"Is there any progress on what I asked you to do?"
Wu Changfeng lay in the hot spring, asking questions.
I don't want to stay in the island nation any longer.
Finish your business quickly so you can go home early.
Hikawa shook his head slightly in disappointment: "The president of Chidori Corporation is not home. I have already made an appointment. We can go to negotiate when he comes back."
"Approximately how long?"
Hikawa thought for a moment and said, "It might take three to five days. You can travel around the country during this time, and the time will pass quickly."
Wu Changfeng was somewhat displeased.
Ideally, we should meet tomorrow to discuss the purchase of the technology, and then I can transfer the money and leave the day after tomorrow.
It seems we'll have to wait a while longer.
Wu Changfeng said, "Alright, alright, that's the only way."
...
at this time.
Inside an office of Shimadzu Corporation in the island nation.
The sky had just begun to darken.
Two rows of people sat facing each other on either side of a huge desk.
One side consists of personnel from Shimadzu Corporation.
One side was led by Minister Xu of the Mainland Equipment Division, with Director Xu of Chicheng Plastics Company and others as assistants.
At this point, the negotiations reached a stalemate.
Minister Xu was a little tired; this job was really tough!
Minister Xu said to President Yoshida of Shimadzu Corporation, "I see no sincerity from you! You should know that we are not purchasing one or two pieces of your equipment, but dozens!"
"Please show us your sincerity and offer us a discounted price. If you maintain the current price, there's no point in negotiating further."
"After all, you're not the only company that can provide high-end plastic equipment."
Minister Xu's words were clearly threatening.
Oh shit.
We are customers! We buy in huge quantities, so what are you pretending for!
Can wholesale and retail prices be the same?
Your company, Shimadzu, is still quoting the highest price. Aren't you a bit shameless?
Factory Director Xu was furious.
So what if we don't pay you? Stop dragging your feet. If we were equipment providers, we'd be happy to have as many customers as possible.
What are you guys so arrogant about!
Factory Director Xu wanted to hit someone!
Since the beginning of the epidemic, all enterprises in Chicheng, regardless of size or whether they are local or state-owned, have been involved.
We started by implementing 6S and advanced management systems at the Chicheng Hydraulic Plant.
Other businesses, under the auspices of the municipal government, launched a large-scale learning campaign.
Apart from a few stubborn factory managers and those who were truly incompetent, the other companies began to reorganize.
In a short time.
Incompetent factory managers should be replaced immediately, and old-fashioned and rigid factory managers should be dismissed.
The businesses throughout Chicheng have been completely transformed.
Of course.
Internal discipline reforms simply make the factory more efficient and increase workers' sense of responsibility towards the company.
By weeding out the rotten parts from within, the company can have a completely new look, inside and out.
but.
This does not completely solve the problem of enterprises competing in the market.
Whether a product can succeed depends on keeping up with the times.
For example, after Xu's factory manager, Chicheng Plastics Company, received a processing order from Wu Changfeng.
Although we can produce qualified electric toothbrush shells.
But this is not a high-end technology at all; all that's needed is for the workers to be diligent and responsible.
This is also where the 6S management system is beginning to take shape.
As a factory directly under the local government, it only produces this kind of thing and has completely failed to leverage its advantages as a factory.
In other words, it still cannot afford to support a large number of workers.
What should we do then?
After careful consideration, Chicheng decided: If we're going to do it, let's do it big!
There is currently a huge demand for high-end plastics in China, but no company has yet invested in high-end plastic processing.
Simply put, this requires a large amount of funding.
Moreover, negotiations with foreign countries must be conducted at the national level.
Under this trend, the leaders of Chicheng consulted with the top leaders of Inner Mongolia.
After two days of deliberation, the top leaders and experts made a final decision: Let's do it!
The funds will come from Chicheng and Inner Mongolia.
That's certainly not enough.
Therefore, the top leader used his connections to get in touch with Yangtze Petrochemical.
Initially, Yangtze Petrochemical was not very interested in this project.
The biggest problem is that Yangtze Petrochemical is a state-owned enterprise, and any flow of funds must be reported to higher authorities.
This is a very troublesome matter.
In this era, most leaders believe that it's better to avoid trouble than to cause more.
It's best to avoid taking on too much work yourself; neither making a difference nor causing any harm is ideal.
The top leaders of Inner Mongolia were deeply puzzled by Changjiang Petrochemical's attitude.
how?
We're going to do something big together, and you're all unwilling?
What kind of attitude is this!
Although the top leader can't control Yangtze Petrochemical, he has a deep network of connections!
They went straight into the capital.
I found the bigwig behind the scenes and gave him a long introduction.
The expert gave a reply within a day: Yes.
With just one word, the top leader felt a great weight lifted from his shoulders.
This has now tied Yangtze Petrochemical to the war machine.
Despite receiving orders from above, Yangtze Petrochemical remained passive.
They stated: "I can provide the money, but we won't take responsibility for the factory site; we'll only hold shares. The rest is up to you in Inner Mongolia."
The top leader said he didn't care.
Your Changjiang Petrochemical company's lack of competitiveness and refrain from vying for resources is truly in line with your own wishes.
They decided to locate the new petrochemical plant in Akagi.
At the same time, the plastics factory in Chicheng was converted into a plastics company.
Next, the top leader authorized Director Xu to make preparations and purchase high-end plastic manufacturing equipment from the island nation.
In this process, the Equipment Division inevitably had to be involved.
