"Peruvian nationality?"

Renouf looked Wang Zheyi up and down with suspicious eyes, trying to find a little flaw in her.

Wang Zheyi was calm, she took a blind attitude towards Renuf, stretched out her hand directly to Snyder, and said with a smile: "Mr. Snyder, it's a pleasure to meet you, I hope we can cooperate happily in the follow-up affairs." ”

"I think so." Snyder shook hands with Wang Zheyi, then turned to Qin Hai and said, "Mr. Qin, you came just in time, Mr. Renouf brought the latest requirements of the European Union, and they hope that we can ensure that this batch of equipment is always under the monitoring of the European Union and will not be shipped to inappropriate third countries." ”

"What do you mean by an inappropriate third country?" Qin Hai asked knowingly.

Snyder shrugged his shoulders and said, "Naturally, those countries that are forbidden in Batumi. ”

Qin Hai sneered: "Hehe, the Cold War is over, but EU officials are still clinging to the Cold War mentality, which is really a ridiculous thing." ”

"We just want to be able to safeguard the EU's security interests, and it has nothing to do with the Cold War mentality." Renuf sternly corrected Qin Hai's words.

Qin Haidao: "Mr. Renuf, I hope you can remember your words today, I believe that one day the EU will beg those so-called inappropriate countries to buy EU products." ”

"Really? I don't think I'll see this day. Renouf said arrogantly.

"Two gentlemen, this issue is not what we need to discuss now, let's talk about the equipment." Snyder hurriedly played the round, for fear that the two of them would choke. Snyder had heard of Renuf and knew that he was a strong chauvinist, especially hostile to a socialist country like China. Qin Hai, on the other hand, is a person with strong national self-esteem, relying on his wealth as support, and does not take Europe into account at all. It's strange that these two people get together and don't fight.

Qin Hai didn't mean to entangle with Renouf, as a person with memories of the future, he knew that the European Union, which was now in full swing, would fall into decline in just a dozen years, and there would be a so-called European debt crisis. At that time, the EU will use China's support as a life-saving straw, not to mention a few sets of semiconductor equipment, and even the territory of the EU will be eager to cut a few pieces and sell them to China in exchange for hard currency in China's hands.

If these things are said now, let alone a European like Renuf, even Wang Zheyi probably won't believe it. So Qin Hai chose to put this topic aside, anyway, the future is not far away, and both he and Renouf have the opportunity to see the scene of feng shui taking turns.

"It's ridiculous that the EU has weakened enough to rely on a technological blockade to maintain that pitiful advantage. Forget it, we don't intend to irritate the fragile minds of the European Union, so we chose a Peruvian company as the transferee of the equipment. Peru is not on the list of restrictions, is it, Mr. Renuf? Qin Haizui said unforgivingly.

Hearing Qin Hai's sarcasm, the corners of Renouf's mouth twitched, and he wanted to refute it, but he couldn't find a suitable explanation. "Yes, you can ship the equipment to Peru, but you must also make sure that the equipment is not resold to other sensitive countries, including China," he said. ”

"How do we need to be sure? Do you want to sign it? Qin Hai asked.

"You need to sign an official document promising that these devices will not leave Peru. In addition, we also need to install beacons on our devices so that we can monitor the location of these devices at all times. Renouf said.

"Beacons?" Qin Hai frowned slightly, this change was something he hadn't expected beforehand.

The method of installing beacons on devices has begun to emerge in recent years, in order to monitor the location of some important equipment and prevent the equipment from being used in areas other than those for which it was designated. A beacon is a positioning device that can measure the displacement of the device with the help of an internal gyroscope and GPS signals. Once a device equipped with a beacon is moved, even if it is only a dozen meters away, the beacon will be activated to send a specific signal that can let the monitor know what is happening.

In the process of introducing advanced equipment from Western countries, China has repeatedly encountered such a situation. Western countries demanded that such equipment should be used only for civilian purposes and should not be transferred to military-industrial enterprises. In order to monitor the location of equipment, companies in Western countries will install beacons on these devices to ensure that these devices remain in their original location without changing.

It should be said that this is a blatant practice of bullying. However, because China's technological level lags behind that of the West, it has no choice but to turn to Western countries, so it can only accept such humiliating conditions. With the continuous improvement of the technical level of China's equipment industry, there are fewer and fewer places where the West can get stuck in China's neck, and this practice of installing beacons on equipment has gradually begun to withdraw from the historical stage.

The semiconductor equipment that Qin Hai hopes to get from Nice is not the most advanced in the West, but it is still in a leading position compared to China's existing equipment. Because of this, some officials in the European Union with a Cold War mentality are very concerned about the whereabouts of this batch of equipment, even if Nice says that the equipment is only destined for Peru, EU officials are not at ease, so they offer beacons as a magic weapon.

"This is a condition that the European Union allows us to ship out of the equipment, and if we don't agree to this condition, then we will not be able to ship the equipment to Peru." Snyder explained to Qin Hai in a low voice.

Qin Hai's thoughts, Snyder knows. If it weren't for the purpose of getting this batch of equipment, Qin Hai would not have spent a lot of money to acquire Nice Company. After discussion, the board of directors of the Nice company decided to agree to Qin Hai's request, and adopted the method of concealing the world, and sent the equipment out of the United Kingdom in the name of shipping to Peru.

However, such a tacit agreement was broken by the demands of the European Union. The beacons of the devices are not installed until they have arrived at their destination, which means that the EU will send personnel to Peru to inspect the devices before attaching them to the beacons. Once the beacon is installed, it will be impossible for the Daqin Group to smuggle the equipment away. Unless Qin Hai is willing to risk the world's condemnation, knowing that it will be noticed by the EU, he still does the thing of transferring equipment. If it really goes to that point, both the Nice company and the Daqin Group will be punished by the EU, and the price will be very large.

Because of this, Snyder felt extremely helpless about the EU directive brought by Renuf, and he was worried that in this way, I am afraid that Qin Hai would no longer be interested in acquiring the Nice company.

Qin Hai also quickly calculated this matter in his heart, he would not do anything that blatantly violated the EU's ban, after all, Daqin Group is an export-oriented enterprise with a large amount of business in the international market, and if it is blocked by the EU, the loss will be very severe. Although he is very anxious to get this batch of semiconductor equipment, it is not worth it to put the credibility of the entire enterprise on the line.

But if the equipment is not successfully shipped back to China, then the acquisition is not of much value. Transporting the equipment to Peru was just a trick, and Qin Hai didn't want to make it true.

Looking at Qin Hai's hesitant look, Wang Zheyi smiled slightly and asked Snyder: "Mr. Snyder, I want to know, is the beacon on the device installed in the United Kingdom or in Peru?" ”

"Installed in Peru, of course." "Because the device needs to be located and the number of relevant numbers is recorded after installation, the beacon can only be assembled after the device is installed." ”

"So, who is going to do the work of installing the beacons?" Wang Zheyi asked again.

"It's Mr. Renuf." Snyder pointed at Renuf and said.

Wang Zheyi said: "If this is the case, then there is one thing that needs to be explained in advance. We are not responsible for Mr. Renouf's transportation expenses to Peru. In addition, he also needs to bear his own food and lodging in Peru. Because he wasn't our guest, he was a disgusting troublemaker. ”

Hearing Wang Zheyi's words, Qin Hai cast a beam of eyes at her in surprise, and what he got was Wang Zheyi's sure look. Qin Hai didn't know what to do, but it was not suitable to ask Wang Zheyi for advice at this time, so he nodded and said, "Ms. Wang's opinion is the opinion of our group. What beacons the EU wants to put in our equipment, we can accept. However, if the European Union Trade Commission wants to blackmail us in the name of paying their employees to travel for free, we will probably have to complain to the relevant authorities. ”

Listening to Wang Zheyi and Qin Hai singing and harmonizing, Renuf's face turned white, and he said: "Don't worry, the EU will pay for the trip, but in case the equipment is transferred to other places, I have to go to Peru with the ship that transports the equipment." ”

"As long as you can afford the ticket, we don't mind." Wang Zheyi said with a sneering face.

If you don't speculate, you can't talk anymore. Renuf reiterated the EU's demands to Snyder, and then left Snyder's office in a huff. Snyder symbolically sent him to the door and watched him go, then returned to the office and said to Qin Hai and Wang Zheyi: "Two, I'm very sorry, the EU notified us temporarily, and I didn't even have time to inform Mr. Qin of the situation. ”

"It's okay, what we're doing is going to stand up to scrutiny anyway." "Mr. Snyder, you can arrange for workers to disassemble the equipment now, and I look forward to seeing it in Peru as soon as possible." ”R1152
