.
In this case, it is not surprising to make some concessions in order to preserve self-interest.
But when Du Fei heard the final price, he was still taken aback!
"Dad! Did I hear you right~" Du Fei's eyes widened, his face in disbelief: "70-70 million dollars?"
Papa Zhu smiled, took a sip of tea, and nodded at him.
Du Fei blinked his eyes quickly, his brain spinning rapidly.
Logically, it shouldn’t be!
Could it be that Senator Gale got his head caught in the door? How could such a sky-high price be given.
At the beginning, Du Fei opened his mouth to ask for 20 million, and he felt that the lion had opened his mouth. After thinking about the final bargain, he could reach 13 to 4 million.
Converted into RMB, it is exactly over 40 million, which can almost wipe out the profit of this transaction.
Who knows, within a few days, not only did it not decrease, but it more than tripled.
What the **** is going on?
Du Fei's brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about what was going on.
Everything in the world is marked with a price tag, and it is impossible to give it to you for no reason.
Zhu's father watched him with a smile, obviously taking a test, to see if Du Fei could think of it.
But they didn't know that Du Fei was a jerk.
Thoughts were going around in my mind, and I quickly thought of the signs.
Immediately said: "Dad~ Is it... because of **** Goose?"
After much deliberation, Du Fei found that the only one who could make Meidi willingly take the money was this old enemy.
Now no one would have thought that in a few months, planting flowers would directly tear apart the face of Su Goose.
Apart from this, Du Fei really couldn't think of anything else that could be sold at this price.
50 million US dollars is really not a decimal at this time.
But if it is used to deal with Su Goose, this is not a problem.
Besides, it has been almost a year since Lin Tiansheng went to Longjiang Province, and he has already started making preparations. This is an established plan.
Zhu's father said lightly: "The other party brought it up first."
Du Fei felt a little complicated when he heard it.
This is obviously a test, let's see the reaction of planting flowers through the 50 million.
I don’t know how that Senator Gale did it, but he is really powerful.
Du Fei muttered in his heart, he really deserves to be Ying Jiang, he is really rich and powerful!
But having said that, the money is not for nothing.
It's just that these transactions under the water will never be brought to the table.
Du Fei thought for a while and hesitated a little.
Papa Zhu saw that he was hesitating to speak, so he smiled and said, "Is there anything to say?"
Du Fei let out a "huh" and organized his words a little: "Dad, we have something to say in private, do you think we can take this opportunity to speed up the easing of relations with the United States?"
Papa Zhu frowned, but didn't express his opinion directly.
Du Fei continued: "Now we and Big Brother will definitely not be able to go back to the past... If the United States is willing to open up trade, our economic pressure will be much less."
Zhu's father sighed: "Do you know what it means to be afraid of beating a wolf with a stick? Some things are very inertial, and it is impossible to change at will. You have a good idea and the right direction, but if you want to get a good result, these are not enough , You must also be patient and wait for an appropriate time."
Du Fei nodded and didn't say anything else.
Although Dad Zhu didn't give a clear answer, Du Fei had a premonition.
These things caused by selling equipment to Canada are likely to become the wings of a butterfly, fermenting over time, bringing huge deviations.
Coming out of Dad Zhu's study, Du Fei was a little absent-minded.
Back home, Zhu Ting couldn't help asking: "Xiao Fei, what did you say to Dad at night?"
Du Fei came back to his senses, smiled and said: "It's okay, by the way, the third uncle will come back for a meeting in a few days, I want to invite their family to our house for dinner."
Zhu Ting said: "What's there to think about, I don't know what to cook?"
Du Fei smiled, and simply stopped thinking about those messy things.
Just try your best.
A few days later, Vincent had already returned to Xiangjiang. Before he left, he asked Du Fei to help him find a way to get some new mortars to serve as samples for sales.
Du Fei readily agreed.
Henry Norman also left, but did not go with Vincent, but went to Tianjin to take a boat.
On board with him, there are fifty sets of purchased new mortars.
Still according to the original price, one set is 40,000 US dollars, and 50 sets is 2 million.
Nominally, it is an order signed at this year's trade fair and sent to Dongyang.
After arriving in Dongyang, they will be transshipped to the port on the west coast of the United States.
The cargo is unloaded from the port and transported by truck to Quebec.
It can also be regarded as attacking the unprepared and taking it by surprise.
The Americans never dreamed that Henry dared to send those mortars to their ports.
Sending Henry Norman away, this matter finally came to an end.
In the morning, the morning glow is bright.
Du Fei stood on the platform and looked at his watch.
The train is slowly coming into the station.
Yesterday Chen Zhongyuan called and said he would arrive early this morning.
Du Fei came to meet the station.
Unexpectedly, the train stopped, and Chen Zhongyuan came out, followed by an unexpected person.
