Auction day.

Sioux City arrived at the hotel's conference hall 20 minutes early.

There were people waiting outside in advance, or chatting with each other, or discussing something, each with their own things to do. Just when Sioux City was bored, An Sang-woo appeared in front of him.

Seeing Su Cheng, An Shangyu was very happy, his small eyes squinted and smiled, and he said in English: "Su Dong is also here, Dahua Shipbuilding is really a company with lofty ambitions." ”

"Hyundai Korea is not bad. How many ships are you targeting?" Sioux City said casually.

The Korean behind Ahn Sang-woo laughed and said, "There should be dozens of boats." ”

"Huh?"

An Shangyu hurriedly introduced: "This is our business minister Pei Zhongyong. ”

"Zhong Yong, who is loyal and brave. Pei Zhongyong's cheeks were inward-turned, a little skinny. The word Zhongyong is spoken in Chinese.

Su Cheng looked at his white suit and nodded without speaking. He knows that many Koreans have a Chinese name, and these names have beautiful meanings due to language and culture.

However, the thin man in a white suit who looks like a skeleton mage, and his reputation for loyalty and bravery, still makes people laugh.

"How many boats is Su Dong targeting?" Pei Zhongyong asked him in turn.

"About five. "Sioux City is talking about Dahua Shipbuilding's goal.

Pei Zhongyong laughed twice and said, "There are only 5 ships? Dahua Shipbuilding is the strongest shipping company in China? Will you choose the ones below 20,000 tons?"

Sioux City wants to say that CSIC is the strongest shipbuilding company in China, and when you think about it, CSSC is only ready to bid for 5 ships.

The two sides add up to 10 ships, and the level is really not very good.

In the 90s, China was actually in a state of light industry accumulation, and it will take another 20 years for the situation to change completely. China in the 90s, selling shirts all over the world, China in 2010. It began to sell machinery all over the world.

However, the future is the future after all, and in January 1993, faced with the provocation of a skinny South Korean stick, Sioux City could only spread his hands and say, "Each company will be based on its own situation." Make the right choice. ”

Say this sentence. Even Sioux City himself felt vulnerable.

Sioux City has not been so weak since bidding for the Setan oil field. Even though the conversation doesn't affect the company's bottom line, the grievances are the same.

An Shangyu noticed something, and interrupted with a smile: "Dahua Shipbuilding has great potential, maybe in a few years, we will have to learn from Dahua, Minister Pei, the giant section technology is developed by Dahua Shipbuilding itself." They have experience in the manufacture of offshore oil rigs, as well as offshore floating storage vessels....... ”

Pei Zhongyong didn't know what to think, so he interrupted An Shangyu's words and said: "Anyway, the current Dahua is still learning from our modern heavy industry. It seems to be a matter of course that students are inferior to teachers. Is it a matter of course......?

This kind of dialogue has completely gone beyond the realm of commercial interests. Su Cheng's face turned pale, and he said solemnly to An Shangyu: "What does this mean?"

An Shangyu was stunned for a long time. He is an engineer, and there is no problem when he talks about contracts normally, but he is dumbfounded when he encounters emergencies. Ai Ai said: "Su Dong, Minister Pei may not be very clear. ”

"It's still unclear?" Pei Zhongyong stopped in front of An Shangyu and said, "Then I'll make it clear, don't look at Dahua Shipbuilding to obtain LNG ship technology from Hyundai Heavy Industry." But if you want to catch up with us, you never have to think about it. 5 ships? I'll let you not get one. All orders, all mine. ”

Pei Zhongyong was a little aggressive, which attracted many people from the company.

This surprised Su Cheng, Pei Zhongyong's behavior obviously exceeded the scope of impulse, how could a small body like him have such a big anger, and it was aimed at Chinese companies.

In 93 years, unlike later generations, the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and South Korea was a matter of applause and celebration for both sides. South Koreans celebrate the completion of their Northern Plan and the establishment of diplomatic relations with most of the Warsaw Pact countries. China celebrates its establishment of diplomatic relations with most Asian countries and its emergence as a regional power, while further breaking through the blockade of the United States and Europe.

Exchanges between Chinese and Korean companies have just begun to increase, and they are still in the stage of mutual understanding. Pei Zhongyong, a young man in his twenties and thirties, how could he have such a big grievance. To be in front of South Korea's angry youth, Chinese companies, Japanese companies and American companies are lining up. Before the prosperity of Chinese manufacturing, they gave South Korean youth a much greater sting than Chinese companies.

Thinking of this, a thought rose in Su Cheng's head, Pei Zhongyong is only in his 20s, how can he become the head of the business department.

Hyundai Heavy Industries is a standard multinational company. It is also a symbol of the super chaebol in South Korea, and graduates in their 20s should be thankful if they can find a job at Hyundai Heavy Industries, let alone the position of minister. This is already a standard executive position.

Su Chenghu looked at An Shangyu suspiciously, and said, "Pei Zhongyong is a family member of the chairman of your group?"

An Shangyu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

Pei Zhongyong glared at An Shangyu and said, "Whether it's a family member."

Members, or members of the company, I can clearly tell you that the modern heavy union is far ahead, not only now, but also in the future......"

Facing a foreigner, Sioux City had nothing to take into account, so he pouted and asked, "What do you provoke me to do?"

Pei Zhongyong didn't expect Su Cheng to be so keen, so he snorted and said, "Transferring technology to you is just a waste of time." You are also wasting your own time. ”

Then he turned and walked away.

An Shangyu took this opportunity and hurriedly said: "Mr. Pei Zhongyong is deliberate, he is a faction within the group that resolutely demands the implementation of technology monopoly, please don't care." ”

"I can understand what he did. Su Cheng was halfway through his words, and without waiting for An Shangyu to relax, he said, "But I won't let him talk nonsense like this." ”

An Shangyu was anxious: "The cooperation between Hyundai and Dahua Industry is beneficial to both parties and Dahua. ”

"Our cooperation continues. Su Cheng would not do the thing of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, so he turned his head and asked: "Pei Zhongyong is the person in charge of Hyundai Heavy Industry's bidding this time?"

Ahn Sang-woo whispered "yes".

"What's his bottom line? How many boats does the bid get?"

Ahn Sang-woo was silent, this was already on the verge of trade secrets.

Su Cheng smiled and changed the subject: "You are in favor of the cooperation between Hyundai and Dahua Group, right?"

"Of course. ”

"So, you and Pei Zhongyong are not from the same faction?"

An Shangyu didn't say yes or no, turned his head and said: "In this bidding, my task is to assist him, not to destroy the bidding......"

"You are the deputy, Pei Zhongyong is the person in charge, do you think it is right?"

"Mr. Sioux City, Hyundai Group is a family business, and that's how we've been running for years. An Shangyu said that he was uncomfortable. Hyundai Group is learning from the model of the Nippon Foundation, that is, the model of Kang Tseen. Although they are a family business, they have always been committed to downplaying the color of blood ties, and there is a long tradition of appointing professional managers, and Ahn Sang-woo should have been in charge of this case if he had not been an engineer.

However, people are reluctant to look for problems from themselves, and An Shangyu is relieved, but in fact he is still unhappy.

Su Cheng touched his chin and smiled: "Let me guess, the bottom line of modern times should be 10 ships?"

He is thinking about problems in the capacity of the chairman of the company. If Dahua Industrial is on a modern scale, what kind of results will he ask the person in charge of bidding to obtain?

Pei Zhongyong was ashamed to say that all orders must not be the requirements of the modern board of directors, and even the requirements of 20 ships are a bit excessive. That's a million-ton order, enough for the shipyard to keep it busy for a while.

10 ships, I think it's a good line.

After completing the award, there may be those who fail to complete it.

An Shangyu nodded reluctantly, this is his bottom line.

After doing this action, An Shangyu quickly trotted back to Pei Zhongyong's queue.

Su Cheng shook the corners of his clothes and watched the white suit enter the conference room.

He didn't rush in, but called Dong Feng and said, "You go and ask Li Cang, if I want to sign an order for a few more ships, what is the limit?"

More is not always better. In particular, although the profit of this kind of ship with a limited delivery time is higher, the penalty for failure to complete it is also high. If you sign too much, you will lose money and die.

Dong Feng left as he said, and reported after a while: "Only 11 general sections and sectional workshops have been built, and it is the limit to complete 5 ships in 9 and a half months." ”

"What about handing over the general section to another shipyard?"

"That's a lot of tolerance. ”

"It doesn't have to be all domestic orders. Call Zhang Chao again and ask him if he can do it?" Su Cheng held back this idea for a long time. Shipbuilding is the same as aircraft building, and unless there is a state of war, it would be nonsense to make it all by the factories of one country. China's state-owned enterprises and the enterprises of the former Soviet Union like to do this, monopolizing in the name of the military industry, and the result is that the entire country's industry is in chaos.

However, China in '93 was still very short of foreign exchange, and the relationship between Dahua and CSSC had just eased, so Su Cheng wanted to wait to discuss the matter.

Ordering from abroad is tantamount to expanding Dahua's supply chain to other countries, and it is not just a matter of talking. If it was a normal period, 9 months might not be enough for supply chain integration, Zhang Chao had been doing this for a long time, and Su Cheng wanted to know if he could complete the most basic part.

The answer is yes.

"Chairman Sioux City, the bidding is about to begin. "The staff of Singapore Shipping Group came to invite me politely. At this point, everyone else went in.

Su Cheng bowed his head and said to Dong Feng: "Find Li Cang again to confirm, prepare to increase the number of ship orders, reduce the contract time, and give me a data." Give me your BP machine. ”

Dong Feng hurriedly took it down. His BP machine was bought when he arrived in Singapore, and he used it for temporary contact.
