Chapter 593: Overwhelmed

"What's going on?" said the South African uncle's face was full of strangeness

"It's nothing, well, let's wait a minute, Director Lu will be back soon. "Gao Gang can't say that our order is too small and is underestimated, so we can only continue to laugh. Although Gao Gang was curious about Dahua's LNG ship order, he would not lose his contract, so he obediently stayed in the conference room, not daring to be distracted.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, Director Lu never came back, and the South African businessman began to get impatient and asked, "How long will it take......?"

The signing of the pavilion form is fast and convenient, if necessary, a company can often reach dozens or even hundreds of transactions in just four days of exhibition, and in order to make this convenience and speed not become a loophole, the official endorsement is indispensable, usually the joint guarantee of the companies participating in the pavilion, and the endorsement of the national bank or the national trading company can also be.

In the case of the Chinese pavilion, without the signature of Director Lu, or the signature and seal of the subordinates directly assigned by Director Lu, the transaction between Shougang and the South African company could not be successfully concluded.

Gao Gang didn't make a deal yesterday, but he didn't think it was a big deal to wait for a quarter of an hour, but since the South African uncle proposed it, he also asked Shen Fengdao: "When will Director Lu come back?" We have reached the stage of signing the contract, Dahua Industrial is estimated to be still negotiating, say whatever you say, you have to sign, deceive people first, and we can't sign a contract if we make trouble......

After a hard time, Gao Gang said in an ordered tone: "Please Director Lu come over first and sign our contract, and then he can talk with Dahua Industrial for as long as he wants." ”

"This ......" Shen Feng looked at the contract spread on the table, nodded and said, "I'll go see it right away." ”

"Please ask Director Lu to come over quickly. Gao Gang lowered his voice and said, "If this contract is yellow, it will be counted as your Science and Industry Commission." ”

"Ah...... I'm going to go back quickly. Shen Feng took off his suit and threw it on the chair and ran away.

Gao Gang smiled at the South African businessman and said, "Please wait a little longer. ”

"So, just wait another 10 minutes, I can't wait any longer, I made an appointment with another company to meet at 10 o'clock. South African businessman Masase said.

"Oh, is it 10 o'clock? and ......" Gao Gang naturally raised his wrist to see how long it was 10 o'clock. However, on the newly bought plum watch, it clearly shows 10:20.

The South African businessman apparently knew the time, and sat there calmly, apparently not thinking that the deadline for 10 o'clock was 10 o'clock.

Perhaps, 30 minutes in the evening is normal? Gao Gang fell into deep philosophical thought......

Until......

Shen Feng held the seal in his hand, rushed into the conference room in a hurry, and shouted: "It's here." ”

Gao Gang scolded with a smile: "What are you doing in such a hurry? Director Lu is here?"

Shen Feng was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Director Lu is busy signing, I brought the seal, and it is the same for me to sign and seal on my behalf." ”

"This guy. Gao Gang's heart was full of anger, like any official who felt looked down upon.

Shen Feng secretly smiled bitterly twice and said, "Let's sign the contract first, it's important to sign the contract." ”

"Let's sign a contract first. Gao Gang had to compromise, but he couldn't help but sarcastically: "Director Lu doesn't look down on our small business, people, that's it." I just want to know, he is so sure that the contract of the LNG ship can be signed, and he would rather accompany people to run the hall than send orders to the door?"

"Actually......"

"Actually, what?" said Gao Gang's stern tone.

"In fact, Director Lu has been endorsing the contract, so he can't leave. ”

"What does that mean?"

"That's it...... Dahua got a lot of contracts at once, and Director Lu couldn't keep busy. Shen Feng said in a low voice and said, "Manager Gao, I brought the seal here, let's sign the contract here." ”

Gao Gang raised his eyes and said, "What's the matter?" Are you in a hurry to return the seal?"

Shen Feng smiled silently.

Gao Gang said "Huh" and said, "You are really in a hurry to return the seal." ”

"Let's sign the contract here. Shen Feng then asked the translator to speak to the South African businessman.

The details and contracts were finalized, and with the annex and seal of the pavilion, the contract between Shougang and the South African company was successfully completed.

"$3 million in hand. Gao Gang silently calculated the transportation cost, felt that there was no loss, and his face couldn't help showing satisfaction.

His satisfaction didn't last a few seconds, though.

Because Shen Feng picked up the seal again and ran out like a fly.

"Inexplicable!" Gao Gang thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and see it too." ”

"Go see, go see. In order to pretend to be a united front, Lai Wenang and others felt as if they had been scratched by fifty mice.

Dahua Industrial's booth was full of merchants from all over the world.

From LNG carriers and chemical systems to carbon fiber, these high-tech products are in endless demand in the international market, and the reason why they cannot be sold in large quantities is not because people don't want them, but because their production is so low that manufacturers have to raise prices to curb demand.

This is also the norm for high-grade industrial equipment. Whether it is the United States, Germany and France, any large-scale equipment manufacturing enterprise, after developing a product, even if it knows that the product is selling well, it is impossible to explode production capacity like civil electrical appliances, because the price of equipment for manufacturing advanced industrial equipment is even more expensive. In addition, most of the demanders of high-end industrial equipment are large-scale enterprises that are budget-conscious, and they may be able to upgrade quickly, but they are definitely cautious in their selection.

Whether for the purpose of extending the life of the product or for the purpose of increasing profits, the production of advanced industrial equipment is deliberately limited.

In the era of the planned economy, China used administrative orders and factory grades to restrict, while in the era of the market economy, the state used prices to restrict.

Once an industrial equipment company breaks through this limit, then the demand may be released instantly.

Of course, the opportunity to break through the limit must be grasped so that we can make full use of the demand that bursts in the moment.

The four-day International Equipment Exhibition has always been an excellent channel for industrial manufacturers to quickly recover their cash. For example, Siemens, General Motors, and other veteran Fortune 500 companies, the cash they circle at an equipment exhibition often exceeds the listing income of a company.

Gao Gang and the others returned to the booth and were dumbfounded.

"It really happened. "Lai Wenang had the idea of coming to a nightmare.

"How many contracts have you signed?" Gao Gang came to the Chinese booth opposite and asked a familiar representative in a low voice.

The latter was just drinking tea as if watching a play, and when he heard the words, he counted them and said, "At least 10 contracts." ”

"10 contracts, real contracts, don't you prepare in advance?"

"Even if it is prepared in advance, then there must be 10 contracts, right?" The other party blinked, and did not seem to enter a state of envy, jealousy and hatred, but asked Gao Gang rhetorically: "Do you know what the contract amount is?"

Gao Gang said impatiently: "How do I know." ”

"That's over $400 million. ”

"That's more than $400 million!" Gao Gang read again, then again.

"Minister Xu!" At about the same time, the comrade of the Minister of Machinery Industry, who was strutting forward, came to the exhibition area.

Although he is only one level higher than Director Lu, in terms of diplomacy, Minister Xu can already enjoy the full treatment of foreign guests, not to mention the guards by his side, and there are French policemen in police uniforms in front of him to help open the way, full of momentum.

Director Lu also stopped his busy checking and signing work and waved the contract at hand.

"I heard the mission is complete?" said Minister Xu was full of excitement.

"The total amount is 470 million US dollars. Director Lu couldn't help but laugh.

"It's all foreign exchange?" said Minister Xu, who was not in charge of the exhibition, so he cared more about the actual profits.

Director Lu nodded and smiled again: "It's a pity that the Ministry of Machinery Industry can not get much." ”

"Well, these guys, really, how many are there?" The newly formed Ministry of Machinery Industry is in urgent need of foreign exchange, after all, the foreign exchange that can be obtained directly from the split Ministry of Mechanical and Electrical and the State Council is certainly not enough. On the contrary, no matter which factory is updated with equipment, foreign exchange is almost always needed.

The income of more than 400 million US dollars is more than 400 million US dollars of foreign exchange for Minister Xu, and he does not care about profits, especially RMB profits.

Director Lu guessed his thoughts, and it was precisely because of this that he felt funny, and deliberately delayed it before saying: "The Ministry of Machinery Industry can get 10 million." ”

"How much?"

"Dahua sold two LNG ships for $370 million. Director Lu made a helpless expression and said: "Dahua Industry has signed 10 contracts in a row, and several more contracts are being negotiated, and there is not much progress on the part of the Ministry of Machinery Industry." ”

Minister Xu opened his mouth, extremely disappointed.

Dahua Industrial has long had the power to settle freely, and this foreign exchange has no share according to the rules.

"I have other contracts to sign...... Director Lu doesn't want to accompany the disappointed man.

"Where's Sioux City?" said Minister Xu, looking left and right.

"He went with people to procure, supposedly to prepare for the oil fields in Azerbaijan. Well...... As far as I think, I'm afraid they're going to buy a lot of money, at least a few hundred million dollars. ”

"For an oil field that I don't know when it will be produced?" Minister Xu pursed his lips and suddenly asked: "This time it came out in the name of the pavilion, and the money also came to the pavilion's account first?"

Director Lu frowned: "We can't touch this money." ”

"Don't move. Minister Xu said insincerely: "I just think, since they are all purchasing equipment, why not give priority to the purchase of domestic equipment......

"The oil company will provide the necessary equipment. Lin Yonggui stood up with a smile.

"The factories under the Ministry of Machinery Industry also have a lot of good equipment, besides, don't you need to use steel or anything to build an oilfield?" Minister Xu said, his thinking was also broad, and he said with a smile: "It is not necessarily the equipment to be used in the Azerbaijan oilfield, and the oilfield does not seem to have any movement." ”

Lin Yonggui said: "Minister Xu, Azerbaijan's oil fields are key projects......"

"I know, I know. Minister Xu smiled disapprovingly: "The oil fields being explored cannot be said to be key projects, I think, we can try to cooperate in all aspects." In this way, I will write a report to Fei Lao, and when the exhibition is over, we will discuss it again. ”

As a newly established ministry, Minister Xu has not yet received the full support promised by the State Council, so there is a good chance that he will agree to find resources on his own.
