Chapter Forty-Five: Trouble for the First Arrival
The efficiency of the Germans has always been quite high.
Worthen was sure that these technical materials were all true, and they were all urgently needed by the company now, and he seemed to be more anxious than "Suzuki Ikyu".
Immediately invited "Suzuki Kazukyu" to his office, and hung up the direct phone to the headquarters in front of the other party.
The German headquarters attached great importance to Worthen's report, and after a two-hour verification meeting, it immediately arranged for a deputy chief engineer to lead the team and fly to Hong Kong by special plane that evening.
In a business suite at the Hilton Hotel, Yang Weiping had heated negotiations with a negotiation team sent by Mercedes-Benz's headquarters.
The negotiations lasted all night.
Yang Weiping opened his mouth and shouted out the sky-high price of 10 million US dollars.
The Germans are not fools, of course do not agree.
As a result, the two sides traded at the price, arguing and-for-tat, both of which held their respective positions and did not give an inch.
Yang Weiping's reason for prescribing this price code is very sufficient, claiming that these techniques are the results achieved by the Suzuki family after spending ten years and investing more than 3 billion yen before and after, and he is now only selling the four techniques as cabbage for only 10 million US dollars.
The reason of the Germans is also very simple, they are also studying these techniques, and some links have already made breakthroughs, at most three years, they can come up with more advanced power technology than Suzuki.
Fortunately, Yang Weiping is proficient in German, and if this negotiation is negotiated through an interpreter, it will have to fall apart.
In the face of the young technical experts from the Suzuki family in Japan, the senior engineers of Mercedes-Benz are also very helpless, because this guy is obviously not like an ordinary gentleman, and his attainments in engine technology are even more superb than their German experts.
Unable to blackmail in terms of technique, the Germans soon showed their pragmatic side.
After repeated negotiations and discussions, in the end, Yang Weiping opened a transaction method acceptable to both parties:
Mercedes-Benz paid Yang Weiping $5 million in cash, and then provided him with a batch of precision machine tools such as CNC precision turning, grinding, milling, boring, reum, keng, punching, drilling, wire cutting, material analysis molding, and tube material forming, which also included a set of five-axis turning machining centers and a set of milling machining centers.
After the US$5 million was deposited into the Standard Chartered bank account designated by Yang Weiping, Yang Weiping first handed over a full set of technical information on the CCI separation lubrication system, PEI non-contact ignition device, and SACS system.
After all the precision machine tools are delivered to the warehouse designated by Xiangjia Weiping, the rest of the SAEC automatic exhaust system and rectangular four-cylinder engine data are all handed over.
Although the Germans know that the international market price of the batch of precision machine tools actually exceeds five million US dollars, however, these precision machine tools produced in Germany, Mercedes-Benz can get the lowest factory price, so calculated, can still save a lot of money.
It took a total of half a month for this transaction to be reached, and afterwards, the two parties also signed a strict confidentiality agreement with a confidentiality period of 30 years.
During this period, Yang Weiping took the 5 million US dollars in his hand and bought a smelter that was on the verge of closure for 2.4 million Hong Kong dollars in the Kwun Tong Industrial Zone, Kowloon, which had been more than half completed.
The batch of precision machine tools shipped from Germany is now temporarily sealed in the warehouse of the smelter, which was renamed "Tiangong", for other use.
The labor relations and management of the smelter were all sorted out on October 8, 1976.
Standing in front of the spotlessly polished floor-to-ceiling windows of the chairman's office in the factory office building, Yang Weiping smoked a cigar while looking out at the northern sky. β¦,
The wheel of history still has its unchangeable and powerful inertia, although the life trajectory of some people around Yang Weiping has deviated, but the overall direction is still rolling forward according to the original track.
On October 6, the media in Hong Kong reported a big news that shocked the whole world: a coup d'Γ©tat occurred in China, and the new generation of top leadership arrested all the original four-member group, and at the same time announced the end of the decade-long cultural revolution!
The changes in the situation on the mainland have not had any impact on Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong people living in the capitalist world should live how they should live, except that the British army and police stationed in Hong Kong have strengthened the blockade and patrol of the border north of the New Territories.
Yang Weiping knew in his heart that the current country must be a joyful scene in the whole country, and those government officials who originally belonged to the four-person group must be in a mess at this time, seeking a way out.
I just don't know what kind of situation Jinnan County is in. Yang Weiping sighed secretly.
During this time, with the help of the tutor invited by Yang Weiping from the University of Hong Kong, Qiu Fang, Xiang Rong, and Xiang Yang were finally able to understand some simple Cantonese, and Luo Xiaotong, who learned the fastest, was already able to communicate with the tutor in some daily language.
In Hong Kong, you can do it all with money. Qiu Fang, Luo Xiaotong, Xiang Rong, and Xiang Yang now have official Hong Kong resident identity cards. And their household registration information is all authentic, because they replace the real files of the four missing persons.
Today's Hong Kong is an era of gangsters rampant with the four major Chinese detectives. Turning missing persons' files into money is one of the usual ways for police officers at police stations to make money.
As an industrial investor, Hong Kong's laws have a variety of preferential policies for investors, and the inspectors and inspectors of the New Territories Police Department have shown great enthusiasm and enthusiasm for Yang Weiping, the new God of Wealth.
Because Yang Weiping not only spent 2.4 million Hong Kong dollars to buy the smelter that was about to collapse at one time, but also invested an additional 3 million Hong Kong dollars to improve the factory's plant, infrastructure, machinery and equipment, and employee welfare.
In recent years, it is rare for Hong Kong to invest 5 million Hong Kong dollars in cash in business, and Hong Kong people would rather invest all their money in the stock market and real estate than invest in industrial factories. After all, Hong Kong's geographical location and resources make it not suitable for industrial development.
In the eyes of the police and the community, the businesses that run factories are the fat meat they are staring at. Everyone has drawn a clear boundary of territory, and no one is allowed to cross the line to make money.
Although Yang Weiping has never lived in Hong Kong, he has heard of some of them, and he knows that the current gangs in Hong Kong are colluding with the police, and the gangsters are rampant and domineering, lawless, and if they want to operate normally, they must have backers.
How to seek self-protection is a major event that Yang Weiping has been racking his brains for this time.
Although the Xiangrong and Xiangyang brothers can fight and kill, they only have two people after all, as the so-called two fists are invincible to four hands, and the evil tigers are also afraid of wolves. Until he came up with a definite and feasible countermeasure, Yang Weiping did not dare to let the smelter start production and operation.
After the knock on the door, Xiang Rong's voice came from outside the office door: "Boss, the doorman in the communication room called and said that there were four more young men who heard that we were recruiting workers here and wanted to come to our factory as workers." β
"Who is the other party?" Yang Weiping asked with a slight frown.
Like today's situation, it has happened more than once during this period of time, and it is all some old boys in the community who are extorting money on the pretext of recruitment.
Considering that it is still a newcomer and has not yet fully grasped the surrounding environment, Yang Weiping endured it for the time being, and the right is to spend money to eliminate the disaster, after all, these old boys are not very open, and they will send them away for 120,000 Hong Kong dollars first, and then find an opportunity to settle the general account with them in the future. β¦,
In this regard, Xiang Rong and Xiang Yang had long been holding back a fire in their hearts, but Yang Weiping did not allow them to do it, and they could only endure it.
"He said he had just been released from Stanley Prison. Xiang Rong flickered his teeth and said with an angry look in his eyes: "Boss, you can't bear it anymore!" People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden, we must teach them a lesson, otherwise these grandsons will really use us as soft persimmons!"
"It's not the time to do it yet. Yang Weiping shook his head indifferently, "That Inspector Huang of the New Territories Police Station is now hoping that we will make a mistake, and then he can justifiably seal this factory." β
"What can I do then, boss, or I'll just go and kill that Inspector Huang!" Xiang Rong said through gritted teeth with murderous anger in his eyes.
"If you kill Inspector Huang, there will be other detectives to replace you, can you kill them all?" Yang Weiping sighed earnestly and said: "Brother Xiang, no matter how patient you are, killing people is not the only way to solve the problem." What we need is to solve this problem from the root. β
"Boss, I can't bear it, but every time I see you take a lot of money out of your pocket, I'm anxious for you!" Xiang Rong said with a worried face.
Seeing the sincere concern that emerged in Xiang Rong's tiger eyes, Yang Weiping couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort in his heart.
After observing the Xiangrong and Xiangyang brothers during this period of time, it turned out that Yang Weiping did not look at the wrong person.
In the last life, the two brothers were the kind of loyal men who admitted death and would rather die than betray their boss. As long as you can be good to them, they will willingly give you their lives.
Although he had some memories of the Xiangrong and Xiangyang brothers in the previous life, Yang Weiping still had to observe them in secret. The forbearance during this period is actually a test for the Xiang brothers.
Yang Weiping must use facts to confirm that Xiang Rong and Xiang Yang are completely trustworthy henchmen. Hong Kong, the bridgehead, is too important for his future career, and if he trusts someone else, the key is to waste time.
For a long time in the future, it is impossible for Yang Weiping to keep an eye on Hong Kong for a long time, he needs someone who can make him absolutely trusted, to help him watch this foundation, this person does not need to be too shrewd, he just needs to be able to unconditionally and strictly implement all his instructions.
