When the sales manager Xie Yujun heard this, he was delighted and quoted his own price:
"Mr. Lin, based on the discount we just offered, the price for all 2,500 machine tools in our machine tool factory is 2 billion RMB, including 15 five-axis machines."
When Lin Sanqi heard the offer, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he thought to himself that he was really showing off too much. 2 billion, not 200,000, wow.
Cai Jianzhong, Wang Yong and other senior executives of Fengtian Machine Tool were also extremely nervous because they knew that there were not many companies that could come up with 2 billion in cash at one time these days.
What's more, Lingnan Hall's main business is not the machinery industry. If it loses these 2 billion, Lingnan Hall will probably be finished.
The scene fell into an eerie silence.
Some assistants who were happily eating fruits and drinking milk tea also stopped eating and pretended to look through the documents carefully.
Lin Sanqi leaned closer to Yin Lianyi, turned off the microphone, and whispered in her ear:
"Do we have 2 billion in cash in our account?"
Yin Lianyi also replied softly: "Yes, it just so happens that last month's cash flow was not converted into foreign currency."
Almost all of Lingnan Hall’s money has been spent, and there won’t be too much cash left in the account. This is the financial principle established by Lin Sanqi.
Lin Sanqi breathed a sigh of relief. Although 2 billion yuan was a huge sum of money, these 2,500 machine tools and production lines would definitely be a gold nugget if they were moved to 1962.
And he was not planning to give it away for free in 1962. He could offer discounts and preferential treatment, but not give it away for free.
Lin Sanqi has already thought about what he wants them to exchange with him. For 2 billion RMB, he needs to exchange at least 20 billion RMB worth of things from them.
But in negotiations, you can't just take everything the other party says as the truth, even though it seems that the other party is very sincere and is willing to give away so many old production lines.
So Lin Sanqi turned on the microphone again and coughed a few times.
Cai Jianzhong and others immediately sat up straight, knowing that the sex scene was about to begin.
"A 2 billion yuan offer is a very scary amount. I only have one condition. If you agree, we can sign the contract now."
Cai Jianzhong asked with a guilty conscience, "Please speak, Mr. Lin."
"I want your five-axis machine tool manufacturing technology."
"This..." When the people from Fengtian Machine Tool heard this, they all frowned.
Lin Sanqi added:
"I can assure you that these technologies are for internal research purposes only and will never be put into production. We at Lingnan Hall will not produce machine tools, and we will not transfer these technologies to any third party. This can all be written into the contract."
Before Cai Jianzhong could answer, Li Guoliang, the head of Fengtian Machine Tool's technical center, walked up to the top and second-in-command and began whispering.
"Mr. Cai, Mr. Wang, this condition can be agreed to. Don't be afraid. Our five-axis technology can only be considered 3+2 axes at best, which is not advanced technology in the world.
Furthermore, even 3+2-axis technology isn't something a typical company can produce. Lingnan isn't a machinery manufacturer, nor are we in the same industry. Even if they wanted to produce it, it would take them at least a decade to master the five-axis technology.
As for ten years from now, perhaps Fengtian Machine Tool will be able to produce truly top-tier five-axis machine tools. Therefore, Lingnan Hall can agree to this condition. Perhaps this is just a young boss's hobby, so there's nothing to worry about."
Cai Jianzhong agreed. It took Fengtian Mechanical and Electrical 30 years to develop the five-axis machine tool.
I have no basic knowledge of Lingnan Hall, so how can it be easy to master the five-axis technology?
Even if they mastered the five-axis technology, do they really think it would make money? If it did, Fengtian Machine Tool wouldn't be in so much debt.
You have to be able to sell it. This mediocre five-axis technology actually doesn't have strong market competitiveness.
Thinking of this, Cai Jianzhong discussed it with the other members of the team, and then replied with a smile:
"After discussion, our team can agree to Mr. Lin's request. We can transfer all our technology to you. We also believe in your business reputation and will not become our competitor."
Lin Sanqi also felt relieved and thought to himself, "Oh, Motherland, I have obtained for you the machine tools and production technology that you have always dreamed of. Your life and property are all in it."
In 1959, the Cincinnati Machining Center of the United States successfully produced the world's first five-axis linkage machining center, but this was only a primary product.
The five-axis machine tool that Lin Sanqi traveled to in the past can crush the United States. By then, our military, industry, and technology will be able to completely crush the Americans.
I have made such a great contribution, so it’s not too much to ask for half of the Forbidden City, right?
"Okay, then Mr. Cai, you can draft the contract now and we can sign it at any time."
The leaders of Fengtian Machine Tool were also excited, and each of them was thinking about how to spend the money after getting it.
Pay back the money? How is that possible? Why should I pay back the debt I owed with my own strength?
That evening, Fengtian Machine Tool held a luxurious reception dinner at the most luxurious five-star hotel in Fengtian, and the people from Lingnan Hall had a great meal.
Things like abalone, lobster, and brandy are all available as if they are free.
After the dinner, each of the 12 Lingnan Hall employees received a pure gold machine tool as a souvenir.
After the cooperation ended, Yin Lianyi immediately returned to Huadu to take charge of the company.
Lin Sanqi flew directly from Fengtian to Dubai with his cousin Lin Yaliang, director of the company's security department, Lin Hai, manager of the Northeast branch, and a group of bodyguards.
In Dubai, he met up with his nineteenth uncle Lin Chengye, general manager of Huadu Construction Company's African branch, and his cousin Lin Bei, the new manager of the African branch, and went to Madagascar together.
Lin Tianhua, the general manager of Lingnan Hall and his tenth uncle, had already been waiting in Madagascar in advance.
Have you noticed that the Lingnan Hall executives, or the network of relationships surrounding Lin Sanqi, are actually relatives of the Lin family.
This is the characteristic of how southerners do business. They do not trust professional managers, but trust family members or fellow villagers more.
Lin Sanqi took his relatives and friends to Africa, one reason being of course to travel.
What many women don’t know is that men don’t actually like to travel with women. On the contrary, men prefer to play with other men because they can have fun and have a great time.
Another thing is that Lin Sanqi needs to go to Africa and put on a vest.
In the past, he was fine with his minor actions in the country, such as tuberculosis drugs and penicillin, which would not attract the attention of the relevant departments. Anyway, your company just has to pay taxes according to regulations.
But this time it was different. Lin Sanqi purchased 2,500 machine tools and dozens of second-hand production lines in one go, especially the most advanced five-axis machine tools. The nature of this matter was different.
Fengtian Mechanical and Electrical will definitely report this to their superiors, and domestic special departments will definitely keep an eye on this transaction.
If Lin Sanqi transported these machine tools to Huadu and then mysteriously disappeared, he would definitely be called in for questioning by the relevant departments and asked to explain the whereabouts of the machine tools.
The country will certainly guarantee free trade, but the premise of this trade is that you cannot engage in behavior that harms national interests. Five-axis machining centers and numerous machine tool production lines are behaviors that harm the country.
Otherwise, why would Western countries led by the United States continue to impose a five-axis blockade on us?
Therefore, Lin Sanqi had to find a foreign pseudonym and then import various domestic equipment and materials in the name of the pseudonym. This would be reasonable and legal.
Moreover, you can get a tax refund for exports, which can completely offset the shipping costs and even make a small profit.
Lin Sanqi chose and chose, and finally chose Africa.
Asia is too close, right under the rabbit's nose, and belongs to the rabbit's back garden. It would be easy for Lin Sanqi to be exposed if he wanted to cheat.
America and Europe are both the back gardens of the United States. As long as it is the territory of the United States, it is easy to be targeted by this old rogue. Moreover, the import tariffs in these places are too high, which is not in the interests of Lin Sanqi.
Therefore, Lin Sanqi wanted to choose a small country that was not of interest to any party and was not a battleground for military strategists.
It would be best if this small country is in turmoil and has no intention of running the country. It would be best if there is serious corruption in the country and the people cannot make a living.
In this way, the country's customs is useless, and the local government will not supervise a foreign-funded shell company.
In addition, this country must have a good port to facilitate Lin Sanqi to transfer large quantities of materials.
The key is that this country cannot be anti-China.
This is very important. It is well-known throughout the world that Chinese people are easy to bully and overseas Chinese are not united. Don’t say that developed countries in Europe and the United States have many discriminations against Chinese people. Look at those poor and small countries.
Just like when Chinese people go abroad, those poor and small countries will catch them and ask for tips, rummage through their suitcases at will, and even steal their belongings.
Even if it is Sawadee Ka, the so-called most friendly person to China, if you don't tip when entering the airport customs, they will lock you up in a small dark room for 24 hours before letting you out.
If Lin Sanqi chose such an ungrateful country, he would pretend that the goods he exported were seized as soon as they arrived at the port. They could find any reason, but you have to pay money before they will let you pass through customs.
The most frightening thing is that when the goods are unloaded, there are clearly 100 tons of supplies, but in the end only 10 tons are left, or the whole thing is gone, leaving you helpless.
People will say, if you have the guts, call 110.
Do you really call? And if the person who answered the phone still answered, what would you do?
So after much deliberation, Lin Sanqi finally chose Madagascar, a small African country that few Chinese people had ever heard of. (End of this chapter)
