Chapter 602: Reparations
Longteng headquarters. ()
Chu Hao and Uncle Shuai sat opposite each other, and the two cups of fragrant tea in front of the table were wafting with a faint light smoke, which seemed to cover the faces of the two of them with a thin veil, and they couldn't see it really in a hazy way.
After a long time, Chu Hao couldn't bear it at first, and asked, "Uncle, if you call me here, won't you just invite me to tea?" ”
Uncle Shuai reluctantly looked at the tea leaves that were spinning and jumping in the cup, and then glared at Chu Hao angrily, as if he was blaming Chu Hao for breaking his Yaxing.
"I found out that you kid has really been a businessman for a long time, not to mention anything else, this ability to pretend to be garlic has risen greatly, I don't believe that you kid is a goblin, will you not know what I called you here for?"
Chu Hao smiled wryly, when Uncle Shuai said this, he couldn't pretend anymore.
I don't know, but he can probably guess a little.
After all, there hasn't been much going on lately, and that's the titanium alloy.
"People who have stuck their necks for so long, it's time to work hard for others, after all, everyone has come to the door. Uncle Shuai said slowly.
"Uncle, what you are talking about is that Toyota, Boeing, and Airbus asked Huapan to supply them with titanium alloys, it's not that Huapan is unwilling to supply them, but the production capacity is limited and the supply is not available, so I can't complain about this. Chu Hao said to himself.
Uncle Shuai glared at Chu Hao, "If you pretend again, I'm not asking you to satisfy all their titanium alloys, give them a part first, and let them deal with it." ”
Uncle Shuai's words have already been said so clearly, Chu Hao will not hide it, "They have joined forces with ArcelorMittal Group to deal with Huapan, and now they say that they will supply titanium alloy to them, and I am too easy to bully." ”
Seeing that Uncle Shuai came forward to be a lobbyist, Chu Hao knew that it seemed that Toyota was really anxious and couldn't sit still.
But it's also said that Toyota's use of inferior titanium alloys has been fermenting on the Internet, and it is getting more and more intense.
But the only key to solving the problem has always been in the hands of Huapan.
As long as Huapan does not supply titanium alloy to Toyota for a day, then this matter will not be over.
Uncle Shuai looked at Chu Hao a little helplessly, since he handed over this errand to him above, he knew that this was not a good errand, he would not know who Chu Hao was, he was just a hob meat with a two-skin face.
But he didn't follow this matter, and he couldn't do it, the ambassador of Dongwa to Huaxia specially communicated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs about this matter, and later the special ambassador of the prime minister of Dongwei also personally handed over a personal letter to Dazaizhi, can you talk about this matter He can not care.
This is also the reason why the adults he said before came to the door.
Compared with Toyota, isn't the official of Tokai just like an adult?
If you want to talk about this matter, it is not a big deal, and there is no need for Prime Minister Dongwa to send a special envoy.
With the continuous decline of Dongwei, what can be done now is the automotive industry and semiconductors, and Toyota, as a benchmark enterprise in the Dongwei automobile industry, alarmed the Dongwei official to come forward to say peace, which is also the meaning of the question.
"Besides, it's not like I didn't give them a chance, as long as they do it on my terms, I will immediately supply them with titanium alloy. Chu Hao said.
Uncle Shuai glanced at Chu Hao, "Two hundred dollars a kilogram of titanium alloy, you are simply making strong money, you are embarrassed to mention the two words of conditions, can you rely on this condition?"
"I think it's pretty reliable. ”
Seeing that Uncle Shuai's face was a little not good-looking, Chu Hao muttered in a low voice.
Uncle Shuai felt that he was trembling with anger, now the price of titanium alloy is less than sixty dollars a kilogram, and Chu Hao offers two hundred dollars a kilogram to others, and he actually thinks that he is quite reliable, this is really shameless and invincible in the world.
Uncle Shuai's face became more and more ugly, but Chu Hao was very calm.
Because, he felt that his offer was quite reliable.
Don't look at the current price of titanium alloy is 60 US dollars a kilogram, while the previous official price was 100 US dollars a kilogram.
And now the performance of the titanium alloy produced by Huapan is still 13% of the previous 13%, generally speaking, if the performance of titanium alloy is increased by 30%, the cost needs to be doubled.
Therefore, Chu Hao felt that it was quite reliable for him to ask Toyota to pay him the price of two hundred dollars a kilogram.
"Uncle, you don't understand business matters, so don't interfere, so let's give you a face and talk to the people from Toyota. ”
Afraid that Uncle Shuai would be angry again, Chu Hao decided to let it go.
"I don't understand business things?" Uncle Shuai looked at Chu Hao angrily, he could manage this huge dragon Teng, and now Chu Hao actually said that he didn't understand business things.
Besides, even if he doesn't understand, Chu Hao will understand it with him, if the company is not run by his own precious niece, let alone developed into such a big one, I am afraid that it would have been yellowed by Chu Hao.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, as soon as Uncle Shuai raised his hand, he directly gave Chu Hao a fried date!
"Oh, Uncle Shuai, why are you still moving!"
Chu Hao hugged his head and wailed loudly, he found that Uncle Shuai's beating was getting more and more painful.
"Hit you, hit you lightly, let's go, let's go, don't get in my way. Uncle Shuai waved his hand and said with a disgusted face.
Knowing what kind of temper Chu Hao is, the standard bull temper, he doesn't want to go, he is going backwards, he doesn't want to do anything to force the cow head to drink water, in case Chu Hao's bull temper is committed, it will be troublesome at that time.
Besides, for the sake of a small Dongwan, he can't do it.
Anyway, he also brought it, and Chu Hao was willing to talk to others, and he didn't say anything, he had to accept his conditions, so he didn't care about it.
Three days later, Huapan headquarters.
"Chu Dong, Mr. Ling, please take care of me. ”
Ao Tian Shuo nodded at Chu Hao and Ling Shuang, and also presented his business cards with both hands.
Chu Hao and Ling Shuang looked at each other, this little Dongwei had done a lot of face-saving things.
You must know that Okuda Shuo, as the president of Toyota, is also the top business tycoon in the world, but now he can put on such a low posture in front of Chu Hao and Ling Shuang, which is really rare.
However, this also fully proves that the Dongwa people despise the weak and submit to the nature of the strong.
If it was Hua Pan who lost this time, I'm afraid what he saw would not be this humble face, but another one, which should have some terrifying faces.
Ao Tian Shuo's face was full of warm smiles at this time, although he didn't know in his heart that Chu Hao had been cut by a thousand knives and cut his abdomen a thousand times, but now people are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, and the key to solving this turmoil is still in Hua Pan's hands, so he can't help but be humble.
The two sides sat down, and the people on Hua Pan and Okuda Shuo's side each occupied one side.
In fact, in addition to Toyota's people, Okuda's side also includes Boeing, Airbus, etc., that is to say, in fact, this time Okuda Shuo represents all the manufacturing companies involved in this turmoil.
There is no way, in addition to Toyota's burning car protests, Boeing and Airbus have also been subjected to a lot of demonstrations and protests, but the two of them can produce large aircraft, and they don't have much impact on business, but their reputation is a little ugly.
However, the entire aviation market has been greatly affected, and it can even be said that during this period, the number of people taking flights around the world has been greatly reduced.
After all, everyone still attaches great importance to flight safety, which is nothing more than driving, if you drive, even if the car is broken, at most it is just a breakdown on the road, if the plane has a problem, it will kill people.
"Chu Dong, I now implore you to supply titanium alloy to Toyota and other companies. ”
As soon as he sat down, Okuda Shuo couldn't wait.
Chu Hao smiled, "As long as Toyota agrees to my previous conditions, I will immediately send the titanium alloy to your respective enterprises." ”
Speaking of this, Chu Hao's voice paused, "Could it be that Mr. Okuda Shuo, I didn't receive Huapan's conditions, then I have to ask the secretaries how they work, they can even make mistakes in such a big thing, and I bother Mr. Okuda Shuo to make a trip." ”
"Chu Dong, you misunderstood, your company's secretary has done a very good job, and we have received the conditions, but this condition is too difficult for us, I hope Chu Dong can be accommodating. ”
For Chu Hao's toughness, Okuda Shuo was not surprised at all, if Chu Hao was so easy to speak, he wouldn't need to come over with such fanfare.
Thinking of this, he scolded John Morgan and Lakshmi Mittal in his heart.
These two people, if they admit defeat, they will admit defeat, and there is nothing left, but he still has to be careful here and pretend to be a grandson.
This time, Okuda Shuo had forgotten how relaxed and comfortable he was when he watched the tiger fight from the other side.
can only say that if you come out to mix, you will have to pay it back sooner or later.
"Accommodating, accommodating, it's not impossible, so let's see how about one hundred and eighty dollars for Mr. Okuda Shuo's personal visit. Chu Hao said with a smile.
"It's still too expensive, the price of titanium alloy is less than sixty dollars a kilogram now, so according to the industry rules, the titanium alloy produced by Huapan now, I give the price of one hundred and twenty dollars a kilogram, I don't know what Chu Dong wants." Okuda said.
For the 30% increase in the performance of titanium alloy and the doubling of the cost, Okuda Shuo admits it.
The key question is what price to use as a base.
And Chu Hao's price is too outrageous, it's not good to say it, if it's two hundred dollars a kilogram, one hundred and eighty dollars a kilogram, there is no need for him to ask Huapan, ArcelorMittal can produce it himself.
After all, you must know that the cost of ArcelorMittal to produce titanium alloys is less than 80 US dollars a kilogram, even if the performance is improved by 40%, it is enough to calculate 180 US dollars a kilogram.
"Sixty dollars a kilogram?"
Speaking of this, a sneer suddenly crossed the corner of Chu Hao's mouth.
"Mr. Okuda Shuo, can't you take the current price of titanium alloy as the price of titanium alloy as it should be?" Chu Haopi said with a smile.
Chu Hao's face changed suddenly, and Ao Tian Shuo only frowned slightly, so that he was not frightened.
"Mr. Okuda Shuo, don't forget, the current price of titanium alloy is just the result of the competition between Huapan and ArcelorMittal, and I can tell you the truth that at the current price, Huapan needs to lose twenty dollars for every kilogram of titanium alloy produced. ”
"Huapan is not a philanthropist, Huapan needs to make a profit, so the price of 60 US dollars a kilogram is not sustainable. Chu Hao said loudly.
This Okuda Shuo's brain is stupid, and he really thinks that Huapan will continue to maintain the price of sixty dollars a kilogram.
"If that's the case, companies like Toyota will have to continue to purchase ArcelorMittal for their titanium alloys. ”
Okuda Shuo gave Chu Hao a nail that was neither soft nor hard.
Indeed, if the price is so high, he might as well continue to use ArcelorMittal for their titanium alloys.
After all, it's not that ArcelorMittal can't produce titanium alloys with higher performance, it's just that the price is not cost-effective.
This is also the key to the victory of Huapan in this war, Huapan continues to be able to supply titanium alloys with performance exceeding 30% of the original at less than 60 US dollars a kilogram.
And ArcelorMittal: If they want to do that, the price of titanium alloy must be more than 180 dollars.
In other words, there is a price difference of 120 US dollars, and according to the current size of the titanium alloy market, ArcelorMittal Group, for every dollar reduction in selling price, means a loss of 1200 million US dollars.
Now, if there is a loss of 120 US dollars per kilogram, it means that more than 10 billion US dollars have been lost, and it can even be said that the entire titanium alloy market has lost money.
No one can afford such a big loss, so ArcelorMittal Group, they have to admit defeat.
Now Okuda Shuo can be sure that the cost of Huapan's high-performance titanium alloy is definitely not as much as one hundred and twenty dollars, otherwise Huapan will not be able to bear such a big loss.
But in this situation, it seems impossible not to let Hua Pan make money, so he shouted out the price of one hundred and twenty dollars, but who knew that Chu Hao was still a lion with his mouth wide open, and he actually bit the price of one hundred and eighty dollars to death.
There was a sudden silence.
"Now, I take a step back, if I agree, then Huapan will resume the supply of titanium alloy to Toyota and other companies, if you don't agree, then please go back wherever you come from. ”
As soon as the words fell, without waiting for Okuda Shuo to react, Chu Hao said directly: "Toyota and other companies directly give Huapan a compensation of 500 million US dollars, as compensation for Huapan's losses during this time, as for the price of titanium alloy, Huapan will supply Toyota and other companies at a price of 160 US dollars a kilogram." ”
Okuda Shuo suddenly became anxious, stood up, and quickly shook his head, "Impossible, Toyota can't agree to these two conditions." ”
What are you kidding, Chu Hao is crazy, he actually asked Toyota to give Huapan 500 million, just 160 US dollars per kilogram, Toyota can't agree.
