Chapter 332: You must not be soft-hearted when slaughtering people
"Mr. Su, this ...... You're not kidding, are you? Huang Zhongni asked with a bitter face next to him, two years later, the daylily is cold, and forty percent of the money has been paid, and I will get the goods in two years, then I might as well wait for two years to buy it, it will definitely be cheaper than now.
"Who is joking with you, I didn't dare to take the order of 120 units if you didn't look at it, it's not that you have signed a contract with BAE, I won't take this order at all, if it's not that I'm ready to expand production, you will have to wait until three years later." Su Ming's face was helpless, and the expression on his face was even more depressed than theirs.
"Mr. Su, isn't the original delivery method like this?" Huang Zhongni felt that it was still Su Ming's reason, he had never agreed to sell Thor to Singapore, but now he signed a contract through the British, and he didn't dare to offend the British, so he came up with such a way to make things difficult for himself.
"It wasn't like that, but there were too many protesting customers, and everyone was asking for delivery according to the order and size of the order, what can I do." Su Ming frowned, as if he was very distressed by the problem of many orders.
"Mr. Su, let's not talk about it successively, our order is the latest, and we don't have any opinion on this, but what do you say about this size?" Huang Zhongni continued to ask, at this time, Zhang Zhixian was already standing there with a pale face, not saying a word, feeling teased by Su Ming, he was a dignified deputy minister, to suffer this kind of humiliation, he really wanted to say to Su Ming, this order is not counted, but the money has been paid so much, and no one will give him a refund, and now he understands that there is a problem in the contract.
"In a period of time, the gap is more than an order of magnitude of orders priority, for example, you are dozens of units, compared with dozens of orders, if there are more than 100 orders, you must give priority to other people's orders." Su Ming tried to explain in detail, as if it had been premeditated, rather than specifically targeting them.
"Mr. Su, you see, we are all Chinese, is there no other way to think of it?" Huang Zhongni had no choice but to play the same kind of card, at first they didn't think so, they felt that they were superior to those people in China who had not seen the world and had no pioneering spirit.
"Unless it's the UK and South Africa orders that are willing to give you a share of the production, most of the production is now concentrated in their orders." Su was obviously very patient and very reluctant to explain to them.
"Xiao Huang, let's go, find a way for the British." Zhang Zhixian was angry when he saw Su Ming's exaggerated performance, from the contempt of arranging food and drink to the current deception, he didn't take them seriously at all.
"Goodbye, Minister Zhang, go all the way." Su Ming sent these people out with a smile on his face, Cut, a small deputy minister dares to throw his face at me, if I don't slaughter you this time, I'm sorry for my smiling face, and after turning his head, Su Ming said fiercely.
On the afternoon of the next day, the two sides came to Su again as if they were the same, Su Ming thought about it for a while, and decided to still receive them in the order of yesterday's reception, and once again put the Singaporeans behind, the Singaporeans saw that Italy came yesterday and did not negotiate, and came again today, it must have raised the conditions again, in case Italy intervenes again, according to the rules Su Ming said yesterday, Singapore will not have to be more behind, so he strongly asked Su Ming to negotiate first, Su Ming smiled and refused, Who told you to come a little later than others?
He said that yesterday he urgently contacted the Spanish side, and after consultations between the two sides, it has been decided that the two countries will authorize the Galileo company to develop the carrier-based Thor, and the two countries will provide it with a research and development cost of 100 million US dollars and a purchase order of more than 200 aircraft in the later stage, so that the negotiator will become a matter between the Su and Galileo companies, and the Italian Ministry of Defense has retreated into the background, only providing financial support and order guarantees for the Galileo company.
Two hundred is okay, Su Ming only thought about why the Italians wanted to pull Spain, because Spain also has a light aircraft carrier "Prince of Asturia", if they are not pulled now, Spain may have to turn to the British side for procurement, because the light aircraft carrier equipped with Thor can greatly enhance the aircraft carrier's air defense and air strike capabilities, compared to the Sea Harrier, Thor is much stronger.
The president of Galileo proposed a new cooperation plan, that is, Su and it for equity exchange, Galileo is a part of the state-owned company, and the Italian political axe does not have a controlling stake, but like the United Kingdom, there are regulations to limit the shares held by foreign capital, but one thing that can be done is that the exchange of shares is not counted, because in their opinion, the exchange of shares is a very fair thing, you hold me, I also hold you.
Galileo is willing to take out 20% of the shares to exchange with Su, and the specific number of shares to exchange needs to be accounted for, but the other party said that he hopes to take into account their technical advantages in the accounting, and if Sue asks to enter the board of directors, then the other party also asks to enter the board of directors, even if it is a non-executive director.
Su Ming thought about it for a while, or decided to take this share, after the two sides cross-sharehold, and then the exchange of technical levels has rules to follow, and this is also the first step of Su's expansion, unlike the military enterprises in the United States, most of the military enterprises in Europe are in the hands of the state, or state-owned holdings, or state-owned partial holdings, to be able to enter a company means to open a gap, and then it is much easier to enter other companies.
As for the other party's own shares, there is no need to worry at all, with the scale of Su's power, it is good that Galileo can exchange for two percent of the shares, and it will not affect anything at all, Su Ming immediately agreed, so that the financial departments and legal departments of the two sides can start to contact.
This time the negotiation between the two sides was very smooth, the three parties got their own place, after the end everyone smiled, so that the Singaporeans waiting outside were frightened, it seems that people have reached an agreement, but they don't know how large the order is, and the impact does not affect their own delivery.
After going back yesterday, I negotiated with BAE System Company, but the negotiation did not have any effect, BAE Company said that since the two sides have signed the contract, it must be executed in accordance with the contract, you feel that there is a problem with the contract, but resort to law, cancel the contract, for the delivery of the problem, BAE Company said that there has been a problem with Su's delivery, they are also the injured party, and there is nothing they can do, I hope that Singapore can negotiate with Su's and think of solving this problem.
It seems that the BAE company has no way to take the Su family, and now the Singaporeans have no recruitment, and they originally wanted to put pressure on the Su family through the channels of the Chinese side, but when they inquired about it, they learned that Su Ming had a conflict with the Chinese side some time ago, and recently went underground to immigrants, and finally thought about it or it was more appropriate to come here.
Su Ming didn't complain about more difficulties, and directly told the other party that he had received orders from Spain and Italy just now, and now the delivery form is even more tense, what are you going to do here? Huang Zhongni originally wanted to ask what kind of delivery form the orders from these two countries were, but after thinking about it, he didn't speak.
With the strength of the two countries, the order will not be less than a hundred when added together, then there is no doubt that it must be the first priority of others, and yesterday there was only one Italy, and now there is one Spain, it must be that the order of the Italian family cannot impress people, thinking of this, Huang Zhongni looked at Zhang Zhixian, and it seems that the only way to throw out the final solution is to throw out.
"Mr. Su, after our instructions and discussions, we agreed to support you for a certain amount of money in exchange for the conditions of priority delivery, what do you think?" After muttering a few times to each other, Huang Zhongni put forward his own conditions.
"This." Su Ming groaned, looking a little tempted, and then said in embarrassment: "If we do this, won't it affect our business reputation, we can't do this." Su Ming shook his head desperately.
"Mr. Su, this has nothing to do with business reputation, I will pay you a certain amount of overtime pay in exchange for your extended working hours, what we want is the increased output, which does not conflict with the normal output." Huang Zhongni saw that Su Ming's attitude was not so resolute, and he had a bottom in his heart, it seems that the other party is not particularly firm, and he should be able to impress the other party, but the amount is estimated to be larger.
"Lieutenant Colonel Huang, this statement is not enough to explain our unfair and just treatment of customers, once it leaks out, it will bring us a great adverse impact, and a small fee cannot make up for our losses at all." Su Ming still refused, but his attitude was further relaxed.
"As long as all of us present keep it secret, how can it be leaked, Mr. Su, I hope you can consider our sincerity, we have always hoped to have this epoch-making advanced weapon from the beginning of Thor, if it is equipped, if the effect is very good, we will have a second order." Huang Zhongni was actually angry in his heart, I haven't seen the procurement of weapons to make it difficult for us to become like this, that is, to buy American weapons, and I didn't toss to this, it's really a villain, now Thor has no alternative products, and when there are alternative products, see who is willing to pay attention to you.
"Well, well, hopefully we can both keep this a secret." Su was obviously moved by the other party's flickering.
"Okay, let's talk about the cost." Huang Zhongni's face was full of smiles, and the two sides started negotiations on the cost issue, and the total amount plan proposed by the Singapore side was rejected by Su Ming at the beginning, and then the cost plan for each unit, the Singapore side started from 150,000 US dollars per unit and increased to 500,000 US dollars, Su Ming still said that it was not enough.
Su Ming's price startled the Singaporeans as soon as he opened his mouth, one million US dollars per unit, which is equivalent to needing to pay Su Ming an additional 78 million US dollars to be able to get his own goods, this figure is a bit too exaggerated, originally they bought it a little more expensive, plus this cost, wouldn't it become a big injustice.
But the initiative is in the hands of Su Ming, no matter how proficient they are in the art of negotiation, the final one is only reduced to 800,000 US dollars, which is basically equivalent to 1 million Singapore dollars, after thinking about it, Zhang Zhixian nodded and agreed, tens of millions is not a big problem for Singapore, Temasek Holdings and Singapore Political Axe Investment Company control hundreds of billions of US dollars, but business still has to be taken care of.
Singapore's favor for Thor In addition to Thor's excellent surname Neng, there is also a very important factor that Thor can achieve vertical take-off and landing, which is very useful for Singapore's air defense, because Singapore's territory is too small, and the plane can fly to people's airspace with an acceleration from takeoff, so Singapore's planes always fly to the sea first, and then turn around to conduct air patrols, but even so, they are always accused by Malaysians of violating their airspace.
After the two sides reached a cooperation agreement, they found the atmosphere that should exist between the guests of honor, Su Ming also entertained people well, how can they also send money to themselves, and when signing the agreement, Su Ming put forward a clause to prevent technology transfer, last time Qatar handed over a Thor to the CIA, which almost caused big trouble for Su, but when Qatar was held responsible, Qatar very happily took out 160 million US dollars in compensation, looking at the strength that people didn't care, Su Ming felt that twenty times the compensation was a bit less, so the contract signed by Singapore, Su Ming directly wrote a hundred times, to see who would dare to hand over Thor to others, he was still soft-hearted and asked for less.
Thinking of this, Su Ming suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if the after-sales service personnel sent by the company to Namibia did not report the inspection report according to the specified time, could it be that something was wrong? After sending off the Singaporeans, Su Ming began to transfer files.
Namibia's Thor due to the very small number of sorties, plus the dispatch is also a flight to the sky and come back, so according to their attendance, the inspection and operation record time was extended to once every three months, in the middle because of the Namibian political axe requirements extended once, and this time the personnel sent over have not handed over the report for half a month, and there is no contact with the company.
Something went wrong, there was definitely a problem, Su Ming put down the record, and immediately asked people to contact Namibia to ask what was going on, and at the same time asked the operatives to be ready to act, ready to go out at any time, rescue the personnel on the side, and snatch back Thor, Thor doesn't know if it's there.
