Wu Changfeng's words startled Minister Xu, and then he was shocked!
He asked, "What do you mean by 'breaking a bone'? Does Sanyuan Company have the power to physically assault people? We have official backing."
Wu Changfeng smiled and said, "It doesn't mean it literally."
Minister Xu rolled his eyes, unable to understand the meaning behind Wu Changfeng's words, and could only drink his tea in silence.
On the other side.
The village manager went upstairs and pried open the office of the chairman of the Hitachi Group.
He reported Wu Changfeng's arrival in an almost humble tone.
The village manager was extremely careful throughout the entire process.
He was afraid that the chairman would suddenly get angry and give him a good scolding.
The chairman was digesting the report from the village manager.
His face remained calm and composed.
They've got something on us!
To be honest, the chairman was somewhat aware of the shoddy workmanship.
The chairman asked, "So, Wu Changfeng wants to use the problems at Sanyuan Company to suppress Shimadzu Company's offer?"
Manager Cunyi nodded: "If he doesn't get a satisfactory result, he may very well announce to the public that Sanyuan Company has problems with its manufacturing process."
"This problem has a wide impact, including on construction machinery. Wherever hydraulics are used, our oil tanks are handled in this way."
"Once it's exposed, it will implicate the entire group, and the stock price will..."
The chairman waved his hand, indicating that he understood and there was no need to say more.
The chairman thought for a moment and said, "Go and give him a reply. We will give him a satisfactory result, but I don't want to see any reports about the fuel tank process in any newspapers."
The village manager quickly nodded: "I will take care of it."
The chairman nodded.
The village manager walked out of the office.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead in the corridor.
Thank goodness!
The chairman did not lose his temper.
Otherwise, you'll suffer the consequences.
After returning to his office, the village manager got straight to the point: "I've already spoken with the director, and he said he'll give you a satisfactory price."
"As for the exact amount, I think you'll get the answer at the negotiating table."
The village manager's words were clearly meant to send the guests away.
Wu Changfeng could tell what was going on, and got up to leave with Minister Xu.
Minister Xu went in looking completely bewildered.
They came out looking completely bewildered.
In the taxi on his way to Shimadzu Corporation, he asked, "What exactly is going on?"
“We can get a cheaper price,” Wu Changfeng replied calmly.
Why didn't you mention how much cheaper it was?
"That was to get us out of headquarters as soon as possible and to avoid arguments. In short, the surprises are with Shimadzu Corporation, and all problems will be resolved within Shimadzu Corporation."
Minister Xu responded with an "Oh," and said, "This is to prevent the situation from escalating."
Wu Changfeng nodded in agreement.
Minister Xu then asked, puzzled, "Sanyuan Company clearly knows there's a problem with the fuel tank manufacturing process, so why hasn't it been improved?"
Wu Changfeng chuckled.
That's a long story.
There is something in the world called "craftsmanship".
The spirit of craftsmanship is considered to embody professional ethics, competence, and qualities. Its main components include dedication, meticulousness, focus, and innovation.
Many public intellectuals in China often boast about the craftsmanship spirit of the Japanese, and inspirational articles such as "The Craftsmanship Spirit of the Japanese: Focusing on One Thing for a Lifetime" are widely circulated.
This shows that the core of Japanese craftsmanship is focus! Other qualities such as dedication, meticulousness, and innovation come after focus.
So-called focus, to put it bluntly, is actually a kind of stubbornness, or as the Northeastern dialect says, "stubborn"—unable to think things through!
Even knowing that their equipment is faulty, they won't make any improvements unless they're exposed. This is the kind of craftsmanship that only island nations can achieve!
Similar incidents are not uncommon in island nations. For example, the Takata airbag problem persisted for a full ten years, the Akebono brakes problem persisted for twenty years, Kobe Steel falsified data for more than a decade, and Kobayashi Chemical falsified data for forty years!
Their dedication to counterfeiting for forty years truly embodies the spirit of Japanese craftsmanship.
Let alone forty years of counterfeiting.
How many people can do one thing properly and remain unchanged for forty years?
Feathers and horns!
But thanks to the "craftsman spirit," it is truly a persistent act of counterfeiting.
Without being publicly shamed, the island nation continues to produce according to its own established processes.
Wu Changfeng laughed and said, "As long as the problem with this hydraulic oil tank is not made public, it will not be improved until the day Sanyuan Company goes bankrupt."
Minister Xu was somewhat taken aback and shocked.
He lowered his head and thought for a while: "We can't do that. If there's a problem, we have to solve it. No technology or product can be launched with defects."
Wu Changfeng sighed, "Easier said than done."
Let alone island nations.
Even the mainland in later generations made the same mistake.
In mainland China, some merchants learned that there were problems with the products they were selling.
They either take it off the shelves or just run away.
As for a recall?
hehe.
I'll just think about it.
The money's all gone into my pocket; it would be too painful to give it back.
...
Shimadzu Corporation.
Factory Director Xu was already restless.
He led his team to Shimadzu Corporation again for negotiations.
But what negotiation skills do I know?
I kept checking my watch, wondering why Minister Xu hadn't returned yet!
