To be fair, Xu Jiaguo does have some ability.
Otherwise, Li Weiguo wouldn't have taken a liking to her.
After all, Wang Shouren had removed a significant number of management personnel from the large factory at the end of the year, and ensuring the factory's continued operation was no easy task.
The problem now is that he's lost what he needed for his life, so how is he going to explain it?
Should we go ask Li Weiguo for it?
That's nonsense.
Shen Yuanliang had already clearly told him that this thing might be in the hands of some strange department.
Go ask them for it?
It's unclear how extensive Wang Shouren's network of connections was.
At this moment, Xu Jiaguo was filled with remorse. How could he have been so blinded by greed to go after Wang Shouren?
When did it start?
Yes, ever since that time, after looking at the motorcycle factory's data, Li Weiguo frowned and said, "This factory earns a lot, but it also spends a lot..."
After that incident, Xu Jiaguo thought he had received some instructions, so he went directly to the motorcycle factory and ordered Wang Shouren to remove anything he felt was unnecessary.
Xu Jiaguo was quite pleased with himself when he saw Wang Shouren's surprise at seeing him.
Wang Shouren didn't even bother to check with the ministry before agreeing directly.
He became even more smug. In the second month of that year, after Li Weiguo looked at the data, he asked him a question.
He proudly recounted his achievements, and from that moment on, Li Weiguo's expression towards him became very strange.
He said to him meaningfully, "Well done, but you need to think things through before you act."
At that time, he thought it was just a compliment.
So...
Thinking of this, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Many things, once the arrow is released, there's no turning back.
Three days passed quickly.
After making inquiries from various sources, Xu Jiaguo discovered that there was absolutely no way to obtain it. In a secluded corner, he found a copy of the "Patent Act." After a brief glance, he knew that the so-called patent was most likely in the hands of Wang Shouren. Realizing that he had no way to get his hands on it, he lost interest in continuing.
Nobita's promise of three days meant three days; he didn't delay for a moment and immediately came to their door.
I still didn't bring a translator today.
If he fails to accomplish this, the trouble he will face will be far from simple. He has already decided that if things really don't go well, he will drag Xu Jiaguo down with him no matter what.
"Mr. Xu, how's it going? Did you get the technology?" Nobi Kurohiro was no longer polite to the guy he had leverage over. He addressed him as "Mr. Xu," but his eyes seemed to say, "Try saying no to me."
"No," Xu Jiaguo said calmly.
"Hmph." Nobita Kurohiro made a sound that was hard to understand, and slowly stood up: "In that case, we have nothing more to talk about."
“Mr. Nobi Kurohiro, I think we can still talk.” Xu Jiaguo did not get up, but continued to sit in his chair. His voice was calm, but his hand, which was lighting a cigarette, trembled slightly.
Seeing that Nobita Kurohiro showed no intention of staying.
Xu Jiaguo's voice rose a few decibels: "Mr. Nobita, you don't want all the money you've invested in China to go down the drain, do you?"
Nobita stopped in his tracks upon hearing this blatant threat, his small eyes glaring fiercely at Xu Jiaguo: "What, do you think you can just steal our money?"
"Heh, Mr. Nobita Kurohiro, what we signed was an agreement to acquire this factory. Everything in this factory belongs to us. The technology isn't included in the agreement. Otherwise, do you think a mere ten million US dollars could buy this factory? I dare say that anywhere! You think you can, Mr. Nobita Kurohiro!"
Xu Jiaguo spent three whole days preparing his story. He anticipated all of Nobita's thoughts and words, and this time, he had to seize the opportunity! Otherwise, he would really die!
Nobita stopped; those words had struck at the most nerve-wracking part of his heart.
To be honest, he didn't have a better way.
He didn't bring a scapegoat this time, so is he really going to go back and bow down?
That's inappropriate. Bowing is something you do to those below you, to the public. If you bow to those above you, do you think they would forgive you?
"Mr. Xu, do you have any ideas?"
Looking at the dog-faced fellow before him, Xu Jiaguo felt a little relieved. Did he care about tens of millions of dollars in his personal life? Honestly, probably not. But the responsibility was really weighing on him personally. Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Xu Jiaguo's face.
“Mr. Nobi, you need results, and so do I. The factory hasn’t been emptied out, and production can still continue. So, I need your cooperation.”
Xu Jiaguo knew that no one in the country had any confidence in him. He could maintain the factory's stability now, but that didn't mean he could in the future.
Foreign investment must have a purpose; it needs to be tied to its own interests.
"You mean, you can still use their engines?" Nobita asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Even now, Nobita doesn't believe that China knows anything about patents.
After all, only a small number of people within China knew about this matter, and those who did were repeatedly warned by higher-ups not to leak it out.
Everyone remained silent on this matter.
Yes, that's possible.
"Then there's no problem." Nobita Kurohiro waved his hand.
What he cared about was the technology involved; the engine had a protective device designed by Wang Shouren. They couldn't just put that device on during production, could they? He was confident that the engineers he brought could overcome this challenge. Once they solved it, it wouldn't be his problem. Besides, they could use this time to produce some motorcycles and sell them.
Whether it's shipping it out or selling it domestically, at least we should earn back that ten million US dollars, right?
Thinking this, Nobita Kurohiro smiled and said, "Well then, I think we can still cooperate."
It's done!
Xu Jiaguo breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as foreign investment remains, there shouldn't be any major problems.
As for the rest, based on the previous wage standards, the workers wouldn't care who the factory manager was.
Moreover, with one less research institute, the technical staff coming here would save him a significant amount of money. This was good news for him…
