Sail across the sea

Chapter 268
"Gao Fan, tell me your thoughts completely."

Bob heard some clues and said to Gao Fan.

Although Vallance didn't know what it was, he vaguely felt that this young man from China seemed to be able to bring some opportunities to his business.He gestured to the two and said, "Let's talk in my office, I have some good coffee beans."

The three entered the office building. Similar to the situation in the workshop, the office building also looked deserted.Vallance pushed open the door of an office, called out the only female employee inside, and asked her to help make coffee, then brought Bob and Gao Fan to his office, and invited them to sit on the sofa Up and down.

"Young people from China, you can talk about your thinking now." Vallance sat down behind his desk and said to Gao Fan.

"Mr. Vallance said just now that the chemical equipment market in the United States is currently sluggish, but there is still a great demand in Europe and Asia. In fact, China is carrying out its own modernization construction. I dare to predict that this will be the largest in human history. A large-scale industrialization process, in this process, the amount of chemical equipment required will also be unprecedented." Gao Fan opened his mouth, and there was a grand narrative.

Vallance and Bob exchanged glances, obviously feeling that Gao Fan was fooling around.The reason is very simple. If you, a young man from a developing country, say "the largest industrialization in human history" in front of the world's most powerful country, people will believe it.

However, after all, Bob is a person who has a positive attitude towards China's development potential. He smoothed things over for Gao Fan and said: "China's modernization is indeed very worth looking forward to. Can it be called the largest industrialization process in human history? It's not very important. Mr. Vallance should be able to believe what Gao Fan said that China will need a lot of chemical equipment in the future."

"I don't know much about the situation in China, but I believe in the vision of Hatch Group." Vallance gave a more cautious answer.

Gao Fan couldn't think of a better way to prove his words for a while, so he stopped entangled in the question of whether it is the biggest or not, but continued: "Currently, the US chemical machinery manufacturing industry lacks competitiveness, mainly because labor costs are too high. High, can not be compared with Japanese companies.

"At the same time, China's chemical machinery manufacturing industry also lacks competitiveness in the international market, mainly due to backward equipment and low technical level.

"I think that if we can use American equipment and technology and combine China's cheap labor force, it will be equivalent to learning from each other's strengths. At that time, no matter whether it is Germany or Japan, how can it be the opponent of China and the United States?"

Vallance said: "This principle is valid. However, as I said just now, it is impossible for our equipment and old workers to move to China. I think it is unrealistic to move Chinese workers to the United States." , because then the cost of labor is no longer cheap.”

"We can make a compromise." Gao Fan said, "My consideration is to find a chemical equipment factory in China, and the Odin factory will inject capital and participate in a joint venture to establish a joint venture. Mr. Vallance can be the person in charge of this enterprise, according to According to the management mode of the Odin factory, this Chinese factory has been completely transformed so that it has the ability to manufacture advanced chemical equipment."

"Are you sure there are enough qualified workers in China's chemical equipment factories?" Vallance asked.

Gao Fan smiled slightly: "Mr. Vallance, you may still have some misunderstandings about China. A few years ago, China was blocked by the two camps of the East and the West. What do you think of the level of our workers?"

100 million tons of oil refining and 5 tons of urea plant are already relatively backward technologies in today's world, but Vallance is a knowledgeable person, knowing that he can independently build such a plant means that Chinese chemical equipment companies design, Manufacturing capacity has reached a certain level, which is a manifestation of comprehensive strength.

He believed that Gao Fan would not lie on such a question, so he nodded, indicating that Gao Fan could continue talking.

"Part of the mobile and redundant equipment in the Odin factory can be moved to China and use the workers there for production. The factories on both sides can carry out a division of labor, and the Odin factory is responsible for the manufacture of some equipment with relatively high technical requirements. , the technical requirements are relatively low, and the equipment that requires more labor is handed over to Chinese factories to complete." Gao Fan said.

"That's a good idea." Bob interjected, "In this way, the pressure on the Odin factory will be reduced, and production can be completed by relying on the remaining workers."

Gao Fan smiled and shook his head: "No, Bob, I don't think the remaining workers in the Odin factory are enough to complete the production tasks here. After all, the workers left by Mr. Vallance are all high-level workers. He is a mechanic, and he is quite old, so there is no technical problem, but his physical strength must not keep up."

"What do you mean?" Vallance asked with a smile.

Gao Fan said: "We can send some young workers from China. The number does not need to be too many, about 50 people at a time. They can undertake a lot of auxiliary work that requires physical strength and help those old workers."

"I'm afraid what you want to say is to let them serve as apprentices to those old workers?" Vallance was so easily deceived, he immediately heard Gao Fan's intentions.

Gao Fan did not deny it, he said: "Yes, the skills of the old workers need to be passed on. Chinese workers learn their skills and go back to China to improve the technical level of Chinese factories. Mr. Vallance, you should I know that the factory in China also has your shares, and it is also your factory."

"How many shares can I own?" Vallance asked.

"Up to 49%." Gao Fan said.Seeing that Vallance seemed to want to say something, he quickly explained: "This is a regulation of the Chinese government. Sino-foreign joint ventures must be controlled by the Chinese party. However, I assure you, I can even ask the local government of China to sign for you. Huaya, you can have complete power when it comes to business management."

"Can you find a factory like this?" Vallance continued.

"Yes!" Gao Fan answered simply, "This factory is called China Maolin Chemical Machinery Factory. It was established in 1955. It has the production qualification of Class II pressure vessels and has independently built more than 30 sets of 5000-ton synthetic ammonia plants. , these devices have been operating stably for more than five years."
