Chapter 309: The Dongying Industrial Circle, which was pitted
Hearing Chen Geng's words, Yamada Zhuoji couldn't hold back any longer, and the resentment in his stomach was about to overflow: Chen Gengjun, why did I come to you so lowly, don't you really know?
Being stared at by someone, especially a big man, with such resentful eyes, Chen Gengdeng was a little unbearable.
Also, the thing was done by himself, just pretending to be confused, why did Takuji Yamada come to him, how could Chen Geng not know?
In a simple word, Honda was miserable by Chen Geng.
It's not that Chen Geng deliberately pitted Honda, in the current context of the cooperation between the two sides is quite pleasant, Chen Geng can't deliberately pit Honda Technology, the reason why Honda was pitted is ...... Well, there's a bit of drama in there.
Do you still remember that after learning the news that Fernandez won the bid for cooperation with Modu Automobile Factory, Wolfsburg angrily decided to unite the automobile production line suppliers throughout Europe to "block" Fernandez Company, and in order to bypass this blockade, Chen Geng had to find another way to go to Dongying?
That's it.
At that time, after Chen Geng arrived at Dongying, he went to find and could only go to Honda Motor, which had a cooperative relationship with him, hoping that Honda Technology would take the lead and introduce Dongying industry and banking to him, hoping that Dongying Bank would provide him with a low-interest loan, and then use this loan to purchase corresponding equipment and production equipment from Dongying industry, so as to piece together an automobile manufacturing plant with a complete four major body production processes, engines and gearboxes.
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. is not stupid, it is very clear that if he can promote this matter, it will improve Honda Giken's status in the Dongying industrial circle, and after thinking about it left and right, he felt that even the worst result was nothing more than that this business was not promoted, and it would not have any impact on Honda Motor Co., so he agreed, and then actively campaigned for Fernandez's matter.
And then......
Here's where things go bad.
At the critical moment, the damned European bastards actually coaxed!
Those proud Europeans were actually cowardly in front of Chen Geng, do you dare to believe this fact?
Honda didn't dare to believe it, but this is not the point, the point is that the European bastards coaxed, but the industrial and banking circles of Honda and Dongying were pitted, which means that Dongying is no longer the only one who can obtain all kinds of high-precision processing and testing equipment required by Chen Geng on an automobile production line.
The delay in cooperation does not mean that Dongying industry has given up this opportunity to go to the high-end.
If it weren't for Chen Geng jumping out to provoke this matter, representatives of Toei industry, such as Komatsu, OTC, Ishikawajima Harima Heavy Industries, Yaskawa Electric, ...... It will be a few years before they will cautiously test internationally, but now, in the face of such a good opportunity, how can they endure it?
But Chen Geng is no longer in Dongying, and Fernandez Company is not a Dongying company, in addition to putting pressure on Chen Geng at the beginning, what can this group of little devils with red eyes who have been given "**" by Chen Geng?
So Honda Motor Co., Ltd. was completely sad, and they were almost facing pressure from the industrial and banking circles of Toei.
This pressure fell on Takuji Yamada, the head of Honda Motor Co., Ltd.'s North American region...... In this case, you say, in addition to running desperately to Chen Geng, what can Takuji Yamada do?
Since they are all planning to see Takuji Yamada, it naturally means that Chen Geng intends to solve this matter, and after Takuji Yamada hurriedly mentioned the trouble encountered by Honda Giken, Chen Geng grinned: "This is my negligence." ”
Are you negligent?
Takuji Yamada wants to cry, can this matter be explained like that?
Just when he was about to speak hard, Chen Geng spoke again: "Mr. Yamada, since you came to me, I believe that your Dongying industry and banking industry must have a solution, let's talk about it, if the conditions are not too excessive, I can also consider it." Of course, if it's still the same as before, forget it. ”
After such a long time, Chen Geng finally relented, and Yamada Zhuoji was overjoyed! Even forgot the little devil's habitual false etiquette, and hurriedly said to Chen Geng: "Yes, yes, Chen Jun, considering that the current situation is very different from the beginning, the presidents of the various clubs in Dongying have revised the previous cooperation plan. Well, if you don't mind, I'll explain it to you in detail now?"
Chen Geng nodded, indicating that I was listening.
Slightly relieved, Takuji Yamada said cautiously: "For this production line, Ishikawashima Harima Heavy Industries hopes to become the general contractor of this project together with Huaxia Daiichi Heavy Industrial Manufacturing Corporation......"
Ishikawashima Harima Heavy Industries wants to become the general contractor of Lao Tzu's automobile production line? Chen Geng's brows immediately furrowed, but before he could speak, Takuji Yamada hurriedly said: "In this regard, Ishikawashima Harima Heavy Industries is willing to help you coordinate a loan with a term of 5 years + 5 years, a total of 50 million US dollars, and an annual interest rate of 1%. ”
Chen Geng, who originally felt a little guilty in his heart, suddenly became angry: "Mr. Yamada, are you sure you're not joking with me?"
$50 million sounds like a lot, but it is less than a car factory with both engine and transmission production capacity, and this amount of money is not even one-tenth of the entire project.
As soon as Takuji Yamada was about to explain, he saw that Chen Geng waved his hand: "Do you want to rely on this project to become a system integrator for automobile production lines?" Mr. Yamada, can you help me tell Ishikawashima Harima Heavy Industries, which is also the oldest old heavy industry giant in Toei, why is it so stingy?"
Stingy?
Takuji Yamada felt that his eyes were black for a while, and he felt that Chen Geng was simply greedy to the extreme: 50 million US dollars! This is 50 million US dollars, just for such a naming right, Ishikawajima Harima Heavy Industries paid 50 million US dollars, is it not enough?
Chen Geng laughed, as long as he looked at Yamada Zhuoji's expression, he knew what this guy was thinking at this moment, and said honestly and politely: "Mr. Yamada, you have to make it clear, this is a loan, and the loan is ...... It's going to be returned. ”
Takuji Yamada was speechless.
Generally speaking, for any bank, a loan of 50 million US dollars is a huge amount of money, and it is not generally difficult to get such a large loan from the bank, especially in the industrial field, because there are too many manufacturers of the same type of product, and the manufacturer wants to get a loan from the bank to expand production, which is actually very difficult, let alone such a large sum of 50 million US dollars.
But there are always exceptions, and of all industrial production, the manufacture of automobiles and aircraft is a very special exception, these two industries represent the pinnacle of industrial manufacturing, and it is almost impossible to imitate, so it is quite easy for companies in these two industries to get loans from banks.
From this point of view, if Chen Geng agrees to the conditions of Ishikawa Island Harima Heavy Industry, it is stupid, 50 million US dollars seems to be a lot, but the 50 million US dollars is not given away in vain, Chen Geng is going to repay the bank with interest, it is nothing more than that the term of the loan is a little longer, but for automobile manufacturers, is this a problem?
It is precisely because of this understanding that Takuji Yamada understands why he is so annoyed by admitting it, in fact, he himself feels that in this matter, Ishikawashima Harima Heavy Industry is indeed a little stingy.
Fortunately, this is not all there is to Harima Heavy Industries in Ishikawashima.
"Chen, that's right," Takuji Yamada respectfully explained, "This $50 million loan is just a sign that Ishikawajima Harima Heavy Industries has obtained the title qualification, and if you promise to purchase 30% of the equipment required for the entire project from Ishikawajima Harima Heavy Industries, Ishikawajima Harima Heavy Industries can help you coordinate a long-term loan totaling no less than $200 million at an annual interest rate of no more than 1.5%. ”
That's pretty much it!
It's not that the conditions are about the same, it's that the loan amount given by Ishikawajima Harima Heavy Industries is about the same.
But since it is now the little devil begging for himself, if he doesn't slaughter the little devil ruthlessly, he is sorry for himself, Chen Geng shook his head: "Mr. Yamada, since you are talking to me as a representative, I believe that you should be very clear about the conditions I put forward before, so I won't go around in circles with you."
Let Dongying's enterprise become the supplier of this production line? No problem, this is what we said at the beginning, I, Chen Geng, am not the one who crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, but I have a few conditions. ”
"Tell me. Takuji Yamada breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said.
He himself, Honda Motor Co., Ltd., and even the entire Dongying industry are not afraid of Chen Geng's conditions, what they are afraid of is that Chen Geng will directly ignore him, and that is the big problem.
Chen Geng was also not polite: "First, as an American company, I must balance the interests of the American company, before Mr. Henry Ford helped me speak, several companies in the United States also made it clear that they would provide me with equipment when I was blocked, this favor is my leader;
Second, in terms of loans, I once again made it clear that all the construction funds for this production line will be provided by Dongying's banks in the form of low-interest and interest-free long-term loans, of which the proportion of interest-free loans cannot be less than 40%, and the funds must be in place within one year, of which the first batch of loans must be in place within one month, and not less than 20%. ”
"Please rest assured, I will definitely report your intentions to His Excellency the President. Yamada Zhuoji bowed deeply to Chen Geng and said respectfully.
