Chapter 592 LNG Orders
The next day, Director Lu came to the exhibition area early to re-inspect and arrange the booth.
When it comes to design, the French have always been stingy with their time and energy, and the fairs on their doorstep are no exception, and they have made the industrial machinery show like an industrial design show, full of symbols and paints, so that they get the most attention.
Director Lu also wanted to attract more people to the Chinese booth, so even if it was temporary, he also worked hard to dress up the 200-square-meter place to make the poster and product pattern more beautiful and coordinated......
Representatives of various companies were transferred by the regiments under his command.
Fortunately, the buyers who participated in the exhibition came in one after another, and the delegates were able to escape the fate of hard work.
Director Lu prayed silently: I hope to sign twice the order today.
Yesterday's situation has been transferred to Fei Lao's desktop, and unexpectedly, Fei Lao also made instructions in time...... This alone is enough to make Director Lu feel tremendous pressure and motivation.
Customers come and go, go and come, and there are not many people who can stay in the Chinese pavilion.
As a matter of fact, knowing that China's accession to the WTO has been successful, Chinese enterprises have not won much in various international exhibitions. The real ability to compete with developed countries is a matter of private enterprises after the growth of private enterprises.
State-owned enterprises that are purely driven by politics will inevitably be blind once they face full market competition.
In the first hour of the opening session, more than 40 state-owned enterprises did not have any new intentional contracts.
Director Lu came to Huaigang's booth and deliberately laughed loudly: "Mr. Lai, the $6 million you promised." Don't forget. ”
He looked around and said, "The exhibition lasts for four days, and today is the second day." Get an order of 6 million, even if Huaigang passes, don't hand in blank rolls. ”
Lai Wenang was still quite confident in this, his eyes turned from the aisle to Director Lu, and said with a smile: "It's no problem to say that the order of 6 million US dollars is no problem, but we have such a big booth." It's not even easy to talk about business, if Director Lu asks for advertising space from Dahua, let alone a passing grade. No matter how much it is, it's possible. ”
"Talk about business in the front conference room, Dahua has the confidence to win 120 million US dollars. Your $6 million is a bit of a stretch. ”
"We're just a few square meters away. Besides, who knows if Sioux City is blowing the atmosphere. Want me to say. This is the difference between private and state-owned enterprises. When the time comes, they will ask you a sorry, what can you do with him......?
"You can rest assured. Now is different from the past, if Dahua handed in a blank paper. Minister Xu cleaned them up,......" Director Lu pouted and said, "At most, Minister Xu will come over in the afternoon, and when the time comes, you will complain to him." ”
Huaigang is also an enterprise under the Ministry of Machinery Industry, Lai Wenang smiled coveredly, and said: "Su Cheng is so good, Minister Xu is afraid that he can't clean him up for no reason." ”
"If Dahua doesn't have an order, it will definitely be criticized by name. "Naming and criticizing is not a direct punishment, but it is definitely not something that any company is willing to bear.
"How can it be without an order, they already got an order yesterday. The representative in front of him shouted loudly, there are not one or two people who are not used to looking at private enterprises, but they are not all like Gao Gang and Lai Wenang.
Director Lu knew their psychology and deliberately stimulated him: "If each of you can get an order, won't Dahua also be out of the crowd? So, no matter what, the order is the last word, everyone cheers. ”
Seeing that a merchant was coming, Director Lu clapped his hands and went to the billboard next to him.
This time, the merchant is from South Africa, and he is a manufacturer of household appliances, but he came cheaply and quickly hooked up with Gao Gang.
Since it was the second day, all the necessary inspections had been done, and the two companies quickly entered into substantive negotiations.
South African businessmen even threw out a three-year quantity of 10,000 tons. Although 10,000 tons is not an eye-catching number in terms of domestic steel production, 10,000 tons is a bubbling nose when it is difficult to earn foreign exchange through exports.
Gao Gang specially called Director Lu over, pulled the merchants and translators, and went to the public conference room to negotiate the contract.
When Director Lu heard that it was a contract of more than 3 million US dollars, he rushed out without hesitation. There are also a few representatives of enterprises who have not opened for a long time, who are idle and bored, and also hand over the booth to the staff of the pavilion and run to see the excitement by themselves.
Lai Wenang thought about it and followed.
Everyone is making steel, Shougang's output is larger, and the technology is a little better, but what if this African uncle just likes pure cheapness?
In Lai Wenang's eyes, since South Africa has a non-word, then steel may be used in places as poor as North Africa, and what qualifications are there to pick and choose.
The cost of more than 300 US dollars of alloy steel has been pressed to nothing, and it is all supported by export tax rebates and foreign exchange value. The South African businessman was quite satisfied, and the contract soon entered the substantive negotiation stage, and began to involve the details.
Director Lu listened to the translation, Le's eyebrows were not eyebrows, and his eyes were not eyes, and he felt a little relieved: "If each company can have an order of several millions, it will not be so difficult to get an order of one or two hundred million dollars." ”
As for profits, whether it is him or Gao Gang, they can't take care of it at this time.
After a while, the South African businessman decided to sign a contract, and Gao Gang took the first one, blinking and saying in Chinese: "Director Lu, at our level, it's okay." ”
"Awesome. Director Lu gave a thumbs up cooperatively: "Keep up the good work, have a good drink at night." ”
Gao Gang was in a good mood and said with a smile: "You must have a good drink, I think that after the four-day exhibition, Shougang can get an order of 10 million." ”
"Is this Manager Gao's military order?" Director Lu seized the opportunity and wanted an order.
Gao Gang laughed: "We don't dare to make a military order, but in this state, we can still win 10 million US dollars." ”
"I'm relieved when Manager Gao says that......" Director Lu was saying when he saw Shen Feng running over in a hurry, looking around for someone.
Other representatives of the company who were watching the excitement saw it and beckoned him over.
Director Lu saw that his tie was messed up, and he couldn't help frowning: "Why are you panicking, what should people do when they see it?"
The exhibition hall was very large, Shen Feng ran out of breath, pointed his hand back, and said intermittently: "Su Dong...... Find you. ”
"Huh?"
"I said I want to sign a contract, please endorse it. Shen Feng gasped for breath again, and his breath was slightly more even.
Gao Gang coughed vigorously, and said unhappily: "Even if Dahua Industrial wants to sign a contract, there is no need for this, wait a minute, we will go back with Director Lu after we finish signing." ”
Shen Feng wanted to speak and stopped, but he didn't leave.
Director Lu looked at him and couldn't help asking, "What contract and how much?"
"LNG ships, that is, LNG carriers, there is a Finnish shipping company that wants to order one, and the contract amount is ...... The contract amount, I heard them say, seems to be 180 million dollars. When Shen Feng said the specific number, his voice suddenly became quieter.
The figure of 180 million is really a bit beyond imagination.
In fact, the market price of newly built LNG ships is generally above $180 million. For the sake of transportation economy, it is impossible to build an LNG ship too small, the technology does not allow it to be built too large, and the number of companies that can build it is limited, and the price of such a highly profitable ship has always been relatively stable.
That is, a disruptor like Dahua Industrial can reduce the cost of new construction of ships to 180 million US dollars.
However, in the eyes of those who have just witnessed the 3 million contract, $180 million is more like a fantasy.
"Is it an intentional contract? Director Lu asked a little bit about gains and losses. He did not see an intent-to-act contract for an LNG ship yesterday.
Shen Feng shook his head and said a little fanatically: "The other party is ready to sign the contract directly." It is said that it has been specifically inspected yesterday, and it seems that there are some standards for LNG ships......"
Of course, the most important reason is the offer during the fair. In terms of new ships, even a 2% discount is extremely amazing, and companies that have newly purchased new ships cannot ignore the exhibition factor.
On the other hand, there are only a few companies in the world that can produce LNG ships, and Dahua Shipbuilding, which has been among them, is also a brand, saving a lot of trouble.
Director Lu pulled up his hair and asked, "Are you really going to sign it?"
"I'm going to sign it now, that's why I'm calling you back. ”
"Good, good...... I'll go back immediately. Director Lu didn't hesitate any longer, and he loosened his tie and was about to leave.
Gao Gang's ghost envoy grabbed him and asked, "Director Lu, we still have a contract here." ”
"Your words...... The contract of 3 million, you sign it first, and I will come and sign it later. After Director Lu finished speaking, he pulled out his legs and ran.
Gao Gang was angry in an instant.
