There's one more.
He brought back a considerable amount of foreign exchange.
Everyone is hoping to get some foreign exchange, as many places still need it. Various industries, such as looms, generators, and lathes, are highly dependent on foreign exchange.
After more than a decade of planning, this is how we finally got this sales network.
This is one of the reasons why so many people admire Wang Shouren.
He has the ability to earn the respect of those in this era who are not on his side. He can use his skills to help them improve their abilities, and he can also offer benefits to build relationships. In communication, he is neither obsequious nor aloof.
It takes so long to plan a project.
Those who had no elders or family traditions of learning thought that Wang Shouren was just more technically skilled.
But actually, that's wrong, completely wrong.
Don't the higher-ups know the importance of technology?
They know.
However, everyone has their biases.
A said that development requires large-scale construction and infrastructure projects.
B said, "Let's put aside the large-scale construction and focus on weapons first."
C said that none of what you said would work, we need to develop satellites, at least to have our own pair of eyes.
Ding said that none of your things mattered; let's develop heavy industry first.
Were the four people, A, B, C, and D, wrong? They were all right, each with their own emphasis. But the problem is, there isn't enough money in China right now, so whose advice should we listen to? Which path should we take?
This is what truly impressed them about Wang Shouren.
If it weren't for the support from above, Wang Shouren really wouldn't have been able to obtain those steel resources.
Don't assume this era is the same as later times. If you want to buy things, especially basic necessities, let alone steel, even cement requires connections and back-and-forth trips, and you don't know how long you'll have to wait in line to get it. And Wang Shouren's usage of steel wasn't too large, but it wasn't too small either, plus the construction of those factory buildings and a whole host of other things.
This isn't about money at all, but about policy bias. The higher-ups are willing to allocate resources to Wang Shouren, and that's what they truly admire about him.
Not everyone can get these preferential treatments.
If this were in ancient times, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that "the emperor was pleased with the simple words."
However, Xu Jiaguo was unaware of this.
He believed that Wang Shouren was just lucky. He had good skills, but so what? After taking office, he would maintain Wang Shouren's original benefits, and then he could recruit some professors from Wudaokou or other colleges to support the factory. It wouldn't be a problem. What Wang Shouren had, he could have too.
What Wang Shouren could do, he could also do.
Based on this unfounded conjecture, he fell into Wang Shouren's trap.
This trap was not actually prepared for him, but for that group of "compradors".
However, Wang Shouren himself hadn't expected his factory to attract so much attention, and even to have so many people protecting it. This meant that what he had prepared seemed somewhat useless. After all, no one would be foolish enough to fall into such a trap.
Was his trap clever?
Not at all, it's purely a scam targeting foreigners, regardless of whether they're ordinary people or white people.
But he never expected that Xu Jiaguo would jump in.
When Wang Shouren heard Xu Jiaguo's request, for some reason, he felt like he was using a cannon to kill a mosquito. Fortunately, he also managed to get the sign from Xiao Rizi's side.
His efforts weren't entirely in vain; he managed to carve out a piece of the original sales volume of Xiao Rizi and use Xiao Rizi to draw some of the attention away from the market.
As for shutting down Xiao Rizi's factory, Wang Shouren never even considered it.
The cars from those smaller countries are truly well-developed internally. Most of them only buy domestically produced cars; it's the locals who have single-handedly built up their factories. These overseas business ventures are essentially a form of expansion. Success is good, but if they fail, they can go back, prepare, and come back again. It doesn't damage their foundation at all.
In addition, Wang Shouren's marketing activities, no matter how much he smeared Xiao Rizi in the US media, Xiao Rizi's company also gained a wave of traffic. As long as they are not too stupid and fight back, some people will believe the positive side and some people will believe the negative side. This can also be regarded as a kind of exposure. Advertisements with a storyline are much more attractive than those without a storyline.
This is one of the reasons why Xiao Rizi didn't bother Xu Jiaguo again after she went back home.
They also benefited, and as for causing trouble, they themselves knew in their hearts that this trouble was of their own making. Going further to escalate the issue and make trouble for Wang Shouren? That would be pointless.
Therefore, looking at the whole incident, there is only one person who was hurt the most, and that is Xu Jiaguo.
Oh, perhaps there's also Li Weiguo, who feels he misjudged people.
Xu Jiaguo's eyes were bloodshot and his eye sockets were slightly sunken, showing that he hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time.
He looked at Wang Shouren, and Wang Shouren looked at him. For a moment, the huge conference room fell silent.
Wang Shouren glanced at Qin Jingru, who understood immediately and turned to pour tea.
This wasn't originally her job, but she was curious and gloating, wanting to see what Xu Jiaguo had to say.
"Director Xu, what brings you here today?" Wang Shouren narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a smile that met societal expectations.
"Ha, Wang Shouren, you're quite the schemer." Xu Jiaguo's voice carried a hint of resentment. He believed that all of this was a trap set by Wang Shouren, just waiting for him to fall into it. And this scheme was completed through his repeated probing, with Wang smiling on the surface while stabbing him in the back.
"If Director Xu is just here to talk about these trivial matters, then I'm afraid I won't entertain him." Wang Shouren was too lazy to say much more to him.
Sometimes, when people have different values, you can't force them to change their mindset. No matter how much you say, you can't change their thinking.
Besides, why should Wang Shouren pay for his affairs?
"Wait!" Xu Jiaguo gritted his teeth and said, "Where did you take Yunmeng?"
"Yunmeng?" Wang Shouren was stunned. He never expected that Xu Jiaguo had come just to talk about this.
He shook his head: "It's your own wife, do you think I can tie her up? If you really think I did it, then please go and call the police."
After saying this, Wang Shouren suddenly wondered if coming to see him was a mistake.
