After looking for a long time, Zhou Jingming finally found the contact information left by Koizumi Ichiro in the study, but fortunately it was still kept, otherwise, Zhou Jingming would have lost Qiao Liang, who was connected with Mazda.

The next morning, estimating that Ichiro Koizumi had already gone to work, Zhou Jingming dialed the phone he left for him, and after the phone rang a few times, Zhou Jingming heard Ichiro Koizumi's voice.

"Koizumi-kun, do you remember me? I'm Zhou Jingming of China, and we had several exchanges at the last automotive technology exchange meeting held in China. After the phone was connected, Zhou Jingming said immediately.

"It turned out to be Zhou Jun! I haven't been in touch for a long time, I almost forgot. As soon as Zhou Jingming said this, Koizumi Ichiro also quickly remembered the situation at that time, "Zhou Jun called this time, is there anything you want to say?"

"That's right, Koizumi-kun, I didn't express to you last time that I want to exchange your company's rotary engine technology with in-cylinder direct injection technology, but at present, the in-cylinder direct injection technology has become mature, and my own engine factory has also completed the development of in-cylinder direct injection engines, so I would like to ask Koizumi-kun, about the technology exchange, can we continue to talk?"

"Direct injection technology in the cylinder. Koizumi Ichiro on the other end of the phone fell into thought, Bosch was the first to develop the direct injection engine, the whole world automobile industry is aware, and the mainstream car manufacturers in Europe, without exception, have all purchased this technology, but in Asia, there is no movement, Toyota and Honda, these companies, there is no news that they want to buy the technology of direct injection.

Competitors are still like this, whether Mazda has such an idea on its side, Koizumi Ichiro is really hard to say.

"That's Zhou Jun, I'll help you ask the company's senior management what they mean, and then give you an answer, do you think it's okay?" Although Koizumi Ichiro is the person in charge of the R&D project of a new generation of rotary engines, this kind of technology exchange still requires the nod of the company's upper management.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Koizumi-kun. Zhou Jingming hurriedly said gratefully.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Jingming stayed by the phone, quietly waiting for Koizumi Ichiro's reply. About ten minutes later, Zhou Jingming received a call back from Ichiro Koizumi.

"The company agreed to negotiate with Zhou Jun on this matter, but I still have to trouble Zhou Jun to come to our daily B. Koizumi Ichiro's tone sounded a little surprised, because when he reported the matter to the company's supervisor, the company directly agreed to negotiate with Zhou Jingming, which really surprised Koizumi Ichiro.

"Yes, yes, if I can, I'll be there tomorrow. Zhou Jingming hurriedly replied. In itself, he was anxious to obtain the technology of the rotary engine, so it was only natural that he would fly to the island country to negotiate.

"Okay, I'll arrange the negotiations, and Zhou Jun doesn't have to rush to buy tickets, I'll confirm with you after I arrange all this. ”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Jingming's mood also became relaxed, since Mazda is willing to give him the opportunity to negotiate, then Zhou Jingming still has a good chance of winning this cooperation.

Negotiations with Mazda were set for five days later, considering that there is still plenty of time, Zhou Jingming took advantage of this time to hold a kick-off meeting for the new car development project, and assigned the corresponding development tasks to specific members, and the last development of the Phoenix brand car, the body design is still in charge of Su Wangting, and the gearbox is developed by the research team of the gearbox factory.

As for the engine, it will not be confirmed until Zhou Jingming gets the technology of the rotary engine. For the design of this car, Zhou Jingming hopes to be able to complete all the development and successfully sell it before June next year.

Time is tight and the task is heavy, and Zhou Jingming has to seize all the time to promote the new car development project.

After arranging domestic affairs, Zhou Jingming took a flight to the island country, and arrived in Hiroshima, the headquarters of Mazda Motor Company, in the afternoon of the same day, the day before the formal negotiations.

This island city, which was once hit by atomic bombs, has been washed away from the traces of war after decades of development, although the scale of the city is far from being comparable to Shencheng, but it has the city's unique tranquility and tranquility, and it can be seen that the pace of life here is very slow.

For the island country, Zhou Jingming can't talk about how much he likes, stubborn in history, refuses to admit it, and dies without repentance, but in industrial manufacturing, it has a persistence that ordinary people can hardly match, and the island country has more than 100 years of industrial development foundation, and the industrial level is the undisputed leader in the whole Asia, and China still has a long way to go compared with him.

As a world-famous car manufacturer, Mazda ranks fourth in the island country after Toyota, Honda and Nissan, and its most famous model is the RX8 sports car with a rotary engine.

Of course, in Zhou Jingming's view, Mazda's Ma Liu and Atez launched in the later period are also two particularly good-looking cars.

After getting off the plane, Zhou Jingming saw Ichiro Koizumi who came to pick him up at the airport, "Trouble Koizumi-kun to pick me up." Zhou Jingming stepped forward and said gratefully.

This time, he was able to successfully negotiate with Mazda, and Koizumi Ichiro played a very important role in it.

"This is as it should be, Zhou Jun should be the first time to come to our country. Koizumi asked with a smile.

"It was the first time, and it wasn't quite what I had imagined. Zhou Jingming looked out of the car window and said leisurely.

"In fact, many Chinese have misunderstandings about us, I don't mean that there is a misunderstanding of our government, our government does have many unsatisfactory places, but most of our people here are still very friendly, if Zhou Jun is here for a long time, he will naturally find this." ”

The two of them walked and chatted along the way, and soon arrived at the hotel where Zhou Jingming stayed this time.

"Zhou Jun, the negotiation is tomorrow morning, I will have someone pick you up at that time, please arrive on time. After arranging Zhou Jingming's accommodation, Koizumi Ichiro said with a smile.

The next day, after breakfast, Zhou Jingming's negotiations with Mazda officially began.

As Su Wangting said, Mazda's negotiators directly rejected Zhou Jingming's proposal to use in-cylinder direct injection technology to replace rotary engine technology, because in their opinion, the two technologies are not equal at all.

However, Zhou Jingming did not expect the first negotiation to be successful, this contact made him have a general understanding of Mazda's price code, and the two sides continued to negotiate the exchange of the two technologies in the next two days.

With the joint efforts of Zhou Jingming and Koizumi Ichiro, Zhou Jingming finally reached a consensus with Mazda on the technical exchange of rotary engines on the fourth day of negotiations, and signed a formal cooperation agreement.
