Chapter 643: There Are Still People Who Don't Buy It?
In any case, the news that Alice Group is going to purchase its own fuel cell research and TF production equipment is good news for GM: how can the news of sending money to itself not be good news?
As the largest company under the Morgan consortium, GE Group naturally wants to serve its own boss, and its purpose is only one, that is, to make money for its boss. [Drunk] [Lu] It's just that although the Alice Group is sending money to itself, there is one thing that makes the General Electric Group very difficult: According to the regulations of the US government, these high-tech research equipment and production equipment are not allowed to be exported to China, and for many years these technologically advanced countries such as the United States, Japan, and Europe have been trying their best to prevent too advanced technology from flowing into communist China, let alone such top technology, even if it is an American company in China.
This is not the most important thing, and most importantly, it is also against the interests of the Morgan consortium. If the flow of technology into China had benefited the Morgan consortium, the Morgan consortium would have let it into the hands of the Chinese long ago. Just don't forget that the Morgan consortium is actually one of the few big conglomerates that control the United States, the most powerful country in the world, behind the scenes.
For capital, seeing such a large sum of money in front of him but not being able to get it is like a dog that has been hungry for three days and suddenly finds that he has a fat, meaty, fragrant, and steaming meat bone in front of him, but he can only watch dryly, and his saliva flows into a stream but he can't eat it.
In such a situation, the dog's reaction is to snort and bark vigorously, scratch the ground with its paws, and vigorously wrestle the chain around its neck, and try by all means, even loud and two, to prompt its owner to put the bone in his face paint, and he must eat the bone in his mouth anyway.
And when they saw that the money was in front of them, the reaction of capital was to do everything possible to put the money in their own pockets -- just like the chain around the neck of a dog, and now the US government's technological blockade of China is the chain tied to the neck of the General Electric Group that makes them unable to eat meat and bones.
For this matter, Welch, President of GE Group, specially sent Smith, Vice President of GE's Energy Group, to China to discuss with Miss Alice about the introduction of GE Group's fuel cell project research equipment and production equipment.
Smith sat in front of Alice, a little nervous, and he couldn't help but be nervous. The person in front of him, but the person who can talk directly to his boss Morgan, this is a task that requires him to look up vigorously and bend his neck at 90 degrees to be able to look up, and now Alice can meet him in person, which really gives him a lot of face.
Just like the slave of the rich man of the Zhang family in ancient times, he would be nervous when he saw the master of the Li family, and now Smith is also nervous, and now Smith, who is sitting in the seat in front of Alice and his butt is only half a chair, feels that the palms of his two hands are sweaty!
"Miss Alice," Smith respectfully handed Alice his GE Energy Group's introduction materials on fuel cells to Alice, "This is some simple information about our company's fuel cell project, you can take a look at it." ”
Casually flipped through a few pages. Alice didn't even lift her head. The tone is bland. Asked softly. "Mr. Smith. It seems that this is not the information that you GE can provide to us at Alice Group with the most advanced fuel cell research equipment and production equipment? If the GE group of companies does not cooperate in good faith. Well. I wonder if we should rethink the relationship between the two groups. ”
Alice's tone was light. Smith broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead: reconsider the positioning of the relationship between the two companies? What does Alice mean by that? Could it be that she still plans to lower the level of cooperation between the two groups? My God. If this tragedy happened during his visit to the Alice Group. After that return, he became the vice president of GE Energy. I'm afraid it's a little dangerous.
"We are certainly willing to provide the Alice Group with state-of-the-art research equipment." Smith's tone sounded a little genuinely scared. "But Miss Alice, you should know. Such high-tech research equipment. It is within the scope of our government's restrictions on the export of local products and technologies to China. ”
"Who says I have to set up an R&D center in China?" Alice looked up at Smith. "As an American company. I set up a fuel cell R&D facility in the U.S. This is a matter of course. This one. Questions? ”
Belch? Hear Alice say this. Smith was a little dumbfounded: in the previous few contacts. Alice's assistant Jill didn't mention that they set up a research and development facility in the United States. Just think about it again
Jill also did not say that he would set up a fuel cell R&D facility in China. Could it be that T3 made a mistake on his side for a long time. Could it be wrong?
"I'm sorry, Miss Alice, can I ask," Smith asked cautiously, "where is your fuel cell R&D facility going to be set up?" ”
"For the time being, it's a confidential matter for our company," Alice said, "but Mr. Smith just needs to know that we're going to have fuel cell R&D facilities in China and the U.S. as well." ”
"Understood," Smith nodded, "I'll revise this information when I get back."
Well, I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding caused by the lack of communication between each other, and I hope this will not affect the good relationship between Alice Group and GE Group. ”
Smith snickered in his heart: If that's the case, it's hard to say about the production equipment for fuel cells, but in terms of fuel cell research equipment, they plan to buy at least two sets of research equipment? Well, even if the production equipment used by Alice Group in China is of poor technical level, these equipment are not cheap! It seems that my trip to China will be very successful!
"No," Alice smiled, "as long as we communicate a little more in the future, I don't think this kind of misunderstanding will happen again for a while." ”,
Zhang Lan watched the excitement on the side: It's really capitalism, money is more important than everything, as long as there is money to be made, there is nothing they can't do.
The "Bayonet and Rose" container ship carrying 13 vehicles of Alice's "Snow Leopard Team" and a Mi-26 heavy transport helicopter will arrive at Qingdao Port tomorrow. What to do with the X6 military all-wheel drive heavy truck? It is said that such a heavily modified professional racing car is not allowed on the road, but the performance of this car is so good, just drive it back, do you have to send a tow truck to tow them back? Ten cars, with the size and length of the Mercedes-Benz military all-wheel drive military truck, it will take 10 trailers to be able to do it, and if there is time to send the trailer, it is better to let the convoy send a few people to drive the car back directly by themselves.
As early as when it was determined that these cars were coming from the sea, the Alice Group negotiated with the relevant transportation department: Can we drive these cars back by ourselves? It's okay for others to do this, and the transportation department will definitely not agree, but if it is Alice Group, this matter will make the leaders hesitate: it will definitely not work according to the regulations. But it seems that there is an exception, doesn't it? Why don't you make an exception for them?
In Zhang Lan's view, in fact, the matter is very simple, as long as the traffic police ignore these cars on the road, no one will talk about these cars. It's easy to do if you just drive in Qingdao, but this time you need to start from Qingdao, pass through Rizhao on the way, and then get to your own ground, which requires the coordination of the relationship between the three municipal transportation.
Of course, there is no problem in the city, and the municipal party committee and municipal government have long had instructions for the matter of Alice Group: as long as it is not too illegal to violate the policy, it will be given the green light! In the eyes of the leaders of the municipal party committee and government, aren't they just a few modified cars that are not allowed on the road? Is this still a policy violation? There are a lot of cars that violate the policy, how big is this, is it a hair? The Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government directly instructed the Municipal Transportation Bureau: All these cars of the Alice Group will be released.
The Qingdao Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government are now looking at the aircraft manufacturing project of Alice Group, hoping that Alice Group can put the entire high-tech development project that can drive the entire high-tech development of Qingdao in Qingdao, and naturally will not make itself uncomfortable at this time.
It's just that when it came to Rizhao, the Rizhao government began to be a little, and refused to agree. The Rizhao Municipal Government did not agree, although this matter was nothing in the eyes of the Rizhao Municipal Transportation Bureau, but since the above did not agree, he could not make a mistake with the above for this matter, and he did not dare to give Zhang Lan an accurate news.
Finally, after not getting an accurate answer from Rizhao for a long time, Zhang Lan was a little angry: It's a big deal to drive the car to meet him personally! As soon as the license plate starting with the Beijing V-029 is put down, and the white "guard" plate is put on the front windshield, when the time comes, in the name of carrying out the mission, who dares to stop him? Who dares, grandma is a bear, then beat him up first! I wanted to give you a little face, but now I'm really going to kick my nose in the face, right?
To be honest, as soon as Zhang Lan's license plate and the guard plate were hung, no one really dared to come to find awkwardness: it is not easy for anyone to pick up this bowl of public rice, and they can't get along with their own rice bowls, right?
