748. The Tattered King
"Oh? Tuition? What does this mean? ”
Li Yifan couldn't help but be interested in Kobayashi Nobuhiko's words, and the term "paying tuition" is a common habitual word for many enterprises in China.
It is often in a state-owned enterprise, when dealing with foreign enterprises, when it suffers losses, and often when it causes great losses, the leaders of the enterprises pay the tuition fees lightly, and they cover up their mistakes.
But in foreign countries, no matter what kind of company, there is no such thing as paying tuition, especially for a private entrepreneur like Nobuhiko Kobayashi.
"These are all a few years ago, because of the economic crisis, in Japan, there are many small and medium-sized business owners, unable to operate, the factory went bankrupt, I think there is an opportunity, so I go to their factory to dig for some obsolete goods, second-hand machine tools or something. At that time, I pondered, don't look at these machine tools are second-hand, in fact, the condition is quite new, so I bought it, and then I also through my friends, to the United States and Germany to go around, but a lot of good things, originally wanted to put these machine tools, in the re-repair, and then take to the market to buy, but how to think, I think too simple. ”
The corners of Kobayashi Nobuhiko's mouth hung a wry smile, it was obvious that his Jihua execution was not smooth, and the sales of these second-hand goods were not too smooth.
However, his words made Li Yifan interested all of a sudden.
"Oh? Kobayashi-san, can I take a look at these goods of yours? ”
When Nobuhiko Kobayashi heard Li Yifan say this, his eyes suddenly lit up, because of the economic crisis. He fights the principle of abandonment and self-take. That's why I thought of buying and selling these second-hand machine tools.
At that time, he had just returned to Japan from the United States. It is still in high spirits, and because when I was in the United States, I also tried to do some second-hand machine tool business, so I am still full of hope for this industry.
But after buying these machine tools, this is not the case.
These second-hand machine tools, in fact, strictly speaking, are not backward products. Although some of them are products from 10 years ago, they are all special in maintenance, and they can continue to be used smoothly.
Of course, there are also some machine tools with broken parts, and these machine tools can continue to be used as long as one part is replaced.
But the crux of the problem is that in today's rapid development of electronic and mechanical engineering, Shijie's major machine tool companies are innovating almost every year, and in developed countries such as Europe, America and Japan, where labor costs are relatively high, in order to save labor costs. Many companies are willing to purchase more advanced machinery products to replace manpower. So as to achieve the purpose of saving labor costs.
In this way, who wants these old machine tools, and those broken machine tools, in fact, it is not a trouble to repair, but damn it, the labor cost is too high.
Even in Japan, where labor costs are relatively low, if you repair a machine tool, the cost of repairing it, and even the cost of some machine tools, is equivalent to half of the cost of buying these machine tools.
At such a price, he can't accept it no matter what, not to mention that the second-hand goods he bought are not easy to buy at all.
Originally, he hoped to sell these machine tools to the third shijie country, which was not very developed in terms of processing capacity, but when these goods arrived, he found that this business was not so easy to do.
It stands to reason that this third shijie country with underdeveloped processing capacity on shijie has gone more, but how many are there who really have the ability to engage in machining?
South America, Africa or something don't have to be considered, people are not high machining industry at all, those places are the resource export places in the hearts of developed countries in Europe and the United States, although these machine tools in Europe, the United States, Japan and other developed countries do not look down, but if you buy those places, people simply do not let it.
What's more, people everywhere are very poor, even if you sell to them, you can't sell them at a good price, and if you don't add freight, you will have to lose money.
Not to mention Southeast Asia, where there are enterprises with European and American capital, their own entrepreneurs are not willing to engage in any machining at all, and in their view of rich resources, it is easier to engage in this thing than to engage in mining or planting to make money.
Come to think of it, the most haode buyers of these machine tools on shijie are only Huaguo, but first, he has no way in Huaguo, no channels, and the second is the same reason as before.
Although these machine tools are all looked down upon by developed countries such as Europe, the United States and Japan, if they are sold to China, it will be terrible.
Chinese people are different from those Africans and South Americans, they have their own perfect industrial system and their own R&D and design capabilities.
If these machine tools fall into their hands, as long as a little pondering for a few years, they can catch up in the machining industry according to these machine tools, and maybe even they can design their own advanced machine tools, which is definitely not what Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries want to see.
Therefore, Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries, the export control of these second-hand machine tools is still quite strict, in their opinion, these machine tools, than the most haode machine tools they are using now, are only a generation or half a generation behind.
For the machine tools exported to China, they prefer to maintain two generations or more of the distance, their maximum tolerance range is a gap of one and a half generations, if beyond this range, they feel not very acceptable.
Therefore, although Kobayashi Nobuhiko also knows that these machine tools are valuable to Huaguo, on the one hand, they suffer from the lack of channels and channels, and on the other hand, they are also out of the requirements of national security, so they did not sell these machine tools to Huaguo.
However, in the past few years, his life in Japan has not been too good, so he doesn't care about national security at all, and now there are still people who are willing to buy these machine tools, he doesn't care if you are Chinese, or Russian, as long as you can pay real money, he is willing to sell.
After all, these things have been in his hands for many years, and they don't count the funds that occupy him, and if they are put down like this, they can only be disposed of as garbage, and he is really unwilling to end up like this!
Now Li Yifan seems to be more interested in these waste machine tools, how can he not be happy, and immediately took Li Yifan to the front of those machine tools.
Unlike those brand-new machine tools, these machine tools are simply covered with large canvas, and as soon as he lifted the cover of the canvas that was some years old, he didn't care about the dust, and began to point to these machine tools and began to introduce.
"Mr. Li, you see this is Fanuc's J23, five years ago the absolute new model, this is from a metal parts processing factory that has just closed down not long ago, this factory used to be specially for Nissan, Mazda, such car companies to supply, this machine tool, can produce gears used on the transmission, this is a five-axis CNC machining center, although the data performance, and the current top products in Japan can not be compared, but in fact, for most of the current metal workpiece processing, it is enough, the size of his machining platform is ...... The length of the X-axis is ...... The maximum permissible tolerance range is ......"
Kobayashi Nobuhiko is worthy of studying electronic engineering, and the data of such a machine tool is introduced as soon as he opens his mouth, and Li Yifan looks at this second-hand machine tool that can be said to be brand new and can't help but sigh.
This machine tool is really a good thing, it can be seen that it has not been used many times, there is a strong smell of oil on it, and the maintenance is also very good, many key parts are soaked in butter, and then wrapped, it can be seen that the Japanese workers who used this machine tool are indeed very serious and responsible.
Such a machine tool may be backward in Japan, but it is definitely a good thing to get it to China.
Now in many domestic machining enterprises, the processing centers used are even products from Japan 20 years ago, but the effect is still leveraged, which shows that the quality of this Japanese product is indeed enough for 13.
This machining center, according to Kobayashi, is only five years old, even if there is a gap with the current top machine tools, but it is not too bad, but in some fields, some backward, but for the current industrial level of Huaguo, such a machine tool is enough.
After all, Huaguo's labor cost is cheap, and some places can not do machine tools, and manpower can make up for it.
And even if it is such a machine tool, I am afraid it is not easy to get it in China, if the Japanese government allowed these poorly managed enterprises, such machine tools, exported to China, it is estimated that those enterprises will not be unable to survive.
"Mr. Li, you are looking at this, this is from a company that specializes in supplying Fuji Heavy Industries, Fuji Heavy Industries you know, they are very unique in making cars, and the reputation of their products does not need me to say more. This machining center is DMG's, it is a little bit old, it has a history of eight years, but the real service life is only four years, and the remaining four years, this machine has been lying in my warehouse......"
Xiao Lin pointed to another machine tool and said to Li Yifan, Li Yifan also listened to his introduction in detail, and at the same time his heart was stirred, these things, in the eyes of Japan, Europe and the United States, are worthless rags, but if they are taken to China, they are definitely good things.
If they all eliminate such things, they will be a rag king, and they will be happy! (To be continued......)
