Chapter 1290: Open the door, doing business

"There's no fragrant food, but there's plenty of big drinking. You going is just right."

Huang Gan caught Li Xuewu and wouldn't let go, complaining a lot, mainly about the job transfer problem after training and learning.

There is no training without reason in the system, especially long-term ideological education training, which is crucial.

Do you think everyone will improve after training? That's not necessarily true.

Without a foundation, the leader suddenly recommends you to participate in training, and also hints that they think highly of you and appreciate you. You must be careful.

It is very likely that after returning from training, you won't wait for the news of promotion, and your original position will be gone, being marginalized.

Of course, this couldn't happen to Huang Gan, because his father, uncle, and others were all wall-grasses that had gone out the door.

These words weren't said by Li Xuewu, but by Huang Gan himself. Li Xuewu wanted to say "hide one's light and bide one's time" and "be hypocritical," but he just didn't want to say anything empty, speaking the big truth directly.

Saying these big truths to Li Xuewu was no problem. The relationship between the two was about as close as Wang Xiaoqin.

Don't look at the two having no serious interaction on weekdays; when they meet, it's either eating and drinking or playing and making trouble, with no serious business.

However, the businesses the two held had too many cooperative relationships, and even involved in multiple system networks in Beijing.

Li Xuewu no longer worked in the branch bureau. He could obtain important information about industrial and commercial affairs from Ji Yuxiu or others, or could contact previous connections when needed.

Judicial court? These are those classmates.

Among these classmates, Huang Gan, this prison warden, relied on the relationship with Li Xuewu to connect the East City First Prison with Red Star Factory, creating a not-so-small demonstrative economy.

Papermaking, printing, carpentry, all stopped, all transferred to Chadian Farm. Economic activities with high danger coefficients were also given to other prison units, specifically doing electronics, clothing, and art pieces.

The First Prison completely completed the renovation project this year, without using a penny of funding from the superior, creating a city-wide demonstrative prison.

The living and working environment of the prison staff was good, and the living and working environment of the prisoners was also good. Any leader who came to inspect, as long as they could see it, would give him a high score in their heart.

Naturally, with the whole family working in one system, he also ushered in the opportunity for career progress.

Previously, he had already concurrently served as the deputy director of the logistics management office of the municipal judicial court. Now, he jumped into the labor reform bureau to work.

Obtaining a promotion with Huang Gan's age and qualifications wasn't excessive, but it also depended on which system and who he was compared with.

The judicial system was relatively closed, and the progress space wasn't very large, not to mention he didn't have the work experience of a full-time deputy director.

He didn't even have the work experience of a director in charge, previously that was a part-time job. Now he had taken a big step forward.

Just this still made Huang Gan dissatisfied. From the business department to the management office, and then transferring out, he had to run to the leaders of the municipal judicial court.

That is to say, it was very difficult from prison warden to labor reform bureau director, and even more difficult to progress from labor reform bureau director to municipal judicial court leader.

One couldn't take a big step every time, right?

If he wanted to achieve this goal, he had to constantly produce more dazzling results, letting the leaders above trust him and support him.

So, wasn't this finding Li Xuewu to seek help and learn from experience?

"What else can I say? I can only say money is really a good thing—" Huang Gan drank a mouthful of wine, looked at Li Xuewu and said in a low voice: "Our leader came down, saw the environment of the First Prison, and said this to me. What else can I say—"

"That also proves you have this strength," Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Director of the Labor Reform Bureau of the Municipal Judicial Court, that's fine. A good position that many people dream of but can't get. I think your father is also very surprised. He definitely couldn't calculate that you could progress so fast."

"He was about to be scared to death—"

Huang Gan curled his lips and said: "When I first heard this news, he even thought someone was going to fix him."

Seeing Li Xuewu look at him, he pouted his lips again and added in a low voice: "He was afraid someone would attack from me."

"Even if it was clear about the ins and outs, he only reminded me to act low-key and be cautious in doing things."

"What does it mean? Afraid you'll cause trouble?"

Li Xuewu glanced at him and asked lightly: "Not seeking government in one's position, I'm afraid you're going to waste time in this position."

"Another point, from the policy documents issued this year, it's not hard to see that the above still has the meaning of revitalizing the economy."

"That's what's said, but who can guarantee the wind won't change?" Huang Gan frowned slightly: "Otherwise, why would I say that coming up at this time isn't a good opportunity for me."

"Then what else can you do, go back?"

Li Xuewu's eyes narrowed slightly, saying: "From the time you concurrently served as deputy director of the logistics office, you should have noticed."

"Noticed is noticed, just didn't expect the transfer order to come so fast." Huang Gan annoyedly put down his chopsticks, propped his arms and said: "By the time my father heard the news, it was already too late. The board meeting had already discussed and passed it. Now I'm neither up nor down."

"Then there's no way, it all depends on you."

Li Xuewu spread his hands and said: "Your leaders trust you so much, it's also because they fancy your economic mind."

"You either rush forward on one road, or pretend to be confused, waiting a few years for the wind to be smooth and the rain to be smooth, and then doing work won't be too late."

"Wait a few years? Forget it."

Huang Gan raised his eyes and looked at him, saying: "From deputy director to director, thirty is a key age. You think I'm like you?"

"I can rush as far as I can now. Once I reach forty, I basically have to step on the brake. If I rush again, I'll overturn."

Being born into a cadre family made Huang Gan know these unspoken rules like the back of his hand. One couldn't say there were no exceptions, but it was also a portrayal of most people's work experience, which was very referential.

Why did he say Li Xuewu was different? It was still about age.

Li Xuewu was only 22 this year, and was already a director. Even if he wasted time training for a few years, he still had time to adjust his direction.

Huang Gan was 28 this year, almost 30. His career was about to reach the stage of stepping on the accelerator. If he didn't rush, he would lie down.

"Tell me your thoughts," Li Xuewu hugged his arms and propped them on the table, looking at him and saying: "What I can help you with, I absolutely won't be ambiguous."

"Economy, thousands of threads and thousands of threads, it's still the economy," Huang Gan saw Li Xuewu speak straightforwardly, so he wasn't ambiguous either, speaking directly: "Since our leaders have designated the First Prison as a demonstrative unit, the purpose and goal don't need to be stated clearly. It's the economy."

"I have absolute trust and confidence in your economic business mind. You have to help me consult."

"To put it bluntly, you want a project."

Li Xuewu summarized Huang Gan's long-winded talk in one sentence, "You first talk about how you plan to fix it after you take office."

"I'll first talk about our leader's meaning," Huang Gan didn't mind Li Xuewu's straightforwardness. He didn't hide anything from Li Xuewu, also speaking calmly: "Since it's called demonstrative, then the next focus of my work is to standardize and develop the logistics support and business innovation ability of all prisons."

"Either replicate or summarize the existing business of the First Prison according to local conditions, connecting with other prisons to form a scale industrialization."

He pointed to the dining table and said earnestly: "Or completely adapt to local conditions, one prison one policy, one place one industry."

"But I grasp comprehensive economic work, so I must consider the construction conditions of production and the sales situation in the later stage."

Huang Gan looked very far and thought very clearly. The economic work of the First Prison was supported by the recycling station under Li Xuewu's support, and it was supported to have today's family foundation.

But this didn't mean other prisons had such good conditions, or had cadres like him who dared to pursue change.

So, project is project, management is management. He now stood at a new height and must change an angle to consider the problem.

The products of the First Prison had the recycling station to bottom out in the early stage. Later, they joined with the Third Prison of West City and Chadian Farm to engage in the economy, had a cooperation foundation with Red Star Factory, and had a trade management center responsible for distribution and the laying of raw material procurement channels.

Now, wanting to standardize all the prisons and labor reform farms in the city to form a self-developed economic pattern, he was too embarrassed.

"Fortunately, the year before last, the Yinhe Farm in Longjiang and the Jiabiangou Farm in Longyou were transferred to the locality, otherwise I would have to run north and south."

Yinhe Farm is the Shuanghe Farm of later generations, previously called Beijing Municipal Local State-owned Yinhe Farm, transferred to Longjiang Province the year before last.

However, it would be taken back in '82 of later generations. The situation in Longyou was the same, all policy adjustments.

Of course, not all farms were handed over to the locality. For example, the Qinghe Farm in the Chadian area of Tianjin was still in the hands of the Labor Reform Bureau, now under Huang Gan's direct management.

"Now I have a preliminary idea," Huang Gan scratched his head, thinking while speaking: "Can't completely take the path of adapting to local conditions. This path is too exclusive and easy to walk to a dead end."

"I want to take Chadian Farm as the production core, connecting other prisons to form an industrial chain production mode."

He looked at Li Xuewu and said: "Must fully consider the subjective initiative and enthusiasm of the prisons, and even more consider those main responsible persons who lack the necessary economic mind."

"So rather than forcing them to engage in the economy, it's better to concentrate strength and advantages in Chadian Farm to build professional factories, subcontracting spare parts or upstream and downstream businesses to other prisons."

"This not only saves the thinking of adapting to local conditions, but also gives these prisons a certain economic encouragement in the early stage."

Huang Gan looked at Li Xuewu and said: "Only by tasting the sweetness in the process of economic change and development can they actively participate in this self-reliance economic change action."

"So I am preparing to form large-scale clothing factories, craft factories, cultural and sports goods and toy factories in Chadian Farm."

He pointed to the table and emphasized: "At the same time, we must expand the scale of existing furniture factories, paper mills, printing plants, leather factories, farms, and planting areas, forming an industrialization pattern."

"So?" Li Xuewu looked at him and asked: "What do you want me to support you with? Machinery, technology, or management experience?"

"If there are these, of course it's better," Huang Gan laughed, looked at Li Xuewu and said: "I know your factory has clothing factories, leather factories. Let's discuss, can you teach us."

"Teach you what, just sell these two factories to you—" Li Xuewu raised an eyebrow and said: "As long as your products go through the trade management center's channel for sales, this matter is covered by me. As soon as you take office, you can sign the contract."

"Really or fake?"

Huang Gan was confused by Li Xuewu's words. He just wanted to learn advanced production technology, never thought of taking the whole pot.

"I'm sure the Labor Reform Bureau can't afford the money to buy the factory."

"It doesn't matter, can use the form of compensation trade to settle," Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Machinery equipment and technology can all be provided to you first, teaching and learning, no tuition fees."

"Not only clothing factories and leather factories, are you interested in automobile spare parts production projects?"

"I really believe your ghost!"

Huang Gan felt something was wrong when he heard this, looked at Li Xuewu and asked: "You shouldn't be crazy, selling factories to play?"

"You aren't crazy, or you are teasing me as a fool."

"Who has the leisure to tease you—"

Li Xuewu curled his lips and said: "Clothing factories and leather factories themselves aren't within the scope of our factory's main business."

"The clothing factory was originally our factory's labor protection supplies factory. Until now, it is still responsible for the production of work clothes and labor protection supplies for all factory staff, but now it has more other businesses."

He introduced: "Training equipment for security departments, work equipment for fire departments, and automobile interiors, etc."

"The leather factory is the same. The original production scale wasn't large, mainly serving the labor protection factory. Later, it had the leather channel from the border, and only then did it develop."

"Now it is also supplying goods for clothing factories and automobile interiors, etc. The leather purchased by your First Prison is produced by our Jiangnan Leather Factory."

"If you want it, then take it all. After all, your production cost is the lowest."

Li Xuewu nodded slowly, looked at Huang Gan, whose expression still carried suspicion, and said with a smile: "Afraid I'll pit you?"

"Afraid, I'm very afraid, you are very dangerous—"

Huang Gan curled his lips and asked: "Don't tell me your factory is short of funds, unable to continue, selling assets to return capital."

"Short of funds is true, unable to continue is nonsense," Li Xuewu said calmly: "Shedding third-party industries that are not related to the main business is originally an inevitable process of groupization. To exert force harder, one must clench one's fist."

He clenched his fist, gestured and said: "Starting this year, our factory will not only shed these marginal businesses, but also have bigger actions, but you don't have the capital to participate."

"Damn, you said I'm so scared."

Huang Gan raised his eyebrows and asked: "You just said you want to shed third-party industries, do you shed the textile mill too?"

"And other third-party industries, if you shed them all, how do you settle those staff? Can't send them to us, right?"

"Didn't say shed them all—"

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "The textile mill can't be given to you. The leather from the border isn't as valuable as wool."

"Just like this, you go back and consider. Receiving a batch of Red Star Factory's third-party industries, doing OEM for us is so appropriate."

"Hehe—you don't have good intentions."

Huang Gan pulled his lips, looked at Li Xuewu's eyes and said: "But I can't bear to refuse the conditions you proposed."

"Well, your mindset, how to say it?"

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and nodded, saying: "Cheap people are hypocritical."

April 30th, Wednesday.

Before the monthly summary came out, Red Star Factory announced a piece of news, which was reported and publicized by the Industrial Newspaper.

Red Star Factory will officially start construction in June this year, building the first automobile spare parts supply chain warehouse-style supply center in the Liangma River Industrial Zone.

This is an industrial plan regarding the automobile spare parts supply chain system that was already announced last year.

Red Star Factory's statement at the time was that it planned to establish automobile spare parts supply centers in major automobile industrial cities across the country within the next five years, used to support the procurement, sales, operation, and development of automobile spare parts.

The first supply center located in the Liangma River Industrial Zone will absorb and operate the products of automobile spare parts production enterprises in Beijing and the northern region under the management of the supply chain system, and supply products to automobile manufacturers.

Red Star Factory simultaneously announced that after the Red Star Factory (Beijing) Automobile Spare Parts Supply Chain Supply Center officially operates, it will go online with all spare parts for models on sale at Red Star Factory, including power trains.

That is to say, if you are not afraid of trouble, you can completely buy all the spare parts from the supply center and take them home to assemble an Hongxing Lingyang.

Of course, this is a theoretical state.

Actually, Red Star Factory does not oppose selling automobile spare parts to individuals, including complete sets of spare parts.

However, the purchase quantity is too small, and it does not meet the operation standards of the supply center. It means they don't sell if you buy too little.

Spare parts supplied to maintenance centers don't count. Any car company can buy a batch of spare parts from here to assemble into automobiles for sale.

In this era without intellectual property rights, Red Star Factory's move is undoubtedly throwing its golden rice bowl on the street.

Many people predicted that Red Star Factory was confused. Once the supply center officially operates, the automobile spare parts here will be moved away by those car companies, and then they will process automobiles and motorcycles themselves.

By then, there will be Antelopes, Comets, Gemini, etc., produced by various manufacturers running on the street... etc.! This is a trap!

That's right, Red Star Factory is not afraid of other car companies buying spare parts back to assemble and produce Red Star Factory's products for sale.

There must be profit in this, but absolutely not much.

Why? Because Red Star Factory's own automobile product sales price is not high. Without an assembly line, comparing production costs with Red Star Factory is not a joke.

Another point, there will absolutely be car companies doing this, especially those township car companies established in the past few years that are on the verge of bankruptcy.

That's right, you didn't hear wrong. Ten years ago, the courage of townships was particularly big, and they all dared to launch automobile manufacturing factory projects.

Under the banner of learning and survival, they will absolutely openly produce various brands of Hongxing Lingyang automobiles and Comet motorcycles.

But this hits Red Star Factory's target, because the sales of spare parts have already made money. Isn't filling the country with "Red Star" automobiles a strategy of supply chain and brand marketing?

When there are Hongxing Lingyang and Comet figures on the roads of major cities and villages across the country, it is the day Red Star Factory achieves success.

The spare parts of the supply center are currently sold automobiles. The update and iteration speed of these enterprises absolutely cannot keep up with Red Star Factory's automobile replacement speed, not even the core of the engine.

Technology and production cost double crushing will only constantly improve the brand and promote the supply chain.

This is a conspiracy, clean and neat.

Not only "seduced" those small car companies to work hard for Red Star Factory, but also bypassed the market of other brands.

This is the first shot to sound the reform of the automobile spare parts supply chain and assembly line production mode, deafening.

Red Star Factory's attitude of actively promoting automobile production standardization is serious, and the pressure on other car companies is imaginable.

There is a hooligan who can't play. If they don't launch assembly lines and participate in the supply chain production alliance again, they will wait to be squeezed out by those small car companies.

From the Automobile Spare Parts Supply Conference, Red Star Factory had already started the layout of industrial production standard reform.

Until today, it was just giving a whip to those enterprises that were lucky, letting them see if Red Star Factory was serious.

Beijing's supply center is the first one. In the future, there will be many more: Yangcheng, Shancheng, Jicheng, Quzhou, Tianjin, etc.

Just the automobile enterprises where the cities that Red Star Factory has already announced the plan to build supply warehouses and supply centers are in a panic.

What does this mean?

The warehouse is built at our doorstep. Is this forcing us to implement production reform and supply chain reform?

Open the door, doing business—

Actually, the first to feel this "sincerity" are the automobile industrial manufacturers and spare parts production enterprises in Beijing.

The wind blows over, and everyone can feel the chill.

Enterprises that have determined to implement industrial reform are naturally willing to see the supply chain warehouse placed at their own factory door.

And spare parts production enterprises that have already joined the supply chain cooperation scope are also willing to reduce transportation costs.

However, other automobile-related enterprises are under great pressure.

Red Star Factory setting up such a thing is not overturning the table, it's tearing down the walls of the private room, openly acting like a hooligan.

If there is such a convenient and favorable automobile spare parts procurement channel as a supply warehouse, how would car companies cooperate directly with them?

Centralized procurement and marketing go for small profits but quick turnover, which is saving management and operation expenses generated in production and supply links.

At the same time, the supply chain management mode also reduces the probability of defective products, because this is to deduct money.

Unified specifications, unified standards, car manufacturing costs will absolutely decrease, and the difficulty of spare parts production enterprises returns to technology.

That's right, now it's a planned economy, and no factory lacks production tasks, but what about the future?

After Red Star Factory stirred it up, the country's automobile industry caught a cold, and everyone is adapting to the new production mode.

Needless to say, if they don't change, ten years later, the national automobile sales market will be eaten up by Red Star Factory by more than half, and there will be no room for their survival.

Just like the current Beijing Automobile Factory, being watched by Red Star Factory, multi-faceted clamping and threatening, has already started self-reform.

Shedding industries without development and confidence, cleaning up and reorganizing assets and human resources, adjusting the center of industrial development...

Even automobile industry development talents have started to be valued. Those engineers and technicians who were cheated away by Red Star Factory before have all received notices, requiring them to return to their original units to work.

Thinking of farting? Gu Weijie does things quite reliably. The work relationships of these people have all been transferred over. Go back to a fart.

This is also the reason why Beijing Automobile Factory only dared to send notification letters to engineers and technicians. They absolutely didn't dare to ask Red Star Factory for people.

Red Star Factory is also too damaging. Red Star Hongxing Lingyang couldn't beat others' 212, so it came with a Three Heroes Fighting Lu Bu, three brothers hitting one person.

Red Star Hongxing Lingyang, Red Star Journey, Red Star Land Cruiser.

The off-road vehicle field is considered to be clearly divided by Red Star Factory. 212 is taken out alone and placed in the market environment. It can't beat any of Red Star Factory's products alone, because it is too comprehensive.

Comprehensive means mediocre.

For these old car companies, Red Star Factory still has that sentence: Open the door, doing business—

"If it's convenient, I also want to represent Red Star Factory Management Committee to invite you several to watch the literary evening party held tomorrow."

Li Xuewu shook Kenichi Nishida's hand and said with a smile: "This is also to express our apologies. Our factory has been too busy recently, and negotiations are full. Sorry."

"Li Sang, we are already good friends." Kenichi Nishida didn't mind the sharpness in Li Xuewu's words at all, patted his hand and said affectionately: "Precisely because we are good friends, we should understand each other even more, so we are even more willing to see Red Star Factory full of guests and friends, and the economy taking off. We are in a relationship where one prospers, one prospers—"

"You are absolutely right—"

Li Xuewu shook his hand and said: "Thank you very much for Mr. Nishida's understanding and support."

"Today's meeting, our Director Li will personally host it to show the importance attached to this cooperation."

"That is truly an honor. Thank you Li Sang, thank you Director Li." Kenichi Nishida spoke very beautifully, but his eyes showed no reaction to Red Star Factory's top leader Li Huai De participating in the talks.

Li Xuewu also saw this point and was slightly surprised.

He thought in his heart, could it be that Old Li's ignorance of business had already spread abroad? Everyone on earth knows it?

The formal talks with Sanhe Stock Company were divided into two parts. Old Li actually only participated in the first half, which was the meeting.

After the meeting ended, it was Gao Yaqin and Li Xuewu who led the professional negotiation team to start negotiations with Sanhe Stock Company.

So, Sanhe Stock Company could see from the negotiation program arrangement that Old Li was here to "give face." In fact, they still had to face this "Red Star Absolute Fierce Tiger" Li Xuewu.

The first half of the talks between the two sides, which was the meeting part, was lackluster. The Sanhe Stock Company representatives, eager to facilitate a new round of negotiations, had no heart to deal with Old Li's game of circling and talking nonsense.

Therefore, after the meeting ended, when he left, Kenichi Nishida and others didn't feel at all the importance Red Star Factory attached to this cooperation, or didn't want to be moved by themselves.

Old Li originally wanted to use his pressure to scare these ghosts, setting a tone of victory for this negotiation.

Didn't expect these ghosts not to cooperate with him, showing coldness during the meeting, making him lose face.

Therefore, after the meeting ended, when he left, Li Huai De urged Gao Yaqin and Li Xuewu to fight for every inch in this negotiation, protect Red Star Factory's interests, and fuck them.

The two who returned to the venue had a feeling of wanting to cry but couldn't laugh. Old Li was holding a grudge.

Gao Yaqin was even more amused but couldn't laugh. The corners of her mouth were almost unable to be pressed down, and the muscles on her face were twitching.

When the two sides entered the negotiation conference room and saw the formation laid out on the opposite side, Kenichi Nishida and others just felt the importance Red Star Factory attached to this cooperation, because Li Xuewu was sitting in the middle.

To be honest, Kenichi Nishida and others absolutely didn't mean to despise and dislike Director Li Huai De. They even hoped infinitely that this negotiation would be hosted by Director Li.

Because they absolutely had the confidence to handle Red Star Factory that way. No one is a fool, willing to face the shrewd Li Xuewu.

Even Gao Yaqin gave up the position of host, which shows Li Xuewu's determination to win this negotiation.

As soon as the meeting started, the two sides first reviewed the cooperation highlights and excellent cases of their respective enterprises with the other side in the past year.

This is the correct way to open a cooperation negotiation between excellent enterprises. It didn't start with swords drawn and bows bent. That's not a commercial negotiation; that's a daydream of a domineering president in a cool novel.

After simply reviewing the past, the Chrysanthemum Knife and the Fierce Tiger then revealed their sharp blades and fangs, colliding together.

As the host, Li Xuewu specifically emphasized one point, that is, the international market for household appliances has undergone huge changes in the past year. Both sides need and must carry out secondary consultation and negotiation on the cooperation agreement to determine adaptation to the new market situation.

And Li Xuewu accurately spoke about the changes in the household appliance market in Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia, and other places in the past year during the talks.

At the same time, he also spoke about the basic situation of several major appliance markets, including price, quality, category, brand, etc., detailed and specific, and the data could absolutely convince people.

The pressure on Sanhe Stock Company and others listening to him talk about these became greater and greater. They all knew they couldn't treat Red Star Factory as a fool who didn't understand anything under the blockade state to fool.

Then the negotiation plan formulated in these two days had to be changed, executing the backup plan; otherwise, that wasn't a negotiation, that was looking for trouble.

Li Xuewu waved his hand, signaling the negotiation group members to distribute the prepared materials to the other party.

It was some market surveys commissioned by Red Star Factory to foreign enterprises in various places, especially the expectations and goals for advanced household appliances.

This survey report hit Sanhe Stock Company's seven inches directly. They also did relevant market surveys, just didn't expect Red Star Factory to also do it, and do it more seriously and carefully than them.

Commissioning a third party to conduct market surveys, this was an achievement they hadn't reached. Naturally, there was no need to doubt the credibility.

Therefore, from the beginning of the negotiation, they fell into a disadvantage unknowingly. Before they could even open their mouths, they were almost stunned by the information Li Xuewu threw out one after another.

Li Xuewu summarized the development ideas and business space of Red Star Factory's Yazhi brand appliances, and its adaptability to the market.

This time, he formally proposed the negotiation opinion of expanding product categories and expanding the brand family to Sanhe Stock Company.

More representative, he proposed in his speech that color television sets and larger-sized television sets must be placed on the negotiation table, and more excellent and advanced motor-type equipment must also be placed on this negotiation list, such as washing machines, refrigerators, etc.

That is to say, Red Star Factory's electronic factory had already stood firm. The shipment volume and profit situation of electronic appliances had already not satisfied Red Star Factory's development speed in the past year.

The key to the negotiation now is, either Sanhe Stock Company continues to increase investment in Red Star Factory's electronic appliance technology, or both sides end the negotiation and part ways after completing the previous compensation trade agreement. During this period, Sanhe Stock Company still cannot prevent Red Star Factory from cooperating with other foreign enterprises to introduce advanced technology.

Kenichi Nishida, the representative of Sanhe Stock Company responsible for this negotiation, naturally could hear the requirements in Li Xuewu's words.

He naturally had the ability to refuse Li Xuewu's unreasonable requirements, or even stand up angrily, ending this negotiation and subsequent cooperation.

However, he absolutely didn't want to do this, because their layout had just begun.

Similarly, Red Star Factory's layout in the electronic appliance industry had also just begun, and it was still in time to change partners.

This is also the key means for them to clamp each other.

Kenichi Nishida didn't directly refuse Li Xuewu, but threw out two viewpoints:

First point, the electronic appliance category and scale expansion requirements currently proposed by Red Star Factory have very high requirements for technology, and also represent that the amount of compensation trade is quite high.

The meaning of this is that our technology is too valuable. If given to you, I'm afraid your compensation trade won't be able to pay it back.

Second point, he emphasized that the mainland lacks the necessary high-tech electronic industry production environment and lacks spare parts supply conditions.

Combining the above two viewpoints, Kenichi Nishida gave his own suggestion, that is, appropriately relax a certain amount of technology and categories. Specifically how much to relax and where to put it still needs detailed discussion.

It was still their commercial operation goal and psychology. Technology must never be given too much at once.

Of course, he also proposed that Red Star Factory now has its own electronic appliance research institute. They can continue to support Red Star Factory in sending engineers to Japan for investigation and study, and they are also willing to send engineers to Red Star Factory's research institute to share research experience and insights.

Pure cooperation in technology and academic exchange was the bait they laid out for Red Star Factory's intentional layout.

Once Red Star Factory agrees, they will have the opportunity to master Red Star Factory's current technical research and development progress, and further influence the research and development direction and standards of Red Star Factory's electronic appliance production.

It is realized by sending engineers to each other. This kind of commercial means is not too skilled. Currently, everyone in the international market is doing this.

But Li Xuewu didn't take this move. He welcomed technical personnel to come to the mainland for exchange and investigation on behalf of Red Star Factory, but permanent stationing was impossible.

Similarly, Red Star Factory is willing to send technical investigation and study teams, but this does not affect this cooperation negotiation.

Regarding technical leadership and high quotation, Gao Yaqin gave a positive answer. She mentioned Red Star Factory's electronic appliance research institute, and also mentioned the comprehensive cooperation framework agreement with the Santa Ya Group. Red Star Factory's technical source does not rely on anyone purely.

The meaning of this is that Sanhe Stock Company is not Red Star Factory's only choice for electronic industry cooperation.

Hearing this, Kenichi Nishida actually scolded that stupid woman Chantel in his heart. How could she dare to give anything!

The meaning given by Gao Yaqin in her reply was very clear: the technology provided by Sanhe Stock Company couldn't be expensive for many years.

Once Red Star Factory comes up with a more advanced solution than the corresponding technology, this compensation trade pricing will be automatically modified.

Therefore, the essence of technical compensation trade is the competition of technical development speed and industrial productivity.

Red Star Factory has more advanced technology to replace the production technology provided by Sanhe Stock Company, so the trade advantage naturally won't exist. They must bet on whether Red Star Factory's technical research and development can keep up with their sales layout and development speed.

Originally, the production technology they mastered must have crushed the basic situation of domestic electronic industry production, but who let a Cheng Yaojin kill out in the middle? Kenichi Nishida scolded that stupid woman Chantel in his heart again.

Regarding the mainland's electronic industry production capacity, Li Xuewu gave an answer: I didn't dare to think about it before, only relying on the electronic industry spare parts production of technology import. Since having the two great generals of the trade management center and the international industrial department, many problems have been solved.

At this time, information dissemination was underdeveloped, and the country didn't have a complete industrial production capacity bottom-investigation mechanism, which caused the situation of uneven industrial technology development and mismatch.

Even the aircraft carrier arresting cable and carbon fiber of later generations could be touched out. One can imagine the situation at this time.

Of course, Li Xuewu didn't know whether the matter of arresting cable and carbon fiber was true or false, but he knew that in this period, in this era, there were indeed many excellent technologies buried.

Because of the lack of necessary scientific research funds, many projects were stagnant, cut off, or ignored.

The trade management center issued consultation letters to all joint industrial enterprises for the technology and spare parts required by all Red Star Factory products, which was a small-scale bottom-investigation.

The result was good news one after another, not only updating the spare parts supply channel, but also providing the research institute with a large number of cooperative research channels. Many scientific research personnel entered the research institute.

Old Li was not stingy with scientific research funds, giving as much as needed. At least when Li Xuewu threw out the production technology standard of color television sets at the negotiation table, the faces of Kenichi Nishida and others were very ugly.

The production technology of color television sets is not difficult; what is difficult is mass production. The mainland had long mastered the technology, but lacked production lines.

Isn't this a coincidence? Red Star Factory already had production lines.

Now it depends on how Sanhe Stock Company chooses. Do they want to fight to the end, forcing Red Star Factory to imitate and upgrade existing television production lines with the help of the Santa Ya Group, or take the initiative to change the cooperation strategy and fully open up technical cooperation?

Red Star Factory played two cards in this negotiation, one is technology, one is cooperation.

Technology is self-owned, foreign cooperation.

These two cards are forcing Sanhe Stock Company to give up the original blockade and restrictions on Red Star Factory's technical development.

But how could Sanhe Stock Company easily give up? They reported a particularly high price for the technology and categories proposed by Red Star Factory, which was suppressing Red Star Factory's negotiation demands.

Their meaning is to improve production standards and technical cooperation scope year by year according to the corresponding plan, and cannot simply use Red Star Factory's electronic industry development as the standard for the progress of cooperation between the two sides.

Li Xuewu was also ruthless enough, really negotiating according to the quotation proposed by the other party, asking for sky-high prices, and paying back money on the ground.

But he bargained, and also proposed new requirements, that is, once Red Star Factory completes technical transcendence, the preferential policy for Sanhe Stock Company's appliance exports must be withdrawn.

That is to say, I buy your technology at a high price now, but once we replace the corresponding technology, we will set the compensation trade price. This money must be earned back from you.

This formed a gambling agreement. The bet is whether Red Star Factory's technical development can surpass Sanhe Stock Company.

Does Sanhe Stock Company dare to bet?
