Chapter 815: They Are Not Generous

After ten o'clock in the evening, Li Ye and the others finally arrived at the manufacturing factory of Mitsubishi Motors located in Okazaki City.

Then, except for Li Ye, everyone else in the inspection delegation was shocked.

The continuous workshops extended towards the distance like rice fields on a vast plain, and they couldn't see the edge at a glance.

Ma Ma Zhaoxian's face was calm, but his tone was trembling as he asked, "Is this really just a branch factory of the Mitsubishi Group? Section Chief Liu, are you sure this isn't the entire Mitsubishi Group gathered together?"

Liu Watching Liu Muhan looked at the scene in front of her and said uncertainly, "I'm not sure if it's only Mitsubishi Motors, but it's definitely not the entire Mitsubishi Group."

"Because Mitsubishi Shipbuilding must be by the sea, and Mitsubishi Steel and Mitsubishi Chemical should have very high chimneys..."

Xiao Jin-gang frowned and said, "Section Chief Liu, you don't know either? Then why don't you just ask?"

"Don't ask, there is only Mitsubishi Motors here. Toyota's manufacturing factory is in Toyota City..."

Li Ye opened his mouth and interrupted Xiao Jin-gang's suggestion.

Asking Liu Watching Liu Muhan whether this is only a branch factory of Mitsubishi? Is it to let people see the bottom line that our side has never seen the world?

I, Li Ye the Great, have seen the world, don't lose face for me.

But Elder Gu said in a deep voice, "Are you so sure? Or is it your self-esteem at work, afraid of knowing the gap between us?"

"Hi, the gap is definitely there, right? We are here to find the gap, why be coy?"

"Exactly, if we sew our mouths and don't speak, can people not see our bottom line?"

"."

Li Ye looked at the few "open-minded and unrestrained" guys, and his eyes gradually became cold.

More than enough to fail, less than enough to succeed.

"Several seniors, I think you misunderstood. Regarding the gap between us, I know it better than any of you."

Li Ye said coldly, "What you see is indeed just the manufacturing factory of Mitsubishi Motors in Japan. In addition, Mitsubishi Motors also has factories in the lighthouse."

"And Mitsubishi Motors only accounts for a small part of the Mitsubishi Group. The asset scale of the Mitsubishi Group is at least tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions. Are you seniors satisfied with what I said?"

"."

Everyone was stunned. The astonishing numbers reported by Li Ye and the cold words made them uncomfortable.

Although Li Ye's reputation for "bad temper" was well-known, he had maintained a "humble junior" attitude since leaving Beijing. This was the first time he had revealed his "little temper."

Lu Lu Zhizhang saw that everyone's faces were not right, so he hurriedly asked Li Ye, "Li Ye, is the hundreds of billions you said Japanese yen?"

Li Ye shook his head slowly and said, "No, it's US dollars."

"Huo~"

"Hundreds of billions of US dollars? Just kidding, how much money does a country have?"

"How much is our country's foreign exchange reserve this year? This is simply... unbelievable."

The people who just persuaded Li Ye to "admit the gap" didn't admit the gap at this moment.

But what Li Ye said was all facts.

The Mitsubishi Group was established in 1870. At first, it was just a shipping company, but with the development of the company, the Mitsubishi Group began to get involved in shipbuilding, banking, and insurance.

Later, it gradually owned many branches, such as aircraft, papermaking, steelmaking, and even oil. When its business blossomed everywhere, even the Japanese themselves didn't know what kind of behemoth it was.

According to statistics, the total assets of the Mitsubishi Group in later generations reached 20 trillion RMB, which is 50% larger than that so-called Universe Samsung.

It's just that what is different from Samsung is that its structure is relatively loose. Companies with the Mitsubishi brand account for 80%, and 20% cannot be judged whether they belong to Mitsubishi, and they still have competitive relationships with each other.

But in any case, the Mitsubishi Group is a huge economic entity.

Decades later, the shrinkage of Mitsubishi Motors' business gave people the illusion that the Mitsubishi Group was dying. In fact, it was only a small part of the Mitsubishi brand.

Gu Gu Jianqi looked at Li Ye and said in a deep voice, "Regardless of whether what Li Ye said is right, everyone stop joking. Note that we represent the Chinese family now, and we must be neither humble nor arrogant..."

"."

Everyone became expressionless. What the leader says is right. Even if he was flipping and sticking out his tongue the moment before, he can lecture you to "be steady" at this moment.

The reception staff of Mitsubishi Motors also came. It was impossible to tell the rank, but the posture was very gentle, bowing at least forty degrees, which made everyone feel quite comfortable.

However, after entering the workshop, strange expressions appeared on everyone's faces.

Someone murmured, "It's even more modernized than the Volkswagen production line in West Germany. I personally went to Shanghai to inspect the Santana production line..."

"I haven't been to Shanghai, but the 212 and Cherokee in Beijing can't compare with this..."

Now in the mainland, Santana is the most advanced production line, but at this time, the Shanghai Volkswagen production line is "too miserable to look at" compared to the Mitsubishi micro-truck production line here.

Santana has been produced in Shanghai Volkswagen since 1985. Before that, "Shanghai Manufacturing" was a resounding gold-lettered signboard in the mainland, representing the highest level of mainland mechanical manufacturing.

But how was Santana manufactured?

Volkswagen produced semi-finished cars in West German factories, then packed the semi-finished cars and parts and shipped them to Shanghai Volkswagen, and Shanghai Volkswagen completed the final product assembly.

At that time, the domestic Santana was made in W. Germany from top to bottom, and the assembly line was really shabby, without even a conveyor belt.

But the production line of Mitsubishi trucks here has achieved full assembly line mechanization.

"Sorry, photography is not allowed. Please hand over the camera to us for safekeeping!"

A cold, stopping voice pulled the dazed crowd back to reality.

At this time, everyone discovered that Secretary Zhong brought a camera, preparing to take photos for Gu Gu Jianqi at the scene as a "souvenir."

Liu Watching Liu Muhan hurriedly explained to the other party, and then ordered Secretary Zhong to hand over the camera.

"Didn't you emphasize that photography is not allowed? If you do this, people will terminate our visit..."

"I didn't take pictures of the equipment. Japanese people can take pictures when they visit our mainland. It's really stingy."

Secretary Zhong also explained himself, but in the end, he had to hand over the camera.

Li Ye looked at Professor Zhao, who nodded slightly, giving Li Ye a "no problem" look.

Why did Professor Zhao bring a "proud disciple" this time? Because that kid is a genius with a "photographic memory."

Li Ye can also achieve photographic memory with the help of a biological hard drive, but he doesn't know so many devices at the scene, and even less can restore many process details of the scene afterward.
