Anyone who hears that Xing Baohua is going to sell goods worth ten million yuan would be shocked.
How dare this guy open his mouth? He probably doesn't know what ten million means! And he's talking about US dollars? Has he ever even seen what a US dollar looks like?
When the leader wanted another cigarette, he found it had fallen to the ground. His secretary quickly got him a cigarette and lit it again.
"Boss, how about I call him over so you can have a chat with him?" the secretary asked in a low voice.
The leader waved his hand and said to his secretary, "Call Lao Jiang over."
Before long, Director Jiang came over, his face also covered in sweat from being frightened by Xing Baohua's offer.
When you see a leader, greet them with "Leader".
Then I heard the leader say, "The Europeans said they'd invest five million in the city, didn't they?"
Director Jiang nodded and said, "It seems so."
He spoke without much conviction, but he understood the leader's meaning to some extent. No wonder the Europeans were boasting and urging him to buy electronics from the factory at low prices.
So it was just a disguised way of haggling! Even with the investment, it wouldn't be ten million.
Fortunately, when I reported this to the city government leaders, they told me to stand aside and not take any action.
Fortunately, he had only been testing the waters and hadn't made any major moves. If he had, the matter would probably have ended there.
Who would have thought that a small, run-down factory could command a staggering price of ten million US dollars! What kind of treasure is it? Or was the big boss right? That factory has something amazing, otherwise why would these foreigners come?
The deputy leader in charge of the company said, "Let's see what the Japanese have to say tomorrow. It's such a big project; no matter what, we have to find a way to make it happen. After their meeting, let's talk to Xiao first."
The secretary quickly interjected, reminding him, "Xiao Xing."
"Yes, Xiao Xing. Ask him to come over in a bit and see if there's anything else we can help with. I'll call the boss now to report," the leader said.
If it's truly a ten million dollar deal, this is a huge bombshell. If it goes through, the whole city will benefit. If it falls through, it's not a big deal, but it's worth investigating.
Find out why you failed, and you can ask for a higher price next time.
They say they won't interfere, but when it comes to transactions worth tens of millions of US dollars, how can the city not worry? The key is that it's ten million US dollars! The whole city hasn't reached that amount for several years.
Ten million would put you in the top tier in the province.
The key is that the ten million US dollars have a wide range of uses. Many companies in the city need imported equipment, and now they have the funds to purchase it.
Regardless, this is good news.
Such a happy event needs to be reported.
The maintenance team is setting up an emergency response team, ready to be on standby at any time, to identify any problems and deal with them with all its might.
The city's No. 1 government also declared: "Don't be greedy for money. Anyone who hinders the city's progress will be made a stepping stone."
He still had to report back to S; this matter was too big to ignore.
Xing Baohua was unaware that his matter was getting bigger and bigger, and he was still in talks with the motorcycle negotiation team.
Ten million US dollars? Motorcycles definitely wouldn't be happy with that! They'd need to seek an evaluation from a technical team.
Let's get an evaluation! Xing Baohua also wanted to know how much his technology was worth. The equipment and materials weren't valuable; the key was the patented technology, and there was no standard for that.
Fortunately, the motorcycle's technical team wasn't too bad; their initial estimate for the entire system was around six million US dollars.
If Xing Baohua hadn't maintained his composure, he would have agreed to sell on the spot.
This figure is an estimated price. Given the nature of motorcycle manufacturers, they'll likely negotiate further, or they might only offer the same technology, leaving the software to them. They might even develop software more advanced than Xing Baohua's.
Due to the significant price difference, the two parties have not yet reached an agreement. They will schedule another time to continue negotiations.
We haven't even talked to the Japanese yet? And now another wave of Europeans is here, the people from the romantic country of Alcatel are coming.
There were only three people.
Xing Baohua took some time to meet with the other party and arranged to conduct an inspection and discussion the day after tomorrow.
The rest of the time, they will be received by city government personnel.
This saved Xing Baohua a lot of time, and he decided to deliver learning machines to several key schools in the city after this matter was over.
You can't give them all away at once, or people will mistakenly think that Xing Baohua has made a lot of money.
In fact, as soon as Xing Baohua shouted out ten million, people thought he had made a fortune.
Cost? Who's even considered how much the cost is!
Xing Baohua calculated that this money was pure profit, after deducting the patent fees for operation. There were practically no costs left. But it depends on which account it went into.
Given this situation, it seems the city government won't approve if Xing Baohua doesn't use domestic accounts.
There's nothing we can do about it; who could have imagined it would turn into such a huge hassle? Of course, using a domestic account means no taxes and no transaction fees.
Using the US account not only incurs taxes but also incurs a transaction fee. That fee alone could build a dozen dormitories.
I just don't know why the Toshiba representatives didn't come. Otherwise, I could have asked them about memory or hard drive technology. Exchanging patents for patents isn't a bad deal.
Ericsson faces not only established brands, but also giants, none of whom are inferior to them.
Bob kept cursing Xing Baohua in the room, calling him shameless for ruining what was a perfectly good business.
Ericsson no longer has an advantage; the only way to get that equipment is at a high price.
A person exhales a breath, while a Buddha vies for a stick of incense.
Bob couldn't swallow this insult. He traveled all that way to this godforsaken place, and seeing the backward city made him furious.
They negotiated with Reading to raise prices.
Drive up the price through auctions and see who wants more. Besides Sony, which other company in China can dominate the market like Ericsson?
I won't rest until I've ruined everything for you.
