Chapter 403: Price Advantage?

The cold wine party turned into a cold cocktail party.

An old-fashioned white good half-sleeved shirt with a three-point beauty at her side......

Between arm rubbing, one hand must be in the pocket, tactical pressure gun!

If it's a more intimate occasion, forget it.

In front of the public, it is still watched!

Walking on crutches, Sean who was standing beside Bi Zhengchun tried to hold back a smile.

When Bi Zhengchun was chatting, his eyes were always observing Sean's face, and he always felt that this guy actually knew everything, and he was deliberately watching everyone's jokes!

If you don't look at that obvious white face, you can't help but think of him as a Chinese.

Of course, this is Morocco, and now Sean, who is in charge, Bi Zhengchun can only sigh helplessly, the blonde beauty who is holding his hand is a junior, but his daughter ......

Daughter or something, why is it so awkward!

"Since the country is open for exchanges, it is certain that Western ideas will enter the mainland, and the impact will be beyond imagination." Sean held a wine glass, and Harry Berry, who was dressed in a swimsuit, held his arm, "I know that many people in the East now yearn for the Western world, yearn for the United States, and are vying to go abroad, mostly young people. ”

As he spoke, Sean raised his hand and pointed at those beauties, and then looked at Bi Zhengchun, "Follow the local customs, if you don't want to become an outlier who is excluded by others, then those girls who go abroad will become like this." ”

"I call them easy girls!"

Bi Zhengchun's face is ugly, he really has a daughter...... Thinking that if his daughter would become such a bad and unruly appearance, Lao Bi's head began to smoke.

Out of a fart country, and then shout out the leg discount!

Sean successfully shattered a woman's dream of going abroad.

After chatting for a while, Bi Zhengchun still remembered the purpose of their visit, and gradually pulled the topic back, "Sean, what do you think about sales, starting with official procurement?" ”

"Official procurement?" Sean feels like he's misheard, the official purchase of vans?

Crazy!

"You don't think that a product will be sought after after the official set an example, right?" Sean smiled and spread his hands.

"If there is something good at the top, it will be very bad at the bottom." Bi Zhengchun said as a matter of course.

"That's right, the question is, who's on this?" Sean shook his head with a smile and said: "In the east, it is official, this is because of the cultural official-based thinking, and the effect of official promotion is very good, but in capitalism, it has never been official!" ”

Bi Zhengchun was stunned for a moment, and then understood that their thinking had inertia, and it was natural to use the East to apply the West, shook his head, and asked again: "Is it capital?" ”

"It's a bit general." Sean shook his head, "In the West, 'up' is very broad, the old aristocratic class, including the royal families, European aristocrats, and old capitalists. ”

"There are also emerging capitals, political families, and political upstarts."

"It could also be an idea, a trend, a racial idea,...... A lot. ”

"The social structure of the West is more complex, and it will not be like the East, there is only one concept, everything is inferior, and only being an official is high." Sean smiled and shrugged.

"It's all inferior, only reading is high!" Bi Zhengchun corrected.

"That's because you can be an official by studying, well, I'm not one of those foreigners who doesn't know anything." Sean stretched out his hand and patted Bi Zhengchun's shoulder, "It's better to build missiles than to sell tea and eggs, so isn't the one who makes missiles studying?" ”

"Yes, it's not reading, it's just a craft, just like an ancient master, no matter how miraculous it is, in the final analysis, it's just a strange skill, and he can't be an official, so it's a matter of course that he might as well sell tea and eggs."

Bi Zhengchun's face was a little dark, and Sean shrugged, "Okay, let's not talk about these conceptual things, let's get down to business, if you can come to Morocco again, then you are sure to form a joint venture." ”

"Yes, you are an oriental, and I won't hide it from you." Bi Zhengchun cleaned up his mood and nodded, "We also have some companies abroad, but they are all in the nature of assistance and have political significance, and this cooperation with Sean is a simple business behavior, and everything is based on commercial standards." ”

"Crossing the river by feeling the stones." Sean nodded, "Then let's be more business, I'll talk about the requirements." ”

"The initial is to set up a company to carry out a new sales model, Automobile Sales Service Shop 4S, a four-in-one automobile sales company integrating vehicle sales, spare parts, after-sales service and information feedback."

"I call it a 4S store."

"Fourth son shop?" Bi Zhengchun repeated, "It's really a new model, and we don't have any problems." ”

"Okay, let's talk about the share ratio, what do you want?"

"The new sales model, we are in a learning mentality, the pursuit is not a controlling stake but how much experience can be learned, so, the shares are dominated by you, how about 4:6?" Bi Zhengchun said with a smile.

Sean smiled and shook his head, "The market is mine, the channel is mine, the business philosophy is mine, I am not short of funds, I only need to simply import cars from Hafei, so give me a reason to give up 4% of the shares." ”

"Uh......" Bi Zhengchun was a little embarrassed, Westerners speak too directly!

"And how much do you say?"

"I'll give you 2 percent, the reason is friendship, this is to show goodwill, not that I have this need, Suzuki's shareholders have GM, and GM's shareholders have Rockefeller, whether it is technology or production line, I want it is a matter of one sentence." Sean directly pointed out, of course, things are definitely not that simple.

Bi Zhengchun lowered his head and pondered slightly, the tone set before coming was that cooperation must be promoted, even if it was a loss.

To suffer a loss is to take advantage, for the East, this is a new attempt, whether it succeeds or fails, it will learn some experience, state-owned enterprises, making money has never been the most important, serving the country and serving the collective.

So......

"Thank you very much Mr. Sean for your help, I have always said that you are an old friend of the Chinese people, and the Chinese people will not forget you." Bi Zhengchun said solemnly.

"I hope so." Sean replied with a smile.

"Speaking of help, we have a small request, that is, can we increase the proportion of Chinese personnel in the company's personnel composition."

"Hehe, how much is appropriate." Sean doesn't care too much about this, the Chinese are also very good, smart, hard-working, obedient, and don't make trouble when they work overtime.

"As many as possible, it can be regarded as the Chinese side's commission training and learning personnel, and the Chinese side is responsible for the salary."

"I understand that the necessary locals are still needed, and I will try to help you, about 70% of the middle and lower levels of the company." Sean seemed to have made up his mind.

The First Cause of All Worlds

Bi Zhengchun seemed very happy, and everyone agreed that this aspect was much more important than how many shares they occupied.

"...... at the top?"

"No, the management philosophy of the East is not applicable to Western society, and in order for the company to operate normally, up to 30% of the senior management can hire Chinese personnel." Sean shook his head, this is really not his difficulty, the management philosophy of the Orient that laymen command insiders is really a headache.

"As for the distinction in terms of wages, I don't think it's good, as if I am discriminating against Chinese people."

"No, no, no." Bi Zhengchun hurriedly shook his head, "You don't have to mind this, in terms of salary, we will bear it." ”

"Am I short of money?" Sean looked disgruntled.

"It's not about money, Mr. Sean, if it's really according to your salary system, it's going to be a disservice to us." Bi Zhengchun said with a very serious expression: "Now the domestic salary is about 400 a year, and the temporary workers are about 230, if the salary of these people who go abroad to work is really calculated according to your standards, more than 1,000 US dollars a year, what does this make the workers who still stay in the domestic factories think?" ”

Sean blinked, the staff of the United States, the salary is at least more than 1,000 a month, not a year.

"We are a developing country, cheap labor is our advantage, it is this advantage that makes our products competitive enough, workers' wages are high, so how to ensure the profits of state-owned enterprises."

"This will break the wage structure system, which is a heavy injury."

Raising workers' wages is a harm to the enterprise, and after summing up, Sean swallowed a mouthful of saliva and nodded heavily, with a big affirmation written on his face, "What you said is too right, and the understanding is too profound!" ”

The capitalists don't dare to be so whimsical, this realization is simply amazing!

"In the United States, because of the excessive increase in workers' wages, it has led to a large outflow of manufacturing, a very poor employment environment, a high unemployment rate, chaotic law and order, and social instability!" Sean grabbed Bi Zhengchun's hand and sighed with emotion, "This is terrible, you must learn a lesson and resolutely keep the wages of workers unchanged for 100 years!" ”

"Is work just about making money? Parochial! Sean's words were loud, "Work overtime for the rise of China!" ”

Bi Zhengchun blinked, this sounds like a very mainstream thought, but I don't know why, I always feel that something is wrong?

"Just according to your requirements, I will cooperate with you to work, of course, after all, it is to work for our company, and the salary is still paid by us, well, soft sister coins, directly in China." Sean said along the way: "As for my stay in Morocco, I will arrange staff dormitories and canteens, and I will also cooperate with local medical institutions in medical treatment to absolutely solve all the worries of Chinese personnel who come to Morocco to work!" ”

With this salary system, Sean feels that it is actually quite good to hire all Chinese personnel.

It's really not his capitalist fetish attack, Dongfang's own experts have said so, what else can Sean do?

He's just a capitalist, so what bad can he have.

The share ratio has been discussed, the employment and wage system have been discussed, and the rest is the price of vehicle imports.

"We all agree on the price, 35,000 RMB." Bi Zhengchun's face was calm, but his eyes secretly glanced at Sean.

"Gift crab?" Sean's face was full of shock, "Are you kidding, I bought this kind of rag for $11,600, and that's not counting the import tariffs, the investment cost, labor cost, and profit of the fourth son's store, so wouldn't I have to sell it for $15,000 to start?" ”

"Moroccans are crazy to buy this stuff for $15,000?"

"Uh...... I said yes, that's the domestic selling price. Bi Zhengchun's face was a little embarrassed, 35,000 is the unified sales price in China.

With a salary of more than 30 yuan a month, the car can be sold for 35,000 yuan, which is also strange.

"Well, our domestic selling prices are generally higher than export prices." Bi Zhengchun added, "There is a tax rebate for exports. ”

Sean pouted, there was no need to tell him this kind of prevarication to the people.

During this period, the prices of domestic products were higher than those of foreign countries, and they were much higher, but it was not a tax issue.

In the 80s, smuggling was rampant, Panyu, Nansha, Wenzhou, Weihai......

From TVs, washing machines, and tape recorders to watches and sunglasses, you can make a lot of money by taking the goods directly at the normal price abroad and shipping them to the east for wholesale.

Those who dump the goods will purchase from these places and make a lot of money back in the city, which is still cheaper than the similar domestic goods of the supply and marketing cooperatives.

The labor cost is more than 30 times lower than the book, and it is more than 30 times lower in all aspects of the product, but the price is 1-3 times more expensive than the original foreign one.

"You know, it's not that I don't know anything about the east, but I actually don't understand, why is the final product so expensive when your labor cost is dozens of times lower?" Sean asked curiously: "And on the basis of such high profits, why are many factories still losing money?" ”

"Uh...... We are a state-owned enterprise, and we have to pay the wages of retired workers. Bi Zhengchun didn't know how to explain it to Sean, and he was talking about Hanhu.

"That's not right, this is at most double the labor cost, but you are dozens of times lower than us." Sean shook his head, I know that one plus one equals two, you can't fool me!

"Well, there's a lot of perks, it's cheap, medical reimbursement is given, well, yes, that's it." Bi Zhengchun nodded stiffly.

Sean pouted, he didn't know the level of medical care and the standard of living.

It's okay to ask here, and to ask again is to expose the short.

In fact, decades later, many times it is similar, and the topic of shopping cannot be avoided when going abroad, well, it is the same shopping as sweeping goods, not only luxury goods, but also many products are cheaper than those in China.

For example, pure original cars are also cheaper and much cheaper abroad, because of the high import tax, in order to protect car companies......

The market is changing technology, and the market is giving, but there is no development in technology.

If you have protection, you can make money, so why invest large sums of money to improve technology?

It's not good to have money to do something, to invest in research and I don't know if I can research the technology, is there a disease?

Can you wait, wait for someone else to research it and use it?

Don't say anything about using someone else's patent, it's expensive.

Whose patents are not blown by the wind, they are all researched from scratch with a large amount of real money, who has no cost?

Who took your hand and didn't let you study?

Not to mention that there is no platform for the computer system to be researched, and there is no supporting software, and it is useless to research it.

This kind of difficulty has been talked about for a long time, and Hongmeng only ran in the laboratory before it was installed, so isn't that money?

(ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~

To get back to the point, Shawn will never do 35,000 soft girl coins anyway.

"I need a reasonable price." Sean said with a blank face.

"30,000?" Bi Zhengqing said tentatively, saying that it doesn't matter if he makes money or not, but, as we all know, Sean is very generous.

Sean squinted and didn't bother to speak.

“2.8?”

"$3,800, CIF price, no matter how high it is, I can't accept it." Sean gives a price, which he calculates after investigating.

And left some profit points for Hafei's side.

If he is ruthless, he can compress it to 3,000 US dollars, and he is sure that Hafei will also endure it, and it is better to earn foreign exchange through exports.

Due to some special reasons, except for some parts that need to be imported, a small part of the spare parts are purchased locally, and the rest of Hafei is all self-produced!

They even have their own power plant, their own hydraulic forging machine, electronic manufacturing, including glass production lines, which can be produced in-house even as small as a screw.

And these factories have greatly increased their costs due to the lack of operation.

If procurement channels are opened and market competition is introduced, the cost can be reduced to less than $2,500 at the current wage level.

This price is already lower than Hafei's own bottom line, of course, there is still a certain distance from the bottom line given by the Ministry of Industry, Bi Zhengqing did not agree on the spot.

As soon as I came up, I was bargained by more than half, and I promised on the spot that there would be ghosts.

The matter can be done here, and business negotiations, no matter how fast they are, cannot be done in a single reception, especially on the Chinese side, and we must listen to everyone's opinions.

At this time, the cruise ship has sailed far away, and after a period of familiarity, coupled with the language barrier, many people are not so restrained at the beginning.

Anyway, these women don't understand what to say.

Sean raised his hand and made a gesture, and immediately a band came out and started playing, a more soothing piano music, the atmosphere should be fried slowly, it will scare these guys if it is too hot.

"Beauties, move, and entertain our guests." Sean shouted in French.

Immediately, the beauties began to stick on and dance.

Singing and dancing lightly, the beauties who kept interspersing in the crowd brought a glass of wine.

Cocktails, whiskeys, wines, liqueurs......

Mixed up, time passes little by little, from restrained to relaxed, from sober to intoxicated, from serious to relaxed and laughing, from the slow three who keep their distance to the veneer who writhes their limbs......

The music is accompanied by the lights, the wine is accompanied by the beauty, and the atmosphere gradually becomes agitated.

Hoohoo hahaha!

Sean didn't plan to go back, and was going to spend the night at sea today.

I have to use this to test the cadres!

What an evil demon king!

The cruise ship is borrowed from the Moroccan royal family, and in addition to various entertainment facilities, there are a total of 12 rooms up and down, which are designed to be far away from each other, plus top-notch soundproofing design.

It's so much fun!

The spring breeze blows the earth overnight, and the peach blossom source is looking for a fairy tale......

When I woke up again, the boat was already on the shore.

Two days later, Bi Zhengqing came with news that the share ratio was 2:8, the personnel match was 70%-30%, and the CIF price was 3,800-4,150 US dollars, and the Chinese side was responsible for transportation.

For details, Sean will send a lawyer to negotiate with them.

In fact, the 80% of the shares are not all taken by Sean, and the other investor is the Moroccan Investment Group.

The investment group came up with $2.8 million, and the top eight cities in Morocco took out a total of 14 plots, accounting for a total of 35% of the company's shares.

Sean owns 25 percent of the investment group, has not spent a penny from start to finish, and accounts for more than half of the total shares of the new company.

Perfect!

In fact, 14 are not worth much, they are not in the center of the city, and Sean has positioned several cars in the countryside, at the junction of urban and rural areas, self-employed households in the city, and gangsters......

Ahem, it looks like there's something weird mixed in.

However, the van is indeed very suitable for gangsters, with a large throughput per unit time, maximizing the release of attack power, plus the price is cheap, and it is not distressing to be detained, and the injured can lie down at critical moments, which is convenient for sending to the hospital.

Perfect!

Leaving the construction of the fourth son's store, publicity and promotion, and advertising shooting tasks to the investment group, Sean turned around and went to Libya again.

The cargo ship carrying planes and weapons from the east arrived, and for the first time it was received, Sean was to be present.

To Sean's regret, he was disappointed that no one robbed him.

He was accompanied by a large number of Chinese staff.

Rocket artillery and recoilless guns are all purchased through regular channels in accordance with civilian parts.

Professionals are needed to assemble it here, and Sean doesn't expect Kadazuo or to hire someone from Libya to assemble it.

He would rather hire Chinese personnel for a short period of time, not to mention that the salaries of the Libyan people are too high, and the work attitude and assembly accuracy are also worrying.

Habitual!

After a short stay of three days and the completion of the handover mission, Sean left everything behind and took off again to return to the United States.

The HR manager needed for the umbrella has finally been found, and Sean wants to go back and take a look!

……

Van Wick, a former member of the Marine Corps, was 38 years old when he retired from the army, with the rank of major.

His father was a lawyer, his uncle was a councilor in his city, and his grandfather was also in politics, and his family was well-off, and after retiring from the army, he entered school and earned a bachelor's degree in law and administration from Columbia University.

After graduation, he engaged in administrative management, and after 3 years, he transferred to a human resource management position, now 53 years old, with rich management experience.

When Sean saw people, his first impression was very good, his silver hair was meticulously combed, his waist was straight, he was wearing an ordinary military uniform, with a gentle smile on his face, and his hands were thick and powerful.

Sean didn't ask a word about management, and if he did, he didn't understand.

Sean is concerned with his family, his relationship with family members, his children's situation, his political leanings.

Those who have families have reverence......

Ahem, of course, Sean had no intention of threatening him with his family.

Serious company!

"Who do you think will win the next term between the two parties?" Inside the Umbrella military base in Newark, Sean chatted with Van Wick while shooting targets.

"Elephant Party, our whole family is a staunch supporter of the Elephant Party!" Van Werk said with a look of certainty.

We talked about the Elephant Party, the situation in Southeast Asia, the situation in the Middle East, war, peace, ...... Overall, Sean is quite satisfied.

The emergence of the head of the personnel department means that the reorganization plan of the umbrella can be officially promoted.

Before that, though, Sean has a few things to deal with as soon as possible.

That is, the umbrella will be cut, and those old teams who can't see the light will be independent.
