No matter what country you are in or what job you are in, hard work does not necessarily mean that you will be promoted and raised.

You work hard every day, work hard and do your job beautifully, and the credit is often not as big as doing a personal matter for the leader.

Of course, if you're a youkai with a background, that's a different story.

Toms, who is in his forties, has obviously seen these things as well.

Now that Chris has given himself the opportunity for a promotion and a raise, he must seize it.

Anyway, whether it is Schuler or Aida, it is not his family's business.

Even these press manufacturers refused to take the initiative to come over and ask him for a meal.

Do you still need to worry about it?

"Tang, who has the lowest price among these three manufacturers?"

Although he already had the answer in his mind, Tom felt that it would be good to make sure it was clear.

Don't be embarrassed and affect your prestige.

"The price of Dongying Huitian is the highest, and the price of Huaxia Jier and Nanshan is the lowest."

"But although Jiji and Nanshan have the lowest offers, their presses have not been used in any of Ford's factories."

"Given the schedule, I felt that Schuler might be the most suitable choice."

As the manager who handled this matter, Tang Jiguo had dealings with three equipment manufacturers.

Among them, Schuler and Jiji came over several times and asked him to eat and drink.

In Tang Jiguo's opinion, there is a good chance that this press order will be Schuler's.

Because the people in the stamping shop had already given him a hint.

Therefore, during this time, he did not participate in Schuler's dinner without any politeness.

even received "carefulness" from several people.

Now that Toms had asked about the press bidding, he was naturally going to say a few nice things about Schuler.

"Tang, Ford came to China and established a joint venture with Changan Automobile."

"Then we just want to do a good job in the Chinese market and want to make some achievements in China."

"For the purchasing department, it is our core responsibility to purchase parts and equipment that meet the requirements at a lower price."

"Since the prices of Jier and Nanshan are lower and can meet the requirements of the bidding, why can't we consider choosing to cooperate with them?"

"Chinese people, don't look down on Chinese people."

As soon as Tom said this, Tang Jiguo's face turned red.

He really didn't look down on Jiji and Nanshan.

People also invited him to dinner very enthusiastically, but he felt that the other party had no drama, so he didn't dare to accept other people's benefits.

So as not to cause a commotion when you get it.

Who knew it would turn out to be like this now?

Wouldn't it be fragrant to know that I wouldn't go to eat anything with Schuler, and go directly to drink Wuliangye with Jier's people?

Jiji's people are really, now that you have got Toms, you can tell me.

Even if you don't want to say it so bluntly, you can at least hint at it.

Hello, hello, hello, everyone.

Why be so embarrassed?

In an instant, many thoughts crossed Tang Jiguo's mind.

"Toms, in fact, when we are already considering the construction of the second phase of the stamping line, we have given priority to Jier and Nanshan."

"It's just that this time the schedule is tighter, and the press shop feels that Schuler's equipment is more trustworthy."

"It was with full respect for the opinion of the workshop that I decided whether to choose Schuler or not."

Tang Jiguo didn't want Toms to feel that he looked down on Huaxia's equipment manufacturers, and he didn't want him to think that he had anything to do with Schuler.

No matter what happened behind the scenes, Schuller was not popular on Toms's side, and Tang Jiguo saw this situation completely clearly.

"Shouldn't Huaxia enterprises have more advantages in terms of delivery schedules when they produce presses locally?"

Thomas didn't get angry, and continued to talk to Tang Jiguo in a good voice.

However, his meaning is very obvious.

"You're right, normally speaking, the delivery cycle of Huaxia enterprises must be shorter."

"This time, however, Schuler has also built a plant in China, and some of the presses will be imported from Germany and installed in China."

"So the schedule is also a lot faster than usual, and the gap with Jier and Nanshan is not so big."

Tang Jiguo continued to explain there.

However, Thomas didn't want to let him go so easily.

"Isn't the gap that big? Is there still a gap? ”

"In that case, why choose an equipment manufacturer with higher costs and longer delivery cycles?"

Tang Jiguo: ......

You've said everything, what do I say?

Tang Jiguo, who was full of regret in his heart, took a deep breath and said, "Toms, I fell into a misunderstanding of thinking before. I felt that Schuler was the press manufacturer of Ford Motor's American plant, and I felt that they were the most suitable equipment manufacturer. ”

"Now it seems that the situation is different in every country and region.

"In Huaxia, Jier and Nanshan are obviously the most suitable press manufacturers."

"We will contact various departments and convene a meeting to confirm the results of the bid evaluation of the press."

Originally, Tang Jiguo didn't have any special resistance to Ji Er.

It's just that I simply feel that the other party has no play.

Now that even the people at Ford Motor have no opinion, why should he be this villain?

The point is that he can't be a wicked man.

"Well, go ahead."

"Report to me in time if there is any situation."

"It is our bounden duty to support outstanding local enterprises in China."

Once again, Thomas emphasized what he meant.

If there is still an accident like this, he will probably be able to swallow Tang Jiguo alive.

……

Tang Jiguo's movements were fast.

No, he was worried that Toms had misunderstood him.

When the time comes, it will be difficult to be targeted by the boss.

Even if Changan Ford is a joint venture company, Thomas has no way to directly let Tang Jiguo get out, and there are many ways to put small shoes on him.

If you get a great benefit, then you will be wearing small shoes.

In the current situation, it is certainly not worth it.

Therefore, the next day, Changan Ford's purchasing department officially announced the bidding results with several press manufacturers.

And as soon as this result came out, Schuler immediately fried the pot internally.

"Xu, what's going on?"

"Didn't you say that the other party had already hinted that your press order was Schuler's?"

"Why isn't that the case when the results come out?"

Lucas's face was very ugly, and he directly called Xu Dacheng to his office, and then it was an output.

Xu Dacheng, who has not yet figured out the situation, does not dare to refute a word.

Only fearless explanations can be made.

"Lucas, I also went to have dinner with the other party's manager last week, and we are already discussing the specific delivery arrangements for the future."

"Now it's not us who suddenly announce the winning bid, there must be a shady scene here."

Xu Dacheng is also completely unclear about the situation now.

He was genuinely surprised by the result.

For this order, Schuler and Aida have already communicated, and the other party will cooperate with him to quote a relatively high price.

In fact, the other party kept its promise, and the price was 15 percent higher than Schuler.

But now Schuler still hasn't received the order.

"Jiji has never supplied stamping equipment to Ford, and this time let the other party enter this field, and there will be endless troubles."

"How do you tell me to report to HQ now?"

Lucas's heart shuddered at the thought of the anger at the headquarters.

I'm in trouble.

"I just called Changan Ford's procurement, and the other party just formulaically said that after a comprehensive evaluation of QCD, the combination of Jier and Nanshan has the most advantages, so I chose them."

"The choice of this press, the people on Ford's side have the greatest right to speak."

"Unless the folks at Ford relent, we can't afford to lose orders."

"As you said, Jiji has never supplied Ford cars, and they are unlikely to let Ford relent."

"But this time they came up with a cooperation project with Nanshan Technology Co., Ltd."

"I think it's definitely Nanshan who is behind it."

Xu Dacheng used the power of the wilderness in order to quickly transfer the contradictions.

Otherwise, his life will not be able to go on.

"Nanshan?"

"Nanshan again?"

"Didn't they have a large TDM press for body panels?"

"Why did Changan Ford choose them?"

Lucas now has a deep hatred for Nanshan.

Because of Nanshan's appearance, he has been scolded by the headquarters many times.

Now he has directly snatched the order he cares about the most.

Is it tolerable, or is it intolerable?

"You're right, Nanshan really has no experience in this area, and they just snatched a big order from Huitian some time ago, and they shouldn't have the capacity to correspond to Changan Ford's order."

"So this time they cooperated with Jiji, who is the best at this, and is the only press manufacturer in the world that can bring us some threats except for Huitian."

When it comes to professional things, Xu Dacheng still knows a lot.

"Xu, this time it can't be just like that."

"We must figure out what's behind the scenes and figure out what we're going to do next."

"Otherwise, if we do this again, we'll all have to fuck off."

Lucas panicked a little.

Seeing that Schuler has set up a factory in China, he is preparing to show his strength.

It turned out to be ......

"I'll book a flight in the afternoon and go directly to Shuangqing City, and I'll make sure the situation is clear."

Xu Dacheng felt that he was still on a business trip at this time.

Not only reflect their own efforts, but also hide from the storm.

……

"Aren't Nanshan and Jiji competitors?"

"Your Huaxia enterprises, when their own people deal with their own people, aren't they more ruthless than the other?"

"How can we work together this time?"

When Kato Ichiro said this, Liu Wenfei felt a little embarrassed.

But soon he didn't hear anything.

"Minister, I also felt a little strange when I heard the news."

"But after careful analysis, I think it seems understandable."

"For a long time, Nanshan's main focus is on PRG and TRF presses, especially in terms of PRG presses, they can provide PRG molds at the same time, which is very popular with some manufacturers."

"In terms of large-scale TDM presses, I haven't heard of any achievements in Nanshan."

"Although I don't know how they got together, there must be some exchange of interests behind it."

"It's even possible that they have reached some kind of private cooperation agreement like us and Schuler."

Seeing that Ichiro Kato was not angry, Liu Wenfei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Schuler didn't feel much pressure from Nanshan before, and he was watching our jokes last time."

"Okay now, everyone is laughing in fifty steps and laughing in a hundred steps, and we should be able to sit down and discuss how to deal with Nanshan."

"Liu Sang, when this wave of limelight passes, you make an appointment with Shuler's people, and we will discuss it carefully and see how to get Nanshan down."

"Otherwise, Nanshan is always so tormented, and our life will not be easy."

"You should also think about it, what else can we do to deal with Nanshan."

Ichiro Kato felt that he should join forces with Schuler to come up with a ruthless measure.

The best thing is to be able to dry down Nanshan!

……

"Manager Tang, thank you very much for your support to Jier and Nanshan."

"This time the situation is a bit special, and I'm very sorry for not fully reporting to you in advance."

After getting the press order from Changan Ford, Zhang Sheng personally took his subordinates to Shuangqing to visit Tang Jiguo.

On the Nanshan side, Zhang Fugui also came to cheer.

"It's nothing, we choose suppliers based on comprehensive consideration of all aspects of performance, and choose the most suitable manufacturer."

"Your press meets the bidding requirements, the cost and lead time are advantageous, and it is a matter of course to get an order."

In Tang Jiguo's heart, he actually has opinions about Jier and Nanshan.

You have a relationship, you are powerful, you said it earlier.

Why do you have to change the result when the result is clear?

It's a bit embarrassing to be in the company.

"Anyway, we do have some work that we haven't done well."

"If there is any situation in the future, we will take the initiative to report to you to avoid any misunderstandings."

Zhang Sheng knows how to be a man very well.

Knowing the situation this time, Tang Jiguo must be a little unhappy.

Of course, deep down in his heart, he can be regarded as having a new understanding of Nanshan.

When he learned that Jiji had won an order for a press from Changan Ford, he couldn't believe it.

The fruits of victory seem to have come a little easier.

Is Nanshan's influence on Ford already so great?

For this reason, he also called Cao Yang and asked him sideways.

However, Cao Yang would definitely not tell him that he once worked with the purchasing director of Ford Motor to make the "Toyota Motor Brake Door" and auto parts anti-monopoly investigation case.

"By the way, I remember that Nanshan seems to have an export parts business for Ford's headquarters, right?"

Tang Jiguo also guessed that the key to the problem this time was on the side of Nanshan Technology Co., Ltd., not Jier Machine Tool Factory.

Otherwise, Ji Er wouldn't have been thinking about himself all the time.

"Manager Tang, let me report to you."

"We in Nanshan are now the world's most important supplier of nut plates to Ford Motor, and the world's most important supplier of wheel bolts and wheel bearings."

"In terms of automotive bearings, some new cooperation is also being discussed."

"We also hope to have the opportunity to provide Changan Ford with high-quality and low-cost parts in the future."

Although Tang Jiguo is the person in charge of equipment procurement, he will not be in charge of Nanshan's parts business in the future.

But they are in the same office as the other buyers, and no one even knows when the position will be adjusted.

So naturally there is no need to offend people.

It's even necessary to have a good stutter.

"So, your boss has a good relationship with the Ford Purchasing Center, right?"

Tang Jiguo has never understood why Thomas supports Jiji and Nanshan.

Thinking about it, it can only be Nanshan who gets Thomas's boss.

And this boss should be on the side of the procurement center of the headquarters.

"Mr. Cao and Chris, the director of Ford's purchasing center, are good friends."

"Mr. Cao and Director Chris met in Detroit last month."

Such a good opportunity for the fox to fake the tiger, how could Zhang Fugui miss it?

Even if Cao Yang and Chris are not so familiar, they must make Tang Jiguo feel very familiar.

What's more, people are really familiar with each other.

Hearing Zhang Fugui say this, Tang Jiguo felt that he had finally figured out the situation.

Nanshan can go straight to the director of the purchasing center at Ford's headquarters, so it is very understandable that Toms's attitude has changed.

For monsters with backgrounds, if you don't give face to others, you just don't give face to the gods behind them.

Originally, Jier Machine Tool could get the people on the Changan Automobile side, and now Nanshan can get the people on the Ford Ford side.

So what kind of temper can Tang Jiguo have?

Next, Tang Jiguo's attitude also improved a lot.

In the evening, we went out to have a meal and sang songs.

After all kinds of services, the previous mustard is a turning page.
