A farce ended in disgrace. The Japanese right wing is still hyping up the threat from China in the newspapers, but the cabinet no longer cares about their opinions. After harvesting the wealth of Southeast Asian countries, Soros has turned his attention to Japan and South Korea. Since there were a large number of bubbles in Japan's economy and the financial turmoil was in jeopardy, where was there still energy to consider the loss of technology, and financial stability was the top priority of the cabinet.

As Niwano Shinichi told Uchida, Japan's Ministry of International Trade and Industry took the lead in organizing a delegation to China to attract investment, hoping that Chinese companies would come to Japan to merge with bankrupt companies, and promised that all the original technology of these companies would be transferred to the acquirer along with the company. The Chinese government has given the Japanese delegation a very high courtesy, but when it comes to the issue of investment, the Chinese side begins to emphasize the objective difficulties, saying that it is also suffering from the financial crisis and really cannot come up with foreign exchange to acquire these enterprises - of course, if the transfer price of these enterprises can be lower, the Chinese side may be able to mobilize some powerful private enterprises to try.

In the end, Akima Kaisha was acquired by four Chinese companies for 15 billion yen. All four companies are private enterprises in Haidong Province, led by Nguyen Phuc Gen's Quanfu Machinery Company. Walking into the production workshop of the Autumn Club with the receiving personnel, and seeing the rows of beautiful advanced machine tools, Ruan Fugen couldn't help laughing, but after only laughing for a while, big tears flowed out of his eyes.

"Brother-in-law, why are you crying?"

Brother-in-law Wang Ruidong was shocked and asked while holding Ruan Fugen.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just happy!" Ruan Phuc Gen said with a smile as he wiped his tears with his sleeve. As he said that, his voice was choked, letting people know that he was not just happy, but full of mixed feelings.

"Back then, when Mr. Ruan took us to do the second-class pressure vessels that the heavy equipment office subcontracted to us, we really couldn't imagine the day when we could buy Japanese companies in. Liang Chen, director of the company's operations department, seemed to be able to understand Ruan Fugen's feelings, he stood beside Ruan Fugen and said softly, his heart was also full of emotion.

"I have believed from the beginning that our Quanfu Company can become the world's first, you think, what kind of person is my brother-in-law!" Wang Ruidong obviously didn't have so much sentimentality, he straightened his chest, crossed his waist, scanned everything in the workshop, and announced loudly.

Ruan Fugen kicked Wang Ruidong angrily and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about, and you are not afraid of people's jokes? How many times have I told you, without the general manager of the equipment company, how can we have Quanfu Company today? Your brother-in-law is a farmer, even if he learns to drive a machine tool, he is still a farmer. Our Quanfu company has today's achievements, all of which were taught by Mr. Feng. ”

Hearing Ruan Fugen talk about Feng Xiaochen, Wang Ruidong's figure dropped at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. He said with a smiling face: "Brother-in-law, you are right, even this time we were able to spend so much money to buy the Autumn Club, thanks to Mr. Feng for the little devil." However, brother-in-law, you are also very remarkable, we Haidong do so many chemical machinery, and in the end, our Quanfu company is the strongest, doesn't this explain the problem?"

was interrupted by Wang Ruidong, and Ruan Fugen's emotion was reduced a little. He wiped away the tears on his face, then pointed to the equipment in the workshop, and said to Wang Ruidong and Liang Chen: "Ruidong, Chenzi, you two are staying in Japan these days, and you are responsible for dismantling all these equipment and transporting it back to our Hoi An." How did the equipment go in Japan, and how did it go when it was shipped back to Hoi An. There is a set of workshop management in Little Japan, and since we have bought their factory, we have to learn all the things that should be learned, understand?"

"Understood, brother-in-law, just look at it!" Wang Ruidong said with a grin.

The Chinese companies that bought the Japanese companies adopted the same strategy as Quanfuku, which was to dismantle the equipment from the Japanese factories and ship it back to China to resume production. It makes sense for everyone to do this, that is, because Japan's labor cost is more than 10 times higher than China's, and the same product produced in Japan completely loses its price advantage.

The research institutes of various Japanese companies were also taken over and relocated to China. However, the Chinese side promised to keep all the original Japanese engineers and technicians, provided that they had to go to China to work. Patented technology is dead, and the know-how of many enterprises is in the minds of engineers and technicians, and only by receiving these technicians can we truly grasp the essence of Japanese technology and shorten the time for China to digest and absorb these technologies. Feng Xiaochen is well aware of this, and has already considered this plan when planning to acquire those Japanese companies.

A considerable number of Japanese engineers and technicians accepted the conditions to work in China. This is not because they have a deep affection for old companies, but because in recent years, Japan's manufacturing industry has been shrinking, and the unemployment of engineers and technicians is very serious. If they don't want to go to China, then they can only change careers to other occupations, and the most likely of them is to go to the service industry to work as ordinary waiters, serving tea and pouring water for people, which is not a job that these skilled nerds can accept?

Uchida had received information from many of his peers in the industry that he would be working in China, and he knew what kind of threat these people would pose to Japan's own industry if they were poached to China, but he was powerless to do so. Pondani Manufacturing itself is also in a bad business situation, and the company's employees are at risk of layoffs, so where can Uchida find a way to accommodate those poor colleagues?

"Mr. Feng, I really convince you. The Asian financial crisis, others see the word crisis, but you see the word machine, to be able to seize this opportunity and get back so many good things from overseas, this vision, let me really admire the old Wang. ”

In the office of the Equipment Industry Company, Wang Weilong, deputy director of the Luoqiu Metallurgical Machinery Factory, who made a special trip to visit, gave a thumbs up and sincerely expressed his admiration to Feng Xiaochen.

Feng Xiaochen personally poured a cup of tea for Wang Weilong, then sat on the sofa next to Wang Weilong, and said with a smile: "Old Wang, when did you learn to compliment people? ”

Wang Weilong Zhengse said: "This is indeed a kind of vision. If you think about it, it has always been the Japanese who have come to merge our Chinese enterprises, when will it be our turn to merge with the Japanese enterprises? But you, Mr. Feng, were able to seize the opportunity to promote this big merger and acquisition. Speaking of which, I have to complain, such a good thing, why is it cheaper for those private enterprises, and we state-owned factories can also take advantage of it. ”

Feng Xiaochen said: "Lao Wang, you really can't blame me for this. During the financial crisis, the state asked enterprises to reduce their spending, and state-owned enterprises must take the lead. If state-owned enterprises are allowed to carry out mergers and acquisitions overseas, the state will not be able to rein in its mouth. Let private enterprises go to buy, and the funds are raised by themselves, and the state has no burden. ”

"This is not justified. Wang Weilong said dissatisfiedly, "We can also find ways to find extra-budgetary funds that will not increase pressure on the country. ”

Feng Xiaochen smiled: "If you don't accept this reason, then there is another reason. That is, letting private enterprises acquire them will not irritate the sensitive nerves of the Japanese government, and at the same time, it will also be for the United States and Europe. Our country is now in the process of negotiations on joining the WTO, and among the conditions put forward by others is a clause calling for the diversification of our economy. If we organize a group of state-owned enterprises to buy bankrupt Japanese enterprises, it will inevitably make people say that we are state-led, not a market economy. And let private enterprises collect it, it looks much better. ”

"It's really special!" Wang Weilong said violently, "What system our country adopts, it depends on the faces of foreigners, can they control it?"

Feng Xiaochen said: "The WTO was started by others, and if we want to join, we have to follow other people's standards, otherwise they can exclude you." Now our economy is still very weak, and we can't twist our elbows around our thighs, so we can only endure it. ”

Wang Weilong nodded helplessly and said, "Since you, General Manager Feng, have said so, then we can only endure it." You say, our country is begging people to enter this TO, what is the benefit? I just read all kinds of propaganda in the newspapers, and I don't know whether it is true or not. ”

Feng Xiaochen said: "Joining TO is definitely beneficial to us, at least, the United States can't use the issue of most-favored-nation status to card us every year." The competitiveness of the clothing, shoes and hats produced in those coastal development zones has been greatly affected because of tariffs. If we join the TO, the import tariffs of various countries will be greatly reduced, which is definitely a blessing for our labor-intensive industries. ”

"It's a blessing for them, and it's a danger for us equipment companies. Wang Weilong said, "At that time, our import tariffs will also be reduced, and it will be easier for foreign large-scale equipment to be sold." For companies like Luoye, the technology cannot be compared with other Western companies, and there is no tariff protection, which is waiting for the fate of being slaughtered by others. ”

Hearing Wang Weilong's remarks, Feng Xiaochen's face became solemn, and he said: "On the issue of the equipment manufacturing industry, the state also took into account when entering the WTO accession talks, and will strive to provide us with the longest possible protection period. But no matter how long the protection period is, it is limited, and we must grow up before the end of the protection period, so that we can be invincible. ”
