Chapter 290: Is It Okay to Send the East Color TV Production Line?
Red Star Pajero V33 rushed to the Red Mansion, Li Lu didn't even have time to change his clothes, and sat in the co-pilot in a dirty green military uniform.
After Ahmet and the others left, Huang Guanghui was put by Li Lu to the Red Star Defense Company to act as his communicator.
Huang Guanghui came to him, no need to ask, there was only one thing - there was news from Little Japan.
A few days ago, Mitsui Nohara called back, and Fuji Heavy Industries' people were delayed for two days on the road, and after calculating the time, it was almost this time to arrive at the dry port.
However, Huang Guanghui came to find it because there was news from Toshiba.
Obviously, Jiro Murakami and Hiroshi Tanimura had already communicated with the company's headquarters and had been absolutely given exact instructions. Li Lu even suspected that Fuji Heavy Industries had delayed for two days, and perhaps Toshiba was the culprit behind it.
For the sake of tens of millions of dollars in large orders, they do everything. After the completion of the entire transaction, it approached $40 million. In addition to the 32 million sets of eight sets of five-axis linkage CNC machine tool systems, Li Lu also took the opportunity to buy some other precision machinery and equipment that can cover the entire production process.
All the way to the Red Mansion, all the way to the Mitsui company office, Daoxiang Guzi was already standing downstairs waiting, under the street lamp, the shadow was very good-looking.
The car stopped steadily, Li Lu pushed open the door and got out of the car and strode over.
As soon as Daoxiang Guzi saw Li Lu's pants rolled up and dirty, his eyes widened, and there were even obvious traces of dirt on his shoulders. She's about to moan - it's so manly! Chinese men just have taste! Not as short as a man in little Japan!
"Where's the person?" Li Lu asked directly.
Daoxiang Guzi came back to his senses and hurriedly led over, "In the reception room, Mr. Li, please come here." ”
"No, you're busy with your going, I know how to go." Li Lu waved his hand and strode upstairs.
Daoxiang Guzi stuck out his tongue and stopped, looked back, and saw Huang Guanghui standing next to the car, walking over to ask a few words, but saw Huang Guanghui getting into the car and closing the car door, obviously unwilling to contact her.
She sighed helplessly, and had to go back to sleep in vain.
In the reception room on the second floor, Jiro Murakami and Hiroshi Tanimura were waiting, anxious and excited. I was anxious because I was afraid that Fuji Heavy Industries would suddenly arrive, and I was excited because I was going to negotiate a super large order of 40 million US dollars.
The $40 million in 1981 was the size of state-level trade, and in terms of economic efficiency and influence, it was not inferior to the billions of dollars in trade thirty years later.
Hearing the footsteps, they quickly stood up. Tanimura Hiromei, who was smoking, even hurriedly took out his cigarette and hurriedly tidied up his clothes.
Li Lu, who appeared in front of them, also surprised them - what kind of costume is this? Is this scruffy style now in vogue internationally?
Li Lu brought the door and explained with a smile, "I'm sorry, I just came from the farmland, you are so anxious, I just came over directly, hehe." ”
Both Murakami and Tanimura were a little dizzy - they had a hard time accepting that the buyers of the super big orders were rural farmers. But what are these worth, even if Li Lu is not wearing anything.
"Mr. Li, it is us who should be apologized, we have not thought it through and caused you trouble." Murakami and Tanimura bowed ninety-nine degrees in unison.
Li Lu waved his hand and sat down, and said, "Two, let's save the false courtesy." Talking about business, I have already received a call from Mitsui, and the people from Fuji Heavy Industries are estimated to be arriving at the dry port soon. ”
"Yes, yes, Mr. Lee." Jiro Murakami nodded hurriedly, took out a contract from his briefcase, handed it to Li Lu with both hands, and said, "Mr. Li, this is the outline of the contract, and the main details have all been written into the contract according to your intentions." If you don't have any other requirements, you can sign the contract now. ”
Tanimura said, "Yes, Mr. Li, we have brought an official seal with legal effect. Later, let's make an appointment to determine the details later, and finally go through your country's import procedures. The process on our side is already being prepared in China and can be started at any time. ”
In other words, as long as Li Lu signs his name and uses the official seal, the business will be completed.
He looked very carefully, sentence by sentence, pondering over and over again. In accordance with international trade practice, it is all in English. But Toshiba apparently didn't think much of it, and they prepared a separate Chinese version that customers could compare.
Fortunately, Li Lu is very familiar with the words and sentences of these international trade contract terms, and this kind of professional contract, Niu Jun's English master's degree may not be able to understand all of them. There are a lot of national trade laws and regulations involved.
In the first few years after Huaxia opened its door, why so many enterprises were cheated when engaging in import and export trade was because they were not familiar with international trade laws and regulations and did not understand how to play in this circle.
Not only that, Tanimura Hiroshi prepared all kinds of laws and regulations that could be used, stood beside Li Lu, and said, "Mr. Li, if you have any objections or don't understand something, please feel free to raise it, and I will answer it for you." ”
Li Lu nodded slightly, the sincerity of Little Japan is okay.
He watched it for a long time, and it was a matter of national importance, and he didn't dare to be the slightest sloppy, even if he felt the sincerity of little Japan. Forty or fifty million dollars is really nothing, and in another ten or eight years, you will not be able to buy such a machine tool with ten, forty or fifty million.
After more than an hour, Li Lu finally raised his head, and he glanced at Jiro Murakami and Hiroshi Tanimura with a serious expression. Jiro Murakami and Hiroshi Tanimura are nervous, like bettors waiting for the multimillion-dollar jackpot winner to be revealed.
Li Lu smiled suddenly, "An additional color TV production line and a full set of technical drawings will be given away, no problem, right?" ”
Jiro Murakami and Hiroshi Tanimura were stunned for a moment, and then the two laughed with relief, and Murakami said, "Of course it's no problem, Mr. Li, of course it's no problem." ”
Li Lu nodded slightly and smiled, "That's good, the color TV production line and a full set of technical drawings can be shipped over first." Let's go, follow me to the Red Star Factory and sign the contract. ”
"Okay, okay!"
Jiro Murakami and Hiroshi Tanimura were so happy that they were about to faint, so they packed up their things and hurriedly followed Li Lu out. If they knew that today's gift they casually promised would make Toshiba completely lose its leading position in the color TV market in a few years, they would regret it so much that their intestines would be green.
For Li Lu, in addition to the five-axis linkage CNC machine tool, the economic benefits of other incidental procurement of precision machinery are not as good as the huge profits brought by the color TV production line and a full set of technical drawings.
Where does Li Lu's money come from?
He can't take out the $40 million, unless he uses the part of the foreign exchange that the New Bright Factory and the Zhenxing Company are due. Most of the deposits of Iran's Puda Company and Iraq's Dharam Company belong to manufacturers, among which Xinguang Factory and Zhenxing Company take the lion's share. In the hands of Li Lu, there are only a few million dollars.
Don't forget, in the deal with Puda, Iran, Li Lu took all the risks, while the new bright factory and Zhenxing Company asked for a specified percentage of the total trade volume in foreign exchange.
It's good that Li Lu can leave a few million dollars in his hands!
Therefore, they have no other way than to use the foreign exchange of Xinguangchang or Zhenxing Company - Toshiba does not accept Hong Kong dollars, but operates foreign exchange through the Hong Kong branch, and such a large sum of money will definitely attract the attention of the relevant departments.
The foreign exchange of the revitalization company cannot be moved, and if you move today, their tank car will be blocked at the door of your company tomorrow.
It can only move the new bright factory.
Li Lu planned a very risky plan - to fight the time difference, and when the first batch of crude oil from Iran's Puda Company arrived and the oil trade with Mitsui officially began, he would be able to ease his strength.
Have the deposits not yet arrived? It's been there a long time ago! Li Lu kept it a secret and held on, which was why Wang Jiaqing urged him. He has been dragging it just for the five-axis linkage CNC machine.
If the East Window incident happens, he is in danger.
In order to get a five-axis linkage CNC machine tool, he can't take care of so much, and even these plans, he can't tell anyone, let alone discuss them with others, so he can only plan in his heart, and all the consequences are borne silently.
On such a cold winter night in the south, the Red Star Plant officially signed a procurement contract with Toshiba. The subject matter of the contract is eight sets of five-axis linkage CNC machine tool systems and five times the number of accessories, plus more than 20 pieces of other precision machinery and equipment, large and small, with a total contract amount of 10,000 US dollars.
The color TV production line and a full set of technical drawings were not written into the contract, and Jiro Murakami said that it would be shipped to the dry port in the shortest possible time. Li Lu was not afraid that they would not admit it, after all, the contract stipulated that after the first batch of machinery arrived at the dry port, the Red Star Factory would pay an advance payment of three million, and the rest would be paid within a year.
Toshiba is already satisfied with such conditions, after all, contracts with payment periods of up to three or five years are everywhere.
Holding the contract stamped with the big red seal, Jiro Murakami and Hiroshi Tanimura were very excited, Murakami clasped Li Lu's hand with both hands, and said, "Mr. Li, thank you very much, you are our closest customer of Toshiba." Mr. Li, if you have any needs in the future, we at Toshiba will do everything we can! ”
Tanimura Hiroshi also said excitedly, "Yes, Mr. Li, you are the most bold customer I have ever seen!" I will definitely urge the team of technicians and skilled workers, and will definitely organize the best personnel to come and help you train workers, please rest assured! ”
Li Lu smiled hehehe, "Well, I hope we have a happy cooperation." Of course, I also hope that we will have more opportunities for cooperation in the future. ”
He silently thought to himself, in a few years, the Yankees will kill you, you want to buy something good, and I really hurry up and finish it in these years.
"Mr. Li, we have been notified to set up an office in the dry port, which is also an after-sales service point, to provide you with the best quality service throughout the process." Jiro Murakami said with a smile.
Li Lu said unexpectedly, "Mr. Murakami, aren't you running business, why, don't you go to the Soviet Union?" ”
"No, Huaxia is a more dynamic market, and I will stay in Huaxia for a long time in the future." Jiro Murakami said with a smile.
If he hadn't won this super order, he probably wouldn't have won this opportunity.
"Hehe, congratulations."
