327. Chapter 325 The two sides could not agree on the price



"Vice President Luo, Master Jiao, after reading so much, I have a few simple questions."

Vice President Luo made tea and said with a smile, "Boss Lin, you say."

"I wonder if these production lines can still be operated?"

Old man Jiao smoked a cigarette and said leisurely:

"There are 12 production lines in total, large and small. Ten of them are operational. We conduct test runs every year. Two of them are in trouble because the original parts are no longer available, so they cannot be operated."

“Is it possible to buy the broken parts?”

"You can't buy it, but if you have the money, you can have it custom-made. We still have the data for the broken parts, and a senior fitter can easily make it out by hand."

Lin Sanqi looked at Professor Lou, who nodded slightly. "For parts like this, you can ask Boss Cao; he can customize them."

Vice President Luo also interrupted at this time:

"Boss Lin, you don't need to look for outsiders for the broken parts. If you are really interested in purchasing them, we have craftsmen in our main factory who can make these parts and guarantee that the production line can be operated."

Lin Sanqi felt relieved. As long as the machine could start, it was at least half successful.

"Vice President Luo, if I want to produce a 750 mAh X-ray machine, do you still have the complete set of component drawings, product specifications, and other information on file?"

Old man Jiao suddenly sneered:

"Who are you looking down on? Our production lines were able to produce large 1250 mAh X-ray machines back in the day, so a mere 750 mAh X-ray is no problem at all. The information you want is all here, but our old factory only uses paper documents. If you need electronic information, ask Xiao Luo for it."

Lin Sanqi thought that paper materials were good. These materials were the instructions on how to produce, the core technology, and were far more important than the production line.

Vice President Luo also nodded and said:

"We have a very complete archive, including the original paper materials for the first 200 mAh X-ray machine produced in 1952. We even built a high-standard archive specifically for that purpose. It's in the building next door."

They all looked out the window and saw that it was a two-story building. Through the glass, they could see rows of cabinets.

"We used to have someone dedicated to maintaining these documents, but they've been neglected for over a decade. I'm sure they've gotten moldy, right? But it doesn't matter. We scanned all the information and stored it on our computers."

Lin Sanqi thought that with the production instructions, component parameters, and production line, the only thing left was whether this thing was easy to manufacture.

The manufacturing of precision instruments involves many disciplines and requires professional technical engineers and experienced workers to operate. Ordinary workers are simply not qualified for the job.

If I move the machine to 1960 and the people there don’t know how to use it, it will be a waste of effort.

"Mr. Luo, Master Jiao, let me give you an example. If I ship this batch of machines to Africa, the skilled workers there are relatively low-quality. Do you think they can use these production lines to make X-ray machines?"

Old man Jiao sneered again:

"What you're trying to produce now is the most outdated X-ray machine. Our country was able to produce it in 1952. As long as the African countries you mentioned are not primitive tribes and have regular college students, how can they not operate it? How can they not produce X-ray machines?

Back then, we were completely on our own, researching bit by bit. Now we've given them all the information and a ready-made production line. It's like having food right in front of their mouths. If they still can't make an X-ray machine, then I can only tell them not to buy it and not waste our production line."

Lin Sanqi thought, this old man has a sharp tongue, but what he said is quite reassuring.

In 1960, there were still quite a few relevant professionals in our country, including many scholars who had studied abroad. It should not be a problem for these people to understand the information and start the X-ray machine production line.

What's more, the Shanghai Precision Medical Machinery Factory itself can produce X-ray machines. Although the models are a bit outdated, the overall account can be considered to have a foundation.

Wait, isn't this "Shanghai Precision Medical Machinery Factory" the predecessor of this "Southwest Medical Equipment Factory"? That means the technical and design concepts of the two factories are the same, which should make it easier to get started.

Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi laughed. This handshake between the same factory across two eras was so interesting.

Seeing Lin Sanqi laugh, everyone started laughing too.

The people at the Southwest Medical Equipment Factory thought that this boss, who had been cheated, seemed very satisfied, so it seemed that they could raise the price appropriately.

Yin Lianyi knew Lin Sanqi quite well, and she secretly thought that these production lines would allow her boss to make a lot of money again.

Both sides have high expectations for this cooperation.

The two sides then separated, and Lin Sanqi's team discussed whether these production lines were worth purchasing and what the budget would be if they were.

The professor is a professional in this building and he gave an estimated value of 10 million RMB.

The reason is that the current market demand is unlikely to require such an outdated and primitive X model, and these production lines can no longer be restarted. This shows that the production lines of the old Neijiang factory have lost any economic value and at most have some cultural relic value.

The Southwest Medical Equipment Factory team is discussing how much they should sell their junk for.

The top management of the group offered a price of 100 million RMB, with the reason being that such a rich sucker is rare to come by in a century, so who else should they rip off?

Then this 10-fold gap suddenly brought the negotiations between the two sides to a deadlock.

Lin Sanqi is rich, but being rich is not something that can be created this way. Moreover, the money is now in Yin Lianyi's hands. The little girl strongly opposes buying a pile of scrap metal at a sky-high price of 100 million.

On the first day, the two sides failed to agree on the price, but of course the negotiations did not break down. After returning to Chengdu, the two sides continued negotiations. At this time, it was a psychological battle.

See who is more anxious.

Lin Sanqi was not in a hurry. Since he couldn't negotiate with the Southwest Factory anyway, he decided to look for such an old production line somewhere else. With two deans from Huadu Medical University around, he could find one nationwide.

Time is on his side, and another era won’t be a big deal if he waits a few more months.

So in the next few days, Lin Sanqi took Yin Lianyi and the two great professors and started a leisurely tour.

Dujiangyan, Qingcheng Mountain, Sanxingdui Museum, Giant Panda Base, seeing flowers, spicy hot pot...

Then Lin Sanqi realized for the first time that the Nine-Grid Hotpot is Chongqing hotpot, and the bottom line of Chengdu hotpot is the Mandarin Duck Hotpot. As a result, it made a group of Dongguan people who couldn't eat spicy food feel heartbroken by the spiciness.

Lin Sanqi is not in a hurry, but the Southwest Factory is. They are ready to sell a pile of scrap metal for 100 million yuan, and they can also clear out the old factory in Neijiang to prepare for the next step of real estate development.

This is a business with no capital investment. Do you really think it is so easy to make money now that you don’t even take a small goal seriously?

If a project wants to make 100 million, then the scale must be at least over 1 billion, which is a big project even in Sihai Group.

Finally, Hu Naixing, CEO of Sihai Group, personally went to Chengdu to participate in the negotiations.

In the business hall of a five-star hotel, two teams were preparing for the final negotiation. Dean Wang and Dean Lou were also present, ready to help the students stand on the stage.

Anyway, since the negotiations were unsuccessful today, a few people prepared to return to Huadu. They had played and eaten, and it was almost time to leave.

Hu Naixing, CEO of Sihai Group, and Professor Lou were both stunned when they met, and then burst into laughter, leaving everyone baffled.

It turns out that Professor Lou and Mr. Hu are old classmates.

We can only blame Vice President Luo for only saying that the chairman of Lingnan Hall came when he reported to his superiors, and did not mention that the other two deans came with him.

Vice President Luo also laughed awkwardly and said, "After all this time, we are all family, haha."

Business is all about human relationships and social conventions.

With this relationship, Lin Sanqi knew how to bargain. After all, whether it was Luo Jinyu from the Southwest Factory or Hu Naixing from the headquarters, they were all workers, just a little more senior.

Then Lin Sanqi, like a fly, will keep an eye on these eggs to see if he can save 90 million.

The negotiations hadn't even started yet, and Professor Lou waved his hand:

"Nai Xing, let's go out and have a cigarette."

"Okay, we haven't seen each other for many years. Let's all take a break first. We will officially negotiate later."

Business elites like Hu Naixing are so smart. When they found out that Lin Sanqi's position was vacant, they knew that there must be a private transaction.

He does not reject this kind of personal favor transaction. In the absence of personal favors, he must protect the interests of his company. After all, he is a professional manager and a senior executive of the company.

But if he can benefit personally, he doesn't mind betraying his boss a little.

To repeat, Sihai Group does not belong to him, Hu Naixing, but to the major shareholder, and the 100 million yuan will not go into his personal pocket.

This kind of thinking is the same as that of the Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty. It doesn't matter who becomes the emperor. The emperor must rely on this group of scholars to rule. Therefore, the Donglin Party will not blink an eye when it comes to selling the emperor.

Several emperors who fell into the water at the end of the Ming Dynasty died in unclear circumstances. (End of this chapter)
