Chapter 35: Plans Don't Change Soon!

"Isn't it okay to buy a loss-making company that is going bankrupt and go through identity verification? I haven't heard of this when I bought these two companies?" Jia Lei asked puzzled.

"We have seen the information you brought back, and you bought the bearing factory in the name of a local enterprise in country D, so you don't need identity verification. But the first time we were "seaweed", we had no experience, and we didn't expect to be rejected by the state-owned enterprise identity that we used to participate in the auction. Wang Lao sighed and said.

"Then you can also find someone to set up a company in country D, can't you?" asked Jia Lei.

"Ahem, we have already calculated this, most of the enterprises are seriously loss-making, and our country cannot afford to lose money. I won't buy it!" said Wang Lao.

"The country just wants technology and is not willing to spend money, right?" Jia Lei said in seconds.

"We are not reluctant to spend money in all places, this time we have set our sights on a car factory, the state is ready to take out 300 million US dollars of foreign exchange reserves to participate in the competition, and we also chose a patriotic overseas Chinese as an agent this time. Now that we have successfully passed the first round of identity verification, we would like to ask you, how did you buy these two high-level enterprises in the first place?" Wang Lao asked, in fact, this time the above mainly wanted to learn some experience from Jia Lei to cope with the later competition of automobile manufacturers.

"I don't have any experience, I'm just a blind cat and a dead mouse by chance. Jia Lei said.

"Jia Lei...... You should know how many people you godfather and I have seen with these eyes, so don't lie in front of me. Wang Lao sighed and said.

"Okay! I'll recruit you! It's not a particularly technical thing, it's just a bribe. Jia Lei said.

In fact, it is not as simple as bribery, and the main reason why the government of country D agrees to Jia Lei's purchase of the company is because he is a shareholder of Citibank, and his company is controlled by country M.

"Have you ever used this trick for the people below us to bribe?" asked Fan Ping'an.

"We've been in contact with the officials in charge of the Trusteeship Bureau, but there are so many people staring at the car factories that we can't be as generous as European and American companies. The key is that I don't dare to move too much below, for fear ......of being suspected," Fan Ping'an said.

"Isn't the goal of a godfather automobile factory a bit too big?...... Jia Lei asked again and again, but he knew that the domestic Volkswagen would still be a joint venture thirty years later.

In other words, this acquisition will definitely not happen!

"Yes, what am I telling you to do here! Can you introduce the officials of the Trusteeship Bureau you know to our people?" asked Wang Lao.

"No! Rohedder, the head of the Trusteeship, was assassinated the other day, and my line was broken. Jia Lei said regretfully.

"Hey! This is fate, if we had known that you would be able to catch the line of the director of the trusteeship! Let me ask you how much you plan to sell this factory?" asked Wang Lao.

"Do you really want to buy it?" Jia Lei asked worriedly.

"Yes, you want to buy it, bearing manufacturing is the heart of industry, and it is the key technology of industrial manufacturing!" Wang Lao said.

"Then I'll give you a discount and vomit blood for a big sale! Jia Lei said distressedly.

"How can your heart be so black? We saw that it was written that you only spent 2.5 million marks when you bought it, and this is still the price of two companies, and the price you paid for the bearing factory must not exceed 2 million marks!" said an official who was in attendance.

"My heart is not black at all! The machinery and equipment of the bearing factory itself are worth 25 million marks, and there are three workshops and three sets of assembly line equipment of different specifications in the factory! The key is that in addition to tangible assets, the bearing factory also has all kinds of patents? I can do not need money for these patents, and I will treat me as a patriot if I give them away for nothing! However, the new patent has already been registered in my name, and I will not count this patent in it, and it will make a lot of money just by collecting patent royalties from other manufacturers every year! I will certainly not sell this. Jia Lei said distressedly.

"Why do you charge so much money if you refuse to give us new patents?" someone asked angrily.

"Old patents and equipment are also worth a lot of money, you can't let me lose money and give it to you for nothing, right?" Jia Lei said angrily.

"Hey, stop arguing, do you have something to say? Wang Lao came out to play a round and said.

"This price is too expensive! I'm afraid we'll have to study it, but we can't come up with so much foreign exchange, can we use other things to offset the bill?" asked Wang Lao.

"No, I'm going to use this money to build a hotel! The hotel is built in Berlin, and if you settle it with some soft girl coins, the people of country D won't accept it." Jia Lei said worriedly, although he also wanted to help, but he himself was short of money now!

"In fact, there are many problems in buying this bearing factory, the first is to lay off employees! This is particularly troublesome, a person will not be investigated or put on the newspaper, foreigners are not happy to march. Jia Lei complained.

"It's really a big problem to buy this factory and manage it, if you have a new patent, you can barely maintain it without losing money, but you don't want to sell new patents! I'm afraid we'll lose money every day after we buy it, right?" asked Wang Lao.

"That's right! I will lose three million marks a month!" Jia Lei nodded and said, he had already allocated more than two million marks in cash to the two companies a few days ago.

"Hey, then let's not buy it, the country can't afford to lose it. Wang Lao said.

"Actually, I have a good idea, why don't you listen to it? In fact, you just want technology, you can send workers to work and study in my bearing factory, and I can let him go to any position to study, including the design department and the research and development department!" Jia Lei said.

"You don't understand, we want to produce bearings by ourselves, not only a technical problem, but also a problem of equipment! The most important thing is that we can't produce special steel, the raw material needed for the production of some parts!" Wang Lao said.

"I don't even have the materials, you ......," Jia Leifang said.

"Since the above can not be produced by themselves, go directly to my factory to customize it, what parts you want, as long as the bearing factory can do it, I will let them customize it for you, we are a family, I will not care about the "seaweed" of the M countryman. This will save a lot of money. Jia Lei said.

"That's a solution, I agree!, but how are you going to circumvent the "seaweed" agreement?" asked Wang Lao.

"It's easy, I can export these materials to third countries that don't have this agreement, so that my actions are legal. Then the company in this third-party country will sell the parts to you, so that the company is also legal, and so that our domestic enterprises can get the goods they want, just to spend an extra freight. Jia Lei said that this kind of thing has a name called indirect export in later generations.

"That's a great idea! Let's sign an agreement right away, and I'll get all the parts you have in stock!" said Mr. Wang.

"All those parts are Soviet models, and these are all current accessories, how do you use so many parts after you buy them?" Jia Lei asked suspiciously.

In fact, most of our domestic machinery and equipment are made in the Soviet Union, and bearings are consumables with a service life, and they have always been out of stock in China. Wang Lao said with a smile.

"Those bearings are worth at least 5 million US dollars, is the country rich?" Jia Lei asked, Jia Lei has been cheated more times, and Jia Lei's vigilance has increased.

"Jia Lei, you have to know that our country's foreign exchange reserves are a little tight, do you think we can pay with soft sister coins?" asked Wang Lao.

"Can I say no? I just want dollars or marks! There are still thousands of people in country D waiting for me to pay my salary. Jia Lei asked.

"Otherwise, I can give you a few more pieces of land to offset the payment, the country's financial constraints really can't come up with so much foreign exchange. Wang Lao asked.

"Then I still want land, the recent depreciation of the soft sister currency has been particularly strong, or land insurance. I just want to build a few vegetable greenhouses recently, you can approve me a few vegetable plots in the suburbs of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou!" Jia Lei thought about it and said.

In 1989, the exchange rate of the RMB against the US dollar was 3.7659 RMB per US dollar, the exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar in 1990 was 4.7838 RMB per US dollar, and the exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar in 1991 was 5.3227 RMB per US dollar.

In other words, in the three years after Jia Lei's rebirth, the RMB depreciated by 1.55 yuan, a depreciation of as much as 30%

"Do you want agricultural land? Do you still want industrial land or residential land?" said Wang Lao, adding that the price of agricultural land and industrial land is a hundred times different from that of an acre of land.

An acre of agricultural contracted land is only more than 80 yuan, and the rent of an acre of industrial land and commercial land costs more than 8,000 yuan a year.

I don't want to sell vegetables and don't want to build a house, I don't have the money to build a building, I can only build a vegetable greenhouse, and I now owe tens of millions of dollars in loans from the Bank of Country M. Jia Lei shook his head and said. What he lacks most now is cash, and if he has too much commercial land, it will be particularly conspicuous.

"You say how can you owe so much money as a child?" asked Wang Lao disapprovingly.

"I don't take out a loan, what can I use to buy a bearing factory and a research institute? What can I use to pay wages to two enterprises? The factories in China also cost money, and I am now in debt. Jia Lei said.

"Originally, some people said that you could be on the rich list, but I think you can be on the negative list at most! It is estimated that you can be the first to lose the people who owe bank loans in the country!" Wang Lao said.

"What are you talking nonsense about, my heart will hurt, even if I owe so much money, I still want to give the state a discount! If you buy the bearing factory, you can get more than 20 million marks, which is enough to repay the bank loan!" Jia Lei leaned on the sofa and said.

"Don't buy it! Don't buy it! Lose 3 million marks a month, our country can't afford to lose!" Wang Lao hurriedly shook his head and said.

"I won't lose money, I have asked the economics experts of Beijing University and Mizuki University to help me design a business plan, and they said that as long as I do what I planned, I will be able to turn a loss into a win! You can buy the bearing factory, as long as you leave the land in the store for me." Jia Lei said.

"Godgrandson, I'm afraid you don't know how many experts I have to read in a year, and those experts' plans look pretty good, but if we really implement them according to what is written in the plans, it would be good if we could achieve 30 percent of the original results!" said Wang Lao, who said from his experience.

"No, I'm still pointing to this plan and turning over!" Jia Lei screamed.

"Have you ever heard of a saying, the plan doesn't change quickly!" said Wang Lao.
