Chapter 109: Talking about business at the dinner table
Mr. Ma's worries are not unreasonable.
In fact, Fang Yi himself had hesitated before, but in the end, he still felt that this was a good market stepping stone, all Fang Yi did it, and he was only ready to do it this time, using some small means to open the domestic market, and then immediately return to the right track.
But the information blockade in Europe, Fang Yi felt that there was something to say.
If they are a technical blockade, then their skills are not as good as people, Fang Yi has nothing to say.
But the current situation is that after the company spent a lot of money to buy technology and equipment from Europe, the European side still concealed a large amount of equipment use control information, and even every time the equipment parameters were changed, they had to pay them information consulting fees, which is a bit unreasonable.
Fang Yi, "Can't we just ask all at once?"
"No, you can't. Ai Hou shook his head helplessly, "The technical barriers are quite different, our technicians have not even figured out the complete functional chain of the equipment in addition to the equipment function told by the other party, they just want to ask for advice, and they don't know where to start." ”
"Understood. Fang Yi nodded, "We also have such a business model in China, and the company's profit is not only based on selling products, but also on follow-up service charges." ”
Ai Hou was anxious, "Mr. Fang." ”
Fang Yi waved his hand, "I understand what you mean, they look too ugly, in this way, we don't consult their customer service staff in the manual customer service, we directly invite their technicians to come over, if you have any questions, we will ask their technicians in person." ”
"It's that easy. Ai Hou shook his head and said, "Their technicians are not so easy to invite." ”
"You've got it on me. Fang Yi thought for a while, "But I have to make it clear to you in advance, first, we can't just consult the equipment parameters and parameter control that we should know, and we must not steal their technology, and second, we must not affect or leak their business model." ”
"Done. Ai Hou agreed.
"Let's go. Fang Yi spoke: "Now, you prepare a piece of equipment for me, and then bring me two of the best technicians in the company." ”
Ai Hou: "I'll go." ”
......
In a utility room.
Ai Hou walked in with two young men mysteriously pushing the door, "Mr. Fang, the technician you want is here." ”
Fang Yi glanced up at the two of them, "I have a job here." Pointing to a piece of equipment, "Just the machine in front of me, you can adjust all the parameters that he can adjust for me, and then record it for me." ”
The two technicians glanced at each other, and the older one said: "Leader, the parameters of this machine are very accurate, as long as the adjustment is a little wrong, then the machine will be broken, and we will have to hire someone to repair it at that time." ”
Fang Yi: "If it's bad, it's bad, you should pay the tuition, and you can adjust it now." ”
The two technicians had no choice but to step forward.
One of them carefully adjusts the parameters, while the other takes detailed notes.
I didn't adjust it twice, and the gears of the machine clicked and stopped.
Fang Yi looked at the two technicians.
Both of them shook their heads helplessly, "Mr. Fang, the machine is broken." ”
Fang Yi: "Cheng, now call the manufacturer and tell them that the machine is broken, and let them come over to repair it immediately." ”
"Okay, Mr. Fang..."
The phone called, after a long conversation, finally, the equipment manufacturer decided to send technicians in the afternoon, of course, air tickets, tickets, and all the expenses for food and drink had to be reimbursed by Wuyang Group.
......
In the afternoon.
Technicians who came from Europe finally arrived at the company.
When I arrived at the company, I went straight to the utility room.
After a while, the technician diagnosed the result, "#$^*@(~......" and a lot of "#$^*@(~".
Fang Yi looked at the translator, "What did he say?"
Translation: "Mr. Fang, he said that our equipment is not broken, but we are out of tune, which caused the machine to crash, in this case, he should not be invited to China, he should be called to consult their human customer service." ”
Fang Yi: "Ask him, can he adjust it well?"
"It's already adjusted. ”
"Help me ask the other party, what should I do after the parameter control crashes. ”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Fang, he said this is a trade secret. ”
Confidential, confidential, your uncle's secret.
If you buy a device and don't tell me how to use it, it's also called a trade secret?
Fang Yi glanced at the translator, "Tell him that I'm going to invite him to dinner." ”
In a fairly famous hotel here in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
Fang Yi booked a large private room, and invited the technician from Europe to sit on the main seat, while he and Ai Hou sat left and right, in addition to the three of him, there were several people sitting at the table, all of whom were technicians in Wuyang Group.
A group of people took turns toasting, and within two laps, they drank the foreigner to the point that his tongue was big.
Several technicians are also human spirits, and under Ai Hou's instructions, they soon called the foreigner brothers, and they all quickly lifted the foreigner to the sky.
The foreigner quickly got carried away, claiming to be the big brother, and answered the questions of the younger brothers.
"Big brother, what should I do if that parameter is adjusted wrong?"
"At the back of the machine, there is a purple wire, and at the interface of the purple wire, there is a small hole, and the switch of the machine is in that small hole, as long as you use a toothpick, the machine can return to the original factory settings. ”
"Thank you, big brother, come, big brother, I respect you. ”
"Here, cheers. ”
"Big brother, how many parameters does this machine have?"
"There are eleven kinds of conventional ones in the market, and there can be hundreds of kinds of unconventional ones. ”
"Can you tell us about these eleven conventionals, big brother?"
"Eh, no, this won't work, it's a secret for our company. ”
Fang Yi and Ai Hou glanced at each other, and Ai Hou immediately took out a thick red envelope from his bag and secretly stuffed it from under the table to the technician sitting on his left.
The technician also immediately understood, ran to the foreigner with a smile, secretly stuffed the red envelope into the other party's arms, and then asked the translator to translate, "Big brother, this is a little bit of our heart brother." Several other technicians immediately nodded in agreement.
The foreigner took the red envelope, and the expression on his face was a little tangled.
Fang Yi smiled and said, "We are friends, you have come from afar, a little bit of heart, accept it!"
After the translator translated this to the other party, the foreigner danced happily with the strength of the wine.
When the control method of the eleven parameters was in hand, Fang Yi gave Ai Hou a look, got up and left.
Ai Hou hesitated for a moment, "Mr. Fang, if you leave first, I still have something I want to ask this foreigner." ”
Fang Yi looked at everyone, knowing what Ai Hou wanted to do, the opportunity was rare, he must have wanted to inquire about something more core, Fang Yi was a little unhappy in his heart, but he was afraid of many occasions, so he still saved face for Ai Hou, "Okay, but don't forget what I said before, don't go too far."
