1019. Turn the other cheek and leave

When Zhou Fangyuan returned to the headquarters of Shijue, it happened that the senior management of Shijue had also completed the negotiation.

Eventually, the two sides sat down at the negotiating table.

Although Zhou Fangyuan's Yuanfang Group is the largest shareholder of Shijue, Shijue is also one of the "national treasures" of the Netherlands, so it is naturally impossible to hand over the core technology so easily.

In the end, the plan that Shijue came up with was that the Yuanfang Group wanted technology. But not in vain. Sjue requires Yuanfang Group to set up Sage Huaxia Company in the mainland, and Sjue Company must hold at least 45% of the shares, and Yuanfang Group needs to give Sjue 1 billion U.S. dollars a year for the use of technology for a period of five years, after five years, Yuanfang Group can use these technologies provided by Sjue for free.

It stands to reason that whether it is a 45% stake or a billion dollars a year in technology royalties, in fact, Yuanfang Group is acceptable. Although it is expensive, but there is this value, the domestic market is in the ascendant, at this time the ability of a domestic car with advanced technology to seize the market is not a joke, so even if it really spends so much money, Yuanfang Group has to earn.

But there was a play on words in it, which was accurately grasped by Zhou Fangyuan.

"When you say free to use, do you mean this batch of technologies, and what if there are new technologies in the future? Will you still give me free use?"

"Ahem...... It's not too late to discuss this when the time comes......"

"There's no need to discuss, if that's the case, then we don't need to continue to discuss with you. ”

Zhou Fangyuan stood up and looked down at the group of foreigners in front of him.

"I'm also the largest shareholder of this company, you guys play with me like this, okay, then let's see who can play to the end." ”

After speaking, Zhou Fangyuan walked out without looking back.

How could he have the leisure to talk to these foreigners? He came here to buy them, not to negotiate with others.

"Mr. Zhou, please wait a minute......"

The voice of President Shijue came from behind, and Zhou Fangyuan didn't bother to listen to it, and he didn't stop.

He knew what the other party wanted to say, and he just wanted to think about it more.

What is there to consider? He values Shijue, that is, he values the technology in the hands of Shijue, and Shijue does not look at the small company, but the technology is not bad, at least compared with Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen, there is not much gap. But what do these guys say? They only give their own technology for free? And after spending five billion dollars? What about playing?

If it is said that after spending five billion dollars, plus the shares he owns, the technology library of the future Shijue can be opened to himself for free, it is still reasonable. Including the shares of the branch, he can give it to the head office of Shijue. But if it's just this generation of technology, there's not much to say. Nowadays, the world's science and technology are changing with each passing day, and automobile technology is also a small change in three years and a big change in five years.

So he didn't bother to say anything more.

If you want to play, don't you?

Walking out of the Shijue headquarters, Zhou Fangyuan returned to where he lived, took out his mobile phone, and directly dialed a long-distance number in China.

"Boss. ”

"The negotiation team that came with me this time resigned, no use for. ”

"Yes!"

"Also, start figuring out how to block the shares of the Sjue, and then find a way to buy more. ”

"Understood. ”

wanted to play, Zhou Fangyuan decided to play with them to the end.

Although Zhou Fangyuan is now the majority shareholder of Shijue, it does not mean that he has a controlling stake. He only has about 32% of the shares of Shijue, which is still acquired from many aspects, and the shares of the other guys add up to more than Zhou Fangyuan, so he has no controlling stake. And the president of Shijue is a person trusted by other shareholders, and it is normal for the other party to not sell his face with the support of other shareholders.

So Zhou Fangyuan doesn't talk nonsense, and directly deals with you in the stock market. In recent years, Shijue has actually had a very bad time, the company's efficiency is not good, the market proportion has shrunk, and the stock has fallen year by year. If it is maliciously suppressed again, the consequences will be enough for the other side to drink a pot. When the time comes, forcibly acquire a batch of shares, no more, as long as you can have a controlling stake, what kind of bullshit president, fuck it, get out of here, leave your Zhang butcher, Lao Tzu can still eat pigs with hair?

……

Although he was very angry with the attitude of the senior management of Shijue, this did not affect Zhou Fangyuan's mood when he was in the Netherlands.

This time he didn't bring any guides, so he wandered around the Netherlands on his own.

The Netherlands is a small country, but don't underestimate it just because it's small.

Many people may not know that in fact, the Netherlands is quite technologically advanced.

Take a lithography machine as an example, looking at 233 countries and regions around the world, there are very few manufacturers that can manufacture lithography machines, among them, the Dutch ASML company is the world's top and strongest lithography machine manufacturer, and it is also the only manufacturer in the world that can manufacture EUV lithography machines. Although Fuso also has two lithography machine manufacturers: Nikon and Canon, it can no longer be compared with ASML, and the former glory has sunset, and ASML has monopolized the global high-end lithography machine market.

In layman's terms, the lithography machine is an indispensable tool in the manufacture of chips, and there is no chip without the lithography machine. It is precisely because of the monopoly of the market, coupled with the increasing demand for chips, that the lithography machine has added high added value, and its price is as high as 120 million US dollars per unit. 120 million US dollars, such a high cost, but many countries have to succumb to the Dutch, even the world's most sophisticated instrument, can be monopolized by the Dutch, which shows the country's scientific and technological strength.

The Netherlands is a leader in high-end manufacturing, such as Philips in the electronics industry, Shell in the petrochemical industry, Airbus in the aircraft manufacturing industry, and Unilever in the laundry industry. In addition, it is at the world's advanced level in the fields of optics, clocks, medical equipment, shipbuilding and so on. In the 2002 Fortune Global 500 list, 14 companies from the Netherlands were shortlisted. Among them, Royal Shell ranks 5th in the world, surpassing oil giants such as Saudi Aramco, BP, and ExxonMobil. Among them, Unilever owns well-known brands such as Qingyang, Dove, Lux, Heluxue, Shunai, and Lipton.

At present, the Netherlands is ranked 12th in the world in terms of scientific research, and there are more than a dozen Nobel laureates so far. Among the developed countries, the Netherlands is the only country that has signed a strategic alliance agreement with China in science and technology and has carried out long-term equal cooperation in the field of scientific research.

In fact, in addition to the leading level of science and technology, the Netherlands is also an unexpected surprise, it is the world's second largest exporter of agricultural products after the United States. With the export of agricultural products, the Netherlands makes a net profit of 240 billion a year, which is a huge contribution to the economy. In the 50s of the 20th century, with the strong support of the government, Dutch agriculture began its vigorous development, and after more than half a century of development and precipitation, it has formed today's high-tech agriculture. Nearly 20 years ago, the Netherlands made a national commitment to sustainable agriculture with the slogan "double the food with half the resources".

Today, the Netherlands exports the world's second-largest agricultural products each year, and the United States, which is the size of 270 Netherlands. In addition to mature crops, more than one-third of the seeds in the global vegetable seed trade are also grown in the Netherlands.

The Netherlands is known as the "Kingdom of Tulips", with a monopoly of 70% of the global market for flower exports and nearly 10 billion euros for horticultural products. In addition, the Netherlands is also known as the "vegetable garden" of Europe, ranking first in the world in vegetable exports, and the world's largest in potato seed exports and dairy production. The Netherlands is a big dairy country, and brands such as Mead Johnson, Meso, and Newcont are also selling very well in China.

The Netherlands may be small, but it is strategically located, with flat terrain and waterways. In addition, the Netherlands occupies the estuary of the Skell, Maas and Rhine rivers and plays an extremely important role in the economy of Western Europe.

Trade is a top priority for the Netherlands. Among them, the port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands ranks first in European countries in terms of cargo throughput all year round, and is the largest export transit station in Europe. In terms of land area, the Netherlands is only half of Chongqing, and it is indeed a small country, and its arable land area is only 5% of China's, but it is not to be outdone in the export of agricultural products, and even surpasses China.

The reason why the Netherlands can make the world's second largest export of agricultural products is due to the support of scientific and technological strength. Dutch agriculture is highly developed and cultivation techniques are advanced. Glass greenhouse technology is used to regulate temperature and humidity instead of sunlight. In addition, advanced hydroponic technology also makes crop production efficient and agricultural products of good quality.

The Netherlands is a country of water, flowers, and pastures.

On the green lowlands between the canals, black and white cattle, white-headed black cattle, and white-waisted and blue-billed black cattle are grazing with their heads down. Some cows have moisture-proof felt on their backs, and the herds eat grass and ruminate, sometimes standing still, as if they are thinking about something. The calf looks like a noble lady and has a dignified demeanor. The old cow is like the parent of the herd, and he is extremely dignified. As far as the eye can see, it is surrounded by turquoise velvety grasslands and black and white flower cows.

This is the real Netherlands.

The windmill village that didn't come before, this time Zhou Fangyuan came.

The Windmill Village is also a residential, open-plan reserve and museum, located 15 kilometres north of Amsterdam. The old buildings vividly depict Dutch life in the 17th and 18th centuries. Real houses, old shipyards, wooden shoe-making shows, and windmills attract thousands of visitors every year.

Zhou Fangyuan completely regarded himself as a tourist on foot this time, carrying a travel bag and walking casually on the territory of the Netherlands.

In the Netherlands, there are patches of green meadows and pastures, small rivers and lakes everywhere, the small rivers are like blue ribbons wrapped around the endless green fields, and the cottages with simple shapes and harmonious colors in the distance are beautiful and moving!

The ancient windmills are like open wings, turning in the wind, and the green grass and wild flowers form a unique scenery, adding a magical color to this fairytale world! There are also gorgeous tulips that have poured countless tourists, the tulips are fragrant in the season, and the smile of the delicate and charming girl is like the fragrance of flowers.

The secluded lakeside, windmills, green grass, and small houses, how pleasant! The red tulip fields, bursts of fragrance, and the windmills turn leisurely! This is really like a beautiful fairy tale world.

The tall building is also a work of art, classical, elegant, like a rich paint painting! On the green grass are black and white cows, herds of horses chasing each other, white sheep are leisurely, everywhere is filled with green, and even the air smells of grass.

He spent a few days visiting several beautiful spots that he had not visited before.

Barrage dam.

The Netherlands is low, with a quarter of the land below sea level. The Dutch people, who have been fighting the sea for centuries, have finally built a 1,800-kilometre-long embankment and reclaimed 700,000 hectares of land to the sea. So the Dutch have always proudly believed that "God created the world, and the Dutch created the Netherlands". The 32.5-kilometre-long Zuiderzee Dam, which connects the northern Netherlands, was completed in 1932 and has a 90-metre-wide foundation and 10 metres above sea level, with a motorway crest.

Amsterdam is a water city, and you can't see the flavor of the water city on a sightseeing cruise in Amsterdam. At night, Amsterdam is lit up along the canals and bridges, creating a romantic atmosphere. Surrounded by canals, Amsterdam leads the Dam Avenue to visit the Royal Palace, the New Church, the National Monument and Madame Tussauds. There are more than 60 galleries and museums in Amsterdam. Among them, the more representative ones are concentrated in the Museum Square. When you're tired, take a break at a nearby café and enjoy a Dutch laid-back.

Horen was a city that flourished during the boom of the Dutch East India Company in the Middle Ages. Today, the flocks of merchant fleets of the former Dutch Coachmen, and the bustling trading scene have only been preserved intact in Horen. This medieval town has completely preserved the traditional Dutch fishing industry, and here you can also taste the purest fried fish and raw herring snacks in the Netherlands. The quaint houses lining the streets and the bronze sculptures lining them tell the story of the Kingdom's storied history.

Giethoorn is the most beautiful village in the Netherlands. Named after the large number of wild sheep horns that the village's ancestors accidentally dug up while digging for peat, the water-town landscape of Giethoorn eventually earned the small village the title of "Green Venice". Later, the ditches were widened to allow large ships to pass through and transport supplies, resulting in today's canals and lakes.

The Hague is a metropolis where classical architecture coexists with modern art architecture: unlike other cities in the Netherlands, the high-rise buildings in the city center exude the vitality of the cosmopolitan city of The Hague, with statues of princes and nobles everywhere, churches and palaces everywhere, but they also embody the ancient royal atmosphere and strong cultural heritage of The Hague. To the northwest of The Hague is the famous West Vanningen Beach, which receives tens of millions of tourists every year and is a famous holiday destination. In addition, the Lilliputian Park in The Hague offers miniature views of all the tourist attractions in the Netherlands.

Maastricht is located in the southernmost part of the Netherlands, between the German-Belgian border, and is the oldest and most beautiful city in the Netherlands. Life in Maastricht is laid-back. In the heart of this historic city, people walk the medieval brick-lined paths for shopping, and when they get tired, they find a café or restaurant to rest. Nowhere else in the Netherlands are there as many cafés as here, and even in the cold winter months, the open-air cafés on Flettehofplatz are packed with customers.

After visiting these places, Zhou Fangyuan was finally ready to leave, and before leaving, he bought a lot of gifts and prepared to go back to his relatives and friends. In this matter, he didn't ask anyone else for help, he bought it all by himself, such as cheese, honey cakes, wooden shoes, Delft blue porcelain, licorice candy, etc., all of which are more representative gifts, Zhou Fangyuan bought a lot of each one, especially cheese, which was basically bought by tons, otherwise, it seemed that he couldn't reflect his mood of wanting to give gifts.

After buying the gifts, he had nothing else to do, took the plane and flew directly towards France. Since I've come here, I simply went to the vineyard to have a look.
