"Mr. Schultz, Mr. Schultz!"

A group of DKK workers chased after the factory gate, only to catch up with Schultz, an officer of the Trusteeship Bureau, who was striding ahead of him. The hula crowd sat him around again, and there was a fierce and chaotic voice from the crowd.

"Mr. Schultz, the difficulties of our DKK are only temporary, even if the Trusteeship Bureau wants to sell us, it should not be so eager, right? When the fluorine-free refrigerator we designed and produced opens the market, DKK will be well taken care of after it is sold. Our products are very competitive and DKK should not be treated like this!"

In the face of the encirclement of the workers, Mr. Schultz, who was a successful man, obviously did not care, and he waved his hand and said: "The profitability of the DKK is not calculated in this way by the Trusteeship Bureau, and you cannot look at the market economy with the experience of socialism. DKK is indeed a big business, but I must say that you are only one step away from bankruptcy!"

"DKK's products are now unpopular, your refrigerator is sold at a price of 140 marks, but the production cost is as high as 380 marks, which is a real loss!

"According to the algorithm of our market economy, the value of a factory should be calculated based on its net profit for the current period. And your DKK products are sold now at a loss, in terms of assets, it is naturally unhealthy, and there are only two ways to go through bankruptcy or selling. ”

"How can we calculate like this, we have 5,500 employees, 70,000 orders, 150 million fixed assets. In the mouth of your trusteeship bureau, it has turned into a loss-making enterprise and can only be sold bankruptly?

"What's so strange about this?" Schultz said indifferently, spreading his hands: "These are the rules of the game of the market economy, and you have lived under rancid socialism for too long, and it is inevitable that you will have uncomfortable analgesia." In fact, you don't have to worry so much, even if DKK is sold, you can still work in other companies, or simply come to West Germany!"

"Isn't it the same everywhere you work?"

……

Wang Chuanfu listened to the conversation in the crowd translated by Sun Lei, and from the perspective of a bystander, he quickly grasped a certain attitude expressed by Schultz.

For the West Germans of the Trusteeship, the enterprises of the GDR were not the accumulation of the blood and sweat of the country's compatriots – but the victors of an ideological war.

West Germany was a complete conqueror economically against East Germany, and East Germany was a complete loser.

The defeated in the violent wars of the past can still say, "If the vanquished still weep, the conqueror has not done his job." However, on the ideological battlefield, the losing side has already become "politically incorrect" even crying, so what basis do the conquered East Germans have to protect their interests?

Looking at the future of Germany's extreme anti-communist political ecology, the seeds were actually planted from the beginning of the German merger.

The terrible economic catastrophe that befell East Germany became a ticking time bomb within Germany. The plundering of East Germany by West Germany was based on the victory of the ideology of overthrowing socialism. As soon as socialism was recognized in Germany as not so "evil", the plundering of East Germany by West Germany suddenly became "evil". As a result, West Germany lost the political morality of its union with East Germany, and the country lost its legal basis for unity.

What Wang Chuanfu witnessed at this time was such a scene of revelry in West Germany and an elegy for the end of East Germany.

Since April 91, a director of the Trusteeship has died, and now the East German police are naturally more sensitive to the personal safety of the Trusteeship officers. Two police cars were parked next to the gate of the DKK factory, and heavily armed police officers were watching from the sidelines.

After explaining to the workers, Schultz fearlessly squeezed out of the crowd and slipped into his car and drove away. The crowd in front of the factory gate slowly dispersed in silence, and Sun Lei and Wang Chuanfu were able to squeeze in.

Sun Lei was obviously familiar with DKK, and led Wang Chuanfu through the factory nimbly, and soon found their office building.

The slightly older concrete office buildings don't look very fashionable, but who would have imagined that their compatriots to the west would be the management of this massive factory of 5,500 workers?

"Mr. Miller, we meet again. ”

Sun Lei pushed open the door of the office, and a fat man who looked to be at least nearly two hundred pounds was sitting behind the desk, holding a newspaper in his hand and sighing.

"It's Mr. Sun, hello. Fat Miller raised his head and saw Sun Lei and the Wang boatman behind him, and said hello listlessly.

"Let me introduce you, this is Director Wang of our China Nonferrous Metals Research Institute. ”

"Xiao Wang, Mr. Miller is the general manager of DKK. I just showed you the information, what do you want to introduce? Technology, equipment, drawings, these are all things that look for him in one sentence. Unless you want to buy DKK in its entirety, Mr. Miller can do it for you. ”

"Oh, Mr. Miller, hello, hello!"

Wang Chuanfu was a little flattered, and hurriedly stretched out his hand. The CEO of a large enterprise with 5,500 employees is so easy to meet. And looking at Miller's appearance, it seems that his life may not be smooth.

"Hello, Chinese friend. What do you want to buy this time? I still have 100,000 refrigerators in my factory, I don't know if you're interested. A good DKK fridge will cost you only $260. ”

"This ......"

Wang Chuanfu listened to Sun Lei's translation, and waved his hand again and again with some embarrassment.

The official exchange rate between China and the United States has now developed to a level of 1:6, and the exchange rate of the black market has always remained stable at 1:8, and the official exchange rate will definitely fall in the next few years. Therefore, in this case, China must strictly control the financial sector at home, otherwise it will be laundered by international hot money for several rounds, and the end will not be much better than Southeast Asia in 97.

Compared with the financial crisis of '97, the reason why China did not have such a tragic end is not because the Chinese and Chinese economy have ceased to be colonies of any other country since 49 years. In our own country, the Chinese can be said to be the same. Political autonomy is the fundamental reason to avoid the ripple of the Southeast Asian financial crisis.

The cost of a refrigerator at $260, that is, after importation, does not include tariffs, transportation and any other expenses, and the cost is as high as 15 to 2,000 yuan. For the Chinese who still have an average salary of only 350 yuan in the imperial capital, almost all the savings of a person in two years.

Such a price is obviously impossible for the boatman to accept.

Seeing the other party's expression of waving his hand, Miller couldn't help but sit back in his seat in despair. This result did not come as he expected, before the merger of the two Germanys, the DKK refrigerator only needed a maximum of 500 yuan even if it was converted into RMB, and it did not need the US dollar to be used as a settlement foreign exchange, which had a broad market prospect in socialist countries.

However, after the annexation of the East German mark by the West German mark, not a single refrigerator of the DKK could be sold.

Wang Chuanfu and Sun Lei sat down opposite Miller, and when he saw each other's appearance, he was also sad for a while. However, this is all self-inflicted by the East Germans, who let them have already lost in this ideological war?

The East Germans who flew over the Berlin Wall in all sorts of fancy ways never imagined that their hometown would one day.

Thinking of this, Wang Chuanfu forced himself to take out a pair of iron and stone hearts. He pondered for a while and said tentatively: "Manager Miller, I saw that your situation is not very good in your company's information. The main reason for this is that the production cost of DKK has risen to an unaffordable level. In that case, I have a proposal that can be mutually beneficial for both of us, so why not relocate your production line to China?"

"Oh?" Miller was immediately interested when he heard Sun Lei's translation.

At this time, Wang Chuanfu's future genius-level businessman's brain suddenly went online, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he puffed up a three-inch tongue.

"Yes, we have the General Research Institute of Nonferrous Metals that can provide a variety of resources such as production sites, workers, materials and transportation, and DKK can provide production lines, technology, design and management. We are working together to transfer some of the high-cost parts of DKK to China. The products we produce can be supplied to DKK for purchase at a low price. As a result, DKK can be purchased in Deutsche Mark and its cost can be reduced to less than a quarter of the current price. ”

"With the accessories provided by our Chinese side, the price of the DKK refrigerator will be completely restored to the level before the merger of the two Germanys. ”

Hearing Wang Chuanfu's words, not only Miller's eyes became brighter and brighter, but even Sun Lei's eyes couldn't help but widen.

Good boy, I thought you were a chick. I didn't expect to dig up the corners of socialism in East Germany, you are so skilled!

Others still take real money out to buy equipment and technology, and you want to empty gloves white wolf. And looking at Fat Miller's appearance, he was obviously very interested in this proposal.

The problem is that the Trusteeship Bureau's action against the DKK is a political policy that is absolutely impossible to shake. In this way, DKK's production line moved to China, and sooner or later it was the meat buns that beat the dogs and never returned. If the Trusteeship Bureau wants to sell DKK in debt, China will be able to get DKK's joint venture assets for free - anyway, you yourself say that DKK is not worth much!

However, DKK's side is already the last straw grasped by the drowning man, as long as there is such a slight possibility, he will definitely try it.

Miller rubbed his hands together and muttered, "Director Wang, I don't know if you're interested in the technical sense of fluorine-free refrigerators?"
