Bosch's position in the world is not the same as that of the German Kohler company.

Bosch is the world's factory for precision mechanics and electrical engineering, employing 230,000 people in Germany alone and 275,000 people worldwide.

Bosch's products are used in all areas of the world, but the largest output is automobiles, and they are the world's largest supplier of automotive technology products.

Many of the world's cars on the road have on-board computers made by Bosch, as well as the ABS anti-lock braking system and ESP body stability system in use, which are all from Bosch.

The purpose of Jin Xiaoqiang's visit to Bosch this time is to get Bosch's ECU, as well as ESP, and a very large production line of high-precision stamping equipment.

Bosch has a factory in Suzhou and a headquarters in the Celestial Empire region in Shanghai, but this time because what Jin Xiaoqiang wants to get is a bit special, so he plans to come to the headquarters to negotiate more cost-effective, after all, some of his conditions, in the branch of the Celestial Empire, it is still difficult for the executives there to decide.

When she was in China, Alice made the most phone calls and emailed the most frequent contact with this Bosch company, and the two sides even held several video meetings before, and they had a full understanding of the purpose of this negotiation.

When I arrived in Stuttgart, it was already evening local time, and Bosch was very generous, and directly sent a special car to send Jin Xiaoqiang and Alice to the hotel to rest, and the next day they were negotiating.

Early the next morning, Jin Xiaoqiang arrived at the Bosch headquarters with Alice, and also visited the Bosch production line under the guidance of a business manager to learn about the machinery and equipment they needed.

Then turned back to the conference room, the two sides began to negotiate, and there were also more than a dozen engineers of stamping equipment present, and Jin Xiaoqiang began to explain his requirements, and then the other party designed and decided according to Jin Xiaoqiang's requirements.

It was also very soon that the other party came up with some design plans that had been equipped before and showed them to Jin Xiaoqiang, who quickly selected a set of high-precision automatic stamping production lines with A01 and A02.

The two lines are suitable for the production of large outer plates and inner plates, with an average production cycle of 8.5 times per minute, of which the A02 line has a very high technical content, consisting of 2000T+1000T+800T+800T+800T stamping production line in series, and the first energy press is a configuration of 4.8 connecting rods.

The hydraulic pad of Rexroth, as well as the robotic arm of Swiss Gudel, as well as the supporting on-line cleaning and on-line oiling machine are used to ensure the cleanliness of the sheet.

Such a production line, not to mention the production of cars, will be the production of SUVs, trucks, and trucks in the future.

After selecting this production line, Jin Xiaoqiang and the other party put forward the requirements for ECU supply, although he and Liu Xiaoliang had also calculated some DVVT and CVVT engine control data, but in other aspects there are still some defects, which requires Bosch's ECU to cooperate with the work, after all, Bosch is the world's largest ECU manufacturer.

Moreover, the 1.6 engine of the 'Octavia' sedan he designed used the ECUs that the other party provided to Volkswagen Polo, and they needed to fine-tune these ECUs.

There is also the procurement of ESP systems, etc., because there are many projects to procure, and the projects are more complicated, so it takes a lot of time to discuss.

Both sides are on the point of interest of their own needs, and it is reasonable to argue that Jin Xiaoqiang needs Bosch's products very much, because he is not like Toyota Honda, which has his own core technology of reading power, and can not rely on Bosch.

His car factory is only in its infancy, so it is still inseparable from Bosch's technical support, so he does not dare to bargain too hard.

In the end, it took three days to negotiate the contract, and the two parties set the price at 20 million US dollars for the large stamping equipment, and finally the price of the ECU was set at 350 yuan a piece, and the price of the ESP system was 3,500 yuan a set.

Of course, the two sides signed a long-term supply contract, which stipulates that Jin Xiaoqiang will purchase at least 200,000 sets of such products at this price every year, and the contract is valid for ten years.

If it is less than this amount, Jin Xiaoqiang will pay a high amount of liquidated damages, if it exceeds this amount, it will be executed in accordance with the price on the contract, of course, the payment method will be paid to Bosch in US dollars after settlement in RMB.

To be honest, the price of ECU and ESP, the price given by Bosch is definitely not low, and in terms of the current market price, they simply treat Jin Xiaoqiang as a wronged leader.

Unfortunately, what they don't know is the economic situation in the next ten years, and in the next few years, the currency of the Celestial Empire will begin to appreciate, and the dollar will continue to depreciate.

And in the next few years, there will be very serious inflation in the Celestial Empire, and when that time comes, if anyone can buy as many ECUs as he wants at a price of 350 yuan, and an ESP system of 3500 yuan, then he will definitely be a great power.

According to Jin Xiaoqiang, in a few years, the price of Bosch ECU in China will not be lower than 500RMB, and the ESP system will not be lower than 4000 RMB.

So now that he has signed such a contract, it can be said that it is absolutely cost-effective, and in the future, the yuan will appreciate against the dollar, and the dollar will depreciate, and the money paid to Bosch at that time means that the more he buys, the more he earns.

Bosch is also overjoyed, with a $20 million order and a contract that can cost them tens of millions of dollars a year, but what they don't know is that in a few years, they will be forced into bankruptcy by this contract.

After all, no one would have thought that the wronged boss at the beginning would be able to make his automobile industry so big and so successful!

Also this time, Bosch had to send a special engineer to the Celestial Empire to help arrange the equipment, impart experience, and be responsible for training the staff, etc., after negotiating the details with the other party, Jin Xiaoqiang gave himself and Alice a few days off.

These negotiations lasted more than two weeks, and every day I struggled between the hotel and the Bosch headquarters, and I came to Germany once, and I didn't have time to go shopping.

Alice, who has long been full of yearning for Europe, has looked at her boss with resentful eyes several times, after all, that girl doesn't like to play?

What's more, when she followed Jin Xiaoqiang to speculate in futures, Alice had already become a little rich woman, who would have thought that now that she had come to the famous Europe, she didn't even have time to consume, which made Alice how willing she was.

In order to calm Alice's resentment, Jin Xiaoqiang gave Alice a three-day vacation, and he really needed to take a break, and during this time, he had to communicate with Wang Guoqiang and Li Qiming in China.

I don't know what these people did with the models he designed, but when he thinks of the car he designed, Jin Xiaoqiang is also quite worried.

After a video conference with Wang Guoqiang, Jin Xiaoqiang learned that these people are also fast, and they have already made a one-to-one scale clay model, which has been entered into the computer to build a three-dimensional model, and has carried out many design demonstrations and drills on the computer.

Now we are doing simple production work with the only equipment in hand.

To be honest, the equipment that Jin Xiaoqiang currently has, if it is said that such a car comes out, it is not impossible, after all, in his original gear factory, there are leveling machines and stamping machines.

It's just that the power is relatively small, and it can't form a streamlined production, and it can't produce a large number of vehicles, but if you say that the production of a dozen cars comes out, it's not impossible, it's just more time-consuming.

Moreover, he also has those high-precision machine tools from Yueben, although he only got two sets of these machine tools for Ding Weizhong and them to toss, but these two sets alone are enough to complete the production of dozens of engines and gearboxes.

Ding Weizhong and Yang Dingwei, as well as Wang Guoqiang and Li Qiming, they are all technical maniacs, not to mention that there is another technical controller Liu Xiaoliang who is always fanning the flames.

With so many tech maniacs together, looking at the design drawings of the whole car, if it is not produced, it is simply the same reason as making drunkards not drink, it is even worse than killing them.

Fortunately, Jin Xiaoqiang is more open-minded in this regard, so he has to let them toss, he not only encourages them to toss, but also wishes that they can toss a few more, it is best to wait for himself to go back, and he can drive the car he designed.

After all, he himself is a big boss, he doesn't want to, he has to do everything himself, let these people do it himself, you can also improve the ability of these people, in order to make them have a better development in the future.

After the Bosch Group negotiated with him, Jin Xiaoqiang's next company to go was in Stuttgart, which was Dür of Germany, which was well-known in car painting.

World-famous automobile companies such as Ford and Volkswagen have used their coating lines, and in the new century, the Celestial Empire has become Dürr's largest market.

Some people have even done an assessment that 13 million of the 17.5 million cars in the Celestial Empire are painted lines from Dürr.

With the experience of negotiating with Bosch and Kohler, the negotiations with Dürr went smoothly and soon a $60 million supply contract was finalized, as well as a forward contract for future expansion.

It seems that Jin Xiaoqiang has suffered a loss, but in fact, in the contract, he also dug a big hole for Dürr, as long as the products produced by his future automobile factory can be sold, then the last unlucky ones will definitely be these, it seems to be gentle and fair, but in fact, he is the most bloodthirsty German in his bones.

Jin Xiaoqiang doesn't understand why so many Chinese people like Kazakhstan, it is true that the quality of German mechanical products is indeed good enough, but don't forget that Germany is also one of the most unfriendly countries in Europe towards China.
