Hikawa-kun still couldn't figure out what Wu Changfeng was up to.
But he didn't think much of it.
Although his true intention was to prevent his own people from being scammed.
After all, Wu Changfeng is ruthless when it comes to ripping off the Japanese.
This has happened several times already.
But I really couldn't find any evidence, and I had no way to remind Xiaosong what to pay attention to.
He knew that the after-sales service for the youngest son was definitely not that simple.
However, since he was also Wu Changfeng's agent in Japan, he couldn't say this directly.
It's like a betrayal; if Wu Changfeng finds out, I won't be able to make money as an agent anymore.
We can only wait and see how things develop.
I feel powerless!
Hikawa-kun thought that Wu Changfeng's trip to the island nation would end here.
After all, if we haven't bought the technology, there's no need to stay in the island nation.
Even Nikkawa suggested that Wu Changfeng try his luck in the US and Europe.
The excavator technology in these areas is also very good.
Strictly speaking, the island nation's technology was inherited from and improved upon by these Western countries. Coupled with price wars, it forcefully brought Western equipment down from its pedestal, allowing the island nation's equipment to reach the top.
But Wu Changfeng shook his head and said, "No, I want to stay a few more days. I especially like the atmosphere of the island nation."
"ah?"
Hikawa-kun was dumbfounded again: "Mr. Wu, are you going on a trip?"
Hikawa-kun was puzzled. Wu Changfeng had been to Japan more than once or twice, and he had visited many tourist attractions that he himself hadn't had time to go to.
Wu Changfeng said, "No, I'm waiting for someone."
"From the mainland?"
Wu Changfeng nodded: "Yes, seeing that the excavator industry in the island country is so advanced, there must be something we can learn from it. Therefore, I have prepared an inspection team to come and learn."
Hikawa-kun pursed his lips, sensing that something was amiss.
What kind of tricks are they playing?
Hikawa shrugged: "Okay, if you need anything, just give me a call. I won't keep you company."
Wu Changfeng saw Rikawa off, saying, "Thank you for your help."
Hikawa waved and drove away.
Wu Changfeng returned to the hotel front desk and booked more than ten rooms.
Then he sat inside, took out his phone book, and started making calls back home.
The first call was to Fei Xiangnan.
"Brother Wu, I heard you're in Japan. How's it going?"
Upon receiving the call, Fei Xiangnan asked anxiously.
It's unknown whether Wu Changfeng's purchase of excavator technology was successful.
If successful, it will be a revolutionary change and a huge upgrade for the entire excavator industry.
Look at the excavators in your factory, they're still from the 1960s. What era are we living in now?
It's the 1990s!
Foreign excavators are starting to enter the market!
Everyone felt insecure and powerless to fight back. Of course, the government still supported domestically produced equipment.
But... it's really not as good as foreign ones.
Even if the government takes care of domestic manufacturers, how long can it do so?
If you don't strive for excellence, you'll be eliminated sooner or later.
Wu Changfeng said on the phone, "Don't even mention it, I got humiliated."
Upon hearing this, Fei Xiangnan was immediately filled with extreme disappointment: "Then... what do we do now?"
Wu Changfeng said, "I'm going to activate the second plan. Since they won't sell it to us, we'll disassemble the whole machine into parts and buy them all back from Japan!"
"What?"
Fei Xiangnan didn't understand.
Buy parts?
What does this mean?
Wu Changfeng, unwilling to explain, said, "Didn't I tell you to prepare a thousand US dollars? Bring the money and your men, and I'll tell you what to do."
"Uh~~" Fei Xiangnan was completely dumbfounded and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Could you explain it again? I'm a little confused."
Wu Changfeng said, "There's no time to explain. International calls are expensive. Just do as I say. And remember, the people you bring must be highly capable, preferably from the purchasing department."
"Don't let any administrative leaders come for tourism. This is a tough battle. They must have strong professional skills. It would be better if they could speak Japanese, and English is also acceptable."
"In short, just don't bring people who don't understand the business."
Fei Xiangnan nodded a few times: "Okay, okay, I'll set off as soon as possible."
Wu Changfeng concluded by saying, "Hurry up, I still need to contact other manufacturers, so be quick."
I hung up the phone.
Fei Xiangnan rubbed his face.
What on earth is going on here?
What the hell does "buying parts" even mean?
Could it be that they've gotten in touch with foreign parts suppliers?
That's pointless. Aren't we just becoming an assembly plant?
What happened to the promised technical skills?
He couldn't understand it at all, but Fei Xiangnan still followed Wu Changfeng's instructions and began preparing to leave for the island nation.
The news that he was going on a business trip to an island nation spread throughout the factory, much to the delight of some of the leaders and cadres.
This is the first time the factory has ever gone abroad on public funds since its establishment!
With limited spots available, everyone was scrambling to get one.
People from all walks of life—human resources, women's federation, administration, logistics, and even the cafeteria manager—signed up.
This infuriated Fei Xiangnan, who unleashed a torrent of abuse:
"Are you all blind? The notice clearly states that the purchasing staff is to go on a business trip. What kind of island nation is a head chef like you going to?!"
The chef protested: "I went there to learn about island cuisine and to provide the workers with a variety of meals. What's wrong with that?"
"Besides, what kind of procurement requires a trip to an island nation? Isn't it just an excuse to use public funds for travel? Why can't we sign up?"
Fei Xiangnan coughed repeatedly, utterly helpless against the workers' employer. He said, "We're here to purchase technology! Not for tourism, and certainly not for public spending! Get out of here!"
