Chapter 0152 Memorandum of Understanding

Now that they have successfully occupied the advantage of negotiations, Zhou Jingming and the others, accompanied by Lewandowski and Mark, came to the conference room to prepare for further negotiations on the cooperation of the engine injection system.

Because this time Zhou Jingming wants to cooperate for the purpose of the technical level, as for the commercial level, at present, Zhou Jingming does not want to involve too much, and the cooperation at the commercial level is not something they can call the shots, even if it is the mechanical engineering department, I am afraid that they have to report to the leaders above.

After all, the domestic investment environment in the 80s could not be compared with that of the 21st century, especially when it comes to the automotive field, and it is even more cautious, and the approval process for foreign capital to enter the domestic market is too complicated.

Of course, Lewandowski also knows that if Bosch really wants to engage in a joint venture project like Volkswagen, it is estimated that Bosch's shareholders will not agree to it at present.

The reason why we are so eager to reach cooperation with China is to lay the foundation for future business cooperation with China.

It is precisely because they are well aware of this that Lewandowski and Mark do not dare to take the risk of letting the mainland company seize the opportunity, once the Chinese market becomes dependent on the technology of the mainland company, it will be really too difficult for Bosch to catch up with the latter at that time, and they have "offended" Lee Mingzhe today, once Lee Mingzhe returns to China and tells the story out, causing the anger of the Chinese high-level, then Bosch may really have no chance at all.

No one dares to bet on the future interests of the company.

Businessmen, it's okay to suffer a little loss in the moment, and you can earn it back in the future.

Since it is only technical cooperation, it is much simpler to talk about, and in the distribution of interests, Lewandowski has also made the greatest concessions, one is to apologize to Li Mingzhe, and the other is to show goodwill.

Bosch agreed to bring together the company's best talents, work with Zhou Jingming to develop a new engine injection system, and provide Zhou Jingming and his family with full technical support.

Of course, the engine injection system is only an introduction to the cooperation with Bosch, and once this gap is opened, there will be more technical cooperation in the future.

In return, Bosch demanded a commitment that Bosch would have the right to set up factories in China as a priority and receive corresponding policy support once the domestic conditions were liberalized.

In terms of profit distribution alone, Zhou Jingming feels that such a cooperation is really worth it, because even without their commitment, Bosch's business scope in China in the future will be very extensive, and the competitiveness of his rival mainland company in China is completely inferior to Bosch......

Therefore, for China, this is a cooperation that is sure to win and not lose.

However, because Zhou Jingming and others were not authorized by the Ministry of Machinery and the Economic Commission, they could not sign any formal agreement during this negotiation, but could only reach a consensus in the form of a memorandum of understanding.

In this way, the "contradictions" between the two sides seem to be resolved.

After all the talks, Zhou Jingming, Li Mingzhe and others declined the invitation of Levan to hold a banquet and hospitality, but chose to go back to the hotel first to prepare the documents of the memorandum of understanding, so that they could formally sign the memorandum of understanding with Bosch tomorrow.

After coming out of the Bosch headquarters building, the four people who had endured it for a long time finally got the opportunity to be released, and they just stood in front of the steps of the building and laughed.

"Director Li, what you just played is so realistic!" Zhou Jingming said with a smile.

"If I hadn't known that Director Li was pretending, I would have thought that Director Li was really angry, and I was almost startled, and my eyes were so wide that I was divine!" Luo Yuzhong also laughed on the side.

"I was so nervous just now, I've never bluffed people like this in my life, you don't know how fast my heart is beating. Li Mingzhe couldn't help but complain, doing such a thing in his identity, thinking about it, I still feel quite exciting.

"Although I am a little sorry for Bosch for this, I think it is worthwhile to be able to introduce advanced engine technology to China. Smiling, Zhou Jingming suddenly sighed.

"That's right, if that gets more cutting-edge technology, I don't mind pretending to be crazy and stupid every time. Luo Yuzhong also sighed.

Bosch's engine injection technology has always been at the forefront of the world, which Luo Yuzhong knows, although Zhou Jingming came up with this trick is a bit absurd, but it is definitely worth it to get comprehensive technical support from Bosch.

If the Volkswagen engine cooperation project can also be discussed, under the strong combination, even if the technology involved in it can not be digested and absorbed, the domestic engine level will also jump to a new level, and then count the introduction of Santana models, which is really a good thing for the domestic automobile industry.

"Director Li, there is something I have to trouble you. Zhou Jingming stopped smiling, and his face also returned to a serious expression, "The engine cooperation project and sales rights with Volkswagen must be obtained from the ministry after you return to China, so that the technical cooperation with Bosch will maximize its value." ”

In a sense, the cooperation with Bosch on the engine injection system is to jointly develop the VR6 engine service with Volkswagen, and it would be the best thing if it could get technical support from Volkswagen and Bosch.

Of course, even if it is not possible to negotiate with Volkswagen's engine cooperation, with Bosch's injection system technical support, the domestic engine level will still be greatly improved, but it is better to bloom more than to stand alone.

"You can rest assured about this matter, this time when I return to China, I will submit the materials you wrote to the ministry, no matter how much relationship I use, I will settle these two things. Lee Ming-che also said that he was duty-bound in this matter.

After returning to the hotel, Zhou Jingming had a simple lunch, and then began to draw up the relevant terms of the memorandum of understanding this time.

A memorandum of understanding is different from a formal agreement in that it has no legal effect and is merely used as a supplement to the formal signing of the agreement.

However, Zhou Jingming is not worried that Bosch will not agree with this memorandum of understanding, now their willingness to cooperate is much stronger than their own, and once SAIC Volkswagen is established, the domestic automobile market will grow at a blowout level, Bosch will not be stupid enough to give up this opportunity.

After drawing up the terms of the memorandum, Zhou Jingming sent the written terms to Li Mingzhe, after all, Li Mingzhe signed an unknown number of agreements on behalf of the Ministry of Mechanics, and he must be more familiar with the terms than himself.

"No problem, in the afternoon, we will go to Bosch again, and if they have no opinion, we will just sign it tomorrow according to what is written on it." Lee Ming-che put down the document in his hand and said with a smile.
