Chapter 182: Smuggled Goods

After sending Huang Xing away, Liu Xiao couldn't help but be excited, the plan he made at that time seemed to be a little difficult to achieve, but now everything is developing in the established direction, as long as the network supervisor can issue such a suggestion, the soft alliance can persuade ZF to support the plan of national security products can be realized.

"This business is so worthwhile!" Liu Xiao quickly calculated in his heart, he can now take care of how much this business is, a full 40 billion, it seems that this time the network war between Estonia and Russia has made the network supervisor ruthless and wants to completely transform his own network. Liu Xiao is now more and more sure that his plan is correct, and only the domestic ZF at all levels and the market of various departments is enough to make the soft alliance rich.

Not long after Liu Xiao returned to his office, the director of the business department ran in, "Mr. Liu, the two foreigners who came in the morning are here again!"

"What's the matter?" Liu Xiao frowned.

"They want to order our products, they want a thousand sets!" The head of the business department looked at Liu Xiao, "They want us to make some discounts on the price!"

"Tell them that it's all that price, and there is no room for discounts!" Liu Xiao didn't think about it, so he said directly that he didn't have a good impression of those two people.

"Alright!" the head of the business department nodded, "Then I'll get back to them!"

Half an hour after going out, the head of the business department ran in again, as if he had won a 5 million jackpot, and shouted when he entered the door: "Mr. Liu, we have sent it, 1,000 sets, the transaction is completed, the deposit can be remitted in the afternoon, and the rest of the arrears will be paid off within a week!"

"Huh?" Liu Xiao was also a little surprised, looking at the appearance of the two people buckling the rope in the morning, it didn't seem like they had such courage, how could they order a thousand sets in a blink of an eye, this is 400 million US dollars, how much strength can their company have, and they dare to take out 400 million for safety transformation. Liu Xiao pinched his chin, could it be that he had just looked away, what is this Steko company doing?

"Mr. Liu, then I'm going to arrange the production of this batch of goods now?" The business director looked at Liu Xiao, it was the first time to make such a large amount of goods, so that he couldn't believe that it was true, and went to Liu Xiao here to verify.

"Oh!" Liu Xiao came back to his senses, "You wait, take this list too, and by the way, inform Hua Wei, let them tighten up recently!", Liu Xiao finished speaking, and picked up the purchase order given by Huang Xing just now from the desk, the product name, quantity, and price, Liu Xiao has already filled it in.

The business supervisor came over and took it, and his eyes were straight at that time, "100,000 sets?", he didn't respond for a long time, probably he couldn't count it, he didn't know how much 100,000 sets was, and when he looked down, "Ah, 40,000 yuan?", he was anxious, "Why is it so little?"

Liu Xiao smiled, "You are rich now, and you can't put four billion goods in your eyes!"

The business director shook his head, "That's not it, it's just that this price is too different from our published price!"

"The price is for outsiders to see, but this batch of goods is our own ZF procurement project, the price is secondary, the key is this market!" Liu Xiao smiled, "Don't worry, this list is very valuable!"

"Okay, I'll send the list over!" The list has been decided, and it doesn't matter what to say, but the price of these 100,000 sets and 1,000 sets is about the same in the end, which makes the business director a little unhappy.

In the evening, Liu Xiao invited Huang Xing to dinner, and by the way, he asked about the accident in Haicheng.

Huang Xingyi sighed and said: "Haicheng was originally determined to raise nearly 10 billion funds to build Haicheng into a model city for national network security, but as a result, the more things are built, the more unsafe they become, the first time is that the whole city is paralyzed, the second time is used as a guinea pig, and it is used for experiments, and the third time is that the equipment cannot withstand the load and is paralyzed." Huang Xingzhi shook his head, "More and more problems have been exposed, although it is said to provide a reference for our future safety construction, but the face of the Haicheng City Government has been completely lost, and it has become a big joke in front of other cities across the country! When I went to investigate the accident today, the faces of those people in Haicheng were very ugly!"

Liu Xiao let out an "oh", "Security is a dynamic and long-lasting thing, and Haicheng's idea of 'exchanging an investment for permanent security' is problematic in itself!"

"We have little experience in this area and we are late in research. After Huang Xing finished speaking, he suddenly looked at Liu Xiao, "I heard that when Estonia was attacked some time ago, you happened to be there, tell me, what do you feel, I will also learn from it!"

"I feel a lot!" Liu Xiao smiled, "It's just that it's hard to say now!" But I've been summarizing this matter recently, if you're not in a hurry, just wait a few more days, and I'll show you what I've summarized when the time comes!"

"That's the best!" Huang Xing laughed, "I'm just waiting for your scriptures!"

"You have purchased so many security products this time, are you going to prepare for a big deal?" asked Liu Xiao.

Huang Xing nodded, "Yes, this time the matter in Estonia is not as simple as it seems, it is far-sighted, and it is very determined, not only our network supervision department, but also some other key networks are required to complete the security transformation within three months to half a year!"

"You can rest assured about this!" Liu Xiao smiled, "The software part is ready-made, and it can be done in a day or two, only the hardware part has to be actually produced, this has to delay a little time, but it will never miss your business!"

"I've wanted to ask you for a long time, how did you get together with Hua Wei!" Huang Xing felt incredible, "I used to sweat for your soft alliance!"

"We have the basis for cooperation, Huawei has just entered the security market, we need mature technology, and we also need Huawei market share and context in the global operator market. ”

"It seems that you guys have made it big this time!" Huang Xing smacked his lips, "If those operators are willing to use your products, you will really be developed!"

"That's what we planned, Huawei has now begun to lobby domestic operators, I hope it will succeed!" Liu Xiao smiled.

"It's just that the price is too high!" Huang Xing looked at Liu Xiao and pouted, "400,000 US dollars, can scare away a lot of people! If you are willing to lower the price, it is estimated that you can win a lot of markets." ”

"That price is actually scaremongering!" Liu Xiao smiled, "In the domestic market and operators, we have another price system, otherwise I wouldn't dare to sell it to you for 40,000 yuan!"

"Why is that?" Huang Xing was puzzled, "Who are you trying to scare?"

"It's the same people who attacked the SoftAlliance yesterday!" Liu Xiao shrugged, "The attack on the SoftAlliance is just the aftermath of the Estonian incident, they are either annoyed by the failure in Estonia, or they are curious about whether the products of the SoftAlliance really have such high safety performance." The first batch to buy our products must be these people, I have to make them pay some price for attacking the soft alliance!"

"Oh, that's right!" Huang Xing nodded, "But will they buy it?" do you know who these people are?"

"I don't need to know who they are, doing business is a matter of being willing to fight!" Liu Xiao smiled, "If we dare to sell, someone will dare to buy, and to tell you the truth, we sold a thousand sets today!"

"A thousand sets!" Huang Xing quickly calculated, and then his eyes straightened, "Good boy, who is so rich, this is a big deal of 400 million US dollars." ”

"A Russian trading company!" Liu Xiao said, "I guess there are some origins, but we don't ask about this, as long as they give money, we will ship the goods." ”

"What's the name of that company?" Huang Xing hurriedly asked, seeming to be a little interested, and said, "I'll check it out when I go back!"

"Steko!" Liu Xiao said.

Huang Xing let out an "oh", "I remember!"

The two then talked about some complete aspects of the current situation and hidden problems, and after a meal of nearly three hours, they finally broke up happily, Huang Xing resigned by the way, and he had to rush back to the headquarters to report the situation here, as well as arrange to receive the products of the soft alliance.

In the next few days, the soft alliance would receive several groups of people who wanted to buy products every day, and many of them were scared back when they heard about the price and purchase restrictions, saying that they would discuss again. But there are also a few companies similar to Swift, knowing that the price is very high, and there is a minimum limit of 1,000 sets, these companies still quickly made a decision to buy the products of the soft alliance, so that the soft alliance can sell 1,000 sets of products every day.

In the past few days, the most heard by the employees of the soft alliance is the voice from the business department, "I'm really sorry, our company has limited manpower, and we can only be a big customer at present!", "You ask how can you be regarded as a big customer? As long as you buy more than 1,000 sets of products at a time, you are a big customer!", "It's not that I don't give you a discount in terms of price, but the company has regulations, and it's all this price, the unified price!".

The business executive's voice is full of confidence, and everyone doesn't need to look at it to know what kind of description he is at this time, it must be one hand on his waist and his nostrils facing the sky.

Huang Xing really did what he said, and all localities soon received a document from the Internet Supervision Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, requiring all localities to learn the lessons of Haicheng, and to purchase qualified and reliable security products when carrying out network security transformation in the future.

Perhaps this document has played a role, coupled with the tripartite efforts of SoftAlliance, Chenhan and Huawei, Haicheng City Government is the first to stand up, not only to take SoftAlliance as a model of high-tech enterprises vigorously supported by ZF in the future, but also to purchase all the network security products required by Haicheng Government in the future. Subsequently, Fengming City also announced that all security products of SoftAlliance will be used in the network construction of Fengming High-tech Development Zone.

In fact, this is not very new news, many countries in the world, in order to support the development of their own local enterprises, in ZF bulk procurement or policy, will give local enterprises a certain priority, which is almost a practice. Let's take Yinfeng, which Liu Xiao hated for a long time, for example, he is a large taxpayer in Haicheng high-tech enterprises, and he is also one of the few software companies in China that can get his hands on it, so the daily office software of Haicheng ZF civil servants is all used in the office software developed and designed by Yinfeng itself. And this time, the soft alliance finally enjoyed the benefits of this convention.

Haicheng placed an order for 10,000 sets to the soft alliance, and it was sealed that it was 5,000 sets, all of which were signed according to the price given to the network supervisor, even so, the sales of the soft alliance this week have completely exceeded the total sales of all years since its establishment, and Liu Xiao believes that as long as there are these orders, the soft alliance will soon receive a steady stream of orders from China.

The Haicheng government also seems to see the development prospects of the soft alliance, and in order to show its importance to the soft alliance, a special awarding ceremony was held this time.

This time, Liu Xiao not only did not object, but asked the company to make the ceremony more grand. So, on the day of the award, all the supervisors of the soft alliance stood under the building, waiting for the mayor to come and sign the soft alliance.

"Mr. Liu!" The director of the business department took advantage of this time to report to Liu Xiao, "I have found some problems recently, and I want to ask your opinion!"

"What's the problem?" Liu Xiao looked back at him.

"In the past few days, ZF has also begun to contact us, saying that they want to purchase our products, but the number they reported is very different from the number that our salesman learned before!"

Liu Xiao didn't understand what it meant, "What's the difference?"

"That's right, the number of ZF reports in these places greatly exceeds the demand of their network, and they can't use so many products at all!" The head of the business department looked at Liu Xiao after speaking, "I think there is a problem here!"

"Oh......" Liu Xiao also felt strange, even if it was a set of 40,000 yuan, the price was not low, what was the use of buying so much in these places, is it really too much money to spend.

"You say, will they want to sell our products abroad!" the director of the business department asked in a low voice, he really thinks so, only 40,000 yuan in China, and 400,000 US dollars to buy abroad, how big the profit is, anyone can calculate.

"You can't talk nonsense!" Liu Xiaoyi frowned, but this is indeed a big problem, "It may also be that some local state-owned enterprises in those places are purchasing on behalf of them, you first find a way to figure out what is going on, and then we will come up with a plan!"

"Okay, I know, I'll arrange to go in a while!" nodded the business executive.

"Mr. Liu, the mayor is here!" I don't know who said a word next to me, everyone hurriedly looked forward, and saw three luxury cars slowly driving towards everyone, a Rolls-Royce in the middle, and a big run in front and back.

"The mayor uses such a good car?" Liu Xiao stopped, this was definitely not the mayor's car.

But a crowd of people around had already rushed to those cars.

The car stopped, and a black man with a tiger's back came down from the front and rear cars, and now everyone stopped their feet, damn, it can't be the fat man from last time again.

Two black men went over and opened the door of the Rolls-Royce, and a person stepped down from it, dressed in a straight gentleman's suit, cut just right, and the whole person looked very temperamental.

When he saw the man's face clearly, Liu Xiao couldn't help but say, "Damn, how could it be him!", looking to the side, he saw that Shang Yue was already indignant at this time, and the roots of his teeth were clenched together.

It was none other than Sidney, the hacker aristocrat who took the lead in questioning the Soft Alliance at the Black Hat Conference.
