Xu Zhi said: "This is just some speculation on my part, although there is no interest on borrowing money, but after all, it involves foreign exchange, and I hope that the government will consider the factor of exchange rate fluctuations when borrowing abroad in the future." ”

"But borrowed funds will always be foreign exchange, and currencies such as the yen, the mark, and the pound will always fluctuate, and who knows what will happen in the future?"

Xu Zhidao: "Theoretically, because the US dollar is used in the highest amount, it covers a very wide range of countries around the world, and in terms of volatility, it is much lower than other currencies, so if the mainland government borrows foreign exchange, it can give due consideration to US dollars for delivery, so that the foreign exchange risk is much smaller." ”

Director Wei nodded and said, "Thank you Mr. Xu for the reminder." ”

Obviously, he didn't take it to heart, Xu Zhi couldn't do anything about it, it's still 81 years, although Japan's exports have begun to hit many industries in the United States, but it is still far from 85 years, and at present, in the last ten years, the yen has been fluctuating in the range of 250:1, who can imagine that in a few years, it will rise to 120:1 or even 70:1 at the peak.

Although the yen loan borrowed by the mainland government has no interest, it has suffered heavy losses because of this exchange rate rise, but now Xu Zhike has no way to say this kind of thing, and no one believes it when he says it, it is enough to remind him, and if he doesn't listen to it, he can't control it.

After talking about the main things, Director Wei and Xu Zhi chatted casually for a few more words, and then got up to say goodbye and leave.

"Brother, are the guests leaving?" Xu Yaxin walked over and asked.

Xu Zhi nodded and said, "Just left." ”

"Then no one will come, I feel that you are much busier when you come to the capital than in Xiangjiang. Xu Yaxin said with a smile.

Xu Zhi nodded and said: "This is no way, involving hundreds of millions of dollars of investment, some general directions always have to be negotiated with the mainland high-level, in fact, it is only the beginning, I just have a general contact with the government on the feasibility of the entire project, and wait until later, the negotiation of specific details is called busy, but this has nothing to do with your brother and me." ”

Xu Yaxin said: "I thought the super-rich were very easy. ”

"How could it be. Xu Zhi shook his head and said: "Although some big negotiations do not require us to talk about the details, but the core issues still have to be decided by us, such a large investment plan, you can't delegate power to the people below, although we don't participate in the negotiation of many things, but the progress of the whole process must be understood." encountered some big disputes, and we had to solve them at this time.

Being a boss is not as easy as you think. ”

"Okay. Xu Yaxin said: "Then should we go to climb the Great Wall together in the afternoon?"

"Absolutely. Xu Zhi said with a smile: "I came to the capital, and I still have to play." ”

……

Just when Xu Zhi's family was about to visit the Great Wall, in an office building in the capital, many leaders of the First Machine Department were holding an emergency meeting.

"The specific information, everyone is already clear, we have been discussing for two days, and it is time to come up with an explanation. At the head of the conference table, a man about 50 years old said quite majestically.

"I think we should first look at the technology, is it the most advanced level in the world? What if we give backward technology?" said one person at the table.

"It's not so simple, these capitalists are more shrewd than the other, how can they hand over their core technology. Rao Bing, as the only person who has communicated with Xu Zhi, has a lot of right to speak, and continued: "The core technology is impossible for people to give, but we can learn, as long as their production line comes, we must recruit our people, as long as this is the opportunity to learn, not to mention that whether it is a truck or a car, even if the other party really gives you the information, can you assemble the car with the information?"

Minister Song, who was sitting in a high position, also nodded and said: "Rao Bing said this well, the automobile industry is not a small toy assembly, in addition to drawings, practical experience in all aspects is also very important, many things are not learned by hand, you can't learn just a bunch of drawings and materials."

Moreover, unlike cars, trucks belong to the means of production, without cars, our country can develop the same, but without good quality trucks, there will be big problems in the transportation of goods, and more oil will be consumed, these are foreign exchange, so although the scale of this cooperation is not comparable to the project with the public, we also have to pay the same attention. ”

In fact, at the beginning of the reform and opening up, the state did not attach importance to the development of the car industry, and the upper leaders paid more attention to the development of trucks, because cars belong to "hedonistic" products, and trucks belong to production materials, which are strategic materials and can create more value.

It was only after many investigations that it was discovered that the powerful international automobile companies were mainly producing cars, and the domestic demand for cars was getting higher and higher, so the central government decided to build a large-scale car factory.

Rao Bing said: "The other party is also willing to gradually implement localized production in China, but their company will personally participate, rather than handing it over to our domestic enterprises." ”

Minister Song said: "This question will be talked about later, but now the most important thing for us is to let this project pass, and the other party's factory is built on our land, so that we can have the opportunity to learn from the production experience and technology of the West, and we can also replicate it in Dongfeng and FAW in the future."

By the way, Rao Bing, have you done the visas issued by the U.S. Embassy to the U.S. employees of the other company?"

Rao Bing said: "It's already good, I personally urged, the first delegation of the American Mark Company will arrive in Shanghai in five days, and I will also go to Shanghai at that time." ”

Minister Song nodded and said: "Okay, we have been negotiating with Volkswagen for too long, almost 3 years, and there is still no result, and now the above is very worried that Volkswagen will give up the investment plan, although this time it is also an American company, but its boss is a Chinese in Xiangjiang, which gives us a great advantage, and strive to set the plan as soon as possible, otherwise I will be embarrassed to report in front of the big leaders." ”

"I understand that Xu Zhi's previous attitude has shown that he is very willing to cooperate, at least we don't have to worry about GM's thing happening again. Rao Bing said with a smile that the chairman of GM visited China that year, and the cooperation talks went very smoothly, but he was unexpectedly vetoed by the board of directors of GM, which also made a group of mainland leaders know for the first time that there was such a "board of directors".

"However, it is not known whether he can use another investment project as a foreign exchange balance, otherwise, it will be difficult for the project to pass. One of them spoke suddenly.

Minister Song took a puff of cigarette and said: "I will discuss this matter with Minister Lin of the Fourth Machine Department, and then test the Prime Minister's meaning, I also know a little bit about his investment in the color TV factory, the scale is very large, and it can export products worth hundreds of millions of dollars every year, I think even if the above does not agree, there will still be room for turnover." ”

Rao Bing said: "Then Minister Song, what should we do about the priority procurement issue raised by the other party?"

Minister Song thought for a while and said: "This can't be agreed casually, but you can give a rough promise first, and we have to decide the specific situation according to domestic demand. ”

"Understood, then I'll go and prepare the materials for this right away. Rao Bing nodded and said.
