Material Empire

Early the next morning, Qin Hai, Chen Hongcheng, and the four from Honggang came out of the hotel together. Xiao Mengqin walked in the front. She habitually walked towards the subway station, took two steps, felt wrong, looked back, but saw that Chen Hongcheng had taken Jiang Huanwen with them, and reached out to stop two taxis.

"Get in the car." Qin Hai went to Xiao Mengqin and pointed to a taxi behind her and said to her.

"Taxis?" Xiao Mengqin opened his eyes and could hardly believe it. She had never taken a taxi when she was in China, and she didn't dare to think about it when she went abroad. In her impression, taking a taxi should be a very, very expensive consumption, and the cost is completely beyond her imagination.

Jiang Huanwen and the three of them followed Chen Hongcheng in the previous car, and there were only Qin Hai and Xiao Mengqin in the latter car. Qin Hai sat in the front row, leaving Xiao Mengqin in the back row. After the car drove up, Xiao Mengqin touched the leather seat cushion and looked at the street scene passing by the window. It was a little timid and a little excited.

"Qin Gong, do you go out by taxi every day these days?" Xiao Mengqin asked Qin Hai.

"You call me Xiao Qin, I'm younger than you." Qin Hai said, "We do take taxis every day these days, mainly to hurry."

"Is it expensive to take a taxi?" Xiao Mengqin asked in a low voice, as if afraid of being heard by the driver. In fact, she also knows that it is impossible for a driver to understand Chinese.

Qin Haidao: "From our hotel to Osso, it is estimated that there are eight or nine hundred pesetas, which is more than ten dollars."

"Ah!" Xiao Mengqin was about to shout, and his response was just like Chen Hongcheng's before. "Isn't this a taxi ride that will take my monthly salary?"

Qin Hai nodded and said earnestly: "This shows that our wages are too low to afford a taxi."

"But ... but ..." Xiao Mengqin wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it. The cost of a taxi was paid by Qin Hai, the realm of the rich. Not a salary group like her can look up. Can she accuse Qin Hai of luxury? Or, can she pretend to be high and pull the door and get off to take the subway?

After a moment of silence, Xiao Mengqin finally spoke timidly: "Qin ... uh. Xiao Qin, do you have a lot of foreign exchange in your hands?"

"How do you know?" Qin Hai asked.

Xiao Mengqin said: "I listened to Huang Liwei. She bought a lot of things, saying it was foreign currency borrowed from Mr. Chen. There is a perfume, which is particularly popular abroad. She also said that the secretary of the embassy Wang used that Fragrance. "

Except for a few officials' wives in the delegation, only single women were Huang Liwei and Xiao Mengqin, so they lived in the same room. In these days, Huang Liwei accompanied Zhu Xiaofeng and other officials to tour and shop in Madrid. All the foreign exchange borrowed from Chen Hongcheng was spent. The thing Huang Liwei wants to buy the most is the kind of perfume that Wang Zheyi used, and as a result, she really bought it.

Xiao Mengqin is a techie, but she is a girl after all. I don't like these luxury goods. Xiao Mengqin was envious when she watched Huang Lixian display the various items she bought and smelled the exotic perfume smell floating on her body. I heard that Huang Liwei borrowed foreign exchange from Chen Hongcheng, and Xiao Mengqin knew that she had little hope. Chen Hongcheng Chengtian nodded his head to those officials, and in front of them were a smirk of thousands of miles away, how could Xiao Mengqin dare to borrow foreign currency from him.

Qin Hai did not understand these careful thoughts of women and heard Xiao Mengqin's words. He asked with a smile: "Why, do you want to buy it too?"

"Hmm ..." Xiao Mengqin replied in an obscure voice, even though she felt her face flushed.

"You should have said it earlier." Qin Hai didn't look back, and didn't know Xiao Mengqin was in an awkward state. He said, "After talking about the equipment. There should be a day or two free, you can go shopping around Street. It's hard to find a trip, and you should buy something you like. As for foreign exchange, you just come to me, I will lend it to you. "

"Really?" Xiao Mengqin rejoiced. "Then ... can you lend me $ 50?"

"What's 50 dollars enough, 500?" Qin Hai promised with a big grin. The trial of smelting mold steel over Juanito has been successful. Juanito will soon pay the remaining payment, and Qin Hai is not short of foreign exchange.

"$ 500! So much, I can't afford it." Xiao Mengqin exclaimed, but what she thought was different from what she said.

Talking and laughing all the way, two taxis came to the front of Osor Company in tandem. The crowd got out of the car, Xiao Mengqin ran forward and said something to the guard, and the guard waved his hand to let them in. Their party has been here several times before, and the guards know them.

When everyone came to the negotiation room of Osor, the other two business people of the other party were also present. Xiao Mengqin whispered to Qin Hai, saying that one of them was the sales director of Orso, called Tony, and the other was his deputy, Valentine.

Since both sides are already familiar, after a few words of embarrassment, they went directly to the topic. Jiang Huanwen introduced Tony that Qin Hai was the purchasing commissioner of Hongyuan Iron and Steel Plant and had just come from other places to discuss the matter.

"Our attitude has been made very clear. 20 million sets. This is a preferential price. We know China is a developing country. We want to establish long-term economic and trade relations with China, so we will give such a preferential price. Price. "Tony dragged his long stand and stated his position, with a touch of arrogance in his attitude, obviously not paying attention to the group of Chinese in front of him.

Several of Honggang have set their sights on Qin Hai, and they have been dealing with Tony for several days. To this attitude of Tony, they can be described as poor donkeys, and there is no way to deal with it. Now that Qin Hai has said so loudly that he can negotiate the price, let's start now.

Qin Hai sat upright, coughed slightly, attracted Tony's attention to himself, and then asked with a smile: "Mr. Tony, the offer you are talking about is an electric stove designed in 1968. Let's say it was a 1978 product, and then sell it to us at twice the market price. Is that true? "

"Young man, don't speak by your own imagination." Tony sank his face and said to Qin Hai with a reprimand. His age is more than double that of Qin Hai, but he is qualified to call it Qin Hai.

Seeing Tony's bluff, Qin Hai laughed even more kindly. He said, "Mr. Tony, what do you think I said by imagination?"

"Our device was designed and designed in 1976, not the 1968 technology you said." Tony said coldly.

Qin Haidao: "Really? I think that Mr. Bardolmero, the chief designer of this electric furnace, would definitely not think like you. If I remember correctly, he has retired in 1971. You mean, Did he come back to the company to design this electric furnace later? "

"How do you know Mr. Baldomero?" Tony's face suddenly changed, and there was nothing more embarrassing than being pierced in person when he lied. He originally thought that the Chinese did not understand European metallurgical technology at all. As long as he bite and said that the equipment was from 1978, the Chinese could not find any evidence to refute him. Who knows, this unusually young Chinese can not only tell the design time of this electric furnace, even the chief designer of it has verified it.

Of course, Tony didn't know. After seeing the information given by Xiao Mengqin yesterday, Qin Hai took some technical details into his mind, and then verified with Gonette. Osso's electric stove was quite famous in the early 1970s, and Gonette was also involved in its design, so it can remember the chief designer and other things at the time. Qin Hai is not a reckless person. He wants to make a bid to Oso. Naturally, he must first understand the other person's bosses.

Qin Hai only smiled mysteriously about Tony's question. He continued: "Mr. Tony, do you still insist that this electric furnace was designed and finalized in 1976? As Spain's most negative metallurgical technology supplier, if I'm still designing RP electric furnaces in 1976, I'm afraid it will be a joke? "

"Of course, I admit that the design of the furnace body of this electric furnace was completed before 1976, using the most mature technology of Osor. However, the control part of the electric furnace, as well as the oxygen nozzle and other parts, are used. The new technology that appeared in the late 1970s, isn't Mr. Qin denying this? "Tony stood by and started looking for other excuses.

Qin Haidao: "I do not deny that you have added some relatively new accessories to this old electric furnace, making it look like a newly designed electric furnace. But as a metallurgical expert, Mr. Tony believes that an electric furnace Should the price be determined by the furnace body or by these accessories? On the European market ~ www.readwn.com ~ How much can a new electric furnace control module cost? "

"You can't say that. To integrate such a control module into an electric furnace, you still need some technology." Valentin interrupted, "Osor's value lies in being able to perfectly integrate these technologies into one On an electric furnace, ... even if the furnace body of this electric furnace is slightly out of date. "

"I recognize your value, but this value requires a scientific calculation method. Your electric furnace price is too high. If it can be reduced a bit, we are very interested in introducing these two electric furnaces and the corresponding equipment." Qin Hai In a timely manner, Tony and Valentine were provided with a step to step down.

"Mr. Qin thinks, how much are the prices of these two electric furnaces more suitable?" Tony asked directly.

"$ 14 million." Qin Hai said.

"One?" Tony asked.

Qin Hai shook his head and said, "No, there are two ... To be precise, two sets of equipment, including the electric furnace and all the continuous casting equipment."

"It's impossible!" Tony shouted red-faced.
